第一节 应用文写作(满分15分)
Dear Tom,
Thank you for your interest in our school’s “Adversity & Courage” campaign. Here are the details.
The activity aimed to inspire students to face challenges bravely. We invited a firefighter to share his rescue experiences during natural disasters, and held a storytelling contest where classmates exchanged real-life stories of overcoming difficulties. A workshop also taught stress-management skills through role-play.
Personally, I learned that courage isn’t the absence of fear, but perseverance through hardships. As Helen Keller said, “Although the world is full of suffering, it is also full of overcoming it.” This event truly reshaped my understanding of adversity.
Warm regards,
Li Hua
第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
Paragraph 1:
That night, Tom couldn’t fall asleep. He kept thinking about the man’s words and the current situation of the river. Suddenly, an idea struck him. He decided to create an online platform to raise more awareness about the river’s pollution problem. The next day, he shared his idea with Sarah and their friends. Everyone was excited about it and started to contribute. They collected more data about the river’ pollution, including the types of pollutants and their sources. They also uploaded all the pictures and videos Sarah had taken during the activity. Soon, their online platform attracted a lot of attention, with many people leaving comments and expressing their support.
Paragraph 2:
A few weeks later, the students organized a follow - up activity. This time, more people joined them, including some of the factory owners who had received their brochures before. The man who had doubted them also showed up. He walked up to Tom and said, “I was wrong. You kids have really made a difference.” With more hands on deck, they not only cleaned the riverbank again but also started a tree - planting project along the river to prevent soil erosion. The river was gradually showing signs of recovery, and the students knew that their continuous efforts were paying off.

【原文】M: Look at all the dogs, cats and bunnies. I just want to take them all back home.

W: Okay. Follow me please. As you can see, it’s bright and furnished.
M: That’s true, but it’s smaller than I expected. But it’s fine with me. I live in it alone after all.
W: Good. So do you like it
M: Yes, it’s near my college and it’s in a good neighborhood. So what about the rent

M: Well, if you really want to eat now, I suggest you go outside.

M: Did you immediately come to the office after you arrived at the building
W: No, since I was not expected until 10 o’clock a.m, I took a quick stroll around the block. I even took some pictures using my cell phone. I saw the statues of William Shakespeare and Charlie Chaplin. I even had a look at Chinatown.

W: The only thing I was missing was sculpture. The watercolor paintings were my favorite.
M: I was also disappointed about the lack of sculpture, but in general I liked it a lot. Hey, how long do you think it takes to become an accomplished artist
W: It’s tough to say. My uncle is a painter and it took him 20 years to get to the point where he could do his art full time.
M: I have always enjoyed oil painting, but the materials are so expensive. I had to give it up.
W: That’s too bad. I guess we all have to make sacrifices.
M: Maybe I just need a cheaper alternative. My niece has been doing a lot of chalk art on her blackboard, and she even likes to show it to her best friend.
W: We should stop by the art supply store on the way home.
M: Okay, as long as the cost of a cab is not too high. I am on a tight budget this month.
W: This one’s on me. You got the taxi last weekend.
M: Awesome. Let’s go to the reception counter. They can help us find the taxi stand.

【原文】
Good evening everyone. In tonight’s program, people in history, I’d like to tell you something about Stephanie Louise Kwolek. As a young girl, Stephanie was different from her classmates. She was an excellent reader with an extremely good memory. She was also very good at math. Stephanie’s love of learning came from her father. Every night when he came home from work, he sat and read a book or newspaper. He was a scientist who studies nature. Together, the father and the daughter would walk into the woods collecting leaves, flowers and seeds. Stephanie stuck her finds in a scrapbook. Her father helped her label and write descriptions of them. He died when she was ten, but their early explorations together inspired Stephanie to pursue a career in science. As Stephanie grew older, she decided to use science to help people and become a doctor. She studied chemistry in college, but when she graduated, she couldn’t afford to go to medical school. Instead, she worked and saved money. She got a job as a chemist at the DuPont company. The job was supposed to be temporary, but Stephanie fell in love with it and never looked back. Her work at DuPont combined her childhood love of science and fabric with her interest in helping people and solving problems, and her creations would change the world.
阅读解析
A篇【导语】本文是一篇应用文。主要讲述了加拿大四个适合户外探险的地方,分别介绍了它们各自的特色和吸引力。
21.细节理解题。根据Best for geological wonders: Gros Morne部分中“The park’s calling card is an ancient treasure — the Tablelands, a plateau pushed up by tectonic (地壳的) plate shifts and one of only a few places in the world you can walk on the earth’s mantle (地幔).(这个公园的名片是一处古老的宝藏——Tablelands,这是一个由地壳板块移动推升形成的高原,也是世界上仅有的几个可以在地球地幔上行走的地方之一。)”可知,从地质学角度来说,Tablelands,这个古老的高原使得格罗斯莫恩国家公园具有吸引力。故选B项。
22.细节理解题。根据Best for soft adventure: Thousand Islands部分中“One of Canada’s smallest national parks, Ontario’s Thousand Islands is located in a region of the same name, and made up of 21 islands and numerous smaller islands in the St. Lawrence River. Formed from the worn-down peaks of ancient mountains, much of it is open for camping — a popular, family-friendly option here.(加拿大最小的国家公园之一,安大略省的千岛湖位于同名地区,由圣劳伦斯河中的21个岛屿和众多较小的岛屿组成。它由古老山脉被侵蚀的山峰形成,这里的大部分区域都开放供露营——这是一个受欢迎的、适合家庭的选择。)”可知,在安大略省的千岛湖公园可以找到适合家庭的露营选择。故选C项。
23.细节理解题。根据Best for a national park pilgrimage: Banff部分中“The action here centres around the skiing town of Banff, but the mountains are home to wildlife such as moose and grizzly bears.(这里的活动以班夫滑雪小镇为中心,但这些山脉是驼鹿和灰熊等野生动物的家园。)”以及Best for wildlife: Jasper部分中“A hiker’s region of wild peaks, it’s hard not to bump into wildlife here. Elk, big horn sheep, and wolves are abundant.(这是一个徒步旅行者的野峰地区,在这里很难不遇到野生动物。麋鹿、大角羊和狼数量众多。)”可知,在Banff和Jasper都能发现各种各样的野生动物。故选D项。
B篇 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要介绍了艺术家Glen Williams的成长经历和艺术创作。同时文章介绍了其近期的展览,指出他对人和社区的关注,通过艺术邀请观众反思自身记忆和经历,建立共享人性的联系。
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“In the heart of Yorkshire, Glen Williams’ work connects with the everyday experiences of the working class. His artistic journey began in the 1970s, shaped by the industrial landscape and the lives of those around him.(在约克郡的中心,Glen Williams的作品与工人阶级的日常生活经历紧密相连。他的艺术之旅始于20世纪70年代,受到了工业景观和周围人生活的熏陶。)”可知,Glen Williams的艺术作品与工人阶级的日常生活经历紧密相连,受到了工业景观和周围人生活的熏陶即受到了他的成长背景的影响。故选D项。
细节理解题。根据文章第二段“Growing up in a working-class family, he liked to go to school. Art was the very subject that truly excited him and he remembered searching for ‘any piece of paper or card’ to create sculptures, often using the backs of envelopes and cardboard boxes.(他成长于一个工人阶级家庭,喜欢上学。艺术是真正让他兴奋的主题,他记得自己为了创作雕塑而四处寻找“任何纸片或纸板”,经常使用信封背面和纸板箱。)”可知,Glen Williams因为对艺术的热爱而四处寻找纸片或纸板来创作雕塑。故选A项。
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Ultimately, he returned to painting while suffering from mental illness. Glen found it very therapeutic (有疗效的) to draw what he was experiencing.(最终,他在患有精神疾病时回到了绘画。Glen发现把自己所经历的画出来很有疗效。)”可知,Glen Williams回到绘画是为了寻求精神上的安慰。故选B项。
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“In the heart of Yorkshire, Glen Williams’ work connects with the everyday experiences of the working class.(在约克郡的中心,Glen Williams的作品与工人阶级的日常生活经历紧密相连。)”以及第四段“Growing up in South Yorkshire, Glen lived in a community of miners and steelworkers. ‘Working-class people feature heavily throughout my work,’ he noted, recalling school trips to coal mines and steelworks. This rich background shapes his paintings, which often show the daily lives and struggles of these individuals.(在南约克郡长大,Glen生活在一个矿工和钢铁工人的社区里。他回忆起学校组织的煤矿和钢铁厂之旅时说:“工人阶级在我的作品中占据重要地位。”这一丰富的背景塑造了他的画作,这些画作经常展现这些人的日常生活和奋斗。)”可知,Glen Williams的艺术作品与工人阶级紧密相关,反映了他们的生活和奋斗。因此,C选项“It helps relate to the working class.(它有助于与工人阶级建立联系)”符合题意。故选C项。
C篇【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍的是不同的几个国家利用科技培养健康的饮食习惯文化。
词句猜测题。根据划线短语前的“Japanese use smartphone apps to monitor their daily consumption of salt, sugar, and calories(日本人使用智能手机应用程序来监测他们每日的盐、糖和卡路里摄入量)”可知,使用应用程序监测每日的盐、糖和卡路里摄入量应是确保人们遵守或者坚持推荐的饮食指南,由此可知,划线短语的意思与“遵守,坚持”意义相近。故选D项。
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Apps like Come Bien (Eat Well) educate users about intake control and the nutritional value of traditional foods like beans, corn, and avocados.(像Come Bien(好好吃)这样的应用程序教育用户关于摄入控制以及传统食物(如豆类、玉米和牛油果)的营养价值。)”可知,Come Bien通过提供应用程序来指导用户控制摄入量和了解传统食物的营养价值,从而帮助墨西哥应对肥胖问题。故选C项。
细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Technology has played a key role in this effort, with apps like Karma reducing food waste by connecting users with discounted meals from local restaurants.(技术在这一努力中发挥了关键作用,像Karma这样的应用程序通过将用户与当地餐馆的折扣餐食连接起来减少食物浪费。)”可知,瑞典通过使用应用程序(如Karma)减少食物浪费来促进可持续饮食习惯。故选A项。
主旨大意题。根据首段中的“Different countries have unique dietary traditions, and advancements in technology are helping individuals maintain these traditions while adapting to modern lifestyles. This passage explores how technology meets with healthy eating habits in various cultures.(不同国家有着独特的饮食传统,而技术的进步正在帮助人们在适应现代生活方式的同时维持这些传统。本文探讨了技术如何在不同文化中与健康饮食习惯相结合。)”可知,全文围绕不同国家如何利用技术促进健康饮食习惯展开讨论,分别介绍了日本、墨西哥和瑞典的例子,因此,题目“不同国家的健康饮食习惯与技术”概括了本文的主题,是最适合的标题。故选C项。
D篇 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章指出气候危机影响食物味道,如西班牙火腿、水果受干旱、升温等影响风味改变,同时食物选择也会导致气候问题,不过人们可通过选择替代蛋白、再生农业等方式打破这一循环。
细节理解题。根据第二段“In Spain, the black Iberian pigs, which are very important for making special ham, usually eat acorns (橡子) and surrounding grass under oak trees. However, because of heatwaves and a five-year drought, these natural foods are becoming less. So, the pigs are now fed olives (橄榄), thereby changing the unique flavour of the ham.(在西班牙,黑伊比利亚猪是制作特殊火腿的重要原料,它们通常吃橡树下的橡子和周围的草。然而,由于热浪和长达五年的干旱,这些天然食物越来越少了。因此,猪现在被喂橄榄,从而改变了火腿的独特风味)”可知,食物来源的短缺和替代饲料是导致火腿风味改变的原因。故选C项。
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Typically, warm days and cool nights improve the sugar and acid content in fruits(通常,温暖的白天和凉爽的夜晚会提高水果中的糖和酸含量)”和下文“However, global warming makes this hard to achieve. For example, Japanese apples are becoming less acidic, softer, and drier due to early blooming and high temperatures during growth.(然而,全球变暖使这一目标难以实现。例如,由于早熟和生长过程中的高温,日本苹果变得不那么酸、更软、更干)”可知,全球变暖使得水果的成分有所变化,日本苹果变得不那么可口,味道不佳。由此可知,原先的气候条件可以促成水果达到最佳的风味。由此推知,划线词意思是“最好的,最佳的”,与A项Best意思一致。故选A项。
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中“The Good Food Institute, a US group, believes people will choose alternative protein if they are as tasty and affordable as meat.(美国健康食品研究所认为,如果替代蛋白和肉类一样美味又实惠,人们会选择它们)”可知,该机构认为,替代蛋白足够美味和便宜的情况下,人们会选择它们。故选B项。
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其是第一段“Your favourite foods might not taste the same in the future, and the climate crisis is behind it.(你最喜欢的食物在未来可能尝起来不一样,而气候危机是背后的原因)”可知,文章主要讨论了气候危机如何影响食物的味道,包括干旱、气温上升和海平面上升等因素。由此可知,D项“气候危机改变食物味道”最能概括文章的主旨。故选D项。
七选五解析

G根据前文“ Put in a performance.When you're practising a poem, read it aloud, as dramatically and emotionally as you can”可知,在学习一首诗的时候要辅助表演,尽可能夸张地、有感情地朗读。故此处是阐述表演的具体方式,G选项阐述了表演的其他方法,承接上文,符合语境。
E根据后一句“And,in the process, you'Il be making your memory stronger for everything”可知,在这个过程中,你的记忆能力会增强。观察本空位置可知,本段是对文章的总结,E选项正是对前文的总结。

Wild Places for Outdoor Adventures in Canada
Best for geological wonders: Gros Morne
Despite being home to landscapes so breathtaking, Newfoundland and Labrador remains one of Canada’s most overlooked provinces. Taking pride of place on its west coast is UNESCO-listed Gros Morne National Park. The park’s calling card is an ancient treasure — the Tablelands, a plateau pushed up by tectonic (地壳的) plate shifts and one of only a few places in the world you can walk on the earth’s mantle (地幔).
Best for soft adventure: Thousand Islands
One of Canada’s smallest national parks, Ontario’s Thousand Islands is located in a region of the same name, and made up of 21 islands and numerous smaller islands in the St. Lawrence River. Formed from the worn-down peaks of ancient mountains, much of it is open for camping — a popular, family-friendly option here.
Best for a national park pilgrimage: Banff
Canada’s first national park, Banff sits in the palm of the snow-dusted Rocky Mountains and has drawn travellers to its natural hot springs since it first opened in 1885. Those mineral baths also inspired the construction of the Fairmont Banff Springs Hotel, a 135-year-old, Scottish baronial-style castle. The action here centres around the skiing town of Banff, but the mountains are home to wildlife such as moose and grizzly bears.
Best for wildlife: Jasper
Banff’s northern, lesser-visited neighbour. Jasper, is double its size and the largest national park in the Canadian Rockies. A hiker’s region of wild peaks, it’s hard not to bump into wildlife here. Elk, big horn sheep, and wolves are abundant. Time your visit for spring or autumn when wildlife-watching is at its peak. Non-hikers can enjoy cable-rides for valley views and star-gazing at night — Jasper is the second-largest Dark Sky Preserve, in the world.
21. What makes Gros Morne National Park attractive geologically
A. The availability of camping. B. The Tablelands, an ancient plateau.
C. The presence of natural hot springs. D. Its location in Newfoundland and Labrador.
22. Where can you find a family-friendly camping option in Ontario
A. In Banff National Park. B. In Jasper National Park.
C. In Thousand Islands Park. D. In Gros Morne National Park.
23. What do Banff and Jasper have in common
A. Their hot season is spring. B. Their hot springs attract tourists.
C. They have a history of over 100 years. D. A wide range of wildlife can be found there.

In the heart of Yorkshire, Glen Williams’ work connects with the everyday experiences of the working class. His artistic journey began in the 1970s, shaped by the industrial landscape and the lives of those around him. Glen’s story speaks to art lovers, especially those who have walked similar paths, as he brings a deep understanding of community and resilience to his work.
Growing up in a working-class family, he liked to go to school. Art was the very subject that truly excited him and he remembered searching for “any piece of paper or card” to create sculptures, often using the backs of envelopes and cardboard boxes. This resourcefulness remains with him and he continues to include abandoned materials in his art, showing his commitment to sustainability.
His journey as an artist was not always easy. “I didn’t really pick up a paint brush for the next 40 years,” he revealed, as life’s responsibilities, like work and family, took over. Ultimately, he returned to painting while suffering from mental illness. Glen found it very therapeutic (有疗效的) to draw what he was experiencing. He passionately advocated for art therapy, stating, “I think there should be a lot more made of it in society,” stressing the need for creative outlets (发泄途径) in mental health.
Growing up in South Yorkshire, Glen lived in a community of miners and steelworkers. “Working-class people feature heavily throughout my work,” he noted, recalling school trips to coal mines and steelworks. This rich background shapes his paintings, which often show the daily lives and struggles of these individuals. He captures their dignity and spirit, inviting viewers to connect with their stories.
His recent exhibition at Huddersfield Art Gallery highlights his focus on people and community. Through his art, Glen invites viewers to reflect on their own memories and experiences, creating a connection that celebrates shared humanity.

In today’s world, technology plays a significant role in shaping how people approach healthy eating habits. Different countries have unique dietary traditions, and advancements in technology are helping individuals maintain these traditions while adapting to modern lifestyles. This passage explores how technology meets with healthy eating habits in various cultures.
Japan is known for its balanced and nutritious diet, which includes fresh fish, rice, vegetables, and fermented (发酵) foods like miso (味增). Technology has enhanced this tradition through apps that track nutritional intake and provide personalized meal plans. For example, many Japanese use smartphone apps to monitor their daily consumption of salt, sugar, and calories, ensuring they adhere to the recommended dietary guidelines. Additionally, vending machines and convenience stores now offer healthier options, such as low-calorie meals and snacks, thanks to advancements in food technology.
Mexico faces challenges with obesity and diabetes (糖尿病), but technology is helping to promote healthier eating habits. Apps like Come Bien (Eat Well) educate users about intake control and the nutritional value of traditional foods like beans, corn, and avocados. Plus, food delivery platforms now feature “healthy menus” that highlight low-calorie options, making it easier for people to choose nutritious meals. Furthermore, the government also implemented QR codes on food packaging, allowing consumers to scan and access detailed nutritional information.
Sweden is a leader in promoting sustainable and healthy eating habits. Technology has played a key role in this effort, with apps like Karma reducing food waste by connecting users with discounted meals from local restaurants. Swedes also use apps to track their intake of plant-based foods, fitting with the country’s focus on sustainability. Additionally, smart fridges equipped with cameras and inventory systems help families plan meals and reduce overeating.
28. What dose the underlined phrase “adhere to” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. attend to B. contrary to C. look to D. stick to
29. How is Come Bien helping Mexico address obesity
A. By promoting traditional high-calorie dishes.
B. By reducing the availability of healthy food options.
C. By providing apps that instruct users about portion (份量) control.
D. By finding local farmers’ markets and organic food suppliers.
30. What is one way Sweden promotes sustainable eating habits
A. By using apps to decrease food waste.
B. By decreasing the role of technology.
C. By increasing the use of processed foods.
D. By encouraging the consumption of more meat.

A. The History of Dietary Traditions in Different Countries.
B. The Importance of Spices in Western and Eastern cuisine.
C. Healthy Eating Habits and Technology in Different Countries.
D. The Challenges of Food and Technology in Japan, Mexico and Sweden.
D
Your favourite foods might not taste the same in the future, and the climate crisis is behind it.
In Spain, the black Iberian pigs, which are very important for making special ham, usually eat acorns (橡子) and surrounding grass under oak trees. However, because of heatwaves and a five-year drought, these natural foods are becoming less. So, the pigs are now fed olives, thereby changing the unique flavour of the ham.
Drought also affects how fruits taste. For example, watermelons and cantaloupes (香瓜) taste different when there’s a drought. Researchers from a Spanish tech centre told a Spanish newspaper that sugars and other compounds (混合物) build up during droughts, changing the taste of food, sometimes for better, sometimes for worse.
Beyond drought, rising temperatures and sea levels also influence food flavours. Typically, warm days and cool nights improve the sugar and acid content in fruits, which are essential for the optimal flavour. However, global warming makes this hard to achieve. For example, Japanese apples are becoming less acidic, softer, and drier due to early blooming and high temperatures during growth.
While the food we eat is deeply influenced by the climate crisis, our food choices also cause it. Eating meat and dairy from cows has a big impact on the climate. Raising livestock (牲畜) produces a lot of greenhouse gases. Making animal protein also needs more land, energy and water than making plant-based protein.
This may seem like a problem that can’t be solved, but we can break this cycle. The Good Food Institute, a US group, believes people will choose alternative protein if they are as tasty and affordable as meat.
Meanwhile, more people have started to take action. According to The New York Times, Will Hlamris, a US farmer, practises regenerative (再生的) farming, allowing cows to move around freely, using less chemical use and disturbing the soil less, which is more environmentally friendly.
32. What changes the flavour of the ham
A. The harvest of acorns and the surrounding grass.
B. People’s need to make the flavour special.
C. The shortage of food sources and alternative feed.
D. The unique compounds caused by heatwaves.
33. What does the underlined word “optimal” in Paragraph 4 mean
A. Best. B. Strange. C. Worst. D. Common.
34. According to the Good Food Institute, people will choose alternative protein if ______.
A. the environment changes B. they are delicious and cheap enough
C .they are cheaper than meat D. the greenhouse gases disappear
35. What’s the main idea of the text
A. Benefits of regenerative farming. B. Food production affected by climate.
C. Livestock’s role in making protein. D. Climate crisis changing food taste.
第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项, 并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。选项中有两项为多余选项。
I learned my first poem written by John Donne at school and I still remember the whole thing today. It’s just one of many poems I’ve stored in my memory, ready to recite and enjoy whenever I please.
It seems that poetry learning has gone out of fashion, but I’m still a fan because it doesn’t just breed a lifelong love of poetry. 36 So why not dig out a poem you love and use it to exercise your recall
Step 1. Know that poems are designed to stick in your mind. 37 See how they leave you with memory-arousing images, how they surprise you by breaking the rules, and how they control your senses and emotions. These are all great ways to make information more memorable.
Step 2. 38 When you’re learning a poem, try linking the last word of one line to the first word of the next. In my John Donne’s poem, one line ends with “see”, and the next starts with “which”, so I pictured a “sea witch”. Making links like these can also help with learning names, and many other kinds of information
Step 3. Put in a performance. When you’re practising a poem, read it aloud, as dramatically and emotionally as you can. 39
Step 4. Enjoy yourself. Learning poems gives your memory a workout, which improves your mood and gets you into good learning habits. Have fun putting rhymes into your shopping list, using rhythm to learn names, or “performing” revision notes before an exam.
40 And, in the process, you’ll be making your memory stronger for everything.
A. Learn through links since memory relies on connections.
B. It also boosts confidence and develops lasting memory skills.
C. So identify the tricks poets use — rhythm, rhyme and repetition.
D. Thus, short poems are good options because they are easily memorized.
E. Follow these steps to appreciate poems and enjoy them wherever you are.
F. Memory experts believe poetry learning can even cultivate an interest in study.
G. Adding gestures and moving around the room can also strengthen your learning.

第二节 读后续写(满分25分)
阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
Last weekend, a group of high-school students, including Tom, Sarah, and their friends, participated in an environmental protection activity at a nearby river. The activity was organized by their school’s environmental club to raise awareness about water pollution and encourage people to take action to protect the river.
When they arrived at the riverbank, they were shocked by what they saw. The river was filled with all kinds of garbage, from plastic bottles to old tires. The water was dark and smelly, and there were hardly any signs of aquatic life. Tom frowned and said, “This is even worse than we thought. We really need to do something to save this river.”
The students immediately got to work. They divided themselves into groups. One group started to pick up the garbage along the riverbank, using long-handled tools to reach the trash floating in the water. Another group went around to the nearby factories and shops, distributing brochures about environmental protection and explaining the importance of not polluting the river. Sarah was in charge of taking pictures and recording videos to document the situation and their efforts.
As they were working, a middle-aged man walked by. He looked at the students with curiosity and asked, “What are you kids doing ” Tom stepped forward and replied, “Sir, we’re trying to clean up this river. It’s in a really bad state, and we want to make people aware of the problem.” The man nodded, but then he said, “Do you really think a few kids like you can make a difference This pollution has been going on for years.” Tom was a bit discouraged by his words, but he still firmly said, “We have to try. Every little bit helps, right ” The man just shrugged and walked away.
After a long day of hard work, the riverbank looked much cleaner. However, they knew that this was just a small step, and there was still a long way to go to fully restore the river’s health...
注意:
1. 所续写短文的词数应为150左右;
2. 续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好。
Paragraph 1:
That night, Tom couldn’t fall asleep. He kept thinking about the man’s words and the current situation of the river.
