题型组合练——阅读理解＋完形填空＋应用文写作

Ⅰ. 阅读理解

(2022·江苏南京调研)I wonder if I'm getting to be transparent. I can see waiters, but they can't see me. Ticket agents look right through me at the person next in line. I have the same feeling when I try to catch the attention of salesgirls, taxi drivers and my wife.

I'm substantial enough, maybe a little too substantial in places. And there's an undeniable air of authority about the way I stride (阔步行走) into a restaurant, pull my necktie into place and signal the headwaiter. The headwaiter's glance sweeps my way, then comes to rest on a section of flowered wallpaper directly behind me. He considers it for a moment, and looks away. Five minutes later I manage to catch his eye. He strides in my direction, takes a menu from the pile at my elbow (肘；肘部) and walks back across the room. Another 10 minutes pass, and our eyes meet head­on. His face lights up and he hurries towards me, saying to the couple right beside me, “This way, please.”

Maybe I could arouse interest by pulling off the tablecloth. Maybe the best plan is to get up and start out of the restaurant without paying — a trick which never fails to earn me the whole attention of every waiter in the place.

On the other hand, people have no trouble making me out when I don't want them to. I never can avoid a friend who has been having a little bad luck lately and who would like to borrow some money. I'll spot him half a block away, and cross the street to the other side. He crosses at the same time. I stop and stare at a store window until he has passed, but his eye encounters mine in the reflection of the glass. I lend him the money, but from the moment on he can't see me.

A Volunteer Activity

【参考范文】

A Volunteer Activity

To help our hometown build a National Health City, the Students' Union of our school organised a volunteer activity last weekend.

The activity was so warmly welcomed that more than 500 students signed up for it. All the volunteers were divided into several groups and they went to the nearby communities, where they helped the residents and the workers do a thorough cleaning. The communities took on a new look.

This activity was highly thought of, because it not only made a difference, but also raised the students' sense of participation.
