B
I remember doing the household chores to help my mother when I was nine. I hated changing the vacuum cleaner (真空吸尘器) bag and picking up things the machine did not suck up. Twenty years later, in 1978, with this lifelong dislike of the way the machine worked, I decided to make a bagless one.
Easier said than done, of course. I didn’t realize that I would spend the next five years perfecting my design, a process that resulted in 5,127 different prototypes (样机). By the time I made my 15th prototype, my third child was born. By 2,627, my wife and I were really counting our pennies. By 3,727, my wife was giving art lessons for some extra cash, and we were getting further and further into debt. These were tough times, but each failure brought me closer to solving the problem.
In the early 1980s, I started trying to get licensing agreements for my technology. The reality was very different, however. The major vacuum makers had built a business model based on the profits from bags and filters (滤网). No one would license my idea, not because it was a bad one, but because it was bad for business. But soon after, the companies that I had talked with started making machines like mine. I had to fight legal battles on both sides of the Atlantic to protect the patents on my vacuum cleaner.
I was still in financial difficulties until 1993, when my bank manager personally persuaded Lloyds Bank to lend me $1 million. Then I was able to go into production. Within two years, the Dyson vacuum cleaner became a best-seller in Britain.
Today, I still embrace risk and the potential for failure as part of the process. Nothing beats the excitement of invention,
4. What drove the author to make a bagless vacuum cleaner?
A. His willingness to help mom.
B. His curiosity about machines.
C. His trouble in doing family chores.
D. His discontent with existing cleaners.
5. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us?
A. The help from the author’s wife.
B. The financial problems of the family.
C. The tough process of the new invention.
D. The procedures of making a bagless cleaner.
6. Why did the companies refuse to license the author’s technology?
A. They thought they might suffer loss.
B. They considered it not good enough.
C. They faced legal problems themselves.
D. They had begun making such machines.
7. What lesson may the author learn from the experience?
A. Think twice before acting.
B. Failure is the mother of success.
C. Actions speak louder than words.
D. A good beginning makes a good ending.
【答案】4. D 5. C 6. A 7. B
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇记叙文。文章主要通过讲述作者发明无袋吸尘器的经历，揭示了“失败为成功之母”的道理。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段末尾句内容“I hated changing the vacuum cleaner (真空吸尘器) bag and picking up things the machine did not suck up. Twenty years later, in 1978, with this lifelong dislike of the way the machine worked, I decided to make a bagless one.( 我讨厌换真空吸尘器的袋子，讨厌把吸尘器吸不进去的东西捡起来。二十年后，也就是1978年，我对这台机器的工作方式一直很反感，于是决定做一台无袋的。)”可知，对于真空吸尘器的反感导致了作者研制一种无袋吸尘器。故选D项。
【5题详解】
主旨大意题。通读文章第二段内容，可知其段落结构为总分总结构，首句内容“Easier said than done, of course.( 当然，说起来容易做起来难。)”和末尾句内容“These were tough times, but each failure brought me closer to solving the problem.( 这是艰难的时刻，但每一次失败都让我离解决问题更近了一步。)”点明本段主旨要义，即：作者发明无袋吸尘器过程中遇到的一些困难。选项C. The tough process of the new invention.(这项新发明的艰难过程。)贴合主旨。故选C项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段内容“The major vacuum makers had built a business model based on the profits from bags and filters. No one would license my idea, not because it was a bad one, but because it was bad for business.( 主要的吸尘器制造商建立了一种基于包装袋和过滤器利润的商业模式。没有人会批准我的想法，不是因为它不好，而是因为它不利于生意。)”可知，没人会认可作者的想法是因为真空吸尘器的包装袋和过滤器能够给商家带来盈利，而作者发明的无袋吸尘器会使商家失去原有的能够带来盈利的部分，因此商家担心其不能带来盈利反而可能会导致损失。故选A项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。作者在文章末尾点明主旨，揭示道理：Today, I still embrace risk and the potential for failure as part of the process. Nothing beats the excitement of invention.( 今天，我仍然接受风险和失败的可能性作为过程的一部分。没有什么能比得上发明带来的兴奋。)可知，作者的“无袋吸尘器”发明经历使他明白了风险和失败在发明过程中是可能存在的。选项B. Failure is the mother of success.( 失败是成功之母。)正确陈述了作者的领悟。故选B项。
【点睛】阅读理解之段落主旨大意
首尾呼应原则：主题句在段落的开头和结尾两个位置上先后出现，形成前呼后应的格局。这两个主题句叙说的是同一个内容，但用词不尽相同，这样不但强调了主题思想，而且显得灵活多变。这两个句子并非简单重复，后一个主题句或对该主题作最后的评述，或对要点作一概括，或使之引申留给读者去思考。比如文章的第2小题：
2. What does paragraph 2 mainly tell us?
A. The help from the author’s wife.
B. The financial problems of the family.
C. The tough process of the new invention.
D. The procedures of making a bagless cleaner.
通过阅读文章第二段可知，该段的主题句在段落的开头和结尾两个位置上先后出现，形成前呼后应的格局。因此结合首末两个主题句：“Easier said than done, of course.( 当然，说起来容易做起来难。)”和“These were tough times, but each failure brought me closer to solving the problem.( 这是艰难的时刻，但每一次失败都让我离解决问题更近了一步。)”分析可知，选项C. The tough process of the new invention.符合主旨要义。因此答案为C项。
C

Pigeons (鸽子) may be considered mice of the sky, but some scientists have found greater value in these urban birds: the blueprint for a new generation of flying machines.

Birds can transform the shape of their wings by fanning out their feathers or moving them closer together. Those adjustments allow birds to cut through the sky more flexibly than rigid drones (无人机). Now, using new insights into exactly how pigeons ‘joints control the spread of their wing feathers, researchers have built a robotic pigeon. This research paves the way for creating more light aircraft, says Dario Floreano, a roboticist in Switzerland not involved in the work.
“What’s really cool about this robot is that you can make adjustments in a robotic wing that you could never do when studying flight in a bird”, says David Lentink, an engineer and biologist at Stanford University. A controllable robotic pigeon solves that problem. In flight tests, Lentink’s team observed that bending only the fingers of one wing eased the robot into a banked turn-offering the first evidence that birds may sometimes use just their fingers to direct in flight. In a second study, Lentink’s group used their robotic wing design to confirm another insight into bird flight: how gaps are prevented from forming between feathers on extended wings.
This is the best set of robotic wings yet for testing how birds adjust their flight feathers to move through the air, says Tyson Hedrick, a biomechanist. But “there’s plenty of room for improvement.” For instance, a future flying robot could include a shoulder joint to investigate how waving a bird’s wings up and down influences flight, he says.
8. What is the newly-found worth of pigeons?
A. They help study other species.
B. They protect other urban birds.
C. They provide proof of mice’s harm.
D. They inspire a new aircraft.
9 What is Dario Floreano’s attitude to the research?
A. Negative. B. Positive.
C. Neutral. D. Critical.
10. What do the underlined words “that problem” in paragraph 3 refer to?
A. Pigeons in flight can hardly be observed.
B People can’t make adjustments in birds’ wings.
C. It is difficult for pigeons to make a banked turn.
D. Pigeons fail to control the spread of their wing feathers.
11. Where does the text probably come from?
A. A travel journal.
B. A travel brochure.
C. A science fiction.
D. A science magazine.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了利用对鸽子的关节如何控制翅膀羽毛伸展的新见解，研究人员已经建造了一个机器鸽子，这是一套用于测试鸟类如何调整飞行羽毛在空中移动的机械翅膀，能够有效帮助科学家研发出新一代的飞行器。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段内容“Pigeons may be considered mice of the sky, but some scientists have found greater value in these urban birds: the blueprint for a new generation of flying machines.”可知一些科学家发现鸽子的价值在于它们是新一代飞行机器的蓝图。故选D项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段末尾句内容“This research paves the way for creating more light aircraft, says Dario Floreano, a roboticist in Switzerland not involved in the work.” 可知，在Dario Floreano来看，这项研究为制造更多的轻型飞机铺平了道路，因此可推知他对这项研究的态度是支持的。故选B项。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。根据划线短语“that problem”可知，that为指示代词，指代前文提及的内容。因此that problem 应是指代前文：“What’s really cool about this robot is that you can make adjustments in a robotic wing that you could never do when studying flight in a bird”, says David Lentink, an engineer and biologist at Stanford University.( 斯坦福大学的工程师和生物学家David Lentink说：“这个机器人的最酷之处在于，你可以调整机器人的翅膀，而这在研究鸟类飞行时是无法做到的。”)提到的人类无法做到的问题：人类无法像机器人一样在研究鸟类飞行时调整鸟的翅膀。故选B项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章的核心主题为“a robotic pigeon”，因此可知，文章应是科普类文章，应是刊登在科普杂志上。故选D项。
【点睛】人物性格、态度及观点判断题：高考阅读测试中有些是考查考生对作者的主导思想、被描写人物语气、言谈话语中流露的情绪、性格倾向和作者或文中人物态度、观点等方面的理解题。做这一类题时一定要注意：由表及里的准确把握字里行间的意思，切勿用自己的主观想法或观点代替作者的思想观点；特别注意那些描写环境气氛的语言，以及表达感情、态度观点的词语。要特别注意作者在文章中的措词，尤其是表达感情色彩的形容词；能结合自己平时积累的有关英语国家的文化传统、风俗习惯等背景知识来识别评价。比如文章的第2小题：
2. What is Dario Floreano’s attitude to the research?
A. Negative. B. Positive. C. Neutral. D. Critical.
根据题干可知，应是态度推理判断题。结合原文“This research paves the way for creating more light aircraft, says Dario Floreano, a roboticist in Switzerland not involved in the work.”可以看出一些表达态度观点的短语：paves the way(为……作准备；为……铺平道路)，应是积极的态度。因此答案为B项。

D
Is there a link between social media and depression? Do Facebook and Instagram have a negative impact on your mental health? It’s complicated.
Sometimes, looking through Instagram just makes you feel bad. You try not to envy your friends, but they always seem to be traveling somewhere cool, eating something fancy, or looking cute in perfect just-rolled-out-of-bed hair. On the other hand, there are times when you laugh at funny memes (表情包), catch up with old friends, and feel happy to belong to fun social media communities, Clearly, social media isn’t all bad.
People are increasingly suspect that there’re the potential problems of social media. Things like cyberbullying, screen addiction, and being exposed to endless filtered images (美颜) that make it impossible not to make comparisons between yourself and others often make the news. In July, a big study came out in the journal JAMA titled “Association of Screen Time and Depression in Adolescence.” This big headline seems to confirm what a lot of people have been saying-screen time is horrible for young people.
The study followed over 3800 adolescents over four years as part of a drug and alcohol prevention program. Part of what the investigators measured was the teens’ amount of screen time, including time spent on social media, as well as their levels of depression symptoms. One of their main findings was that higher amounts of social media use were associated with higher levels of depression. That was true both when the researches compared between people and compared each person against their own mental health over time.
Case closed? Not so fast. Before we end the debate once and for all, let’s take a closer look at this and other studies. Let’s ask ourselves: what exactly is the relationship between social media use and depression? It turns out there are several warnings.
12. Why do people sometimes feel bad when looking through Instagram?
A. They feel unbalanced.
B. They can travel nowhere.
C. They don’t look perfect.
D. They lack contact with old friends.
13. Why is the article in journal JAMA mentioned?
A. To comment. B. To suggest.
C. To prove. D. To explore.
14. Which may agree with the findings of the study?
A. Teens’ amount of screen time is limited.
B. Depression is related to social media use
C. It is not easy to tell reasons for depression.
D. Social media use contributes to mental health.
15. What’s the best title of the text?
A. How to reduce depression?
B. Shall people reduce screen time?
C. Does social media cause depression?
D. Why is it time to give up social media?
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. C
【解析】
这是一篇议论文。本文主要讲述了关于社交媒体与抑郁症之间的一些研究调查，强调了其之间的因果复杂性。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段内容“Sometimes, looking through Instagram just makes you feel bad.

【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段内容：In July, a big study came out in the journal JAMA titled “Association of Screen Time and Depression in Adolescence.” This big headline seems to confirm what a lot of people have been saying-screen time is horrible for young people.( 今年7月，《美国医学会杂志》(JAMA)发表了一项名为《屏幕时间与青春期抑郁的关系》的大型研究。“这个大标题似乎证实了很多人一直在说的——屏幕时间对年轻人来说是可怕的。)可知该文章证实了屏幕时间对年轻人来说是可怕的，从而支持了本段论点：People are increasingly suspect that there’re the potential problems of social media.( 人们越来越怀疑社交媒体的潜在问题。)，因此可知提及该文章是为了证明支持论点。故选C项。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段内容“One of their main findings was that higher amounts of social media use were associated with higher levels of depression. ( 他们的主要发现之一是，使用社交媒体的次数越多，抑郁症的程度越高。)”可知，使用社交媒体的频率与抑郁症程度有关，因此选项B. Depression is related to social media use.( 抑郁与社交媒体使用有关。)为正确陈述。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章体裁为议论文，首段提出本文话题：Is there a link between social media and depression? Do Facebook and Instagram have a negative impact on your mental health? It’s complicated.( 社交媒体和抑郁症之间有联系吗?Facebook和社交平台对你的心理健康有负面影响吗?它是复杂的。)可知，本文主要讨论了关于社交媒体与抑郁症之间的一些研究调查，强调了其之间的因果复杂性。选项C. Does social media cause depression?( 社交媒体会导致抑郁症吗?)贴合主旨要义，为最佳标题。故选C项。

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项为多余选项。
Why Do Brides Wear White
In many societies the color white has been associated with purity and virtue, and that is one reason why some brides choose to wear white, especially in the West. Usually, you will hear that brides wear white because “it’s a tradition”. But, historically, white was not the only color considered for wedding dresses. ____16____
For many centuries in Western societies, wedding dresses had different colors. ____17____ Brides tended to buy a wedding dress that could be worn again, or they simply wore the best dress they already owned. And white is not practical: it is difficult to keep clean and is therefore not ideal for many situations or for repeated wear.
Many brides chose to wear dresses of other colors for their wedding and beyond. ____18____ They do so largely thanks to a trend that started with Queen Victoria’s 1840 wedding to Prince Albert.
____19____ Although not in as many different media as we have now, they still had a tendency to be trendsetting. So Victoria chose to wear a white gown (女礼服)—reportedly to show off the fine detailed Honiton lace produced by the British lace industry, which was depressed at the time. Her fashion choice was widely reported in newspapers and magazines. ____20____ Eventually, the trend of a white wedding gown spread across all economic levels and it was strengthened as “tradition” in the 20th century.
A. So why do so many of today’s brides wear white?
B. But why are brides so particular about their dresses?
C. Royal weddings in those years received a lot of reporting.
D. It reflected the growth of the wedding industry at that time.
E. It soon influenced domestic and international wedding trends.
F. In fact, other colors were chosen far more frequently than white.
G. This was for reasons of being practical as much as anything else.
【答案】16. F 17. G 18. A 19. C 20. E
【解析】

这是一篇议论文。文章主要讲述了新娘选择白色婚纱的原因。
【16题详解】
根据前文“ But, historically, white was not the only color considered for wedding dresses.”可知从历史上看，白色并不是婚纱的唯一颜色，因此设空句应对此进行进一步的解释或总结，应提及核心词“color”，同时呼应前文的“not the only color”。选项F. In fact, other colors were chosen far more frequently than white.( 事实上，人们选择其他颜色的频率远远高于选择白色。)呼应了前文的白色不是唯一的选择，而且提及了其他颜色，符合语境分析。故选F项。
【17题详解】
根据前文“For many centuries in Western societies, wedding dresses had different colors.”可知几个世纪以来，在西方社会，婚纱有不同的颜色，因此设空句应对此进行解释“为什么会有各种颜色的婚纱”。选项G. This was for reasons of being practical as much as anything else.( 这既是出于实际考虑，也是出于其他考虑。)解释了原因，即实用性以及其他方面的因素。故选G项。
【18题详解】
根据后文“They do so largely thanks to a trend that started with Queen Victoria’s 1840 wedding to Prince Albert(这在很大程度上要归功于1840年维多利亚女王与阿尔伯特亲王的婚礼)”解释了为什么“他们”会选择白色婚纱，因此设空句应是问句，问及关于选择白色婚纱的问题。选项A. So why do so many of today’s brides wear white?( 那么为什么现在这么多的新娘都穿白色呢?)为问句，且问及白色婚纱的选择，符合语境。故选 A项。
【19题详解】
设空句为本段主旨句，根据后文“Although not in as many different media as we have now, they still had a tendency to be trendsetting. So Victoria chose to wear a white gown—reportedly to show off the fine detailed Honiton lace produced by the British lace industry, which was depressed at the time. Her fashion choice was widely reported in newspapers and magazines.( 尽管没有我们现在拥有的那么多不同的媒体，他们仍然有引领潮流的趋势。因此，维多利亚选择了一件白色礼服——据报道，这是为了炫耀由英国蕾丝工业生产的精细的霍尼顿花边，当时英国的蕾丝工业正处于萧条时期。她的时尚选择被报纸和杂志广泛报道。)”可知，通过媒体，维多利亚女王的婚纱受到了关注，因此本段主要讲述了皇室婚礼与媒体的关系。选项C. Royal weddings in those years received a lot of reporting.( 那些年的皇室婚礼收到了很多报道。)贴合主旨要义，符合语境。故选C项。
【20题详解】
根据前文“Her fashion choice was widely reported in newspapers and magazines.”可知她的时尚选择被报纸和杂志广泛报道。因此设空句应是进一步解释广泛报道的结果，比如提及大家深受影响，纷纷效仿。选项E. It soon influenced domestic and international wedding trends.( 它很快就影响了国内外的婚礼潮流。)解释了广泛报道后的影响，符合语境分析。故选E项。
【点睛】七选五技巧之词语复现显神功
作者或说话人在谈论某个话题或主题时，与主题相关的词语必定会以原词，同义词，近义词，或上义词与下义词的形式在上下文中重复出现。比如文章第4小题：
____4____ Although not in as many different media as we have now, they still had a tendency to be trendsetting. So Victoria chose to wear a white gown (女礼服)—reportedly to show off the fine detailed Honiton lace produced by the British lace industry, which was depressed at the time. Her fashion choice was widely reported in newspapers and magazines.
通过阅读可知，本题应是主旨句。结合后文提及的“media, reportedly，reported，newspapers，magazines”均为与报道有关的词汇，因此可知，它们与设空句为“复现”。分析选项可知，选项C. Royal weddings in those years received a lot of reporting.中含有“reporting”，因此可为正确答案。

【点睛】完型填空题连词选择之转折关系
连词选择在完型填空题中是高频出现的题型之一，在做此类题目时，需要判断前后句之间的逻辑关系，如果前后句之间为转折关系，就要选择转折连词或转折副词。常用逻辑连接词有but, yet, however, on the contrary, on the other hand.比如文章第看看这样的问题我们应该怎样解决。
My old green Blazer SUV was doing wonderfully over the ____4____ roadway. ____5____ as I climbed one of the steepest and scariest hills, I noticed the tires were slipping, and I decided it was time to ____6____ to four-wheel drive.
5. A. But B. Or C. So D. And
我们看这道题的四个选项，就是让我们选择逻辑关系词，所以，我们首先要判断前后两句的逻辑关系。上文说“ was doing wonderfully over ”可知，行驶状况良好，而这句表达当我爬上一座最陡峭、最可怕的山时，我注意到轮胎在打滑。从这两句话，我们可以是转折关系。因此，纵观四个选项，只有A表示转折，为正确答案。

第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）
阅读短文内容，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
They’re neither medical workers in close contact with the novel coronavirus nor government officials who receive the ____36____ (late) updates of the situation — yet they’re keeping us ____37____ (inform)of the development of the epidemic. They are the media, and their eyes are far-seeing.

The eyes of the media are not just here to see, but ____39____ (examine).

42. that 43. their
44. the 45. for
【解析】
【分析】
这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了媒体工作者在抗击“新型冠状病毒”引发的肺炎疫情中的作用。
【36题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意：他们既不是与新型冠状病毒密切接触的医务人员，也不是收到最新情况的政府官员——但他们一直向我们通报疫情的发展。分析可知，the ____1____ (late) updates of the situation应是“the +形容词最高级+名词”短语结构。故填latest。
【37题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：他们既不是与新型冠状病毒密切接触的医务人员，也不是收到最新情况的政府官员——但他们一直向我们通报疫情的发展。keep sb. +doing/done, 非谓语结构作宾语补足语。本题中的动词inform与宾语之间为被动关系，应用过去分词形式。故填informed。
【38题详解】
考查名词。句意：朱兴新就是其中一员：一名《中国日报》的摄影师。分析句子结构可知，a ____3____ (photograph)应是“冠词+可数名词单数”结构，此处指“一名摄影师”。故填photographer。
【39题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意：媒体的眼睛不仅仅是用来观察的，而是用来审视的。分析可知，本句应是“not just…but…”结构，意为“不仅仅是……而是……”，应是并列结构，因此所填空应与之前的“to see”为并列结构。故填to examine。
【40题详解】
考查时态和被动。句意：例如，2月9日，武汉一辆载着重症患者的公交车陷入交通堵塞，无人领路，也没有医院声称对其负责。分析可知，所填空应是句子谓语，且与主语“a bus”之间为被动关系，结合时间“On Feb 9”应是一般过去时被动：was done。故填was caught。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：最后，所有的病人都被妥善安置在医院，负责的官员也被追究责任。根据并列连词and可知，“all the patients ____6__ (settle)”应与“officials in charge being held responsible”为并列结构，所填动词应是being done结构。故填being settled。
【42题详解】
考查主语从句。句意：但如果没有记者，这一事件可能永远不会被曝光。分析可知，“____7____ without journalists this incident would never have been exposed”应是主语从句，it为形式主语。结合句意可知，从句结构完整，应是陈述事实，应用只起连接作用、无实意的that引导。故填that。
【43题详解】
考查形容词性物主代词。句意：“我真的希望通过写他们的故事，我能帮助事情变得更好。”《中国日报》记者李学清说。分析可知，空后为名词stories，所填空应是形容词性物主代词作定语。故填their。
【44题详解】
考查冠词。句意：“我真的希望通过写他们的故事，我能帮助事情变得更好。”《中国日报》记者李学清说。结合句子“I’m helping things change for ____9____ better”含义可知，记者希望通过报道使事情向更好的方向发展，通常有表示原因、理由或条件的短语或从句存在时，在比较级前可用the表示程度，“by writing about ____8____ (they) stories”为表述其条件的短语，符合分析。故填the。
【45题详解】
考查介词。句意：实际上，媒体就像一双为我们注视世界的眼睛，因为他们报道着世界上最重要的消息。分析可知，空后为人称代词宾格形式，所填空应是介词，根据句意可知，此处应用介词for“为了”。故填for。
【点睛】语法填空之谓语动词
①有提示词
②与主语构成主谓结构
判断要填的动词是谓语动词还是非谓语动词，句子没有别的谓语动词，或者虽然已有谓语动词，但所填的动词与之是并列关系时，所给动词在句子中作谓语，就要考虑时态和语态。比如文章的第5小题：
On Feb 9, for example, a bus in Wuhan carrying severely ill patients ____5____ (catch) in traffic with no one guiding them and no hospitals claiming them.
本句主语为“a bus”，没有其他谓语动词存在，因此空5应作谓语动词，同时考虑其与主语的关系为被动关系，应用被动语态结构。句子时间状语为“On Feb 9”，因此应是一般过去时被动。因此答案为was caught。

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。续写的词数应为150左右。
An old wooden seat that Susan extremely valued often reminded her of mother’s Golden Rule.
Back in the 1930s, the country life was really tough. One day after dinner, Susan’s mother sat on the seat, announcing to the children the Golden Rule: “Treat others the way you want to be treated.” Susan reflected carefully and seriously on what her mother had said. She resolved that she would keep in mind and follow the rule.
One Saturday afternoon, she went to farmer Jason’s inn (小旅馆) to get the pay for her mother’s washing for the guests there, which amounted to five dollars. She found Jason in the yard, who, as all the villagers knew, was selfish and mean.
His eyes clouded with anger, as he had just finished a quarrel with one of his guests. He held in his hand an open wallet, full of bills. He barely noticed Susan until she made her request for the money. Instead of shouting at her, as usual, for troubling him when he was busy, he handed her a bank note.
Feeling relieved for escaping from Jason so easily, Susan hurried out of the inn. When carefully putting the money into her pocket, she discovered that Jason had given her two bills instead of one, and her first reaction was joy at the unexpected prize. She looked around and there was nobody nearby to share her discovery. “It is mine. All mine.” she said to herself. “I will buy mum a new coat with it, and she can give her old one to sister Mary, and then Mary can go to the Sunday school with me next winter. I wonder if I can buy a pair of shoes for brother Tom too.”
Just at that moment, she realized that Jason must have given the extra money to her by mistake, and therefore she had no right to own it. But a voice of temptation (诱惑) whispered, “He gave it, and you can keep it. He will never know, even if it is a mistake. ”
As Susan hurried home, this conflict went on in her mind.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Susan’s face became red with embarrassment and annoyance.
_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】As Susan hurried home, this conflict went on in her mind. When she passed through the gate, her eyes fell upon the wooden seat. Instantly, the words of the Golden Rule rang in her ears. Turning around quickly, she raced along the road breathlessly until she found herself again at farmer Jason’s gate. “Why are you back again?” shouted the cold fellow angrily, as he saw Susan again at his side. “Sir, you gave me two bills, instead of one,” she said in a trembling voice. “Two bills? Did I? Let me see. Well, so I did. Why didn’t you bring it back sooner? You want to keep it yourself?” he blamed.
Susan’s face became red with embarrassment and annoyance. Tears rolling down her cheeks, she loudly argued that she returned it almost the moment she discovered the truth. Jason looked at the child, seemingly touched. Putting his hand in his pocket, he drew out a few coins and handed them to her. “No, sir. I thank you,” sobbed Susan, “I do not want to be paid for doing right. I only wish you would not think me dishonest.” After hearing this, Jason said sorry to her, ashamed. Susan returned home with a lightened heart. Never would she forget her mother’s Golden rule in her life.
【解析】
【分析】
本篇书面表达是读后续写。
【详解】通过阅读所给文章可知，文章讲述了Susan在帮妈妈向Jason索要洗衣费的时候，收到了两张纸币，其中一张是Jason不小心多拿出的，在是否将这张多余的纸币据为己有的矛盾中，Susan最终选择了将其还给Jason。
续写部分分为两段，第一段开头是：As Susan hurried home, this conflict went on in her mind. (当Susan匆忙赶回家时，这个矛盾在她的脑海里继续着。)所以应该写Susan回到家看到那把木制椅子时的感触，想到妈妈的教导，而把多余的钱还给Jason，同时应描写Jason和Susan之间关于还钱的对话，包括Jason的疑惑，质问等；第二段开头是Susan’s face became red with embarrassment and annoyance. ( Susan又尴尬又恼怒，脸都红了。) 本段应该写Susan对于Jason质问的回答，同时Jason对于Susan回答的反应，比如给与奖励，同时呼应文章主题“己所不欲勿施于人”，应描写Susan对此做出的回应，比如拒绝奖励，诚实地表达出个人的想法等。要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右，按要求完成写作任务。
【点睛】本文描写详略得当，使用了高级词汇和高级句子。如：1.高级词汇：fall upon on; roll down; draw out; hand sth. to sb.2.复合句式：“Why are you back again?” shouted the cold fellow angrily, as he saw Susan again at his side. (as引导时间状语从句)Tears rolling down her cheeks, she loudly argued that she returned it almost the moment she discovered the truth .(“tears rolling down her cheeks”为独立主格结构，表伴随；the moment 引导时间状语从句。)Putting his hand in his pocket, he drew out a few coins and handed them to her. (putting his hand in his pocket为现在分词作状语)Never would she forget her mother’s Golden rule in her life.(否定词置于句首，部分倒装)
