Chloe Ricketts is only 15 years old, but she’s already signed a professional contract with the Washington Spirit soccer team. That makes her the youngest player ever to sign with the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL).
Chloe began working out with the Washington Spirit team in January. She trained with the team in Florida and Virginia. During training, Chloe impressed the team’s managers with her ability to compete with the other professional players, which led the team to offer her the contract.
For her part, Chloe says the chance to play for the Washington Spirit is “a dream come true”. Chloe is from Dexter, Michigan. She started playing soccer when she was seven. She claims that at the time, she was “the worst on the team”. However, she improved through hard work, extra training, and staying late after practice. It didn’t take her long to begin moving up in the soccer world.
In 2021, she played on a girls team, which went to the national finals of the Elite Clubs National League. She also played on a boys team, the 2007 Boys Ann Arbor Tigers, which won the Michigan State Cup that year. In January of 2022, Chloe signed with AFC Ann Arbor — a team that’s part of USL League Two. USL League Two helps develop players for the NWSL. When she joined AFC Ann Arbor, Chloe was just 14 — the youngest player ever to join the club.
Now, as she joins Washington Spirit, Chloe is in the 10th grade. While she is playing with the team, Chloe will continue to go to school online. But Chloe isn’t the first 15-year-old to play for the NWSL. The NWSL used to have a rule saying that no one under the age of 18 could join its teams. But in 2021, another 15-year-old, Olivia Moultrie, took the league to court.
4. What made the Washington Spirit soccer team sign a contract with Chloe
A. Her skills. B. Her experience. C. Her character. D. Her reputation.
5. Which of the following words can best describe Chloe
A. Careful. B. Easy-going. C. Far-sighted. D. Hard-working
6. On which team did Chloe win the Michigan State Cup
A. AFC Ann Arbor. B. USL League Two.
C. The 2007 Boys Ann Arbor Tigers. D. The Elite Clubs National League.
7. What can we infer from the last paragraph

B. Olivia Moultrie took the lead in Washington Spirit.
C. Chloe values her education during playing football.
D. Chloe’s participation makes her team much stronger.

【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“However, she improved through hard work, extra training, and staying late after practice.(然而，她通过刻苦训练、额外训练和练习后熬夜，进步了很多)”可推知，Chloe非常勤奋。故选D。
【6题详解】

【7题详解】

After COVID-19, the Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that while the number of nurses has increased in the past three years, the U.S. still experiences a shortage of registered nurses, and that there will be over one million unfilled nursing jobs. So what’s the solution Robots.
Japan is ahead of the curve when it comes to this trend. Toyohashi University of Technology has developed Terapio a robotic medical cart that can make hospital rounds, deliver medications and other items, and retrieve records. This type of robot will likely be one of the first to be implemented in hospital.
Robots capable of social engagement help with loneliness as well as cognitive functioning, but the robot itself doesn’t have to engage directly — it can serve as a mediator for human communication. Telepresence robots such as MantaroBot, Vgo, and Giraff can be controlled through a computer, smartphone, or tablet, allowing family members or doctors to remotely monitor patients or Skype them. If you can’t get to the nursing home to visit grandma, you can use a telepresence robot to hang out with her.
A robot’s appearance affects its ability to successfully interact with humans, which is why the Human-Interactive Robot Research decided to develop a robotic nurse that looks like a huge teddy bear. RIBA, also known as “Robear,” can help patients into and out of wheelchairs and beds with its strong arms.
On the less cute and more scary side there is Actroid F, which has such resilient skin and natural hair color that some patients may not know the difference. This conversational robot companion has cameras in its eyes, which allow it to track patients and use appropriate facial expressions and body language in its interactions.
It’s important to note that robotic nurses don’t decide courses of treatment or make diagnoses. Instead, they perform routine and laborious tasks, freeing nurses up to attend to patients with immediate needs. This is one industry where it seems the integration of robots will lead to cooperation, not replacement.
8. What does the underlined part in paragraph 2 mean
A. Take the lead. B. Reach the standard.
C. Set a record. D. Miss a turn.
9. Telepresence robots may serve their right purposes in hospital when ______.
A. they collect medical records for patients
B. they deliver food to clinical doctors
C. they move the mobility-disabled patients
D. they assist doctors with long-distance diagnoses
10. What is the distinctive attraction of Actroid F
A. Its scary arm strength. B. Its adorable appearance.
C. Its human-like voice. D. Its proper interactive response.
11. What is the suitable title for the passage
A. Robots — the future replacement of nurses
B. Robots — the earth-shaking reform in hospitals
C. Robots — a good supplement to nurses
D. Robots — a new way to treat patients
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了在未来，由于护士短缺，机器人将成为医疗领域的趋势，日本已经开发出了多款功能各异的医疗机器人，机器人将主要用于完成一些日常的重复性工作，从而减轻护士的负担，向患者提供更好的服务。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“After COVID-19, the Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that while the number of nurses has increased in the past three years, the U.S. still experiences a shortage of registered nurses, and that there will be over one million unfilled nursing jobs. So what’s the solution Robots.(在2019冠状病毒病之后，美国劳工统计局预测，虽然护士人数在过去三年中有所增加，但美国仍然面临注册护士短缺的问题，将有超过100万个护士职位空缺。那么解决方案是什么呢？)”及划线词组下文“Toyohashi University of Technology has developed Terapio, a robotic medical cart that can deliver medicines and other items.(日本丰桥工业大学开发了一款机器人医疗车Terapio，可以运送药品和其他物品)”可知，在使用机器人补充护士短缺问题上，日本走在了前面。由此可知，划线词组ahead of the curve与A选项“Taking the lead(领先)”同义。故选A。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Telepresence robots such as MantaroBot, Vgo, and Giraff can be controlled through a computer, smartphone, or tablet, allowing family members or doctors to remotely monitor patients or Skype (网络电话) them. (像MantaroBot ，Vgo和Giraff这样的远程呈现机器人可以通过电脑、智能手机或平板电脑进行控制，允许家庭成员或医生远程检查患者)”可推知，远程呈现机器人在医院协助医生进行远程诊断时，可能会达到正确的目的。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段中的“This conversational robot companion has cameras in its eyes, which allow it to track patients and use appropriate facial expressions and body language in its interactions. (这个会说话的机器人伴侣的眼睛里有摄像头，可以跟踪病人，并在互动中使用适当的面部表情和肢体语言)”可推知，Android F的特别吸引人之处在于其适当的互动反应。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“After COVID-19, the Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that while the number of nurses has increased in the past three years, the U.S. still experiences a shortage of registered nurses, and that there will be over one million unfilled nursing jobs. So what’s the solution Robots.(在2019冠状病毒病之后，美国劳工统计局预测，虽然护士人数在过去三年中有所增加，但美国仍然面临注册护士短缺的问题，将有超过100万个护士职位空缺。那么解决方案是什么呢？)”以及通读全文可知，文章主要讲述的是文章介绍了在未来，由于护士短缺，机器人将成为医疗领域的趋势，日本已经开发出了多款功能各异的医疗机器人，包括可以进行巡逻的Terapio、可以帮助病人的Robear和外表逼真的会交流的机器人Actroid F等。机器人将主要用于完成一些日常的重复性工作，从而减轻护士的负担，向患者提供更好的服务。由此可知，C选项“Robots — a good supplement to nurses(机器人——护士的良好补充)”概括文章主要内容，符合文章标题。故选C。
D
While teenagers who are at risk of depression with risky behaviors — drinking alcohol, smoking cigarettes and cutting classes often alert parents and teachers that serious problems are brewing, a new study finds that there’s another group of adolescents who are in nearly as much danger of experiencing the same mental symptoms.
These teens use tons of media, get insufficient sleep and have a sedentary (不爱活动的) lifestyle. Of course, that may sound like a description of every teenager on the planet. But the study wars that it is teenagers who engage in all three of these practices in the extreme that are truly in a dangerous position. Because their behaviors are not usually seen as a red flag, these young people have been called the “invisible risk” group by the study’s authors.
The study’s authors surveyed 15,395 students and analyzed nine risk behaviors, including excessive alcohol use, illegal drug use, heavy smoking and high media use. Their aim was to determine the relationship between these risk behaviors and mental health issues in teenagers. The group that scored high on all nine of the risk behaviors was most likely to show symptoms of depression; in all, nearly 15% of this group reported being depressed, compared with just 4% of the low-risk group. But the invisible group wasn’t far behind the high-risk set, with more than 13% of them exhibiting depression.
The findings caught Carli off guard. “We didn’t expect that,” he says. “The high-risk group and low-risk group are obvious, but this third group was not only unexpected. It was so distinct and so larger — nearly one third of our sample — that it became a key finding of the study.”
Carli says that one of the most significant things about his study is that it provides new early warning signs for parents, teachers and mental health-care providers. And early identifications, support and treatment for mental health issues, he says, are the best ways to keep them from turning into full-blown disorders.
12. Which teenager probably belongs to the “invisible group”
A. A teenager who drinks frequently. B. A teenager who exercises regularly.
C. A teenager who skips school. D. A teenager who suffers from a lack of sleep.
13. What can we know about the new study
A. It was conducted by analyzing and comparing the previous data.
B. It was intended to dig into the reasons for depression.
C. It revealed an alarming rate of the invisible group suffering depression.
D. Its findings were under expectation of the research team.
14. What is Carli’s attitude toward the findings
A. Unclear. B. Positive. C. Doubtful. D. Indifferent.
15. The author wrote this passage to ______.
A. introduce a new therapy for teens’ mental disorder
B. war about the unobserved signals for teens’ mental problems
C. share a novel psychological experiment with teens
D. caution teens against developing unhealthy habits
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一项研究发现，该研究表明生活作息不规律的青少年有患抑郁症的风险。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“These teens use tons of media, get insufficient sleep and have a sedentary (不爱活动的) lifestyle. Of course, that may sound like a description of every teenager on the planet. But the study wars that it is teenagers who engage in all three of these practices in the extreme that are truly in a dangerous position. Because their behaviors are not usually seen as a red flag, these young people have been called the “invisible risk” group by the study’s authors.( 这些青少年使用大量的媒体，睡眠不足，生活方式久坐不动。当然，这可能听起来像是对地球上每一个青少年的描述。但研究表明，那些极端地从事这三种行为的青少年才是真正处于危险境地的人。因为他们的行为通常不会被视为危险信号，这些年轻人被该研究的作者称为“隐形风险”群体)”可知，睡眠不足的青少年可能属于“隐形群体”。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“The group that scored high on all nine of the risk behaviors was most likely to show symptoms of depression; in all, nearly 15% of this group reported being depressed, compared with just 4% of the low-risk group. But the invisible group wasn’t far behind the high-risk set, with more than 13% of them exhibiting depression.(在所有九种危险行为中得分较高的那一组最有可能出现抑郁症状;总的来说，这一组中有近15%的人患有抑郁症，而低风险组中只有4%的人患有抑郁症。但隐形人群的情况并不比高危人群差多少，其中超过13%的人表现出抑郁)”可推知，这项新研究揭示了隐形风险组患抑郁症的比率惊人。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Carli says that one of the most significant things about his study is that it provides new early warning signs for parents, teachers and mental health-care providers. And early identifications, support and treatment for mental health issues, he says, are the best ways to keep them from turning into full-blown disorders.(Carli说，他的研究最重要的一点是，它为父母、老师和精神卫生保健提供者提供了新的早期预警信号。他说，对心理健康问题的早期识别、支持和治疗是防止它们演变成全面失调的最好方法)”可知，Carli表示这项研究最重要的发现之一是它为父母、老师和精神健康服务提供者提供了新的早期预警信号，及早发现、支持和治疗精神健康问题，可以预防它们演变为更严重的问题。由此推知，Carli对这项研究的发现持积极态度。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“While teenagers who are at risk of depression with risky behaviors — drinking alcohol, smoking cigarettes and cutting classes often alert parents and teachers that serious problems are brewing, a new study finds that there’s another group of adolescents who are in nearly as much danger of experiencing the same mental symptoms.(虽然酗酒、吸烟和逃课等危险行为会使青少年有患抑郁症的风险，但一项新的研究发现，还有另一群青少年也有同样的心理症状)”结合文章主要介绍了一项新研究，发现了一些青少年患抑郁症的隐形风险因素，并强调了早期发现和治疗精神健康问题的重要性，以预防它们演变为更严重的问题。由此推知，作者的目的是警告人们注意青少年精神问题的未被注意到的信号。故选B。

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。
Missy was absolutely my best friend in the whole world. We had known each other since first grade, and we literally did everything together. We frequently visited each other’s homes, we knew each other’s families like they were our own. The interesting thing about our relationship, however the fact was that the older we got, the more our values seemed to differ. We still enjoyed a lot of the same things, but I was a bit more settled while she loved being associated with popular people and things. Although she was basically a good person, she had no problem with forcing things to go her way.
Perhaps this is why it seemed that her family actually trusted me more than they trusted her. So, on the day when Missy showed up at my house with a huge dent (凹痕) in her father’s car, I knew that we were in for a troublesome time.
She had banged the car into a tree while out that day, and she knew her father was going to have an explanation. So she stopped by my house in order to make up a story that would lessen her father’s rage. Missy decided to tell him that while in a parking lot, someone must have backed into the car and dented it. Looking at the dent with some crashed leaves and bark still sticking there, I attempted to perish (打消) her thought. “I don’t think your father will buy it.” “ Don’t worry,” she insisted,“even if my dad doesn’t trust me, he’ll trust you.” My role was to confirm for her. Now keep in mind that I had strong objections to lying and I wanted absolutely nothing to do with the situation. I loved her parents just like my own, and I did not want to be a party to this lie that Missy was creating. Nevertheless, after much request and a general questioning of my loyalty to our friendship, I decided that the least I could do was to act as a silent witness. That way, I wasn’t actually lying; I just wasn’t telling the full truth.
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。
Paragraph 1: An hour or so later, we presented Missy’s father with the car and the inquiry began.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: Her father looked at me with great disbelief.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】An hour or so later, we presented Missy’s father with the car and the inquiry began. Under a barrage of inquiries, Missy recapped her concocted story unhurriedly, while I stood there in silent agreement. After Missy finishing her seemingly perfect statement, her father raised his eyebrows and turned to me, waiting for my proof. However, once again, I chose silence under his scrutinizing eyes with my heart pounding violently. Suddenly, he walked over to the dented area for a closer inspection. It was at that point that pieces of bark from the tree that Missy had hit fell out.
Her father looked at me with great disbelief. An enormous sense of guilt rose up in me as his cold eyes seemed to proclaim me as the “guilty” bystander. I was so flustered that I wanted to explain but was interrupted by his harsh words, “You guys really failed me! Especially...” Instead of continuing his reproach, he took a deep breath and turned his back on me. It dawned on me that the precious but fragile trust had been smashed by my silence. In fact, the process of how we apologized to make amends was just a blur, but the bitter lesson of being a silent accomplice was branded on my memory.
【解析】
【导语】本文以友谊与道德冲突为线索展开，讲述了Missy和叙述者是青梅竹马的好朋友，随着年龄的增长，价值观变得不同，叙述者更沉稳，她更喜欢按照自己的方式做事，因此她的家人似乎更信任叙述者而不是她。Missy因损坏了她父亲的汽车而陷入困境，她要求叙述者撒谎并帮她掩护，尽管叙述者强烈反对和父母撒谎，但最终答应做一个沉默的掩护者，这凸显了她们友谊不断发展的动态和道德困境。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“大约一个小时后，我们把车交给了Missy的父亲，询问开始了。”可知，第一段可描写Missy用她编造的故事向她父亲解释，她父亲询问我，我却一直保持沉默。
②由第二段首句内容“她父亲难以置信地看着我。”可知，第二段可描写我内心的挣扎，既不想出卖Missy，又不想向她父亲说谎，我陷入了友谊和道德的困境。
2.续写线索：Missy和我是最好的朋友——价值观变得不太相同——Missy因损坏父亲汽车求我掩护——我做个沉默的掩护者——她父亲责备我沉默——我陷入做帮凶的痛苦

Chloe Ricketts is only 15 years old, but she’s already signed a professional contract with the Washington Spirit soccer team. That makes her the youngest player ever to sign with the National Women’s Soccer League (NWSL).
Chloe began working out with the Washington Spirit team in January. She trained with the team in Florida and Virginia. During training, Chloe impressed the team’s managers with her ability to compete with the other professional players, which led the team to offer her the contract.
For her part, Chloe says the chance to play for the Washington Spirit is “a dream come true”. Chloe is from Dexter, Michigan. She started playing soccer when she was seven. She claims that at the time, she was “the worst on the team”. However, she improved through hard work, extra training, and staying late after practice. It didn’t take her long to begin moving up in the soccer world.
In 2021, she played on a girls team, which went to the national finals of the Elite Clubs National League. She also played on a boys team, the 2007 Boys Ann Arbor Tigers, which won the Michigan State Cup that year. In January of 2022, Chloe signed with AFC Ann Arbor — a team that’s part of USL League Two. USL League Two helps develop players for the NWSL. When she joined AFC Ann Arbor, Chloe was just 14 — the youngest player ever to join the club.
Now, as she joins Washington Spirit, Chloe is in the 10th grade. While she is playing with the team, Chloe will continue to go to school online. But Chloe isn’t the first 15-year-old to play for the NWSL. The NWSL used to have a rule saying that no one under the age of 18 could join its teams. But in 2021, another 15-year-old, Olivia Moultrie, took the league to court.
4. What made the Washington Spirit soccer team sign a contract with Chloe
A. Her skills. B. Her experience. C. Her character. D. Her reputation.
5. Which of the following words can best describe Chloe
A. Careful. B. Easy-going. C. Far-sighted. D. Hard-working
6. On which team did Chloe win the Michigan State Cup
A. AFC Ann Arbor. B. USL League Two.
C. The 2007 Boys Ann Arbor Tigers. D. The Elite Clubs National League.
7. What can we infer from the last paragraph
A. Washington Spirit revised a rule to take in Chloe.
B. Olivia Moultrie took the lead in Washington Spirit.
C. Chloe values her education during playing football.
D. Chloe’s participation makes her team much stronger.

After COVID-19, the Bureau of Labor Statistics predicts that while the number of nurses has increased in the past three years, the U.S. still experiences a shortage of registered nurses, and that there will be over one million unfilled nursing jobs. So what’s the solution Robots.
Japan is ahead of the curve when it comes to this trend. Toyohashi University of Technology has developed Terapio, a robotic medical cart that can make hospital rounds, deliver medications and other items, and retrieve records. This type of robot will likely be one of the first to be implemented in hospital.
Robots capable of social engagement help with loneliness as well as cognitive functioning, but the robot itself doesn’t have to engage directly — it can serve as a mediator for human communication. Telepresence robots such as MantaroBot, Vgo, and Giraff can be controlled through a computer, smartphone, or tablet, allowing family members or doctors to remotely monitor patients or Skype them. If you can’t get to the nursing home to visit grandma, you can use a telepresence robot to hang out with her.
A robot’s appearance affects its ability to successfully interact with humans, which is why the Human-Interactive Robot Research decided to develop a robotic nurse that looks like a huge teddy bear. RIBA, also known as “Robear,” can help patients into and out of wheelchairs and beds with its strong arms.
On the less cute and more scary side there is Actroid F, which has such resilient skin and natural hair color that some patients may not know the difference. This conversational robot companion has cameras in its eyes, which allow it to track patients and use appropriate facial expressions and body language in its interactions.
It’s important to note that robotic nurses don’t decide courses of treatment or make diagnoses. Instead, they perform routine and laborious tasks, freeing nurses up to attend to patients with immediate needs. This is one industry where it seems the integration of robots will lead to cooperation, not replacement.
8. What does the underlined part in paragraph 2 mean
A. Take the lead. B. Reach the standard.
C. Set a record. D. Miss a turn.
9. Telepresence robots may serve their right purposes in hospital when ______.
A. they collect medical records for patients
B. they deliver food to clinical doctors
C. they move the mobility-disabled patients
D. they assist doctors with long-distance diagnoses
10. What is the distinctive attraction of Actroid F
A. Its scary arm strength. B. Its adorable appearance.
C. Its human-like voice. D. Its proper interactive response.
11. What is the suitable title for the passage

While teenagers who are at risk of depression with risky behaviors — drinking alcohol, smoking cigarettes and cutting classes often alert parents and teachers that serious problems are brewing, a new study finds that there’s another group of adolescents who are in nearly as much danger of experiencing the same mental symptoms.
These teens use tons of media, get insufficient sleep and have a sedentary (不爱活动的) lifestyle. Of course, that may sound like a description of every teenager on the planet. But the study wars that it is teenagers who engage in all three of these practices in the extreme that are truly in a dangerous position. Because their behaviors are not usually seen as a red flag, these young people have been called the “invisible risk” group by the study’s authors.
The study’s authors surveyed 15,395 students and analyzed nine risk behaviors, including excessive alcohol use, illegal drug use, heavy smoking and high media use. Their aim was to determine the relationship between these risk behaviors and mental health issues in teenagers. The group that scored high on all nine of the risk behaviors was most likely to show symptoms of depression; in all, nearly 15% of this group reported being depressed, compared with just 4% of the low-risk group. But the invisible group wasn’t far behind the high-risk set, with more than 13% of them exhibiting depression.
The findings caught Carli off guard. “We didn’t expect that,” he says. “The high-risk group and low-risk group are obvious, but this third group was not only unexpected. It was so distinct and so larger — nearly one third of our sample — that it became a key finding of the study.”
Carli says that one of the most significant things about his study is that it provides new early warning signs for parents, teachers and mental health-care providers. And early identifications, support and treatment for mental health issues, he says, are the best ways to keep them from turning into full-blown disorders.
12. Which teenager probably belongs to the “invisible group”
A. A teenager who drinks frequently. B. A teenager who exercises regularly.
C. A teenager who skips school. D. A teenager who suffers from a lack of sleep.
13. What can we know about the new study
A. It was conducted by analyzing and comparing the previous data.
B. It was intended to dig into the reasons for depression.
C. It revealed an alarming rate of the invisible group suffering depression.
D. Its findings were under expectation of the research team.
14. What is Carli’s attitude toward the findings
A. Unclear. B. Positive. C. Doubtful. D. Indifferent.
15. The author wrote this passage to ______.
A. introduce a new therapy for teens’ mental disorder
B. war about the unobserved signals for teens’ mental problems
C. share a novel psychological experiment with teens
D. caution teens against developing unhealthy habits

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。
Missy was absolutely my best friend in the whole world. We had known each other since first grade, and we literally did everything together. We frequently visited each other’s homes, we knew each other’s families like they were our own. The interesting thing about our relationship, however the fact was that the older we got, the more our values seemed to differ. We still enjoyed a lot of the same things, but I was a bit more settled while she loved being associated with popular people and things. Although she was basically a good person, she had no problem with forcing things to go her way.
Perhaps this is why it seemed that her family actually trusted me more than they trusted her. So, on the day when Missy showed up at my house with a huge dent (凹痕) in her father’s car, I knew that we were in for a troublesome time.
She had banged the car into a tree while out that day, and she knew her father was going to have an explanation. So she stopped by my house in order to make up a story that would lessen her father’s rage. Missy decided to tell him that while in a parking lot, someone must have backed into the car and dented it. Looking at the dent with some crashed leaves and bark still sticking there, I attempted to perish (打消) her thought. “I don’t think your father will buy it.” “ Don’t worry,” she insisted,“even if my dad doesn’t trust me, he’ll trust you.” My role was to confirm for her. Now keep in mind that I had strong objections to lying and I wanted absolutely nothing to do with the situation. I loved her parents just like my own, and I did not want to be a party to this lie that Missy was creating. Nevertheless, after much request and a general questioning of my loyalty to our friendship, I decided that the least I could do was to act as a silent witness. That way, I wasn’t actually lying; I just wasn’t telling the full truth.
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。
Paragraph 1: An hour or so later, we presented Missy’s father with the car and the inquiry began.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2: Her father looked at me with great disbelief.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
