B
Oliver, the CTO of a high-tech company, loved to participate in all conversations at the C-suite level, regardless of topic. He was often the first to raise his hand for a project, appeared to have infinite capacity to get high-quality work done, and offered to assist his peers and direct reports. Oliver seemed to be all-in; optimistic, energetic, supportive, and someone who constituted to everyone.
However, the more Oliver participated, the more others around him were slighted. Instead of sparking creatively in others, his ideas outshone everyone else’s. He consumed time speaking in meetings, exhausting the oxygen level in the room. Oliver felt pumped up by how many of his ideas had been deployed but frustrated by others’ lack of sufficient effort.
While the CEO appreciated Oliver’s yield, she recognized he had to change his approach to keep the rest of the team productive. In response, Oliver worked out a plan to help address his cooperation challenges using techniques many other executives had deployed.
When we over-participate, we believe that we're being helpful. However, “helpfulness” is defined by the recipient, not the giver. Instead of improving his relationships with colleagues, Oliver robbed them of fulfillment by furnishing masses of ideas. They felt discouraged, interrupted, and excluded. To fix the issue, Oliver learned the value of asking two specific questions before offering his own ideas: “What have you thought of?” and “What would be most helpful for you at this point?” Surveying others to understand what’s helpful illuminates better avenues for our contribution: directly through our ideas, through coaching colleagues to create their own, or by building on what someone else has generated.
4. What can we learn about Oliver?
A. He lacks creativity. B. He favours competition.
C. He works enthusiastically. D. He behaves irresponsibly.
5. What is a result of Oliver’s over-participation?
A. The team generated more diverse ideas.
B. Oliver’s colleagues became less productive.
C. Group meetings were more time-consuming.
D. Oliver’s teammates were inspired to work harder.
6. What technique did Oliver employ to fix the issue?
A. Hearing others’ voices. B. Providing specific ideas.
C. Strengthening his leadership. D. Building strong relationships.
7. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. When Leaders Fail to Keep the Team Productive
B. When Contributing Gets in the Way of Cooperating
C. How a Great Team Welcomes Ideas in a Discussion
D. How Active Participation Gives Rise to a Better Team
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. A 7. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了Oliver工作很热情,但是他的过度参与反而降低了团队的工作效率,他参与得越多,他周围的人就越受冷落。于是Oliver通过倾听他人的声音,来指导同事创造他们自己的想法,从而提高团队工作效率。
【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“Oliver, the CTO of a high-tech company, loved to participate in all conversations at the C-suite level, regardless of topic. He was often the first to raise his hand for a project, appeared to have infinite capacity to get high-quality work done, and offered to assist his peers and direct reports. Oliver seemed to be all-in; optimistic, energetic, supportive, and someone who constituted to everyone.(Oliver是一家高科技公司的首席技术官,他喜欢参与所有的高层对话,无论是什么话题。他常常是第一个为一个项目举手的人,似乎有无限的能力完成高质量的工作,并主动提出帮助他的同事和直接下属。Oliver似乎全力以赴;乐观、精力充沛、乐于助人,是每个人的楷模)”可推知,Oliver工作很热情。故选C。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“However, the more Oliver participated, the more others around him were slighted. Instead of sparking creatively in others, his ideas outshone everyone else’s. He consumed time speaking in meetings, exhausting the oxygen level in the room. Oliver felt pumped up by how many of his ideas had been deployed but frustrated by others’ lack of sufficient effort. (然而,Oliver参与得越多,他周围的人就越受冷落。他的想法没有激发别人的创造力,反而比别人的更有创意。他花时间在会议上发言,耗尽了房间里的氧气水平。Oliver对自己的许多想法被采纳感到鼓舞,但对其他人的努力不足感到沮丧)”可知,Oliver参与得越多,其他同事就越沮丧、不受重视、无法激发创造力,Oliver过度参与的结果是同事们的工作效率降低了。故选B。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“To fix the issue, Oliver learned the value of asking two specific questions before offering his own ideas: “What have you thought of?” and “What would be most helpful for you at this point?” Surveying others to understand what's helpful illuminates better avenues for our contribution: directly through our ideas, through coaching colleagues to create their own, or by building on what someone else has generated.(为了解决这个问题,Oliver学会了在提出自己的想法之前问两个具体问题的价值:“你有什么想法?”以及“此时什么对你最有帮助?”通过调查他人来了解什么是有帮助的,可以为我们的贡献指明更好的途径:直接通过我们的想法,通过指导同事创造他们自己的想法,或者在其他人的想法的基础上继续发展)”可知,Oliver通过问其他同事问题,来倾听他人的声音来解决这个问题。故选A。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“When we over-participate, we believe that we're being helpful. However, “helpfulness” is defined by the recipient, not the giver. Instead of improving his relationships with colleagues, Oliver robbed them of fulfillment by furnishing masses of ideas. They felt discouraged, interrupted, and excluded.

(当我们过度参与时,我们认为自己是在帮助别人。然而,“帮助”是由接受者定义的,而不是给予者。Oliver非但没有改善与同事的关系,反而提出了大量的想法,剥夺了他们的成就感。他们感到沮丧、被打断、被排斥。为了解决这个问题,Oliver学会了在提出自己的想法之前问两个具体问题的价值:“你有什么想法?”以及“此时什么对你最有帮助?”通过调查他人来了解什么是有帮助的,可以为我们的贡献指明更好的途径:直接通过我们的想法,通过指导同事创造他们自己的想法,或者在其他人的想法的基础上继续发展)”结合文章主要讲述了Oliver工作很热情,但是他的过度参与(对团队的贡献)反而降低了团队的工作效率,他参与得越多,他周围的人就越受冷落,不利于合作。于是Oliver通过倾听他人的声音,来指导同事创造他们自己的想法,从而提高团队工作效率。可知,B选项“当贡献妨碍合作时”最符合文章标题。故选B。
C
Both misinformation, which includes honest mistakes, and disinformation, which involves an intention to mislead, have had a growing impact on teenage students over the past 20 years. One tool that schools can use to deal with this problem is called media literacy education. The idea is to teach teenage students how to evaluate and think critically about the messages they receive. Yet there is profound disagreement about what to teach.
Some approaches teach students to distinguish the quality of the information in part by learning how responsible journalism works. Yet some scholars argue that these methods overstate journalism and do little to cultivate critical thinking skills. Other approaches teach students methods for evaluating the credibility of news and information sources, in part by determining the incentive of those sources. They teach students to ask: What encouraged them to create it and why? But even if these approaches teach students specific skills well, some experts argue that determining credibility of the news is just the first step. Once students figure out if it’s true or false, what is the other assessment and the other analysis they need to do?
Worse still, some approaches to media literacy education not only don’t work but might actually backfire by increasing students’ skepticism about the way the media work. Students may begin to read all kinds of immoral motives into everything. It is good to educate students to challenge their assumptions, but it’s very easy for students to go from healthy critical thinking to unhealthy skepticism and the idea that everyone is lying all the time.
To avoid these potential problems, broad approaches that help students develop mindsets in which they become comfortable with uncertainty are in need. According to educational psychologist William Perry of Harvard University, students go through various stages of learning. First, children are black-and-white thinkers—they think there are right answers and wrong answers. Then they develop into relativists, realizing that knowledge can be contextual. This stage is the one where people can come to believe there is no truth. With media literacy education, the aim is to get students to the next level—that place where they can start to see and appreciate the fact that the world is messy, and that’s okay. They have these fundamental approaches to gathering knowledge that they can accept, but they still value uncertainty.
Schools still have a long way to go before they get there, though. Many more studies will be needed for researchers to reach a comprehensive understanding of what works and what doesn’t over the long term. “Education scholars need to take an ambitious step forward,” says Howard Schneider, director of the Center for News Literacy at Stony Brook University.
8. As for media literacy education, what is the author’s major concern?
A. How to achieve its goal. B. How to measure its progress.
C. How to avoid its side effects. D. How to promote its importance.
9. What does the underlined word “incentive” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Importance. B. Variety. C. Motivation. D. Benefit.
10. The author mentions stages of learning in Paragraph 4 mainly to________.
A. compare different types of thinking
B. evaluate students’ mind development
C. explain a theory of educational psychology
D. stress the need to raise students’ thinking levels
11. Which would be the best title for this passage?
A. Media Literacy Education: Much Still Remains
B. Media Literacy Education: Schools Are to Blame
C. Media Literacy Education: A Way to Identify False Information
D. Media Literacy Education: A Tool for Testing Critical Thinking
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章就如何实现媒体素养教育目标,作者提出了不同的方法来帮助学生形成心态,让他们能够适应不确定性,但是在实现这一目标之前还有很长的路要走。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。由第一段中的“One tool that schools can use to deal with this problem is called media literacy education. The idea is to teach teenage students how to evaluate and think critically about the messages they receive. (学校可以用来解决这个问题的一个工具是媒体素养教育。这个想法是教青少年学生如何评估和批判性地思考他们收到的信息)”可知,关于媒体素养教育,作者最关心的是如何实现媒体素养教育的目标,即教青少年学生如何评估和批判性地思考他们收到的信息。故选A项。
9题详解】
词句猜测题。由第二段的“Other approaches teach students methods for evaluating the credibility of news and information sources, in part by determining the incentive of those sources. They teach students to ask: What encouraged them to create it and why? (其他方法教学生评估新闻和信息来源可信度的方法,部分是通过确定这些来源的incentive。他们教学生问:是什么鼓励他们创造它,为什么?)”可知,通过鼓励学生询问是什么、为什么新闻和信息被创造出来来评估其来源可信度,这是从他人创造新闻和信息来源的动机入手,incentive在此处意为“动机(Motivation)”。故选C项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。由第四段中的“According to educational psychologist William Perry of Harvard University, students go through various stages of learning. First, children are black-and-white thinkers—they think there are right answers and wrong answers. Then they develop into relativists, realizing that knowledge can be contextual. This stage is the one where people can come to believe there is no truth. With media literacy education, the aim is to get students to the next level—that place where they can start to see and appreciate the fact that the world is messy, and that’s okay. (哈佛大学的教育心理学家威廉·佩里认为,学生会经历不同的学习阶段。首先,孩子们是非黑即白的思考者,他们认为有正确的答案和错误的答案。然后他们发展成为相对主义者,意识到知识可以是背景知识。在这个阶段,人们可以开始相信没有真相。通过媒体素养教育,目的是让学生们进入下一个层次,在那里他们可以开始看到并欣赏世界是混乱的,这很好)”可知,学生的思维水平是有层次的:非黑即白层次和相对主义者层次,所以他们会经历不同的学习阶段,每个学习阶段看问题的方式、角度和深度都不一样,而媒体素养教育是为了让学生们进入下一个层次,以提高学生思维水平,可得出第四段提到学习阶段主要是为了强调提高学生思维水平的必要性。故选D项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。由第一段中的“Both misinformation, which includes honest mistakes, and disinformation, which involves an intention to mislead, have had a growing impact on teenage students over the past 20 years. One tool that schools can use to deal with this problem is called media literacy education. (在过去的20年里,包括无心之失和虚假信息在内的错误消息对青少年学生的影响越来越大。学校可以用来解决这个问题的一个工具是媒体素养教育)”和最后一段中的“Schools still have a long way to go before they get there, though. Many more studies will be needed for researchers to reach a comprehensive understanding of what works and what doesn’t over the long term. (然而,学校在实现这一目标之前还有很长的路要走。研究人员还需要进行更多的研究,才能全面了解什么在长期内起作用,什么不起作用)”及其它段落可知,文章就如何实现媒体素养教育目标,作者提出了不同的方法来帮助学生形成心态,让他们能够适应不确定性,但是在实现这一目标之前还有很长的路要走,A项“媒体素养教育:路很长”符合文意。故选A项。
D
There’s a song by the great Jamaican singer Bob Marley called So Much Trouble in the World. Marley understood that part of the reason why there are so many problems in the world is the lack of tolerance between people. The UN understands this too — that’s why it made Nov.16 “International Day for Tolerance”.
But first of all, what is tolerance? French philosopher Voltaire (1694-1778) can give us some help. According to him, tolerance is the consequence of humanity. We are all formed of frailty (脆弱) and error; let us pardon each other’s folly — that is the first law of nature.
Nobody’s perfect; when we’re tempted to criticize another person, we should perhaps remember our own imperfections first.
Very often, people don’t realize that they’re intolerant. This is because intolerance has a lot to do with ignorance. For example, the UN’s campaign is in part about the treatment of females by males. But often, the behavior of men toward women is intolerant because men don’t put themselves in the shoes of women.
It’s worth thinking a little about the words “tolerance” and “intolerance”. Are they the best words to describe the evils of which we’re speaking here? To agree to be “tolerant” of someone isn’t necessarily a very respectful thing. When someone is tolerated, it implies that there’s something wrong with them.
But it seems wrong that people should agree to “tolerate” people with black skin, for example. And should women think they have received the respect they are due when men agree to “tolerate” them?
Still what Voltaire said stands: We humans are not perfect and this weakness is something that we all share. That’s the reason why we should be tolerant.
It’s a little like generosity. We can give things to another person, and we can also give our forgiveness. Bob Marley understood this. In the song mentioned above, he advised: “All you got to do: give a little.” Or, as this older piece of wisdom says: “Write your love on a rock so it stays for eternity; write your hate in the sand so the waves will wash it away.”
12. According to Voltaire, tolerance is _________.
A. being willing to express your love to others
B. trying to overcome your imperfections
C. giving a hand to vulnerable groups
D. accepting each other’s weaknesses
13. In what sense is “tolerance” similar to “generosity”?
A. Humans are advised to treat others better.
B Humans learned to find faults in others.
C. Humans need to give something to others.
D. Humans will change their attitudes to others.
14. The underlined word ”this“ in the last paragraph refers to _________.
A. giving things to others
B. forgiving others
C. different attitudes toward love and hate
D. the fact that humans are imperfect
15. What’s the text mainly about?
A. The origin of the International Day of Tolerance.
B. The meaning and importance of tolerance.
C. The philosophy behind Bob Marley’s song.
D. Effective ways to show tolerance.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了联合国将11月16日定为“国际宽容日”,其目的是为了唤起人们对宽容的意识,此外文章着重介绍了宽容的意义和重要性。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“According to him, tolerance is the consequence of humanity. We are all formed of frailty (脆弱) and error; let us pardon each other’s folly—that is the first law of nature.(在他看来,宽容是人性的结果。我们都是由脆弱和错误组成的;让我们彼此原谅的愚蠢——这是自然的第一法则。)”可知,伏尔泰认为宽容是接受对方的弱点,故选D。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“It’s a little like generosity. We can give things to another person, and we can also give our forgiveness.(这有点像慷慨。我们可以给别人东西,我们也可以给予我们的宽恕。)”可知,宽容类似于慷慨,这是因为对别人宽容,意味着我们给予别人宽容,这就像对别人慷慨一样,我们需要给别人一些东西,故选C。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。由最后一段“It’s a little like generosity. We can give things to another person, and we can also give our forgiveness. Bob Bob Marley understood this. (这有点像慷慨。我们可以给别人东西,我们也可以给予我们对别人的宽恕。鲍勃·马利理解这一点)”可以判断出,this指代的是“forgiving others”。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,根据倒数第二段“Still, what Voltaire said stands: We humans are not perfect and this weakness is something that we all share. That’s the reason we should be tolerant.(尽管如此,伏尔泰的话仍然站得住脚:我们人类并不完美,这个弱点是我们共有的。这就是我们应该宽容的原因。)”可知,文章主要介绍了宽容的意义和重要性,故选B。
第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出可以填人空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
I am not sure how many books I have reread,but perhaps it is fewer than the average person. ____16____ The source material, though, is of course not.
I used to take the same approach to books as I did to travel: don't go to the same place twice.Life is too short.____17____Then I realized that the fact that life is short might work the other way around, too: if you know you enjoy something,or somewhere, then why not return?
Recently I reread Joseph Heller's Catch-22.I was inspired to do so when reminded of how he'd respond when people rudely asked him why he'd never written anything as good:"Who has?"Catch-22 pretty much saved my life when I first read it.____18____I had dropped out of school twice,didn't leave the house at all and didn't have a life.It felt as though I hadn't laughed in such a long time.
____19____It managed to take me out of the dark world, and though its themes are,of course,serious,its cleverness cheered me greatly.I related to its characters who are themselves trapped.I am now planning to reread the sort of books that inspired me in my own writing.
I won't take a break altogether from reading the most recent releases.I love the smell of new books fresh from the printers.____20____
A. Catch-22 had me laughing.
B. My favourites are secondhand editions.
C. There is discomfort in reading recently-released books.
D. At that time I was an extremely depressed 17-year-old.
E. For me, the pleasure of rereading is a newly discovered one.
F. There is so much to read and so much to see and experience.
G. However,I have determined to dip more frequently into the old ones
【答案】16. E 17. F 18. D 19. A 20. G
【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文。文章通过作者读书的经历,表达了虽然喜欢新书的味道,但还是喜欢重读能够激励自己的旧书的观点。
【16题详解】
根据上文“I am not sure how many books I have reread, but perhaps it is fewer than the average person.”(我不知道我重读了多少本书,但可能比一般人少。)提到作者不知道自己重读了多少书籍可知,后面紧接着要说重读对于作者的意义。E项“For me, the pleasure of rereading is a newly discovered one.(对我来说,重读的乐趣是新发现的。)”符合语境。故选E。
【17题详解】
上文“I used to take the same approach to books as I did to travel: don't go to the same place twice. Life is too short.”(我过去对待书籍和旅行的态度是一样的:不要去同一个地方两次。生命太短暂了。)说明之前作者对待书籍和对待旅行的态度是一样的,作者不会去同一个地方,不读同一本书,是因为生命太短暂,需要经历的东西太多。F项“There is so much to read and so much to see and experience.(有太多的东西要读,太多的东西要看和经历。)”承接上文,符合语境。故选F。
【18题详解】
根据下文“I had dropped out of school twice, didn't leave the house at all and didn't have a life.”(我曾两次辍学,根本没有离开家,没有生活。)可知,这里作者讲述了自己的故事,D项“At that time I was an extremely depressed 17-year-old.(当时我17岁,极度抑郁。)”符合语境。故选D。
【19题详解】
根据下文“It managed to take me out of the dark world, and though its themes are, of course, serious, its cleverness cheered me greatly.”(它成功地把我带出了黑暗的世界,当然,尽管它的主题是严肃的,但它的智慧让我大受鼓舞。)可知,本段要介绍一本能够激励作者的书。A项“Catch-22 had me laughing.(《第二十二条军规》让我笑了。)”符合语境。故选A。
【20题详解】
上文“I won't take a break altogether from reading the most recent releases. I love the smell of new books fresh from the printers.”(我不会完全从阅读最新版本中休息。我喜欢刚从印刷厂出来的新书的味道。)说道作者喜欢新书的味道,结合倒数第二段最后一句“I am now planning to reread the sort of books that inspired me in my own writing.”(我现在正计划重读那些启发我写作的书。)可推测此处应该表转折,表达“自己还是喜欢重读旧书”。G项“However, I have determined to dip more frequently into the old ones.(然而,我决定更频繁地使用旧的。)”符合语境。故选G。
第三部分语言运用(共两节,满分30分)
第一节(共15小题;每小题1分,满分15分)
阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D 四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。
Directions: For each blank in the following passage, there are four words or phrases marked A, B, C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context.
The word "adolescence" literally means "growing up" (from the Latin adolescere). ____21____, it describes a distinct stage between childhood and adulthood, but in practice often simply defines the "teenage" years. In most Western societies, the idea of adolescence was not ____22____ until the 20 th century; childhood ended and adulthood began at a certain age – typically at 18.
G. Stanley Hall, a psychologist and educator, in his 1904 book Adolescence, was the first to explore the ____23____. Hall was influenced by Darwin's theory of evolution, perceiving that all childhoods, especially with regard to behavior and early physical development, reflect the course of ____24____ change, and that we each develop in accordance with our "ancestral record".
One key influence on Hall was the 18th -century "Sturm and Drang" (Storm and Stress) movement of German writers and musicians, which promoted total freedom of expression. Hall ____25____ adolescence as "Sturm and Drang"; he considered it a stage of emotional disturbance and rebellion, with behavior ranging from quiet moodiness to wild ____26____. He stated that adolescents "are eager for strong feelings and new sensations, while routine and detail are ____27____". Awareness of self and the environment greatly increases; everything is more ____28____ felt, and sensation is pursued for its own sake.
Many of Hall's findings are ____29____ in research today. Hall believed that adolescents are highly affected by depression and described a "curve of despondency(消沉)" that starts at the age of 11, ____30____ at 15, then falls steadily until the age of 23. Modern research acknowledges a similar pattern. The causes of depression that Hall ____31____ are surprisingly familiar: suspicion of being disliked and having seemingly insuperable character faults, and "the ____32____ of hopeless love". He believed the self-consciousness of adolescence leads to criticizing self and others. This view mirrors later studies, which argue that teenagers' advanced ____33____ skills allow them to "read between the lines", while also intensifying their sensitivity to situations. Even Hall's claim that criminal activity is more common in the teenage years, reaching the top around 18, still ____34____.
However, Hall was not totally negative about adolescence. "Adolescence is a new ____35____," as he wrote in Youth: Its Education, Regiment, and Hygiene, "for the higher and more completely human qualities are how born."

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。续写的词数应为150左右
If there's one thing I can't stand people saying,it is"T 'm no good at anything.,I don't have any talent",I just don't buy that at all.To me,everyone has at least one talent,and while it sometimes takes you a lifetime to find,it does exist.There was a time when I didn't believe that. What changed my mind was a seemingly small event that took place in 1953.
At that time I was a high school student.I was a funny-looking skinny boy named Eugene Orowitz,who weighed barely 100 pounds,I was a good student,but as far as I was concerned,in just about every other department I was a loser.I wanted to fit in,to be someone and do something well.But I hadn't found anything I was good at.One sunny afternoon,our gym class went out to the school's running track.The teacher taught us all various track and field events.I was a loser in all of them.Then came the javelin(标枪)。Suddenly something inside me began saying,"Try it! Try it!”I had to wait my turn,though,trying not to look too eager.Finally,when everyone had had a chance to throw-the best throw going about 30 yards-I looked at the teacher.
"Hey,Orowitz,you want to try?"he asked.
Embarrassed,I looked down,but managed to nod my head.
"Well,come on then,"he said impatiently,and handed me the javelin.Behind me I could hear some of my classmates laughing.As I grasped the javelin in my hand,I was seized with a strange feeling-a new-found excitement.For some crazy reason,I was relaxed over what I was about to do,even though I'd never done it before.I raised the javelin over my head,took six quick steps and let the thing go.The same voice that had urged me to throw it,now told me it was a good throw.
Paragraph 1:
I watched as the javelin took off.My heart quickened
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph2:
That night I took the javelin home with me.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
I watched as the javelin took off.My heart quickened as I saw it continue to sail,30 yards out, then 40 yards.As it went past the 50-yard mark,it was still going.For a minute nothing was said.Then someone whispered,"Holy cow!"And others began cheering.Nobody could believe what I had just done.I took the javelin back to the gym teacher."You keep the thing."he said,still shaking his head in wonder.
Paragraph 2:
That night I took the javelin home with me.The very next day,I began practicing with it,and every day that summer-for six hours or more-I would throw it in a nearby schoolyard.By the time I was a member of the track team,all my practice paid off.I threw the javelin 211 feet that year,the best throw by any high-school boy in the country.I feel strongly that we must keep our minds open;we can't let ourselves be discouraged or depressed when the talent doesn't readily appear.

【详解】本文为续写作文。首先要认真读懂给作提供的材料,弄清整篇文章的中心,然后根据中心,围绕文章中心,联系生活,运用想象,补续事情的发展和故事的结局。人物和事物要与原文保持连续性和一致性,融为一体。续写的文章要有明确的中心,重点突出,有详有略。故事情节的向后延续发展要合乎情理。写好这类作文要注意几个步骤:
1.认真审题,找准提示语中的关键词或句,确定中心思想;
