【原文】M: Clara Barton was born on December 25th, 1821. When the Civil War began in 1861, she heard of stories of wounded soldiers. She felt she needed to do something to help them, so she urged people to donate bandages and medicine and delivered these supplies to the battlefield. Clara didn’t stop helping when the war was over. She led a group to search for missing soldiers. This group also worked to identify soldiers killed or missing. After four years of this work, Clara moved to Switzerland, where she first learned about a group called the Red Cross. This group worked to help people who were suffering during times of war. In 1873 Clara returned to the United States. In 1881 she started an American branch of the Red Cross. She served as its first president for over 20 years. As the result of Clara’s hard work and leadership, the Red Cross grew. Today, it also helps people suffering as a result of earthquakes, fires, floods, and other disasters. Clara Barton died on April 12, 1912, but her great contribution, the American Red Cross, lives on.
第二部分 阅读理解 （共两节，满分50分）
第一节（共15小题; 每小题2.5分，满分37.5分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的四个选项（A 、B 、C 和 D ）中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。
A
Home fires can happen quickly, destroying lives and property, but unlike other disasters, most home fires can be prevented. Read on to learn 4 unexpected home fire dangers.
Having old smoke alarms
An effective smoke alarm can make much difference when it comes to surviving a house fire. It’s not enough to change the batteries twice a year, you also need to replace your alarms every decade. “You should test your smoke alarms every month,” says Lorraine Carli, vice president of the National Fire Protection Association. “But also don’t forget to check the dates and replace an alarm that is more than 10 years old.”
Leaving the kitchen while you cook
One in five Americans admitted leaving food cooking unattended on the stove, found an American Red Cross survey. Walking away from food cooking in the kitchen is a serious fire risk. “The leading cause of home fires is cooking and the leading cause of those fires is unattended cooking,” says Carli.“If you need to use the stove or oven, be sure to keep an eye on it.”
Turning the heat too high when you cook
Turning up the heat too high can be deadly, even if you’re in the kitchen while you cook. Kevin Kelley, senior director of the American Red Cross, recommends paying close attention and turning off the burner if you see smoke or grease (油脂) starting to boil while frying food.
Having a dirty stove while you cook
If your stove is covered with grease, a small kitchen fire can get out of hand quickly. Clean and clear the area around the stove before turning on the heat, or the result will be dangerous.
21. How long should you have a new smoke alarm?
A. 2 years. B. 10 years. C. 12 years. D. 8 years.
22. What is the leading cause of fires from kitchen?
A. Clearing a dirty stove. B. Turning off the burner .
C. Replacing an alarm. D. Unattended cooking.
23. Which of the following is NOT true?
A. Unexpected home fire dangers can be prevented.
B. It is advisable to change the batteries twice a year.
C. Kevin Kelley suggests paying close attention to fried food.
D. Having a dirty stove is dangerous while you cook.
【答案】21. B 22. D 23. C
【解析】
本文为说明文。文章列举了生活中容易忽略的一些火灾隐患，并提出了避免火灾发生的措施。
【21题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“It’s not enough to change the batteries twice a year, you also need to replace your alarms every decade.(一年换两次电池是不够的，你还需要每十年更换一次报警器)”可知，除了一年换两次电池，需要每十年更换一次烟雾报警器。即，烟雾报警器应该10年换一个新的。故选B项。
【22题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段第三句“Walking away from food cooking in the kitchen is a serious fire risk. “The leading cause of home fires is cooking and the leading cause of those fires is unattended cooking,” says Carli (离开厨房烹饪食物是一种严重的火灾风险。卡利说：“家庭火灾的主要原因是烹饪，而这些火灾的主要原因是无人值守的烹饪”)”可知，厨房火灾的主要原因是烹饪食物是离开厨房，厨房无人值守。故选D项。
【23题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段第二句“American Red Cross, recommends paying close attention and turning off the burner if you see smoke or grease starting to boil while frying food.(美国红十字会的高级主任凯文·凯利建议，如果你在煎炸食物时看到烟雾或油脂（石油）开始沸腾，就要密切注意并关闭燃烧器)”可知，凯文建议，你在煎炸食物时，要密切关注的是燃烧器的情况，而不是关注煎炸食物。因此。C项“Kevin Kelley suggests paying close attention to fried food (凯文凯利建议密切关注油炸食品)”不符合题意。故选C项。
B
Do you need a human to create a beautiful scent (气味)? That’s the question being asked as artificial intelligence (AI) starts to enter the perfume(香水) industry.
Companies are increasingly turning to technology in order to create more bestselling, unique fragrances that can be produced in just minutes. Last year, Swiss-based fragrance developer Givaudan Fragrances launched Carto, an artificial intelligence-powered tool to help perfumers(调香师). Through machine learning (a way computers improve outcomes automatically by learning from past results) Carto can suggest combinations of ingredients.
Using a touch screen, the perfumer can pull together different scents using data from the brand’s vast library of fragrance formulas (配方) — a much more efficient process than using traditional forms. A small robot immediately processes the fragrances into perfumes, making it easier for perfumers to test their new scents.
German fragrance house Symrise has gone one step further and teamed up with IBM Research to create an AI called Philyra. Like Carto, Philyra can’t actually sniff anything. But it is not designed to replace perfumers.
“It’s machine-learning and sometimes the results have been wrong,” says Claire Viola, vice president of digital strategy fragrance at Symrise. “It’s still a project, the more we test, the more it continues to improve. It constantly needs training.”
24. What is Carto according to the passage?
A. a bestselling unique fragrance. B. a Swiss-based fragrance developer.
C. an AI-powered tool. D. combinations of ingredients.
25. What’s the main idea of para. 3?
A. The process of making fragrance. B. Two ways of making fragrance.
C. The importance of a small robot. D. The popularity of a small robot.
26. What can we infer from Claire Viola’s opinion on Philyra?
A. It will replace perfumers in the near future.
B. It’s the most effective technology to produce perfume.
C. The results will be perfect when using it.
D. We should train and improve it, because it’s machine-learning.
27. In which section of the newspaper can you probably read this passage?
A. Lifestyle B. Entertainment
C. Advertisement D. Science & technology
【答案】24. C 25. A 26. D 27. D
【解析】

【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段第二句“Last year, Swiss-based fragrance developer Givaudan Fragrances launched Carto, an artificial intelligence-powered tool to help perfumers(调香师). (去年瑞士香水开发商奇华顿推出了一款人工智能工具Carto来帮助调香师。)”Carto后的同位语an artificial intelligence-powered tool可知，它是一个人工智能驱动的工具。故选C。

(通过触屏，调香师可以从该品牌庞大的香水配方库中提取数据，将不同的香味组合在一起——一个比使用电子表格更高效的过程。一个小型机器人能立即将香味加工成香水，使调香师更容易测试他们的新气味。)”可知，本段主要关于制做香水的过程。故选A。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“It’s still a project, the more we test, the more it continues to improve. It constantly needs training.(这仍然是一个项目，我们测试的越多，它就越能继续改进。它需要不断的训练。)”可知，Claire Viola认为这是一种学习机器，计算结果有时有误；该技术需要不断测试并改进。据此可以推知，由于这是一种学习机器，故我们应当不断培训改进，故选D。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据全文内容可知，该篇阅读介绍了利用人工智能制造香水这一技术，关于最新科技，属于科技发展范围。故选D。

Dancing with your grandma for 15 minutes a week promotes positive feelings and improves her state of mind, a study claims. Doctors from Israel are encouraging younger family members to have a regular visit to their grandmas and have a dance with their grandmas.
And they found a 15 minute boogie (布吉舞) once a week lifted the spirits of the elder family members and helped strengthen the familial bond. In fact, it is called Dance Movement Therapy (DMT). DMT across the generations, complete with eye contact, was found to promote positive feelings and improve spirits for the elderly.
The grandparents reported a bright state of mind, happy memories and uplifted spirits. Dancing has also previously been linked to improved muscle strength, balance and endurance (耐力). For the grandchildren in the study, the weekly boogie changed how they view aging and allowed them to come to accept the eventual death of their elderly relatives.
The study, published in the journal Frontiers in Psychology, assessed how dance affected general health of 16 dance movement therapists (治疗师) and their grandmothers. DMT was taken seriously due to the fact that it is easily accessible and does not cost more to practice. The researchers were eager to examine a low-cost method to treat issues commonly faced by an aging population— such as limited mobility and depression(抑郁症). Grandchildren were instructed to make eye contact and encourage playfulness and touch. They were also told to mirror their grandmothers’ movements and give them time and space to rest when needed.
The sessions were recorded and then analysed while diaries and interviews captured the opinions and feelings of the participants. As well as the benefits to the health of the senior, the experiment also changed the idea of the younger family members.
28. What should the young people do when dancing with their grandmas?
A. Follow the grandmas’ steps.
B. Look at the grandmas’ eyes.
C. Move the bodies as long as possible.
D. Talk with their grandmas in gentle voice.
29. What can we infer from the third paragraph?
A. Dancing brings the young happy memories and uplifted spirits.
B. Dancing enables the senior to accept aging and death of their old relatives.
C. Dancing benefits both the senior and the young in the new study.
D. Dancing is linked to improved muscle strength and balance in the new study.
30. Which of the following is the best advantage of DMT?
A. Inexpensive. B. Relaxing.
C. Attractive. D. Pleasant.
31. What is the best title for the text?
A. What does DMT Mean?
B. Dancing: a Good Way to Stop Being Senior.
C. Why Don’t You Dance 15 Minutes Every Week?
D. Dancing with Grandparents is Good for Health and Family Ties.
【答案】28. B 29. C 30. A 31. D
【解析】
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了促进老年人的积极情绪，改善心情的舞蹈运动疗法。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“In fact, it is called Dance Movement Therapy (DMT). DMT across the generations, complete with eye contact, was found to promote positive feelings and improve spirits for the elderly.(事实上，它被称为舞蹈运动疗法。研究发现，舞蹈运动疗法通过跨代人的眼神交流，可以促进老年人的积极情感和精神状态)”可知，通过眼神交流，跨代人的舞蹈治疗能够促进老年人的积极情绪，改善心情。因此，年轻人和奶奶跳舞应该：B 项“Look at the grandmas’ eyes.(看奶奶的眼睛)”符合题意。故选B项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“The grandparents reported a bright state of mind, happy memories and uplifted spirits…For the grandchildren in the study, the weekly boogie changed how they view aging and allowed them to come to accept the eventual death of their elderly relatives.(祖父母的精神状态很好，回忆愉快，精神振奋……对于研究中的孙辈们来说，每周的布吉改变了他们对衰老的看法，让他们接受了最终亲人的死亡)”可知，每周的布吉舞给老人带来好的精神状态和美好回忆，而对于参与研究的孙辈来说，每周一次的布吉舞改变了他们对衰老的看法，让他们能够接受年长亲人的最终死亡，可见，跳舞对老年人和年轻人都有好处。因此，C项“Dancing benefits both the senior and the young in the new study.(在新的研究中，跳舞对老年人和年轻人都有好处)”符合题意。故选C项。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段第二句“DMT was taken seriously due to the fact that it is easily accessible and does not cost more to practice.(舞蹈运动疗法之所以受到重视，是因为它很容易获得，而且实践成本不高)”可知，舞蹈运动疗法因其操作简便、成本不高而受到重视。因此，舞蹈运动疗法的最佳优势是A项目“Inexpensive.(便宜)”符合题意。故选A项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是本文最后一句“As well as the benefits to the health of the senior, the experiment also changed the idea of the younger family members.(除了有益于老年人的健康外，这项实验也改变了年轻家庭成员的观念)”可知，本文主要介绍了一种有效的关心祖父母的方法舞蹈治疗，这种方法有助于双方的健康，同时加深了家庭的纽带。因此，本文的最佳标题是D项“Dancing with Grandparents is Good for Health and Family Ties.(和祖父母跳舞对健康和家庭关系有好处)符合题意。故选D项。
D
After weeks of lockdown, the French are more eager than ever to get away from the breathless cities. But the busy traffic will also serve as a reminder of another annual summer trend here. The French have the unfortunate distinction of being the European champions(冠军) for abandoning pets that have become too cumbersome for their summer trips. Animal shelters up and down the country are evidence of this unique and sad tradition.
Betty Loizeau has run a shelter just north of Toulouse for more than 20 years. “Owners call up to say where their pets can be found, or drop them off in boxes outside the shelter under the cover of darkness. The excuses they typically give are that they’re going on holiday, having a baby, moving house, or they have a new partner with allergies, .......”
For shelters like this one, it is the busiest time of the year. Between 100,000 and 200,000 pets are abandoned in France each year, with 60% of these incidents occurring over the summer. The figure is close to 16.000 in the UK.
“Pets are increasingly seen as an impulsive(冲动的) buy,” says Marina Chailland, a vet(兽医) who has studied the social relationship between the French and their pets.
“A certain breed(品种) of cat or dog is fashionable and owners want one, just like a new smartphone,” she says. “Of course, when it goes out of fashion they desert it for an upgrade a couple of years later, when a new breed is considered fashionable.” She also points to the issue of pets being given as gifts as a reason why so many are abandoned. “Often parents will get pets for their children and when they grow up and lose interest in them, out goes the pet.”
Over the summer, owners discover that hotels charge extra for animals or even ban them completely. This explains why you will often see frightened, lost, dogs wandering near freeway service stations or beach resorts.
32. What does the underlined the word “cumbersome” in para. 1 refer to?
A. Disturbing. B. Enjoyable.
C. Boring. D. Impressive.
33. Which of the following is true according to the passage?
A. In fact, the French don’t like pets at all.
B. There are various excuses for people abandoning pets.
C. Between 100,000 and 200,000 pets are abandoned in the UK each year.
D. Pets are admitted into the hotel for free in summer.
34. When is the busiest time for a pet shelter in France?
A. In spring. B. In summer.
C. In fall. D. In winter.
35 Why does the author mention the smartphone in paragraph 5?
A. To explain why the French abandon the pets.
B. To explain how the French like a smartphone.
C. To explain why the French dislike pets.
D. To explain how costly a smartphone is in France.
【答案】32. A 33. B 34. B 35. A
【解析】
本文是一篇说明文。经过几周的封锁法国人比以往任何时候都更渴望逃离这个令人窒息的城市。但繁忙的交通也会提醒人们这里每年夏天的另一个趋势。法国因抛弃宠物而荣登欧洲冠军，举国上下的动物收容所就证明了这个独特而悲伤的传统。
【32题详解】
词义猜测题。根据文章第一段划线词前句“The French have the unfortunate distinction of being the European champions(冠军) for abandoning pets (不幸的是，法国是欧洲抛弃宠物最多的国家)”和后句“Animal shelters up and down the country are evidence of this unique and sad tradition.(全国各地的动物收容所就是这种独特而悲哀传统的证据。)”可知，法国因抛弃宠物而荣登欧洲冠军，因为宠物对他们的夏季旅行来说太麻烦了。所以cumbersome 为“麻烦的”之意。故选A。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段最后一句“The excuses they typically give are that they’re going on holiday, having a baby, moving house, or they have a new partner with allergies, .......(他们给出的借口通常是要去度假、生孩子、搬家，或者新伴侣有过敏症……)”可知，法国人遗弃宠物给出的借口是各种各样的。故选B。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。文章第一段说宠物被遗弃是因为它们成了夏天外出旅行的法国人的“cumbersome”，举国上下的宠物避难所就是证据；第三段For shelters like this one, it is the busiest time of the year. ......with 60% of these incidents occurring over the summer. 60％的抛弃宠物事件发生在夏季；最后一段又说夏天法国酒店额外收取宠物费甚至禁止携带宠物入住。综上细节可知，夏季是宠物避难所最繁忙的季节。故选B。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“A certain breed(品种) of cat or dog is fashionable and owners want one, just like a new smartphone,” she says. “Of course, when it goes out of fashion they desert it for an upgrade a couple of years later, when a new breed is considered fashionable.”可知，饲养宠物就如人们对待新款手机一样，当一款手机过时的时候，人们就会换新款的手机，作者以手机作为类比，来说明法国人遗弃宠物的一个原因。故选A。

Sandstrom, a senior lecturer in psychology, found that people with larger networks of weak ties tended to be happier in general, and that on days when a participant had a greater number of casual interactions(互动) with weak ties — a neighbour, a member of yoga class — they experienced more happiness.
When do weak-tie interactions happen?

根据上文“Until then scholars had agreed that a person’s happiness depended mainly on the quality of relationships with close friends and family.(在此之前，学者们一致认为，一个人的幸福主要取决于与亲密朋友和家人的关系质量)”以及下一句“You should know those about the “weak ties”.( 你应该知道这几点关于“弱纽带关系”)”可知，学者们一直认为，一个人的幸福感主要取决于他与亲密朋友和家人的关系质量，下文提到你应该知道关于弱纽带关系的这几点，据此可判断，该空处起到承上启下作用，说明除了强关系之外，人们拓展的弱纽带关系的“数量”也很重要。因此，A项“Mark showed that quantity matters, too(马克指出，数量也很重要)”切题，且选项中的“quantity”与上文中的“quality”相呼应。故选A项。
【37题详解】
根据下文“Someone people knew may bring more opportunities.Mark studied 282 Boston-based workers and found that most of them got their jobs through someone they knew.(认识的人可能会带来更多的机会。马克研究了282名波士顿员工，发现他们中的大多数都是通过认识的人找到工作的)”可知，结合上文解释两个类别“强纽带关系”和“弱纽带关系”，此处又提到认识的人可能给自己带来更多的工作机会，而根据作者对两个关系的解释，这些受到帮助找到工作的人与帮助他们的人之间，大多数是属于“弱纽带关系”。据此可判断，该空处起到承上启下作用，强调“弱纽带关系”比“强纽带关系”更重要。因此，G项“He stressed weak ties are more important to us than strong ones(他强调，对我们来说，弱关系比强关系更重要)”切题，且选项中的“more opportunities”与上文中的“more important”相呼应。故选G项。
【38题详解】
根据上文“Someone people knew may bring more opportunities.Mark studied 282 Boston-based workers and found that most of them got their jobs through someone they knew.(马克研究了282名波士顿员工，发现他们中的大多数都是通过认识的人找到工作的)”以及下一句“84% got their job through those weak-tie relationships.(84%的人是通过这种弱关系才找到工作的)”可知，马克调查了282名波土顿工作人员，发现他们中大多数都是通过认识的人找到工作的，下一句说84％的人是通过弱纽带关系得到工作的。据此可推知，该空起到与下文形成鲜明对比的作用，意在阐述“只有少数人是通过好朋友得到工作的”。因此，F选项“But only a minority got the job through a close friend(但只有少数人是通过密友得到工作的)”切题，该选项中的“only a minority”与“84%”相呼应。故选F项。
【39题详解】
设空处是本段小标题。根据下文“Sandstrom, a senior lecturer in psychology, found that people with larger networks of weak ties tended to be happier in general, and that on days when a participant had a greater number of casual interactions with weak ties — a neighbour, a member of yoga class — they experienced more happiness.(心理学高级讲师桑德斯特罗姆（Sandstrom）发现，一般而言，拥有更大的弱关系网络的人往往更快乐，当参与者与弱关系（邻居、瑜伽班成员）有更多的随意互动时，他们会体验到更多的幸福感)”可知，心理学高级讲师桑德斯特伦发现，有更大的弱纽带关系网的人总体上更加幸福，并且当人们和关系较弱的人有较多的随意互动时（例如邻居，瑜伽班成员）他们感受的幸福感更多。据此推知，该段主要阐述关于弱纽带关系能带来的幸福感。因此，D项“People get happiness from weak-tie relationships(人们从脆弱的关系中获得幸福)”符合文意。选项中的“happiness”与下文中的“happiness”相呼应。故选D项。
【40题详解】
根据下一句“particularly when we’re taking part in an activity of some kind, like singing or cycling.(尤其是当我们参加某种活动，如唱歌或骑自行车时)”可知，当我们外出参加某种活动时弱关系更容易发生，例如唱歌或骑自行车。因此，该空阐述弱纽带关系的互动通常发生在我们外出参加社会性活动的时候。因此，C选项“Weak-tie interactions happen when we are out(当我们出去的时候会发生弱纽带关系)”切题。且选项中的“when we are out”与下文中的“like singing or cycling”相呼应。故选C项。

考查动词词义辨析。句意：Owoseni 3年前创办了这所芭蕾舞学校。A. attended出席；B. founded建立，创办；C. finished完成；D. discovered发现。因原来没有这所学校，所以由Owoseni创办这所学校（the ballet school），符合句意。故选B项。

【52题详解】
考查名词词义辨析。句意：刚开始他在自己家里上课，后来当地一位女商人给他免费提供了一个上课的场所，现在他每周都在那儿上课。A. opportunity机会；B. space空间，空地；C. guidance指导；D. holiday假期。根据前文“Owoseni started teaching at his home”，可知，Owoseni的学校起初并没有场所。分析句子可知“where he now holds weekly lessons”是where引导的定语从句，先行词应为地点名词，所以用space合乎逻辑，符合句意。 故选B项

第二节（共10小题；每小题1.5分，满分15分）
阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词）或括号内单词的正确形式。
A Chinese university has built the world’s longest 3d-printed bridge. The creation has a ___56___ (long) of 26.3 meters and a width of 2.6 meters. Its design came from the historical Zhaozhou Bridge ___57___ (build) in A.D. 605.

【解析】
这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了我国用3D打印技术成功制造出的世界最长的桥。
【56题详解】
考查名词。句意：这幅作品长26.3米，宽2.6米。空格前有不定冠词a，所以应填名词，long的名词形式为length。故填length。
【57题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：它的设计来源于建于公元605年的历史悠久的赵州桥。空格前为名词Zhaozhou Bridge，与build之间为被动关系，build的过去分词built作后置定语，修饰Zhaozhou Bridge。故填built。
【58题详解】
考查让步状语从句。句意：尽管古老的赵州桥需要十年的时间来建造，但是本团队只花了450个小时就完成了所有的新桥梁的混凝土部分。根据句子前半部分的a decade，后半部分only 450 hours的反差，可知上下文为让步关系。故填While或Although或Though。
【59题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意同上。短语spend time (in) doing为因定搭配，意为“花费时间做……”。故填completing。
【60题详解】
考查代词。句意：此外，这座桥的造价只有一座普通桥的三分之二。根据句意可知，空格处代指上文的“(the) cost”，且有后置修饰语“of an ordinary bridge”，指代前面提到的名词，用代词that。故填that。
【61题详解】
考查介词。句意：这座桥由44个独立3d打印混凝土单元组成，每个单元大约3×3×5英尺。consist of固定搭配，意为“由……组成”，故填of。
【62题详解】
考查被动语态。句意：受赵州大桥的影响，桥面由68块混凝土板组成，由机械臂移动到位。该句谓语动词make和主语The sides“桥的侧边”为被动关系，应用被动语态，且讲述的是过去的事情，应用一般过去时.故填were made。
【63题详解】
考查副词。句意：团队的领导指出，未来“建筑项目对劳动力的需求将日益短缺”。分析句子可知，空格处应为句子的修饰成分，修饰表示状态的介词短语，应用increasing的副词形式。故填increasingly。
【64题详解】
考查动词时态。句意：如果中国找不到人来架桥，“智能建设将成为解决这一问题的重要渠道”。跟据前一句的一般将来时和时间状语in the future，可判断本句主句应用一般将来时。在条件状语从句中，从句用一般现在时的时候，主句应用一般将来时。故填will become。
【65题详解】
考查形容词比较级。句意：在过去的几年里，随着3d打印技术变得比以前更流行，已经有了其他的3d打印建筑项目。空格后出现了表示比较的介词than，应使用形容词比较级，popular为多音节形容词。故填more popular。

A few years ago, I was taking up a part-time summer job at a local ice cream shop. While handing an ice cream to an old woman at the drive-through window, I noticed that she had a box of what appeared to be purple tomatoes. (If you’ve ever had a drive-through job, you know that it’s hard not to look into someone’s car when you are near from his or her face. ) That’s when I felt the desire coming on. I felt that I was eager to explore what they exactly were. But I just didn’t know how to start my exploration. Would she refuse my curiosity directly or just keep silent, even with a look of disgust?
After a struggle in my heart, I decided to encourage myself to grasp the last minute. As I handed her the ice cream, I said, ”Those tomatoes look delicious! What kind are they?”
She smiled and I thought she was about to start laughing, but instead she replied, “Here, have some! ” Within seconds I had a handful of splendid purple tomatoes. “Oh, no, you don’t need to give me any!” I said. Those tomatoes looked expensive. “ Here, have more,” she insisted, and now I had six of the fattest, prettiest tomatoes I had ever seen. I weakly tried to protest:“Really, you didn’t have to give me any, but I appreciate it.”
The woman smiled again and said, “I hope you enjoy them. And to answer your question, It’s an heirloom breed(传家宝品种) that my Mom used to plant. So they aren’t like the ones you get in the grocery store.”
I thanked her again, and she sped off. She was like an adult version of the tooth fairy: I gave her ice cream and she gave me tomatoes.

About two weeks later, a box of vegetables was dropped off in my office.

Paragraph 2
I decided to accept her invitation to visit her vegetable garden.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
About two weeks later, a box of vegetables was dropped off in my office. A note was attached to the box, and it read: “To my friend, here are more delicious and healthy purple tomatoes. If you will, please come to visit my vegetable garden. You will like it.” What was totally beyond my expectation was that she went on giving me so many purple tomatoes, only as a result of my casual appreciation and desire. I shared the purple tomatoes and the moving story with my office colleagues, who also appreciated the gifts, encouraging me to accept her invitation.
Paragraph 2:
I decided to accept her invitation to visit her vegetable garden. What’s more, I desired to thank her face to face and make close friends with her in the coming days. I picked up my phone and called the telephone number on the note. After about half an hour’s drive, I came to the vegetable garden, where various vegetables ranging from tomatoes to cucumbers and green beans were planted. Seeing the garden in the soft sunshine, I felt that I had come to a natural green homeland, relaxed and delighted. “Thank you for your gifts. I am really glad to come here. ” I said to my friend. She smiled: “Thank you! I am very glad that you like them.” It was a casual greeting and kindness that brought us the precious friendship. What a surprise!
