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和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Skip the West End and discover some exciting, theatrical treasures—maybe in a pub or under a railway station—in one of London’s many alternative theatres. If you want to experience the glorious rush of discovering a five-star show in a 50-capacity auditorium, for a £ 10 ticket, off-West End is the way to go.
Theatre 503
Through the always-buzzing Latchmere Pub, up a very narrow staircase, and beyond a dinky foyer(门厅), you will find yourself at Theatre 503. It can hold 63 people at a time, which is a tight squeeze even then. But it’ s well worth the intimacy(亲密感) that you’ll necessarily share with your neighbour for the outstanding productions.
King’s Head Theatre
Perhaps the perfect example of London pub theatre, the King’s Head has been in business since the 1970s. The King’s Head is consistent only in its stubborn refusal to be pigeonholed or, indeed to be made into anything else. It feels like London theatre’s uncle who still wears ripped jeans and listens to cool music, refusing to give up its idealistic integrity for something perhaps more sensible but far less fun.
Soho Theatre
An institution that hardly needs introducing, Soho Theatre has been at the forefront for new writing and comedy for decades, producing some of the most exciting new talent on the scene today. As the name suggests, the theatre sits in the centre of Soho, and its bar has become a hub for artists and audiences alike.
Vaults Theatre
A truly unique place made up of eleven disused train tunnels below Waterloo station, with an atmosphere all of its own. Not only is Vaults Theatre home to some of the most thrilling immersive and alternative theatre, it’s also leading the way in accessibility, offering a pay-what-you-can ticket price on Wednesdays and Sundays as of Autumn 2022.
21. What is mentioned about Theatre 503?
A. Its creator. B. Its history. C. Its capacity. D. Its popularity.
22. What does King’s Head Theatre feature?
A. Keeping itself. B. Reasonable price.
C. Being more sensible. D. Beauty in appearance.
23. Which of the following made use of abandoned railways?
A. Theatre 503. B. King’s Head Theatre.
C. Soho Theatre. D. Vaults Theatre.
B
Gary McKee, a 53-year-old from England, completed a challenge that many might never dare to try—365 marathons in 365 days.
In 1997, McKee found his father had cancer—which was disastrous for his family. "One word sort of turned our world upside down,” McKee told Fox News Digital of the impact on his family. After losing his father in 2003, McKee wanted to do something in memory of him, which is why he took the challenge to run 365 marathons in 365 days. He became a fundraiser for Macmillan Cancer Support. His goal was to raise about $1.2 million by the end of that year.
On January 1st, 2022, the challenge officially began—and McKee was on his way to running 9, 563 miles. “There was always an air of excitement because you didn’t know who was going to be outside running with you,” McKee said. He would run his course each morning before going to work starting at 8 a. m. Then, halfway through the year, a previous injury started to bother him, so he had to change his start time to 6 a. m. to manage his pace. While the injury could have dampened his spirits, he said he saw the slower pace as a “blessing”, as it allowed more people to run alongside him.
“People will often challenge, ‘How are you going to do that?’ What they mean is they don’t believe that you can. My question then is, ‘How am I not going to do it? You tell me why you think I can’t.’ There is always more reason to do something than there is not to do it. “His entire community supported him for the full year by either joining him on the road or cheering him on from the sidelines. However, it was his family’s support that encouraged him the most and helped him “rest easy”.
By the time Gary McKee got to the end of his run, he had raised over $1 million.
24. Why did Gary McKee start the marathons?
A. To honour his father. B. To raise money for the poor.
C. To keep a healthy body. D. To found Macmillan Cancer Support.
25. Why did Gary McKee adjust his start time?
A. Because he wanted more people to join him.
B. Because he was influenced by his old injury.
C. Because he expected to run a longer distance.
D. Because he wanted to balance his work time and running.
26. What can we learn from the words of Gary McKee in paragraph 4?
A. He was always confident about himself.
B. He thought others’ question was reasonable.
C. He thought everyone could achieve their goals.
D. He wasn’t accustomed to following others’ advice.
27. Which word can best describe Gary McKee?
A. Independent. B. Humorous.
C. Caring. D. Determined.
C
Music lovers are overjoyed! In order to save the live music industry in the UK, the Music Venue Trust (MVT) has been raising money to buy nine properties of grassroots music venues across the country and protect their future.
In the last 20 years, 35% of grassroots music venues have had to close, and in 2023, one music venue is having to shut down every week. While a giant £3. 6 million was put into the grassroots music industry during lockdown as part of the Cultural Recovery Fund, 67% of that was paid directly to landlords.
With rents rising, and landlords getting bigger and better offers from developers, music venues are in an incredibly sensitive position. MVT reports that around 93% currently only have 18 months left on their tenancies.
“The people who own the buildings in which music is played and enjoyed are committed more to profitability than supporting the business,” says Mark Davyd, CEO and founder of MVT. “Unfair rent rises can make previously practicable venues suddenly unsustainable, while venues in property hotspots find themselves driven out to make way for building flats. Short leases (租约) prevent those venues which want to raise funds to improve facilities and make the possibility of government support less likely.
MVT has a solution: Put the properties in the hands of the people who truly love them. Their campaign, “Own Our Venues”, seeks to buy up venue properties, offering shares to musicians and music lovers who want to see these venues thrive(繁荣). Davyd believes this is the most important contribution they can make to the industry. “The best people to own our venues are the people who love them, need them and use them.”
MVT hopes to remind people how important grassroots music venues are to the community. With the UK music industry worth over £5.8 billion, these venues are vital to the development of new and upcoming musicians, and music lovers alike.
28. Why does the Music Venue Trust buy properties of grassroots music venues?
A. To make way for flats. B. To help live music develop.
C. To attract more music lovers. D. To popularize grassroots music.
29. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The worth of grassroots music venues.
B. The high rent for grassroots music venues.
C. The challenges grassroots music venues face.
D. The investment grassroots music venues need.
30. What does Mark Davyd mainly talk about in paragraph 4?
A. The profit that the building owners make.
B. The possible results of the failure of grassroots music venues.
C. The government’s attitude towards grassroots music venues.
D. The reasons for grassroots music venues’ failure to sustain.
31. How will MVT address the problem of grassroots music venues?
A. By buying a few shares of the music venues.
B. By letting music lovers own the venues.
C. By offering shares to the owner of the venues.
D. By putting the venues in the hands of the government.
D
Most animals can quickly transition from walking to jumping to crawling to swimming if needed without making major adjustments. Most robots cannot. But researchers at Carnegie Mellon University have created soft robots that can seamlessly shift from walking to swimming or crawling to rolling.
“We were inspired by nature to develop a robot that can perform different tasks and adapt to its environment without adding actuators(执行器) or complexity,” said Carmel Majdi, a professor in the Mechanical Engineering Department in CMU’s College of Engineering. “Our bistable(双稳态) actuator is simple, stable and durable, and lays the foundation for future work on dynamic, reconfigurable soft robotics.”
Matching how animals transition from walking to swimming to crawling to jumping is a big challenge for bio-inspired and soft robotics. For example, one robot the team created has four curved actuators attached to the corners of a cellphone-sized body made of two bistable actuators.
On land, the curved actuators act as legs, allowing the robot to walk. In the water, the bistable actuators change the robot’s shape, putting the curved actuators in an ideal position to act as propellers so it can swim.
“You need to have legs to walk on land, and you need to have a propeller to swim in the water. Building a robot with separate systems designed for each environment adds complexity and weight,” said Majidi. “We use the same system for both environments to create an efficient robot.”
The team created two other robots: one that can crawl and jump, and one inspired by caterpillars and pill bugs that can crawl and roll. The actuators require only a hundred millisecond of electrical charge to change their shape, and they are durable.
In the future, the robots could be used in rescue situations or to interact with sea animals or coral. Using heat-activated springs in the actuators could open up applications in environmental monitoring, haptics(触觉). and reconfigurable electronics and communication.
32. Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “seamlessly” in paragraph 1?
A. Theoretically. B. Formally.
C. Perfectly. D. Vividly.
33. How does Majidi sound when speaking of their actuator?
A. Curious. B. Proud. C. Anxious. D. Careful.
34. What may the robots be applied to in the future?
A. Searching for lost items.
B. Competing with human labors.
C. Making heat-activated springs.
D. Connecting with marine animals.
35. What’s the best title for the text?
A. Soft robot shifts from land to sea with ease.
B. Bistable actuator is simple, stable and durable.
C. A system creates an efficient robot for land and sea.
D. Transition from walking to swimming is a grand challenge.

The cost-of-living crisis will hit us hard with rising energy prices and increasing costs. 36 Here’s how your community could help you cope.
Accountability (责任心)
The cost-of-living crisis will force us all to prioritize what we spend money on. 37 If you need more discipline in this area, a responsible partner or group might be the answer. According to productivity experts, you are more likely to stay responsible for your goals if you know you have to periodically check in with another person.
Item exchanging
We generally tend to spend more in the cold months. And when you have an entire household of people to provide for, the cost can quickly add up. So imagine how much money you could save by acquiring some items without spending an extra penny. Don’t be shy about asking those you are closest to if they have an extra blanket they no longer use, or a toy they are about to get rid of. 38 Besides, you’ll be offering something in return.
Information sharing
39 You might not inherit(继承) a pair of shoes or a cardigan, but you could get essential money-saving advice. From the latest government support available to where to shop for reduced items, those in your community may hold the key to crucial financial help. This is why it will be important for you to voice your needs.
Cooking together
Banding with your closest friends or neighbors to prepare and share meals works well for small communities. That’s not to say you have to be at each other’s houses for dinner every night. You can simply batch cook, divide the food into portions and meet weekly to exchange meals. In this case, you stand to save money and minimize waste in the long run. 40
A. It’s also a lot of fun.
B. The worst they can do is say “no”.
C. However, things aren’t totally hopeless.
D. The best thing about a community is the wealth of knowledge.
E. Many people are struggling with increasingly high costs of living.
F. However, exchanging things they no longer need will occupy lots of your space.
G. As prices increase, keeping more of our cash for the bare necessities will become vital.

John decided to go skiing with his friend, Keith. So they loaded up John’s car and headed north. After driving for a few hours, they got caught in a terrible snowstorm. The snow was falling harder and harder and it was more and more difficult to go on driving. So they decided to look for a house along the way to protect themselves from the heavy snow. At last they saw a small farm in front of them. Thus they pulled into the farm and asked the middle-aged lady who answered the door if they could spend the night in her house.
“I realize it’s terrible weather out there but I have this house only big enough for my five children, and I have no spare room for you,” she explained. “I’m afraid that I can’t offer you a comfortable place to spend the night and you have to continue to look for your shelter.”
John and Keith felt disappointed. It was late and they were not sure of finding a safe shelter for the night. They didn’t know what they should do next. John looked at Keith, who kept silent. Just then, he looked around and found an empty storehouse in the yard. An idea struck him. He was determined to beg the lady to permit them to stay in the storehouse.
“Don’t worry,” John said. “We’ll be happy to sleep in the storehouse. And if the weather breaks, we’ll be gone at first light.” The lady agreed, and the two men found their way to the storehouse and settled in for the night.
But there was little furniture in the storehouse, and it was such freezing weather. They were trembling with cold and they might be most likely to freeze at night. It seemed that they would have to sleep in their clothes. Just then, three children walked into the storehouse, with something in their hands.
注意：1.续写词数应为150个左右；

W: Valerie Jane Morris-Goodall was born on April 3rd, 1934, in the United Kingdom’s capital city, London. Jane Goodall is an expert on wild chimpanzees. Recognized for her groundbreaking discoveries about their behavior—she discovered that chimpanzees make tools, hunt for meat and eat it, and have similar social behavior to humans—she completely transformed our understanding of our closest relative in the animal kingdom. Goodall’s fascination with animal behavior began in early childhood. In her leisure time, she observed native birds and animals, making extensive notes and sketches, and read widely in the literature of zoology. When she was about a year old, her father gave her a toy chimpanzee called Jubilee. The toy had been made to celebrate London Zoo’s first chimpanzee birth in captivity. At the age of five, she went missing in Folkestone and a search was started for her. When she was eventually found, it turned out that she had been sitting for several hours in the hen house. She had wanted to find out how chickens laid eggs and had sat waiting for one to come into the hen house so she could see for herself how it actually happened.

Dear Cara,
How are you doing? Knowing that you take great interest in Chinese traditional culture, I am writing to invite you to pay a visit to the local cultural ancient street this weekend.
We’ll meet at 8:00 on Sunday morning at the school gate. Then we can take a bus to get there because the street is located a little far away. We’ll rent some traditional clothes and take some photos. After that, we will enjoy some ancient things, such as trying Luban Lock.
I am looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

One possible version:
It turned out that they came to help John and Keith go through the freezing night. One of the children carried a stove, another carried a large bundle of firewood, and the third took some bedclothes with him. It was a great surprise for both John and Keith. The children lit the wood in the stove and the room became warm at once. The two men hurriedly made the bed. Now they could enjoy a warm and comfortable night. They were even more touched when the lady brought them a hot meal to eat a moment later.
Waking up the next day, John and Keith found their door blocked by heavy snow. They tried their best to force the door open, only to find that thick snow had covered everywhere in the yard, including the roof of the house where the family lived, and it seemed that it was in a bad situation. Seeing that, John and Keith took some tools to clear the snow with that family. After about an hour, they cleared all the snow. The lady thanked them, saying that they had done a great favor for her and that without their help, the house might not stand the snow. They just smiled, saying “You help yourself.”

A
Skip the West End and discover some exciting, theatrical treasures—maybe in a pub or under a railway station—in one of London’s many alternative theatres. If you want to experience the glorious rush of discovering a five-star show in a 50-capacity auditorium, for a £ 10 ticket, off-West End is the way to go.
Theatre 503
Through the always-buzzing Latchmere Pub, up a very narrow staircase, and beyond a dinky foyer(门厅), you will find yourself at Theatre 503. It can hold 63 people at a time, which is a tight squeeze even then. But it’ s well worth the intimacy(亲密感) that you’ll necessarily share with your neighbour for the outstanding productions.
King’s Head Theatre
Perhaps the perfect example of London pub theatre, the King’s Head has been in business since the 1970s. The King’s Head is consistent only in its stubborn refusal to be pigeonholed or, indeed to be made into anything else. It feels like London theatre’s uncle who still wears ripped jeans and listens to cool music, refusing to give up its idealistic integrity for something perhaps more sensible but far less fun.
Soho Theatre
An institution that hardly needs introducing, Soho Theatre has been at the forefront for new writing and comedy for decades, producing some of the most exciting new talent on the scene today. As the name suggests, the theatre sits in the centre of Soho, and its bar has become a hub for artists and audiences alike.
Vaults Theatre
A truly unique place made up of eleven disused train tunnels below Waterloo station, with an atmosphere all of its own. Not only is Vaults Theatre home to some of the most thrilling immersive and alternative theatre, it’s also leading the way in accessibility, offering a pay-what-you-can ticket price on Wednesdays and Sundays as of Autumn 2022.
21. What is mentioned about Theatre 503?
A. Its creator. B. Its history. C. Its capacity. D. Its popularity.
22. What does King’s Head Theatre feature?
A. Keeping itself. B. Reasonable price.
C. Being more sensible. D. Beauty in appearance.
23. Which of the following made use of abandoned railways?
A. Theatre 503. B. King’s Head Theatre.
C. Soho Theatre. D. Vaults Theatre.

Gary McKee, a 53-year-old from England, completed a challenge that many might never dare to try—365 marathons in 365 days.
In 1997, McKee found his father had cancer—which was disastrous for his family. "One word sort of turned our world upside down,” McKee told Fox News Digital of the impact on his family. After losing his father in 2003, McKee wanted to do something in memory of him, which is why he took the challenge to run 365 marathons in 365 days. He became a fundraiser for Macmillan Cancer Support. His goal was to raise about $1.2 million by the end of that year.
On January 1st, 2022, the challenge officially began—and McKee was on his way to running 9, 563 miles. “There was always an air of excitement because you didn’t know who was going to be outside running with you,” McKee said. He would run his course each morning before going to work starting at 8 a. m. Then, halfway through the year, a previous injury started to bother him, so he had to change his start time to 6 a. m. to manage his pace. While the injury could have dampened his spirits, he said he saw the slower pace as a “blessing”, as it allowed more people to run alongside him.
“People will often challenge, ‘How are you going to do that?’ What they mean is they don’t believe that you can. My question then is, ‘How am I not going to do it? You tell me why you think I can’t.’ There is always more reason to do something than there is not to do it. “His entire community supported him for the full year by either joining him on the road or cheering him on from the sidelines. However, it was his family’s support that encouraged him the most and helped him “rest easy”.
By the time Gary McKee got to the end of his run, he had raised over $1 million.
24. Why did Gary McKee start the marathons?
A. To honour his father. B. To raise money for the poor.
C. To keep a healthy body. D. To found Macmillan Cancer Support.
25. Why did Gary McKee adjust his start time?
A. Because he wanted more people to join him.
B. Because he was influenced by his old injury.
C. Because he expected to run a longer distance.
D. Because he wanted to balance his work time and running.
26. What can we learn from the words of Gary McKee in paragraph 4?
A. He was always confident about himself.
B. He thought others’ question was reasonable.
C. He thought everyone could achieve their goals.
D. He wasn’t accustomed to following others’ advice.
27. Which word can best describe Gary McKee?
A. Independent. B. Humorous.
C. Caring. D. Determined.
C
Music lovers are overjoyed! In order to save the live music industry in the UK, the Music Venue Trust (MVT) has been raising money to buy nine properties of grassroots music venues across the country and protect their future.
In the last 20 years, 35% of grassroots music venues have had to close, and in 2023, one music venue is having to shut down every week. While a giant £3. 6 million was put into the grassroots music industry during lockdown as part of the Cultural Recovery Fund, 67% of that was paid directly to landlords.
With rents rising, and landlords getting bigger and better offers from developers, music venues are in an incredibly sensitive position. MVT reports that around 93% currently only have 18 months left on their tenancies.
“The people who own the buildings in which music is played and enjoyed are committed more to profitability than supporting the business,” says Mark Davyd, CEO and founder of MVT. “Unfair rent rises can make previously practicable venues suddenly unsustainable, while venues in property hotspots find themselves driven out to make way for building flats. Short leases (租约) prevent those venues which want to raise funds to improve facilities and make the possibility of government support less likely.
MVT has a solution: Put the properties in the hands of the people who truly love them. Their campaign, “Own Our Venues”, seeks to buy up venue properties, offering shares to musicians and music lovers who want to see these venues thrive(繁荣). Davyd believes this is the most important contribution they can make to the industry. “The best people to own our venues are the people who love them, need them and use them.”
MVT hopes to remind people how important grassroots music venues are to the community. With the UK music industry worth over £5.8 billion, these venues are vital to the development of new and upcoming musicians, and music lovers alike.
28. Why does the Music Venue Trust buy properties of grassroots music venues?
A. To make way for flats. B. To help live music develop.
C. To attract more music lovers. D. To popularize grassroots music.
29. What is paragraph 2 mainly about?
A. The worth of grassroots music venues.
B. The high rent for grassroots music venues.
C. The challenges grassroots music venues face.
D. The investment grassroots music venues need.
30. What does Mark Davyd mainly talk about in paragraph 4?
A. The profit that the building owners make.
B. The possible results of the failure of grassroots music venues.
C. The government’s attitude towards grassroots music venues.
D. The reasons for grassroots music venues’ failure to sustain.
31. How will MVT address the problem of grassroots music venues?
A. By buying a few shares of the music venues.
B. By letting music lovers own the venues.
C. By offering shares to the owner of the venues.
D. By putting the venues in the hands of the government.
D
Most animals can quickly transition from walking to jumping to crawling to swimming if needed without making major adjustments. Most robots cannot. But researchers at Carnegie Mellon University have created soft robots that can seamlessly shift from walking to swimming or crawling to rolling.
“We were inspired by nature to develop a robot that can perform different tasks and adapt to its environment without adding actuators(执行器) or complexity,” said Carmel Majdi, a professor in the Mechanical Engineering Department in CMU’s College of Engineering. “Our bistable(双稳态) actuator is simple, stable and durable, and lays the foundation for future work on dynamic, reconfigurable soft robotics.”
Matching how animals transition from walking to swimming to crawling to jumping is a big challenge for bio-inspired and soft robotics. For example, one robot the team created has four curved actuators attached to the corners of a cellphone-sized body made of two bistable actuators.
On land, the curved actuators act as legs, allowing the robot to walk. In the water, the bistable actuators change the robot’s shape, putting the curved actuators in an ideal position to act as propellers so it can swim.
“You need to have legs to walk on land, and you need to have a propeller to swim in the water. Building a robot with separate systems designed for each environment adds complexity and weight,” said Majidi. “We use the same system for both environments to create an efficient robot.”
The team created two other robots: one that can crawl and jump, and one inspired by caterpillars and pill bugs that can crawl and roll. The actuators require only a hundred millisecond of electrical charge to change their shape, and they are durable.
In the future, the robots could be used in rescue situations or to interact with sea animals or coral. Using heat-activated springs in the actuators could open up applications in environmental monitoring, haptics(触觉). and reconfigurable electronics and communication.
32. Which of the following can best replace the underlined word “seamlessly” in paragraph 1?
A. Theoretically. B. Formally.
C. Perfectly. D. Vividly.
33. How does Majidi sound when speaking of their actuator?
A. Curious. B. Proud. C. Anxious. D. Careful.
34. What may the robots be applied to in the future?
A. Searching for lost items.
B. Competing with human labors.
C. Making heat-activated springs.
D. Connecting with marine animals.
35. What’s the best title for the text?
A. Soft robot shifts from land to sea with ease.
B. Bistable actuator is simple, stable and durable.
C. A system creates an efficient robot for land and sea.
D. Transition from walking to swimming is a grand challenge.

The cost-of-living crisis will hit us hard with rising energy prices and increasing costs. 36 Here’s how your community could help you cope.
Accountability (责任心)
The cost-of-living crisis will force us all to prioritize what we spend money on. 37 If you need more discipline in this area, a responsible partner or group might be the answer. According to productivity experts, you are more likely to stay responsible for your goals if you know you have to periodically check in with another person.
Item exchanging
We generally tend to spend more in the cold months. And when you have an entire household of people to provide for, the cost can quickly add up. So imagine how much money you could save by acquiring some items without spending an extra penny. Don’t be shy about asking those you are closest to if they have an extra blanket they no longer use, or a toy they are about to get rid of. 38 Besides, you’ll be offering something in return.
Information sharing
39 You might not inherit(继承) a pair of shoes or a cardigan, but you could get essential money-saving advice. From the latest government support available to where to shop for reduced items, those in your community may hold the key to crucial financial help. This is why it will be important for you to voice your needs.
Cooking together
Banding with your closest friends or neighbors to prepare and share meals works well for small communities. That’s not to say you have to be at each other’s houses for dinner every night. You can simply batch cook, divide the food into portions and meet weekly to exchange meals. In this case, you stand to save money and minimize waste in the long run. 40
A. It’s also a lot of fun.
B. The worst they can do is say “no”.
C. However, things aren’t totally hopeless.
D. The best thing about a community is the wealth of knowledge.
E. Many people are struggling with increasingly high costs of living.
F. However, exchanging things they no longer need will occupy lots of your space.
G. As prices increase, keeping more of our cash for the bare necessities will become vital.

On his day off, Vernon Jackson still goes to work, opening up his Cincinnati barber shop, Noble Barber and Beauty, for VIP clients: children with special needs.
It’s something he’s done since 2021. “I had heard so many horror 41 that parents were going through in other barber shops and just the barbers or stylists having no 42 with their child,” Jackson said. “Therefore, I 43 I would compromise by coming in on my day off, so I could give them the full 44 that they need.”
Jackson said having an empty shop helps some children who are 45 to new environments and sounds. His 46 is to help the children get accustomed to the barber shop so they can feel 47 coming in when other employees and clients are there.
And not only does he work on his day off, but he does it 48 . “When I first started 49 that I was going to come in on my day off to do haircuts for children with special needs, a friend of mine just randomly e-mailed me and said, ‘Hey Vern, can I 50 a haircut?’” he said. More and more people asked to donate money and Jackson started a GoFundMe page. Many parents wanted to pay for the haircut but Jackson would tell them “It’s 51 .”
Jackson already has 52 that come to him from other cities in Ohio for haircuts, and he hopes to put the money donated towards travel, so he can 53 free haircuts to children with special needs across the country.
“It’s 54 been a beautiful experience,” he said. “I’m 55 to love to my fullest capacity and see what happens when I do.”

John decided to go skiing with his friend, Keith. So they loaded up John’s car and headed north. After driving for a few hours, they got caught in a terrible snowstorm. The snow was falling harder and harder and it was more and more difficult to go on driving. So they decided to look for a house along the way to protect themselves from the heavy snow. At last they saw a small farm in front of them. Thus they pulled into the farm and asked the middle-aged lady who answered the door if they could spend the night in her house.
“I realize it’s terrible weather out there but I have this house only big enough for my five children, and I have no spare room for you,” she explained. “I’m afraid that I can’t offer you a comfortable place to spend the night and you have to continue to look for your shelter.”
John and Keith felt disappointed. It was late and they were not sure of finding a safe shelter for the night. They didn’t know what they should do next. John looked at Keith, who kept silent. Just then, he looked around and found an empty storehouse in the yard. An idea struck him. He was determined to beg the lady to permit them to stay in the storehouse.
“Don’t worry,” John said. “We’ll be happy to sleep in the storehouse. And if the weather breaks, we’ll be gone at first light.” The lady agreed, and the two men found their way to the storehouse and settled in for the night.
But there was little furniture in the storehouse, and it was such freezing weather. They were trembling with cold and they might be most likely to freeze at night. It seemed that they would have to sleep in their clothes. Just then, three children walked into the storehouse, with something in their hands.

W: Valerie Jane Morris-Goodall was born on April 3rd, 1934, in the United Kingdom’s capital city, London. Jane Goodall is an expert on wild chimpanzees. Recognized for her groundbreaking discoveries about their behavior—she discovered that chimpanzees make tools, hunt for meat and eat it, and have similar social behavior to humans—she completely transformed our understanding of our closest relative in the animal kingdom. Goodall’s fascination with animal behavior began in early childhood. In her leisure time, she observed native birds and animals, making extensive notes and sketches, and read widely in the literature of zoology. When she was about a year old, her father gave her a toy chimpanzee called Jubilee. The toy had been made to celebrate London Zoo’s first chimpanzee birth in captivity. At the age of five, she went missing in Folkestone and a search was started for her. When she was eventually found, it turned out that she had been sitting for several hours in the hen house. She had wanted to find out how chickens laid eggs and had sat waiting for one to come into the hen house so she could see for herself how it actually happened.

Dear Cara,
How are you doing? Knowing that you take great interest in Chinese traditional culture, I am writing to invite you to pay a visit to the local cultural ancient street this weekend.
We’ll meet at 8:00 on Sunday morning at the school gate. Then we can take a bus to get there because the street is located a little far away. We’ll rent some traditional clothes and take some photos. After that, we will enjoy some ancient things, such as trying Luban Lock.
I am looking forward to your early reply.
Yours,

写作第二节（满分25 分）
One possible version:
It turned out that they came to help John and Keith go through the freezing night. One of the children carried a stove, another carried a large bundle of firewood, and the third took some bedclothes with him. It was a great surprise for both John and Keith. The children lit the wood in the stove and the room became warm at once. The two men hurriedly made the bed. Now they could enjoy a warm and comfortable night. They were even more touched when the lady brought them a hot meal to eat a moment later.
Waking up the next day, John and Keith found their door blocked by heavy snow. They tried their best to force the door open, only to find that thick snow had covered everywhere in the yard, including the roof of the house where the family lived, and it seemed that it was in a bad situation. Seeing that, John and Keith took some tools to clear the snow with that family. After about an hour, they cleared all the snow. The lady thanked them, saying that they had done a great favor for her and that without their help, the house might not stand the snow. They just smiled, saying “You help yourself.”
