It may sound unreal, but such a person does exist in real life. Li Ziqi, 30, has become one of China's most popular celebrities with 9 million followers on YouTube, 34 million on Douyin and 22 million on Weibo. Li Ziqi's videos featuring her cooking and creating DIY products greatly attract people living in big cities. To our amazement, she does it all without using any modern technology or electricity. What dominate her videos are scenes of picking seasonal ingredients from her own garden and sometimes in the mountains and turning them into tasty dishes on her wood-fired pot. Li stresses the seasons in her cooking, as China's traditional 24 solar terms also do, and makes food suitable for the particular climate. There came an intense debate about the image of China and its culture she presented. She was accused of presenting an “outdated” image of the country by some critics. Nevertheless, state broadcaster CCTV and People's Daily praised her for her initiative to help rural youths become rich. Li Ziqi, by telling an inspiring Chinese story, is promoting traditional Chinese culture to the international audience. 【译文】 年度文化传播人物 想象一下,一位年轻的中国女子,穿着传统的衣服,在田野里摘花,为她的脸颊制作化妆品, 用竹子做沙发,自己做各种美味的中国食物。 这听起来可能不真实,但这样的人确实存在于 现实生活中。 李子柒,30 岁,已经成为中国最受欢迎的名人之一。她在 YouTube 上有 900 万名粉丝,抖 音上有 3,400 万名粉丝,微博上有 2,200 万名粉丝。 李子柒的视频以她的烹饪和创造 DIY 产品为特色,极大地吸引了生活在大城市的人们。 令我们惊讶的是,她做这一切都没有使用任何现代技术或电力。 在她的视频中主要是她从自己的花园里挑选季节性食材的场景,有时是在山里,然后在 她的柴火灶上把它们变成美味菜肴。 李强调她烹饪的季节性,就像中国传统的二十四节气 一样,做出各种时令美食。 她展现的中国的形象及其文化引发了激烈的争论。 她被一些评论家指责展示了一个 “过时”的国家形象。 然而,中国中央电视台和《人民日报》赞扬她主动帮助农村青年致富。 李子柒正在通过讲述一个鼓舞人心的中国故事,向国际观众推广中国传统文化。 第一部分 听力(共两节,满分 30 分) ☆关注主书封底“3·2 学习云空间”,免费下载听力材料音频。 第一节 (共 5 小题;每小题 1.5 分,满分 7.5 分) 听下面 5 段对话。每段对话后有一个小题,从题中所给的 A、B、C 三个选项中选出最 佳选项。听完每段对话后,你都有 10 秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对 话仅读一遍。 1.What did the woman drop?

It looks like a wallet. W:Oh? It's my passport! Thank you so much for picking it up! It must have fallen from my bag. Text 2 M:This coffee tastes bad. Are the coffee beans old? Did you clean the pot? W:It must be the water. I used tap water instead of bottled water this time. Text 3 W:The museum has extra hours on Thursday this week. We could finally go after work. M:I was planning to play basketball that night, but...I can change it to Friday. Text 4 M:We haven't seen snow for three years. Let's drive to the mountains this winter. W:We can invite my parents, too. They can play with the kids while we go skiing. Text 5 W:The weather is changing so much! One day, it's hot. The next day, it's very cold. After that, the strong winds blow... It's so confusing! M:It's so annoying, because I'm getting sick from it! Pass me the cold medicine. Text 6 W:My dad is coming to pick me up from school in about ten minutes, Mr. Daniels. M:Oh, good! I've been meaning to talk to him about a class trip. W:We're going on a trip? M:Well, I was going to ask your father if he would let us visit his factory in March. He and his workers create such beautiful musical instruments! I think the music students will be excited to watch the process of making the same instruments that they play in class. W:Oh, I'm sure my dad will allow it. He loves to teach young people about what he does. Text 7 M:Hey, Jennifer, I have some great news. Your aunt Emma will be moving here in April with her mom. She's coming from super far away. W:Like outer space? M:No, she's not from outer space. She's from Tokyo. Do you know where it is? W:Yeah, it's in Japan. My friend Rika's grandmother is from there. M:That's right! Well, Emma was working in London for a while, and that's where she met your uncle Frank last December. They went back to her home country to get married, and now they're going to move back to America. W:I can't wait to meet her. Will she be here for my birthday in July? M:Yes, she will! Text 8 W:Aren't you hungry? You always wait until 2:00 p.m. to eat a small lunch. M:Sometimes I am. But I've been doing this for so long that it doesn't bother me. I feel healthier this way. W:You probably have no energy in the early afternoon, though! How do you concentrate at work? M:Actually, it's the opposite. I even work out at the gym at noon, instead of taking a lunch break. W:Well, do you drink any water? M:Definitely. I drink lots of water. And soon after I wake up at 8:00 a.m., I drink green tea. I have about four cups of it before noon! W:It sounds strange to me, but if it makes you feel better... M:It does. I feel so much more alive! Text 9 W:Harry, are you good at saving money? M:I think I used to be good at saving money. W:When did that stop and why did it stop? M:I don't know. As you get older there's just so much stuff you need to spend money on. Money just keeps going out of your wallet for reasons you don't even know. W:I think I'm pretty good at saving money actually. M:You are? W:Yes, I am. Why do you seem so surprised? M:How much of your pocket money(零花钱) would you save? W:I think I save ten percent of my pocket money. M:That's really amazing. I don't think I can save any money. I have to spend every cent I have and I don't know why. W:Saving is a habit. You get adapted to it, and you know that's what my mom taught me. I think I just grew with it that you need to save money and once you start doing it, it becomes easier. It becomes like an obligation(责任). M:I think you need to teach me sometime because I'm hopeless. W:I'll give you a few tips. Text 10 Here is a piece of news for bird lovers. Scientists have painted a long road red, yellow and white. They help to discourage the sea birds from wandering onto the highway. The area is home to large crowds of birds that come to stay for the season. Young birds are often attracted to the warm road's surface and get killed by the traffic. The biology student, Hannah tells the broadcaster. The youngster's feathers are brown in color. The dark-colored road surface makes the youngster hard to be noticed. As the number of tourists has grown, so has the amount of traffic on the roads. Biologist Christen says the plan is to see how the birds respond to the multi-colored road this summer, and if it works, the idea could spread to other parts of the country. 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 (2020 山西月考) Thrift Books Library Program Thrift Books sells millions of used books at the lowest prices.

Then she said, “I shook my head, and then they said ‘yes’ and it was announced again.” It was four days after that life-changing moment for the seventeen-year-old high school student from Destrehan, Louisiana—she was still on cloud nine. “I was so shocked! I never believed that it could actually really happen.” The audience(观众) that day included her mother and father, her older brother, her friends and her dance teacher. Understanding why members of her family and her friends would be there, AT asked why her dance teacher had traveled so far to see her competition. “She's always been my role model. I've danced with her since I was six. She's been through so many difficulties and came through them all. I've learned to get over bad life experiences and learned how to move on because of her.” One of those bad life experiences for Shelley happened three years ago when her brother Brad was killed in a drunk driving accident. He was 18. She found writing helped her get through the rough days. She said, “I write a lot about my brother. I write a lot, a lot, a lot...” As Miss Louisiana Teen, she traveled around the state speaking to teens about the dangers of drunk driving. In her role as Miss Teen USA, Shelley will continue to speak to the youth about safe driving, in addition to many other things to help the youth.

William was a good reader, but at the age of fifteen he left school, and worked in a drug store and later on a Texas farm. After that, he moved to Houston, where he had a number of jobs, including the bank clerk. After moving to Austin, Texas, in 1882, he married. In 1884 he started a humorous weekly The Rolling Stone.

Each day, 27 kids entered “The Thinking Laboratory”. That was the name students voted for after deciding that “Room 104” was too dull. Freddy was an average student, but not an average person. He had the rare balance between fun and compassion(同情). He would laugh the loudest over fun and be the saddest over anyone's misfortune. Before the school year ended, I gave the kids special gifts, T-shirts with the words “Verbs Are Your Friends” on them. I had advised the kids that while verbs(动词)may seem dull, most of the fun things they do throughout their lives will be verbs. Through the years, I'd run into former students who would provide updates for old classmates. I learned that Freddy did several jobs after his graduation from high school and remained the same caring person I met forty years ago. Once, while working overnight at a store, he let a homeless man sleep in his truck. Another time, he lent a friend money to buy a house. Just last year, I was conducting a workshop when someone knocked at the classroom door. A woman excused the interruption and handed me an envelope. I stopped teaching and opened it up. Inside were the “Verbs” shirt and a note from Freddy's mother. “Freddy passed away on Thanksgiving. He wanted you to have this.” I told the story to the class. Sad as it was, I couldn't help smiling. Although Freddy was taken from us, we all took something from Freddy. 32.What do the underlined words “The Thinking Laboratory” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A.The elementary school where the kids studied. B.“Room 104”in which the kids studied. C.The workshop in which the kids carried out experiments. D.The high school which was fun as well as dull. 33.What can we learn about the author? A.She hardly kept in touch with her former students. B.She wrote the passage in 2013 or so. C.She was very strict with her students. D.She gave the kids special gifts after the school year. 34.Which of the following words can best describe Freddy? A.Modest and daring. B.Outstanding and calm. C.Generous and creative. D.Warm-hearted and caring. 35.What's the author's attitude towards Freddy? A.Cautious. B.Disapproving. C.Uninterested. D.Appreciative. 答案 [语篇解读] 本文主要讲了作者的一个学生 Freddy 既有趣又有同情心。在小学毕业前,作者 送给学生们每人一件衬衫,告诫学生“动词”在人生中的重要性。而 Freddy 在毕业后也保持 着乐于助人的品质,但不幸的是,他在若干年后去世了,而那件衬衫也回到了作者的手中,作者 以及她的学生都从他身上学到了一些宝贵的品质。 32.B 推理判断题。根据第一段中的 That was the name students voted for after deciding that “Room 104” was too dull.“学生们认为‘104 号房间’太过沉闷,于是投票选了这个名字。”可推 知,“The Thinking Laboratory”就是“104 号房间”。故选 B。 33.B 推理判断题。根据第一段第一句 In 1973, I was teaching in an elementary school.“1973 年,我在一所小学教书。”和第四段第二句 I learned that Freddy did several jobs after his graduation from high school and remained the same caring person I met forty years ago.“我了解 到 Freddy 高中毕业后做了几份工作,仍然是我 40 年前遇到的同一个有爱心的人。”可推知, 这篇文章是作者在 2013 年左右写的。故选 B。 34.D 推理判断题。根据第四段中的 I learned that Freddy did several jobs after his graduation from high school and remained the same caring person I met forty years ago. Once, while working overnight at a store, he let a homeless man sleep in his truck. Another time, he lent a friend money to buy a house.“我了解到 Freddy 高中毕业后做了几份工作,仍然是我 40 年前遇 到的同一个有爱心的人。有一次,他在一家商店通宵工作,让一个无家可归的人睡在他的卡 车里。还有一次,他借钱给朋友买房子。”可推知,Freddy 心地善良且关心他人。故选 D。 35.D 意图态度题。根据最后一段中的 Sad as it was, I couldn't help smiling. Although Freddy was taken from us, we all took something from Freddy.“尽管很伤心,我还是忍不住微笑。虽然 Freddy 已经离开了我们,但我们都从 Freddy 身上得到了一些东西。”可知,作者对 Freddy 是 “赞赏的”。故选 D。 第二节 (共 5 小题;每小题 2.5 分,满分 12.5 分) 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。 (2020 山东聊城高二上期中) How to Discover Your Talent Talents tend to refer to some inborn skills that everyone seems to be born with. 36 . It's good to try to identify and practice that skill. Revisit your childhood. A good way to figure out where your talents lie is to go back to your childhood. 37 . This was often the time when you had plans that weren't limited by what people tended to think of as “reality”. Consider what it is you do when you lose track of time. One of the chief things you can do is focus on what you love to do so that you have a tendency to forget everything else for a while. 38 . You might have to research a bit deeper into the things you enjoy to discover what makes you feel satisfied. 39 . Sometimes, when you're having difficulty seeing clearly, it's good to get an outside opinion. Your friends and family members know you well and they should be able to offer you some insights into the areas they think you're talented in. Try new things. Especially if you're not sure what your talents might be, you should get out and try new things. This way you're more likely to hit on what it is that you're really good at and that really makes you happy. 40 . In your quest for your own talents you should look into the talents of other people. A.Consider what you loved to do as a child B.Ask others for better advice C.You can use your talents in the service of kindness D.Focus on the areas that you're less talented in E.Not all talents are going to be super obvious F.Observe and enjoy the talents of other people G.It's true that having a talent can help you in life 答案 [语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文,介绍了关于如何发现自己的天赋的几点建议。 36.G 根据本空后的“It's good to try to identify and practice that skill.”可知,努力去发现和练 习这种技能是很好的,此处是说拥有天赋的好处,故 G 项(的确,拥有一种天赋在生活中会帮助 你)符合语境。 37.A 根据本空前的“A good way to figure out where your talents lie is to go back to your childhood.”可知,要想知道你在哪方面有天赋,一个好办法就是回到你的童年时代,此处承接 上文,故 A 项(想想你小时候喜欢做什么)符合语境。 38.E 根据本空后的“You might have to research a bit deeper into the things you enjoy to discover what makes you feel satisfied.”可知,你可能需要深入研究你喜欢的事情才能发现什 么让你感到满足,此处是说有时候天赋不是那么容易被发现的,故 E 项(并不是所有的天赋都 是显而易见的)符合语境。 39.B 根据本空后的“Sometimes, when you're having difficulty seeing clearly, it's good to get an outside opinion.”可知,当你看不清楚的时候,最好听听外界的意见,本段讲的是寻求他人的 建议,故 B 项(向别人征求更好的建议)符合语境。 40.F 根据本空后的“In your quest for your own talents you should look into the talents of other people.”可知,寻找自己的天赋时,你应该看看别人的天赋,此处讲的是有关别人的天赋,故 F 项(观察并欣赏他人的天赋)符合语境。 第三部分 语言运用(共两节,满分 30 分) 第一节 (共 15 小题;每小题 1 分,满分 15 分) 阅读下面短文,从每题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选 项。 (2020 山东青岛黄岛高二上期中) I was getting ready to go to bed when the phone rang. This could not be 41 . My mind 42 through the list of family members who might need help, but the voice was hardly 43 . “Lindy, this is Lesley.” I didn't know Lesley well. We did 44 speak with each other, but to say we were friends was not 45 . Perhaps something really 46 caused her to reach someone she barely knew. 47 , she only asked me, “Do you have room for a turkey in your freezer?” We had lots of room in our freezer, and 48 , too much. “Sure,” I responded, “did your freezer break down?” “Not 49 ,” Lesley replied, “and I will explain when I arrive.” Minutes later came a huge freezer truck. Lesley stepped down and explained the lease(租约) of the grocery store her husband serviced had run out and that they had to 50 all the freezers that night. Thinking it was a 51 to throw away all this good food, they decided to drop off food to anyone she could 52 . Noticing our freezer was pretty empty, Lesley asked to 53 it up. An hour later, everything was finished, I asked her, “When will you come back for all this?” Lesley laughed, “We don't want it back. It is yours! Thanks for helping us out!” “For helping them out?” We opened our freezer door. Inside were all expensive foods we never bought but often 54 to try. However, our needs were met in an 55 way. 41.A.exciting B.good C.frightening D.easy 42.A.looked B.fell C.broke D.raced 43.A.familiar B.sweet C.loud D.beautiful 44.A.frequently B.occasionally C.always D.hardly 45.A.embarrassing B.confusing C.appropriate D.ordinary 46.A.excellent B.attractive C.grateful D.awful 47.A.Instead B.Therefore C.Moreover D.Meanwhile 48.A.in total B.in a word C.in fact D.as a result 49.A.exactly B.clearly C.completely D.seriously 50.A.buy B.empty C.sell D.throw 51.A.shame B.punishment C.duty D.right 52.A.love B.catch C.think of D.recognize 53.A.bring B.lift C.use D.fill 54.A.volunteered B.pretended C.refused D.longed 55.A.ordinary B.unexpected C.efficient D.interesting 答案 41.B 根据上文的“I was getting ready to go to bed when the phone rang.”可知,在“我”准备睡 觉的时候电话响了,从所选词的感情色彩来讲,打搅了作者的睡眠是件不好的事。故选 B 项。 42.D 句意:“我”的脑海里掠过那些可能需要帮助的家庭成员的名单,但“我”对电话里的声音 不是很熟悉。race 意为“(头脑)快速转动”。故选 D 项。 43.A but 表示转折,前半句是“我”在脑海中找寻可能在这个时间打电话求助的家人,家人的 声音是熟悉的,由 but 可推理出电话里的声音是不熟悉的。故选 A 项。 44.B 根据上文的“I didn't know Lesley well.”可知,“我”跟莱斯莉不熟,从“We did(我们确 实)...”可推断出“我”和莱斯莉偶尔会交谈。故选 B 项。 45.C 根据下文的“someone she barely knew”可知,“我”和莱斯莉是不太认识的关系,按照逻 辑推理,“我们是朋友”的这个说法是不适当的。各选项意为:embarrassing 使人害羞 的;confusing 令人困惑的;appropriate 适当的;ordinary 普通的。故选 C 项。 46.D 根据下文的“caused her to reach someone she barely knew”并按照逻辑推理可知是发生 了一些糟糕的事情。excellent 优秀的;attractive 有魅力的;grateful 感激的;awful 糟糕的。故选 D 项。 47.A 根据下文的“only”的感情色彩判断出,所填词前后是相反含义。“我”以为莱斯莉打电 话给“我”这个不熟悉的人是发生了糟糕的事情,结果她只是问“我”家的冰箱有没有地方放火 鸡。instead 相反;therefore 因此;moreover 此外;meanwhile 同时。故选 A 项。 48.C 根据上文的“We had lots of room in our freezer”及下文的“too much”可知,我们的冰箱 还有很多空余的地方。in total 总共;in a word 总之;in fact 实际上;as a result 结果。故选 C 项。 49.A 结合上文“我”问是不是她的冰箱坏了,及下文“explained the lease(租约) of the grocery store her husband serviced had run out and that they had to...all the freezers that night”可知,原因 是杂货店的租约到期了,因此她的冰箱没坏,而是有其他缘故。用 not exactly“不完全是”最为 恰当。故选 A 项。 50.B 根据上文句意可知,杂货店的租约到期了,and 在此处表示递进,结合下文“they decided to drop off food to anyone...”可知,所填空是要把冷冻柜清空。故选 B 项。 51.A 根据下文的“throw away all this good food”,并根据常识可知,扔掉好食物是一件令人惋 惜的事。故选 A 项。 52.C 根据上文的“someone she barely knew”可知,“我”和莱斯莉是不太认识的关系,结合下 文莱斯莉说的“It is yours! Thanks for helping us out!”可知莱斯莉把火鸡送给了“我”,由此推理 出此处是送给她能想到的任何人。故选 C 项。 53.D 根据下文的“Inside were all expensive foods we never bought but often...to try.”可知,“我” 的冰箱里塞满了食物。因此所填空是把冰箱填满的含义。故选 D 项。 54.D 上文“we never bought but...”中的“but”表示转折,按照逻辑推理,虽然没买过,但是也想 去尝试,再结合下文“our needs were met”可确定所填空是“渴望”。故选 D 项。 55.B 整篇文章讲述了一件出乎意料的事情,一个不太熟的朋友打来一个电话,后来我们的 冰箱里塞满了从没买过的昂贵食物。所以此处应为“意料之外的”方式。故选 B 项。 第二节 (共 10 小题;每小题 1.5 分,满分 15 分) 阅读下面短文,在空白处填入 1 个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 (2020 山东济南高二上期中) Calligraphy (书法), 56 (consider) as one of the unique traditional Chinese arts, has a long history of about 1,000 years. It is not only a tool of cultural communication 57 an artistic treasure with shining and extraordinary beauty. As the representative of Chinese art, it 58 (know) as the most ancient artistic form in the eastern world. Calligraphy has influenced the world widely and has even been introduced to many neighboring 59 (country). To practise calligraphy 60 (require) the basic tools of the “scholar's four jewels” as well as much concentration on guiding the soft writing brush charged with fluid ink, and writing on the paper 61 the ink will spread quickly. Once the brush movement hesitates, a black mark is created, so speed, 62 (strong) and agility (敏捷) are the essence of a fine artwork. When writing, many calligraphers will forget all worries and even 63 (they), combining all thoughts in the beauty of their art. Thus it also can shape and improve a person's temper and promote well-being. Calligraphy, 64 a mirror, is a silent reflection of the soul.Today, although various modern ways have been substituted for the original calligraphy, 65 (especial) which is created with a writing brush, people still love the ancient form and practise it untiringly. 答案 56.considered 考查非谓语动词。Calligraphy 和 consider 之间是被动关系,这里是过去分词 作定语,故填 considered。 57.but 考查连词。句意:它不仅是一种文化交流的工具,更是一种闪耀的且具有非凡美的艺 术瑰宝。not only...but (also)...不但……而且……。故填 but。 58.is known 考查固定短语:be known as 意为“作为……而著称”。故填 is known。 59.countries 考查名词复数。many 后面跟名词复数,故填 countries。 60.requires 考查动词的时态和主谓一致。这里在讲述一个客观事实,所以句子用一般现在 时,动词不定式作主语,谓语动词用第三人称单数形式,故填 requires。 61.where 考查定语从句。分析句子可知,paper 作先行词,where 在定语从句中作地点状语。 62.strength 考查词性转换。分析句子结构,这里是并列的名词作主语,所给词 strong 是形容 词,其名词 strength 意为“力气,力量”,故填 strength。 63.themselves 考查反身代词。句意:许多书法家在书写时,会忘却一切烦恼,甚至忘了自己, 将一切思想融于艺术之美中。此处用反身代词作宾语,故填 themselves。 64.like 考查介词。句意:书法就像一面镜子,是心灵的无声反映。like“像……一样”,故填 like。 65.especially 考查副词。此处用副词修饰后面的定语从句,故填 especially。句意:虽然各种 各样的现代方式已经取代了原来的书法,特别是用毛笔创作的书法,但人们仍然热爱这种古 老的形式,并不懈地练习它。 第四部分 写作(共两节,满分 40 分) 第一节 应用文写作(满分 15 分) 假定你是李华,你的英国朋友 Lisa 正在学习中国绘画。市艺术博物馆将招聘暑期志愿 者,请你写封邮件邀请她一起报名。内容包括: 1.教小学生绘画; 2.维持游客秩序; 3.每周工作三天。 注意: 1.词数 80 左右; 2.可以适当增加细节,以使行文连贯。 答案 One possible version: Dear Lisa, I've got good news for us two. The Art Museum in our city is about to bring in volunteers for the summer vacation. Would you please have a try with me? The job of the volunteers is rather challenging. Teaching primary students to draw Chinese paintings, which is our major duty, will offer us a great chance to improve ourselves.

This is a pretty good opportunity for us to enrich our summer life, isn't it? Looking forward to hearing from you soon. Yours, Li Hua 第二节 读后续写(满分 25 分) 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。 Proudly reading my words, I glanced around the room, only to find my classmates bearing big smiles on their faces and tears in their eyes. Confused, I glanced at my stone-faced teacher. Having no choice, I slowly raised the report I had slaved over, hoping to hide myself. “What could be causing everyone to act this way?” Quickly, I flashed back to the day when Miss Lancelot gave me the task. This was the first real task I received in my new school. It seemed simple: go on the Internet and find information about a man named George Washington. Since my idea of history came from an ancient teacher in my home country, I had never heard of that name before. As I searched the name of this fellow, it became evident that there were two people bearing the same name who looked completely different! One invented hundreds of uses for peanuts, while the other led some sort of army across America. I stared at the screen, wondering which one my teacher meant. I called my grandfather for a golden piece of advice: flip (掷) a coin. Heads—the commander, and tails—the peanuts guy. Ah! Tails, my report would be about the great man who invented peanut butter, George Washington Carver. Weeks later, standing before this unfriendly mass, I was totally lost. Oh well, I lowered the paper and sat down at my desk, burning to find out what I had done wrong. As a classmate began to read his report, it all became clear, “My report is on George Washington, the man who started the American Revolution.” The whole world became quiet! How could I know that she meant that George Washington? Obviously, my grade was awful. Heartbroken but fearless, I decided to turn this around. I talked to Miss Lancelot, but she insisted: No re-dos;no new grade. I felt that the punishment was not reasonable, and I believed I deserved a second chance. 注意:续写的词数应为 150 左右。 答案 One possible version: Paragraph 1: Therefore, I threw myself heartily into my work for the rest of the school year. I often went to ask Miss Lancelot some questions about history. She was happy to see I was making a difference, “My kid, I sincerely wish to give you a chance but it's forbidden. Only by working hard can you get another chance to change your awful situation.” I thanked her for what she said, waiting patiently for the chance to come around. Paragraph 2: Ten months later, that chance came. It was a speech to express your opinion about a historical figure. I went on the Internet and searched information carefully. I practiced the speech every day. That day finally came after days of adequate preparation. With confidence filled in my mind, I went on the stage and showed my fluent presentation. I won first prize and learned a lesson that where there is a will, there is a way.
