续写的词数为100左右。

Kusa, a 10-year-old boy, has looked out for his big sister, 12-year-old Pahnuly, for as long as he can remember. At school, he helps her unpack her things at her locker. At home, they read together, play games and practice counting.

Pahnuly has autism (自闭症). People with autism often have trouble talking with others. They might repeat things over and over, or be interested in only one subject. But it was Pahnuly that inspired Kusa to think differently. One day, they played ping-pong with their parents at home in Brooklyn Park. But Pahnuly struggled with it. So Kusa wanted to find a way to make it more suited to his sister’s needs. He came up with a new game based on ping-pong. It is called Aeropong because the ball seems to float in the air. In Aeropong, a ping-pong ball hangs from a frame. The players hit the ball back and forth. It’s kind of like tennis, but no one has to chase the ball.

At first, Pahnuly didn’t show much interest. But soon, Kusa heard a sound coming from the front room. Clack(吧嗒声). Clack. Clack. Pahnuly had picked up a paddle (乒乓球拍) and was tapping the ball. Then, she started hitting it back and forth with Kusa and their dad. Eventually, the family took a trip to Menards to buy some PVC pipes and fashioned a portable frame for the ball to hang from. They also designed rules and ways to score points.

Word spread at school about Kusa’s game. His teacher, Stasica, asked him to tell his class about Aeropong. Kusa was usually shy, but when he talked about his game, his face lit up with excitement, Stasica said. Kusa told his classmates the game was meant to make people smile, especially his big sister. "When she scores," he said, "she dances."

Paragraph 1:

Aeropong has become an essential family activity in Kusa’s home.

________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

Paragraph 2:

Widely spreading on the Internet, Kusa’s game got attention across the country.

_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________

【答案】Paragraph 1:

Aeropong has become an essential family activity in Kusa’s home. The family all play the game wearing T-shirts with the game’s name on them. Pahnuly watches the online clips nearly every day. She was celebrating a win at Aeropong over her dad. She waved her pink cat paddle in the air. Cats are Pahnuly’s favorite animals.

Paragraph 2:

Widely spreading on the Internet, Kusa’s game got attention across the country. It soon gained great popularity. Meanwhile, a toy company decided to produce Aeropong on an industrial scale. Now, he dreams of becoming a "creator and businessman". He said his big sister has already inspired him to create other inventions.

【解析】

这是一篇读后续写作文。

通过阅读所给文章可知,文章讲述了十岁的男孩Kusa一直在照顾他12岁患有自闭症的姐姐Pahnuly,并为Pahnuly想出了一个基于乒乓球的新游戏Aeropong。并在学校传开了,他的老师Stasica让他给全班同学讲讲Aeropong,当Kusa谈到自己的游戏时,他的脸上洋溢着兴奋。

续写部分分为两段,第一段开头是:Aeropong已经成为Kusa家中必不可少的家庭活动。所以后文应该是讲述Kusa家玩Aeropong游戏的情况;第二段开头是:Kusa的游戏在互联网上广泛传播,引起了全国的关注。本段应该写Kusa的游戏获得人们的欢迎,与此同时,一家玩具公司决定大规模生产Aeropong。现在,他梦想成为一名“发明家和商人”。

注意续写时要求所续写短文的词数应为100左右。

【题目】Do you feel sad? Happy? Angry? You may think that the way you show these emotions is unique. Well, think again. Even the expression of the most personal feelings can be classified, according to Mind Reading, a DVD exhibiting every possible human emotion1

In the mid 1800s, Darwin divided the emotions into six types—anger, fear, sadness, disgust, surprise and enjoymentMore complex expressions of emotion were probably learned and therefore more specific to each cultureBut now it is believed that many more facial expressions are shared worldwide2The Mind Reading DVD is a systematic visual record of these expressions

The project was designed by a Cambridge professorHis research team first had to define an "emotion"3Using this definition, 412 emotion terms were identified and discussed, from "afraid" to "wanting"

Then each expression is acted out by six different actors"It was really clear when the actors had got it right," says Cathy Collis, who directed the DVD"Although they were given some direction, the actors were not told which facial muscles they should move4

Someone who has tried to set such rules is the American, Professor Paul Ekman, who built database of how the face moves for every emotionThe face can make 43 distinct muscle movementsEkman has also found that it may not be possible for people to reproduce them artificiallyThe most difficult expression to reproduce is the smileIt isn't only about stretching the lips, but tightening the tiny muscles around the eyes5If we learnt to recognize whether someone was using their eye muscle when they smiled, we would be able to distinguish true enjoyment from false.

A.It shows 412 distinct ways we feel

B.These can be combined into more than 10,000 facial shapes

C.These particular muscles are difficult to control, and few people can do it

D.They decided that it was a mental state that could be introduced by "I feel" or "he looks "or "she sounds"

E.He said the expression of these feelings was universal and recognizable by anyone, from any culture

F.It is as if they are programmed into the brains of "normal humans" wherever they are and whatever their races

G.We thought of trying to describe each emotion, but it would have been almost impossible to make clear rules for this

【题目】 Whether you’re going in for checkups or common tests in the hospital, here’s how to get the most out of your next visit.

If you’re going in for a regular doctor visit, you’re probably going to have your blood pressure taken. So it’s best to avoid coffee right before your appointment. 1 Using coffee or other caffeine such as energy drinks or colas within an hour of having your blood pressure measured can make the number artificially higher. 2

They also may cause untrue results.

You probably want to show the doctor your best health. 3 Before an annual appointment, your providers would like you to be honest and upfront about your lifestyle and diet so they can have an accurate history of your health and provide you with the best possible care. You may think improving an unhealthy diet close to your appointment date is necessary. 4 It takes a long time for diet to change cholesterol and blood sugar, so a dietary change of a few days or meals isn’t going to do much. Changes occur over the long term, so it’s best to eat healthy as much as you can.

No matter what kind of appointment you have, you may be a bit nervous-after all, being examined by a doctor can make us feel vulnerable and even embarrassed. But if you write down the things you want to talk about before you go (or even make a note on your phone), you’re less likely to forget or lose you nerve. It’s helpful if you come in with your list of questions. 5

A.You may get too nervous to ask.

B.The same goes for tobacco products.

C.It might affect the results.

D.But probably that wouldn’t matter.

E.Your doctor wants you to feel better.

F.It’s not necessary to change your eating habits.

G.Don’t be afraid to write down.

【题目】 A few years ago, a doctor gave a wrong prescription to a 9-year-old boy because he had accidentally clicked the next medicine listed in the drop-down menu. Unfortunately, the boy died.

Dr. Gidi Stein heard the story and felt forced to do something. “It was like killing someone with a spelling error. He just clicked on the wrong button,” Stein said. “One would have thought there’d be some kind of spell-checker to prevent these terrible things from happening. But apparently this is not the case.”

Several things were immediately obvious to the 54-year-old Stein, who had previously studied computer science. “If you look at this problem from a bird’s eye view, there were so many places down the line where this decision could have been stopped — from the physician to the pharmacy (药房) even to the mother. All of them had all the relevant information to have a judgment call that this was just the wrong drug for the wrong patient.” For Stein, it represented a systemic failure.

Stein compared this with credit cards. “If you use your credit card in the daily routine over time, a pattern of how we use our cards comes out: the grocery store, the gas station in our local town. If your credit card would appear tomorrow in Zimbabwe, it would be unusual. The credit card company would call you and say, ‘Hey, was that you?’”

But nothing like that existed in the field of prescription drugs. So Stein set up a company called MedAware. He came up with a machine learning outlier detection (异常检测值) system. In other words, he trained the computers to realize if a doctor accidentally prescribed the wrong medicine.

The system is already used in hospitals and doctor’s offices. To date, MedAware has used their technology to help nearly six million patients in the United States and Israel.

1What led to the boy’s death?

A.The doctor’s carelessness.B.The drawback of the computer.

C.The doctor’s poor medical skill.D.The incomplete health care system.

2What does Stein feel about this medical accident?

A.Angry.B.Frightened.

C.Embarrassed.D.Regretful.

3What can MedAware’s technology do?

A.Help doctor choose right medicine.B.Reminds patients to take medicine.

C.Introduce new drugs to doctors.D.Check the prescription.

4Where is this text most likely from?

A.A diary.B.A guidebook.

C.A magazine.D.A science fiction.

【题目】 Following the outbreak of the novel coronavirus pneumonia (NCP), also named COVID -19 by WHO, there is a general fear of the unknown virus as its full effects remain to be seen. Fever, coughing, sore throat, difficulty breathing – the NCP’s symptoms are similar to the common cold or the flu, but it’s potentially more dangerous.

Viruses could be deadly, like HIV and Ebola. 1 How can they cause so much trouble?

Viruses are non-living organisms approximately one-millionth of an inch long. Unlike human cells or bacteria, they can’t reproduce on their own. Instead, they invade the cells of living organisms to reproduce, spread and take over.

Viruses can infect every living thing – from plants and animals down to the smallest bacteria. 2 Sometimes a virus can cause a disease so serious that it is fatal. Other viral infections bring about no noticeable reaction.

Viruses lie around our environment all of the time, waiting for a host cell to come along. They can enter our bodies by the nose, mouth, eyes or breaks in the skin. 3 For example, HIV, which causes AIDS, attacks the T-cells of the immune system.

But the basic question is, where did viruses first come from? 4 “Tracing the origins of viruses is difficult,” Ed Rybicki, a virologist at the University of Cape Town in South Africa, told Scientific American, “because viruses don’t leave fossils (化石) and because of the tricks they use to make copies of themselves within the cells they’ve invaded.”

However, there are three main theories to explain the origin of viruses. First, viruses started as independent organisms, then became parasites (寄生者). Second, viruses evolved from pieces of DNA or RNA that “escaped” from larger organisms. Third, viruses co-evolved with their host cells, which means they existed alongside these cells.

5 The technology and evidence we have today cannot be used to test these theories and identify the most plausible explanation. Continuing studies may provide us with clearer answers.

A.But what are viruses?

B.For the time being, these are only theories.

C.Once inside, they try to find a host cell to infect.

D.The answer may be even less satisfactory than it now appears.

E.Until now, no clear explanation for their origin exists.

F.Experts are concerned about the bad effect that it had on people’s health.

G.For this reason, they always have the potential to be dangerous to human life.
