“Can you imagine?” Diébédo Francis Kéré said to NPR, “I was born in Burkina Faso, a little village where there was no school. And my father wanted me to learn how to read and write very simply because then I could translate or read him his letters.”
The first Black winner of the Pritzker Architecture Prize was as surprised as anyone else to be selected for the field’s most famous prize. Many architects had openly supposed that 2022 would be Sir David Adjaye’s year, who is best known for designing notable buildings as the Nobel Peace Center in Norway. Kéré, who is based in Berlin but centers much of his practice in Africa, has been—until now—far lesser known, with buildings that include primary schools and a healthcare clinic.
When he was twenty, in 1985,Kéré earned a scholarship to study carpentry in Berlin. But he also attended night school and was admitted to Technische Universität Berlin, from which he graduated in 2004 with an advanced degree in architecture. He was still a student when he designed and built the innovative Gando Primary School.
Kéré’s architectural practice was inspired by his own experience attending school with around 100 other children in a region with temperatures over 100 F. “It’s very hot inside. And there was no light, while outside, the sunlight was abundant. I think, one day I should make it better. I was thinking about space, about room, about how I could feel better.”
In his designs for Gando Primary School and Naaba Belem Goumma Secondary School, Kéré drew on traditional building materials such as local clay mixed with concrete, and emphasized shade and shadows, making spaces bright enough and letting air in, and thus reducing the need for air conditioning. He wanted the buildings to evoke the sense of an oasis (绿洲), a place for many children, to be happy and learn how to read and write.
24. Why did the Pritzker Architecture Prize of 2022 come out as a surprise?
A. Because it is the most famous prize.
B. Because the winner only designs schools.
C. Because Kéré wasn’t first selected as a candidate.
D. Because another competitor was more famous.
25. What inspired Kéré’s architecture work?
A. His academic training in Berlin. B. Hardship in his early childhood.
C. An architectural contest. D. His experience traveling abroad.
26. Which of the following best describes Kéré as an architect?
A. Creative and universal. B. Determined and ambitious.
C. Caring and practical. D. Devoted and productive.
27. What can be inferred about the schools designed by Kéré?
A. They only use traditional materials. B. They are well-lit and cool.
C. They need no air-conditioning. D. They are built on oases.
C
Time to load up some popular games: new research indicates pigs possess the mental capability to play video games. The study, published in Frontiers in Psychology, tested the ability of four pigs (Hamlet, Omelette, Ebony and Ivory) to play a simple joystick (操纵杆) game with their noses, moving a cursor (光标) to four targets on the screen. Although the animals didn’t demonstrate the skills to win a round any time, they did show an understanding of some elementary games. Performing well not by chance, the pigs appeared to recognize the movement of the cursor was controlled by the joystick. The fact that they did so well despite a lack of flexible fingers is “extraordinary”, according to the researchers.
“It is no small achievement for an animal to grasp the concept that the behaviour they are performing is having an effect elsewhere. That pigs can do this to any degree should give us pause as to what else they are capable of learning and how such learning may impact them, “said Purdue University’s Dr Candace Croney, the study’s lead author.
Researchers also noted that while the pigs could be taught to play the game using food as positive motivation, they also responded well to social interaction. In fact, when the game was made more challenging and the pigs became unwilling to participate in it, “only oral encouragement by the experimenter” would see training continue.
These findings are the latest to highlight the intelligence of pigs. Not only have they been shown to use mirrors to find hidden food, but studies have also demonstrated how pigs can be taught to “come” and “sit” after oral commands.
As with any sentient (有感觉力的) beings, how we interact with pigs and what we do to them impacts and matters to them. We therefore have a moral duty to understand how pigs acquire information, and what they are capable of learning and remembering, because it ultimately offers the potential for how they understand their interactions with us and their environments.
28. What can be learned from Paragraph 1?
A. The pigs sometimes won the video games.
B. The pigs operated joysticks with their noses.
C. The pigs competed with each other in the games.
D. The pigs sometimes performed well accidentally.
29. What does the underlined phrase “give us pause” refer to?
A. Stop us from advancing. B. Affect us in learning.
C. Make us think seriously. D. Force us to train pigs better.
30. What made researchers believe pigs socially interacted well?
A. Their being inspired by human words. B. Their being driven by food.
C. Their being willing to keep trying. D. Their being motivated by challenges.
31. Which of the following could be the best title?
A. Smart Pigs: Best Animal Players B. Flexible Noses: Fun Games
C. Oral Commands: Pig Learners D. Pig Players: Learning Potential
D
Video conferencing has been around for more than 20 years. Until the COVID-19 pandemic, though, you would find that many people needing to attend a meeting remotely would be calling from a real conference room full of their teammates. Today, we’re routinely holding video conferences that are 100% virtual. And this is creating a problem that technology can’t fix.
The problem is us, specifically the fact that we haven’t evolved socially to the point where we can bear much separation. So much of our well-being and work productivity is decided on how close we are physically. The removal of that for any period of time can be severely damaging. One surprising victim of social distancing is laughter.
Normally people laugh about 18 times per day. And 97% of that time we’re laughing with others — we are 30 times more likely to laugh with others than to laugh alone. Think about it: how often when you and your friends laugh at something that is actually funny? Research shows that 80% of what people laugh at is really not that funny.
So why do people laugh? They laugh in order to laugh with others. Just as everyone starts yawning when just one person yawns, most people can’t help but laugh when those around them do. This is why TV comedy shows often use prerecorded laugh tracks.
Laughing in response to other people’s laughing is not just a behavioral phenomenon. When we laugh, our body produces two key chemicals: endorphin which helps relieve pain and sets off feelings of pleasure, and dopamine which can improve learning, motivation and attention. In fact, studies show that people can stand 15% more pain simply by laughing for a few minutes beforehand. Laughter is also associated with higher motivation and productivity at work.
In today’s home-alone, virtual-team world, this is exactly what you as a team leader should be doing: for your team members to stay healthy and productive, you need to get them to laugh more and stress less.
32. What is the problem mentioned in the first two paragraphs?
A. A distant relationship. B. Unexpected social evolution.
C. Decreased laughter. D. Removed social distance.
33. What can be inferred from the article?
A. Laughing alone is normal. B. Laughing is for fun.
C. Laughing starts with yawning. D. Laughing comes more in groups.
34. What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. The motivation behind laughter. B. The chemicals regarding laughter.
C. The mechanism of laughter. D. The significance of laughter.
35. What would the author most probably discuss next?
A. How to boost laughter. B. How to better a team.
C. How to reduce stress. D. How to increase productivity.

No Time
With a broad smile on her lips, 15-year old Sirin rushed to her mom to show off her new painting. But mom raised her eyebrows with eyes wide open, and spoke in an impatient tone, “No time, baby. Right now I am busy with an important talk. Just wait for some time,OK?”
Holding her oil painting, she frowned (皱眉), and then searched for her dad.
“Dad, see what I have done,” Sirin announced aloud in a thrilling voice. Her dad turned around while adjusting his tie, grinned at her, and showed his thumbs up!
Immediately, blowing her two cheeks, Sirin replied angrily, “Dad, you haven’t seen it yet.”
He smiled at her saying, “No time, baby. I will see it later.” He just patted her back lovingly, kissed her forehead, and rushed for his office.
She was not a kid to be pleased with simple gesture or smile. She stood there for a few seconds,and then stormed off to her own bedroom. Hot air was blowing from her nostrils (鼻孔); her face turned into apple red. She threw the painting on the table, slammed (把……砰地关上) the door and threw herself on her bed.
“Why is everybody so busy?” She recalled thousands of incidents that hurt her in pre-school, middle school and even in high school too! She assumed at least her own family members would give some values to her thoughts, but they were no exception. Unconsciously, her eyes were filled with tears.
The knocking sound on the door put a sudden brake to her thought. Her mom was calling her for dinner. Sirin deliberately came late to join them. She kept silent and didn’t look at anyone, scratching the table mat with her nail. Her mom was puzzled at the unusual behavior. Suddenly, the morning incident clicked in her mind. Softly, she asked, “Honey, did I do anything wrong?”
Para 1: At this very moment, Sirin could no longer resist her anger.__________________
________________________________________________________________________

Para 2: When back from school the next day, Sirin was surprised to see her beautifully-decorated paining on the wall______________________________________________________________

“Can you imagine?” Diébédo Francis Kéré said to NPR, “I was born in Burkina Faso, a little village where there was no school. And my father wanted me to learn how to read and write very simply because then I could translate or read him his letters.”
The first Black winner of the Pritzker Architecture Prize was as surprised as anyone else to be selected for the field’s most famous prize. Many architects had openly supposed that 2022 would be Sir David Adjaye’s year, who is best known for designing notable buildings as the Nobel Peace Center in Norway. Kéré, who is based in Berlin but centers much of his practice in Africa, has been—until now—far lesser known, with buildings that include primary schools and a healthcare clinic.
When he was twenty, in 1985,Kéré earned a scholarship to study carpentry in Berlin. But he also attended night school and was admitted to Technische Universität Berlin, from which he graduated in 2004 with an advanced degree in architecture. He was still a student when he designed and built the innovative Gando Primary School.
Kéré’s architectural practice was inspired by his own experience attending school with around 100 other children in a region with temperatures over 100 F. “It’s very hot inside. And there was no light, while outside, the sunlight was abundant. I think, one day I should make it better. I was thinking about space, about room, about how I could feel better.”
In his designs for Gando Primary School and Naaba Belem Goumma Secondary School, Kéré drew on traditional building materials such as local clay mixed with concrete, and emphasized shade and shadows, making spaces bright enough and letting air in, and thus reducing the need for air conditioning. He wanted the buildings to evoke the sense of an oasis (绿洲), a place for many children, to be happy and learn how to read and write.
24. Why did the Pritzker Architecture Prize of 2022 come out as a surprise?
A. Because it is the most famous prize.
B. Because the winner only designs schools.
C. Because Kéré wasn’t first selected as a candidate.
D. Because another competitor was more famous.
25. What inspired Kéré’s architecture work?
A. His academic training in Berlin. B. Hardship in his early childhood.
C. An architectural contest. D. His experience traveling abroad.
26. Which of the following best describes Kéré as an architect?
A. Creative and universal. B. Determined and ambitious.
C. Caring and practical. D. Devoted and productive.
27. What can be inferred about the schools designed by Kéré?
A. They only use traditional materials. B. They are well-lit and cool.
C. They need no air-conditioning. D. They are built on oases.
【答案】24. D 25. B 26. C 27. B
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇新闻报道。文章介绍了Diébédo Francis Kéré在2022年成为第一位获得普利兹克建筑奖的黑人,童年时艰苦的学校条件激励他未来要为孩子们创造良好的学习环境。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“The first Black winner of the Pritzker Architecture Prize was as surprised as anyone else to be selected for the field’s most famous prize. Many architects had openly supposed that 2022 would be Sir David Adjaye’s year, who is best known for designing notable buildings as the Nobel Peace Center in Norway.Kéré, who is based in Berlin but centers much of his practice in Africa, has been—until now—far lesser known, with buildings that include primary schools and a healthcare clinic. (第一位获得普利兹克建筑奖的黑人和其他人一样,对被选为该领域最著名的奖项感到惊讶。许多建筑师曾公开认为,2022年将是大卫·阿贾耶爵士的年度,他最出名的是设计了挪威的诺贝尔和平中心等著名建筑。Kéré,住在柏林,但他的大部分业务都在非洲,一直是——直到现在——很少为人所知,他的建筑包括一些小学和一个医疗诊所。)”可知,业内人士对于Sir David Adjaye这位建筑家获奖呼声颇高,相比之下本文主人公的主要作品都在非洲且名气不大,故选D项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Kéré’s architectural practice was inspired by his own experience attending school with around 100 other children in a region with temperatures over 100 F.‘It’s very hot inside. And there was no light, while outside, the sunlight was abundant. I think, one day I should make it better. I was thinking about space, about room, about how I could feel better.’ (Kéré的建筑实践灵感来自于他自己在温度超过100华氏度的地区与大约100名其他孩子一起上学的经历。‘里面很热。没有光,而外面阳光充足。我想,总有一天我会做得更好。我在想空间,空间,想着怎样才能感觉好点’)”可知,Kéré童年时经历的艰苦的学校条件激励他未来要为孩子们创造良好的学习环境。故选B项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段最后两句“I think, one day I should make it better. I was thinking about space, about room, about how I could feel better. (我想,总有一天我会做得更好。我在想余地,空间,想着怎样才能感觉好点’)”,以及第五段“In his designs for Gando Primary School and Naaba Belem Goumma Secondary School, Kéré drew on traditional building materials such as local clay mixed with concrete, and emphasized shade and shadows, making spaces bright enough and letting air in, and thus reducing the need for air conditioning. He wanted the buildings to evoke the sense of an oasis (绿洲), a place for many children, to be happy and learn how to read and write. (在他的Gando小学和Naaba Belem Goumma中学的设计中,Kéré借鉴了传统建筑材料,如当地粘土与混凝土混合,并强调阴影,使空间足够明亮,让空气进入,从而减少对空调的需求。他希望这些建筑能唤起一种绿洲的感觉,为许多孩子提供一个快乐、学习读写的地方。)”可知,Kéré 设计的初衷是关心关爱孩子们的学习环境,在设计中,他非常注重因地制宜,使建筑更有实用性,可以看出Kéré关心他人且很务实。故选C项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的第一句“In his designs for Gando Primary School and Naaba Belem Goumma Secondary School, Kéré drew on traditional building materials such as local clay mixed with concrete, and emphasized shade and shadows, making spaces bright enough and letting air in, and thus reducing the need for air conditioning. (在他的Gando小学和Naaba Belem Goumma中学的设计中,Kéré借鉴了传统建筑材料,如当地粘土与混凝土混合,并强调阴影,使空间足够明亮,让空气进入,从而减少对空调的需求。)”可知,Kéré 设计的学校,采光和通风都良好,故选B项。

Time to load up some popular games: new research indicates pigs possess the mental capability to play video games. The study, published in Frontiers in Psychology, tested the ability of four pigs (Hamlet, Omelette, Ebony and Ivory) to play a simple joystick (操纵杆) game with their noses, moving a cursor (光标) to four targets on the screen. Although the animals didn’t demonstrate the skills to win a round any time, they did show an understanding of some elementary games. Performing well not by chance, the pigs appeared to recognize the movement of the cursor was controlled by the joystick. The fact that they did so well despite a lack of flexible fingers is “extraordinary”, according to the researchers.
“It is no small achievement for an animal to grasp the concept that the behaviour they are performing is having an effect elsewhere. That pigs can do this to any degree should give us pause as to what else they are capable of learning and how such learning may impact them, “said Purdue University’s Dr Candace Croney, the study’s lead author.
Researchers also noted that while the pigs could be taught to play the game using food as positive motivation, they also responded well to social interaction. In fact, when the game was made more challenging and the pigs became unwilling to participate in it, “only oral encouragement by the experimenter” would see training continue.
These findings are the latest to highlight the intelligence of pigs. Not only have they been shown to use mirrors to find hidden food, but studies have also demonstrated how pigs can be taught to “come” and “sit” after oral commands.
As with any sentient (有感觉力的) beings, how we interact with pigs and what we do to them impacts and matters to them. We therefore have a moral duty to understand how pigs acquire information, and what they are capable of learning and remembering, because it ultimately offers the potential for how they understand their interactions with us and their environments.
28. What can be learned from Paragraph 1?
A. The pigs sometimes won the video games.
B. The pigs operated joysticks with their noses.
C. The pigs competed with each other in the games.
D. The pigs sometimes performed well accidentally.
29. What does the underlined phrase “give us pause” refer to?
A. Stop us from advancing. B. Affect us in learning.
C. Make us think seriously. D. Force us to train pigs better.
30. What made researchers believe pigs socially interacted well?
A. Their being inspired by human words. B. Their being driven by food.
C. Their being willing to keep trying. D. Their being motivated by challenges.
31. Which of the following could be the best title?
A. Smart Pigs: Best Animal Players B. Flexible Noses: Fun Games
C. Oral Commands: Pig Learners D. Pig Players: Learning Potential
【答案】28. B 29. C 30. A 31. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述猪经过人们的训练和与人互动后,可以用鼻子玩电动,能够听懂人的指令,从而说明猪有很强的学习潜力。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The study, published in Frontiers in Psychology, tested the ability of four pigs (Hamlet, Omelette, Ebony and Ivory) to play a simple joystick (操纵杆) game with their noses, moving a cursor (光标) to four targets on the screen. (这项研究发表在《心理学前沿》上,测试了四只猪(哈姆雷特、煎蛋、乌木和象牙)用鼻子玩简单的操纵杆游戏的能力,将光标移动到屏幕上的四个目标上。)”可知,第一段主要介绍猪能够够用鼻子操作操纵杆,故选B。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段“It is no small achievement for an animal to grasp the concept that the behaviour they are performing is having an effect elsewhere. (对于动物来说,能理解它们正在实施的一个行为可以在别处产生影响的概念并不是小成就。)”及“what else they are capable of learning and how such learning may impact them (他们还能学习什么,以及这种学习如何影响他们)”可知,猪能够够用鼻子操作操纵杆,这不是一个小成就,值得我们认真思考,看看猪还能学习什么,以及这种学习如何影响他们。故推知give us pause表示“让我们认真思考”,与Make us think seriously意义一致,故选C。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Researchers also noted that while the pigs could be taught to play the game using food as positive motivation, they also responded well to social interaction. In fact, when the game was made more challenging and the pigs became unwilling to participate in it, “only oral encouragement by the experimenter” would see training continue. (研究人员还指出,虽然可以用食物作为积极动机来教猪玩游戏,但它们对社交互动的反应也很好。事实上,当游戏变得更具挑战性并且猪变得不愿意参与时,“只有实验者的口头鼓励”才能使训练继续进行。)”可知,因为实验者的口头鼓励可以使猪参与训练,所以研究人员相信猪对社交互动的反应很好。故推知猪受到人类话语的启发使研究人员相信猪的社交互动很好,故选A。
31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Performing well not by chance, the pigs appeared to recognize the movement of the cursor was controlled by the joystick. The fact that they did so well despite a lack of flexible fingers is “extraordinary”, according to the researchers. (表现良好并非偶然,猪似乎意识到光标的移动是由操纵杆控制的。据研究人员称,尽管缺乏灵活的手指,但他们做得如此之好,这是“不可思议的”。)”及第四段“These findings are the latest to highlight the intelligence of pigs. Not only have they been shown to use mirrors to find hidden food, but studies have also demonstrated how pigs can be taught to “come” and “sit” after oral commands. (这些发现是最新发现的,突出了猪的智力。他们不仅被证明使用镜子来寻找隐藏的食物,而且研究还证明了如何在口头命令后教猪“过来”和“坐下”。)”可知,文章主要讲述猪经过人们的训练和与人互动后,可以用鼻子玩电动,能够听懂人的指令,说明猪有很强的学习潜力。所以文章的标题应是Pig Players: Learning Potential(猪玩家:学习的潜力),故选D。
D
Video conferencing has been around for more than 20 years. Until the COVID-19 pandemic, though, you would find that many people needing to attend a meeting remotely would be calling from a real conference room full of their teammates. Today, we’re routinely holding video conferences that are 100% virtual. And this is creating a problem that technology can’t fix.
The problem is us, specifically the fact that we haven’t evolved socially to the point where we can bear much separation. So much of our well-being and work productivity is decided on how close we are physically. The removal of that for any period of time can be severely damaging. One surprising victim of social distancing is laughter.
Normally people laugh about 18 times per day. And 97% of that time we’re laughing with others — we are 30 times more likely to laugh with others than to laugh alone. Think about it: how often when you and your friends laugh at something that is actually funny? Research shows that 80% of what people laugh at is really not that funny.
So why do people laugh? They laugh in order to laugh with others. Just as everyone starts yawning when just one person yawns, most people can’t help but laugh when those around them do. This is why TV comedy shows often use prerecorded laugh tracks.
Laughing in response to other people’s laughing is not just a behavioral phenomenon. When we laugh, our body produces two key chemicals: endorphin which helps relieve pain and sets off feelings of pleasure, and dopamine which can improve learning, motivation and attention. In fact, studies show that people can stand 15% more pain simply by laughing for a few minutes beforehand. Laughter is also associated with higher motivation and productivity at work.
In today’s home-alone, virtual-team world, this is exactly what you as a team leader should be doing: for your team members to stay healthy and productive, you need to get them to laugh more and stress less.
32. What is the problem mentioned in the first two paragraphs?
A. A distant relationship. B. Unexpected social evolution.
C. Decreased laughter. D. Removed social distance.
33. What can be inferred from the article?
A. Laughing alone is normal. B. Laughing is for fun.
C. Laughing starts with yawning. D. Laughing comes more in groups.
34. What is Paragraph 5 mainly about?
A. The motivation behind laughter. B. The chemicals regarding laughter.
C. The mechanism of laughter. D. The significance of laughter.
35. What would the author most probably discuss next?
A. How to boost laughter. B. How to better a team.
C. How to reduce stress. D. How to increase productivity.
【答案】32. C 33. D 34. D 35. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了笑重要性。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“Today, we’re routinely holding video conferences that are 100% virtual .And this is creating a problem that technology can’t fix.(今天,我们经常举行100%虚拟的视频会议。这就产生了一个技术无法解决的问题)”和第二段的“The problem is us, specifically the fact that we haven’t evolved socially to the point where we can bear much separation.(问题出在我们自己身上,尤其是我们的社交能力还没有进化到可以承受分离的程度)”和“One surprising victim of social distancing is laughter.(社交距离的一个令人惊讶的受害者是笑声)”可知,前两段提到的问题是笑声减少了。故选C。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段的“Just as everyone starts yawning when just one person yawns, most people can’t help but laugh when those around them do.(就像当只有一个人打哈欠时,每个人都会打哈欠一样,当周围的人笑时,大多数人都会忍不住笑)”可推断,成群的人笑得更多。故选D。
【34题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第五段的“When we laugh, our body produces two key chemicals: endorphin which helps relieve pain and sets off feelings of pleasure, and dopamine which can improve learning, motivation and attention. In fact, studies show that people can stand 15% more pain simply by laughing for a few minutes beforehand. Laughter is also associated with higher motivation and productivity at work.(当我们笑的时候,我们的身体会产生两种关键的化学物质:内啡肽,它可以帮助缓解疼痛并引发愉悦感,还有多巴胺,它可以提高学习能力、动力和注意力。事实上,研究表明,仅仅提前几分钟笑一下,人们就能多忍受15%)”可知,本段主要介绍是笑声的重要性。故选D。
【35题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“In today’s home-alone, virtual-team world, this is exactly what you as a team leader should be doing: for your team members to stay healthy and productive, you need to get them to laugh more and stress less.(在今天这个独自在家、虚拟团队的世界里,这正是你作为一个团队领导者应该做的:为了让你的团队成员保持健康和高效,你需要让他们多笑,少压力)”可推断,作者接下来最有可能讨论如何增加笑。故选A。

No Time
With a broad smile on her lips, 15-year old Sirin rushed to her mom to show off her new painting. But mom raised her eyebrows with eyes wide open, and spoke in an impatient tone, “No time, baby. Right now I am busy with an important talk. Just wait for some time,OK?”
Holding her oil painting, she frowned (皱眉), and then searched for her dad.
“Dad, see what I have done,” Sirin announced aloud in a thrilling voice. Her dad turned around while adjusting his tie, grinned at her, and showed his thumbs up!
Immediately, blowing her two cheeks, Sirin replied angrily, “Dad, you haven’t seen it yet.”
He smiled at her saying, “No time, baby. I will see it later.” He just patted her back lovingly, kissed her forehead, and rushed for his office.
She was not a kid to be pleased with simple gesture or smile. She stood there for a few seconds,and then stormed off to her own bedroom. Hot air was blowing from her nostrils (鼻孔); her face turned into apple red. She threw the painting on the table, slammed (把……砰地关上) the door and threw herself on her bed.
“Why is everybody so busy?” She recalled thousands of incidents that hurt her in pre-school, middle school and even in high school too! She assumed at least her own family members would give some values to her thoughts, but they were no exception. Unconsciously, her eyes were filled with tears.
The knocking sound on the door put a sudden brake to her thought. Her mom was calling her for dinner. Sirin deliberately came late to join them. She kept silent and didn’t look at anyone, scratching the table mat with her nail. Her mom was puzzled at the unusual behavior. Suddenly, the morning incident clicked in her mind. Softly, she asked, “Honey, did I do anything wrong?”
Para 1: At this very moment, Sirin could no longer resist her anger.__________________
________________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________________
Para 2: When back from school the next day, Sirin was surprised to see her beautifully-decorated paining on the wall______________________________________________________________
______________________________________________________________________________
_________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】At this very moment, Sirin could no longer resist her anger. “Why is everybody so busy?” she roared, tears streaming down. She assumed that her mom and dad would feel proud of her great talent, would appreciate her painting but she was disgusted with everybody having “no time” for her. “I hate you!” She screamed, grabbed the painting on the table and tore it in half. Shocked, mom threw her arms around her tightly, announcing regretfully and firmly, “Baby, I am so sorry! I promise this mistake will not be repeated.”
When back from school the next day, Sirin was surprised to see her beautifully-decorated painting on the wall. It was beautifully framed and just below the painting, it was written “We are so proud of you, our little angle!” On seeing it, she burst out crying. She ran to her mom and hugged her tightly as well, fully aware of her mom’s love. Recalling her mom’s stress from work and daily life, she was regretting her previous behavior. She ducked her head, apologizing, “Sorry, mom!” It dawned on them that though everything came and went, mutual understanding would stay forever in their family.
【解析】
【分析】本篇书面表达属于读后续写。
【详解】1.认真读懂所给提供的材料:15岁的瑟琳嘴角挂着灿烂的笑容,跑到爸爸妈妈面前炫耀她的新画作。但是爸爸妈妈并没有给予真正的关注和欣赏,而是不耐烦地表示没有时间。这让瑟琳非常地生气。
2.根据第一段首句At this very moment, Sirin could no longer resist her anger.(此时此刻,瑟琳再也无法抑制自己的愤怒)可以围绕瑟琳开始发泄自己的愤怒展开构思;根据第二段首句When back from school the next day, Sirin was surprised to see her beautifully-decorated painting on the wall.(第二天从学校回来的时候,瑟琳惊讶地看到墙上挂着她装饰得很漂亮的画)可以推知,爸爸妈妈可能意识到她们忽略了她的感受,所以把她的画装饰的很漂亮,并挂在了墙上。第二段可以围绕瑟琳与爸爸妈妈的进一步交流展开构思。
3.续写的语言要尽可能与原文的语言保持风格上的一致。文章时态以一般过去时为主。应使用自己熟悉的句型和短语进行写作,考生要注意尽可能使句子的表达形式多样化,适当的使用一些高级句式和高级词汇,以提高书面表达的档次和可读性。作文要层次清晰,要点全面,表达流畅,切合题干要求,句子结构准确,适当补充信息,使篇章结构连贯。
【点睛】范文内容完整,语言规范,语篇连贯,词数适当。作者在范文中使用了较多高级表达方式,如独立主格结构“Why is everybody so busy?” she roared, tears streaming down.形容词作状语、非谓语动词及宾语从句Shocked, mom threw her arms around her tightly, announcing regretfully and firmly, “Baby, I am so sorry! I promise this mistake will not be repeated.”让步状语从句It dawned on them that though everything came and went, mutual understanding would stay forever in their family.全文中没有中国式英语的句式,显示了很高的驾驭英语的能力。另外,文章思路清晰、层次分明,上下句转换自然,为文章增色添彩。
