A
Are you looking for some good places for you and your four-leg friend? Here are some for you.
Tahmoor Gorge (峡谷)
The number and quality of swimming holes in this valley immediately take us back to some of our favourite places in Kakadu national park. The only difference here is that you don’t need a four-wheel drive, so the best way togo to the gorge is walking. This pet-friendly walk follows the Bargo River through an open gorge that gradually drops to a deep gorge. It is a popular place for locals on weekends. The further you run into the gorge, the less people there are.
Sirius Cove, Mosman
Sirius Cove is one of many quietly beautiful places along the Taronga Zoo to Balmoral Beach walking trail (路线). The deep, U-shaped bay, with a large grassy area, is popular with picnicking families and their dogs.
Kutti Beach, Vaucluse
We heard about it from a friend, but it is so hidden that it is not easy to find the entrance. Follow Wharf Road until it dead ends at the Vaucluse Amateur Sailing Club. Go right up to the building and look left. There is a very narrow set of stairs leading to the beach. Go down the steps and open the gate at the bottom. Follow the narrow road along the wall to the sand. The best bit? It’s dog-friendly.
MacKenzies Beach, Tamarama
From whale watching hot place MacKenzies Point, follow the sloped (斜的) road to MacKenzies Beach, a dog-friendly, short-time beach that only appears every couple of years when the right combination (结合) of wind and sand on the normal rocky reef. They say you aren’t a local until you’ve seen sand at MacKenzies.
1. What do we know about Tahmoor Gorge?
A. It’s a must to drive there.
B. It’s a popular place on weekdays.
C. It’s a good way to go there on foot.
D. It’s a popular place for foreign visitors.
2. Which is the most hidden place according to the author?
A. Tahmoor Gorge. B. Kutti Beach, Vaucluse.
C. Sirius Cove, Mosman. D. MacKenzies Beach, Tamarama.
3. What do the four places have in common?

B
When I was young, I had no idea what I wanted to do. The choices were thin. It was assumed (假定的) that I’d go to college, and after, that I could be a mom. I could, be a secretary. I could be a nurse or a teacher. If anyone asked, I said I wanted to be a writer. Even I knew that wasn’t a real job. Mostly, I didn’t think about it.
But just as I was coming of age, a world of possibility opened up. By the time I graduated from college with a science degree, I still didn’t know what I wanted to do. And one day, after seeing a notice in the paper, I remembered there was something I’d wanted to do, once. It sounded fun, so I took the test to be a mail carrier. The new Postal Service was by law an inclusive group. If you got a good enough score, you were in.
It was an older woman conducting (执行) my fitness entry exam who was the first to disagree. This wasn’t a job for a girl, she said. And I shouldn’t take a man’s job away from him. He has a family to support. Despite that poor assumed man’s family, I became one of perhaps a dozen female carriers in the whole city of Portland, Oregon.
On the street, I was a novelty (新奇的人). I didn’t go a single day without hearing some friendly words: Well, I guess we can’t call you the mailman, can we? We’ll have to call you the mail-woman! Those particular words somehow appeared naturally in thousands of minds at once. My existence received attention. It’s hard to imagine now.
Thirty-two years later I retired into a very different world. Being a retired mail carrier is even more fun than being a mail carrier. And finally I get to be a writer. It’s still not really a job.
4. What can we know about the author when she was young?
A. She had no plan for her future.
B. She studied hard to be a writer.
C. She never wanted to go to college.
D. She knew little about what a real job was.
5. Why did the author want to be a mail carrier?
A. She could do nothing else after her graduation.
B. She thought it interesting to be a mail carrier.
C. She got a high score in the test to be a mail carrier.
D. She was bored with studying for a science degree.
6. What was the older woman’s attitude to the author’s decision?
A. Supportive. B. Careless. C. Unclear. D. Negative.
7. What was the author’s purpose in writing this text?
A. To stress the importance of a career plan.
B. To share the story of her career options.
C. To show the fun of being a mail carrier.
D. To express her regret about her job choice.
【答案】4. A 5. B 6. D 7. B

He has a family to support.(第一个反对我的是一位上了年纪的妇女，她负责我的入职体能考试。她说，这不是女孩该做的工作。我不应该抢走男人的工作。他要养家糊口)”推知，那位年长的女士对作者的决定持否定的态度。故选D项。
【7题详解】

An important lesson in the moral (道德的) education of children could be as close as the book in their hands. Stories matter. And they can play a role in building moral values in young audiences, according to the results of a new study.
Lindsay Hahn is the first author of the new study, which explores how media content (内容) influences children. Many studies done before have focused on wide concept (概念), but Hahn’s study looks at how moral values might influence the kids’ values. Do children reading particular moral, characteristics take in those qualities and build their own morality? The findings suggest so.
“Parents, caregivers, and teachers are often wondering how media can be used for good,” says Hahn. “How can it be used for good things? How can it discourage bad habits? How can it educate?” Answering those questions begins with a better understanding of how to use media. “When parents are considering what media they might want to select for their children, they can deliberate what particular moral value is being stressed by the main character, and how the main character is treated because of those actions,” she says.
For the study, Hahn and her workmates took the main character from a young adult novel. They wrote the content to reflect the study’s focus on moral values. Those stories were shared with about 200 participants (参与者) between the ages of 10 and 14. This is a favorable range for media research because it’s more difficult to introduce the understanding of stories to younger kids, while challenging to hold the attention of older teenagers, who become bored with basic storylines, according to Hahn.
8. What is the result of the new study?
A. Stories should be spread more by media.
B. Children like reading books full of funny stories.
C. Children have learned an important lesson from stories.
D. Stories help children to develop their own moral values.
9. What does Hahn’s study focus on?
A. How children deal with media content.
B. How children are exposed to modern society.
C. How media content influences children’s moral: values.
D. How children should deal with the moral values in stories.
10. What does the underlined word “deliberate” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Describe. B. Improve. C. Title. D. Consider.
11. Which is the best title for the text?
A. The Young Can Build Good Moral Values Easily
B. It Is Difficult for the Young to Understand Moral Values
C. Stories Play an Important Role in the Young’s Moral Values
D. Scientists Find More Ways to Help the Young Build Moral Values
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. D 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是根据一项新的研究结果，故事可以在年轻听众的道德价值观建设中发挥作用。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的“An important lesson in the moral (道德的) education of children could be as close as the book in their hands. Stories matter. And they can play a role in building moral values in young audiences, according to the results of a new study.(对孩子进行道德教育的重要一课就像他们手中的书一样近在咫尺。故事很重要。根据一项新的研究结果，它们可以在年轻听众的道德价值观建设中发挥作用。)”可知，这项新研究的结果是故事帮助孩子们发展自己的道德观。故选D。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“Lindsay Hahn is the first author of the new study, which explores how media content influences children. Many studies done before have focused on wide concept, but Hahn’s study looks at how moral values might influence the kids’ values.(Lindsay Hahn是这项新研究的第一作者，该研究探索了媒体内容如何影响儿童。以前做过的许多研究都专注于广泛的概念，但Hahn的研究着眼于道德价值观如何影响孩子的价值观。)”可知，Hahn的研究重点是媒体内容如何影响儿童的道德价值观。故选C。
【10题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段的“When parents are considering what media they might want to select for their children(当父母考虑为孩子选择什么样的媒体时)”和“what particular moral value is being stressed by the main character, and how the main character is treated because of those actions(主角强调了什么特殊的道德价值，主角因为这些行为而受到了怎样的对待)”可知，划线词所在句子的意思是“当父母考虑为孩子选择什么样的媒体时，他们可以考虑主角强调了什么特定的道德价值，以及主角因这些行为而受到怎样的对待”，因此划线词deliberate的意思是“考虑”，和consider意思相近，故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段的“An important lesson in the moral (道德的) education of children could be as close as the book in their hands. Stories matter. And they can play a role in building moral values in young audiences, according to the results of a new study.(对孩子进行道德教育的重要一课就像他们手中的书一样近在咫尺。故事很重要。根据一项新的研究结果，它们可以在年轻听众的道德价值观建设中发挥作用。)”可知，本文主要讲的是根据一项新的研究结果，故事可以在年轻听众的道德价值观建设中发挥作用，因此最好的标题是C选项“Stories Play an Important Role in the Young’s Moral Values(故事在年轻人的道德价值观中扮演着重要的角色)”。故选C。
D
As we all know, children are fast learners when learning a second language. However, adults can study a second language as fast as children, a new study reports. Adults can develop the increased neural (神经的) connections with language study that can avoid dementia (痴呆) by four years, as well as make traveling a lot easier.
In an examination of Spanish second-language learners, the researchers found that after simplest training, the brain activity between sentences that relied on grammatical features unique to each language was similar to that of native speakers. “I think it is the reason why people think university foreign language teaching is good. It shows that, even with limited time in the college classroom, learning can happen quite quickly and well,” said professor Alison Gabriele, the co-author of the paper.
Beyond that, it gives parents more reasons to study a second language as part of a family effort. Further research has shown that learning a language as a family effort improves everyone’s abilities and gives opportunities for learning something that are mostly absent from classroom settings. National Geographic reports in an interview with Christine Jernigan, author of Family Language Learning: Learn Another Language, Raise Bilingual Children, that as for immersion (沉浸) in language study, practicing a second language with people is the most important part, and who talks to each other more than a family? Language learners need to be brave. Besides, they should ready themselves for making mistakes and receive others’ advice.
Most people will be far more comfortable making mistakes around family members than in a classroom setting. Furthermore, any home activity, whether that’s gardening, playing in the yard, watching movies, going shopping, cleaning, or cooking a meal, becomes an opportunity for language learning. Jernigan suggests preparing vocabulary before an activity and using it as short homework. Jernigan suggests using subtitles (字幕) too, so you can see which words are being used.
12. What does the new study in paragraph 1 find?
A. Kids often travel a lot ion their own.
B. Adults have learnt a second language better than kids.
C. Adults can study a second language as quickly as kids.
D. Kids are likely to develop the increased neural connections.
13. What does Alison Gabriele think of learning a language in the college classroom?
A. It is successful. B. It is challenging.
C. It is disappointing. D. It is boring.
14. What is the advantage of learning a language as a family effort?
A. Helping kids form good learning habits.
B. Making parents control kids easily.
C. Keeping kids focusing on the classroom.
D. Having more chances to learn in other situations.
15. What should language learners do according to the text?
A. Be brave to take more risks.
B. Fit in with new learning environment.
C. Be willing to accept other’s comments.
D. Spend much time doing home activities.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了成年人学习第二语言的速度可以和儿童一样快以及学习第二语言的一些方法。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据首段前两句“As we all know, children are fast learners when learning a second language. However, adults can study a second language as fast as children, a new study reports. (我们都知道，在学习第二语言时，孩子是快速的学习者。然而，一项新的研究报告称，成年人学习第二语言的速度可以和儿童一样快。)”可知，成年人学习第二语言的速度可以和儿童一样快。故选C。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段““I think it is the reason why people think university foreign language teaching is good. It shows that, even with limited time in the college classroom, learning can happen quite quickly and well,” said professor Alison Gabriele, the co-author of the paper. (“我认为这就是为什么人们认为大学外语教学好的原因。这表明，即使在大学课堂上的时间有限，学习也可以非常快速和良好，”论文的合著者艾莉森·加布里埃教授说。)”可知，艾莉森·加布里埃认为在大学教室里学习一门语言是成功的。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段第二句“Further research has shown that learning a language as a family effort improves everyone’s abilities and gives opportunities for learning something that are mostly absent from classroom settings. (进一步的研究表明，作为一种家庭努力学习一门语言可以提高每个人的能力，并有机会学习一些在课堂上几乎没有的东西。)”可知，全家人一起努力学习一门语言的好处是可以有机会学习课堂背景下学不到的东西，即：有更多在其他情况下学习的机会。故选D。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段末句“Besides, they should ready themselves for making mistakes and receive others’ advice. (此外，他们应该为犯错误做好准备，接受别人的建议。)”可知，语言学习者要乐于接受他人的意见。故选C。

Davey got up early in the morning and couldn’t wait to look out of the window. To his great disappointment, it was snowing heavily outside. Usually he would look forward to watching snow, but today he was not. It was Christmas Eve, and because of the snowstorm, Davey was worried that his cousin Josh would be stuck in the road and couldn’t make it to his home for Christmas from a neighboring city.
“We haven’t seen each other for half a year, and I have got a special present for him!” Davey said to himself. “How I wish he could get here!” Davey turned away from the window with a sigh (叹气).
In the afternoon, Davey and his parents drove to the town to buy a Christmas tree. When they finished shopping and were about to leave the store, Davey saw a crowd of people outside. He ran to get a closer look. It was Santa Claus (圣诞老人)! Children were waiting in line to express their wishes to him. “Can I get in line, please Dad?” asked Davey. “Well, we’re kind of in a hurry,” said his dad. “But since this is Santa Claus, I guess we can spare the time.”
Davey gave his dad a big thank-you hug and ran to the line. When it was finally his turn, Davey climbed up on Santa’s lap. Santa asked, “Well, what would you like for Christmas?”
“I wish my cousin Josh could get home for Christmas,” Davey said. “But the snow is so deep that Mom and Dad don’t think he can make it.” Having known from the weather forecast(预报) that it would clear up with the snow stopping in the late afternoon, Santa Claus said, “I don’t usually deliver people on Christmas Eve, but I’ll tell you what to do. Tonight, before you go to sleep, make your wish on the biggest, brightest star in the sky. That’s the Wishing Star and it might hear your heart.”
注意：

【答案】参考范文：
When it finally came to the bedtime, Davey rushed to the window. He was surprised and excited to find the snow had stopped falling. And there, right overhead, was an extremely shinning star. It was the biggest and brightest star in the sky, which was just as the Santa Claus had said. Davey looked up to the star and said, “Wishing Star, please let my Christmas wish come true. I wish that Josh would come home tonight, so we can all be together for Christmas.” Then he kissed his mom and dad and was about to go to his bedroom.
Just then, they heard the doorbell. “Who could that be?”Davey’s dad wondered and went to open the door. Surprisingly, there was Josh outside the door! Davey ran to Josh with excitement and gave him the biggest hug he could manage. Josh had made it home after all. Davey’s Christmas wish had come true! Later that night, when Davey was finally in bed, he looked out of his window again, saying to the Wishing Star, “Thank you, Wishing Star. Merry Christmas!”

Are you looking for some good places for you and your four-leg friend? Here are some for you.
Tahmoor Gorge (峡谷)
The number and quality of swimming holes in this valley immediately take us back to some of our favourite places in Kakadu national park. The only difference here is that you don’t need a four-wheel drive, so the best way togo to the gorge is walking. This pet-friendly walk follows the Bargo River through an open gorge that gradually drops to a deep gorge. It is a popular place for locals on weekends. The further you run into the gorge, the less people there are.
Sirius Cove, Mosman
Sirius Cove is one of many quietly beautiful places along the Taronga Zoo to Balmoral Beach walking trail (路线). The deep, U-shaped bay, with a large grassy area, is popular with picnicking families and their dogs.
Kutti Beach, Vaucluse
We heard about it from a friend, but it is so hidden that it is not easy to find the entrance. Follow Wharf Road until it dead ends at the Vaucluse Amateur Sailing Club. Go right up to the building and look left. There is a very narrow set of stairs leading to the beach. Go down the steps and open the gate at the bottom. Follow the narrow road along the wall to the sand. The best bit? It’s dog-friendly.
MacKenzies Beach, Tamarama
From whale watching hot place MacKenzies Point, follow the sloped (斜的) road to MacKenzies Beach, a dog-friendly, short-time beach that only appears every couple of years when the right combination (结合) of wind and sand on the normal rocky reef. They say you aren’t a local until you’ve seen sand at MacKenzies.
1. What do we know about Tahmoor Gorge?
A. It’s a must to drive there.
B. It’s a popular place on weekdays.
C. It’s a good way to go there on foot.
D. It’s a popular place for foreign visitors.
2. Which is the most hidden place according to the author?

D. They are open to the public only on weekends.
【答案】1. C 2. B 3. B

【2题详解】
细节理解题。根据Kutti Beach, Vaucluse中的“We heard about it from a friend, but it is so hidden that it is not easy to find the entrance.(我们从一个朋友那里听说过它，但它太隐蔽了，不容易找到入口。)”可知，最隐蔽的是Kutti Beach, Vaucluse。故选B项。
【3题详解】
细节理解题。根据Tahmoor Gorge中的“This pet-friendly walk follows the Bargo River through an open gorge that gradually drops to a deep gorge.(这条适合宠物的步行路线沿着巴戈河穿过一个开阔的峡谷，逐渐下降到一个很深的峡谷。)”、Sirius Cove, Mosman中的“The deep, U-shaped bay, with a large grassy area, is popular with picnicking families and their dogs.(深U型海湾，有一大片草地，很受野餐家庭和他们的狗的欢迎。)”、Kutti Beach, Vaucluse中的“The best bit?

B
When I was young, I had no idea what I wanted to do. The choices were thin. It was assumed (假定的) that I’d go to college, and after, that I could be a mom. I could, be a secretary. I could be a nurse or a teacher. If anyone asked, I said I wanted to be a writer. Even I knew that wasn’t a real job. Mostly, I didn’t think about it.
But just as I was coming of age, a world of possibility opened up. By the time I graduated from college with a science degree, I still didn’t know what I wanted to do. And one day, after seeing a notice in the paper, I remembered there was something I’d wanted to do, once. It sounded fun, so I took the test to be a mail carrier. The new Postal Service was by law an inclusive group. If you got a good enough score, you were in.
It was an older woman conducting (执行) my fitness entry exam who was the first to disagree. This wasn’t a job for a girl, she said. And I shouldn’t take a man’s job away from him. He has a family to support. Despite that poor assumed man’s family, I became one of perhaps a dozen female carriers in the whole city of Portland, Oregon.
On the street, I was a novelty (新奇的人). I didn’t go a single day without hearing some friendly words: Well, I guess we can’t call you the mailman, can we? We’ll have to call you the mail-woman! Those particular words somehow appeared naturally in thousands of minds at once. My existence received attention. It’s hard to imagine now.
Thirty-two years later I retired into a very different world. Being a retired mail carrier is even more fun than being a mail carrier. And finally I get to be a writer. It’s still not really a job.
4. What can we know about the author when she was young?
A. She had no plan for her future.
B. She studied hard to be a writer.
C. She never wanted to go to college.
D. She knew little about what a real job was.
5. Why did the author want to be a mail carrier?
A. She could do nothing else after her graduation.
B. She thought it interesting to be a mail carrier.
C. She got a high score in the test to be a mail carrier.
D. She was bored with studying for a science degree.
6. What was the older woman’s attitude to the author’s decision?
A. Supportive. B. Careless. C. Unclear. D. Negative.
7. What was the author’s purpose in writing this text?
A. To stress the importance of a career plan.
B. To share the story of her career options.
C. To show the fun of being a mail carrier.
D. To express her regret about her job choice.
【答案】4. A 5. B 6. D 7. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述了她是如何选择成为一位邮递员的以及当时人们女邮递员的态度。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段的第一句话“When I was young, I had no idea what I wanted to do.(当我年轻的时候，我不知道我想做什么)”可知，年轻的时候，作者对自己的未来没有计划。故选A项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的句子“It sounded fun, so I took the test to be a mail carrier.(听起来很有趣，所以我参加了考试，想成为一名邮递员)”可知，作者想当邮递员是因为她认为这很有趣。故选B项。

An important lesson in the moral (道德的) education of children could be as close as the book in their hands. Stories matter. And they can play a role in building moral values in young audiences, according to the results of a new study.
Lindsay Hahn is the first author of the new study, which explores how media content (内容) influences children. Many studies done before have focused on wide concept (概念), but Hahn’s study looks at how moral values might influence the kids’ values. Do children reading particular moral, characteristics take in those qualities and build their own morality? The findings suggest so.
“Parents, caregivers, and teachers are often wondering how media can be used for good,” says Hahn. “How can it be used for good things? How can it discourage bad habits? How can it educate?” Answering those questions begins with a better understanding of how to use media. “When parents are considering what media they might want to select for their children, they can deliberate what particular moral value is being stressed by the main character, and how the main character is treated because of those actions,” she says.
For the study, Hahn and her workmates took the main character from a young adult novel. They wrote the content to reflect the study’s focus on moral values. Those stories were shared with about 200 participants (参与者) between the ages of 10 and 14. This is a favorable range for media research because it’s more difficult to introduce the understanding of stories to younger kids, while challenging to hold the attention of older teenagers, who become bored with basic storylines, according to Hahn.
8. What is the result of the new study?
A. Stories should be spread more by media.
B. Children like reading books full of funny stories.
C. Children have learned an important lesson from stories.
D. Stories help children to develop their own moral values.
9. What does Hahn’s study focus on?
A. How children deal with media content.
B. How children are exposed to modern society.
C. How media content influences children’s moral: values.
D. How children should deal with the moral values in stories.
10. What does the underlined word “deliberate” mean in paragraph 3?
A. Describe. B. Improve. C. Title. D. Consider.
11. Which is the best title for the text?
A. The Young Can Build Good Moral Values Easily
B. It Is Difficult for the Young to Understand Moral Values
C. Stories Play an Important Role in the Young’s Moral Values
D. Scientists Find More Ways to Help the Young Build Moral Values
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. D 11. C

As we all know, children are fast learners when learning a second language. However, adults can study a second language as fast as children, a new study reports. Adults can develop the increased neural (神经的) connections with language study that can avoid dementia (痴呆) by four years, as well as make traveling a lot easier.
In an examination of Spanish second-language learners, the researchers found that after simplest training, the brain activity between sentences that relied on grammatical features unique to each language was similar to that of native speakers. “I think it is the reason why people think university foreign language teaching is good. It shows that, even with limited time in the college classroom, learning can happen quite quickly and well,” said professor Alison Gabriele, the co-author of the paper.
Beyond that, it gives parents more reasons to study a second language as part of a family effort. Further research has shown that learning a language as a family effort improves everyone’s abilities and gives opportunities for learning something that are mostly absent from classroom settings. National Geographic reports in an interview with Christine Jernigan, author of Family Language Learning: Learn Another Language, Raise Bilingual Children, that as for immersion (沉浸) in language study, practicing a second language with people is the most important part, and who talks to each other more than a family? Language learners need to be brave. Besides, they should ready themselves for making mistakes and receive others’ advice.
Most people will be far more comfortable making mistakes around family members than in a classroom setting. Furthermore, any home activity, whether that’s gardening, playing in the yard, watching movies, going shopping, cleaning, or cooking a meal, becomes an opportunity for language learning. Jernigan suggests preparing vocabulary before an activity and using it as short homework. Jernigan suggests using subtitles (字幕) too, so you can see which words are being used.
12. What does the new study in paragraph 1 find?
A. Kids often travel a lot ion their own.
B. Adults have learnt a second language better than kids.
C. Adults can study a second language as quickly as kids.
D. Kids are likely to develop the increased neural connections.
13. What does Alison Gabriele think of learning a language in the college classroom?
A. It is successful. B. It is challenging.
C. It is disappointing. D. It is boring.
14. What is the advantage of learning a language as a family effort?
A. Helping kids form good learning habits.
B. Making parents control kids easily.
C. Keeping kids focusing on the classroom.
D. Having more chances to learn in other situations.
15. What should language learners do according to the text?
A. Be brave to take more risks.
B. Fit in with new learning environment.
C. Be willing to accept other’s comments.
D. Spend much time doing home activities.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. C
【解析】

【15题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段末句“Besides, they should ready themselves for making mistakes and receive others’ advice. (此外，他们应该为犯错误做好准备，接受别人的建议。)”可知，语言学习者要乐于接受他人的意见。故选C。

Davey got up early in the morning and couldn’t wait to look out of the window. To his great disappointment, it was snowing heavily outside. Usually he would look forward to watching snow, but today he was not. It was Christmas Eve, and because of the snowstorm, Davey was worried that his cousin Josh would be stuck in the road and couldn’t make it to his home for Christmas from a neighboring city.
“We haven’t seen each other for half a year, and I have got a special present for him!” Davey said to himself. “How I wish he could get here!” Davey turned away from the window with a sigh (叹气).
In the afternoon, Davey and his parents drove to the town to buy a Christmas tree. When they finished shopping and were about to leave the store, Davey saw a crowd of people outside. He ran to get a closer look. It was Santa Claus (圣诞老人)! Children were waiting in line to express their wishes to him. “Can I get in line, please Dad?” asked Davey. “Well, we’re kind of in a hurry,” said his dad. “But since this is Santa Claus, I guess we can spare the time.”
Davey gave his dad a big thank-you hug and ran to the line. When it was finally his turn, Davey climbed up on Santa’s lap. Santa asked, “Well, what would you like for Christmas?”
“I wish my cousin Josh could get home for Christmas,” Davey said. “But the snow is so deep that Mom and Dad don’t think he can make it.” Having known from the weather forecast(预报) that it would clear up with the snow stopping in the late afternoon, Santa Claus said, “I don’t usually deliver people on Christmas Eve, but I’ll tell you what to do. Tonight, before you go to sleep, make your wish on the biggest, brightest star in the sky. That’s the Wishing Star and it might hear your heart.”

【答案】参考范文：
When it finally came to the bedtime, Davey rushed to the window. He was surprised and excited to find the snow had stopped falling. And there, right overhead, was an extremely shinning star. It was the biggest and brightest star in the sky, which was just as the Santa Claus had said. Davey looked up to the star and said, “Wishing Star, please let my Christmas wish come true. I wish that Josh would come home tonight, so we can all be together for Christmas.” Then he kissed his mom and dad and was about to go to his bedroom.
Just then, they heard the doorbell. “Who could that be?”Davey’s dad wondered and went to open the door. Surprisingly, there was Josh outside the door! Davey ran to Josh with excitement and gave him the biggest hug he could manage. Josh had made it home after all. Davey’s Christmas wish had come true! Later that night, when Davey was finally in bed, he looked out of his window again, saying to the Wishing Star, “Thank you, Wishing Star. Merry Christmas!”
