第二部分 阅读（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）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Take Tours>USA>East Coast Tours>New York,NY>2-Day Niagara Falls Tour from New York or New Jersey
This was a good tour in terms of value of money and overall experience provided. Only one negative experience is stopping at a food court at“One Niagara Welcome Center”. It is totally stealing.
I recommend this tour!
_________________________________________________________________________________
Tour guide was very helpful. However,the money charged for admission fee is way more than the actual admission cost. I was charged $109 per adult and $ 65 for kids for a family of four. This is not correct. This money should be refunded as you already charge $ 12 per day per person as the service fee.
_________________________________________________________________________________
It was my 2nd trip with Take Tours for Niagara and it was great to be back with an awesome experience. What I would like to highlight is that there should be more time given for staying after Maid of the Mist since there is a lot to walk and explore around the Niagara Falls.
_________________________________________________________________________________
Our guide Kun was great at his job. Explained all the details very well. He made sure there was plenty of time to explore all places. He gave wake up call in the morning and followed up with everyone to make sure everyone was on schedule. Restroom breaks, breakfast/ lunch/ snack/ dinner breaks planned very well. I definitely recommend this package for the price offered.
_________________________________________________________________________________
21. What does the most recent post complain about?
A. A food court. B. A tour guide.
C. The poor service. D. Extra admission fee.
22. Who is a repeat customer of Take Tours?
A. Mohit. B. Ankur. C. Bhatt. D. Uttam.
23. What's the purpose of the posts?
A. To popularize a tour route. B. To recommend a travel agent.
C. To complain about tour guides. D. To comment on travel services.

I was eleven years old when I spotted my neighbour,Julie,working in her garden. “There’s a hedge（树篱）growing over the pathway near here，"Julie said. "It's become so overgrown. I was planning to cut it back myself. Would you like to help out?"The following Sunday,we wheeled Julie's garden bin down to the hedge and reduced it.
We posted photos of our handiwork on Our Malmesbury,our local Facebook Group. One person,a wheelchair user,was so grateful that they didn't have to go on the road anymore to pass the hedge. The comments and reactions just kept on coming. The whole town of Malmesbury in Wilts hire seemed to welcome our team spirit and felt inspired to follow our lead. Many people raised their hands to volunteer and do more to keep our town tidy. This was the beginning of many community projects completed by volunteers in our community.
With many willing hands,our town has transformed. Before,the town looked a bit run-down, but now,the place looks cleaner and tidier.
When we first started,everything was done out of my parents' garage. But as time went on, donations came in from the local community. Our garage got filled up so quickly with brushes, gardening tools,and even donated power tools like leaf blowers. It got so big that we had to move this all to Julie's spare garage.
I created a Facebook page and website to support our projects. Our Facebook page‘Helping the Community of Malmesbury' currently sits at669 members and is a place for all the locals to share what litter picking and cleaning up they have been up to. When community members plan a clean-up,they can contact us via the website to access any tools and equipment they need to complete a project.
24. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. Handiwork photos. B. Amazing reactions.
C. Increasing volunteers. D. Community projects.
25. What does the underlined phrase“run-down"in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Messy. B. Ordinary. C. Deserted. D. Dynamic.
26. Which can best describe the author?
A. Pushy. B. Loyal. C. Competent. D. Careful.
27. What can we learn from the text？
A. Justice has long arms. B. One's meat is an other's poison.
C. God help those who help themselves. D. Small efforts make a big difference.
C
Chances are you can name a few animals that are facing extinction. But what about plants?With some 40% of plant species under threat of extinction—and given humankind's reliance on the plant world-one might think there'd be more urgency around protecting them. Yet in the United States,for example,plants receive less than 4% of federal funding for endangered species,despite comprising 57% of the endangered species list.
Much of mankind suffers from“plant blindness. "Defined by botanists Elisabeth Schussler and James Wandersee,plant blindness is "the inability to see or notice the plants in one's own environment, "which leads to "the inability to recognize the importance of plants in the biosphere （生物圈）and in human affairs. ”
Now a paper published by Oxford University Press might have found a cure for that. Having noticed that nature shows increased viewers' interest in the animals on the shows, the researchers set out to discover if nature documentaries could do the same for plants. For the paper，they focused on The Green Planet，the 2022 BBC plant-focused documentary narrated（解说）by Sir David Attenborough.
To figure out if the documentary engaged viewers enough to want to learn more,the researchers looked at people's online behavior around the time of the broadcast. They noted which species appeared on the show and then looked at data on Google Trends and Wikipedia page hits for those same species before and after the episodes（集）of the documentary aired. The researchers found some 28. 1% of search terms representing plants mentioned in the BBC documentary had peak popularity in the UK,measured using Google Trends,the week after the broadcast of the relevant episode. Wikipedia data showed this as well. Almost a third (31. 3%) of the Wikipedia pages related to plants mentioned in The Green Planet showed increased visits the week after the broadcast. The investigators also note that people were more likely to do online searches for plants that enjoyed more screen time on The Green Planet.
28. What problem does the author talk about in the first paragraph?
A. Mass animal extinction. B. Humans' heavy reliance on plants.
C. Sharp increase in endangered species. D. Insufficient plant conservation efforts.
29. How did the researchers evaluate the influence of The Green Planet?
A. By interviewing the viewers online.
B. By analyzing data on TV viewing habits.
C. By studying online searches of certain species.
D. By noting the number of nature documentaries aired.
30. What might be the conclusion of the research paper?
A. Screen time determines website visits.
B. Nature documentaries increase plant awareness.
C. Watching more TV will help protect biodiversity.
D. Well-made documentaries enjoy peak popularity.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. A Wild Reason to Watch More TV
B. Best-ever Documentary:The Green Planet
C. A Great Chance to Stop Wildlife Extinction
D. Most Common Phenomenon:Plant Blindness
D
Scientist Erika Nesvold once asked a company aiming to mine the moon how he planned to address risks that mining equipment might carry microbes（微生物）from Earth and pollute the moon. The response:"We'll worry about that later. "
That's an irresponsible mindset when it comes to preparing for people to live and work in space,Nesvold argues in her new book,Off-Earth. “. . . adopting a‘worry about it later’ attitude … strikes me as a path to repeating the tragedies of that history through ignorance. ”Nesvold writes.
Of f-Earth is an extension of her 2017 podcast（播客），Making New Worlds，which asked ethical（伦理的）questions about space settlement. The book takes some of the same questions and expands on them.
Most chapters start with three short scenes,usually from different time periods. A chapter outlining debates over whether to settle space at all starts by asking the reader to imagine being in the 1600s and deciding to uproot your family and head to the New World. A chapter on how land usage and ownership rights might work in space imagines a person recently freed from slavery in the U. S. South in 1865 and worrying that the new president will take back the land they finally own. The third scene is usually set in the year 2100,on a space settlement.
Then Nesvold examines how various ethical scenarios（场景）related to the chapter's theme might play out in space. She quotes experts in fields that don't often come up in space science:ethics,philosophy,law. This approach is a departure from many books about the future of life on the final frontier,forcing readers to face hard realities and possible points of friction. To have the best chance of avoiding disaster,the time to consider those questions is now,not later,even though space settlement may be decades or centuries away,Nesvold argues.
Of f-Earth should be required reading for anyone who dreams about living in space and can help make our earthbound civilizations better too.
32. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 1？
A. To clarify a concept. B. To introduce a topic.
C. To make a prediction. D. To generate a discussion.
33. What set(s)Off-Earth apart from others?
A. Its writing style. B. Its text structure.
C. Its story elements. D. Its writing techniques.
34. What's Nesvold's attitude to space settlement？
A. Cautious. B. Unclear. C. Intolerant. D. Disapproving.
35. What is the text？
A. A short story. B. A news report. C. A book review. D. A research essay.

Whether you've been teaching for years or this is your first year in the classroom,there's no doubt that finding the best strategies for school conferences can be challenging. After years of trying,I've come up with a few must-dos that have transformed my conferences. 36 !
Form a relationship with families before the conference
My number one school conference strategy starts long before the conference dates are scheduled. I make sure that I've positively connected with each student's caregivers well before they sit down with me at conference time. 37 . When caregivers gain the belief that we're on the same team and have similar goals,it opens the doors for productive and meaningful conferences.
Consistent Classroom Communication
38 . Classroom newsletters or other digital updates via educational apps really help caregivers feel informed and included. Simple as it is,this strategy brings great benefits,such as increasing the connections between home and school,giving caregivers a glimpse into daily schedules,routines,and sharing academic content and vocabulary,to name but a few.
39
With caregivers' varied schedules,commitments, other children, and transplantation constraints （限制），I love to be able to offer an alternative to in-person conferences. Offering a phone conference or Zoom conference option for caregivers opens up conferences to those that otherwise would not be able to get to school to meet in person. Involve students and caregivers in the conference process
Conferences are a time for me to share data, observations, celebrations, and goals with caregivers. 40 ! Conferences are an active conversation among all stakeholders:students, their caregivers,and their teachers.
A. But that's not all
B. The possibilities are endless
C. Offer times to support all the families
D. Expanded options for conference modes
E. They'll also make your conference a success
F. It is key to building trust for the entire school year
G. Regular,consistent correspondence is another strategy I use

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My husband Erik and I had promised the kids a Labrador puppy.
I'd seen the ad at the local hardware store. “Thirteen puppies in all,"Sally,the owner,said when I called. "There' re only three left. "I decided to take a look the next day. The boys jumped and shouted excitedly as I copied down directions and hung up the phone.
Early the next morning,still discussing names,we wound our way through the mountains to meet our family's new best friend. Our boys had simple names:Ike,Sam,Ben,and Dom,so they Preferred simple names like Rosy,too. Finally,we met the sweet little dog. "Rosy,"the boys called it softly. Our little puppy cocked her head. "She likes it,"they cheered and set about making Rosy comfortable for the long drive home. They offered her a chew toy and lifted her up so she could see out the window. They took turns holding her in their arms lovingly and offered her a snack.
Though small,Rosy grew strong and healthy beneath her shiny black coat. And,just as I'd hoped, she was a calming addition to our houseful of noisy boys. But something was wrong. “It's like she doesn't know how to play,"Sam commented one day after school. "Dogs have different personalities,just like people,"I said. "Besides,she's still very young. ""But her legs aren't very long,and one eye is smaller than the other,"Ike added,trying to make sense of why Rosy was different from other puppies he'd met.
I looked across the room to where Rosy sat between the boys. The last golden rays of autumn sunshine shone brightly on her face. Sure enough,one eye was misshapen. Not only that, it didn't glint（闪光）in the afternoon light. I drew in a breath. Rosy，our puppy with a name as short as her four little legs,was blind in one eye.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Everyone in the room became serious and sad.
Surprisingly,the boys refused to give the little puppy back.

第一节
A Field Trip
Last week, a field trip to the local park was organized by our school to help students learn more about how well our local environment has been protected. When arriving at the park, the students were divided into several groups and assigned different tasks. Some students were told to take water samples from the lake, while other students went to observe the local species. After a whole day's work, they found both the water and the local species are in good condition. Tired as all the students felt, they thought it worthwhile.
第二节
Everyone in the room became serious and sad. The boys dropped their heads, looking heartbroken. "It's unfair. "Ike cried, tears in his eyes. Yes, it was unfair to the boys. They just wanted to have a little playmate, one that could see and run as well as any other dog. I shouldn't have disappointed them in this way. But…the poor dog. Having hesitated for a little while, finally, I made a difficult decision. I walked to them, petted the dog, and then suggested giving it back and taking another healthy and lively little puppy.
Surprisingly, the boys refused to give the little puppy back. Sam held Rosy tightly in his arms and rubbed its fur. "Mommy, it's not fair for the little dog. We should do something. We should love and care for her together. " Ike looked straight into my eyes, begging to keep Rosy eagerly. The other boys joined immediately. It was then that I realized I had misunderstood them. Never had I expected my little boys had such great kindness. I was completely moved and nodded my head, "Yes, we'll keep it. "

M: But I don't know what kind of beef she needs.
W: She said she'll make some beef soup.

M: So you broke my vase while you cleaned it?
W: Not exactly. It was broken by the wind. I mean, this morning I opened the window to air the house but the wind blew the vase off the table.
Text 3
M: Why is the office filled with flowers?
W: Don't you know it's Teachers' Day today? The kids keep sending flowers, cards, and all kinds of gifts to their favorite teachers.
M: No wonder I saw flower shops crowded when I passed by.
Text 4
M: Will Day Pikey come this Saturday? My girl wants his autograph. She's bought every book he writes.
W: Yes. He'll be here. But you should contact our librarians first and fill a form in advance to get your daughter an autograph.

M: So, what about your new teacher?
W: Well, she has a completely different way of teaching. She encourages us to give our opinions all the time.
M: That's quite challenging.
W: Yep. But interesting, too.

W: Yeah, that's what the menu said. But it looks like they forgot. I'm sorry but it's no big deal. I can send it back if you want.
M: There is another problem with the chicken. Look, it's raw in the middle. I don't think I can eat it after all. And, the steak sandwich…
W: What's wrong with it?
M: The meat is overcooked. I asked for rare, but the steak is well-done. I guess you messed up my order.

M: Go ahead.

M: Samsung. But Samsung is also the most expensive brand. I guess that's why it's the best.
W: Which brand do you think is the worst? And which is the most popular with young people?
M: LG is the worst. I really can't remember using any of their products that I liked. And Sony, I think, is the most popular with us young people.
W: Now something about brand loyalty. Will you stick to a brand long?
M: Not exactly. I often switch to different brands. You know, when you' re shopping online, it's convenient to compare and choose the most suitable for you.
W: Why do you switch to a new brand?
M: For many reasons but price is at the top of the list. Availability is another factor. If a brand is often out of stock, I have to switch to another brand.

W: So, you started performing over thirty years ago.
M: Yes. I was born in Oakland, but was raised where I'm living now, up around Grass Valley. I came back to San Francisco to college in 1964, but dropped out a year later.
W: Why did you drop out of college?
M: My mother died of cancer. If she hadn't been ill, I probably would have stayed in school. But I think dropping out of school was actually a good thing because of the training I got, on-the-job training.
W: Let's get back to Raphael, your teacher. Tell me something about him.
M: When I met him first, I was in awe of him. Not only was he an incredible jazz musician but he knew the tradition and played all the instruments, too. In any musical tradition some people will get locked into a narrow view of the music, but he was open to everything. I think that went into me. It led to my getting into a Chinese music group called The Flowing Stream.

Wanda, who was born in Gurabo, Puerto Rico, is a great astronomer. She spent her childhood and teenage years fascinated by science and wanting to become a doctor, because' that was the way she thought she used science'. Until one day at university, when a friend knocked her completely off course. This friend played her a recording of a sunburst. This inspired Wanda to study astronomy.
Wanda started to lose her sight when she was a teenager. She lost her sight completely while studying for a degree in physics at the University of Puerto Rico. As her vision got worse, she was forced to make a decision: quit, or keep going. She chose to stick to her study. She repeated classes until she got her degree. It took her six years.
Unable to study data the way she had in the past, she realized visual scientific data could be translated into sound.

Take Tours>USA>East Coast Tours>New York,NY>2-Day Niagara Falls Tour from New York or New Jersey
This was a good tour in terms of value of money and overall experience provided. Only one negative experience is stopping at a food court at“One Niagara Welcome Center”. It is totally stealing.
I recommend this tour!
_________________________________________________________________________________
Tour guide was very helpful. However,the money charged for admission fee is way more than the actual admission cost. I was charged $109 per adult and $ 65 for kids for a family of four. This is not correct. This money should be refunded as you already charge $ 12 per day per person as the service fee.
_________________________________________________________________________________
It was my 2nd trip with Take Tours for Niagara and it was great to be back with an awesome experience. What I would like to highlight is that there should be more time given for staying after Maid of the Mist since there is a lot to walk and explore around the Niagara Falls.
_________________________________________________________________________________
Our guide Kun was great at his job. Explained all the details very well. He made sure there was plenty of time to explore all places. He gave wake up call in the morning and followed up with everyone to make sure everyone was on schedule. Restroom breaks, breakfast/ lunch/ snack/ dinner breaks planned very well. I definitely recommend this package for the price offered.
_________________________________________________________________________________
21. What does the most recent post complain about?
A. A food court. B. A tour guide.
C. The poor service. D. Extra admission fee.
22. Who is a repeat customer of Take Tours?

23. What's the purpose of the posts?
A. To popularize a tour route. B. To recommend a travel agent.
C. To complain about tour guides. D. To comment on travel services.

I was eleven years old when I spotted my neighbour,Julie,working in her garden. “There’s a hedge（树篱）growing over the pathway near here，"Julie said. "It's become so overgrown. I was planning to cut it back myself. Would you like to help out?"The following Sunday,we wheeled Julie's garden bin down to the hedge and reduced it.
We posted photos of our handiwork on Our Malmesbury,our local Facebook Group. One person,a wheelchair user,was so grateful that they didn't have to go on the road anymore to pass the hedge. The comments and reactions just kept on coming. The whole town of Malmesbury in Wilts hire seemed to welcome our team spirit and felt inspired to follow our lead. Many people raised their hands to volunteer and do more to keep our town tidy. This was the beginning of many community projects completed by volunteers in our community.
With many willing hands,our town has transformed. Before,the town looked a bit run-down, but now,the place looks cleaner and tidier.
When we first started,everything was done out of my parents' garage. But as time went on, donations came in from the local community. Our garage got filled up so quickly with brushes, gardening tools,and even donated power tools like leaf blowers. It got so big that we had to move this all to Julie's spare garage.
I created a Facebook page and website to support our projects. Our Facebook page‘Helping the Community of Malmesbury' currently sits at669 members and is a place for all the locals to share what litter picking and cleaning up they have been up to. When community members plan a clean-up,they can contact us via the website to access any tools and equipment they need to complete a project.
24. What does paragraph 2 mainly talk about?
A. Handiwork photos. B. Amazing reactions.
C. Increasing volunteers. D. Community projects.
25. What does the underlined phrase“run-down"in paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Messy. B. Ordinary. C. Deserted. D. Dynamic.
26. Which can best describe the author?
A. Pushy. B. Loyal. C. Competent. D. Careful.
27. What can we learn from the text？
A. Justice has long arms. B. One's meat is an other's poison.
C. God help those who help themselves. D. Small efforts make a big difference.

Chances are you can name a few animals that are facing extinction. But what about plants?With some 40% of plant species under threat of extinction—and given humankind's reliance on the plant world-one might think there'd be more urgency around protecting them. Yet in the United States,for example,plants receive less than 4% of federal funding for endangered species,despite comprising 57% of the endangered species list.
Much of mankind suffers from“plant blindness. "Defined by botanists Elisabeth Schussler and James Wandersee,plant blindness is "the inability to see or notice the plants in one's own environment, "which leads to "the inability to recognize the importance of plants in the biosphere （生物圈）and in human affairs. ”
Now a paper published by Oxford University Press might have found a cure for that. Having noticed that nature shows increased viewers' interest in the animals on the shows, the researchers set out to discover if nature documentaries could do the same for plants. For the paper，they focused on The Green Planet，the 2022 BBC plant-focused documentary narrated（解说）by Sir David Attenborough.
To figure out if the documentary engaged viewers enough to want to learn more,the researchers looked at people's online behavior around the time of the broadcast. They noted which species appeared on the show and then looked at data on Google Trends and Wikipedia page hits for those same species before and after the episodes（集）of the documentary aired. The researchers found some 28. 1% of search terms representing plants mentioned in the BBC documentary had peak popularity in the UK,measured using Google Trends,the week after the broadcast of the relevant episode. Wikipedia data showed this as well. Almost a third (31. 3%) of the Wikipedia pages related to plants mentioned in The Green Planet showed increased visits the week after the broadcast. The investigators also note that people were more likely to do online searches for plants that enjoyed more screen time on The Green Planet.
28. What problem does the author talk about in the first paragraph?
A. Mass animal extinction. B. Humans' heavy reliance on plants.
C. Sharp increase in endangered species. D. Insufficient plant conservation efforts.
29. How did the researchers evaluate the influence of The Green Planet?
A. By interviewing the viewers online.
B. By analyzing data on TV viewing habits.
C. By studying online searches of certain species.
D. By noting the number of nature documentaries aired.
30. What might be the conclusion of the research paper?
A. Screen time determines website visits.
B. Nature documentaries increase plant awareness.
C. Watching more TV will help protect biodiversity.
D. Well-made documentaries enjoy peak popularity.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. A Wild Reason to Watch More TV
B. Best-ever Documentary:The Green Planet
C. A Great Chance to Stop Wildlife Extinction
D. Most Common Phenomenon:Plant Blindness
D
Scientist Erika Nesvold once asked a company aiming to mine the moon how he planned to address risks that mining equipment might carry microbes（微生物）from Earth and pollute the moon. The response:"We'll worry about that later. "
That's an irresponsible mindset when it comes to preparing for people to live and work in space,Nesvold argues in her new book,Off-Earth. “. . . adopting a‘worry about it later’ attitude … strikes me as a path to repeating the tragedies of that history through ignorance. ”Nesvold writes.
Of f-Earth is an extension of her 2017 podcast（播客），Making New Worlds，which asked ethical（伦理的）questions about space settlement. The book takes some of the same questions and expands on them.
Most chapters start with three short scenes,usually from different time periods. A chapter outlining debates over whether to settle space at all starts by asking the reader to imagine being in the 1600s and deciding to uproot your family and head to the New World. A chapter on how land usage and ownership rights might work in space imagines a person recently freed from slavery in the U. S. South in 1865 and worrying that the new president will take back the land they finally own. The third scene is usually set in the year 2100,on a space settlement.
Then Nesvold examines how various ethical scenarios（场景）related to the chapter's theme might play out in space. She quotes experts in fields that don't often come up in space science:ethics,philosophy,law. This approach is a departure from many books about the future of life on the final frontier,forcing readers to face hard realities and possible points of friction. To have the best chance of avoiding disaster,the time to consider those questions is now,not later,even though space settlement may be decades or centuries away,Nesvold argues.
Of f-Earth should be required reading for anyone who dreams about living in space and can help make our earthbound civilizations better too.
32. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 1？
A. To clarify a concept. B. To introduce a topic.
C. To make a prediction. D. To generate a discussion.
33. What set(s)Off-Earth apart from others?
A. Its writing style. B. Its text structure.
C. Its story elements. D. Its writing techniques.
34. What's Nesvold's attitude to space settlement？
A. Cautious. B. Unclear. C. Intolerant. D. Disapproving.
35. What is the text？
A. A short story. B. A news report. C. A book review. D. A research essay.

Whether you've been teaching for years or this is your first year in the classroom,there's no doubt that finding the best strategies for school conferences can be challenging. After years of trying,I've come up with a few must-dos that have transformed my conferences. 36 !
Form a relationship with families before the conference
My number one school conference strategy starts long before the conference dates are scheduled. I make sure that I've positively connected with each student's caregivers well before they sit down with me at conference time. 37 . When caregivers gain the belief that we're on the same team and have similar goals,it opens the doors for productive and meaningful conferences.
Consistent Classroom Communication
38 . Classroom newsletters or other digital updates via educational apps really help caregivers feel informed and included. Simple as it is,this strategy brings great benefits,such as increasing the connections between home and school,giving caregivers a glimpse into daily schedules,routines,and sharing academic content and vocabulary,to name but a few.
39
With caregivers' varied schedules,commitments, other children, and transplantation constraints （限制），I love to be able to offer an alternative to in-person conferences. Offering a phone conference or Zoom conference option for caregivers opens up conferences to those that otherwise would not be able to get to school to meet in person. Involve students and caregivers in the conference process
Conferences are a time for me to share data, observations, celebrations, and goals with caregivers. 40 ! Conferences are an active conversation among all stakeholders:students, their caregivers,and their teachers.
A. But that's not all
B. The possibilities are endless
C. Offer times to support all the families
D. Expanded options for conference modes
E. They'll also make your conference a success
F. It is key to building trust for the entire school year
G. Regular,consistent correspondence is another strategy I use

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My husband Erik and I had promised the kids a Labrador puppy.
I'd seen the ad at the local hardware store. “Thirteen puppies in all,"Sally,the owner,said when I called. "There' re only three left. "I decided to take a look the next day. The boys jumped and shouted excitedly as I copied down directions and hung up the phone.
Early the next morning,still discussing names,we wound our way through the mountains to meet our family's new best friend. Our boys had simple names:Ike,Sam,Ben,and Dom,so they Preferred simple names like Rosy,too. Finally,we met the sweet little dog. "Rosy,"the boys called it softly. Our little puppy cocked her head. "She likes it,"they cheered and set about making Rosy comfortable for the long drive home. They offered her a chew toy and lifted her up so she could see out the window. They took turns holding her in their arms lovingly and offered her a snack.
Though small,Rosy grew strong and healthy beneath her shiny black coat. And,just as I'd hoped, she was a calming addition to our houseful of noisy boys. But something was wrong. “It's like she doesn't know how to play,"Sam commented one day after school. "Dogs have different personalities,just like people,"I said. "Besides,she's still very young. ""But her legs aren't very long,and one eye is smaller than the other,"Ike added,trying to make sense of why Rosy was different from other puppies he'd met.
I looked across the room to where Rosy sat between the boys. The last golden rays of autumn sunshine shone brightly on her face. Sure enough,one eye was misshapen. Not only that, it didn't glint（闪光）in the afternoon light. I drew in a breath. Rosy，our puppy with a name as short as her four little legs,was blind in one eye.

第一节
A Field Trip
Last week, a field trip to the local park was organized by our school to help students learn more about how well our local environment has been protected. When arriving at the park, the students were divided into several groups and assigned different tasks. Some students were told to take water samples from the lake, while other students went to observe the local species. After a whole day's work, they found both the water and the local species are in good condition. Tired as all the students felt, they thought it worthwhile.
第二节
Everyone in the room became serious and sad. The boys dropped their heads, looking heartbroken. "It's unfair. "Ike cried, tears in his eyes. Yes, it was unfair to the boys. They just wanted to have a little playmate, one that could see and run as well as any other dog. I shouldn't have disappointed them in this way. But…the poor dog. Having hesitated for a little while, finally, I made a difficult decision. I walked to them, petted the dog, and then suggested giving it back and taking another healthy and lively little puppy.
Surprisingly, the boys refused to give the little puppy back. Sam held Rosy tightly in his arms and rubbed its fur. "Mommy, it's not fair for the little dog. We should do something. We should love and care for her together. " Ike looked straight into my eyes, begging to keep Rosy eagerly. The other boys joined immediately. It was then that I realized I had misunderstood them. Never had I expected my little boys had such great kindness. I was completely moved and nodded my head, "Yes, we'll keep it. "

M: Why is the office filled with flowers?
W: Don't you know it's Teachers' Day today? The kids keep sending flowers, cards, and all kinds of gifts to their favorite teachers.

M: Will Day Pikey come this Saturday? My girl wants his autograph. She's bought every book he writes.

W: Yep. But interesting, too.

W: What can I do for you, sir?
M: Your chicken burger looks delicious. But isn't it supposed to have pineapple? I don't see any pineapple on it.
W: Yeah, that's what the menu said. But it looks like they forgot. I'm sorry but it's no big deal. I can send it back if you want.
M: There is another problem with the chicken. Look, it's raw in the middle. I don't think I can eat it after all. And, the steak sandwich…
W: What's wrong with it?
M: The meat is overcooked. I asked for rare, but the steak is well-done. I guess you messed up my order.

M: LG is the worst. I really can't remember using any of their products that I liked. And Sony, I think, is the most popular with us young people.
W: Now something about brand loyalty. Will you stick to a brand long?
M: Not exactly. I often switch to different brands. You know, when you' re shopping online, it's convenient to compare and choose the most suitable for you.
W: Why do you switch to a new brand?
M: For many reasons but price is at the top of the list. Availability is another factor. If a brand is often out of stock, I have to switch to another brand.

W: So, you started performing over thirty years ago.
M: Yes. I was born in Oakland, but was raised where I'm living now, up around Grass Valley. I came back to San Francisco to college in 1964, but dropped out a year later.
W: Why did you drop out of college?
M: My mother died of cancer. If she hadn't been ill, I probably would have stayed in school. But I think dropping out of school was actually a good thing because of the training I got, on-the-job training.
W: Let's get back to Raphael, your teacher. Tell me something about him.
M: When I met him first, I was in awe of him. Not only was he an incredible jazz musician but he knew the tradition and played all the instruments, too. In any musical tradition some people will get locked into a narrow view of the music, but he was open to everything. I think that went into me. It led to my getting into a Chinese music group called The Flowing Stream.

Wanda, who was born in Gurabo, Puerto Rico, is a great astronomer. She spent her childhood and teenage years fascinated by science and wanting to become a doctor, because' that was the way she thought she used science'. Until one day at university, when a friend knocked her completely off course. This friend played her a recording of a sunburst. This inspired Wanda to study astronomy.

As her vision got worse, she was forced to make a decision: quit, or keep going. She chose to stick to her study. She repeated classes until she got her degree. It took her six years.
Unable to study data the way she had in the past, she realized visual scientific data could be translated into sound. She created a special software to change visual data into sound, so that they can be heard instead of being read. Because of this discovery, she can do research at the same advanced level as before losing her eyesight.
Wanda currently works in Italy. She has previously worked as a researcher in Japan, South Africa and the USA.
