Last term, our school held its first drama festival. All classes prepared a short play, and my classmates chose me to play the leading role. At first, I felt extremely worried because I had never performed on stage before. I was afraid I would forget my lines or move nervously in front of the audience.
My drama teacher encouraged me not to give up. She told me that even professional actors feel nervous, and that courage comes from practice. I recited lines whenever I was free, practiced in front of my family, and recorded myself to improve my expressions and gestures.
On the night of the show, I waited backstage with my hands shaking. When the curtain opened, I took a deep breath and stepped forward. Soon I forgot my nervousness and focused completely on the role. The audience laughed at the funny lines and applauded warmly.
After the show, many people praised my performance. That night made me realize that nothing is impossible if you keep trying. This experience taught me the importance of perseverance and gave me much more confidence.

Traveling without a map in different countries, I find out about different ways of directions every time I ask “How can I get to the post office ”
Foreign tourists are often puzzled in Japan because most streets there don’ t have name signs. In Japan, people use landmarks (地标) in their directions instead of street names. For example, the Japanese will say to travelers, “Go straight down to the corner. Turn left at the big hotel and go past a fruit market. The post office is across from the bus stop.”
People in Los Angeles, the US, have no idea of distance on the map: they measure distance by time, not miles. “How far away is the post office ” you ask. “Oh,” they answer, “it’s about five minutes from here.” You don’t understand completely, “Yes, but how many miles away is it, please ” To this question you won’t get an answer, because most probably they don’t know it themselves.
People in Greece sometimes do not even try to give directions because tourists seldom understand the Greek language. Instead, a Greek will often say, “Follow me.” Then he’ll lead you through the streets of the city to the post office.
Sometimes a person doesn’t know the answer to your question. What happens in the situation A New Yorker might say, “Sorry, I have no idea.” But in Yucatan, Mexico, no one answers “I don’t know.” People there believe that “I don’t” is impolite. They usually give an answer, but often a wrong one. So a tourist can get lost very easily in Yucatan! However, one thing will help you everywhere in the world. It’s body language.
8. Which of the following is probably an example of Japanese directions
A．“The post office is at Street Kamira.”
B．“Turn right at the hospital and go past a school.”
C．“The post office is about five minutes from here.”
D．“Go south two miles. Turn west and then go another mile.”
9. Why don’t people in Los Angeles give directions in miles
A．They prefer to lead you the way.
B．They prefer to use body language.
C．They often have no idea of distance measured by miles.
D．They use landmarks in their directions instead of distance.
10. How do Greeks give directions
A．Using street names.
B．Using landmarks.
C．Leading people the way.
D．Giving people a wrong direction.
11. What will probably be talked about next Paragraph
A．The importance of a map.
B．The situation in London.
C．Different languages in Japan.
D．The use of body language.

Recent headlines have raised concerns about microplastics in our bodies and the harm they may be doing. “The air we breathe, the water we drink, the food we eat — it’s in it,” said Richard Thompson, a marine biologist at the University of Plymouth.
Microplastics mostly come from larger plastics, which degrade (降解) with use or when they aren’t disposed of properly. These microplastics end up in our air, soil, water and food. The wear and tear on our car tires, for example, produces particles that pollute the air and water. Humans breathe in these particles — and harmful chemicals within them.
Microplastics have been found in human stool (粪便) and urine. Some studies have suggested that the plastic not excreted in waste appears to pass out of the gut and into the blood, and from there can migrate to other organs like the liver and brain. Animal studies indicate that microplastics can also affect lung and gut functioning and may increase the risk for lung and colon cancer.
One of the most effective steps might simply be not drinking from plastic water bottles, especially if they’ve been sitting out in the sun. Another is to avoid heating food in plastic containers. Experts recommended switching to glass or steel containers for food storage. Eating more fresh fruits and vegetables can help, too. Regularly vacuuming your house and using an air purifier can reduce the amount of microplastics.
These measures have limitations, however. Plastic is widespread and often the most affordable option. “It shouldn’t all be on the consumer to have to make those choices,” said Christy Tyler, a professor of environmental science at the Rochester Institute of Technology.
Experts, including Tyler, said governments would have to regulate and reduce nonessential plastics to stop that accumulation. Some already have. The United States and Europe banned the use of microbeads (微珠) in makeup, for example, and several U.S. states are phasing out Styrofoam in food packaging. And 175 countries have agreed to create a United Nations treaty to end plastic pollution. Compared to 20 years ago, Dr. Thompson said, there’s now “a public appetite” for change.
12. What can we learn about microplastics
A．They produce particles into the air.
B．They are from food and drinks.
C．They can be degraded properly.
D．They may cause health problems.
13. Which of the following best explains “excreted” underlined in paragraph 3
A．added
B．released
C．created
D．controlled
14. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A．Approaches to keeping healthy.
B．Effective steps for heating food.
C．Measures for using plastic device.
D．Ways of avoiding microplastics.
15. What can be inferred from Christy Tyler’s words
A．Consumers are blamed for spreading plastics.
B．Governments should fine people for using plastics.
C．Governments are responsible for reducing plastics.
D．Consumers need to pay attention to plastic pollution.

Going Up
I was afraid of heights. I became anxious when I climbed stairs with gaps between them. It felt as if I would fall through the spaces. Then, the fear spread to any set of staircases where I could see up or down more than one floor.
My fear didn’t stop there. When hiking, I had to stay as far as possible from the edges of hills. In tall buildings, just going near the windows made my stomach drop. My fear of heights greatly limited my life.
One night, I read something by Dale Carnegie that struck me hard: “Do the thing you fear to do and keep on doing it ... that is the quickest and surest way ever yet discovered to conquer (克服) a fear.” I thought about it for days. Finally, I decided: I had to face it. I signed up for a beginner’s outdoor rock climbing course.
The preparation wasn’t easy. I started jogging to build up my strength. I did strength training three times a week. The more I worked out, the more confident I became — at least physically. Mentally, I still wasn’t sure. During training, I learned how to use climbing gear and practiced hard. The instructors kept telling us, “Trust the gear. It’s stronger than you think.” Still, I wasn’t sure I could trust myself.
Then came the day of the actual climb. Standing at the base of the cliff (峭壁), I looked up. The wall seemed endless. I wanted to quit. My heart pounded. My hands were sweating. But something inside whispered, “Just go one step at a time.”
As I began climbing, I made a rule for myself: don’t look down. I focused on the rock, one handhold at a time, one foothold at a time. But the higher I went, the harder it became to breathe. I could hear my own heartbeat in my ears. Halfway up, panic hit. My legs shook. “I can’t go up,” I shouted.
Below, my instructor called out, “You can. You’re safe. Look how far you’ve come.”
注意：（1）续写词数应为150个左右；
（2）请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
I took a deep breath and forced myself to go up.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Finally, I reached the top.

Dear Principal,
I’m writing to draw your attention to the serious waste of electricity in our school. Many classrooms and dormitories leave lights and air conditioners on all day when no one is inside.
I have two practical suggestions. First, we can set student volunteers to check unused rooms and turn off electric equipment regularly. Second, teachers can give short lectures on energy-saving knowledge to raise students’ awareness.
I hope the school can take action soon to save electricity and develop our good habits.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
五、读后续写参考范文
I took a deep breath and forced myself to go up. I wiped my sweaty palms on my clothes and fixed my eyes on the rock holds ahead instead of the ground far below. The instructor’s encouraging words echoed in my mind. Step by step, I moved my hands and feet slowly. Whenever fear came over me, I stopped for a second to calm myself and kept moving forward little by little. Gradually, the panic faded away and I focused all my attention on the climbing road in front of me.
Finally, I reached the top. I stood straight and looked down at the whole valley. The beautiful scenery took my breath away. All my fear of heights disappeared completely. I realized that fear only held me back before. As long as I dared to face what I was afraid of and kept trying bravely, I would overcome any difficulty in life. This climbing experience left me a precious lifelong lesson.
