John Hydes, who served as a firefighter for 15 years in New Zealand before moving to Australia, is not only new to the neighbourhood, he’s also new to the country.But that didn’t stop him becoming a local hero recently when he pulled two kids from a burning house.
“What he did was fantastic.It was a very brave act.Our family can thank him for our lives.”The moment the kids’mother saw what Mr.Hydes did for her family, tears started welling up in her eyes and falling down her cheeks.
However, Mr.Hydes, who settled here six months ago, said he wasn’t thinking when he saved his neighbour’s son, 5, and daughter, 7, from their PointCook home minutes before the roof fell.
It was said that the children’s mother and the grandfather was occupied in housework outside the gate when the house caught fire.As they saw the thick smoke, they were scared out, unable to say a word.In spite of the phone call, the fire engine could not arrive quickly.The two children were in the bedroom.Desperate and hopeless, the kids’mother knelt down, crying at the top of her voice.Because of excessive shock, the old grandfather was in the hospital for a long time.
“When there are kids in danger you haven’t got time to think, you’ve got to act, ”the father of three said. “I hadn’t met my new neighbours before coming to their help.It’s just a different way of meeting them, ”he laughed.Actually, it was nothing new for Mr.Hydes to jump into a burning building.This time, however, he did it without protective clothing.Later on he recalled the thrilling scene of his fighting the fire.

【答案】Mr.Hydes was in bed when he heard screaming before 9 p.m.He rushed outside to find the kids’s mother, and grandfather in front of their house, crying that the kids’were still inside.On seeing this, he went through the thick smoke wearing just a T—shirt, shorts and no shoes, but un1uckily found the door to the children’s bedroom blocked by boxes.Going around the back of the house, Mr.Hydes broke the bedroom window with his hands.
“I was greeted(映……的眼帘)by two black and white faces screaming for help, ”he said.Luckily, Mr.Hydes quickly pulled both of the children to safety before the fire entered the bedroom.He said it was the young girl’s quick thinking in closing’the bedroom door that saved her’and her brother’s lives.Dark as the house inside was, the brave girl hugged her young brother tightly, waiting for the coming help.On hearing John’s shouting, the 1ittle girl screamed at the top of her voice.Thanks to John’s bravery and calmness, the two children were finally reunited with their family happily.
【解析】
本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读所给文章可知,刚到澳大利亚不久的消防员John Hydes冒着生命危险救了邻居的两个孩子。邻居对他的行为表示感恩,认为他是一个真正的英雄,但John Hydes认为救孩子是出于他的本能反应。
续写部分分为两段,第一段的开头是:在晚上9点之前Mr.Hydes听到尖叫声时,他已经躺下……,所以应该接着写他起床循着声音走过去,发现孩子的妈妈和爷爷都在着火的房子无助地哭着,并且告诉他两个孩子还在房子里面。然后,Mr.Hydes不顾自己没有穿防火服冲进去救孩子。第二段的开头是:他说:“我看到两个黑白相间的脸向我呼救。”……所以应该接着写两个孩子虽然很害怕但意识很清晰,他们看到Mr.Hydes 呼救的声音更大了,Mr.Hydes 迅速地把大的孩子拉上,小的孩子抱上,及时将他们带出了快要坍塌的房子。孩子的妈妈和爷爷看到孩子后都很高兴,并且连连感谢Mr.Hydes,认为他很勇敢是他们的英雄。
续写时要求使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词增加了写作难度,我们要熟悉所给的划线词,恰当的时候加以运用。最后还有注意所续写的短文的词数应为150左右;续写完成后,请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词。按要求完成写作任务。

【题目】 Why, you may wonder, should spiders be our friends? Because they destroy so many insects, and insects include some of the greatest enemies of the human race. Insects would make it impossible for us to live in the world; they would devour all our crops and kill our flocks and herds, if it were not for the protection we get from insect-eating animals. We owe a lot to the birds and beasts who eat insects but all of them put together kill only a fraction of the number destroyed by spiders. Moreover, unlike some of the other insect eaters, spiders never do the least harm to us or our belongings.
Spiders are not insects, as many people think, nor even nearly related to them. One can tell the difference almost at a glance, for a spider always has eight legs and an insect never more than six.
How many spiders are engaged in this work on our behalf? One authority on spiders made a census of the spiders in a grass field in the south of England, and he estimated that there were more than 2,250,000 in one acre, that is something like 6,000,000 spiders of different kinds on a football pitch. Spiders are busy for at least half the year in killing insects. It is impossible to make more than the wildest guess at how many they kill, but they are hungry creatures, not content with only three meals a day. It has been estimated that the weight of all the insects destroyed by spiders in Britain in one year would be greater than the total weight of all the human beings in the country.
【1】Spiders are our friends because they_______.
A.are beneficial insects
B.protect insect-eating animals
C.destroy insects without hurting us in any way
D.include some of the greatest enemies of the human race
【2】The underlined word “devour” in the first paragraph probably means “________”.
A.protectB.eat upC.be beneficial toD.help
【3】Birds and beasts_________.
A.eat as many insects as spiders
B.eat more insects than spiders
C.can’t compare with spiders as destroyers of insects
D.destroy a large fraction of insects than spiders
【4】If spiders were insects, they would______.
A.have eight legsB.have six legs or less
C.be able to flyD.not destroy their own kind

【题目】 Some pigs tend to be optimistic while others are pessimistic, according to a new research that is meaningful to animal welfare. The study, published in the journal Biology Letters, is the first to show that mood and personality interact in an animal, influencing judgment.
Asher, a researcher at the University of Newcastle's Institute of Neuroscience, and her team housed groups of pigs in two types of environment. One reflected standard commercial conditions and the other was cushier with more space and plenty of soft, deep straw. After the pigs got accustomed to these new homes over a few weeks, the researchers picked 18 pigs from each type to train and test their judgment.
“To do this, we trained each pig. In one corner of a training room there would be a bowl with chocolate sweets — pigs love them — and at the opposite side of the room there would be a bowl containing coffee beans, which pigs find bittertasting,” a researcher said.
Over a number of training trials, pigs learned to go to the bowl reliably when it was in the corner where they had figured out to expect chocolate sweets. On the contrary, they quickly learned to avoid the bowl when it was in the corner where they would expect to find the coffee beans.
The researchers next placed an unfamiliar bowl in different locations, to see how the pigs would react. Some gaily dashed to the bowl no matter what was inside, showing optimism that it would contain their favorite sweets. Others, however, behaved as though they expected it to contain coffee beans, displaying pessimism.
The findings suggest that a onesizefitsall answer to animal welfare issues does not exist. Even if pigs are just equal to bacon or other meat for some people, there is still cause for concern. Studies have suggested that how an animal is treated during its lifetime can directly affect meat quality and taste.
【1】What was the study trying to figure out?
A.How to make pigs happier.
B.The similarities between humans and pigs.
C.How living environment affected pigs' mood.
D.How pigs' mood and personality affected their judgment.
【2】What does the underlined word “cushier” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Simple.B.More comfortable.
C.Unpractical.D.Less free.
【3】What do the findings of the new research imply?
A.People should treat pigs equally.
B.People's health relies on meat quality.
C.People should meet pigs' various needs.
D.People's attitude toward pigs is totally wrong.
