A
King Arthur and His Knights of the Round Table
By Roger Lancelyn Creen
I loved reading when I was little. I think that’s the reason I love writing for children. My parents were both English teachers, and our home was full of books. Dickens was a family favourite. But the book that really fired my imagination was King Arthur and His Knights of the Round Table by Roger Lancelyn Green, which my father read to me at bedtime when I was around 12.
Diary of a Nobody
By George and Weedon Grossmith
I’m a fool for a classic, and I’m so glad I finally came across Diary of a Nobody by George and Weedon Grossmith. It began life as a serial in Punch, with text by Ceorge and illustrations by Weedon. Put simply, it’s the funniest book I’ve ever read, and the model for so many brilliant first-person narratives like Adrian Mole and Bridget Jones. The short pitch is that it follows the social climbing of a London clerk, Charles Pooter but of course it’s so much more than that, poking fun at all things from middle class.
Exhalation
By Ted Chiang
It’s never too late to have your life changed by a book, and it happened to me again recently when I read Ted Chiang’s Exhalation. Ted Chiang wrote Story of Your Life, which inspired the sci-fi alien-visitation classic Arrival. I love that too, but each and every piece in Exhalation is its match in writing skills. If there are super-intelligent aliens in the galaxy seeking to communicate important truths, Ted Chiang may well be one of them.
1. What is special about the book King Arthur and His Knights of the Round Table?
A. It describes a story of intelligent aliens.
B. It stimulates the author’s imagination of writing.
C. It helps the author to improve the writing skills.
D. It opens a window for the author to understand classics.
2. Who has drawn pictures for the book Diary of a Nobody?
A. Roger Lancelyn Green. B. George.
C. Weedon Grossmith. D. Ted Chiang.
3. Where is the text most likely from?
A. A diary. B. A novel. C. A guidebook. D. A magazine.
B
On February 13, 2023, Wu Yibing made history, beating John Isner in a thrilling three-set final at the Dallas Open to become the first man from China to win an ATP (Association of Tennis Professionals) title.
Brought to a tennis court for the first time at just five, initially encouraged by his parents as an exercise to lose weight, Wu soon had his talent discovered by his provincial junior team, kicking off a journey that would change the face of men’s tennis in China. In 2017, Wu Yibing shot to prominence after winning the US Open boys’ tournament at 18 to become the first Chinese to win a major junior title, raising high hopes for the “Wonder Boy” to change the fortune of Chinese men in a sport long dominated by women’s success on the pro stage.
In 2018, Wu won his first ATP Challenger title in Shanghai. However, the brutally competitive nature of men’s pro tennis hit the rising Wu with a tough reminder after multiple injuries—to his elbow, lower back, shoulder and wrist — forced him to be away from the ATP Tour for close to three years.
He made his return last year and won three ATP Challenger titles before qualifying for the US Open. “Looking back, I feel like I wouldn’t have been here if not for the ups and downs over the past few years. I take all the setbacks and struggles as an asset that helps me mature mentally now.” said Wu. “Of course there were a lot of doubts because I had surgery and the recovery wasn’t going well The championship today was a payoff for all the hard work and everyone who’s supported me along the way.”
4. What do the underlined words “shot to prominence” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Lost weight. B. Discovered talent. C. Became famous. D. Felt uncertain.
5 Why was Wu absent from the ATP Tour for nearly three years?
A. Because he feared possible failures. B. Because he refused fierce competitions.
C. Because he wanted to change his carcer. D. Because he suffered from serious physical injuries.
6. What can we learn from Wu Yibing’s statement?
A. No cross, no crown. B. Well begun is half done.
C. Easy come, easy go. D. Time waits for no man.
7. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. The Development of Chinese Tennis. B. The Power of Difficulties for Athletes.
C. The Pioneer of Chinese Tennis Sport. D. The First Chinese Male Winner of ATP Title.
C
I know it may be hard to convince you, but let me try: Don’t kill the next spider you see in your home.
People like to think of their dwellings as safely separated from the outside world, but many types of spiders can be found inside. Some are accidentally trapped, while others are short-term visitors. Some species even enjoy the great indoors, where they happily live out their lives and make more spiders. These fellows are usually secretive, and almost all you meet are neither aggressive nor dangerous. And they may be providing services like eating pests—some even eat other spiders.
My colleagues and I conducted a visual survey of 50 North Carolina homes. Every single house we visited was home to spiders. The most common species we encountered were cobweb spiders and cellar spiders. Both build webs where they lie in wait for prey(猎物) to get caught. Cellar spiders sometimes leave their webs to hunt other spiders.
Although they are all-around predators(捕食性动物), tending to eat anything they can catch, spiders regularly capture harmful pests and even disease-carrying insects—for example, mosquitoes. There’s even a species of jumping spider that prefers to eat blood-filled mosquitoes in African homes. So killing a spider doesn’t just cost the insect its life; it may take an important predator out of your home.
It’s natural to fear spiders. They have lots of legs and almost all are venomous—though the majority of species have venom(毒液) too weak to cause issues in humans, if their fangs can pierce our skin at all. Even entomologists themselves can fall prey to arachnophobia(蜘蛛恐惧症). I know a few spider researchers who overcame their fear by observing and working with these fascinating creatures. If they can do it, so can you!
8. What is a common misunderstanding of spiders according to Paragraph 2?
A. They can be trapped easily.
B. They often attack human beings.
C. They are friendly to human beings.
D. They live far away from human beings.
9. What will happen if you kill a spider in your home?
A. Losing a great assistant. B. Catching more insects.
C. Developing rare diseases. D. Rescuing other insects.
10. How can people get over their fear of spiders?
A. By discovering their habitats. B. By protecting their skin.
C. By getting along with them. D. By recognizing their venom.
11. What does the text suggest people do about spiders?
A. Spare spiders. B. Monitor spiders. C. Defeat spiders. D. Control spiders.
D
If you ask something of ChatGPT an artificial-intelligence(AI) tool, you may immediately get the responses, completely certain and often wrong. The questions raised by technologies like ChatGPT cause much more tentative answers. But they are ones that managers ought to start asking.
One issue is how to deal with employees’ concerns about job security. Worries are natural. An AI that makes it easier to process your expenses is one thing; an AI that people would prefer to sit next to at a dinner party quite another. Being clear about how workers would redirect time and energy that is freed up by an AI helps foster acceptance. So does creating a sense of agency: research conducted by MIT Sloan Management Review and the Boston Consulting Group found that an ability to override an AI makes employees more likely to use it.
Arthur Jago of the University of Washington and Glenn Carroll of the Stanford Graduate School of Business investigate how willing people are to give rather than earn credit—specifically for work that someone did not do on their own. They showed volunteers something attributed to a specific person — an artwork, say, or a business plan — and then revealed that it had been created either with the help of an algorithm or with the help of human assistants. Everyone gave less credit to producers when they were told they had been helped, but this effect was more pronounced for work that involved human assistants.
The picture that emerges from such research is messy. It is also dynamic: just as technologies evolve, so will attitudes. But it is crystal-clear on one thing. The impact of ChatGPT and other AIs will depend not just on what they can do, but also on how they make people feel.
12. What should managers take into consideration when using technologies like ChatGPT?
A Skills used for them. B. Issues caused by them.
C. Accuracy ensured in them. D. Alternatives discovered for them.
13. What can we learn about employees’ attitude towards AI from Paragraph 2?
A. They find it can make their work more complicated.
B. They think it is a threat for AI to replace them at work.
C. They consider it’s normal for AI to finish all their work.
D. They feel it’s vital for them to acknowledge its abilities.
14. What did the volunteers think of a task accomplished with AI algorithm?
A. They thought little of it. B. They were unaware of it.
C. They spoke highly of it. D. They felt envious about it.
15. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The limitation of AI. B. The importance of Chat GPT
C. The relationship between AI and humans. D. The practical application of Chat GPT.

The boy kept slaring out of the window, paying no attention to anyone else on the train. The man opened up a book and started reading. Now and then, he would look up and see the boy’s face pressed against the window. He sensed that the boy was fighting to keep from crying.
Finally, the boy asked the man, “Do you know what time it is? And do you know when we are to arrive at Smithville?” The man gave the boy the time. Then the boy told the man the whole story of his life. “Four years ago,” he said, “I did something bad hurting my dad, so bad that I had to run away from home. I couldn’t face my father. So I left without even saying goodbye to him. Since then, I have worked here and there. I never stayed very long in one place. I’ve been pretty lonely. Until finally, I decided that I want to go back to my father and apologized to him.”
The man went on to ask, “Does your father know you’re coming?” And the boy responded, “He knows I’m coming, but I don’t know if he will be there. I sent him a letter. I didn’t know if he would still want me back. I wasn’t sure if he would forgive me. So in my letter, I told him that if he wanted me to come home, he could put a sign on a tree which is a few hundred yards before the railroad station in Smithville. I told him that I would look for a yellow ribbon(丝带)on one of the branches of that tree as the train passes. If there is a yellow ribbon on the tree, then I’ll get off. If not, then I’ll just keep on riding to wherever this train goes.” The two of them were now waiting for Smithville.

On February 13, 2023, Wu Yibing made history, beating John Isner in a thrilling three-set final at the Dallas Open to become the first man from China to win an ATP (Association of Tennis Professionals) title.
Brought to a tennis court for the first time at just five, initially encouraged by his parents as an exercise to lose weight, Wu soon had his talent discovered by his provincial junior team, kicking off a journey that would change the face of men’s tennis in China. In 2017, Wu Yibing shot to prominence after winning the US Open boys’ tournament at 18 to become the first Chinese to win a major junior title, raising high hopes for the “Wonder Boy” to change the fortune of Chinese men in a sport long dominated by women’s success on the pro stage.
In 2018, Wu won his first ATP Challenger title in Shanghai. However, the brutally competitive nature of men’s pro tennis hit the rising Wu with a tough reminder after multiple injuries—to his elbow, lower back, shoulder and wrist — forced him to be away from the ATP Tour for close to three years.
He made his return last year and won three ATP Challenger titles before qualifying for the US Open. “Looking back, I feel like I wouldn’t have been here if not for the ups and downs over the past few years. I take all the setbacks and struggles as an asset that helps me mature mentally now.” said Wu. “Of course there were a lot of doubts because I had surgery and the recovery wasn’t going well The championship today was a payoff for all the hard work and everyone who’s supported me along the way.”
4. What do the underlined words “shot to prominence” in Paragraph 2 probably mean?
A. Lost weight. B. Discovered talent. C. Became famous. D. Felt uncertain.
5. Why was Wu absent from the ATP Tour for nearly three years?
A. Because he feared possible failures. B. Because he refused fierce competitions.
C. Because he wanted to change his carcer. D. Because he suffered from serious physical injuries.
6. What can we learn from Wu Yibing’s statement?
A. No cross, no crown. B. Well begun is half done.
C. Easy come, easy go. D. Time waits for no man.
7. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. The Development of Chinese Tennis. B. The Power of Difficulties for Athletes.
C. The Pioneer of Chinese Tennis Sport. D. The First Chinese Male Winner of ATP Title.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. A 7. D

4题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词后文“after winning the US Open boys’ tournament at 18 to become the first Chinese to win a major junior title, raising high hopes for the “Wonder Boy” to change the fortune of Chinese men in a sport long dominated by women’s success on the pro stage”可知，在2017 年，18岁的吴易昺赢得了美国男子公开赛冠军，成为了首位赢得重要青少年锦标赛冠军的中国人，这使得人们对这位“神奇男孩”寄予厚望，希望他能在这项长期由女性主导的职业运动中改变中国男网的命运。说明他在美国男子公开赛中一举成名，故划线词表示“一举成名”。故选C。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“However, the brutally competitive nature of men’s pro tennis hit the rising Wu with a tough reminder after multiple injuries—to his elbow, lower back, shoulder and wrist — forced him to be away from the ATP Tour for close to three years.(然而，男子职业网球残酷的竞争性质给正在崛起的吴带来了沉重的打击，他的肘部、下背部、肩膀和手腕多处受伤，迫使他离开ATP巡回赛近三年)”可知，因为参加职业网球残酷的竞争，使得吴易昺的肘部、下背部、肩膀和手腕多处受伤，这迫使他离开ATP 巡回赛近三年。故选D。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中““Looking back, I feel like I wouldn’t have been here if not for the ups and downs over the past few years. I take all the setbacks and struggles as an asset that helps me mature mentally now.” said Wu. “Of course there were a lot of doubts because I had surgery and the recovery wasn’t going well The championship today was a payoff for all the hard work and everyone who’s supported me along the way.”(“回顾过去，我觉得如果不是过去几年的起伏，我就不会在这里。我把所有的挫折和挣扎都当作一种资产，帮助我现在的心理成熟。”吴说。“当然有很多质疑，因为我做了手术，康复过程并不顺利。今天的总冠军是我所有努力和所有支持我的人的回报。”)”可推知，此处他的表达给我们的启发是：没有困难，就没有收获，与A项“不经历风雨，怎么见彩虹”表达一致。故选A。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“On February 13,2023, Wu Yibing made history, beating John Isner in a thrilling three-set final at the Dallas Open to become the first man from China to win an ATP(Association of Tennis Professionals) title.(2023年2月13日，吴易昺创造了历史，在达拉斯公开赛惊险的三盘决赛中击败John Isner，成为第一个赢得ATP冠军的中国男子)”并结合全文可知，文章主要介绍了年少成名的网球运动员吴易昺由于严重受伤退出了 ATP 比赛，在经历三年的治疗康复后，最终复出，创造了中国网球的新历史：成为中国首个获得 ATP 赛达拉斯冠军的男网运动员。D选项“首位获得ATP冠军的中国男子选手”符合文章标题。故选D。

I know it may be hard to convince you, but let me try: Don’t kill the next spider you see in your home.
People like to think of their dwellings as safely separated from the outside world, but many types of spiders can be found inside. Some are accidentally trapped, while others are short-term visitors. Some species even enjoy the great indoors, where they happily live out their lives and make more spiders. These fellows are usually secretive, and almost all you meet are neither aggressive nor dangerous. And they may be providing services like eating pests—some even eat other spiders.
My colleagues and I conducted a visual survey of 50 North Carolina homes. Every single house we visited was home to spiders. The most common species we encountered were cobweb spiders and cellar spiders. Both build webs where they lie in wait for prey(猎物) to get caught. Cellar spiders sometimes leave their webs to hunt other spiders.
Although they are all-around predators(捕食性动物), tending to eat anything they can catch, spiders regularly capture harmful pests and even disease-carrying insects—for example, mosquitoes. There’s even a species of jumping spider that prefers to eat blood-filled mosquitoes in African homes. So killing a spider doesn’t just cost the insect its life; it may take an important predator out of your home.
It’s natural to fear spiders. They have lots of legs and almost all are venomous—though the majority of species have venom(毒液) too weak to cause issues in humans, if their fangs can pierce our skin at all. Even entomologists themselves can fall prey to arachnophobia(蜘蛛恐惧症). I know a few spider researchers who overcame their fear by observing and working with these fascinating creatures. If they can do it, so can you!
8. What is a common misunderstanding of spiders according to Paragraph 2?
A. They can be trapped easily.
B. They often attack human beings.
C. They are friendly to human beings.
D. They live far away from human beings.
9. What will happen if you kill a spider in your home?
A. Losing a great assistant. B. Catching more insects.
C. Developing rare diseases. D. Rescuing other insects.
10. How can people get over their fear of spiders?
A. By discovering their habitats. B. By protecting their skin.
C. By getting along with them. D. By recognizing their venom.
11. What does the text suggest people do about spiders?
A. Spare spiders. B. Monitor spiders. C. Defeat spiders. D. Control spiders.
【答案】8. D 9. A 10. C 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要通过介绍蜘蛛的生活习性以及给人类生活带来的好处，劝导人们不要杀害蜘蛛。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中的“People like to think of their dwellings as safely separated from the outside world, but many types of spiders can be found inside.(人们喜欢认为他们的住所与外界安全隔离，但里面可以找到许多类型的蜘蛛。)”可知，人们觉得自己生活在一个与外界安全隔离的地方，但是蜘蛛却在室内可以被发现，由此可知，人们常见的误解是蜘蛛住得离人类很远。故选D项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“So killing a spider doesn’t just cost the insect its life; it may take an important predator out of your home.(所以杀死一只蜘蛛不仅会让蜘蛛失去生命；它可能会把一个重要的捕食者从你的家里带走。)”可知，杀死蜘蛛意为着把重要的捕食者带走，也就是说，你失去了一个了不起的助手。故选A项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中的“I know a few spider researchers who overcame their fear by observing and working with these fascinating creatures. If they can do it, so can you!(我认识一些蜘蛛研究人员，他们通过观察和研究这些迷人的生物来克服他们的恐惧。如果他们能做到，你也可以！)”可知，蜘蛛研究员是通过观察和研究起这些小生物来克服对蜘蛛的恐惧的，而且作者认为他们能做到的，你也可以做到，由此可知，人们可以通过与蜘蛛相处来克服对蜘蛛的恐惧。故选C项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中的“I know it may be hard to convince you, but let me try: Don’t kill the next spider you see in your home.(我知道可能很难说服你，但让我试试：不要杀死你在家里看到的下一只蜘蛛)”以及下文中对蜘蛛生活习性和对人类的好处的介绍可知，作者是要通过介绍蜘蛛对人类的好处在尽力地劝说人们不要伤害蜘蛛，所以本文建议人们要放过蜘蛛。故选A项。

If you ask something of ChatGPT, an artificial-intelligence(AI) tool, you may immediately get the responses, completely certain and often wrong. The questions raised by technologies like ChatGPT cause much more tentative answers. But they are ones that managers ought to start asking.
One issue is how to deal with employees’ concerns about job security. Worries are natural. An AI that makes it easier to process your expenses is one thing; an AI that people would prefer to sit next to at a dinner party quite another. Being clear about how workers would redirect time and energy that is freed up by an AI helps foster acceptance. So does creating a sense of agency: research conducted by MIT Sloan Management Review and the Boston Consulting Group found that an ability to override an AI makes employees more likely to use it.
Arthur Jago of the University of Washington and Glenn Carroll of the Stanford Graduate School of Business investigate how willing people are to give rather than earn credit—specifically for work that someone did not do on their own. They showed volunteers something attributed to a specific person — an artwork, say, or a business plan — and then revealed that it had been created either with the help of an algorithm or with the help of human assistants. Everyone gave less credit to producers when they were told they had been helped, but this effect was more pronounced for work that involved human assistants.
The picture that emerges from such research is messy. It is also dynamic: just as technologies evolve, so will attitudes. But it is crystal-clear on one thing. The impact of ChatGPT and other AIs will depend not just on what they can do, but also on how they make people feel.
12. What should managers take into consideration when using technologies like ChatGPT?
A. Skills used for them. B. Issues caused by them.
C. Accuracy ensured in them. D. Alternatives discovered for them.
13. What can we learn about employees’ attitude towards AI from Paragraph 2?
A. They find it can make their work more complicated.
B. They think it is a threat for AI to replace them at work.
C. They consider it’s normal for AI to finish all their work.
D. They feel it’s vital for them to acknowledge its abilities.
14. What did the volunteers think of a task accomplished with AI algorithm?
A. They thought little of it. B. They were unaware of it.
C. They spoke highly of it. D. They felt envious about it.
15. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. The limitation of AI. B. The importance of Chat GPT
C. The relationship between AI and humans. D. The practical application of Chat GPT.
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章以人工智能ChatGPT引发的问题为引入，通过一系列研究和实验探讨了人工智能与人类之间的关系。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The questions raised by technologies like ChatGPT cause much more tentative answers. But they are ones that managers ought to start asking.(由ChatGPT等技术引起的问题带来了更多的试探性答案。但它们是经理们应该开始问的问题)”可知，管理人员在使用ChatGPT等技术时应该考虑由它们引起的问题。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“One issue is how to deal with employees’ concerns about job security. Worries are natural. An AI that makes it easier to process your expenses is one thing; an AI that people would prefer to sit next to at a dinner party quite another. (其中一个问题是如何处理员工对工作保障的担忧。担忧是自然的。让你的开支更容易处理的人工智能是一回事；一个人们在晚宴上更愿意坐在旁边的人工智能就完全是另一回事了)”可知，员工认为人工智能在工作中取代他们，是一个威胁。故选B。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“They showed volunteers something attributed to a specific person — an artwork, say, or a business plan — and then revealed that it had been created either with the help of an algorithm or with the help of human assistants. Everyone gave less credit to producers when they were told they had been helped, but this effect was more pronounced for work that involved human assistants.(他们向志愿者展示了一些属于某个特定人物的东西——比如一件艺术品或一份商业计划——然后告诉他们，这些东西是在算法的帮助下或在人工助理的帮助下创建的。当每个人都被告知他们得到了帮助时，他们对制作者的信任就会降低，但这种影响在有人工助理的工作中更加明显)”可知，志愿者不喜欢使用AI算法完成的任务。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“The impact of ChatGPT and other AIs will depend not just on what they can do, but also on how they make people feel.(ChatGPT和其他人工智能的影响不仅取决于它们能做什么，还取决于它们给人的感觉)”结合文章以人工智能ChatGPT引发的问题为引入，通过一系列研究和实验探讨了人工智能与人类之间的关系。可知，这篇文章主要讲的是人工智能和人类的关系。故选C。

考查定语从句。句意：后来，宣纸成为研究中国传统文化的必备物品，也是中国文化的象征。分析句子结构可知，此处为连词引导的非限制性定语从句，从句中缺少主语，先行词指的是it指代的“a new type of paper”，指物。故填which。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：宣纸最早是用古代宣区(今安徽省靖县)的稻秆和一种典型树木的树皮制成的。分析句子结构可知，此处为非谓语动词作定语，know与Xuan Region之间为被动关系，所以使用过去分词形式。故填known。
【39题详解】
考查副词。句意：传统的宣纸制作工艺要求极高，工序超过100道。分析句子结构可知，此处为副词作状语修饰形容词demanding，extreme的副词为extremely。故填extremely。
【40题详解】
考查连词。句意：整个过程可能需要长达两年的时间才能完成，而且这些技能已经传递给了下一代。分析句子结构可知，此处为连词连接两个句子，结合句意可知，空前与空后为并列关系。故填and。
【41题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：诸如白色、柔软和防虫蛀等特征使宣纸可以保存1000多年。分析句子结构可知，此处为固定结构enable sb./sth. to do sth.意为“使……能……”，所以此处应为不定式结构，结合句意，此处表示主动意义。故填to last。
【42题详解】
考查名词。句意：令人惊讶的是，经过这么长的时间，它可以保持墨端颜色的新鲜度，因此被称为“时代纸”。分析句子结构可知，此处为名词作宾语，fresh的名词为freshness且为不可数名词。故填freshness。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：令人惊讶的是，经过这么长的时间，它可以保持墨端颜色的新鲜度，因此被称为“时代纸”。分析句子结构可知，此处为非谓语动词作状语，result in与上文讲述的“after such a long time, it can keep the ____7____(fresh) of the ink end color on it”这件事，为主动关系，结合句意，此处为结果状语。故填resulting。

第二节 读后续写（满分25分）
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。
On a train to Smithville, a man happened to sit down next to a young man no more than 17 years old. Because the boy was tense, the man wondered what could be worrying him. Whatever it was, the boy’s tension was clear.
The boy kept slaring out of the window, paying no attention to anyone else on the train. The man opened up a book and started reading. Now and then, he would look up and see the boy’s face pressed against the window. He sensed that the boy was fighting to keep from crying.
Finally, the boy asked the man, “Do you know what time it is? And do you know when we are to arrive at Smithville?” The man gave the boy the time. Then the boy told the man the whole story of his life. “Four years ago,” he said, “I did something bad hurting my dad, so bad that I had to run away from home. I couldn’t face my father. So I left without even saying goodbye to him. Since then, I have worked here and there. I never stayed very long in one place. I’ve been pretty lonely. Until finally, I decided that I want to go back to my father and apologized to him.”
The man went on to ask, “Does your father know you’re coming?” And the boy responded, “He knows I’m coming, but I don’t know if he will be there. I sent him a letter. I didn’t know if he would still want me back. I wasn’t sure if he would forgive me. So in my letter, I told him that if he wanted me to come home, he could put a sign on a tree which is a few hundred yards before the railroad station in Smithville. I told him that I would look for a yellow ribbon(丝带)on one of the branches of that tree as the train passes. If there is a yellow ribbon on the tree, then I’ll get off. If not, then I’ll just keep on riding to wherever this train goes.” The two of them were now waiting for Smithville.
注意：
1.续写词数应为150左右；

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Paragraph 1:
Now involved, the man stopped reading and also stared at the window. However, after a while, the boy’s face turned pale, seemingly feeling like sitting on pins and needles. The man noticed that and tried to comfort the boy. He said gently, “Don’t worry. Whatever happens, please remember that there is always light behind the clouds.” After hearing his words, the boy turned his head and looked at him. The man added, “I’m a father, too. Parents are always there and never let go of their children.” The boy nodded, eyes full of hope.
Paragraph 2:
A few moments later, the conductor came along and called out, “Next stop — Smithville.” The boy could not move. The man, however, looked as hard as he could. And then he saw it! He shouted so loud that all the people in the train turned around. “It’s there! Look! The tree is covered with yellow ribbons! Not just one there’s a whole bunch!” The father had every reason not to put up a yellow ribbon and yet he did.Only a father whose love is real could blanket the tree with yellow ribbons, each one of them proclaiming reconciliation.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，文章讲述了在开往史密斯维尔的火车上，一个男人注意到一个年青人显得很紧张。男人问年青人怎么了，年青人告诉男人四年前他做了伤害自己父亲的事，选择了离家出走。现在，年青人想回到父亲身边，他写信给父亲，如果父亲能原谅他的话，就在火车站附近的树上系上一条黄丝带。如果看到黄丝带，年青人就会下车。
【详解】1.段落续写：
