Four Multicultural Cities
New York City
It is probably not all that surprising to find out that the Big Apple is one of the most global cities in the world. It has the largest population of immigrants on the planet. Over 35% of its residents are born outside the USA. You can hear over 800 languages in New York City being spoken on a daily basis. Which is the most multicultural district in the city? Queens is the largest and also the most multiracial urban area in the world!
London
London may come in second place behind New York City for the percentage of the immigrant population. But it is easily the most international city in all of Europe. Bangladeshis, Pakistanis, and Indians are a few of the larger immigrant groups and a walk around the city will uncover that they have definitely brought their cultures with them. People from around the world are drawn to London and over 30% of its residents are born outside the UK.
Singapore
This city-state is not just the main financial center of Southeast Asia, but also one of the most multicultural places on the planet. Singapore has four official languages: Mandarin Chinese, English, Malay, and Tamil. It is also a center for international residents and their cultures. So, you are sure to meet large communities of permanent residents who are foreign-born.
Sydney
Following World War Ⅱ, Sydney saw a huge inflow of immigrants. This trend has continued into the present day, making Sydney one of the most multicultural cities in the world. Although English is the official language spoken in Sydney, this city is home to more than 250 languages. Immigrants from places such as Vietnam, India, and South America have made this city their home and brought their cultures with them. You will be spoilt for choice when it comes to Sydney’s cultural variety!
1. Where can you find the largest multiracial district?
A. In Singapore. B. In Sydney. C. In New York City. D. In London.
2. What do London and Singapore have in common?
A. They are suitable for minorities to earn a living.
B. They make it their mission to attract immigrants.
C. They both have over 30% foreign-born populations.
D. They both have different races and cultures mixed together.
3. What makes Sydney one of the most multicultural cities?
A. World War Ⅱ. B. Immigration. C. Economy. D. Education.
【答案】1. C 2. D 3. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇应用文，主要介绍了世界上四个拥有多元文化的城市。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据New York City部分的“Which is the most multicultural district in the city? Queens is the largest and also the most multiracial urban area in the world!(哪个区是城市中最多元文化的区？皇后区是世界上最大也是最多元种族的城区！)”可知, 纽约市的皇后区是世界上文化最多样化的城市区域。故选C。
【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据London部分的Bangladeshis, Pakistanis, and Indians are a few of the larger immigrant groups and a walk around the city will uncover that they have definitely brought their cultures with them.(孟加拉国人、巴基斯坦人和印度人是其中一些较大的移民群体，在城市里四处走走就会发现他们肯定带来了自己的文化。)”以及 Singapore 部分的“It is also a center for international residents and their cultures.(它也是国际居民及其文化的中心。)”可知，这两座城市都有不同种族和文化的交融。故选 D 。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据 Sydney 部分的“Following World War II, Sydney saw a huge inflow of immigrants. This trend has continued into the present day, making Sydney one of the most multicultural cities in the world.(第二次世界大战后，悉尼出现了大量移民流入。这一趋势一直延续到今天，使悉尼成为世界上最多元文化的城市之一。)”可知，自二战后至今，大量移民涌入悉尼，移民潮使其成为一座拥有多元文化的城市。故选 B 。
B
Michael Faraday was an English chemist and physicist born in a working class on 22 September 1791. Faraday’s father suffered from long-term health problems that often impeded his work. As a result, Faraday’s family had little money and Faraday got a very little formal schooling. But Faraday had an active curiosity and determination to learn. While working in London as a teenager, he had access to a wide range of books and he read everything he could get his hands on. By doing a lot of reading, Faraday soon educated himself on many scientific subjects, and his life as a scientist began.
In 1812, Faraday attended four lectures at the Royal Institution given by a famous chemist named Humphrey Davy. Afterwards Faraday sent a letter to Davy, expressing a strong interest in the subjects covered in the lectures and offering his services as a lab assistant. A year later, Davy accepted Faraday as his lab assistant. Thanks to his work with Davy, Faraday got a complete scientific education.
He soon began to research and experiments with electricity. Although his time was mostly spent helping Davy, Faraday began to work on his own as a chemist and scientist of great importance. When Davy retired in 1827, Faraday took his place as the head of the chemistry department of the Royal Institute. Upon taking up the position he could focus on his own research, and Faraday’s most influential and celebrated work began in the 1830s. In 1831, he discovered electromagnetic induction(电磁感应), a breakthrough in the field of technology. In 1846 he gave a lecture that presented important ideas about the nature of electricity, and these later inspired the historical work of James Maxwell related to electromagnetic field theory.
4. What does the underlined word “impeded” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Stopped. B. Saved. C. Changed. D. Increased.
5. What do we know about Faraday’s teenage life?
A. He didn’t go to school. B. He lived a carefree life.
C. He learned science on his own. D. He got much help from his parents.
6. Why did Faraday offer his services to Davy?
A. To earn more money. B. To show respect for Davy.
C. To learn more about Davy. D. To learn more about science.
7. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The help Davy gave to Faraday. B. The turning point in Faraday’s life.
C. Faraday’s academic achievement. D. Faraday’s influence on James Maxwell.
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. D 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了迈克尔·法拉第的家庭背景、学习和工作经历、科学成就等。
【4题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词前的“Faraday’s father suffered from long-term health problems”和下一句“As a result, Faraday’s family had little money and Faraday got a very little formal schooling.(因此，法拉第的家庭几乎没有钱，法拉第也很少接受正规教育。)”可知，法拉第的父亲长期身体不好，家里没有多少钱，法拉第也很少接受正规教育, 由此可推测，身体原因影响了法拉第父亲的工作，所以impede意为“妨碍，阻碍”，与stop意思相近。故选A项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的“By doing a lot of reading, Faraday soon educated himself on many scientific subjects, and his life as a scientist began.(通过大量阅读，法拉第很快就自学了许多科学科目，他的科学家生涯开始了。)”可知，青少年时期的法拉第自学了科学方面的知识,。故选C项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Afterwards Faraday sent a letter to Davy, expressing a strong interest in the subjects covered in the lectures and offering his services as a lab assistant.(之后，法拉第给戴维发了一封信，表达了他对讲座中涉及的主题的浓厚兴趣，并提供了实验室助理的服务。)”可知，法拉第对戴维的讲座非常感兴趣，主动提出为他当实验室助理，由此可推测，他想要以一个学习者的身份提供帮助从而获得学习科学知识的机会。故选 D 项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段中的“Upon taking up the position he could focus on his own research, and Faraday’s most influential and celebrated work began in the 1830s. In 1831, he discovered electromagnetic induction(电磁感应), a breakthrough in the field of technology. In 1846 he gave a lecture that presented important ideas about the nature of electricity, and these later inspired the historical work of James Maxwell related to electromagnetic field theory.(上任后，他可以专注于自己的研究，法拉第最有影响力和最著名的工作始于19世纪30年代。1831年，他发现了电磁感应，这是技术领域的一个突破。1846年，他发表了一次演讲，提出了关于电的本质的重要思想，这些思想后来启发了詹姆斯·麦克斯韦与电磁场理论有关的历史著作。)”可知，本段主要与法拉第的学术成就相关。故选C项。
C
Home gardens produce delicious food. But that’s not their main virtue.
Imagine a plate holding two strawberries, identical in appearance. One comes out of a supermarket box, meaning it is probably harvested when it is still unripe, immediately placed in a forced-air cooling unit and driven hundreds of miles. By the time it reaches the plate, it may have been off the vine for two weeks. The other strawberry is picked from a garden minutes before being eaten. The first one will probably taste sour with a light strawberry flavor. The second is likely to be sweet, and the flavor will remain in the mouth, as the smell will on the hands.
Supermarket strawberries are not entirely without advantages: they are convenient and available almost everywhere. The same could be said of cooking: affordable and decent restaurants around, so why bother to make your own meals?
That attitude misunderstands the final appeal of gardening: it mistakes the product for the purpose.
It is true that a garden, especially in the early years, can bring little but frustration. Inexperienced gardeners may plant the wrong crops for their soil. And even expert gardeners can lose a season’s harvest to uncooperative weather.
No matter.
The real joy of gardening is the time spent doing it. The deepest pleasure—as with cooking, writing, or almost anything worthwhile—is in the work itself. A gardener’s memories center not on the food produced, but on long summer afternoons with hands in the dirt, surrounded by family, if the garden is at home, or enhancing relationships with friends and neighbors in a community garden. To garden is to patiently, lovingly and diligently help life grow, in the ground and above it.
8. What do we know about the supermarket strawberry?
A. It may taste sour. B. It is cheaper than the garden one.
C. It is picked two weeks before it is ripe. D. It looks more attractive than the garden one.
9. Why might a home garden harvest little?
A. Because the soil is wet. B. Because the weather is bad.
C. Because the gardener lacks confidence. D. Because the plants grow in the wrong season.
10. Gardening is similar to cooking and writing in that __________.
A. they all encourage patience B. they all promote friendships
C. they all need rich experience D. they all bring joy in the process
11. What is the text mainly about?
A. The advantages of green food. B. The benefits of home gardening.
C. The trend of making food at home. D. The pleasure of watching life grow.
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要叙述了家庭园艺的好处。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The first one will probably taste sour with a light strawberry flavor.(第一种可能会尝起来酸酸的，带有淡淡的草莓味。)”可知，超市的草莓可能发酸。故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中的“And even expert gardeners can lose a season’s harvest to uncooperative weather.(即使是专业的园丁也可能因为不合作的天气而失去一个季节的收成。)”可知，天气不好可能会导致失去一个季节的收成，由此可推测出，家庭菜园收成少可能是因为天气不好。故选B。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“The deepest pleasure—as with cooking, writing, or almost anything worthwhile—is in the work itself.(与烹饪、写作或几乎任何有价值的事情一样，最深的乐趣在于工作本身。)”可知，烹饪、写作和园艺相似的一点在于：在做这件事的过程会带来乐趣。故选D。
11题详解】
主旨大意题。第一段“Home gardens produce delicious food. But that’s not their main virtue.(家庭菜园出产美味的食物。但这并不是它们的主要优点。)”引出话题：家庭菜园有许多优点。接下来具体讲述了家庭园艺的好处：能生产出美味的食物、能带来快乐、促进人际关系等。由此可推测出，B项“家庭园艺的好处”最符合。故选B。
D
Milk, it comes from cows, right? Well, not all the milk you see on supermarket shelves is from cows. These days we see many plant-based alternatives to dairy, such as oat, pea and soya milk. But why would someone stop drinking their full-fat, semi-skimmed or skimmed cow’s milk and trade it for one of these? There are many reasons why someone might try alternative milks.
Some people believe the alternatives are healthier than milk from cows. Those with lactose(乳糖) intolerance or thinking about becoming vegan might start drinking alternative milks. Also, concerns about the impact of dairy farming on the environment could be a factor. Whatever the reason, there are many alternatives to dairy out there for us to consume. But what are the differences between these other options and regular cow’s milk? Soya milk is one common alternative. According to some sources, such as healthline.com, it contains a similar amount of protein to regular milk. It is also lower in calories than some cow’s milk, which could be good for those on a diet, and often comes strengthened with things like calcium and various vitamins.
So, all good? Well, soya, according to foodallergy.org, is one of the nine foods which cause the majority of allergic reactions, such as lactose intolerance and nut allergy. Almond milk is a low-calorie, low-fat drink and is naturally lactose free and has a slight nutty taste. When unsweetened, it also has lower levels of carbohydrates and sugars than some dairy options. However, even when strengthened, it doesn’t provide the levels of protein seen in soya or regular milk. Then there’s coconut milk, which is low in calories and may affect people with lactose intolerance as much as other options, but is lacking in protein.
Whichever plant-based milk you choose, there are positives and negatives. Dieticians agree the most important thing is getting a healthy balanced diet which won’t trigger any allergies and comes with all the minerals and vitamins you need. And at the end of the day, it may just come down to which one you think tastes better.
12. What is the purpose of the question at the very beginning?
A. To state a wrong belief. B. To introduce the main topic.
C. To express the writer’s doubt. D. To ask for an immediate answer.
13. In what aspect is the alternative milk different from regular cow milk?
A. Farming technology. B. Allergy symptoms.
C. Weight control. D. Taste preferences.
14. Which milk might a lactose intolerance person prefer?
A. Soya milk. B. Almond milk. C. Coconut milk. D. Regular milk.
15. What do dieticians suggest?
A. Returning to cow milk. B. Making use of alternative milks.
C. Calculating mineral and vitamin content. D. Combining nutrition facts with taste buds.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，文章解释了现在有些人会选择用植物奶来代替牛奶的原因，并讲述了植物奶的优缺点以及营养师提出的建议。
【12题详解】
目的意图题。根据第一段中的“Milk, it comes from cows, right? Well, not all the milk you see on supermarket shelves is from cows. These days we see many plant-based alternatives to dairy, such as oat, pea and soya milk.(奶，它来自奶牛，对吧？嗯，并不是所有你在超市货架上看到的奶都来自奶牛。如今，我们看到了许多以植物为基础的替代乳制品，如燕麦、豌豆和豆浆。)”可知，作者开头提出奶是否来自奶牛的问题，并给出回答说不是说有的奶都是从奶牛身上挤出来的，接着引出有以植物为基础的替代乳制品。由此可推测出，作者在文章开头提出问题是为了引出本文主要讨论的话题——植物奶。故选B。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。第二段中的“But what are the differences between these other options and regular cow’s milk?(但是，这些其他选择与普通牛奶之间有什么区别？)”询问植物奶和普通牛奶的区别，接下来文章举豆奶的例子进行说明。根据第二段中的“It is also lower in calories than some cow’s milk, which could be good for those on a diet, and often comes strengthened with things like calcium and various vitamins.(它的热量也比一些牛奶低，这对那些节食的人有好处，而且经常补充钙和各种维生素等。)”可知，豆奶的热量比牛奶低，这有利于减肥，由此可推测出，植物替代奶品和普通牛奶二者的不同之处在于体重控制。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Almond milk is a low-calorie, low-fat drink and is naturally lactose free and has a slight nutty taste.(杏仁奶是一种低热量、低脂肪的饮料，天然不含乳糖，有轻微的坚果味。)”可知，杏仁奶不含乳糖，由此可推测出，乳糖不耐受的人更偏爱喝杏仁奶。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Dieticians agree the most important thing is getting a healthy balanced diet which won’t trigger any allergies and comes with all the minerals and vitamins you need. And at the end of the day, it may just come down to which one you think tastes better.(营养师们一致认为，最重要的是获得健康均衡的饮食，这种饮食不会引发任何过敏，并含有你需要的所有矿物质和维生素。而最终，可能只是归结为你认为哪一种味道更好。)”可知，营养师们认为选择奶品的时候要考虑其是否健康均衡，含有必要的营养物质且不会造成过敏，而且还要考虑哪种味道好。由此可推测出，营养师建议要综合考虑营养因素和口感。故选D。

根据短文内容, 从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项, 选项中有两项为多余选项。
Creativity can seem like magic. We look at people like Steve Jobs and Bob Dylan, and we conclude that they must possess supernatural powers. ___16___ It’s a skill. Anyone can learn to be creative and to get better at it. A set of lessons has emerged about what creativity is and how to encourage it in ourselves and our work.
Let’s start with the hardest problems. ___17___ Scientists have begun studying how insight occurs. They have found that certain factors make people much more likely to have an insight, better able to find answers. For instance, exposing participants to a short, humorous video boosts the average success rate by about 20 percent.
___18___ It can be Archimedes in the bathtub or the physicist Richard Feynman scribbling equations in a strip club. As Einstein once declared, “Creativity is what is left after time is wasted.”
But this raises an obvious question: If different kinds of creative problems benefit from different kinds of creative thinking, how can we ensure that we’re thinking in the right way at the right time? When should we daydream and go for a relaxing stroll, and when should we keep on sketching and toying with possibilities? ___19___ Scientists call it “feelings of knowing”, and they occur when we suspect that we can find the answer, if only we keep on thinking.
Steve Jobs famously declared that “Creativity is just connecting things”. ___20___ It can be satisfying when the flame catches and a new idea sweeps around the world.
A. But creativity is not magic.
B Every creative story is different.
C. It’s just a matter of getting the answer out.
D. Such problems are typically solved in a moment of insight.
E. Actually human minds can assess the right kind of creativity.
F. The most unbelievable concepts are combinations of existing stuff.
G. They also explain why a major breakthrough happens in the unlikeliest place.
【答案】16. A 17. D 18. G 19. E 20. F

【16题详解】
前文“We look at people like Steve Jobs and Bob Dylan, and we conclude that they must possess supernatural powers.(我们观察像史蒂夫·乔布斯和鲍勃·迪伦这样的人，我们得出结论，他们一定拥有超自然的力量。)”提到像史蒂夫·乔布斯和鲍勃·迪伦这样有创造力的人一定拥有超自然的力量，后文“It’s a skill.(这是一种技能。)”讲述了与前文不同的观点，提到这是一种技能，由此可知，空处应承上启下，与前文形成转折，并引出后文。A项“但创造力并不是魔法。”符合题意，后文中的It指代选项中的creativity。故选A。
【17题详解】
前文“Let’s start with the hardest problems.(让我们从最难的问题开始。)”提到了问题，空处应与问题有关，结合后文“Scientists have begun studying how insight occurs.(科学家们已经开始研究洞察力是如何产生的。)”提到的科学家在研究洞察力的产生可知，空处应是说问题与洞察力的关系，D项“这样的问题通常会在一瞬间的洞察力中得到解决。”承上启下。故选D。
【18题详解】
后文“It can be Archimedes in the bathtub or the physicist Richard Feynman scribbling equations in a strip club.(它可以是浴缸里的阿基米德，也可以是脱衣舞俱乐部里写方程式的物理学家理查德·费曼。)”提到一些在非常规地方做出重大发现的例子，G项“他们还解释了为什么重大突破会发生在最不可能的地方。”引出下文，且选项中的They指代上文中的科学家。故选G。
【19题详解】
前文“If different kinds of creative problems benefit from different kinds of creative thinking, how can we ensure that we’re thinking in the right way at the right time?(如果不同类型的创造性问题受益于不同类型的创新思维，那我们如何确保我们在正确的时间以正确的方式思考？)”提出了问题：如何确保在正确的时间以正确的方式思考？这里应回答前面的问题，E项“事实上，人类的头脑可以评估正确的创造力。”符合题意，且选项中的the right kind of creativity与前文中的thinking in the right way相照应。故选E。
【20题详解】
前文“Steve Jobs famously declared that ‘Creativity is just connecting things’.(史蒂夫·乔布斯曾说过一句著名的话：‘创造力就是连接事物’。)”讲述了创造力就是连接事物，E项“最令人难以置信的概念是现有事物的组合。”承接上文，且选项中的combinations of existing stuff与前文中的connecting things相照应。故选F。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲述了有关清明节的传统。
【36题详解】
考查冠词。句意：清明节是中国人民纪念逝去亲人的时刻。occasion在这里表示“适当的机会，时机”，为单数名词，这里表示泛指，且occasion的发音以元音音素开头，所以应用不定冠词an。故填an。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：说起清明节，四月初的一个节日，气温温暖，雨量充沛，正是春播的时节。分析句子结构，空处应用非谓语动词。speaking of意为“说到”，为固定用法，在句中作插入语。故填Speaking。
【38题详解】
考查介词。句意参考上题。it is the right time for...意为“正是……的时间”，为固定结构。故填for。
【39题详解】
考查形容词。句意：与此同时，中国人将在清明前后祭拜祖先的陵墓，向死者致敬。“the+形容词”可表示一类人，根据句意和空前的the，这里表示“死者”，所以应用形容词dead。故填dead。
【40题详解】
考查主谓一致、时间和语态。句意：2008年，清明节被列为中国的公共假日。空处作句子的谓语。根据时间状语“in 2008”，这里表示过去发生的事情，应用一般过去时。主语Qingming为第三人称单数，且和include之间是动宾关系，所以应用一般过去时的被动语态，且be动词应用单数was。故填was included。
【41题详解】
考查代词。句意：中国人称自己为炎帝和黄帝的后代。空处作call的宾语，且主语为Chinese people，这里表示“中国人自己”，应用反身代词themselves。故填themselves。
【42题详解】
考查过去分词。句意：每年清明节都会举行盛大的仪式来表示对黄帝的尊敬，他也被称为轩辕帝。分析句子结构，本句是一个简单句，句子的谓语是is held，所以空处应用非谓语动词。逻辑主语the Yellow Emperor和know之间是动宾关系，所以应用过去分词，作后置定语。故填known。
【43题详解】
考查名词。句意：在这一天，来自世界各地的华人共同向这位祖先致敬，这是对中华民族根源的提醒，也是重温祖先文明的机会。根据空前的a，这里应用名词的单数形式，reminder意为“引起回忆的事物，提醒人的事物”，为可数名词，符合题意。故填reminder。
【44题详解】
考查连词。句意：春天的阳光使一切恢复了生机，现在是欣赏外面美景的最佳时机。空处连接并列句。“春天的阳光使一切恢复了生机”和“现在是欣赏外面美景的最佳时机”是顺承或因果关系，所以可用and或so连接并列句。故填and/so。
【45题详解】
考查副词。句意：温和的温度和新鲜的空气彻底缓解了压力，使春游成为那些过着繁忙现代生活的人的另一种休闲选择。空处应用副词修饰stress-relieving。thoroughly意为“彻底，完全”，符合题意。故填thoroughly。

Dear fellow students,

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Dear fellow students,
Our school has a program to help students develop good habits. But there is a serious phenomenon in our school—some students are spending too much money on snacks. Eating snacks is a waste of money, which is also a bad habit that we should get rid of. In addition, most snacks have too much fat and sugar. We all agree that eating too much of the unhealthy food may lead to being overweight and diseases. What is worse, some students throw the wrappers everywhere, which makes a majority of students unhappy. As high school students, we shouldn’t act like children any more.
Dear fellow students, let’s form good eating habits and say no to snacks!

47. 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。
An abandoned dog stopped at the front door of the Laceys’ small house, wagging its tail, trembling with shyness and cold. Doris Lacey, whose school had been called off because of the snow, spotted the creature and immediately went up to meet it.
“Where did that come from?” Mrs. Lacey asked as soon as Doris put the dog down in the kitchen. Mr. Lacey was at the table, cleaning his fingernails. “I don’t know where it came from, ”he said mildly, “but I know for sure where it’s going.”
Doris hugged the dog hard against her. She said nothing.
Because of the snow, the roads would be too bad for travel for many days. Mr. Lacey couldn’t get out to take the dog to the animal shelter in the city right away. He agreed to let it sleep in the basement while Mrs. Lacey unwillingly let Doris feed it leftover food.
Four days passed and the dog did not complain. It never cried in the night or barked at the wind. It didn’t tear up everything in the basement. It wouldn’t even follow Doris up the basement steps unless it was invited. It was a good dog.
Several times Doris had opened the door in the kitchen that led to the basement and the puppy had been there, all stretched out, on the top step. Doris knew it had wanted some company and that it had lain against the door, listening to the talk in the kitchen, smelling the food, being a part of things. It always wagged its tail, eyes all sleepy, when she found it there.
Even after a week had gone by, Doris didn’t name the dog. She knew her parents wouldn’t let her keep it, that her father made so little money and any pets were out of the question, and that the dog would definitely go to the shelter when the weather cleared. Still, she tried talking to them about the dog at dinner one night. “She’s a good dog and not much trouble, right?” Doris said, hoping one of them would agree with her. But Mr. Lacey shook his head, “You know we can’t afford a dog, Doris. You try to act more grown-up about this.” Doris fell silent, praying the weather would never clear.
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。
However, the sun was shining the next morning.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Later that afternoon, Mr. Lacey came back with the same dog.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 However, the sun was shining the next morning. Doris was sitting alone in the living room trying not to cry, but she was not strong enough. Her face was wet and red, her eyes full of depression. Outside, she heard the trunk of the car slam shut, one of the doors open and close, the old engine cough and choke and finally start up. Hearing the car travel down the road, she could do nothing but cry herself to sleep, and her dreams were full of searching and searching for things lost.
Later that afternoon Mr. Lacey came back with the same dog. Doris put her hand to her mouth. She couldn’t believe her eyes. “You didn’t take her away?” she asked. “I did,” her father answered. “The worst looking place I’ve ever seen. Ten dogs in a cage. Smell was enough to knock you down. And they give an animal six days to live. Then they kill it with some kind of a shot. I wouldn’t leave an ant in that place, so I brought the dog back.” Doris excitedly ran to her father and gave him a super big hug. What an unexpected surprise it is!
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。Doris Lacey在家门口捡到一只流浪狗，父母都不同意在家里养它，但因为下雪路滑，爸爸同意小狗住在地下室。小狗在地下室很乖，Doris Lacey对它产生了感情，想要养它，但是她知道她家里的经济条件无法养它。天气好的时候，爸爸把小狗送收容所了，Doris Lacey很伤心，但没想到后来爸爸又带着小狗回来了。
【详解】1. 段落续写：
由续写第一段首句内容“然而，第二天早上阳光明媚。”可知，第一段可以描写爸爸要把小狗送走了，Doris虽然不舍但也没办法留下它，只能独自伤心。
由续写第二段首句内容“当天下午晚些时候，Lacey先生带着同一只狗回来了。”可知，第二段可以描写爸爸带小狗回来后Doris的惊喜，以及爸爸解释没把小狗留在收容所的原因。
2. 续写线索：天气转晴——Doris因无法留下小狗而努力压抑自己的情绪——爸爸开车带小狗离开——Doris终于忍不住哭了起来——爸爸带着小狗回来——爸爸解释了原因——Doris感到惊喜
