Afterward all the local newspapers carried many human-interest stories featuring some of the families who suffered the hardest.One Sunday, a particular picture especially touched me. A young woman stood in front of an entirely shattered(破碎的)mobile home, a depressed expression on her face. A young boy, seven or eight years old, stood at her side, eyes downward. Clutching(紧握)at her skirt was a tiny girl who stared into the camera, eyes wide with confusion and fear.The article that went with the picture gave the clothing sizes of each family member. With growing interest, I noticed that their sizes closely matched ours. This would be a good opportunity to teach my children to help those less fortunate than themselves. I stuck the picture of the young family on our refrigerator, explaining their difficulty to my seven-year-old twins, Brad and Brett, and to three-year-old Meghan.“These poor people now have nothing,I said. "We'll share what we have with them. I brought three large boxes down from the room upstairs and placed them on the living room floor. Meghan watched seriously, as the boys and I filled one of the boxes with canned goods and foods.While I sorted through our clothes, I encouraged the boys to go through their toys and donate some of their less favorite things. Meghan watched quietly as the boys piled up old toys and games.Meghan walked up with Lucy, her worn, much-loved rag doll hugged tightly to her chest. She came to the box that held the toys, pressed her round little face into Lucy's flat, painted-on-face, gave her a final kiss, then laid her gently on top of the other toys.“Oh, Honey,“ I said." You don't have to give Lucy. You love her so much.Meghan nodded seriously, eyes filled with held-back tears. nLucy makes me happy, Mommy. Maybe she'll make that other little girl happy,too.注意:L续写词数应150为左右2,请在答题卡的相应位置作答。The boys had watched, open-mouthed, as their baby sister placed her favorite doll in the box.lookedatmychildrenforlongmoment.A.

For those with small hand spans (掌B巨),it's difficult to properly play many works of Beethoven and Brahms. Those who attempt to play them either get used to skipping notes or risk injury with repeated play. Leone is familiar with such challenges. Born into a family of musicians, she favored classical music and pursued piano despite her small hand span and earned a degree as a doctor in musical arts.The idea of smaller keyboards first met resistance from some traditionalists. Leone also said that when she raised the issue with one Viennese professor, he told her there were already too many pianists anyway.Though such resistance is fading, there are some very traditional people who think of piano as a competitive thing. Leone said, nThis is art, it's not sport. It's about making as much beautiful art as possible, and we should give everybody the opportunity to do that/*24. Why did Eliana Yi find it hard to play a Chopin concert to well?A. Her fingers got injured.B. It was time-consuming.C. Her hand spans were small.D. The traditional piano was out of tune.25. What is paragraph 4 intended to do?A. Summarize the previous paragraphs.B. Provide some advice for pianists.C. Introduce a new topic for discussion.D. Add some background information.26. What is the Viennese professor's attitude towards smaller keyboards?A. UnclearB. ObjectiveC. Disapproving.D. Positive.27. Which is the most suitable title for the text?A. A Hard-working SMU ProfessorB. The Story Behind Smaller Keyboard PianosC. Traditional Piano: A Competitive ThingD. Yi*s Road to a Brilliant ArtistCLast Tuesday, a robotic ship called the Mayflower Autonomous Ship(MAS)took off from Plymouth, England. Its mission(使命)was to recreate the 1620 crossing of the Atlantic by the Mayflower, which brought the first European settlers to the USA. But unlike the original Mayflower, there are no people on the MAS. Everything about the ship is designed to run automatically. The ship is guided by an artificial intelligence(Al)system called "AI Captain1'.The MAS is a project run by a group called ProMare along with the computer company, IBM. The ship's electric motor is powered by solar energy. The goal of the project is to test different kinds of technologies for collecting information about the sea. If these can be handled by machines, it could be a big advance in ocean research.Because the MAS didn't have to carry humans, its designers were free to think about how to make the best ship for the job. In addition to cameras and radar to help the ship guide itself, the ship is carrying many different kinds of tools and sensors. It has special listening devices which can detect whales and dolphins. It even has a special "tongue” which can report back on the chemicals in the water.Last Friday morning, scientists tracking the ship noticed that it was going about half as fast as it should have been going. The Al Captain was working well, but there seemed to be something slowing the motor down. Since the ship had only covered 10% of the way across the Atlantic, the team decided to bring it back to Plymouth so they could fix the problem and send it out again. They sent the MAS instructions to turn back.When the MAS finally does put out to sea again, it is expected to take about three weeks to cross the Atlantic Ocean. The fastest speed for the MAS is about 10 mph(16 kph), That may seem slow, but it's about 5 times faster than the original Mayflower, which took 66 days to make the journey.28. What is the main mission of the MAS project?A. Take more Europeans across the Atlantic. B. Explore the ocean with high technologies.C. Develop new artificial intelligence system. D. Test the new robotic ship of IBM on the sea.29. What happened to the MAS on the sea?A. There was something wrong with the Al Captain.B. The scientists failed to guide the ship completely.C. The ship couldn't reach its destination as planned.D. The robotic ship's electric motor didn't work well.30. What can we know from the last paragraph?A. The robotic ship will set sail again soon.B. The journey will be difficult and dangerous.C. The entire journey will be about 2, 100 miles.D. The MAS will travel farther than the original one.31. Whats the best title for the text?A. A Robotic Ship Guided by the AI Captain System.B. Self-Driving Mayflower Ship Forced to Turn Back.C. The Fastest Robotic Ship Sailing Across the Atlantic.D. Another Mayflower Recreating the Cross-Atlantic Trip.DPeople today are not unfamiliar with term such as "going eco-friendly'1 and "sustainable lifestyle1'. However, there exists a group of sceptics (怀疑论者)who believe that going eco-friendly is merely a fad (时的风尚).I disagree with this viewpoint, Going eco-friendly is not merely a fad and it does, in fact, change the beliefs and attitudes of people.The long-term presence of environmental organizations shows the efforts that people have made towards going eco-friendly. Organizations such as World Wildlife Fund advocate people to go eco-friendly. The high involvement of the organizations and the participants is thus a strong indicator that going eco-friendly is not merely a fad but a trend that can last decades.Another strong indicator is the emergence of sustainable products in many industries, such as organic produce and electric vehicles. The consumer demand, coupled with eco-conscious (环保 意识的)businesses, is behind the sharp increase in such products. This shows a shift in the beliefs and attitudes of people towards adopting a sustainable lifestyle. Thus, it seems quite certain thatgoing eco-friendly is not merely a fad.While some people who broadcast their eco-friendly practices are criticized f
