Today’s young adults seem to avoid phone calls altogether,with a quarter admitting they’ve never even answered one.
A new survey shows a clear change in communication styles.Texting plays a leading role,with over 70% of young adults loving it.Voice notes are also very popular,being liked by nearly 40%.It seems linked to a general dislike of unexpected calls; more than half connect them with bad news.Interestingly,this aversion (讨厌) to phone calls isn’t shared by elders.Only 1% of those aged 35 — 54 use more texts than calls.
The survey suggests a generational change in communication styles.Phone calls,once a useful tool for connection,are now seemingly dropping in favour of other methods like texting and voice notes.
As reported,the young have played a main role in the online messages and text messages.An ordinary explanation for their unwillingness to answer phone calls is the pressure connected with them.More than half of them think there are negative news when receiving unexpected calls.The young generally like planned phone conversations as the primary means of communication.
Whatever the case,it’s clear that today,we don’t even imagine communicating without the help of a phone.New technologies,such as social media,would ruin human relationships in the long term.As a matter of fact,this may already be happening.
Indeed,we can’t ignore the value of the voice in human relations.Listening to the expression of another person brings us much closer to them.It’s also easier to emotionally connect with others in this way.Text messages are more often misunderstood.When communicating something serious,it’s always better to make a phone call.
【语篇导读】 本文是说明文。文章主要讨论了年轻人对电话通话的回避以及对短信和语音留言的偏好,这表明通信方式发生了代际变化,而电话作为联络工具的地位逐渐被其他方式取代。同时,文章也强调了声音在人际关系中的重要性,指出在严肃沟通中,电话仍然是更好的选择。
(　　)28.What causes the change in communication styles
[A]The young are unwilling to receive unexpected calls.
[B]All of the young think voice notes are popular.
[C]Few young people connect them with bad news.
[D]The young feel pleasant to answer phone calls.
【答案】 A
【解析】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“It seems linked to a...with bad news.”可知,年轻人不愿意接听意外的电话是导致通信方式变化的主要原因。故选A。
(　　)29.What the function of the numbers listed in Paragraph 2
[A]To provide evidence.
[B]To make a comparison.
[C]To draw a conclusion.
[D]To explain the reasons.
【答案】 B
【解析】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Texting plays a leading... liked by nearly 40%.”可知,发短信在其中占主导地位,超过70%的年轻人喜欢发短信。语音留言也很受欢迎,有近40%的人喜欢。再结合该段最后两句可知,有趣的是,老年人并不反感打电话。在35至54岁的人群中,只有1%的人发短信比打电话多。由此可推知,该段列举数字的目的是比较不同年龄段的人在通信方式上的偏好。故选B。
(　　)30.What can we learn about making a phone call from the last paragraph
[A]It is easier to respond to.
[B]It makes us feel far away.
[C]It brings a closer connection.
[D]It is more often misunderstood.
【答案】 C
【解析】 推理判断题。根据最后一段前三句可知,倾听声音在人际关系中很重要,能更好地维系亲近感,更容易建立情感联系。由此可推知,打电话可以带来更紧密的联系。故选C。
(　　)31.What is the best title for the text
[A]Answer a Phone Call in No Time!
[B]Put Away Your Phone While Talking!
[C]Can Making a Phone Call Be Replaced
[D]How Can We Communicate in the Future
【答案】 C
【解析】 标题归纳题。通读全文可知,文章主要讨论了年轻人对电话通话的回避以及对短信和语音留言的偏好,这表明通信方式发生了代际变化,电话作为联络工具的地位逐渐被其他方式取代。同时,文章也强调了声音在人际关系中的重要性,指出在严肃沟通中,电话仍然是更好的选择。因此,C项契合文章主旨,最适合作为文章标题。故选C。
D
Nature works like a big clock.Everything is arranged in order and interconnected.Every part has its place and its role.Take the wolf for example.As meat-eaters,wolves regulate the number of plant eaters so that they do not reproduce too many.All animals and plants are closely related in a system.
The wolves remind me of a story from my childhood when my grandfather gave me an old clock.The first thing I did was take the clock apart to find out how it worked.Even though I was sure that I knew how to put it back together in working order,I couldn’t do it.After I rebuilt it,there were a few parts left over,and there was a grandfather who was not in the best of moods.In the wild,wolves play the role of such parts.If we remove them,not only do the enemies of sheep and cattle disappear,but the system of nature also begins to run differently,so differently that rivers change course and many local bird species (物种) die out.
And things can also go wrong when a species is added.For example,the introduction of a nonnative fish leads to a great decrease in the local deer population.Is that because of a fish The earth’s ecosystems,it seems,are a bit too complex (复杂的) for us to draw up simple rules of cause and effect.Even protection work can have unexpected results.Who knew,for example,that recovering crane(鹤) populations in Europe would affect the production of Iberian ham
So it’s high time we took a good look at the interconnections between species both large and small.It’s important for us to realise that even small interventions (干预) can have huge influences,and we’d do better to keep our hands off everything in nature that we do not have to touch.
【语篇导读】 本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了大自然就像一个在运作的巨大的钟表。万物皆有序排列且相互联系。作者建议人们在干预自然界之前要三思而后行。
(　　)32.What does the underlined word “regulate” mean in Paragraph 1
[A]Control. [B]Count.
[C]Record. [D]Increase.
【答案】 A
【解析】 猜测词义题。根据画线词所在句及第一段最后一句可知,作为食肉动物,狼会regulate食草动物的数量,这样它们就不会繁殖太多。所有的动物和植物在一个系统中是密切相关的。据此可知,狼会控制食草动物的数量,这样就会避免食草动物过度繁殖,因此画线词与A项同义。故选A。
(　　)33.What does the author want to show with the story in Paragraph 2
[A]Curiosity kills the cat.
[B]Every part matters.
[C]Clocks are hard to rebuild.
[D]Grandfather’s love lasts.
【答案】 B
【解析】 推理判断题。根据第二段可知,灰狼使“我”想起了一个童年的故事,当时“我”的祖父给了“我”一个旧时钟。“我”做的第一件事就是将时钟拆开,想找出它是如何工作的。尽管“我”很确定“我”知道如何把它拼装回工作状态,但“我”却做不到。在“我”重新组装它之后,还剩下一些零件,而祖父的情绪也不是很好。在野外,灰狼扮演的就是这样的零件的角色。据此可知,作者通过拆解闹钟却无法复原的故事,类比了如果移除自然界中的某个物种(如狼),就会导致整个生态系统失衡。因此,作者想要表达的是每个部分都很重要,不应该被随意移除或改变。故选B。
(　　)34.Why can things also go wrong when a species is added
[A]Because local species will disappear soon.
[B]Because rules of cause and effect are simple in nature.
[C]Because protection projects are too hard to complete.
[D]Because the interconnections in nature are complex.
【答案】 D
【解析】 细节理解题。根据第三段前两句以及第四句可知,地球上的生态系统非常复杂,添加新物种可能会破坏原有的生态平衡,导致意想不到的结果。因此,D项符合题意。
故选D。
(　　)35.What does the author suggest people do
[A]Pay more attention to small animals.
[B]Stay away from protection work.
[C]Think twice before stepping in nature.
[D]Take a new look at meat-eaters.
【答案】 C
【解析】 推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句可知,作者认为即使是微小的干预也可能对自然界产生巨大的影响。由此可推知,作者建议人们在干预自然界之前要三思,C项符合题意。故选C。

Nature,while beautiful,could also be unpredictable and merciless.But most importantly we bear in mind that in the darkest times,there’s always a light at the end of the tunnel,just like Mrs Evans’ cabin light.
One bright summer day,my friend Peter and I decided to venture into the unexplored trails of the Great Smoky Mountains.Blessed with rich biodiversity and fascinating landscapes,the national park seemed a perfect getaway.Little did we know that our casual hike would soon turn into an unexpected personal incident,forever engraved in our memories.
We set off early in the morning,equipped with our backpacks and a map that was supposed to guide us through the winding trails.The sun was up,casting long shadows on the forest floor as we set off on our journey.We trekked (艰难行走),laughed,and marveled at the beauty of nature around us.
As we trekked through the dense forests,taking in the natural wonders around us,we couldn’t help but feel a sense of adventure coursing through our veins.The trail was rugged and uneven,but we persevered through the challenging landscape.
Midway through our expedition,we stumbled upon a breathtaking waterfall,its glistening waters cascading down the rocks in a quiet and peaceful melody.We sat down by the water’s edge,taking a moment to get lost in the beauty of nature.The cool mist from the waterfall enveloped us,and we felt refreshed and energetic.
As the day wore on,we ventured deeper into the wilderness,eager to explore every corner of this natural paradise.We were so absorbed in the beauty of nature that just didn’t notice our way and it seemed that we could not find the way back to the familiar part of the forest.Panicking,we scrambled to find our way back but the dense vegetation and winding trails only served to confuse us further.We tried to remember any possible signs that might lead us back.No sooner had we celebrated our return to the clear trails than something worse happened.

(Text 2)
M:It’s gotten a lot darker since lunchtime.When I woke up,it looked like it was going to be a nice day.
W:My phone says it will get windy soon,and there will be rain tonight.
(Text 3)
M:Do you want to take the flight at 8:00 this morning or the flight at 3:00 this afternoon
W:I don’t want to get up too early,so I prefer the latter one.I believe it will also give me enough time to prepare for tomorrow’s meeting at 9:00 a.m.
(Text 4)
M:Hello,I would like to have two shirts washed in the usual way.How much is it for each shirt
W:$15.
M:Great.I will collect them the day after tomorrow at 3:00 p.m.

M:Hello,Paula!This is Johnny.Are you feeling better now
W:Yes.I will go to school tomorrow.
M:Glad to hear that.I’m calling for a notice.In order to have a better understanding of our school,we will see a short movie about our school tomorrow.
W:About our school It might be boring.
M:No.It will be meaningful and interesting.And we will have a discussion afterwards and share our comments.

M:From 2:30 to 4:00 in the afternoon in the library.
W:Thank you,Johnny.I will be there.
(Text 7)
M:French is so hard!Do you know what’s the most difficult part for me
W:The grammar
M:Yes,but only one particular area.I can’t remember if a word is male or female.
W:You have to just remember those.
M:But there are so many,and I can’t find a pattern! For instance,the moon is female and the sun is male.I know those are common in different languages.But a chair is female and hair is male.I think that hair would be considered female!I just don’t get it.
W:It can be very confusing.Don’t let it get you down,Andy.You’re doing well this term.One bad quiz score will hardly affect your grade.Your reading is excellent and so is your writing.You’ll get used to this part of the language soon enough.
(Text 8)
M:Where are you We are all waiting for you.We’re expecting Mary any minute now!
W:I’m so sorry.There was a lot of traffic today.I think there was a major accident on the freeway,but I exited before I could see what happened.I’m five minutes away.
M:I heard on the radio that a truck had crashed into another car,which caused a big traffic jam.Are you OK
W:Yeah.The good thing is that I decided to change my route.My GPS system is so useful! I don’t know how I would get around otherwise.
M:Did you remember Mary’s gift
W:I sure did.I have it right here with me in the car.Is everyone else there already I can’t wait to see her face when she walks in.Do you think she knows
M:Everyone is here.I think we all did a good job at keeping the party a secret...unless you arrive after Mary!Hurry up!
W:OK,OK...just make sure all the lights are off so she doesn’t see anyone.
(Text 9)
M:Can I help you find something
W:Yes,I’m going on vacation next week,and I need a book to take with me.
M:What do you usually like to read
W:I love classics with strong female characters.I get tired of reading about men all the time.I’m looking for something easy and with a happy ending.I don’t want to think too hard while I’m travelling!
M:Where are you going Sometimes it’s nice to read about the place you’re visiting.
W:England.
M:You might like an author like Jane Austen,who writes with a lot of humour.Or Emily Bronte,another classic author.Her writing is full of emotion.It isn’t terribly enjoyable,but it always has powerful female characters.
W:I love Austen and Bronte,but I didn’t think about mysteries.Are they frightening
M:Not at all.The main story is about solving the crime,rather than the murder.I can suggest a few titles.
W:I hope I have time to finish the book!I’m travelling with my children,and they often interrupt my reading.
M:Let’s look for some books for them,too.We have a wonderful youth section right over here.

Today’s young adults seem to avoid phone calls altogether,with a quarter admitting they’ve never even answered one.
A new survey shows a clear change in communication styles.Texting plays a leading role,with over 70% of young adults loving it.Voice notes are also very popular,being liked by nearly 40%.It seems linked to a general dislike of unexpected calls; more than half connect them with bad news.Interestingly,this aversion (讨厌) to phone calls isn’t shared by elders.Only 1% of those aged 35 — 54 use more texts than calls.
The survey suggests a generational change in communication styles.Phone calls,once a useful tool for connection,are now seemingly dropping in favour of other methods like texting and voice notes.
As reported,the young have played a main role in the online messages and text messages.An ordinary explanation for their unwillingness to answer phone calls is the pressure connected with them.More than half of them think there are negative news when receiving unexpected calls.The young generally like planned phone conversations as the primary means of communication.
Whatever the case,it’s clear that today,we don’t even imagine communicating without the help of a phone.New technologies,such as social media,would ruin human relationships in the long term.As a matter of fact,this may already be happening.
Indeed,we can’t ignore the value of the voice in human relations.Listening to the expression of another person brings us much closer to them.It’s also easier to emotionally connect with others in this way.Text messages are more often misunderstood.When communicating something serious,it’s always better to make a phone call.
【语篇导读】 本文是说明文。文章主要讨论了年轻人对电话通话的回避以及对短信和语音留言的偏好,这表明通信方式发生了代际变化,而电话作为联络工具的地位逐渐被其他方式取代。同时,文章也强调了声音在人际关系中的重要性,指出在严肃沟通中,电话仍然是更好的选择。
(　　)28.What causes the change in communication styles
[A]The young are unwilling to receive unexpected calls.
[B]All of the young think voice notes are popular.
[C]Few young people connect them with bad news.
[D]The young feel pleasant to answer phone calls.
【答案】 A
【解析】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“It seems linked to a...with bad news.”可知,年轻人不愿意接听意外的电话是导致通信方式变化的主要原因。故选A。
(　　)29.What the function of the numbers listed in Paragraph 2
[A]To provide evidence.
[B]To make a comparison.
[C]To draw a conclusion.
[D]To explain the reasons.
【答案】 B
【解析】 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Texting plays a leading... liked by nearly 40%.”可知,发短信在其中占主导地位,超过70%的年轻人喜欢发短信。语音留言也很受欢迎,有近40%的人喜欢。再结合该段最后两句可知,有趣的是,老年人并不反感打电话。在35至54岁的人群中,只有1%的人发短信比打电话多。由此可推知,该段列举数字的目的是比较不同年龄段的人在通信方式上的偏好。故选B。
(　　)30.What can we learn about making a phone call from the last paragraph
[A]It is easier to respond to.
[B]It makes us feel far away.
[C]It brings a closer connection.
[D]It is more often misunderstood.
【答案】 C
【解析】 推理判断题。根据最后一段前三句可知,倾听声音在人际关系中很重要,能更好地维系亲近感,更容易建立情感联系。由此可推知,打电话可以带来更紧密的联系。故选C。
(　　)31.What is the best title for the text
[A]Answer a Phone Call in No Time!
[B]Put Away Your Phone While Talking!
[C]Can Making a Phone Call Be Replaced
[D]How Can We Communicate in the Future
【答案】 C
【解析】 标题归纳题。通读全文可知,文章主要讨论了年轻人对电话通话的回避以及对短信和语音留言的偏好,这表明通信方式发生了代际变化,电话作为联络工具的地位逐渐被其他方式取代。同时,文章也强调了声音在人际关系中的重要性,指出在严肃沟通中,电话仍然是更好的选择。因此,C项契合文章主旨,最适合作为文章标题。故选C。
D
Nature works like a big clock.Everything is arranged in order and interconnected.Every part has its place and its role.Take the wolf for example.As meat-eaters,wolves regulate the number of plant eaters so that they do not reproduce too many.All animals and plants are closely related in a system.
The wolves remind me of a story from my childhood when my grandfather gave me an old clock.The first thing I did was take the clock apart to find out how it worked.Even though I was sure that I knew how to put it back together in working order,I couldn’t do it.After I rebuilt it,there were a few parts left over,and there was a grandfather who was not in the best of moods.In the wild,wolves play the role of such parts.If we remove them,not only do the enemies of sheep and cattle disappear,but the system of nature also begins to run differently,so differently that rivers change course and many local bird species (物种) die out.
And things can also go wrong when a species is added.For example,the introduction of a nonnative fish leads to a great decrease in the local deer population.Is that because of a fish The earth’s ecosystems,it seems,are a bit too complex (复杂的) for us to draw up simple rules of cause and effect.Even protection work can have unexpected results.Who knew,for example,that recovering crane(鹤) populations in Europe would affect the production of Iberian ham
So it’s high time we took a good look at the interconnections between species both large and small.It’s important for us to realise that even small interventions (干预) can have huge influences,and we’d do better to keep our hands off everything in nature that we do not have to touch.
【语篇导读】 本文是说明文。文章主要介绍了大自然就像一个在运作的巨大的钟表。万物皆有序排列且相互联系。作者建议人们在干预自然界之前要三思而后行。
(　　)32.What does the underlined word “regulate” mean in Paragraph 1
[A]Control. [B]Count.
[C]Record. [D]Increase.
【答案】 A
【解析】 猜测词义题。根据画线词所在句及第一段最后一句可知,作为食肉动物,狼会regulate食草动物的数量,这样它们就不会繁殖太多。所有的动物和植物在一个系统中是密切相关的。据此可知,狼会控制食草动物的数量,这样就会避免食草动物过度繁殖,因此画线词与A项同义。故选A。
(　　)33.What does the author want to show with the story in Paragraph 2
[A]Curiosity kills the cat.
[B]Every part matters.
[C]Clocks are hard to rebuild.
[D]Grandfather’s love lasts.
【答案】 B
【解析】 推理判断题。根据第二段可知,灰狼使“我”想起了一个童年的故事,当时“我”的祖父给了“我”一个旧时钟。“我”做的第一件事就是将时钟拆开,想找出它是如何工作的。尽管“我”很确定“我”知道如何把它拼装回工作状态,但“我”却做不到。在“我”重新组装它之后,还剩下一些零件,而祖父的情绪也不是很好。在野外,灰狼扮演的就是这样的零件的角色。据此可知,作者通过拆解闹钟却无法复原的故事,类比了如果移除自然界中的某个物种(如狼),就会导致整个生态系统失衡。因此,作者想要表达的是每个部分都很重要,不应该被随意移除或改变。故选B。
(　　)34.Why can things also go wrong when a species is added
[A]Because local species will disappear soon.
[B]Because rules of cause and effect are simple in nature.
[C]Because protection projects are too hard to complete.
[D]Because the interconnections in nature are complex.
【答案】 D
【解析】 细节理解题。根据第三段前两句以及第四句可知,地球上的生态系统非常复杂,添加新物种可能会破坏原有的生态平衡,导致意想不到的结果。因此,D项符合题意。
故选D。
(　　)35.What does the author suggest people do
[A]Pay more attention to small animals.
[B]Stay away from protection work.
[C]Think twice before stepping in nature.
[D]Take a new look at meat-eaters.
【答案】 C
【解析】 推理判断题。根据最后一段最后一句可知,作者认为即使是微小的干预也可能对自然界产生巨大的影响。由此可推知,作者建议人们在干预自然界之前要三思,C项符合题意。故选C。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
阅读下面的短文,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。
It is a known fact that colours have an impact on our health.36.　　　 We could be “in the pink of health”.However,we could be “off-colour” or we may be “feeling blue”.
Sometimes,you may catch someone “in a black mood”.
37.　　　 If you go to a room that is painted just black,it can lead to depression.Experts have warned that we should avoid decorating any room entirely in black,however many teenagers want to,especially during the more troublesome years.A room that is painted totally white is also depressing,as white is associated with sterile (无菌的) environments like hospitals and bathrooms.It can make the room seem a bit cold,and the mood of the person will be low.
Research into the physiological effects of colour has shown our spirit is lifted by warm colours.38.　　　 People just feel stimulated and better.Cool colours like blue and green are comforting and calming.Doctors often use these colours to relieve tension and stress.Blue,for instance,is associated with tranquil surroundings.39.　　　 Other hospitals are now using soft green,blue,peach,and sunny yellow on walls and even sheets and gowns.These colours seem to help patients to get well quicker.
Nutritionists and medical researchers have emphasised that we should take in a rainbow of colours.40.　　　 We should consume fruit and vegetables of five different colours in each meal.This is why we are encouraged to eat green vegetables,tomatoes and pumpkins.
A.We use colours to describe our well-being.
B.Blue light is used for a calming effect in some mental hospitals.
C.Research has found that colours can affect how we feel emotionally.
D.Colours play an important part in people’s daily life and everyday work.
E.Red,orange,and yellow are the colours that energise people and deliver warmth.
F.The stronger the colours are,the more depressed your mood will become.
G.That is to include all the colours of fruit and vegetables in our diet to stay healthy.
【语篇导读】 本文是说明文。文章阐述了颜色会影响人们的情绪和健康的观点。
36.【答案】 A
【解析】 根据上文“It is a known fact...on our health.”以及下文“We could be ‘in the pink of health’...someone ‘in a black mood’.”可知,此处是在用颜色描述人们的健康状态,所以A项承接上文,并引出下文,符合语境。故选A。
37.【答案】 C
【解析】 设空处位于段首,是本段的中心句。根据下文可知,本段讲述了颜色对情绪的影响,所以C项符合语境,可以作为本段的中心句。故选C。
38.【答案】 E
【解析】 根据上文“Research into the...lifted by warm colours.”以及下文“Cool colours like blue and green are comforting and calming.”可知,上文提出本段主题,下文用具体颜色举例,所以E项符合语境,是对上文的具体举例。故选E。
39.【答案】 B
【解析】 根据上文“Doctors often use these colours...with tranquil surroundings.”可知,此处在用蓝色举例,所以B项是蓝色在医院的具体使用方法,是为上文提供的更具体的例子,符合语境。故选B。
40.【答案】 G
【解析】 根据上文“Nutritionists and medical...a rainbow of colours.”以及下文“We should consume fruit...tomatoes and pumpkins.”可知,此处表示我们应该吃各种颜色的食物,G项承上启下,符合语境。故选G。

56.【答案】 a
【解析】 考查冠词。figure意为“人物”,为可数名词,句中用的是其单数形式,前面应用不定冠词修饰,figure以辅音音素开头,应用a。故填a。
57.【答案】 occupied
【解析】 考查动词的时态。根据and可知,occupy和上文的was并列,作本句谓语,应用一般过去时。故填occupied。
58.【答案】 extremely
【解析】 考查副词。设空处修饰空后的形容词uninterested,应用副词。故填extremely。
59.【答案】 and
【解析】 考查连词。根据句意可知,设空处上下文为并列关系,应用and连接。故填and。
60.【答案】 to maintain
【解析】 考查动词不定式。此处是固定搭配,the first sb to do sth意为“第一个做某事的某人”,不定式作后置定语。故填to maintain。
61.【答案】 behind
【解析】 考查副词。此处是固定搭配,leave behind意为“留下”。故填behind。
62.【答案】 whose
【解析】 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,设空处引导定语从句,先行词是principles of painting,设空处在从句中作定语,应用whose引导。故填whose。
63.【答案】 was rooted
【解析】 考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。分析句子结构可知,root作本句谓语,和主语The story of Nymph of the Luo River之间是被动关系;此处描述的是已发生的事,故设空处应用一般过去时的被动语态,且主语为第三人称单数。故填was rooted。
64.【答案】 attraction
【解析】 考查名词。空前是形容词,所以设空处应用名词作介词of的宾语,attractive的名词形式是attraction。故填attraction。
65.【答案】 displaying
【解析】 考查非谓语动词。本句已有谓语动词exhibits,所以display应用非谓语形式;逻辑主语His painting和display之间是主动关系,应用现在分词形式。故填displaying。

阅读下面的材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段话,使之构成一篇完整的
短文。
Nature,while beautiful,could also be unpredictable and merciless.But most importantly we bear in mind that in the darkest times,there’s always a light at the end of the tunnel,just like Mrs Evans’ cabin light.
One bright summer day,my friend Peter and I decided to venture into the unexplored trails of the Great Smoky Mountains.Blessed with rich biodiversity and fascinating landscapes,the national park seemed a perfect getaway.Little did we know that our casual hike would soon turn into an unexpected personal incident,forever engraved in our memories.
We set off early in the morning,equipped with our backpacks and a map that was supposed to guide us through the winding trails.The sun was up,casting long shadows on the forest floor as we set off on our journey.We trekked (艰难行走),laughed,and marveled at the beauty of nature around us.
As we trekked through the dense forests,taking in the natural wonders around us,we couldn’t help but feel a sense of adventure coursing through our veins.The trail was rugged and uneven,but we persevered through the challenging landscape.
Midway through our expedition,we stumbled upon a breathtaking waterfall,its glistening waters cascading down the rocks in a quiet and peaceful melody.We sat down by the water’s edge,taking a moment to get lost in the beauty of nature.The cool mist from the waterfall enveloped us,and we felt refreshed and energetic.
As the day wore on,we ventured deeper into the wilderness,eager to explore every corner of this natural paradise.We were so absorbed in the beauty of nature that just didn’t notice our way and it seemed that we could not find the way back to the familiar part of the forest.Panicking,we scrambled to find our way back but the dense vegetation and winding trails only served to confuse us further.We tried to remember any possible signs that might lead us back.No sooner had we celebrated our return to the clear trails than something worse happened.
注意:续写词数应为150个左右。
Paragraph 1:
Suddenly,the weather took an abrupt turn.
Paragraph 2:
Just when we were about to give up,a faint light flickered in the distance.

　　One possible version:
Suddenly,the weather took an abrupt turn.Dark clouds shrouded the sky,and a heavy downpour ensued. The comforting forest sounds quickly proved a terrifying symphony of thunder and wind.The trail that was once so clear became a muddy mess,making it impossible to go on.We tried to consult our map,but it was too late; we got lost in the wilderness.Hours passing,our attempts to find the trail turned out to be in vain. With the cold creeping in,despair started to set in.
Just when we were about to give up,a faint light flickered in the distance.Curiosity overpowered our fear,and we decided to follow it.When we drew nearer,we saw a small cabin,lights shining from its windows. As we knocked on the door,an elderly woman,Mrs Evans,welcomed us with a warm smile.She was a retired ranger who had chosen to live her twilight years in the heart of the mountains.She offered us shelter for the night,and the next morning,guided us back to the main trail.This incident strengthened our friendship and taught us the importance of resilience and hope.The experience was proved unexpected,terrifying,but consistenly enlightening.
