Sectin B
Directins: Read the fllwing three passages. Each passage is fllwed by several questins r unfinished statements. Fr each f them there are fur chices marked A, B, C and D. Chse the ne that fits best accrding t the infrmatin given in the passage yu have just read.
(A)
“It’s a windy day in Laguna San Ignaci, and the waves seem t cme frm all directins,” said Sara Clemence in Blmberg Businessweek. My children and I are riding n a 18-ft bat—small enugh that we can reach dwn int the water if a gray whale swims up alngside. And then we see what we’ve cme fr: a heart-shaped shwer f water and a dark mass rushing belw it. As instructed, we splash (溅泼) the water strngly t signal the huge whale, which turns ut t be a mther with her weeks-ld baby. The baby sn swims beneath ur bat, emerges t blw mist in my face, then “lies nt its side like a 2-tn puppy.” Leaning dwn, I tuched its skin gently. “It feels electric. Als, a bit like petting a hard-biled egg.”
San Ignaci is ne f very few places where a persn can pet a whale. The whales cme each year t the cast f Baja Califrnia t give birth and t mate. If yu’re lucky yu can “shake hands with a leatheryfin (鳍)” r even “plant a kiss n a cld, salty cheek.” I usually wrry abut such interactins, because wild creatures can becme deeply stressed by human cntact. But bat numbers are strictly limited in these prtected waters. And any whale that appraches a bat des s n its wn terms. Like that baby whale: “We see him a few times, and he seems t like being petted and splashed.”
S we are tw species, cnnecting thrugh tuch, but als thrugh eye cntact: “Mre than nce, after nsing arund ur bat, a yung gray turns n its side s ne dark, baseball-size eye is lking up at us.” Whalers used t call gray whales “devil fish” because these magnificent creatures turn vilent when threatened—“r, say, when their babies are harmed.” That makes it feel even mre f a blessing when, n ur third day there, a large mama whale appraches the bat. “I’m splashing when I feel her nse press up int my hand.” Thugh she’s “wiser and apparently mre alert” than her child, “she still decides t trust us.”

(C)
In the film Inside Out, 11-year-ld Riley’s emtins are persnified as brightly clred internal figures that drive her behavirs. The same five emtins—anger, fear, disgust (憎恶), sadness, and jy—appear in every ther character’s head as well, functining in much the same way in each individual. In Western cultures, this is the case, argues psychlgist Batja Mesquita in Between Us. Emtins in such cntexts, she writes, are cnsidered “MINE,” r “Mental, INside the persn, and Essentialist,” the latter defined in the bk as always having the same prperties.
This cnceptin f emtin is nt universal, hwever. Emtins elsewhere, she argues, are thught f as “OURS”—“OUtside the persn, Relatinal, and Situated.” Using this distinctin, Mesquita sets abut cntrasting emtins in “the West,” where the individual is the tp cncern, with “the Rest,” where cmmunity is priritized.
Mesquita describes amae as a central emtin in Japanese culture, where it builds interdependence by encuraging tlerance in parenting prcess. She describes hasham—which includes shame, embarrassment, and scial respectability—as a fundamental emtin fr Egyptian Beduins (游牧人). Such bservatins prvide a backgrund fr her t explre a range f issues, including childhd scializatin, the nature f friendship, the rle f language in shaping emtins, and crss-cultural cmmunicatin in a glbalized wrld.
Despite Mesquita’s emphasis n crss-cultural emtins, there is little discussin f whether the MINE-OURS dichtmy (二分法) accurately explains glbal cultural variatin. Other schlars have nted, fr example, that hunter-gatherer scieties at the same time emphasize bth individual self-gvernment and scial cperatin. And in an apparent cntradictin t her earlier arguments, Mesquita herself ultimately cncludes that Westerners have OURS emtins.
Taken as a whle, hwever, the bk cntributes much t the discussin f the rigins f emtins, presenting a remarkable cllectin f crss-cultural studies intermixed with persnal stries abut freign residents’ struggles t reunite diverse emtinal and scial wrlds. In chapter 8, fr example, Mesquita describes an incident where she—a Dutch native living in the United States—bumped int the famus American psychlgist Hazel Markus at a cnference Markus helped rganize. Wishing t express understanding f Markus’s wrklad, Mesquita declared “Yu lk a little tired.” The remark appeared t make Markus nervus and cnfused but was intended as an expressin f sympathy—t sympathize in Dutch is t acknwledge suffering, nt ffer cmfrt as in the US.
The bk’s take-hme message is fundamental: There are n natural emtins, n inbrn emtins, n universal emtins. Mesquita argues that emtins are “meaning making” and “a preparatin fr actin” and that the idea f “emtins as inner states” is a Western cnstruct. Instead, she suggests that emtins are a “dance” ccreated between peple wh live in a specific cultural cntext at a particular histrical mment.
43. In Between Us, Mesquita indicates that ______.
A. the Japanese build kids’ emtin f shame in parenting
B. MINE-OURS dichtmy is the very cause f crss-cultural emtins
C. emtins utside “the West” are cnsidered cmmunity-centred
D. hunter-gatherers have bth emtins f “OURS” and “MINE”
44. We can infer frm the incident in paragraph 5 that ______.
A. the emtin f sympathy is t ffer help in Dutch culture
B. freign residents frm different cultures usually unite as ne
C. as Dutch Mesquita shws her persnality f warmth and caring
D. crss-cultural emtinal exchanges prbably cause misunderstanding
45. What is Mesquita’s main argument abut emtins in her bk?
A. Family educatin hardly influences ne’s emtins.
B. Scicultural cntexts largely cntribute t emtins.
C. Western peple’s emtins have n prperties f OURS.
D. Internal factrs play a vital rle in shaping hw we feel.
46. Which f the fllwing is the best title f the passage?
A. The cultural landscape f emtinsB. The cultural rigin f emtins
C. The cultural cnventin f emtinsD. The cultural shck f emtins
Sectin C
Directins: Cmplete the fllwing passage by using the sentences given belw. Each sentence can be used nly nce. Nte that there are tw mre sentences than yu need.
Rbts that serve
Rbts used t be fund nly in science fictin. In the 1960s, the animated (动画片的) space-age family the Jetsns had a rbtic maid wh culd d husehld tasks. In the 2014 mvie Big Her 6, the rbt Baymax culd diagnse and heal illnesses instantly. ____47____ In the field f medicine, rbt patients help train dctrs and nurses by pretending they have a variety f health cnditins. Nw rbts are finding a hme in the fd service industry.
The glbally spread disease and resulting ecnmic crisis have created a lack f restaurant wrkers. Since restaurants dn’t have enugh wrkers, the remaining staff must wrk harder. ____48____ Sme businesspersns are lending a hand—a rbtic hand—in the frm f server rbts. These rbts are nt exactly mdeled after Rsey, the Jetsns’ rbtic husehld servant, but they are pretty clever and very cute.
Server rbts cme in several different varieties. Many have a design that lks like a rlling cart. One mdel named Bella even has a cute cat-like face. Many are fairly shrt and shaped like R2D2 f Star Wars fame. They are designed t deliver dishes t custmers in a restaurant. They are als just the right height fr custmers t easily reach them. ____49____ They can nt nly deliver delicius fd t hungry custmers, but als get back dirty dishes at the end f the meal.
____50____ Cncerning the price, a server rbt csts frm a few thusand t several thusand dllars. And in 2021, a restaurant even rented ne fr as lw as US$15 per day. Regarding safety, special sensrs n the rbts keep them frm crashing int custmers. Because there aren’t enugh restaurant wrkers, filling psitins with these rbtic servers is a n-brainer. Dn’t be surprised if yu see ne rlling up t yur table sn.
A. Typically, their deliveries have t ccur within 30 secnds.
B. Perhaps yu’re wndering abut issues such as the cst and safety factrs.
C. In real life rbts functin in many manufacturing and husehld situatins.
D. Regardless, custmers face lnger wait times, fewer menu chices and higher prices.
E. Server rbts are planned t be given new functins, such as perfrming and hlding cnversatins with custmers.
F. Restaurant wners are finding server rbts ideal fr perfrming repetitive tasks, hwever many there are.
IV. Summary Writing
51. Directins: Read the fllwing passage. Summarize in n mre than 60 wrds the main idea f the passage and hw it is illustrated. Use yur wn wrds as far as pssible.
Men may eat mre in summer
Winter may be seen as the time t fill up with fd, but in fact, sunny summer mnths are when men eat mre calries—unlike wmen.
The effect seems t ccur because sunlight makes the skin release an appetite-stimulating hrmne (激素), says Carmit Levy at Tel Aviv University in Israel. Levy and her clleagues nticed the effect in experiments in mice, in which male animals expsed t UV light (紫外线) ate mre fd.
T see if humans d the same, the team used data n abut 3000 peple wh had filled in questinnaires as part f the Israeli gvernment’s natinal health and nutritin survey. Between March and September, the men cnsumed abut 17 per cent mre calries per day than they did during the rest f the year, while the wmen’s fd intake stayed abut the same.
Human appetite is influenced by many cmplex systems, but a substance called ghrelin, a hrmne prduced in the bdy that stimulates appetite, seems t be the nly hrmne that directly stimulates eating. It was thught t be mainly prduced by the stmach when empty. “It tells the brain t eat mre,” says Carline Grvin at the University f Birmingham, UK.
Further investigatin revealed that expsing male mice t UVB (紫外线 B 段波) radiatin, which is present in sunlight, raised levels f ghrelin prductin by fat cells in their skin. This was blcked by the female sex hrmne, which may explain why the effect wasn’t seen in the female mice r the wmen. Bsted ghrelin prductin was als seen in men’s skin samples that were expsed t UV light in the lab.
Skin hasn’t previusly been thught t play a rle in appetite, says Grvin. The reasn fr the effect is unclear, but it may be an adaptive respnse t fuel greater physical activity in summer, says Levy.

Sectin B
Directins: Read the fllwing three passages. Each passage is fllwed by several questins r unfinished statements. Fr each f them there are fur chices marked A, B, C and D. Chse the ne that fits best accrding t the infrmatin given in the passage yu have just read.
(A)
“It’s a windy day in Laguna San Ignaci, and the waves seem t cme frm all directins,” said Sara Clemence in Blmberg Businessweek. My children and I are riding n a 18-ft bat—small enugh that we can reach dwn int the water if a gray whale swims up alngside. And then we see what we’ve cme fr: a heart-shaped shwer f water and a dark mass rushing belw it. As instructed, we splash (溅泼) the water strngly t signal the huge whale, which turns ut t be a mther with her weeks-ld baby. The baby sn swims beneath ur bat, emerges t blw mist in my face, then “lies nt its side like a 2-tn puppy.” Leaning dwn, I tuched its skin gently. “It feels electric. Als, a bit like petting a hard-biled egg.”
San Ignaci is ne f very few places where a persn can pet a whale. The whales cme each year t the cast f Baja Califrnia t give birth and t mate. If yu’re lucky, yu can “shake hands with a leatheryfin (鳍)” r even “plant a kiss n a cld, salty cheek.” I usually wrry abut such interactins, because wild creatures can becme deeply stressed by human cntact. But bat numbers are strictly limited in these prtected waters. And any whale that appraches a bat des s n its wn terms. Like that baby whale: “We see him a few times, and he seems t like being petted and splashed.”
S we are tw species, cnnecting thrugh tuch, but als thrugh eye cntact: “Mre than nce, after nsing arund ur bat, a yung gray turns n its side s ne dark, baseball-size eye is lking up at us.” Whalers used t call gray whales “devil fish” because these magnificent creatures turn vilent when threatened—“r, say, when their babies are harmed.” That makes it feel even mre f a blessing when, n ur third day there, a large mama whale appraches the bat. “I’m splashing when I feel her nse press up int my hand.” Thugh she’s “wiser and apparently mre alert” than her child, “she still decides t trust us.”

A. The writer was n a whale-tuching trip.
B. The writer’s bat went dwn with a huge wave.

【40题详解】
推理判断题。根据表格左部分，第三个表格中第一段中“Cmputers were suppsed t make ur lives simpler, but they’ve gtten s cmplicated that they are nt wrth the truble. If this sunds familiar, we have great news fr yu. There is finally a cmputer that’s designed fr simplicity and ease f use. It’s the WOW Cmputer, and it was designed with yu in mind.(计算机本应使我们的生活更简单，但它们已经变得如此复杂，以至于不值得为它们费心。如果这听起来很熟悉，我们有好消息要告诉你。终于有了一款设计简单易用的电脑。这是WOW电脑，它是为你而设计的)”以及第三段中“Call nw, and yu’ll find ut why tens f thusands f satisfied senirs are nw enjying their WOW Cmputers, emailing their grandchildren, and experiencing everything the Internet has t ffer.(现在打电话，你会发现为什么成千上万的老年人现在正在享受他们的WOW电脑，给他们的孙子孙女发电子邮件，体验互联网所提供的一切)”可推知，作者最有可能的意思是WOW电脑是专为老年人量身定做的。故选C项。
【41题详解】
细节理解题。根据表格左部分，第三个表格中第二段中“Then yu’ll see the screen— it’s nw 22 inches. This is a cmpletely new tuch screen system. The “buttns” n the screen are easy t see and easy t understand. All yu d is tuch ne f them, frm the Web, Email, Calendar t Games(然后你会看到屏幕——现在是22英寸。这是一个全新触摸屏系统。屏幕上的“按钮”很容易看到和理解。你所要做的就是触摸其中一个，从网页、电子邮件、日历到游戏)”以及小黑点部分“Send & Receive Emails(发送和接收邮件)”和“Play games Online: Hundreds t chse frm!(在线玩游戏:数百个选择!)”可知WOW电脑只能发送和接收邮件，而不能读邮件给使用者，所以玛丽，一个77岁的老太太，视力不好，不会因为它能读邮件给使用者而决定买一台WOW电脑。故选A项。
【42题详解】
细节理解题。根据表格右部分，最下方表格“FREE：Autmatic Sftware Updates(免费的软件自动更新)”可知，软件更新是免费的，所以A项错误。B项文中没有提及，所以错误。根据表格右部分NEW部分中“Intel® prcessr— lightning fast(英特尔®处理器-闪电般的速度)”可知，C项错误。再根据表格左部分，第三个表格中最后一段“Mentin prmtinal cde 117238 fr intrductry pricing.(在介绍价格时，请注明促销代码117238)”可知，有促销价格是它的一个卖点。故选D项。
(C)
In the film Inside Out, 11-year-ld Riley’s emtins are persnified as brightly clred internal figures that drive her behavirs. The same five emtins—anger, fear, disgust (憎恶), sadness, and jy—appear in every ther character’s head as well, functining in much the same way in each individual. In Western cultures, this is the case, argues psychlgist Batja Mesquita in Between Us. Emtins in such cntexts, she writes, are cnsidered “MINE,” r “Mental, INside the persn, and Essentialist,” the latter defined in the bk as always having the same prperties.
This cnceptin f emtin is nt universal, hwever. Emtins elsewhere, she argues, are thught f as “OURS”—“OUtside the persn, Relatinal, and Situated.” Using this distinctin, Mesquita sets abut cntrasting emtins in “the West,” where the individual is the tp cncern, with “the Rest,” where cmmunity is priritized.
Mesquita describes amae as a central emtin in Japanese culture, where it builds interdependence by encuraging tlerance in parenting prcess. She describes hasham—which includes shame, embarrassment, and scial respectability—as a fundamental emtin fr Egyptian Beduins (游牧人). Such bservatins prvide a backgrund fr her t explre a range f issues, including childhd scializatin, the nature f friendship, the rle f language in shaping emtins, and crss-cultural cmmunicatin in a glbalized wrld.
Despite Mesquita’s emphasis n crss-cultural emtins, there is little discussin f whether the MINE-OURS dichtmy (二分法) accurately explains glbal cultural variatin. Other schlars have nted, fr example, that hunter-gatherer scieties at the same time emphasize bth individual self-gvernment and scial cperatin. And in an apparent cntradictin t her earlier arguments, Mesquita herself ultimately cncludes that Westerners have OURS emtins.
Taken as a whle, hwever, the bk cntributes much t the discussin f the rigins f emtins, presenting a remarkable cllectin f crss-cultural studies intermixed with persnal stries abut freign residents’ struggles t reunite diverse emtinal and scial wrlds. In chapter 8, fr example, Mesquita describes an incident where she—a Dutch native living in the United States—bumped int the famus American psychlgist Hazel Markus at a cnference Markus helped rganize. Wishing t express understanding f Markus’s wrklad, Mesquita declared “Yu lk a little tired.” The remark appeared t make Markus nervus and cnfused but was intended as an expressin f sympathy—t sympathize in Dutch is t acknwledge suffering, nt ffer cmfrt as in the US.
The bk’s take-hme message is fundamental: There are n natural emtins, n inbrn emtins, n universal emtins. Mesquita argues that emtins are “meaning making” and “a preparatin fr actin” and that the idea f “emtins as inner states” is a Western cnstruct. Instead, she suggests that emtins are a “dance” ccreated between peple wh live in a specific cultural cntext at a particular histrical mment.
43. In Between Us, Mesquita indicates that ______.
A. the Japanese build kids’ emtin f shame in parenting
B. MINE-OURS dichtmy is the very cause f crss-cultural emtins
C. emtins utside “the West” are cnsidered cmmunity-centred
D. hunter-gatherers have bth emtins f “OURS” and “MINE”
44. We can infer frm the incident in paragraph 5 that ______.
A. the emtin f sympathy is t ffer help in Dutch culture
B. freign residents frm different cultures usually unite as ne
C. as Dutch Mesquita shws her persnality f warmth and caring
D. crss-cultural emtinal exchanges prbably cause misunderstanding
45. What is Mesquita’s main argument abut emtins in her bk?
A. Family educatin hardly influences ne’s emtins.
B. Scicultural cntexts largely cntribute t emtins.
C. Western peple’s emtins have n prperties f OURS.
D. Internal factrs play a vital rle in shaping hw we feel.
46. Which f the fllwing is the best title f the passage?
A. The cultural landscape f emtinsB. The cultural rigin f emtins
C. The cultural cnventin f emtinsD. The cultural shck f emtins
【答案】43. C 44. D 45. B 46. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是篇说明文。文章通过对书籍“In Between Us”中关于情感的描述，介绍了作者——心理学家Mesquita对于情感的概念和产生原因的理解，体现了社会文化背景对情感的影响。
【43题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Using this distinctin, Mesquita sets abut cntrasting emtins in “the West,” where the individual is the tp cncern, with “the Rest,” where cmmunity is priritized.”（利用这一区别，Mesquita开始对比“西方”和“其他国家”的情感，“西方”的个人是最受关注的，“其他国家”的社区是优先考虑的。）可知，Mesquita表明了在“西方”之外的情感被认为是以社区为中心的。故选C。
【44题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“Wishing t express understanding f Markus’s wrklad, Mesquita declared “Yu lk a little tired.” The remark appeared t make Markus nervus and cnfused but was intended as an expressin f sympathy--t sympathize in Dutch is t acknwledge suffering, nt ffer cmfrt as in the US.”（为了表达对Markus工作量的理解，Mesquita说:“你看起来有点累。”这句话似乎让Markus感到紧张和困惑，但这是一种同情的表达——在荷兰，同情是承认痛苦，而不是像在美国那样提供安慰。）可知，Mesquita的话引起了Markus的误解，说明跨文化的情感交流可能会造成彼此之间的误解。故选D。
【45题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“ she suggests that emtins are a “dance” ccreated between peple wh live in a specific cultural cntext at a particular histrical mment.”（她认为，情感是生活在特定文化背景下、特定历史时刻的人们共同创造的“舞蹈”。）可知，Mesquita在书中的主要观点是社会文化背景在很大程度上导致了情感的产生。故选B。
【46题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第五段“Taken as a whle, hwever, the bk cntributes much t the discussin f the rigins f emtins,”（然而，从整体上看，这本书对情感起源的讨论做出了很大贡献）和最后一段“ she suggests that emtins are a “dance” ccreated between peple wh live in a specific cultural cntext at a particular histrical mment.”（她认为，情感是生活在特定文化背景下、特定历史时刻的人们共同创造的“舞蹈”。）并结合全文内容可知，文章主要是通过Mesquita在她的书中的观点讨论了情感的文化起源。故选B。

51. Directins: Read the fllwing passage. Summarize in n mre than 60 wrds the main idea f the passage and hw it is illustrated. Use yur wn wrds as far as pssible.
Men may eat mre in summer
Winter may be seen as the time t fill up with fd, but in fact, sunny summer mnths are when men eat mre calries—unlike wmen.
The effect seems t ccur because sunlight makes the skin release an appetite-stimulating hrmne (激素), says Carmit Levy at Tel Aviv University in Israel. Levy and her clleagues nticed the effect in experiments in mice, in which male animals expsed t UV light (紫外线) ate mre fd.
T see if humans d the same, the team used data n abut 3000 peple wh had filled in questinnaires as part f the Israeli gvernment’s natinal health and nutritin survey. Between March and September, the men cnsumed abut 17 per cent mre calries per day than they did during the rest f the year, while the wmen’s fd intake stayed abut the same.
Human appetite is influenced by many cmplex systems, but a substance called ghrelin, a hrmne prduced in the bdy that stimulates appetite, seems t be the nly hrmne that directly stimulates eating. It was thught t be mainly prduced by the stmach when empty. “It tells the brain t eat mre,” says Carline Grvin at the University f Birmingham, UK.
Further investigatin revealed that expsing male mice t UVB (紫外线 B 段波) radiatin, which is present in sunlight, raised levels f ghrelin prductin by fat cells in their skin. This was blcked by the female sex hrmne, which may explain why the effect wasn’t seen in the female mice r the wmen. Bsted ghrelin prductin was als seen in men’s skin samples that were expsed t UV light in the lab.
Skin hasn’t previusly been thught t play a rle in appetite, says Grvin. The reasn fr the effect is unclear, but it may be an adaptive respnse t fuel greater physical activity in summer, says Levy.

【答案】During sunny summer mnths, males eat mre, accrding t a gvernment’s survey. Maybe sunlight makes the skin release an appetite-stimulating hrmne, called ghrelin which culd directly stimulates eating. Further investigatin even fund that ghrelin prductin increased sharply in male mice and men expsed t UVB radiatin. Pssibly, it is t adjust t greater physical activity in summer.
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了政府的调查显示和女性不同，男性在夏天会吃的更多。原因可能是因为阳光会导致皮肤释放一种叫做生长激素释放肽的荷尔蒙，能刺激胃口。并且，研究表明暴露于紫外线B 段波辐射的雄性小鼠和男性皮肤中的生长激素释放肽释放的激增。科研人员说这可能也是身体对夏天男性的身体活动需要摄取更多的食物所做出的适应性变化。
【详解】1.要点摘录

【答案】The mther left the umbrella at the dr in rder that her daughter wuld remember t take it with her when she left hme.
【解析】
【详解】考查状语从句。主句主语“妈妈”the mther，“把某物放在门口”leave sth. at the dr，主句描述过去的情况，应用一般过去时，动词使用过去式形式left；“以便于”应用in rder that引导目的状语从句，从句主语“女儿”her daughter，“记得做某事”remember t d sth.，从句表示从过去某一时间看，即将发生的动作，应用过去将来时，即wuld remember，“带走它”take it，“离家时”使用when引导时间状语从句，从句主语“她”she，“离家”leave hme，从句使用一般过去时，动词使用过去式形式left。故翻译为The mther left the umbrella at the dr in rder that her daughter wuld remember t take it with her when she left hme.

【详解】考查固定短语。主语为Mary；表示“就是想给其他在场的人以勇气”翻译为just want t give the ther peple here the curage；表示“让他们不顾重重困难，继续实现自己的梦想”翻译为t cntinue t achieve their dreams regardless f all the difficulties；句子用一般过去时。故翻译为Mary just wanted t give the ther peple here the curage t cntinue t achieve their dreams regardless f all the difficulties.
55. 据说不管老师怎么热情鼓励，小明就是不敢再坐上那个让他摔了一跤的秋千。 (It) (汉译英)
【答案】It is said that n matter hw enthusiastically the teacher encuraged him, Xia Ming didn’t dare t sit n the swing where he fell.
【解析】
【详解】考查固定句式、副词、动词和定语从句等。根据汉语句意可知，表示“据说……”可用It is said that句式；表示“无论老师怎么热情鼓励”可用n matter hw引导的让步状语从句，表示过去发生的事，应用一般过去时，即n matter hw enthusiastically the teacher encuraged him；表示“不敢……”可用dn’t dare t d sth，为过去时，应用didn’t dare t ；表示“坐上秋千”可用短语sit n the swing；表示“那个让他摔了一跤的秋千”可处理为先行词为swing的定语从句，即the swing where he fell。整句翻译为“It is said that n matter hw enthusiastically the teacher encuraged him, Xia Ming didn’t dare t sit n the swing where he fell.”。故翻译为It is said that n matter hw enthusiastically the teacher encuraged him, Xia Ming didn’t dare t sit n the swing where he fell.。
