Passage 1

（高一下·河北张家口·期末）

The whole class were busy preparing for the end-of-year play under the guidance of Miss Tompkins, their enthusiastic drama teacher. The excitement was clear as the students worked hard to perfect every scene and every line. The play was a fantasy tale about a magical key that could unlock a hidden world.

David, who was in charge of the sound effects, took his job seriously. He loved how each sound brought the story to life, making his classmates’ performances even better. He worked hard during rehearsals (排练), paying close attention to the actors and actresses as they spoke their lines, and he repeated them in his head. He also noted the action cutes (提示) carefully in order to make the right sound effect at the perfect moment.

Everything was going smoothly until, just two days before the performance, David came home with bad news. “Grandad, Anthony broke his arm while practicing his bike jump on his way home.”

“Oh, I’m sorry to hear that.”

“He’ll make a full recovery. But by losing Anthony, we now don’t have a main character, the Key-master. Miss Tompkins says we might have to cancel the play. You know, after all that hard work, rehearsals, artwork, lights...”

David and Grandad fell silent, thinking about the situation.

After a few minutes, Grandad broke the silence, “I know —” he said. “Each evening that you’ve come back from rehearsals, you always recite the lines. You must know them all by now. Why don’t you play the Key-master?”

“Because I can’t do it.” “How do you know unless you try? It doesn’t matter how well you do, as everyone will be on your side and cheer you on.” “Yeah. Maybe I should give it a go,” David said.

The next day, David told Miss Tompkins about his idea. “Well, David, that’s fantastic!” Miss Tompkins smiled. “And I will take over sound effect responsibilities.”

As the sun began to set, casting a warm glow over the school’s basketball court, Jack felt a knot in his stomach. It was the day of the annual school basketball tournament（锦标赛）, and he was the team’s new point guard. Despite his talent, he had never played in such a high-pressure situation before. His teammates were counting on him, and the crowd was buzzing with expectation.

As the game started, Jack’s nerves got the better of him. He pass the ball, missed a pass, and his team fell behind early. The crowd’s cheers turned to murmurs of disappointment. Jack’s coach, a strict man with a deep voice, called a timeout. He approached Jack, his face a mix of concern and determination.

“Jack,” he said, “you’ve got the skills, but you need to believe in yourself. This game isn’t just about winning; it’s about getting through your fears. Now, go out there and show them what you’re made of.”

With a deep breath, Jack nodded. He knew he had to change his mindset. As he stepped back onto the court, he felt a flood of determination.

Jack’s eyes scanned the court, his mind clear and focused. He could hear his coach’s words circling in his ears. The game continued, and Jack took control. He dribbled（运球） with confidence, weaving through the opposing team’s defense with ease. His first shot was a perfect arc, swishing（发出沙沙声） through the net with a satisfying sound.

As the game progressed, Jack continued to make strategic plays. He passed the ball to his teammates in the perfect moments, setting them up for easy baskets. His defense was equally impressive, stealing passes and blocking shots. The score began to draw up, and by the final quarter, his team was in the lead.

Passage 3

（高一下·山东德州·期末）

I was sitting in my eighth-grade literature class when Mrs. Smith announced a new project. In groups of four members, we were to create a presentation about the book we were reading.

On a piece of paper, we wrote the names of three friends we wanted in our group. After collecting all the requests, Mrs. Smith informed us that she would take into consideration the names we chose and would let us know the results the next day. I had no doubt I would get the group of my choice. There were only a handful of sociably decent people in the class, and I knew we had chosen each other.

The next day, after the bell rang, Mrs. Smith started to call out names. With butterflies in my stomach, I was expecting the perfect result. Suddenly, I heard my name “Emily” followed by “Mike, Julie and Cathy”. I could feel the tears well up in my eyes. How could I face being in that group. They are not in the circle of my “good” friends. They are always thought as the “misfits” of our class, who are not so smart, look weird and even have difficulties in fitting in with others. Oh, how badly I wanted to be with my friends.

I fought back tears as I walked up to Mrs. Smith. I was determined to convince her I should be in the “good” group. She gently placed a hand on my shoulder. “I know what you want, Emily, ”she said, “Give yourself a chance to see your group members in a new light. Cooperate with each other, and your group shares an equal chance of winning an A．”I was stunned. “Do you have faith in yourself and your group members? ”She asked. I stood straighter. “Yes,” I replied. I couldn’t believe it came out of my mouth, but it did.

Passage 4

（高一下·河北张家口·期末）

“Remember! No skateboarding or leaving the house no matter what!” Dio was unhappy at it upon hearing his parents repeat his punishment. He was so disobedient (不听话) that he had been forced to stay home while his parents went to work. Dio looked through the pages of his book mindlessly.

He would usually ride on his skateboard when he was free but his parents had kept it hidden from him. Dio’s mind was fixed on the skateboard. Just then, an idea came to his mind. He rose from his bed and thought “They must have kept the skateboard somewhere in the attic (阁楼). They have always forbidden me from going up there!” He could not bear the boredom of being at home so he decided to disobey his parents. Dio took a chair and placed it in front of the attic. After numerous attempts, he managed to climb up into it. Taking his phone from his pocket and turning on the flashlight, he searched for the skateboard until he found it. He jumped down, ran back into his room, locked his door, set up a decoy (替身) to take his place and together with his skateboard, jumped over the wall. He rushed out of the house without thinking twice.

Without any safety equipment, Dio was on his way. Dio rode on his skateboard feeling the soft wind kissing his skin. He started skating towards the local park near their house. Dio was on the top of the world. Suddenly, a little kid appeared on his path. Dio knew that he could not stop the skateboard in time to avoid the kid. He was skating at a high speed and drops of sweat formed on his forehead. With his face as pale as a sheet, he knocked on a rock and was sent flying into the air. It all happened so quickly. He prepared for the crash as he closed his eyes.

Passage 5

（高一下·江苏常州·期末）

If there was one thing more than another that Brenda wanted for her birthday, it was a pair of skates. How she hoped her parents would give her a pair!

In vain (徒劳) her mother explained that Brenda might not learn to use them as easily as other children, and that she might fall many times and perhaps hurt herself before she could skate properly. Brenda wanted skates and that was that. She thought about skates all day and dreamed about skates all night. She pictured herself skating to school and home, skating to the stores for Mother, and skating all over the yard.

Her birthday came at last, and with it the precious package which she had been eager for. Before she opened it, she guessed there were skates inside. And there were — beautiful new shiny skates. Just her size, too. Brenda was on cloud nine. She felt she had never been so happy in all her life.

And now it was time to practice with them. Hardly was breakfast over when she was out on the smooth concrete(水泥地).“At last,”she thought,“I am going to skate! Hooray!”

Excitedly she put on her precious pairs of skates and eagerly she stood up. But only for a moment. Suddenly, to her great surprise, away went both her feet from under her. Down she went. Brenda stood up again. But hardly had she put one foot forward, when the other started running backward, and down she went again. This really hurt, and Brenda felt very much like crying. Slowly she got up once more despite the pain and started to walk with great care. But before she knew what was going on, she was sitting on the concrete again. She felt very sad, tears filling her eyes. All her hopes of skating to school and town like the other girls disappeared. She began to wish she had never asked for skates for her birthday. She cried, taking off the skates from her feet and throwing them inside the back door.

Passage 6

（2023-2024高一下·江苏宿迁·期末）

Into the cave

Standing outside the cave entrance, Grandfather admired the green-carpeted hills of Guilin. “Next to heaven,” he said, “Guilin is most beautiful.”

“I would rather be anywhere else in China,” Lin thought.

Lin came here today only because of Grandfather, a stubborn and old-fashioned man, who insisted on using the guano, the waste matter of bats(蝙蝠), to fertilize(施肥) his crops. But he was too weak to do the whole job alone. Grandfather only had the ability to gather the guano and bring it out of the cave in the basket, but he wanted to carry it home in the wooden cart, so he needed Lin a lot.

Lin hadn’t been in the cave since the 2-month-ago terrible day of the bats. On that day, as Lin had walked in the cave, a swarm of black bats had appeared out of nowhere, making him extremely terrified.

Grandfather took a shovel(铁铲) and flashlight(手电筒) from the cart. “Come inside with me?” he asked Lin. “Bats hurt no one,” Grandfather said. But nothing could make Lin forget the horror he had felt in that black cloud of bats.

“I dare not go in there now,” he told Grandfather.

“OK” Grandfather said. As he started into the cave with his own shovel and flashlight, he called over his shoulder to Lin, “I’ll be out in no time.”

Lin parked the cart and glanced at his shovel and flashlight inside it. He had used them back in the days when he always helped Grandfather. Now they only reminded him of his fear.

Time flew by very quickly before he came to know it. Then Lin realized that Grandfather’s “in no time” had turned into a long time. What happened? Something had gone wrong? Did he slip down and get hurt?

Looking into the dark cave, he thought, “I can’t go in there”. Then he imagined Grandfather, hurt and alone.

注意：

Hesitantly, Lin reached for the flashlight and started into the cave.

Recalling Grandfather’s words, “Bats hurt no one.” Lin calmed down.

Passage 7

（高一下·浙江温州·期末）

Jonah pressed his hand into his dad’s old baseball glove as he looked out the window of his stepfather’s car. No one could imagine how much he missed his dad. He breathed in the glove’s warm, leathery smell. The car stopped outside the baseball field.

“Hey, buddy (伙计), have fun at practice. And don’t forget about your sister’s dancing performance tonight,” said Jonah’s stepfather, Steve, as Jonah climbed out. Zoe was not my sister, and you couldn’t tell me what to do, Jonah complained in his mind. Since Mom married Steve a few months ago, Jonah had a lot of mixed-up feelings. He could hardly concentrate. Even baseball 一what he always loved — felt different lately.

After practice, Jonah and David, his best friend, sat together and waited for their ride. Jonah expressed how he wished things hadn’t changed and that he could still be with his own dad, not a stepfather. David comforted Jonah it was no big deal. “I have a stepmother and stepbrother too,” David smiled, “They’re just Mom and Dennis now. Give it a chance.” Jonah let out a breath, still unsure about the performance tonight. Still unsure about everything!

Back at the apartment, Jonah found Zoe in her costume, but something was wrong. Her arms tight across her chest, her eyes were filled with tears. Wondering what was up, Jonah asked Mom, who explained Zoe was just too nervous to go on stage.

Huh! This should have been the best thing that could have happened — the possibility of not going to the performance. But somehow it wasn’t. Zoe had practiced so hard. She’d reminded Jonah at least a thousand times where she would be onstage.

注意：

Having thought twice, Jonah went forward.

Passage 8

（高一下·浙江宁波·期末）

Ever since I was little, my favorite season was winter. I loved to play in the snow and enjoyed the hot chocolate. Unfortunately, winter never gave me the special gift of snow on my birthday. The snow disappeared before my birthday and started after it. The seed of receiving that special gift was deeply planted in my heart.

As I lived with my grandparents in my girlhood, I would always ask my grandmother why it didn’t snow on my birthday. She would laugh and tell me I asked too many questions, and my grandfather would always smile at me affectionately, sitting beside the stove. But one day, my grandmother promised that she would make it snow when I was enjoying life to the fullest. I thanked her and asked for snow on my next birthday, but my mind was occupied with confusion. “How can you make it snow?” My grandmother didn’t reply but shot me a determined look. It seemed that she had already hatched (策划) a plot.

But that year, before my birthday, my grandmother passed away. I was at an emotional loss, but angry because she had promised me to make it snow. The day of my sixth birthday, I woke up and ran to my window, hoping to see just one snowflake. Unfortunately, there was no snow. I cried and cried all day because my grandmother had let me down, but my grandfather said with certainty that my grandmother would keep her word.

Before my birthday every year, I would pray but it never came. By my sixteenth birthday, I had lost all hope of getting my snow, even though I still wished for it. During my party, I had the best time ever! I enjoyed the company of my friends and family, and I was truly happy.

I was outside with a friend when she asked me if I was having a good time. I told her I was enjoying my life to the fullest. Then I saw the white snow falling all around. I became like a little child on Christmas morning as I ran around screaming and laughing. I was so excited that my friend looked at me as if I were crazy, and laughed at me. She asked me if I had ever seen snow before, and I laughed and said that I had, but that this snow was very special to me.

注意：1. 续写词数应为150个左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

Paragraph 1:

Curious about my reply, my friend asked, “Why was this snow so special?”

Passage 1

（高一下·河北邢台·期末）

In a busy city, an old man rode his tricycle(三轮脚踏车) along the street. His face was full of the lines of time. His hands held the handlebars with care. He was returning home from the market, and his tricycle was filled with fresh produce.

When he was wondering how much he could sell the produce for, he got distracted(思想不集中的) and the tricycle hit a car which was parked by the roadside. The old man's heart sank as he surveyed the long scratch(划痕) damaging the new paintwork of the expensive car. He stood there with worry and regret on his face. He knew the value of such a car and the potential cost of the damage. "I can't afford this," he whispered to himself sadly.

Just then, a stranger approached the old man. The stranger, dressed in a sharp suit, looked at the scene and immediately realized the situation. "The paintwork is damaged. Can you afford to pay for the damage?" he asked gently. The old man shook his head and looked down. "No, I can't," he replied.

The stranger looked around and spoke in a low tone. "If you can't afford it, why don't you leave? Do you wait for the owner to come?" It was more of a suggestion than a question. A small smile appeared on the stranger's mouth.

The old man hesitated, torn between his sense of responsibility and the practicality of the stranger's advice. After a moment of internal struggle, he made his decision. He pulled an old plastic bag out of his pocket. He put all the money inside, which was less than twenty dollars, under the wiper(雨刷) of the car. Then, he felt the scratch on the car with his hands. With one last look at the damaged car, he began to push his tricycle away, glancing back every few steps.

Passage 2

（高一下·河北沧州·期末）

I like watching movies. In the movies, kids are always so special. They are usually really smart. Or they are never scared of anything frightening. Or they have magic power and can help those in great trouble out. Why hasn't this ever happened to me? I am not as smart as the kids in the movies. I have never met with anything scary. And I am not powerful enough to help someone out of trouble. But I do hope I can become such a hero as those in the movies. My mother says the heroes in the movies don't exist in real life, adding that being a hero is really good, but I am too young to become one.

It was Monday. Nothing seemed special. It was sunny, with birds singing in the sky. I was walking home from school along the usual street when I noticed an old woman on the other side of the street. She was walking very slowly, sliding her hand along the fence. She looked like a person left behind by the subway; everyone was racing past her. Deep down in my heart, I sensed that something was not right. Out of curiosity, I decided to cross the street.

I squeezed (挤) into the crowd and approached her from the side.

“Are you okay? ”I asked. She made no answer.

“Excuse me,” I said a little louder. “Are you okay?”

“Can you give me your hand, little boy?” asked the woman, looking sad. Without hesitation, I gave her my hand. Then I saw her face lit up. It was then that I realized that she was blind.

“Where are you going?” I asked her.

“To my daughter’s home,” she replied. “It’s her birthday today. I bring her a gift.”

The Fire Truck

Some people give time, some money, some their skills and connections; some literally gave their blood... but everyone has something to give. That’s what Tami learned through her own experience.

After her parents broke up, things at Tami’s house changed. Her mom started working, and Tami became responsible for caring for the house and making meals for herself and her younger sister. Though money was tight, they never went without. They had a nice home in a modest neighborhood, and the girls never wanted for the necessities—food, clothing and shelter. What Tam i missed most of all, though, was family.

Tami spent the summer during her ninth-grade year working at a park to earn extra spending money. Her job was to run the ball shed and organize activities for the kids who spent their summer days at the park.

The kids absolutely liked Tami very much because she was constantly going out of her way to do things for them. She would plan picnics, organize field trips and even buy ice cream for all of them, using her own money.

She got to know one little boy who lived in an apartment across the street from the park. His parents both worked at fast-food restaurants, and she knew that they didn’t have much money. The boy talked about his upcoming birthday and the fire truck he wanted so badly. He said he was going to be a fireman someday and needed the truck to practice. He told Tami more details about the truck than she knew a toy truck could have.

The boy’s birthday came and went. The next day when Tami saw the boy, she expected to see a shiny red truck in his arms. When he arrived empty-handed, she asked about his birthday—did he get his truck? The boy said no, his parents were going to have to wait and get it for him later, when things were better. He seemed a little sad but kept his chin up as best as he could.

注意：

After work that day, Tami cashed her paycheck and headed for the toy store.

On Saturday, Tami walked over to the boy’s house for dinner on invitation.

Passage 4

（高一下·江苏南通·期末）

One day, I read a very sad story about a police dog named Solo that had been sent into a building to catch a suspect (嫌犯). The last thing Solo did before entering the building was to lick his owner’s face. A few minutes later, Solo was shot and killed in the line of duty. I knew how sad that officer must have felt because my own dog, Kela, had recently died.

The article went on to tell about a fundraiser (募捐活动) that was going on to help buy bulletproof vests (防弹背心) for the police dogs there. I thought every police dog should be protected just like the police. I may be a kid, but why can’t I do a fundraiser to help save the dogs in our area?

Then 1 found out that a bulletproof vest for a police dog costs $475. My mom thought it was a lot of money for an eleven-year-old girl to raise, but she told me to go ahead and try anyway.

We called our local Oceanside Police Department and learned that their dogs needed bulletproof vests. At that point, I realized that I needed a name for the fundraiser and thought since I was trying to protect just one dog’s life, I would call my program Vest A Dog.

I decided that vet offices and pet stores would be really good places to go with donation boxes and Vest A Dog fliers (传单). I used little green take-out boxes, decorated with a picture of Tiko, the dog I chose to vest, and me. I wrote on each box “Help protect the life of a police dog by donating a dollar.”

One afternoon, after all the boxes had been placed throughout our community, I got a call from a local newspaper reporter who had seen one of my fliers. The reporter decided to do an article about Vest A Dog. That ought to spread the word, I thought. I asked officer Jim Wall, who is Tiko’s partner, if they would have their picture taken with me for the article and they did.

Passage 5

（高一下·江苏淮安·期末）

Pip, once a poor boy living in the forge with Joe, a blacksmith, was now a London gentleman. Yet, a question — “Who made me a gentleman, Miss Harvisham or somebody else?” — was bothering him. He didn’t find out the answer until one night, an unwelcome visitor came to his house.

That night, Pip was reading alone at the top of his house near the river when he heard footsteps on the stairs. Remembering that the staircase lights were blown out, the gentleman took up his reading-lamp and went out to the stair-head.

“What floor do you want?”

“The top, Mr. Pip.” said a voice from the darkness.

The lamp Pip held over the stairs in terror lit up a man’s face. He didn’t recognize it, but the expression on it showed that the owner was pleased to see Pip. The man was dressed warmly but not elegantly. He had long grey hair and his skin was brown from spending a lot of time outside. Pip guessed he was about sixty.

Taken inside, the man looked around the room and smiled at what he saw. Then he did something strange. He held both of his hands out to Pip. Thinking he might be mad, Pip stepped back, which made the man confused, pushing his hands through his hair.

The man sat down in a chair near the fire. Suddenly Pip knew who he was! The hungry convict in the marshes! The then-convict now looked at Pip with great affection, but Pip could feel none for him.

“You acted nobly to help me, a prison-breaker with an iron ring on a leg sixteen years ago, Pip,” the convict continued, “I have never forgot it!”

Jimmy, who has a good heart, is an automotive mechanic (修理工), but unfortunately, he lost his job a few months ago. He was caught in a dilemma (困境), wanting to find a new job but fearing applying for a new job.

One day, he gathered up all his strength and decided to attend a job interview for a position in a well-known company, whose recruitment (招聘) advertisement said it needed someone who was skilled, but more importantly, kind-hearted. His appointment was at 10 am and it was already 8:30. While waiting for a bus to the office where he was supposed to be interviewed, he saw an elderly man wildly kicking the tyre of his car, wearing a worried expression.

To Jimmy, it was an easy job though it took some time.When Jimmy finished working on the car, the old man asked him how much he should pay for the service. Jimmy said there was no need to pay him; he just helped someone in need, and he had to rush for an interview. Then the old man said, “Well, I could take you to the office for your interview. It’s the least I could do. Please, I insist.” Jimmy agreed. When Jimmy told the old man where he would go, the old man showed a smile and said, “I know the company. By the way, young man, you can call me Anderson.”

Upon arrival, Jimmy found a long line of applicants waiting to be interviewed. Jimmy still had some grease (机油) on him after the car repair, but he did not have much time to wash it off or have a change of shirt. One by one, the applicants left the interviewer’s office with disappointed look on their faces. “With the way I look now, how could I possibly pass this interview?” he thought to himself, feeling his heart sinking.

Passage 7

（高一下·浙江宁波·期末）

There was a time in my life twenty years ago when I was driving a taxi to earn a living. I encountered people whose lives amazed me, made me laugh and made me weep. But none of those lives touched me more than that of a woman I picked up late on a warm August night.

That night, I was called at 2:00 am to pick someone up. When I arrived, the building was completely dark except for one light in a window. In this case, many other drivers would just honk (按喇叭) once or twice, wait a short minute, then drive away.

But I always went to the door to find the passenger. It might, I reasoned, be someone who needed my assistance. I walked to the door and knocked. “Just a minute,” answered a weak and elderly voice. After a long wait, the door opened. A small woman in her 80s stood before me. By her side was a small suitcase.

“Would you carry my bag out to the car?” she said. I took her suitcase and gave her my arm. We walked slowly to the street. She kept thanking me for my kindness.

“It’s nothing,” I told her. “I try to treat my passengers how I want my mother treated.”

“You’re such a good boy,” she said. When we got in the taxi, she gave me an address. Then she asked, “Could you drive through the downtown?”

“It’s not the shortest way,” I answered.

“I don’t mind,” she said. “I’m in no hurry. I’m on my way to a hospice (临终安养院).” I saw her eyes shining with tears.

“I don’t have any family left, she continued. “The doctor says I should go there. He says I don’t have very long.”

I quietly turned off the meter (计程器). “What road do you want me to take?” I asked.

（高一下·安徽阜阳·期末）

I worked at a coffee shop in a very remote (偏僻的) area. I wasn’t pleased with having to work during New Year’s Eve, but about halfway through my shift (轮班), I saw someone who made me feel grateful that I would at least be able to go home to share the dinner with my family.

It was a cold day. The weather was awful with an icy wind and near-freezing rain. Asllooked out of the store window, I saw a young man walking along the road, expecting to get free rides from the passing cars, There was very little traffic, and the few vehicles passing by were driven by people. who were rushing home and couldn’t be bothered to pick up a stranger. Iexpected the young man to come in to warm up or drink a cup, of hot coffee, but he just kept on walking even though he was trembling (颤抖) in the cold.

I thought about how it felt like to be alone and try to hitch a side (免费搭车) in such bad weather on such a special day, and my heart went out to him. Wherever he was going, it was clear that he stood no chance of making it to his destination in time for the dinner.

I was alone, so I couldn’t leave the store to help out. Then I called my parents. I knew that they were busy preparing the big dinner for the whole family. I explained about the young man and asked them if they could help him out. Without any hesitation, they agreed.

After a short while, I saw my parents’ car. It stopped beside the young man and there was a quick exchange of words. The man nodded his head thankfully, and then the car drove off. I saw the look of surprise, disbelief, gratitude, and pleasure that I would never forget appeared on the face of the young man.

（高一下·福建泉州·期末）

At the far end of town sat an old house. Kids in my school considered it scary but this was where I lived with mom and my little brother, Andy.

The outside of the old house might make you think twice about entering. Dropping paint showed black images beneath. Shaky windows hung outside. And long grass surrounded the house.

Dad was away for work and mom rented (租) the house for our previous apartment was too small. She cleaned every room and helped me paint mine into Sea Blue. But the outside remained unchanged because mom got no time and our house owner, who agreed to help, broke his legs recently.

The following days, I always avoided inviting classmates to my house. Then Granny came. Andy wouldn’t be in kindergarten until next year, so having Granny watch him while mom worked would save expense. She usually sat at the kitchen table, helping Andy with his numbers while the smell of newly-made bread filled the house.

I kept my secret safe until one day a classmate pointed me out. I felt my face grow hot. With more students gathering, I could not bear it, saying, “Yes, we moved. But the house will look better once we have it painted!”

When I got home, I ran outside and found a ladder and a mower (梯子和割草机). I moved the mower around but soon got tired. “What’s wrong?” Granny asked. I told her what happened with tears.

Granny shook her head. “They will make fun of everything. This is a fine house and you all have worked hard to make it nice.”

The next day at school, a boy named Juan stopped me. He said his friend David and he were starting a paint business. They were wondering if I would allow them to paint our house. “It is actually a nice house with good bones.” he said.

After school, I told Granny that offer. Granny said it would be fine and she could offer them delicious pizza as rewards.

Passage 10

（高一下·山东聊城·期末）

It’s the first time for Kiley and I to do something for Tag Day(募捐日). We were not sure if we could really raise money by going up to some strangers' houses and asking to make a donation. We sat down on the blue carpeted floor of the band room where everyone was waiting for their name to be called to see which group they were in. Kiley and I looked at each other nervously.

Luckily, Mrs Rupert, our orchestra(管弦乐队) teacher, called both of our names and some other girls’ names to bunch us together. Our group stepped out of the band room with an adult who would drive us around the neighborhood. But as another adult handed us sweaters to wear for the day, I didn't want to do that anymore.

“Ewww... it’s so ugly!” Kiley commented. “It's huge! Even a dinosaur could fit into this.” Indeed, it was a misty gray color with oversized sleeves and a small logo at the top corner for our Robinson Marching Band.

Even so, we forced ourselves into those ugly sweaters and went out to the car. At least we weren’t the only ones that looked funny. All of us in the band had to wear our uniforms which looked really uncomfortable.

“OK, girls, here is the neighborhood. You guys will start here and...” I wasn’t paying any attention to what the driver was saying and I could tell Kiley was either. We were just looking out to the houses soon we would have to knock on. Butterflies were flying around in my stomach and I wished that they would be gone. Kiley and I got out of the car and took one side of the neighborhood while the other girls took the other. As Kiley and I approached our first house, we were quickly rehearsing(排练) our speech before we knocked.

“OK, you say this and I say that,” Kiley said.

“Do you want to start?” I asked. But I could tell Kiley wanted me to start.

I was nervous enough already and Kiley had to literally push me to the doorstep. As my hand reached out, I put a big smile on my face hoping that they would make a donation.

（高一下·山东东营·期末）

He Made Me an Angel (天使)

When I was in seventh grade, I was a candy striper (医院志愿者) at a local hospital in my town. I volunteered about thirty to forty hours a week during the summer. Most of the time I spent there was with Mr. Gillespie. He never had any visitors, and nobody seemed to care about his condition.

I spent many days there holding his hand and talking to him, helping with anything that needed to be done. He became a close friend of mine, even though he responded with only an occasional squeeze (捏) of my hand. Mr. Gillespie was in a coma (昏迷).

I left for a week to vacation with my parents, and when I came back, Mr. Gillespie was gone. I didn’t have the courage to ask any of the nurses where he was, for fear they might tell me he had died. So with many questions unanswered, I continued to volunteer there through my eighth-grade year.

Several years later, when I was a junior in high school, I was at the gas station when I noticed a familiar face. When I realized who it was, my eyes were filled with tears. He was alive! I got up the courage to ask him if his name was Mr. Gillespie, and if he had been in a coma about five years ago. With an uncertain look on his face, he replied yes. I explained how I knew him, and that I had spent many hours talking with him in the hospital. His eyes welled up with tears, and he gave me the warmest hug I had ever received.

（高一下·山东枣庄·期末）

The 13-year-old schoolgirl, Laura, picked up a purse on her road back home. She looked inside: 300 pounds! She thought of the pink bike that she had always wanted, but her parents couldn’t afford, Laura looked around. No one seemed to have seen her with the purse. She put it into her school bag and ran home quickly.

When she got home, she put the purse in her treasure box. But there was still one problem: How could she tell her parents about it? Then Laura remembered the prize of the writing contest was 300 pounds. She would tell her parents that she had won the prize. In fact, the contest would start in two weeks. She wanted to take part, but lacked confidence.

The next day, Laura rushed home after school. She was just about to tell her mother the news when her mother said, “I have enough money left over this week for a treat. I’ve bought some strawberries. You can have one!”

Laura paused, and quickly lost in thought. What would happen if her mother lost her purse and someone else kept it? They might not have any food for weeks! Laura ran to her room. She took the purse and handed it to her mother.

“I found this,” she said. “It has 300 pounds in it.”

“Wow!” said her mother, “300 pounds!”

She looked inside the purse and found a photo of a woman. It was Mrs. Jones, a writing teacher in college. “It could be Mrs. Jones’,” she said, “We’ll have to take it to her right away.”

（高一下·山东济南·期末）

Ten-year-old Sam Evans was a die-hard football fan, and he’d been saving for months to buy his favorite football kit. However, when he reached the store, he discovered that the kit’s price had risen, and the cost was now a few more dollars than what he’d managed to save.

Disappointed, Sam almost burst into tears, but just then, he heard a voice from behind, He turned and saw Mr, Barney, his neighbor, holding a shopping bag. “Well, you don't seem okay, young man. Tell me if there’s anything l cab do to help you.” Mr. Barney asked. Sam wiped his tears and approached him, explaining that he had saved money for a football kit, “But when I came today, l saw it was a few dollars more than what I have.” Sam cried.

Mr, Barney, with a warm smile, patted Sam on the head and generously offered to cover the extra cost. However, Sam quickly refused the offer. He explained that his mother was always concerned about him spending too much time playing football and had refused to buy him a new kit. She had also told him never to borrow money from anyone, stressing the

importance of depending on himself.

Mr. Barney was amused by Sam's honesty. “Well, then how about paying me back right now?” Mr. Barney suggested. “Now?” Sam was puzzled. Mr. Barney explained, “Yes, promise me that you'll pay forward this kindness. That means if you see someone in need, and you have the money, you’ll help them without hesitation, Deal?” “Done, Mr. Barney,” Sam answered joyfully and they went to pay for his football kit.

Passage 14

（高一下·湖南怀化·期末）

As the saying says, something big can grow from small beginning. A caring 17-year-old girl, Lauren Schroeder, was inspired to help bring healthy food to needy families in her community. The story began three years ago and it greatly influenced her family and community members.

Coming from a farming family, Lauren Schroeder had some familiarity with agriculture, and had helped raise rabbits and lambs, but had never tried planting vegetables at scale, though the Schroeder s planted soybeans and corn each year on their 150-acre farm.

Lauren Schroeder was volunteering at a community food bank at the age of 14. As she filled bags with donated groceries, she felt something was missing: fresh vegetables. Though there was plenty of food coming in can sandboxes, she didn’t see anything fresh and healthy to give to families in need. She thought it would be great to change that. She came up with a plan to grow and donate homegrown produce.

Inspired to make a change, this kindhearted teen then told her parents that she wanted to start a garden on part of their family farm in Dixon, Lowa, in order to supply local families in need with fresh produce including lettuce, carrots, tomatoes and so on, so that people could get the nutrition they needed. Although proud of their daughter’s vision, and keen to support her project, the parents kindly reminded her that her plan was no walk in the park and made her aware of how much work it would take. Still the teenager was up for the challenge. Finally, her parents decided to let Lauren have a try and suggested she start from planting half an acre of land for the first year.

Passage 15

（高一下·广东揭阳·期末）

It was a busy morning and I had several work to do before the day became too hot to be outside the house. As I was walking by the side of a busy road, I saw an old lady, maybe in her 80s standing dangerously close to the traffic. Although my mind was occupied, I thought to myself that I should warn her not to stand so close to the chaotic traffic rushing by.

When I reached the spot where the old lady was standing, I noticed that she was trying to get attention of passers-by who of course were too busy to take note of her. She kept pointing to the middle of the road. When I tried to gently move her back further away from the edge of the busy road, she said that she was standing there because she had dropped her house key in the middle of the road and was unable to open her house without the key. I looked around and no one seemed to be interested in the two of us.

The traffic was busy on the road with commuters on two-wheelers and office goers in cars as well as school buses rushing with school children. It was the worst time of the day to cross a busy road without a traffic light.

Passage 1

（高一下·江苏连云港·期末）

The Secret of Flowers

Sumiko worked with her mother in their vegetable garden every day. The produce from their garden was sold at the farmer’s market. This is how they made their living. Sumiko’s job was to make sure the daikon radish (白萝卜) plants were never too dry. Each day Sumiko would push her finger into the soil to test for moisture (水分), and then carefully water any plant that needed it. Sumiko often imagined the plants she tended were beautiful chrysanthemums (菊花), like Mrs. Higaki’s prize flowers.

Sumiko envied (羡慕) Mrs. Higaki. If she could sell flowers like Mrs. Higaki, she would be able to buy things for her mother. But chrysanthemums were expensive to start, and Sumiko could only dream about growing them.

One day, Sumiko visited Mrs. Higaki to see her flowers. Mrs. Higaki was checking her chrysanthemums when she arrived. The garden of flowers springing up excited Sumiko.

“I wish I could grow beautiful chrysanthemums and win a prize at the festival like you.”

“You?” Mrs. Higaki laughed. “Child, do you know what’s required to grow such flowers? The secret to growing prize chrysanthemums has been passed down to me from past generations of my family. And you?” She chuckled (轻声笑). “Stick to vegetables, child. Leave flowers to those who know the secret of flowers.”

Mrs. Higaki returned to her gardening, ignoring the sad look on Sumiko’s face. Then she pulled up what looked like a weed (杂草).

“What’s that?” Sumiko asked.

“A shabby (破烂的) plant. Unworthy of my time — too weak to trouble,” Mrs. Higaki said before throwing the shabby plant into the field beside the garden.

Sumiko smiled. She had an idea. She politely said goodbye to Mrs. Higaki and went out the garden gate, quickly picking up the shabby plant before rushing home.

Passage 2

（高一下·江西上饶·期末）

Betty was my best friend. My mom didn’t like her, but to me, she was a dog with a personality. At seventeen, I fell in love with the tiny, curly-haired dog. Betty was smart, too. I taught her tricks. She would sit by my feet and when I put a stick or a piece of carrot by her mouth, I’d say “eat” and she would stand and obey. She loved going for walks with my friend and me. She danced around us as if listening to our conversations about school and clothes and movies we’d seen.

Sometimes, I sat with her in the front yard, letting her explore the soft grass. I’d tell her about my friends, the movies I liked and the tests I was about to take. Betty would sit and stare at me as if listening to everything I told her.

Then my uncle, my mother’s younger brother, came to live with us. He and his wife slept in my room and I slept on the couch. My mom didn’t want Betty’s curly fur all over the living room, so she slept in the utility room (杂物间). Instead of being beside my bed as usual, she was out of my aunt and uncle’s way. I hated their presence and kept Betty outside with me as much as possible.

But one afternoon, I went to get her from the back yard and she wasn’t there. The back gate was partly open. Had Betty been searching for me? “Sorry,” my uncle said. “I guess when I went through the gate to check something in my car, I forgot to close it completely.”

Passage 3

（高一下·山东滨州·期末）

When I was ten, I was shy. Almost everyone made me nervous. I was also a good kid, following rules and rarely questioning authority. But then one day, one single ride on a school bus changed all that.

It was raining hard that day and the school bus was crowded. Most of the kids were engaged in conversation. I sat alone as usual, speaking to no one. Over and over, I carefully wiped the window to see the rain outside. The rushing water was filling the street, overflowing the curbs and drains (排水管).

The bus stopped, waiting for an accident to clear. I spotted a kitty struggling in what seemed to be a surging river across the street. His body had already been sucked (吸入) into the dark opening of a storm drain, his little front paws seizing the bars tightly. He swallowed water and breathed hard as he fought the current (水流) with all of his strength.

My heart was racing, tears rolling down my cheeks. I wanted to rush off the bus to save the poor cat. But I knew that the bus driver, Mrs. Foster, would never allow me off the bus. It was against the rules to even stand up.

The bus began to move forward. But the cat’s eyes locked on to mine. He was begging for help. The weight of hopelessness blanketed down around me. Somehow I managed to stand up.

“Mrs. Foster!” I cried. Every person on the bus stopped talking and looked at me.

“There’s a cat in the drain,” I stammered. “If we don’t help him, he’ll die.” I held out a shaking hand and pointed.

Mrs. Foster, to my amazement, did not yell at me. Nor did the other kids laugh at me. Instead, she pulled the bus to the side of the busy road. “Children,” she said strictly. “No one is to leave this bus.”

Then Mrs. Foster rushed out into the traffic and rain.

Passage 4

（高一下·河南新乡·期末）

Jake and Jullie were celebrating their 10th wedding anniversary (周年纪念日). They decided to make this particular one special. Instead of their usual dinner dates and overseas vacations, the two decided to take this particular anniversary to the next level. For this vacation, they decided to take a trip back to where they first met.

The hike was filled with memories. The two went to many of the spots they had visited on their first trip. It wasn’t until they started looking through the pictures to see which they would keep that something in the background of one of those photographs caught their eyes. There was something in the distance in the picture. It was too small to make out in detail, but it was definitely there.

Jullie wanted to find out whatever that was, so they returned to the spot. Jake had been sure that they wouldn’t find anything there, but the moment he entered the spot, he knew he’d been wrong. Just a few feet away from him and Jullie lay the whitest dog he’d ever seen in his life. Something must have been wrong with it, he thought.

That night, Jake and Jullie found themselves in their accommodation with a new roommate. Throughout the night, the dog hid in a corner. Something was definitely wrong with the dog. Its movements were slow, and no matter what they tried, it didn’t seem to respond.

The next day, Jullie suggested they take the dog to a vet (兽医) and Jake agreed. On getting to the vet’s, they were in for another surprise. The vet hadn’t even examined the creature for one minute before he turned to them with an amused look on his face. “Didn’t you say you found a dog?” he asked. “Yes,” Jake replied. “Well, I’d love to see the dog, but what you’ve found in the woods is not a dog. It’s actually a fox.”

Passage 5

（高一下·河南南阳·期末）

It was a cold and rainy October day in 2003, when the animal shelter where I worked received an elderly, weak, blind, almost hairless dog. We did not hold out much hope that the dog we named Tabby would find a home, but we all tried our best to help her anyway.

Despite her various challenges, Tabby had a great attitude. She bravely overcame difficulties, recovering from any missteps quickly. The one concern we had for her successfully being placed into a home was that she was easily frightened, particularly when asleep, which even caused her to bite people. Tabby would require a special home in many ways, one that did not include children who might be accidentally injured.

The days turned into weeks and then into months and Tabby settled into a comfortable routine. She seemed to like everyone she met, but she regarded a couple of our staff as her own special friends. Her ability to know when one of them arrived at the shelter was really remarkable.

When winter began to turn into spring and not a single person had asked about adopting (收养) Tabby, we were sure she would live out her days with us. She was happy and our staff loved her. Her life at the shelter was good, even though we normally hoped for a home for every animal.

The promise of spring began to turn into the long days of summer when a mom named Loretta came to the shelter with her three children, including her son, Andrew, a young boy who suffered from seizures (癫痫). It was this boy who had noticed Tabby on the shelter website. What drew him to her was the note on her introduction explaining that she had special needs. As a special needs child, he demanded that they pay Tabby a visit.

It was obvious that the family hardly seemed to be fit for Tabby.

Passage 6

（高一下·湖南永州·期末）

The Secret to Planting Flowers

Sumiko and her mother worked daily in their vegetable garden to earn a living. Sumiko’s job was to ensure the vegetables were never too dry. Each day Sumiko carefully watered them. She often pretended the vegetables she tended were beautiful chrysanthemums (菊花), like Mrs. Higaki’s prize flowers, the poor village’s only profitable flowers.

Mrs. Higaki, the village’s famous flower grower, was the only one who profited from selling flowers. Every year she won first prize at the Kyoto Chrysanthemum Festival. Sumiko admired Mrs. Higaki. If she could sell flowers like Mrs. Higaki, she would be able to use her earnings to support her family. But Sumiko knew she couldn’t afford to start growing chrysanthemums herself.

One day, Sumiko visited Mrs. Higaki’s garden, expressing her desire to compete in the Kyoto Chrysanthemum Festival. Mrs. Higak i laughed off Sumiko’s dreams, claiming the secret to growing prize chrysanthemums was exclusive (独有的) to her family.

However, when Mrs. Higaki threw away a withered (干枯的) plant, Sumiko saw an opportunity. She quickly bent over and retrieved (取回) the dried-up plant before rushing home. Then she created her own secret garden behind their cottage.

Sumiko planted the withered flower carefully exactly as Mrs. Higaki did, ensuring the top of the root ball was even with the soil’s surface. She bent close to the drooping (下垂的) leaves and whispered, “Grow, little flower, grow. Someday, you will bloom prettier than any flower at the festival.” She tended her plant every morning before breakfast and every evening while her mother prepared supper. Time spent with the little plant made Sumiko’s long days’ tending vegetables bearable. Her mother was pleased with how hard she worked.

As the Kyoto Chrysanthemum Festival neared, Sumiko’s plant towered over five feet tall, dwarfing (使显得矮小) Mrs. Higaki’s grandest flowers. It was not just tall, but the most beautiful rainbow chrysanthemum Sumiko had ever seen. She screamed with delight. Sumiko’s mother came running. Its beauty took her breath away. And Mrs. Higaki, who was passing by, pushing her cart filled with flowers for the festival, came to see what the excitement was, too. Mrs. Higaki’s mouth dropped open at the sight of the brilliant rainbow chrysanthemums.

Passage 7

（高一下·江苏泰州·期末）

Mary and her parents were downstairs in the living room. Mary was looking through the windows at the endless rain outside. It had been raining non-stop for three days. She had never seen a storm this bad. It was making her nervous. The wind roared and the rain beat on the roof and windows. Dad was listening to a weather report on the radio, while Mum was putting their important documents and disaster supplies into a bag.

“Mum, Dad,” said Mary suddenly, “I think we should leave here right away!” “No,” said Dad. “It’s too late! The radio says the city has already been flooded.” “We can drive our car through the floodwater! Let’s just leave! I’m really scared!” cried Mary.

“We can’t do that, honey,” explained Mum, “otherwise the moving water could wash the car away!”

Mary walked to the door. She was curious to see how much water there was outside. “Don’t open the door!” shouted Mum and Dad at the same time. “The water may flood in!”

Dad moved the dinner table against the door, in case the floodwater forced the door open. Mum waved to Mary to sit on the sofa. “Mary, don’t worry. Everything’s going to be OK,” she said softly, trying her best to comfort Mary. Her voice was calm, but Mary could tell she was worried too.

Without saying a single word, Dad walked to the sofa, sat down and hugged his wife and daughter. The sudden silence in the house seemed to make the wind and rain more frightening outside. What could they do?

All of a sudden, the dinner table moved and the door was forced open. Water poured in. Mary burst out crying. “Upstairs!” Dad ordered. They rushed to the second floor, only to find the whole neighborhood had been surrounded by water.
