Ⅱ 读后续写
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Winter break was approaching，and all Scott wanted to do was go snowboarding.Unfortunately，Scott's parents had different plans.They had booked a week-long tropical cruise(热带航游).Scott hated warm weather and asked if he could just stay at his best friend's house so he could snowboard every day at the local mountain.His parents didn't want
to hear anything of it.He kept debating them about the topic，but they would not change their minds.Family time was important to them，and it was a tradition that they spend winter break together.
The week of the cruise arrived，and Scott continued to mumble(咕哝) his complaints as he and his family left their house to head south.Scott's dad told him that he would only make the vacation worse for himself if he didn't change his attitude and open his mind to a new experience.Scott still couldn't stop thinking about all of the snow he was leaving behind.
When they arrived at the port to board the ship，Scott had a hard time admitting that he was actually impressed with the size of the ship.He had seen the brochures but seeing the ship in person was a whole different animal.Then he remembered that the brochure said something about a surfing pool.Maybe surfing would be somewhat like snowboarding.After all，it involved riding a board.
Scott climbed aboard the ship with his parents，and then they walked around to check everything out.He couldn't believe how fancy the
accommodations were.The dining room looked like a royal hall；the game room had all of his favourite games；the ship's deck(甲板) had several different swimming pools for different purposes.Then Scott saw the surfing pool.It was incredible.It wasn't a big pool，but it had big waves，and the young man who was demonstrating how to ride the waves made it look like a ton of fun.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；
2.请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
Scott asked his parents if he could try surfing.
Gradually，Scott began to love the cruise.

情感线：
unhappy → impressed → surprised

[参考范文]
Scott asked his parents if he could try surfing.They said，“Of course.” And much to Scott's surprise，they wanted to try surfing too.When Scott and his parents had their swimwear on，Scott's dad went first and only lasted about five seconds before he wiped out.Then it was his mom's turn.She actually made it longer than his dad did.When it was Scott's turn，he was excited but a little bit nervous.He hopped on the board and took a stance similar to his snowboarding stance.Then the
waves started.It felt similar to snowboarding but different at the same time.On his first ride，Scott rode for almost 30 seconds before wiping out，about which he was crazy.

first day of the cruise.With a new hobby，and great memories，he apologized to his parents for his earlier moan and groan, and told them it was his best vacation ever.

听下面一段独白，回答第17至第20小题。
W：Skyscrapers have become very common in Europe. Cities such as Frankfurt, Madrid, Valencia, Malmo and Paris, all have very tall buildings under construction. However, the center of the world for skyscrapers is neither Europe nor America. The tallest buildings in the world are being built in Asia and the Middle East.At more than 500 meters tall, the tallest building in the world was Tokyo Skytree East Tower in 2015. However, when completed in 2008, the Burj Dubai in the United Arab
Emirates rises 162 stories and more than 800 meters. Another building in Dubai is planned to be over 1，200 meters tall. That's about three times as tall as the Empire State Building. Skyscrapers are part of our future for many reasons. For one, they require less land to build and use less electricity and other resources.Plus, people who live in cities with high rises are less likely to own a car. In New York and London, for example, the majority of residents do not drive. Still, a lot of people think that really tall buildings ruin the look of a city. What do you think
