5 . 读后续写

When I look back on my childhood, the first image that springs to my mind is the daisy (雏菊) kept in my dictionary, which always reminds me of my lunchtimes with my mother.

When I was in the third grade, I was picked to be the princess in the school play, and for weeks my mother had practised my lines (台词) so hard with me. But no matter how easily I delivered them at home, as soon as I stepped onstage, every word disappeared from my head. Finally, my teacher took me aside. She explained that she had written a narrator’s (旁白) part to the play, and asked me to switch roles.

I didn’t tell my mother what had happened when I went home for lunch that day. But she sensed my pain, and instead of suggesting we practice my lines, she asked if I wanted to walk in the yard.

It was a lovely spring day and the rose vine (藤蔓) was turning green. Under the huge trees, we could see yellow daisies popping through the grass in bunches, as if a painter had touched our landscape with a little bit of gold. I watched my mother casually bend down by one of the daisies. “I think I’m going to dig up all these weeds,” she said, suddenly pulling a flower up by its roots. “From now on, we’ll have only roses in this garden.”

“But I like daisies,” I protested (抗议). “All flowers are beautiful——even daisies.” My mother looked at me seriously. “Yes, every flower has its own beauty, doesn’t it?” she asked thoughtfully. I nodded, feeling pleased that I had won her over. “And that is true of people too,” she added, “Not everyone can be a princess. Hence, there is no shame in that.”

Relieved that she had sensed my pain, I started to cry when I told her what had happened. She listened and smiled.

6 . 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。

Poetry combines sound and sense, which implies a deeper meaning beyond the words on the page. Readers find it challenging to reveal the     1     (hide) dimensions. Here are some useful     2     (strategy) on how to better understand and appreciate poems.

Firstly, follow your ears. You     3     (advice) to ask “How does it sound?” instead of “What does it mean?” Read it aloud     4     you will feel how the poem sounds. Secondly, approach the poem as if you were an explorer in an unfamiliar landscape. Ask some basic questions to see concrete images in your mind. Then make     5     most of the surroundings to dig up clues to give you a greater understanding of the poem. Thirdly, if you are struggling     6     (interpret) the meaning of a poem with much painstaking effort, just stay patient. Sometimes it takes a lifelong time to understand a poem     7     (thorough). Poems that constantly reveal deeper and previously unrecognized meanings are more interesting     8     those that are easy to understand. Finally, it is     9     (necessary) to fully understand the poem to appreciate it. Sometimes, to find a poem’s inner beauty, you might need to abandon logical thinking.

Poetry’s combination of “sound” and “sense”     10     (allow) you to enjoy your journey in the world of poetry.

8 . 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。

A few years ago, the company that I worked for sent my wife and me to live in New York for a year. I’ve always loved running, so I was really happy when I found I lived next to Central Park. This meant that every morning I could go running before I went to work.

Because a lot of people had told me to be careful of robbers (抢劫犯) in the park, so usually I didn’t take anything with me. How could they rob me if I didn’t have anything? But one morning, my wife gave me 10 dollars and asked me to buy some bread on the way. It was a beautiful morning and the park was quiet with few people walking or jogging around. While I was running through the park, another jogger knocked into (撞到) me. He said sorry to me and continued running. For a while, I didn’t think too much of it.

However, when I noticed the wide path where I was running, I thought it was a little strange. The warning of robbers in the park hit me. “It could have been a robber!” I suddenly became anxious, so I checked my pocket and found that the money was missing. Without thinking twice, I ran after that jogger. I finally caught up and held him by the arm. I shouted, “Give me the 10 dollars! Now!” I am not usually a hot-headed (性急的) person, but I got really angry this time. I couldn’t believe the robbery was actually happening to me.

Filled with anger, I shook my fist (拳头) at him. This seemed to frighten him. He quickly put his hand in his pocket and gave me 10 dollars. Then he ran away as fast as he could. I bought the bread and went home.

As soon as I got home, I couldn’t wait to tell my wife the story. “You won’t believe what happened to me,” I said with pride. She immediately stopped me, “I know, you left the money for the bread on the kitchen table.”

Looking at the money on the table, I stood there, shocked.

But I didn’t give up finding him and for several days, I waited at the same place in the park.
