四、任务型阅读
阅读短文，然后根据内容回答问题。
On the first day of Grade 8, our new English teacher, Mr Lemke, walked into the classroom. He was in his thirties but looked like a wise professor. He told us we would be learning 400 lines of poetry by heart over the school year. “I might ask any of you, at any time, to stand up and recite one of those lines,” he said.
But we weren’t just asked to memorize the poems. Mr Lemke taught us to appreciate (欣赏) each poem with all our senses. He invited us to listen to its rhythm, feel its mood and discover its message hidden in the words. Only after all that, did we learn it by heart. One of our first poems was To Autumn by John Keats. It celebrated the season of “mists and mellow fruitfulness (雾气弥漫，瓜果飘香)”.
Of course, we complained about having to memorize all those poems that year. I’d lock myself in my bedroom and go over a poem line by line until I could recite it by heart.
Somehow, I made it through Grade 8. When I entered high school, I still felt restless. But that fall, when the leaves started to turn their brilliant colours, I found myself whispering the lines, “Season of mists and mellow fruitfulness…”
It took me years to realize the gift Mr Lemke had given me. He showed me how to treasure poetry, and in doing so, he made poetry part of who I am.

________________________________________________________________
42. Who wrote the poem To Autumn

43. What did the writer whisper when the leaves started to turn their brilliant colours

五、书面表达范文
Dear David,
I’m so glad to receive your letter and help you prepare for the culture sharing activity. I’d like to introduce paper-cutting to your classmates.
It’s a long-standing Chinese traditional skill. We cut red paper into cute shapes like flowers, animals and Chinese characters by sharp scissors. People stick them on windows during festivals for good wishes. It’s easy to learn but needs patience.
Wish your culture sharing activity a great success! All your classmates will love this amazing Chinese art.
Li Hui
