A young Jewish girl begins a diary just as World War II is about to break out in Europe. She records the details of her daily life, but more than that. Eventually, the diary comes to a heartbreaking end with the girl shot to death by the Nazis. However, it’s not the story of Anne Frank. This is Renia’s Diary, a journal that was hidden for years in a safe box. Now it’s coming to light with the help of Renia’s sister and niece.
For a long time, Elizabeth didn’t even know that her older sister Renia had kept a diary as a teenager in Poland. Then suddenly one day in the 50s, Elizabeth got the diary and started to read it. She was totally stunned and couldn’t get very far. “It was too painful to read it,” Elizabeth recalls. “I just put it in the basement and didn’t think about it.”
Alexandra, Elizabeth’s daughter, grew up knowing about the locked diary. As Alexandra got older, she was more interested in it. “If I could read this diary, maybe I’ll explore some things from the past,” she thought.
She got the diary from its hiding place. When she read it, Alexandra was shocked. “It’s the description of a wonderful girl who showed great courage in terrible times. My aunt’s world comes to life as the diary shifts between a teenage girl’s daily life and the war.”
Elizabeth and her daughter Alexandra are excited that the diary will be published. “It is a story that needs to be heard now more than ever. We should never repeat the same types of racism(种族主义) and hate that lead to violence,” Alexandra says.
24．Why was Renia’s Dairy unknown to the world for so many years?
A．The story is not as famous as Anne Frank’s.
B．It was lost in the war and no one found it.
C．Alexandra was afraid to read it.
D．Renia’s sister kept it a secret.
25．What does the underlined word “stunned” mean in Paragraph 2?
A．Embarrassed. B．Bored.
C．Excited. D．Shocked.
26．Why was Alexandra so interested in Renia’s Diary?
A．She was curious about her aunt’s experience.
B．She wanted to comfort her mother.
C．She planned to publish her aunt’s dairy.
D．She decided to prove how strong Renia was.
27．What’s the best title of the passage?
A．A girl fighting against the racism and hate
B．Renia’s Diary is to come to light
C．Discovering the history of a Jewish family
D．A Jewish family in World War II

Christmas is a lovely time of year if you are lucky enough to be well, to have friends and family around you and to feel in control of your life. However, for many people it is a time that they are afraid of. As the nights draw in during the winter, many older people talk about how much more difficult it is to be on their own.
In a recent interview, Jacqueline Wilson expressed her concerns about children also feeling worried. But I was heartened by her suggestion in another interview that she hopes her books will reassure (使……消除疑虑) children going through a difficult time and make them feel as if they’re not alone.
If reading can, as Jacqueline suggests, provide reassurance and a sense of connection, it has never been more important. Reading could transform one in four adults who experience mental health issues in their lifetime, the 850,000 people in the UK living with dementia (痴呆症) and the one in ten older people who feel lonely.
We always know that a book could be a great Christmas present, but can it also change our lives? Our research at The Reading Agency suggests that it can. We have found evidence to show that reading can benefit our well-being and help us make social connections.
People who read regularly are more satisfied with life and more likely to feel that the things they do are worthwhile; reading for pleasure can also increase sympathy, improve relationships, reduce symptoms of depression and improve well-being.
We are developing a new programme, Reading Friends, which will use reading to connect weak older people. In researching the programme, we found that reading with others can help older people build social networks.
Read a book with your children, parents or grandparents over Christmas; make a new year’s resolution to start a reading group with friends, and introduce reading to your community. You could be giving them the gift they most want this year.
28．What did Jacqueline Wilson worry about?
A．Children feeling lonely.
B．Old people being given less care.
C．Reading becoming less important than before.
D．More and more people suffering from dementia.
29．Who is the programme Reading Friends designed for?
A．Adults. B．Children. C．Friends. D．Old people.
30．What is the purpose of the last paragraph?
A．To call on people to read together.
B．To show the importance of reading.
C．To ask people to buy what they want for Christmas.
D．To encourage readers to share their feelings with others.
31．What is the best title for the text?
A．Reading helps people make friends
B．A book is not just for Christmas
C．The best Christmas present
D．Health benefits of reading
D
One day, a strong tall man broke into Eric’s home, shot and killed her mother in her presence. Nearly scared to death, she screamed and escaped. Then the child hadn't talked about her mother ever since. She just went into silence.
The first time she was introduced to my class, I decided to help the silent girl, who apparently had the pain of living without her mother.
However hard I tried, day by day, week by week, my efforts seemed to be in vain, as I didn’t seem to get any closer to Eric. Admittedly, my faith was fading away with the cold，boring March days dragging．I felt my heart was broken and ached desperately. I doubted whether this girl was able to come alive. I wondered when it was that she was able to respond to me actively and be aware of the fun, the beauty and the fantastic world around her.
Then on a late March day，Judy, one of the school children excitedly claimed that she had seen a beautiful bird in the schoolyard, sign of spring. "Spring's here!"all the children cried delightedly when they flocked to the window to see the bird．"Let's make a flower border for the room to welcome spring!"
Why not? Anything to lift our spirits is good．We selected colourful papers with brown strips for our baskets．Showing the children how to weave the baskets and how to decorate all the flowers to welcome early spring, I carefully put the beautifully colored papers on Eric’s desk and encouraged her to have a go．Then I spent the next hour sorting out strips of paper at the back of the room while the children were doing their own creating busily.
Suddenly Judy came hurrying to me，her face red．“Come and see Eric’s basket. It looks extremely charming!”
I held my breath at its beauty, “Eric, it is so fascinating! Tell me how you ever managed it.” She looked up at me with a warm smile, her eyes shining like any normal kid．“My mother was fond of flowers,” she said clearly．“Mother had all kinds of beautiful flowers growing in our garden．”
Eric’s basket was placed in the very center of the border at the front of the classroom and remained there until late in June when school was to end．On the last day，Eric was carrying it out of the door carefully when she came running back towards me. She pulled a flower made of red paper from her basket and presented it to me, hugging me gently．
I've kept this special gift in my room ever since then. I cherish it because it always reminds me of the power of love and faith．
32．What is the main purpose of the first two paragraphs?
A．Describe a frightening crime.
B．Give a brief introduction of Eric.
C．Analyze the cause for Eric’s silence.
D．Explain how Eric came to the writer’s class.

b. Lilly’s mother was shot and killed.
c. I received a paper flower from Lilly.
d. I had my children weave baskets.
e. Emma spotted a bird in the school yard.
f. Emma invited me to see Lilly’s basket.
A．a-e-b-f-c-d B．b-e-a-f-d-c
C．a-b-f-c-b-d D．b-a-e-d-f-c

67．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 particularly tough day last December, Flores came up with the idea of having her twins send letters to Santa by balloon. She told them that Santa would grab the balloons while he flew through the air on his sled.
The twins were excited. Flores helped them compose their letters, writing down all the things they dreamed Santa might bring them, and then put the notes into festive red balloons.
On a chilly, windy morning, she dressed the girls in identical pink sweatshirts, put beautiful bows in their hair, and then took them outside to release their wishes to the universe.
Several days later, when Alvin Bamburg, 66, was deep in the woods in Grand Cane, Louisiana, something caught his eyes. Hanging in a fallen tree, it looked like litter. But Bamburg felt he must pick it up.
“God just told me,” he says.
As Bamburg approached, he saw that the object was a broken balloon. Attached was a piece of paper decorated with shiny star stickers. It was a child’s Christmas wish list.
“Dear Santa,” the handwritten note read. “ My name is Luna. I am four years old, and I live in Liberal, Kansas. This year I have been nice. I would like candy, Spider-Man ball, and Frozen doll. With love, Luna.”
Bamburg’s heart hammered in his chest. Ever since he was a child, he had dreamed of this. “Years ago,” he says, “classes at school released balloons with notes. I’ve always wanted to find one.”
He believed this was his childhood wish coming true. And he knew he was going to make Luna’s wish come true too.
He just wasn’t sure how.
It is over 650 miles from Grand Cane, Louisiana to Liberal Kansas. But Bamburg’s wife, Lee Ann Bamburg, was not frightened by the distance. An enthusiastic Facebook user, she had seen other people find all sorts of connections through the site and thought it might help her husband find Luna.
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。
Paragraph 1:
So Alvin posted a photo of the balloon and the Christmas list on his Facebook page.

Paragraph 2:
Having received so much generosity, Flores and her girls were deeply moved.

W: Good morning, everybody. My name is Jane Brown. Today I’d like to talk about myself. I’m 32 years old and I have just finished my first week at university. As well as attending lectures regularly, I have had to learn to read books quickly and write long papers. I decided to go to university after 14 years away from the high-school classroom. As a secretary, although I was earning a reasonable amount of money, I was bored with doing something where I hardly had to think. I wanted to be one of the students at the local university, who looked happy and full of hope. However, now that I’ve actually become a student I find it hard to mix with younger classmates. Unlike most eighteen-year-olds, I much prefer a weekend with my books to one out partying. Then there are the normal student benefits of long holidays and theater and cinema discounts. I hope that continuing my education at this late date has been a wise choice.

66．Dear David,
I’m sorry to know that your best friend and you broke up over a small thing, for which you feel regret. I understand quite well that you are upset and have a strong will to recover your friendship.
I recommend that you take the first step actively. It is not unusual for teenagers of our age to have disagreements. But don’t let them affect your relationship unless they are very important. So, I think you should be the first to reach out the hand of friendship because it depends on you to be the icebreaker of you two. I am sure he will be more than glad to accept you from the bottom of heart.
All the best.
Yours,
Li Hua

67．One possible version:
So Alvin posted a photo of the balloon and the Christmas list on his Facebook page. Fortunately, the post found its way to Flores. It amazed her to learn that a stranger coincidentally spotting the balloon would fulfill her daughters’ Christmas wishes. Greatly touched, she called Alvin. When told how much it would mean to him to satisfy the girl’s wishes, she shared her address. No sooner had he hung up than he headed to purchase tasty candies, fancy dolls, and balls of various types. He then had them packed and mailed them with a note signed “Alvin”.
Having received so much generosity, Flores and her girls were deeply moved. To express appreciation for Alvin’s kindness, the twins wrote a thank-you letter to him. It dawned on them that a kind act would make a world of difference. Inspired by Alvin’s kindness, they planned to give away their toys, shoes and clothes to the poor children at Christmas. They shared the idea with mom, who gave them a thumbs-up. Flores felt pleased that an invaluable lesson was engraved on her girls’ mind that the best way to pay back is to pay it forward.
【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了在一个特别艰难的日子，Flores想出了让她的双胞胎用气球给圣诞老人写信的主意，双胞胎姐妹在气球上写下心愿后放飞气球，66岁的Alvin Bamburg在树林深处遇到了一只破气球，气球上面附有小女孩的圣诞节礼物清单，Alvin Bamburg为了帮助小女孩就在Facebook上面发布了这个清单和气球的照片，后来帮助小女孩实现了愿望。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“因此，Alvin在他的Facebook页面上发布了一张气球的照片和圣诞清单。”可知，第一段可描写Alvin找到了女孩的妈妈Flores，准备帮女孩实现心愿。
②由第二段首句内容“Flores和她的女儿们受到了如此慷慨的款待，她们深受感动。”可知，第二段可描写女孩收到礼物开心且深受感动，准备把收到的礼物送给贫穷的孩子们，让爱心传递下去。
2.续写线索：网上发布信息找人——找到相关人员——决心帮助女孩实现心愿——女孩收到礼物很高兴——女孩决定爱心传递下去——感悟
