Ⅵ.读后续写

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。

One day in 2001,when I was eight years old,my family and I were coming back from a baseball game,which was our usual weekend adventure.But unlike other weekends,a surprise was waiting for us.Two adult wild geese and a small wild goose were wandering around our yard.The adults were frightened by us and flew away,but their baby was still too young to fly and couldn’t follow.

It was freezing cold when night fell.Concerned about the wild goose’s safety,we begged Dad to protect the little guy.Dad took the tiny little thing to the back porch(门廊) to keep warm and protect him from wild animals.The small wild goose seemed in a panic,unaware of what could happen.The next morning,we try to drive the wild goose over to his parents,who kept coming back to our yard.He wouldn’t go to them,and they wouldn’t come close to take him.We kept this up for six days,but no luck.By then,the young wild goose had clearly decided we were his new family.My sister Anna called the little guy Peeper,because he would follow us around the yard making a peeping noise,nonstop.Every time we called his name,he would respond.We also decided that Peeper was a boy.I don’t know why;it just felt right.

Days turned into weeks,and weeks turned into months until almost a year passed.Peeper liked to sleep on our back porch each night,and every day my dad would clean up all the goose droppings(鸟兽的粪便) carefully.Dad would throw Peeper up into the air so he could fly a circle around the house,coming back again once the porch was clean.

注意:续写词数应为150左右。

One day,my dad threw him up in the air as usual,but this time,Peeper just flew off. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

To my amazement,in 2021,an aging adult wild goose came to my home.____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Section C　Using Language & Assessing Your Progress

Ⅰ.1.expenses　2.setting　3.to grasp　4.more　5.on

6.to　7.In　8.denying　9.for　10.getting

Ⅱ.1.side with　2.As far as I know　3.cost you an arm and a leg　4.ended up　5.Generally speaking　6.contribute to　7.feels like　8.sounds like　9.have trouble with　10.start with

Ⅲ.1.No wonder so many people　2.Grasping details of a passage　3.As children get older

Ⅳ.【语篇导读】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了英式下午茶的起源。

1.who　考查定语从句。分析句子的结构可知,设空处应填关系词引导定语从句,先行词为those,指人,关系词在从句中作主语,应使用关系代词who。

2.nicer　考查形容词的比较级。根据语境及空后的than可知,此处应使用nice的比较级作表语。故填nicer。

3.a　考查冠词。take a break“休息一下”,是固定短语。故填a。

4.is included　考查动词的时态和语态。分析句子结构可知,此空是名词性从句中的谓语动词,结合语境可知此处描述下午茶的内容,应用一般现在时,且主语what,和动词include之间是被动关系,应用一般现在时的被动语态。故填is included。

5.drinking　考查动名词。分析句子结构可知,此处要用动词-ing形式作介词of的宾语,故填drinking。

6.appeared　考查动词的时态。主句是not...until...的强调句型,分析句子结构可知,此空作谓语,根据时间状语“not until the mid-17th century”可知,应用一般过去时,故填appeared。

7.hungry　考查形容词。分析句子结构可知,此空放在was后,应该用形容词作表语,故填hungry。

8.to break　考查动词不定式。在“be+性质形容词+to do”结构中,用不定式的主动形式表示被动含义,故填to break。

9.During/In　考查介词。年代前应该用介词,during/in the 1880s“在19世纪80年代”,故填During或In。

10.gloves　考查名词复数。glove为可数名词,且在此处和gowns、hats并列作put on的宾语,所以要用名词复数形式,故填gloves。

Ⅴ.Dear Peter,

I am delighted to know that you are interested in Chinese folk culture and determined to do practical research in a place of China.I highly recommend my hometown—Weifang and extend my warmest welcome to you.

Weifang is famous for the folk wood-block painting and kite production.First of all,New Year painting is the most eye-catching type of folk art in Weifang,which has a history of more than 600 years.Besides,Kite-flying is a traditional custom in Weifang,which regards itself as the“International Kite Capital” and holds an international kite festival every year in the spring.

Looking forward to your reply.

Yours,

Li Hua

Ⅵ.　　One day,my dad threw him up in the air as usual,but this time,Peeper just flew off.Everyone was very,very sad.We looked for him for days,calling his name,but he didn’t come back.We hoped he found a flock and went off on his natural way.Again,days turned into weeks and weeks turned into months,and then years.I missed my little buddy,and I would call for him every time I saw a flock of Canadian geese fly by in V-formation.Twenty years passed,and Peeper became a fond memory for my family.

To my amazement,in 2021,an aging adult wild goose came to my home.At first,I assumed it was just another wild goose.After two weeks,it became clear to me that this wasn’t a random wild goose.He did all of the same things Peeper used to,like trying to come in through the front door.In addition to mimicking Peeper’s old ways,this wild goose also responded to the name Peeper.Much to my amazement,my old best friend had returned,20 years later.
