Dikes (堤坝)are great walls that stop the North Sea from rushing in and flooding the country. For many centuries the people of the Netherlands have worked to keep the walls strong to keep their country safe. Even little children there are quite aware that a small hole in the walls can cause big damage in the country. There was a boy who was named Peter. His father was one of the men who would open and close the gates in the dikes for the ships to pass out of the Netherlands9 canals into the great sea.One cold afternoon when Peter was eight years old, his mother asked him to deliver some cakes she baked to his blind friend who lived across the dike. Peter stayed with him for a while, shared his experience of the walk and described the sun, the flowers, and the ships far out in the sea.Then he found it was dark totally. So he said goodbye to his friend and set out for home immediately. On his way back, as he walked beside the canal, he noticed that the water had risen a lot because of rain and it was beating against the dike violently.As Peter was walking along, he suddenly heard a noise of trickling (滴流的)water. He stopped and saw a small hole in the dike through which a tiny stream was flowing. Peter knew the danger that could be caused as the little hole would soon become a larger one and the whole country could be flooded. So he climbed down the side of the dike and put his finger into the tiny hole. The flowing of the water stopped in no time.注意:1.续写词数应为15。左右;2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。Peter shouted for help, but in vain (徒劳).Early the next morning, a man going fbr work heard Peter's groan (呻吟).英语参考答案1.

Peter shouted for help, but in vain(徒翔.Because it was dark and cold, there was no one around who could hear him calling out for help. Gradually, Peter's arms ached and became numb. Even so, he didn't remove his finger from the hole. He tried to whistle to encourage himself, but he couldn't because he was trembling with cold. He thought about his brothers and sisters who must be sleeping in their warm beds and also of his father and mother who must believe he was staying with his blind friend for the night. He thought he would never be able to see them again. A little sad, he fell asleep in the end.Early the next morning, a man going for work heard Peter s groan (呻吟).He found Peter was holding firmly to the side of the great wall. He came down to Peter's side. Gathering all his strength, Peter informed him about the hole in a very low voice. Soon the alarm was spread and people came running to mend the hole. They also wrapped Peter with a thick blanket and sent him to hospital. All the people praised Peter for his bravery as he saved the whole country from drowning that night.

It's a time for Nature to bring us back to life after a cold season. I live not far from the Kairaku Park, which is one of the largest gardens in Japan, and famous for its near 10,000 plum trees. I am fortunate to have them all outside my backyard, and take advantage of the walking paths daily.I see the same trees and swans every day, but that day was different. At the edge of the small lake, I saw some new -born black swans. They were pretty and cute. They stayed with their mom.While taking a few photos of the sunset, I was interrupted by a high sound going on for some time. So, I turned around and saw one little swan was stuck by two stones. Its mother was trying to make it out but failed. I tried to get near but the mother was ever so angry! She wouldn't allow me to get close, so I turned to an old man sitting on the bench and saidExcuse me, the swan baby can*t move and I want to help it, but the mother is extremely angry! Could you please do me a favor?nAfter hearing my words, the man smiled at me first and then agreed to help me. He drove the mother away with great efforts, and for several times, he was almost hurt by the mother. Thanks to him, I was able to get there and push the little swan out of the gap finally. Oh, I really hoped it wasn't injured, but at least it was alive and swimming!In spring, I become more physically active. Things around don't make us, but Nature does, and it keeps us going. I am positive that all of us have a little piece of nature in our own neighborhoods. Somewhere we will be reminded why natural life is so importantbecause we grow with it! Personally, I am happy that baby birds can put a smile on my face! I struggle for having a small number of “things“ in life, and being filled with simple realityat one with Nature. 4.

Our children were upstairs unpacking, and I was looking out of the window at my father moving around mysteriously on the front lawn. "What are you doing out there? I called to him.He looked up, smiling. “I'm making you a surprise." I thought it could be just about anything. When we were kids, he always created something surprising for us. Today, however, Dad would say no more, and caught up in the business of our new life, I eventually forgot about his surprise.Until one gloomy day the next March when I glanced out of the window, saw a dot of blue across the yard. I headed outside for a closer look. They were crocuses (番红花)throughout the front lawn blue, yellow and my favorite pink, with little faces moving up and down in the cold wind. I remembered the things Dad secretly planted last autumn. He knew how the darkness and dullness of winter always got me down. What could have been more perfectly timely to my needs?My father crocuses bloomed (开花)each spring for the next five seasons, always bringing the same assurance: Hard times are almost over. Hold on, keep going, and light is coming soon.Then a spring came with only half the usual blooms and the next spring there were none. I missed the crocuses, so I would ask Dad to come over and plant new bulbs. But I never did. He died suddenly one October day. My family were in deep sorrow, leaning on our faith.On a spring afternoon four years later, I was driving back when I felt depressed. It was Dad's birthday, and I found myself thinking about him. This was not unusual my family often talked about him, remembering how he lived up to his faith. Suddenly I slowed as 1 turned into our driveway. I stopped and stared at the lawn. There on the muddy grass with small piles of melting snow, bravely waving in the wind, was one pink crocus.How could a flower bloom from a bulb more than 18 years ago, one that hadn't bloomed in over a decade? But there was the crocus. Tears filled my eyes as I realized its significance.Hold on, keep going, and light is coming soon. The pink crocus bloomed for only a day, but it built my faith for a lifetime.9.

Anyone can become a better student if he or she wants to.Here is how.Plan your time carefully.When planning your week, you should make a list of things that you have to do. After making the list, you should make a schedule(计戈U表)of your time. First arrange your time for eating, sleeping, dressing, etc. Then decide a good, regular time for studying. Don't forget to set aside enough time for entertainment. A weekly schedule may not solve all the problems, but it will force you to realize what is happening to your time.Find a good place to study.Look around the house for a good study .Keep this place, which may be a desk or simply a corner of your room, free of everything but study materials.

Really listening in class means less work later. Taking class notes will help you remember what the teacher says.Study regularly.When you get home from school, go over your notes. Review the important points that your teacher has mentioned in class. If you know what your teacher is going to discuss the next day, read the material. This will help you understand the next class. If you do these things regularly, the material will become more meaningful, and you will remember it longer.Develop a good attitude about the tests.The purpose of a test is to show what you have learned about a subject.
