Deveza’s mother was on the waiting list for a kidney transplant(肾移植). Deveza wanted to donate one of her own kidneys—but she was turned down because she might develop the same health problems as her mother in later life.
Deveza came up with a different plan. In 2017, she started the world’s first paired exchange of different organs between living donors, exchanging half her liver(肝) for someone else’s kidney. A case study of the organ exchange has now been published, and the surgeons who were involved are calling for more exchanges like this. “You can imagine the enormous impact for mixed organ extended chains,” says John Roberts, a surgeon at University of California, San Francisco.
Most organ transplants come from people who have died, but there are never enough organs. As most people can manage with just one of their kidneys, people with kidney failure are increasingly receiving donated organs from relatives or friends. If someone wants to donate but their immune(免疫的) system is unsuited, doctors may be able to find pairs of would-be donors who can each give a kidney to the other’s relative.
When Deveza was looking into such chains, she came across research describing the idea of trading a kidney with the only other organ generally taken from a living donor—the liver. She suggested the idea to many hospitals before she finally contacted Roberts, who saw the idea’s potential.
Deveza was assessed to be in good enough health to donate part of her liver. It then took 18 months to find Annie Simmons, in Idaho, whose liver was unsuitable to use as a transplant for her sister with severe liver disease. They drew up a plan: Simmons would donate a kidney to Deveza’s mother, and in return, Deveza would give half her liver to Simmons’ sister. The hospital gave the go-ahead and the four operations took place on the same day successfully.
The team hope that the ground-breaking case will inspire more people to consider doing the same. Roberts says that direct exchanges involving two donors could enable up to thirty extra living-donor liver transplants a year—a ten percent increase.
4. What did Deveza do to save her mother?
A. Carrying out a case study.
B. Calling for kidney donations.
C. Launching a medical experiment.
D. Trading half her liver for a kidney.
5. What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A. Patients’ desperation to survive.
B. Several sources of organ donation.
C. Current situation of organ transplants.
D. Doctors’ efforts to improve organ transplants.
6. What can be inferred about the organ exchange between Deveza and Simmons?
A. It discouraged organ donation.
B. It brought two families together.
C. It met with widespread approval.
D. It produced a desirable outcome.
7. What is the best title for the text?
A. My Liver, Your Kidney
B. Mother’s Love, Our Happiness
C. Organ Transplant: Blessing for Patients
D Organ Exchange: Major Medical Advances

It’s no secret now that the more time we spend on social media, the more we feel dissatisfied with ourselves. We tend to compare ourselves to influences and celebrities- so it’s easy to understand how that can affect our confidence.
But, how often have you found yourself comparing your life to your friends? Engaging with social media shared by our friends can be more damaging than looking at content shared by celebrities, new research has found.
The study looking at how social media affects body image found that any social media engagement was significantly associated with lower “appearance satisfaction”. Additionally, it found that engaging with content posted by people the participants knew was more than twice as damaging as looking at content posted by strangers, including celebrities.
Viren Swami, Professor of Social Psychology at Anglia Ruskin University, believes this is partly because we know it’s hard to attain the lives of celebrities or influences, but when we’re comparing ourselves to our friends, it feels like we should- or could-live the way they do.
“One possible explanation is that people may perceive a post showing appearance as being much more attainable if it comes from someone they know, adding expectation or pressure on the person engaging in the post, ” he said. “At the same time, people may be more critically engaged with posts by the likes of models and celebrities, and therefore perceive the images they share to be more unrealistic. “
This is not just confined to body image though. We all have one area in our lives that triggers(触 发)us. Maybe you’ve been searching for a new job for months and you find yourself on social media, envying your school friend who just landed their dream role. Maybe. . .
All this is to say the obvious: we only see part of people’s lives -and if it’s getting you down, you’re probably comparing your insides to other people’s outsides. Everyone has their struggles and life is indeed not perfect for anyone. So, put down your phone, get offline, be thankful and try to live your own life.
8. What did the new study find?
A. Social media invites unfavorable comments.
B. Friends’ posts affect us more than celebrities’.
C. Celebrities have a negative influence on our life.
D. Body image causes more concern than social life.
9 Why are we more likely to compare with our friends according to Swami?
A. They serve as role models.
B. We know the way they live. ,
C. Their lifestyles are accessible.
D. We are curious about their life.
10. What does the underlined word in Paragraph 6 probably mean?
A. Restricted.
B. Related.
C. Devoted.
D. Exposed.
11. What does the author suggest people do?
A. Find your dream and fight for it.
B. Stop comparing and be yourself.
C. Be grateful and lead a perfect life.
D. Stop complaining and get down to work.
D
Given that the dictionary definition of curiosity is “the desire to know something”, it may be of little surprise that much research has concerned its benefits for education.
Consider a study at the University of California at Davis in 2014. The researchers first asked each participant to rate their curiosity about learning the answers to a series of questions, such as “What does the term ‘dinosaur’ actually mean?” The participants then lay in an fMRI brain scanner (扫描仪) while the same questions were presented, followed shortly after by the answers. The participants were then tested on their recollection of the facts an hour later.
The effects of curiosity on later recall were striking. When the participants were highly curious about a fact, they were 30% more likely to recall it. And this seemed to correspond to heightened activity in areas of the midbrain that release dopamine (多巴胺). Dopamine is normally associated with reward, but animal studies suggest that it can also enhance the formation of new neural(神经的) connections. It looked as if the feeling of curiosity was helping prepare the brain to absorb the new and important information, and this then resulted in a more stable memory.
Interestingly, the researchers found that the dopamine hit, arising from initial curiosity, could even enhance the memory of incidental information that had no direct relevance to the primary question. To demonstrate this, they had presented random faces alongside the answers to the questions and, an hour later, checked whether the participants still recognized the faces. The analyses showed that the participants were far more likely to remember the face if it had accompanied a question that had awakened their curiosity.
This additional, and unexpected, memory boost could be extremely useful whenever we’re trying to learn something new and complicated. We’re unlikely, after all, to find every single element of our studies interesting. But if we can develop some curiosity about at least some of the facts, we may find that the rest of the material also sticks far more easily.
12. Which aspect of curiosity did the study focus on?
A. Its scientific definition.
B. Its unique characteristics.
C. Its influences on memory.
D. Its benefits for brain health.
13. What was the purpose of presenting questions to the participants first?
A. To assess their learning ability.
B To awaken their passion for learning.
C. To measure their curiosity about the questions.
D. To refresh their memory of extinct wild animals.
14. What can be learned about dopamine according to Paragraph 3?
A. It blocks memory.
B. It facilitates learning.
C. It promotes friendship.
D. It cures neural disorder.
15 Which message about learning does the unexpected finding deliver?
A. Generate interest in study.
B. Locus on essential information.
C. Make learning materials related.
D. Attach importance to memorization.

Camping Tips &Tricks for a Fun Trip
Many people idealize camping trips as being this easy, effortless encounter with destinations rich with natural landscapes and nights under the stars twinkling in the sky above. ____16____ That’s why we’ve prepared the best camping tips for you!
Plan accordingly, and then plan again. When you’re out in the middle of nowhere, you have to be equipped to nature’s challenges. ____17____ Therefore, a plan for unexpected weather changes is essential to a successful camping trip. For example, consider packing extra suppliers like blankets. While that might seem like a huge inconvenience, the biggest and real issue occurs when you need something you don’t have.
Know what you need. ____18____ Not all beginner campers will need the top-of-the-line, latest supplies. But you should have at least the basics! That includes a decent tent with enough room for people camping with you, a good sleeping bag appropriate for the season, and other supplies like food and water. You’d better create a convenient checklist that lays out everything that you should consider.
____19____ When you’re far away from the major conveniences we rely upon like an urgent care center, police stations, and emergency rooms, you should always remember that safety is your first priority! ____20____ A first aid kit is a great starting point, but it’s certainly not the end of maximizing your safety efforts. Depending on where you plan to camp, you’ll want to grab these items that cover you in most emergency situations: a pocket knife, a fire starter, and a safety whistle.
Ready to go camping? Now you know what to expect and how to prepare for your next camping trip, so you actually have fun—rain or shine!
A. Always choose a safe campsite.
B. Never leave home without safety in mind.
C. We encourage you to create a safety supply kit.
D. Camping doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive.
E. A clear 3-day forecast can easily shift into a sudden heavy rain.
F. To maximize your comfort, always bring appropriate clothes for cold and rain.
G. But for beginner campers, those expectations can rapidly turn into a mess of reality.

Three years later, I was ____28____ and I moved back. As I looked for work, I would ____29____ the meals were eaten together.
_____30_____, two sad men living in a house are less of a family. My dad wanted me to get on and live my life rather than stay trapped in our sorrow. Eventually, in 2018, I got a _____31_____. It was time for me to gain _____32_____, and I packed up and left.

47. 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。
I ran after the train, shouting, “Hey mister, can’t you see me?” It was hopeless, as no conductor is going to slow down for a 60-year-old man who got to the station several minutes late. They absolutely didn’t know how important that day, that train ride was to me! I was on my way to an interview for what could have been the opportunity of a lifetime.
I threw both my hat and my art case down in depression, and sat down on the nearest chair, wiping (擦掉)the sweat from my face and breathing heavily. I would have to wait a whole day for the next train, and by then my appointment with the gallery owner would have given up on me. Perhaps it was for the best. It was, after all, the first time in 40 years anyone had shown such an interest in my art. Maybe if the gallery owner had seen all my paintings, he would have changed his mind about offering me space on his walls.
Disappointment filled my soul. Should I dial the gallery and get an interview on a different day? But Pierre Gianni was the owner of the most well-known gallery in New York City. Why would he give a rare second chance to an elderly nobody when he had the newest, coolest young artists to choose from?
Come to think of it, perhaps these insecurities were the very reason I had never been offered a show before. I was too afraid to try. I found countless excuses not to offer my work up to be seen and perhaps criticized. I told myself it would hurt too much if I failed, but the truth was that I had never tried.
Finally, I gathered all my courage to dial the gallery, only to find my antique cell phone had broken down. It was at the very moment that I was in total despair and decided to go home.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Suddenly I felt a touch on my shoulder.

【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了Deveza用自己的一半肝脏交换别人的肾脏给自己的妈妈,并取得了成功。这一成功的案例具有积极的影响。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第二段内容“Deveza came up with a different plan. In 2017, she started the world’s first paired exchange of different organs between living donors, exchanging half her liver for someone else’s kidney.(Deveza提出了一个不同的计划。2017年,她开始了世界上第一次活体捐赠者之间的不同器官配对交换,用自己的一半肝脏交换别人的肾脏。)”可知,Deveza为了帮助妈妈移植合适的肾脏,用自己的一半肝脏作为交换。故选D项。
【5题详解】
主旨大意题。通过阅读,结合第三段的关键句“… there are never enough organs.(但器官永远都不够用)”,“people with kidney failure are increasingly receiving donated organs from relatives or friends(肾衰竭患者越来越多地接受亲友捐赠的器官)”和“doctors may be able to find pairs of would-be donors who can each give a kidney to the other’s relative(医生可能会找到成对的潜在捐赠者,他们各自可以将一个肾脏捐给对方的亲属)”可知,该段主要讲述了器官移植的现状。故选C项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章末尾段内容“The team hope that the ground-breaking case will inspire more people to consider doing the same. Roberts says that direct exchanges involving two donors could enable up to thirty extra living-donor liver transplants a year—a ten per cent increase.(研究小组希望这个开创性的案例能激励更多的人考虑做同样的事情。罗伯茨说,涉及两名捐赠者的直接交换每年可增加多达30例活体肝脏移植——增加10%。)”可知,他们两个的“器官互换”的成功可以对其他人产生激励作用,从而使直接交换器官的案例增加。由此可推知,这产生了令人满意的结果。故选D项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通过阅读文章可知,文章第二段内容“In 2017, she started the world’s first paired exchange of different organs between living donors, exchanging half her liver for someone else’s kidney.( 2017年,她开始了世界上第一次活体捐赠者之间的不同器官配对交换,用自己的一半肝脏交换别人的肾脏。)”为核心话题,即,文章主要讲述了Deveza用自己的一半肝脏交换别人的肾脏给自己的妈妈,并取得了成功,后文则以此为延申讲述了其可能产生的积极影响。因此,选项A“My Liver, Your Kidney(我的肝,你的肾)”不仅贴合主旨,且作为标题更具有吸引力。故选A项。

All this is to say the obvious: we only see part of people’s lives -and if it’s getting you down, you’re probably comparing your insides to other people’s outsides. Everyone has their struggles and life is indeed not perfect for anyone. So, put down your phone, get offline, be thankful and try to live your own life.

【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了一项新研究。新研究发现朋友的帖子对人们的影响比名人的更大,让人们更容易与朋友进行比较。但是作者建议人们放下手机,心存感激,努力过自己的生活。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。文章第二段讲到“Engaging with social media shared by our friends can be more damaging than looking at content shared by celebrities, new research has found. (一项新的研究发现,与看名人分享的内容相比,参与朋友分享的社交媒体可能更具破坏性)”可知新研究发现朋友的帖子对我们的影响比名人的更大,故选B。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。文章第二段讲到“Viren Swami, Professor of Social Psychology at Anglia Ruskin University, believes this is partly because we know it’s hard to attain the lives of celebrities or influences, but when we’re comparing ourselves to our friends, it feels like we should- or could-live the way they do. (Anglia Ruskin大学社会心理学教授Viren Swami认为,这部分是因为我们知道很难获得名人或影响力的生活,但当我们将自己与朋友进行比较时,感觉我们应该或者可以像他们那样生活)”可知根据Swam的说法,我们更容易与朋友进行比较是因为他们的生活方式更容易见得到,故选C。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。文章划线单词下一句讲到“We all have one area in our lives that triggers(触 发)us. Maybe you’ve been searching for a new job for months and you find yourself on social media, envying your school friend who just landed their dream role. (我们的生活中都有一个领域触发了我们。也许你已经找了好几个月的新工作,你在社交媒体上发现自己,羡慕你的学校朋友,他刚刚找到了他们梦想中的角色。)”可知划线单词所在句子的意思是:但这不仅仅局限于身体形象。所以第六段中带下划线的单词可能的意思是“受限制的”,故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。文章最后一段讲到“Everyone has their struggles and life is indeed not perfect for anyone. So, put down your phone, get offline, be thankful and try to live your own life. (每个人都有自己的奋斗,生活对任何人来说都不完美。所以,放下手机,下线,心存感激,努力过自己的生活。)”可知作者建议人们停止比较,做你自己,故选B。
D
Given that the dictionary definition of curiosity is “the desire to know something”, it may be of little surprise that much research has concerned its benefits for education.
Consider a study at the University of California at Davis in 2014. The researchers first asked each participant to rate their curiosity about learning the answers to a series of questions such as “What does the term ‘dinosaur’ actually mean?” The participants then lay in an fMRI brain scanner (扫描仪) while the same questions were presented, followed shortly after by the answers. The participants were then tested on their recollection of the facts an hour later.
The effects of curiosity on later recall were striking. When the participants were highly curious about a fact, they were 30% more likely to recall it. And this seemed to correspond to heightened activity in areas of the midbrain that release dopamine (多巴胺). Dopamine is normally associated with reward, but animal studies suggest that it can also enhance the formation of new neural(神经的) connections. It looked as if the feeling of curiosity was helping prepare the brain to absorb the new and important information, and this then resulted in a more stable memory.
Interestingly, the researchers found that the dopamine hit, arising from initial curiosity, could even enhance the memory of incidental information that had no direct relevance to the primary question. To demonstrate this, they had presented random faces alongside the answers to the questions and, an hour later, checked whether the participants still recognized the faces. The analyses showed that the participants were far more likely to remember the face if it had accompanied a question that had awakened their curiosity.
This additional, and unexpected, memory boost could be extremely useful whenever we’re trying to learn something new and complicated. We’re unlikely, after all, to find every single element of our studies interesting. But if we can develop some curiosity about at least some of the facts, we may find that the rest of the material also sticks far more easily.
12. Which aspect of curiosity did the study focus on?
A. Its scientific definition.
B. Its unique characteristics.
C. Its influences on memory.
D. Its benefits for brain health.
13. What was the purpose of presenting questions to the participants first?
A. To assess their learning ability.
B. To awaken their passion for learning.
C. To measure their curiosity about the questions.
D. To refresh their memory of extinct wild animals.
14 What can be learned about dopamine according to Paragraph 3?
A. It blocks memory.
B. It facilitates learning.
C. It promotes friendship.
D. It cures neural disorder.
15. Which message about learning does the unexpected finding deliver?
A. Generate interest in study.
B. Locus on essential information.
C. Make learning materials related.
D. Attach importance to memorization.
【答案】12. C 13. C 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要介绍好奇心可以帮助记忆和提高学习兴趣。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Consider a study at the University of California at Davis in 2014. The researchers first asked each participant to rate their curiosity about learning the answers to a series of questions, such as “What does the term ‘dinosaur’ actually mean?” The participants then lay in an fMRI brain scanner (扫描仪) while the same questions were presented, followed shortly after by the answers. The participants were then tested on their recollection of the facts an hour later. (想想2014年加州大学戴维斯分校的一项研究。研究人员首先要求每个参与者对一系列问题的答案进行好奇心评估,比如“‘恐龙”这个词到底是什么意思?”然后,参与者躺在核磁共振扫描仪中,同时提出同样的问题,然后很快就会给出答案。一小时后,测试参与者对这些事实的记忆。)”可知,这项研究关注的是好奇心对记忆力的影响。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The researchers first asked each participant to rate their curiosity about learning the answers to a series of questions (研究人员首先要求每个参与者对一系列问题的答案进行好奇心评估)”可知,首先向参与者提出问题的目的是要衡量他们对问题的好奇心。故选C。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Dopamine is normally associated with reward, but animal studies suggest that it can also enhance the formation of new neural(神经的) connections. It looked as if the feeling of curiosity was helping prepare the brain to absorb the new and important information, and this then resulted in a more stable memory. (多巴胺通常与奖赏有关,但动物研究表明,它也能促进新的神经连接的形成。似乎好奇的感觉有助于大脑准备吸收新的重要信息,这会导致记忆更加稳定。)”可推断,多巴胺促进新的神经连接的形成,有助于大脑吸收新知识,导致记忆稳定,因此推断它可能有助于学习。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“This additional, and unexpected, memory boost could be extremely useful whenever we’re trying to learn something new and complicated. We’re unlikely, after all, to find every single element of our studies interesting. But if we can develop some curiosity about at least some of the facts, we may find that the rest of the material also sticks far more easily. (每当我们试图学习新的和复杂的东西时,这种额外的、意想不到的记忆增强可能会非常有用。毕竟,我们不太可能发现我们研究中的每一个元素都很有趣。但是,如果我们能对至少一些事实产生好奇心,我们可能会发现,其余的材料也更容易粘住。)”可知,这个意外的发现表明,好奇心可以激发学习兴趣。故选A。

Camping Tips &Tricks for a Fun Trip
Many people idealize camping trips as being this easy effortless encounter with destinations rich with natural landscapes and nights under the stars twinkling in the sky above. ____16____ That’s why we’ve prepared the best camping tips for you!
Plan accordingly, and then plan again. When you’re out in the middle of nowhere, you have to be equipped to nature’s challenges. ____17____ Therefore, a plan for unexpected weather changes is essential to a successful camping trip. For example, consider packing extra suppliers like blankets. While that might seem like a huge inconvenience, the biggest and real issue occurs when you need something you don’t have.
Know what you need. ____18____ Not all beginner campers will need the top-of-the-line, latest supplies. But you should have at least the basics! That includes a decent tent with enough room for people camping with you, a good sleeping bag appropriate for the season, and other supplies like food and water. You’d better create a convenient checklist that lays out everything that you should consider.
____19____ When you’re far away from the major conveniences we rely upon like an urgent care center, police stations, and emergency rooms, you should always remember that safety is your first priority! ____20____ A first aid kit is a great starting point, but it’s certainly not the end of maximizing your safety efforts. Depending on where you plan to camp, you’ll want to grab these items that cover you in most emergency situations: a pocket knife, a fire starter, and a safety whistle.
Ready to go camping? Now you know what to expect and how to prepare for your next camping trip, so you actually have fun—rain or shine!
A. Always choose a safe campsite.
B. Never leave home without safety in mind.
C. We encourage you to create a safety supply kit.
D. Camping doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive.
E. A clear 3-day forecast can easily shift into a sudden heavy rain.
F. To maximize your comfort, always bring appropriate clothes for cold and rain.
G. But for beginner campers, those expectations can rapidly turn into a mess of reality.
【答案】16. G 17. E 18. D 19. B 20. C
【解析】

【16题详解】
后文“That’s why we’ve prepared the best camping tips for you!(这就是为什么我们为您准备了最好的露营小贴士!)”讲述的是结果:准备露营小贴士。因此,设空句应是讲述这样做的原因,呼应“why”。选项G“But for beginner campers, those expectations can rapidly turn into a mess of reality.(但对于初学露营的人来说,这些期望很快就会变成现实的混乱。)”解释了原因,且在句意上与前文构成转折关系,前后衔接紧密。故选G项。
【17题详解】
前文“When you’re out in the middle of nowhere, you have to be equipped to nature’s challenges.(当你身处偏僻之地时,你必须准备好迎接大自然的挑战。)”提到了“自然的挑战”,后文“Therefore, a plan for unexpected weather changes is essential to a successful camping trip.(因此,应对意外天气变化的计划对于成功的露营旅行至关重要。)”提到了“不可预料的天气变化”,因此,设空句应同样涉及“天气”话题,以与前后文衔接。选项E“A clear 3-day forecast can easily shift into a sudden heavy rain.(一个晴朗的3天预报很容易转变为突然的大雨。)”符合题意,承上启下。故选E项。
【18题详解】
根据主旨句“Know what you need.(知道你需要什么。)”可知,该段讲述的是对于露营物资方面的准备,且后文“Not all beginner campers will need the top-of-the-line, latest supplies. But you should have at least the basics!(并非所有初学者都需要顶级的最新用品。但你至少应该有基础知识!)”讲述了“适当”这一原则,因此设空句要呼应主题“露营物质”和“适当”。选项D“Camping doesn’t have to be complicated or expensive.(露营不必复杂或昂贵。)”贴合主题,符合分析。故选D项。
【19题详解】
根据后文“When you’re far away from the major conveniences we rely upon like an urgent care center, police stations. and emergency rooms, you should always remember that safety is your first priority!(当你远离我们所依赖的主要便利设施,如紧急护理中心、警察局和急诊室时,你应该永远记住,安全是你的第一要务!)”可知,该段强调的是“露营的安全”,设空句作为主旨句,应突出“安全”。选项B“Never leave home without safety in mind.(永远不要离开家而不考虑安全。)”符合题意,可以作为小标题。故选B项。
【20题详解】
根据前文“When you’re far away from the major conveniences we rely upon like an urgent care center, police stations. and emergency rooms, you should always remember that safety is your first priority!(当你远离我们所依赖的主要便利设施,如紧急护理中心、警察局和急诊室时,你应该永远记住,安全是你的第一要务!)”和下文“A first aid kit is a great starting point, but it’s certainly not the end of maximizing your safety efforts.(急救箱是一个很好的起点,但它肯定不是最大限度地提高安全努力的终点。)”可知,作者在这里强调了外出的安全,并且提到了急救箱。由此推知,空处内容应与急救箱有关,选项C“We encourage you to create a safety supply kit.(我们鼓励您创建一个安全供应包。)”符合分析。故选C项。

47. 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。
I ran after the train, shouting, “Hey mister, can’t you see me?” It was hopeless, as no conductor is going to slow down for a 60-year-old man who got to the station several minutes late. They absolutely didn’t know how important that day, that train ride was to me! I was on my way to an interview for what could have been the opportunity of a lifetime.
I threw both my hat and my art case down in depression, and sat down on the nearest chair, wiping (擦掉)the sweat from my face and breathing heavily. I would have to wait a whole day for the next train, and by then my appointment with the gallery owner would have given up on me. Perhaps it was for the best. It was, after all, the first time in 40 years anyone had shown such an interest in my art. Maybe if the gallery owner had seen all my paintings, he would have changed his mind about offering me space on his walls.
Disappointment filled my soul. Should I dial the gallery and get an interview on a different day? But Pierre Gianni was the owner of the most well-known gallery in New York City. Why would he give a rare second chance to an elderly nobody when he had the newest, coolest young artists to choose from?
Come to think of it, perhaps these insecurities were the very reason I had never been offered a show before. I was too afraid to try. I found countless excuses not to offer my work up to be seen and perhaps criticized. I told myself it would hurt too much if I failed, but the truth was that I had never tried.
Finally, I gathered all my courage to dial the gallery, only to find my antique cell phone had broken down. It was at the very moment that I was in total despair and decided to go home.

【答案】参考范文
Paragraph 1:
Suddenly I felt a touch on my shoulder. I turned around and saw an old man smiling gently at me. He told me that he had noticed the trouble which I was in and offered to lend me his phone. I wanted to express my heartfelt gratitude to him but words got stuck in my throat. Taking the phone he passed to me, I managed to collect myself and plucked up my courage to dial Pierre. After what seemed like an eternity, the phone was picked up. To my great relief, Pierre agreed to postpone the interview.
Paragraph 2:
The next morning I got to the gallery on time. I was staring at its grandeur when Pierre approached and welcomed me warmly. Several minutes later, with trembling hands I opened my art case and showed him my paintings one by one. Pierre fixed his eyes on my works with interest, listening to me attentively. Time ticking by, I grew more and more confident and excited. He loved my works! They were scheduled to be exhibited one month later! I was never more certain that what seems far beyond is simply a leap away if you dare to give it a try.
【解析】
【导语】本文以故事发展为线索展开,讲述在赶往面试的路上,作者因没赶上火车而沮丧。更让作者失望的是,他不知道画廊老板皮埃尔是否会对他的画感兴趣,给他展出的机会。当作者鼓足勇气给皮埃尔打电话时,却发现手机坏了。这时,一位老人走过来把手机借给作者。让作者欣慰的是,皮埃尔同意推迟面试。在第二天的面试中,皮埃尔表示对作者的画很感兴趣,并计划一个月后让作者展出。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“突然,我感到有人碰了碰我的肩膀。”可知,第一段可描写一位陌生人借给作者手机,作者联系上皮埃尔,皮埃尔同意推迟面试。
②由第二段首句内容“第二天早上我准时到了画廊。”可知,第二段可描写作者向皮埃尔展示他的作品,皮埃尔表示对作者的画感兴趣,并计划一个月后让作者展出。
