第二部分 阅读(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A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
As you slowly rid your diet of junk food and sweets，you’ll notice a change: you actually start to like those healthy foods that you once refused.And as you start fueling your body with nutrients and noticing how much better you feel，there’s a good chance you’ll lose weight，too.Here’s how your new healthy eating habits are helping you drop pounds.
Drinking water
Finally you decided to change those Diet Cokes for water? It’s a good decision: drinking more water helps keep your skin and other cells healthy and functioning properly，and drinking enough water keeps you from feeling lethargic(没精打采的) and tired.Your new water habit is great for your waistline as well: drinking water helps prevent overeating.
Eat more fruits and vegetables
Your new weekend’s to-do list that includes a trip to the farmers’ market to stock(贮备) up on vegetables for the week isn’t just helping you eat more disease-fighting nutrients；loading up on produce is a smart weight-loss strategy.Fruits and vegetables are low-cal high-fiber(低卡高纤维) food to stay satisfied and feel full longer.
Cooking at home
Healthy eating means cooking at home more since you’re able to see what exactly is going into your food and control the amount of salt，sugar，and fat in it.Not only does this ensure you’re eating the nutrients you need，but you’ll also save major calories from giving up the large buttery portions(比例)found in many restaurants.If you’re new to cooking and need some tips，just surf our page and read our advice on how to be a healthy cook.

Football star Jason Brown retired abruptly from the NFL(美国国家橄榄球大联盟) in 2012 in order to deal with something bigger than anything he’d faced on a football field: sweet potatoes.
Brown，then 29，moved with his wife，Tay，and their children from Missouri，where he’d played with the St.Louis Rams，back home to North Carolina，where he bought 1,000 acres in Louisburg.Overnight，he went from a football star to a family farmer.“For most people，it doesn’t make sense—why would you leave an awesome NFL career？” he says.
But Brown wasn’t going to become just any farmer.He would give away nearly everything he grew.“I didn’t feel I was just supposed to use my millions to buy food and donate it.I had to be out there doing the work and leading the way，” he says.
This radical step came to him one day when he was struck by a feeling that he had a purpose beyond sports.“Farming chose me；it was my calling in life，” he says.
Only one problem：Jason didn’t know the first thing about farming.So he did what all beginners do today—watched videos on the Internet.Then he partnered with another local farm that helped him plant fields of sweet potatoes.He named his land First Fruits Farm.
In the early fall of 2014，the first harvest was ready.Fifty pickup trucks arrived at the farm and loaded up 120,000 pounds to distribute locally.In 2015，First Fruits Farm expanded its sweet potato donations to food banks across eastern North Carolina.
Jason uses his unusual story to show local youth what it takes to grow food from start to finish.“They get that food doesn’t just magically appear in the grocery store or restaurants，” he says.
语篇解读 本文主要介绍了足球明星Jason Brown。他离开很棒的球员生涯而成为一个农民，想用自己的方式去帮助那些有需要的人。
24．What did most people think of Brown’s decision to retire from the NFL?
A．They weren’t satisfied with it.
B．They couldn’t understand it.
C．They worried about it.
D．They disapproved of it.
答案 B

25．What does the underlined word “radical” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A．Easy. B．Slow.
C．Great. D．Careful.
答案 C

C．By practicing on a local farm.

答案 A

C
We can make mistakes at any age.Some mistakes we make are about money.But most mistakes are about people.“Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen？” “When I got that great job，did Jim really feel good about it，as a friend? Or did he envy my luck？” “And Paul—why didn’t I pick up that he was friendly just because I had a car？” When we look back，doubts like these can make us feel bad.But when we look back，it’s too late.
Why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning.And if we don’t really listen，we will miss the feeling behind the words.Suppose someone tells you，“You’re a lucky dog.” Is he really on your side? If he says, “You’re a lucky guy.” or “You’re a lucky girl.” that’s being friendly.But lucky “dog”？ There’s a bit of envy in those words.Maybe he doesn’t see it himself.But bringing in the “dog” bit puts you down a little.What he may be saying is that he doesn’t think you deserve your luck.
“Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for” is another noise that says one thing and means another.It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole.But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn’t important.It’s telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven’t got a date for Saturday night.
How can you tell the real meaning behind someone’s words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking.Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says agree with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think.The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.
语篇解读 在日常交往中，我们经常会误解他人。文章告诉我们在与他人交流的过程中要观察别人说话的表情、语调、姿态和眼神等，通过这些观察可以辨别出别人的真正想法。
28．This passage is mainly about .
A．how to interpret what people say
B．what to do when you listen to others talking
C．how to avoid mistakes when you communicate with people
D．Why we go wrong with people sometimes
答案 C
解析 主旨大意题。文章前三句“We can make mistakes at any age.Some mistakes we make are about money.But most mistakes are about people.”告诉我们经常犯的错误都是关于人的错误，文章接下来的部分告诉我们如何辨别别人的言外之意。也就是说本文主要告诉我们在与他人交流的过程中如何避免出现错误。故C项正确。
29．According to the author，the reason why we go wrong about our friends is that .
A．we fail to listen carefully when they talk
B．people tend to be annoyed when we check what they say
C．people usually state one thing but mean another
D．we tend to doubt what our friends say
答案 C
解析 推理判断题。根据第二段前三句可知，人们所说的话会隐藏他们真实的含义，如果我们没有真正理解，我们可能就会错过真实的含义，这也是我们为什么会和朋友产生误解的原因。故C项正确。
30．In the second paragraph，the underlined word “it” refers to “ ”．
A．being friendly B．a lucky dog
C．a bit of envy D．your luck
答案 C
解析 代词指代题。根据第二段中的“There’s a bit of envy in those words.Maybe he doesn’t see it himself.”可知，在别人用lucky dog形容你是幸运儿的时候，实际上是有点嫉妒的含义的，但是他自己并没有感觉到这一点。句中的it就是指前句中的“a bit of envy”，故C项正确。
31．When we listen to a person talking，the most important thing for us to do is .
A．notice the way the person is talking
B．take a good look at the person talking
C．mind his tone，his posture and the look in his eyes
D．examine the real meaning of what he says based on his manner，his tone and his posture

D
It used to be mostly the military(军队) that used small，unpiloted aircraft，called “drones”．The little planes were very costly.But as they have dropped in price more people have begun to use them.Rescue workers and farmers are among the new users.Moviemakers are using drones to film from the sky.Historians use them when they explore ancient buildings.Rescue workers use them to look for people.And now farmers are using them to watch over their crops.
Romain Faroux is a French businessman who starts companies.His father was a farmer.He believed drones could help farmers.He helped create a company that developed a small drone that could be controlled by people on the ground.They called it “Agridrone”．It uses a special “optical sensor” to examine crops.He says the technology used is similar to that used by smartphones—except it has wings.
A computer program directs the drone to fly over the crops.The sensor on the drone records four different colored “bands” of sunlight that are reflected off the crops.
Jean-Baptiste Bruggeman is a farmer.He says the drone flies over his crops at different times of the season.And this provides a lot of information about his crops.The drone pictures show him the exact amount of fertilizer the crops need.It also shows exactly where the fertilizer is needed.Some areas of a field may need more than others.
As a result，Mr Bruggeman says there is reduced nitrogen from the fertilizer after the harvest.This helps nature.Romain Faroux says farmers use information gathered by the Agridrone to place fertilizer only in areas where it was needed.Before they used the drones，farmers would put the same amount of fertilizer everywhere.
Drones also save time because farmers can examine up to three hectares in about a minute.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。现在无人机在生活中使用的范围越来越广。法国的农民们已经开始使用无人机来监控农作物。
32．The first paragraph is mainly about .
A．the expensive cost of drones
B．the fast development of drones
C．the wide use of drones
D．the urgent need of drones
答案 C
解析 段落大意题。通读第一段内容可知，过去军事上使用一种小型的、无人驾驶的无人机。这种无人机很昂贵。但是随着价格的下降，更多的人开始使用无人机，搜救人员和农民是无人机新的用户群体等，说明了无人机的广泛应用。
33．What do we know about Agridrone?
A．It records different-colored bands of sunlight.
B．It flies over the crops with a computer.
C．It absorbs the sunlight reflected off the crops.
D．It is like a smartphone with wings.
答案 D
解析 细节理解题。根据第二段的最后一句“He says the technology used is similar to that used by smartphones—except it has wings.”可知，它像一个有翅膀的智能手机。
34．What Mr Bruggeman said implied that by using drones .
A．he saved money and reduced pollution
B．he could gather his crops easily
C．he could fly over his crops at different times
D．he knew exactly the ingredients of his fertilizer
答案 A
解析 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段的“...Mr Bruggeman says there is reduced nitrogen...place fertilizer only in areas where it was needed.”可知，他使用了这种无人机之后，减少了化肥的使用量，这样既节省了钱，同时也保护了环境。
35．What is the main idea of the passage?
A．Drones will be widely used in different fields.
B．French farmers use drones to examine their crops.
C．Crops will be harvested by drones soon.
D．Farmers develop special drones for their crops.
答案 B
解析 主旨大意题。本文主要讲述了法国的农民们开始利用无人机来监控他们的农作物，这样可以限制肥料使用的数量，同时也起到保护环境的作用。

·Bring you a good feeling.
If you volunteer your time to help others，you’re sharing your blessings with those less fortunate，which is a wonderful gift to give! You’ll most likely return home after volunteering with a smile on your face. 37

Seek out opportunities，today，to help others.You’ll be glad you did!

B．Make a difference.
C．It may help you to start seeing everything in a more positive light.

语篇解读 本文讲述了一对爱读书的父子之间的小故事。父亲总是帮儿子解答问题，并理所当然地认为身为父亲，应该比儿子知道得多，但儿子却不这么认为。
56．答案 from
解析 borrow sth.from someplace从某处借某物。故填from。
57．答案 who
解析 此处为非限制性定语从句，先行词是Mike，从句中缺少主语，故用关系代词who引导定语从句。
58．答案 to understand
解析 根据固定句式too...to...“太……以至于不能……”可知，该空填to understand。
59．答案 interested
解析 be interested in对……感兴趣。

62．答案 more

63．答案 so
解析 I don’t think so.我不这样认为。
64．答案 invented
解析 根据时间状语in the 19th century可知，此处应用一般过去时，故填invented。

第二节 (满分25分)
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。续写的词数应为150左右。
A funny thing happened to Arthur when he was on the way to work one day.As he walked along Park Avenue near the First National Bank，he heard the sound of someone trying to start a car.He tried again and again but couldn’t get the car moving.Arthur turned and looked inside at the face of a young man who looked worried.Arthur stopped and asked，“It looks like you have got a problem，” Arthur said.
“I am afraid so.I am in a big hurry and I can’t start my car.”
“Is there something I can do to help？” Arthur asked.The young man looked at the two suitcases in the back seat and then said，“Thanks.If you are sure it wouldn’t be too much trouble，you could help me get these two suitcases into a taxi.”
“No trouble at all，I’d be glad to help.”
The young man got out and took one of the suitcases from the back seat.After placing it on the ground，he turned to get the other one.Just as Arthur picked up the first suitcase and started walking he heard the loud noise of an alarm.
It was from the bank.There had been a robbery.
Park Avenue had been quiet a moment before.Now the air was filled with the sound of the alarm and the shouts of people running from all directions.Cars stopped and the passengers joined the crowd in front of the bank.People asked each other，“What happened？” But everyone had a different answer.
Arthur，still carrying the suitcase，turned to look at the bank and walked right into the young woman in front of him.
She looked at the suitcase and then at him.Arthur was surprised，“Why is she looking at me like that？” He thought.“The suitcase! She thinks I am the bank thief！”
Arthur looked around at the crowd of people.He became frightened，and without another thought，he started to run.
Paragraph 1：
As he was running，Arthur heard the young man shouting behind，“Stop，stop！”
Paragraph 2：
The taxi stopped in front of the police station and Arthur jumped off with the suitcase，running to the police office.
参考答案
As he was running，Arthur heard the young man shouting behind，“Stop，stop！” So frightened was Arthur that he ran faster with that suitcase.When he rushed to Park Avenue，he stopped a taxi and jumped into it.Nervously，he told the driver to speed up and dropped him off at the police station.With the driver driving fast，leaving the young man’s shouts and the loud noise of the alarm far behind，Arthur felt a little at ease.
The taxi stopped in front of the police station and Arthur jumped off with the suitcase，running to the police office.He handed it to a policeman and reported what had happened.Arthur insisted that the suitcase be opened to make sure the money in it was not lost.Much to Arthur’s surprise，there was no money except some clothes and many books.Immediately，Arthur realized that he mistook the young man for the bank thief.As a result，he had to return the suitcase to the young man and apologize to him.What a funny thing it was for Arthur!

第二部分 阅读(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A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
As you slowly rid your diet of junk food and sweets，you’ll notice a change: you actually start to like those healthy foods that you once refused.And as you start fueling your body with nutrients and noticing how much better you feel，there’s a good chance you’ll lose weight，too.Here’s how your new healthy eating habits are helping you drop pounds.
Drinking water
Finally you decided to change those Diet Cokes for water? It’s a good decision: drinking more water helps keep your skin and other cells healthy and functioning properly，and drinking enough water keeps you from feeling lethargic(没精打采的) and tired.Your new water habit is great for your waistline as well: drinking water helps prevent overeating.
Eat more fruits and vegetables
Your new weekend’s to-do list that includes a trip to the farmers’ market to stock(贮备) up on vegetables for the week isn’t just helping you eat more disease-fighting nutrients；loading up on produce is a smart weight-loss strategy.Fruits and vegetables are low-cal high-fiber(低卡高纤维) food to stay satisfied and feel full longer.
Cooking at home
Healthy eating means cooking at home more since you’re able to see what exactly is going into your food and control the amount of salt，sugar，and fat in it.Not only does this ensure you’re eating the nutrients you need，but you’ll also save major calories from giving up the large buttery portions(比例)found in many restaurants.If you’re new to cooking and need some tips，just surf our page and read our advice on how to be a healthy cook.

Football star Jason Brown retired abruptly from the NFL(美国国家橄榄球大联盟) in 2012 in order to deal with something bigger than anything he’d faced on a football field: sweet potatoes.
Brown，then 29，moved with his wife，Tay，and their children from Missouri，where he’d played with the St.Louis Rams，back home to North Carolina，where he bought 1,000 acres in Louisburg.Overnight，he went from a football star to a family farmer.“For most people，it doesn’t make sense—why would you leave an awesome NFL career？” he says.
But Brown wasn’t going to become just any farmer.He would give away nearly everything he grew.“I didn’t feel I was just supposed to use my millions to buy food and donate it.I had to be out there doing the work and leading the way，” he says.
This radical step came to him one day when he was struck by a feeling that he had a purpose beyond sports.“Farming chose me；it was my calling in life，” he says.
Only one problem：Jason didn’t know the first thing about farming.So he did what all beginners do today—watched videos on the Internet.Then he partnered with another local farm that helped him plant fields of sweet potatoes.He named his land First Fruits Farm.
In the early fall of 2014，the first harvest was ready.Fifty pickup trucks arrived at the farm and loaded up 120,000 pounds to distribute locally.In 2015，First Fruits Farm expanded its sweet potato donations to food banks across eastern North Carolina.
Jason uses his unusual story to show local youth what it takes to grow food from start to finish.“They get that food doesn’t just magically appear in the grocery store or restaurants，” he says.
语篇解读 本文主要介绍了足球明星Jason Brown。他离开很棒的球员生涯而成为一个农民，想用自己的方式去帮助那些有需要的人。
24．What did most people think of Brown’s decision to retire from the NFL?
A．They weren’t satisfied with it.
B．They couldn’t understand it.
C．They worried about it.
D．They disapproved of it.
答案 B
解析 细节理解题。根据第二段最后一句中的“For most people，it doesn’t make sense—why would you leave an awesome NFL career？”可知，当他退役时，大部分人都不理解他的决定。故选B。
25．What does the underlined word “radical” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A．Easy. B．Slow.
C．Great. D．Careful.
答案 C
解析 词义猜测题。根据倒数第二段可知，Brown的公益事业取得了成功，说明此处画线单词所在句意为：一天这伟大的一步来到他身边……。故选C。

A．From books.
B．From the Internet.
C．By practicing on a local farm.
D．By attending beginner training classes.
答案 B

C．Ambitious and sensitive.
D．Considerate and optimistic.
答案 A
解析 推理判断题。文章的前半部分讲他勇敢退役后开创新事业；倒数第二段讲他的无偿捐赠，所以他是个勇敢而慷慨的人。故选A。
C
We can make mistakes at any age.Some mistakes we make are about money.But most mistakes are about people.“Did Jerry really care when I broke up with Helen？” “When I got that great job，did Jim really feel good about it，as a friend? Or did he envy my luck？” “And Paul—why didn’t I pick up that he was friendly just because I had a car？” When we look back，doubts like these can make us feel bad.But when we look back，it’s too late.
Why do we go wrong about our friends or our enemies? Sometimes what people say hides their real meaning.And if we don’t really listen，we will miss the feeling behind the words.Suppose someone tells you，“You’re a lucky dog.” Is he really on your side? If he says, “You’re a lucky guy.” or “You’re a lucky girl.” that’s being friendly.But lucky “dog”？ There’s a bit of envy in those words.Maybe he doesn’t see it himself.But bringing in the “dog” bit puts you down a little.What he may be saying is that he doesn’t think you deserve your luck.
“Just think of all the things you have to be thankful for” is another noise that says one thing and means another.It could mean that the speaker is trying to get you to see your problem as part of your life as a whole.But is he? Wrapped up in this phrase is the thought that your problem isn’t important.It’s telling you to think of all the starving people in the world when you haven’t got a date for Saturday night.
How can you tell the real meaning behind someone’s words? One way is to take a good look at the person talking.Do his words fit the way he looks? Does what he says agree with the tone of voice? His posture? The look in his eyes? Stop and think.The minute you spend thinking about the real meaning of what people say to you may save another mistake.
语篇解读 在日常交往中，我们经常会误解他人。文章告诉我们在与他人交流的过程中要观察别人说话的表情、语调、姿态和眼神等，通过这些观察可以辨别出别人的真正想法。
28．This passage is mainly about .
A．how to interpret what people say
B．what to do when you listen to others talking
C．how to avoid mistakes when you communicate with people
D．Why we go wrong with people sometimes
答案 C
解析 主旨大意题。文章前三句“We can make mistakes at any age.Some mistakes we make are about money.But most mistakes are about people.”告诉我们经常犯的错误都是关于人的错误，文章接下来的部分告诉我们如何辨别别人的言外之意。也就是说本文主要告诉我们在与他人交流的过程中如何避免出现错误。故C项正确。
29．According to the author，the reason why we go wrong about our friends is that .
A．we fail to listen carefully when they talk
B．people tend to be annoyed when we check what they say
C．people usually state one thing but mean another
D．we tend to doubt what our friends say
答案 C
解析 推理判断题。根据第二段前三句可知，人们所说的话会隐藏他们真实的含义，如果我们没有真正理解，我们可能就会错过真实的含义，这也是我们为什么会和朋友产生误解的原因。故C项正确。
30．In the second paragraph，the underlined word “it” refers to “ ”．
A．being friendly B．a lucky dog
C．a bit of envy D．your luck
答案 C
解析 代词指代题。根据第二段中的“There’s a bit of envy in those words.Maybe he doesn’t see it himself.”可知，在别人用lucky dog形容你是幸运儿的时候，实际上是有点嫉妒的含义的，但是他自己并没有感觉到这一点。句中的it就是指前句中的“a bit of envy”，故C项正确。
31．When we listen to a person talking，the most important thing for us to do is .
A．notice the way the person is talking
B．take a good look at the person talking
C．mind his tone，his posture and the look in his eyes
D．examine the real meaning of what he says based on his manner，his tone and his posture
答案 D
解析 推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知，作者建议我们观察别人说话的表情、语调、姿态和眼神等，通过观察这些可以辨别出别人的真正想法。故D项正确。
D
It used to be mostly the military(军队) that used small，unpiloted aircraft，called “drones”．The little planes were very costly.But as they have dropped in price more people have begun to use them.Rescue workers and farmers are among the new users.Moviemakers are using drones to film from the sky.Historians use them when they explore ancient buildings.Rescue workers use them to look for people.And now farmers are using them to watch over their crops.
Romain Faroux is a French businessman who starts companies.His father was a farmer.He believed drones could help farmers.He helped create a company that developed a small drone that could be controlled by people on the ground.They called it “Agridrone”．It uses a special “optical sensor” to examine crops.He says the technology used is similar to that used by smartphones—except it has wings.
A computer program directs the drone to fly over the crops.The sensor on the drone records four different colored “bands” of sunlight that are reflected off the crops.
Jean-Baptiste Bruggeman is a farmer.He says the drone flies over his crops at different times of the season.And this provides a lot of information about his crops.The drone pictures show him the exact amount of fertilizer the crops need.It also shows exactly where the fertilizer is needed.Some areas of a field may need more than others.
As a result，Mr Bruggeman says there is reduced nitrogen from the fertilizer after the harvest.This helps nature.Romain Faroux says farmers use information gathered by the Agridrone to place fertilizer only in areas where it was needed.Before they used the drones，farmers would put the same amount of fertilizer everywhere.
Drones also save time because farmers can examine up to three hectares in about a minute.
语篇解读 本文是一篇说明文。现在无人机在生活中使用的范围越来越广。法国的农民们已经开始使用无人机来监控农作物。
32．The first paragraph is mainly about .
A．the expensive cost of drones
B．the fast development of drones
C．the wide use of drones
D．the urgent need of drones
答案 C
解析 段落大意题。通读第一段内容可知，过去军事上使用一种小型的、无人驾驶的无人机。这种无人机很昂贵。但是随着价格的下降，更多的人开始使用无人机，搜救人员和农民是无人机新的用户群体等，说明了无人机的广泛应用。
33．What do we know about Agridrone?
A．It records different-colored bands of sunlight.
B．It flies over the crops with a computer.
C．It absorbs the sunlight reflected off the crops.
D．It is like a smartphone with wings.
答案 D
解析 细节理解题。根据第二段的最后一句“He says the technology used is similar to that used by smartphones—except it has wings.”可知，它像一个有翅膀的智能手机。

·Bring you a good feeling.
If you volunteer your time to help others，you’re sharing your blessings with those less fortunate，which is a wonderful gift to give! You’ll most likely return home after volunteering with a smile on your face. 37

When you help others，you may be helping yourself to a heightened self-esteem.A positive result for your good deeds enables you to feel pride in your accomplishments. 38
· 39

第二节 (满分25分)
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。续写的词数应为150左右。
A funny thing happened to Arthur when he was on the way to work one day.As he walked along Park Avenue near the First National Bank，he heard the sound of someone trying to start a car.He tried again and again but couldn’t get the car moving.Arthur turned and looked inside at the face of a young man who looked worried.Arthur stopped and asked，“It looks like you have got a problem，” Arthur said.
“I am afraid so.I am in a big hurry and I can’t start my car.”
“Is there something I can do to help？” Arthur asked.The young man looked at the two suitcases in the back seat and then said，“Thanks.If you are sure it wouldn’t be too much trouble，you could help me get these two suitcases into a taxi.”
“No trouble at all，I’d be glad to help.”
The young man got out and took one of the suitcases from the back seat.After placing it on the ground，he turned to get the other one.Just as Arthur picked up the first suitcase and started walking he heard the loud noise of an alarm.
It was from the bank.There had been a robbery.
Park Avenue had been quiet a moment before.Now the air was filled with the sound of the alarm and the shouts of people running from all directions.Cars stopped and the passengers joined the crowd in front of the bank.People asked each other，“What happened？” But everyone had a different answer.
Arthur，still carrying the suitcase，turned to look at the bank and walked right into the young woman in front of him.
She looked at the suitcase and then at him.Arthur was surprised，“Why is she looking at me like that？” He thought.“The suitcase! She thinks I am the bank thief！”
Arthur looked around at the crowd of people.He became frightened，and without another thought，he started to run.
Paragraph 1：
As he was running，Arthur heard the young man shouting behind，“Stop，stop！”
Paragraph 2：
The taxi stopped in front of the police station and Arthur jumped off with the suitcase，running to the police office.
参考答案
As he was running，Arthur heard the young man shouting behind，“Stop，stop！” So frightened was Arthur that he ran faster with that suitcase.When he rushed to Park Avenue，he stopped a taxi and jumped into it.Nervously，he told the driver to speed up and dropped him off at the police station.With the driver driving fast，leaving the young man’s shouts and the loud noise of the alarm far behind，Arthur felt a little at ease.
The taxi stopped in front of the police station and Arthur jumped off with the suitcase，running to the police office.He handed it to a policeman and reported what had happened.Arthur insisted that the suitcase be opened to make sure the money in it was not lost.Much to Arthur’s surprise，there was no money except some clothes and many books.Immediately，Arthur realized that he mistook the young man for the bank thief.As a result，he had to return the suitcase to the young man and apologize to him.What a funny thing it was for Arthur!
