第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分42.5分)
第一节 (共12小题;每题2.5分，满分30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
If I have a goal in life, it isn’t to be driving a Rolls-Royce. It’s to be giving away more than $1,000,000 a year and having an impact on people’s lives. I have the success today because I always had to work for what I wanted. I grew up accustomed to risks and disappointments, so I was used to moving forward, no matter what.
In 2008, I went to Los Angeles where I tried to get hired as an agent, an analyst and a financial broker. Unfortunately, all these doors slammed in my face. The world’s economy was in a bad state, so I knew I would have to do a little spinning of my own.
Youth involves a certain innocence but also perseverance. The word “can’t” wasn’t in my vocabulary. I partnered with a friend buying distressed multifamily properties around Houston. Even though we were enthusiastic and backed with start-up sums, I didn’t make a deal work. My friend moved on to other projects. Alone, I put all my money into the next real-estate project. I put the time in, I dreamed it, but once again the deal fell through. Two months later, though, the deal came back around. That was when the path opened, luck changed, and I was ready to form my own company. I haven’t looked back. Only ahead.
I’m now able to give back to communities and causes. I donate about $500,000 a year, much of that going to research to cure rare diseases. We also support a lot of services for disadvantaged children in Houston and other places.
I have always been someone who can see the big picture and have never been distracted by things that get in the way. There are lessons to be learned, and the biggest of those is to keep going. You may have to change the path, but always keep that vision in front of you.
1. Which of the following about the author is true
A. He donated a lot of money to improve his company’s image.
B. He often encountered difficulties in the process of growing up.
C. He started his own company together with a friend.
D. He changed jobs several times while in Los Angeles.
2. By saying “do a little spinning of my own” in the second paragraph, the author probably means he would_____________.
A. look for a part-time job independently B. make his contributions to the economy
C. give in to the disappointing reality D. be self-employed to develop his career
3. Which quality of the author is not shown in the passage
A. Perseverance. B. Optimism. C. Innocence. D. Kindness.
4. Which one is probably the best title of the passage
A. Saying No to “Turning Back” B. Tips for a Successful Business
C Jumping over Economic Downturns D. A Life-time Pursuit of Dream
【答案】1. B 2. D 3. C 4. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在成长过程中经常遇到困难，所以无论发生什么，都习惯了勇往直前。
【1题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“I grew up accustomed to risks and disappointments, so I was used to moving forward, no matter what.(我从小就习惯了冒险和失望，所以我习惯了勇往直前，无论发生什么)”可知，B选项“他在成长过程中经常遇到困难”正确。故选B。
【2题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“In 2008, I went to Los Angeles where I tried to get hired as an agent, an analyst and a financial broker. Unfortunately, all these doors slammed in my face.(2008年，我去了洛杉矶，试图在那里找到一份代理、分析师和金融经纪人的工作。不幸的是，这些门都在我面前关上了)”可知，当时世界经济状况很糟糕，所以作者要自主创业来发展自己的事业。由此推知，划线部分意思是“自主创业来发展自己的事业”。故选D。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Youth involves a certain innocence but also perseverance. The word “can’t” wasn’t in my vocabulary.(青春既有一定的天真，也有一定的毅力。我的字典里没有“不能”这个词)”以及倒数第二段中“I’m now able to give back to communities and causes. I donate about $500,000 a year, much of that going to research to cure rare diseases.(我现在能够回馈社区和事业。我每年捐赠大约50万美元，其中大部分用于治疗罕见疾病的研究)”可知，作者单纯的品质在文章中没有表现出来。故选C。
【4题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“There are lessons to be learned, and the biggest of those is to keep going. You may have to change the path, but always keep that vision in front of you.(我们要吸取教训，其中最大的教训就是坚持下去。你可能不得不改变道路，但始终保持愿景在你面前)”结合文章主要讲述了作者在成长过程中经常遇到困难，所以习惯了勇往直前，无论发生什么。由此可知，A选项“拒绝‘回头’”最符合文章标题。故选A。

I love my gas stove. There’s nothing quite like cooking over that beautiful blue flame. But in recent years environmentalists have been warning that gas stoves are bad for the climate and not so great for our health, either. Two new studies have heightened health worries about harmful gases in our kitchens. Is the evidence sufficient to change our cooking habits For me, the answer is yes.
Broadly speaking, there are two categories of concerning emissions related to gas stoves. First, there is the unburned natural gas, which is more than 90 percent methane. More than three quarters of methane that escapes from a stove leaks into kitchens when it is not in use, most likely through improper pipe fittings. Methane is not poisonous, but it is a powerful greenhouse gas. With 40 million gas stoves across our country, it is estimated that the heat-trapping potential of the methane they send out annually can roughly be compared to the carbon dioxide released by half a million gas-powered cars.
Second, there are the pollutants created by combustion when a burner is on, most notably nitrogen oxides, which can cause discomfort and pain in the lungs. In a matter of minutes, families who do not use their exhaust hoods and who have small, poorly ventilated kitchens can go over the Environmental Protection Agency’s outdoor exposure limit for nitrogen dioxide. Even short exposures to much nitrogen dioxide can worsen symptoms in people with respiratory conditions. And there is enough evidence that long-term exposure raises the risk of developing asthma.
What is the average home cook to make of all this They might take a cue from Michanowicz, who bought a plug-in countertop induction stove and does much of his cooking on that $100 item. Jackson, for his part, is putting his money where his research is: “I’m replacing a perfectly good gas stove” with an induction stove. Several U.S. cities are curtailing the use of natural gas in new construction.
As for me, I’m making some changes. I’ve switched to an electric kettle for boiling water, and despite its annoying noise, I now use the exhaust hood over my stove. And weather permitting, I’ll open a window.
5. What does the author want to show by mentioning two new studies
A. She might well get out of her cooking habits.
B. Health worries are proved by the two studies.
C. It’s not for her to judge despite sufficient evidence.
D. She will continue to cook with her beloved gas stove.
6. What do we know about methane
A. Methane can test the destructive power of greenhouse gas.
B. Most methane will leak into kitchens when a stove is not in use.
C. The leakage of methane into kitchens is possibly through imperfect pipe fittings.
D. The heat-trapping potential of methane is equal to the carbon dioxide released by cars.
7. What does the underlined word “curtailing” mean in paragraph 4
A. Guaranteeing. B. Limiting. C. Increasing. D. Embracing.
8. Which of the following is the most suitable structure of the text
A. B. C. D.
【答案】5. A 6. C 7. B 8. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了近年来，环保人士一直在警告说，煤气灶对气候有害，对我们的健康也不太好。两项新研究加剧了人们对厨房有害气体的健康担忧。对此作者决定放弃做饭。文章还说明了煤气灶的一些缺点。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Two new studies have heightened health worries about harmful gases in our kitchens. Is the evidence sufficient to change our cooking habits For me, the answer is yes.(两项新研究加剧了人们对厨房有害气体的健康担忧。这些证据足以改变我们的烹饪习惯吗？对我来说，答案是肯定的)”可推知，作者想通过提到两个新的研究来说明她很可能会改掉做饭的习惯。故选A。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“More than three quarters of methane that escapes from a stove leaks into kitchens when it is not in use, most likely through improper pipe fittings.(超过四分之三的甲烷在炉子不使用时泄漏到厨房，最有可能是通过不合适的管件)”可知，甲烷泄漏到厨房可能是由于管件不完善。故选C。
【7题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“Jackson, for his part, is putting his money where his research is: “I’m replacing a perfectly good gas stove” with an induction stove.”以及后文“the use of natural gas in new construction”可知，杰克逊正在用电磁炉取代一个非常好的煤气炉，通过杰克逊的例子可推知美国几个城市正在限制新建筑中天然气的使用。故画线词意思是“限制”。故选B。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Two new studies have heightened health worries about harmful gases in our kitchens. Is the evidence sufficient to change our cooking habits For me, the answer is yes.(两项新研究加剧了人们对厨房有害气体的健康担忧。这些证据足以改变我们的烹饪习惯吗？对我来说，答案是肯定的)”可知，第一段为总起全文，指出新研究让作者决定不再做饭；第二段“Broadly speaking, there are two categories of concerning emissions related to gas stoves. First, there is the unburned natural gas, which is more than 90 percent methane.(一般来说，与煤气灶有关的排放有两类。首先是未燃烧的天然气，其中90%以上是甲烷)”以及第三段“Second, there are the pollutants created by combustion when a burner is on, most notably nitrogen oxides, which can cause discomfort and pain in the lungs.(其次，当燃烧器打开时，燃烧会产生污染物，最明显的是氮氧化物，它会导致肺部不适和疼痛)”说明了两点煤气灶的缺点；第四段“What is the average home cook to make of all this (普通家庭厨师是如何看待这一切的呢？)”和第五段“As for me, I’m making some changes. (至于我，我要做一些改变)”是其它家庭厨师和作者对此的看法，故可推知，C选项最符合文章结构。故选C。
C
After 11 years，China has finally completed its Tiangong space station with the docking (对接) its Mengtian lab module, establishing the Tiangong as the second operational space station apart from the US-led, multinational International Space Station (ISS).
On November 1, the Mengtian lab module, the third and final part of its Tiangong space station docked with the core Tianhe module 13 hours after being launched. Next, the Tianhe and Mengtian modules will dock with the Wentian lab module, completing Tiangong’s T-shaped basic structure. The 17.88-meter-long, 23-ton Mengtian module is the heaviest operational single-cabin active spacecraft in orbit. Mengtian consists of a workcabin, a cargo airlock cabin, a payload cabin and resource cabin. In addition, it has eight scientific experiment cabinets and 37 extravehicul. installation options, enabling more in-cabin and out-cabin experiments in a microgravity environment Mengtian also carries the world’s first space atomic clock system, consisting of a hydrogen clock, rubidium clock and an optical clock. It is the world’s most accurate time and frequency system, but to support fundamental physics research.
One of the more ambitious aims of China’s space program is to position the country as a leading provider of space-based international public goods and services, such as planetary defense. Last month, Asia Times reported about China’s plans to conduct its first asteroid deflection test in 2025 or 2026. China has also taken pioneering steps in Marsexploration. A good example is the completion of China’s Tianwen-1 Mars mission, which has provided medium and high-resolution photos of the planet’s surface. China has also stated that it is willing to share scientific data from its Tianwen-l mission at an appropriate time and that scientists are welcome to apply for research over the data.
Moreover, China has also announced plans to send men to the moon, paving the potential way for its future settlement and economic use. And China and Russia plan to establish a permanent moon base by 2027. The proposed permanent moon base, the International Lunar Research Station(ILRS), is seen as an experimental complex designed for multiple scientific activities.
The Tiangong is open to all UN member states,with nine projects involving 17 countries including Kenya, Russia, Mexico, Japan, and Peru, alongside 23 entities selected among the first batch of scientific experiments to be carried on board the station. Reflecting China’s open-door space policy, the Tiangong is designed to be “inclusive” and adaptable for foreign astronauts.

【36题详解】
考查名词。句意：太极拳表演、中国传统民族音乐和流行歌曲也获得了热烈的欢呼和掌声。分析句子可知，空处用名词与cheers并列作宾语，applaud是动词，名词applause“掌声”，不可数名词，故填applause。
【37题详解】
考查冠词。句意：圣卢西亚市长约翰在开幕式上表示，Garden of Serenity是“马中友谊的象征”。symbol是可数名词，表泛指，前面要加不定冠词，symbol是辅音音素开头，因此不定冠词用a，故填a。

【42题详解】
考查不定式。句意：尽管没有去过中国，但他对书法感到兴奋，并对中国文化表示钦佩。be excited to do是固定短语，意为“兴奋地做某事”，因此空格处是不定式to experience，作状语。故填to experience。

第二节 读后续写 (满分25分)
59. 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。
It was a lazy Sunday morning, the type of day that getting out of bed requires an effort. When Marilyn and I entered the kitchen, Lori was already at the table doing her homework. Seeing us coming, she, suddenly, stood and faced me, “Why are there more pictures of Lisa than there are of me ” she asked. Lisa is our older daughter.
I stared back, not understanding the question. Lori turned and left the room. Caught off-guard by the question, I looked at Marilyn. “Are there more pictures of Lisa than of Lori ” Marilyn shrugged and raised her eyebrows in a motion of puzzlement. “Are you aware that there are more pictures of Lisa than Lori ” I added.
Marilyn said, “I’ve never counted them. I don’t know.”
Marilyn’s answer was the same as my thoughts, “I hadn’t realized that there was any significant difference. Now why would Lori ask such a question ” I asked.
Marilyn just shook her head and stared back at me. After a few minutes of thought she said, “When Lisa was born, you were taking photographs. You hardly went anywhere without a camera. When Lori was born, you were involved in colored slides (幻灯片). There must be hundreds of slides of Lori somewhere in the house that Lori has never seen or doesn’t remember.”
After digesting Marilyn’s remarks, I agreed. “After Lori leaves, we’ll look for those slides. Who knows, we may find more slides of Lori than pictures of Lisa,” I joked.
Later that afternoon, when we were alone, we went into the basement where we had stored the boxes that we had brought from our previous home. It wasn’t long before we discovered the trays of slides, and for the rest of the afternoon we looked at each tray, pointing out those slides that highlighted Lori.
“What are you going to do ” Marilyn asked.
“It’s her birthday in a few weeks,” I said, “We’ll select about one hundred slides with Lori and convert them into pictures, put them into an album and give to her as a gift. I don’t know if the album will answer her question, but at least she’ll know that we care enough to find her an answer.”
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右：
2. 开头已给出。
Paragraph 1:
Over the next few days, we secretly went through all of our slides.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
On November 24, before leaving for work, I opened her door and slipped the album inside.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version
Over the next few days, we secretly went through all of our slides. We kept on selecting and rejecting pictures until we were satisfied. Those pictures brought back memories of the early years of our marriage and we hoped they showed how we felt about our daughter. Marilyn had them converted into photographs. Then, we placed them into an album with a birthday card explaining why her mother and I had put the album together. When the album was finally finished, we hid the book until her birthday.
On November 24, before leaving for work, I opened her door and slipped the album inside. Then I left the house and drove to work. I was about to enter the office when the telephone rang. I picked up the receiver, and on the other end of the receiver, a tiny voice spoke, ''I love you, Daddy, '' she said and disconnected. The receiver remained against my ear for a few more minutes before I placed it on the telephone. Our message had been delivered and acknowledged.
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇读后续写。文章主要讲述，一天作者的女儿Lori问他为什么Lisa的照片比自己多。作者一开始不明白是怎么回事，后来在Marilyn的提示下才明白，原来Lisa小时候拍了很多照片放在家里，而Lori的是幻灯片，也有很多。作者下午去储藏室找有Lori的幻灯片，准备把它们转化成照片，在生日时给她惊喜。
【详解】续写分为两个部分
第一部分的开头是：接下来的几天，我们秘密地看完了所有的幻灯片。所以可以接着写：他们选取一些照片作为生日礼物，在选照片的过程中想起了一些美好的回忆。他们把选好的照片装进相册，准备给Lori惊喜。
第二部分的开头是：11月24日，在前往工作前，我打开Lori的门，悄悄把相册放了进去。所以可以接着写：在作者到达工作地后，接到了Lori打来的电话。她对作者说了一些暖心的话，让他感动的话。作者也很高兴自己的心意被女儿接受了。
续写内容要符合逻辑，注意时态、人称、主谓一致。
【点睛】范文内容完整，要点全面，语言规范，语篇连贯，词数适当，上下文意思连贯，符合逻辑关系。作者在范文中使用了一些主从复合句，例如：Then, we placed them into an album with a birthday card explaining why her mother and I had put the album together.中why引导宾语从句；I was about to enter the office when the telephone rang.中使用了固定句型was about to do…when…“正要做某事（突然）”

第二部分 阅读(共两节，满分42.5分)
第一节 (共12小题;每题2.5分，满分30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
If I have a goal in life, it isn’t to be driving a Rolls-Royce. It’s to be giving away more than $1,000,000 a year and having an impact on people’s lives. I have the success today because I always had to work for what I wanted. I grew up accustomed to risks and disappointments, so I was used to moving forward, no matter what.
In 2008, I went to Los Angeles where I tried to get hired as an agent, an analyst and a financial broker. Unfortunately, all these doors slammed in my face. The world’s economy was in a bad state, so I knew I would have to do a little spinning of my own.
Youth involves a certain innocence but also perseverance. The word “can’t” wasn’t in my vocabulary. I partnered with a friend buying distressed multifamily properties around Houston. Even though we were enthusiastic and backed with start-up sums, I didn’t make a deal work. My friend moved on to other projects. Alone, I put all my money into the next real-estate project. I put the time in, I dreamed it, but once again the deal fell through. Two months later, though, the deal came back around. That was when the path opened, luck changed, and I was ready to form my own company. I haven’t looked back. Only ahead.
I’m now able to give back to communities and causes. I donate about $500,000 a year, much of that going to research to cure rare diseases. We also support a lot of services for disadvantaged children in Houston and other places.
I have always been someone who can see the big picture and have never been distracted by things that get in the way. There are lessons to be learned and the biggest of those is to keep going. You may have to change the path, but always keep that vision in front of you.

I love my gas stove. There’s nothing quite like cooking over that beautiful blue flame. But in recent years environmentalists have been warning that gas stoves are bad for the climate and not so great for our health, either. Two new studies have heightened health worries about harmful gases in our kitchens. Is the evidence sufficient to change our cooking habits For me, the answer is yes.
Broadly speaking there are two categories of concerning emissions related to gas stoves. First, there is the unburned natural gas, which is more than 90 percent methane. More than three quarters of methane that escapes from a stove leaks into kitchens when it is not in use, most likely through improper pipe fittings. Methane is not poisonous, but it is a powerful greenhouse gas. With 40 million gas stoves across our country, it is estimated that the heat-trapping potential of the methane they send out annually can roughly be compared to the carbon dioxide released by half a million gas-powered cars.
Second there are the pollutants created by combustion when a burner is on, most notably nitrogen oxides, which can cause discomfort and pain in the lungs. In a matter of minutes, families who do not use their exhaust hoods and who have small, poorly ventilated kitchens can go over the Environmental Protection Agency’s outdoor exposure limit for nitrogen dioxide. Even short exposures to much nitrogen dioxide can worsen symptoms in people with respiratory conditions. And there is enough evidence that long-term exposure raises the risk of developing asthma.
What is the average home cook to make of all this They might take a cue from Michanowicz, who bought a plug-in countertop induction stove and does much of his cooking on that $100 item. Jackson, for his part, is putting his money where his research is: “I’m replacing a perfectly good gas stove” with an induction stove. Several U.S. cities are curtailing the use of natural gas in new construction.
As for me, I’m making some changes. I’ve switched to an electric kettle for boiling water, and despite its annoying noise, I now use the exhaust hood over my stove. And weather permitting, I’ll open a window.
5. What does the author want to show by mentioning two new studies
A. She might well get out of her cooking habits.
B. Health worries are proved by the two studies.
C It’s not for her to judge despite sufficient evidence.
D. She will continue to cook with her beloved gas stove.
6. What do we know about methane
A. Methane can test the destructive power of greenhouse gas.
B. Most methane will leak into kitchens when a stove is not in use.
C. The leakage of methane into kitchens is possibly through imperfect pipe fittings.
D. The heat-trapping potential of methane is equal to the carbon dioxide released by cars.
7. What does the underlined word “curtailing” mean in paragraph 4
A. Guaranteeing. B. Limiting. C. Increasing. D. Embracing.
8. Which of the following is the most suitable structure of the text
A. B. C. D.
C
After 11 years，China has finally completed its Tiangong space station with the docking (对接) its Mengtian lab module, establishing the Tiangong as the second operational space station apart from the US-led, multinational International Space Station (ISS).
On November 1, the Mengtian lab module, the third and final part of its Tiangong space station docked with the core Tianhe module 13 hours after being launched. Next, the Tianhe and Mengtian modules will dock with the Wentian lab module, completing Tiangong’s T-shaped basic structure. The 17.88-meter-long, 23-ton Mengtian module is the heaviest operational single-cabin active spacecraft in orbit. Mengtian consists of a workcabin, a cargo airlock cabin, a payload cabin and resource cabin. In addition, it has eight scientific experiment cabinets and 37 extravehicul. installation options, enabling more in-cabin and out-cabin experiments in a microgravity environment Mengtian also carries the world’s first space atomic clock system, consisting of a hydrogen clock, rubidium clock and an optical clock. It is the world’s most accurate time and frequency system, but to support fundamental physics research.
One of the more ambitious aims of China’s space program is to position the country as a leading provider of space-based international public goods and services, such as planetary defense. Last month, Asia Times reported about China’s plans to conduct its first asteroid deflection test in 2025 or 2026. China has also taken pioneering steps in Marsexploration. A good example is the completion of China’s Tianwen-1 Mars mission, which has provided medium and high-resolution photos of the planet’s surface. China has also stated that it is willing to share scientific data from its Tianwen-l mission at an appropriate time and that scientists are welcome to apply for research over the data.
Moreover, China has also announced plans to send men to the moon, paving the potential way for its future settlement and economic use. And China and Russia plan to establish a permanent moon base by 2027. The proposed permanent moon base, the International Lunar Research Station(ILRS), is seen as an experimental complex designed for multiple scientific activities.
The Tiangong is open to all UN member states,with nine projects involving 17 countries including Kenya, Russia, Mexico, Japan, and Peru, alongside 23 entities selected among the first batch of scientific experiments to be carried on board the station. Reflecting China’s open-door space policy, the Tiangong is designed to be “inclusive” and adaptable for foreign astronauts.
9. What can we infer about the Mengtian module according to the text
A. It has docked with the Wentian lab module.
B. It is an significant part of Tiangong space station.
C. It is made up of four scientific experiment cabins.
D. It is heavier than all the other single-cabin spaceships.
10. Why did the author mention “China’s plan” in paragraph 4
A. To make a prediction. B. To present a fact.
C. To clarify a concept. D. To explain a rule.
11. How will China explore the moon
A. By sending men to the settlement of the moon.
B. By providing clear photos of the planet’s surface.
C. By sharing scientific data from its Tianwen-1 mission.
D. By setting up a moon base for multiple scientific activities.
12. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. International Space Station Suffers Wear and Tear
B. Side by Side, China Works with UN Member States
C. Step by Step, China Finds Its Footing in Outer Space
D. Tiangong Space Station Is Established Little by Little

59. 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。
It was a lazy Sunday morning, the type of day that getting out of bed requires an effort. When Marilyn and I entered the kitchen, Lori was already at the table doing her homework. Seeing us coming, she, suddenly, stood and faced me, “Why are there more pictures of Lisa than there are of me ” she asked. Lisa is our older daughter.
I stared back, not understanding the question. Lori turned and left the room. Caught off-guard by the question, I looked at Marilyn. “Are there more pictures of Lisa than of Lori ” Marilyn shrugged and raised her eyebrows in a motion of puzzlement. “Are you aware that there are more pictures of Lisa than Lori ” I added.
Marilyn said, “I’ve never counted them. I don’t know.”
Marilyn’s answer was the same as my thoughts, “I hadn’t realized that there was any significant difference. Now why would Lori ask such a question ” I asked.
Marilyn just shook her head and stared back at me. After a few minutes of thought she said, “When Lisa was born, you were taking photographs. You hardly went anywhere without a camera. When Lori was born, you were involved in colored slides (幻灯片). There must be hundreds of slides of Lori somewhere in the house that Lori has never seen or doesn’t remember.”
After digesting Marilyn’s remarks, I agreed. “After Lori leaves, we’ll look for those slides. Who knows, we may find more slides of Lori than pictures of Lisa,” I joked.
Later that afternoon, when we were alone, we went into the basement where we had stored the boxes that we had brought from our previous home. It wasn’t long before we discovered the trays of slides, and for the rest of the afternoon we looked at each tray, pointing out those slides that highlighted Lori.
“What are you going to do ” Marilyn asked.
“It’s her birthday in a few weeks,” I said, “We’ll select about one hundred slides with Lori and convert them into pictures, put them into an album and give to her as a gift. I don’t know if the album will answer her question, but at least she’ll know that we care enough to find her an answer.”
注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右：
2. 开头已给出。
Paragraph 1:
Over the next few days, we secretly went through all of our slides.
