“Why she let out my secret? why she did that to me?” I vividly remembered that day when I was confused at the knowing looks which everyone gave me. That terrible experience was imprinted (铭刻) on my mind. I couldn’t forgive the person with whom I had shared my secret. She lost all my trust and friendship.Five years back, Sally was a new addition in our class. I don’t know what but there was something sticky about her that attracted me towards her. She was the most friendly person I knew. We started as classmates but after a few months we were like best friends. We did homework together and dreamed of going to the same university one day. We hung out and went to the movies on weekends. That was a sweet time.Nevertheless, I couldn’t expect such an enormous betrayal from her. I didn’t know what made me tell Sally about my personal life. I felt much regret to myself. She exaggerated (夸大) the matter, added her own spices to it and made it the hottest topic in school. It was like someone had stabbed a knife in my back. After she revealed my secret, everyone at school started laughing at me and gazing at me wherever I passed. I was like a pond in which someone had thrown a stone and it had been spilled up. It was the most embarrassing time I had gone through. Soon afterwards, I left school and shifted to another one, because I thought no one had the right to laugh at me. Sally called me many times bu t I didn’t answer. My heart was broken because the person whom I trusted most cheated me.I made efforts to remove the scar from my heart. I started a new life, leaving all the bad memories behind, because they made me a person who often thought about the past experiences. Five years later, with the life going on, I made new friends and seldom thought about the past.注意：1. 续写词数应为150左右；2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

A light knock on the door brought me from my kitchen. Because we had just moved into the neighbourhood. I couldn't imagine who it would be. Opening the door, an old man stood there, who was dressed in dirty clothing and wearing dirty rubber boots. His hand hung a plastic bag."Can I help you?" I asked."Would you like to buy some fresh garden vegetables?" His blue eyes were hopeful."Are they from your garden?" I looked inside his plastic bag and saw some carrots with soil."Yes." His voice was soft. "And I can get some apples from a tree in my yard. Would you like some of those, too?"My heart softened, and I wondered if he is badly in need of the bit of money. With a sigh, I said. "Please step inside and I'll get my money."The next day. he knocked at our door again. This time. my little four-year-old daughter got there first. "Oh, hello. Would you like to come in for tea?" Without a second thought. the old man stepped inside and held out a brokenbasket with several bruised（擦伤的）apples. "From my tree." he said. removing a worn cap. "You might like to make a pie."The three of us sat at the kitchen table and drank our tea. It was obvious that my daughter liked hosting a visitor in her never-ending questions. "What is your name? Where do you live? Why are your clothes so dirty?"The homeless-looking man laughed as he answered each question. His name was Mr. Locket and he lived around the corner. His wife had passed a away several years before, and his children all lived far away. He was lonely. His need for company had sent him door to door selling fruit and vegetables. Ours was the only door opened to him that day.注意：续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。

With a history of 120 years, the Goncourt Prize stands as one of the most important literary awards in France.Described as “extremely refreshing”, the book offers readers a break from a sad new cycle, according to Didier Lecoin, the jury (评委会) president of the Goncourt Prize. Philippe Claudel, another member, said it was “high-quality popular literature”. “And that is what the Goncourt is about,” he added.Watch Over Her develops as a love story between a young poor sculptor and a local noble young woman in 20th -century Italy, during the rise of fascism (法西斯主义). The account skillfully combines their story of love with explorations of Italian history and political structures.Andrea mentioned that he crafted the story of Watch Over Her because he desired to reconnect with Italy, “the country of my ancestors”, and because he firmly believed in the power of popular fiction.Andrea, a former screenwriter and director who turned to novel writing in his 40s, expressed that writing novels allowed him to rediscover the joy of writing lost in filmmaking. For him , writing is a means of taking control of his life, representing a return to his childhood passion for storytelling.While some critics suggested that Watch Over Her might challenge the traditionally elite (精英) image of the Goncourt Prize, Andrea thought differently in an interview with France Inter, stating, “I feel that today we’ve left the privilege of telling stories to cinema... as if telling a story excluded depth. But I think we can be popular and at the same time deep, and give different levels of reading to different types of readers and generations.”4．What is the purpose of the first paragraph?A．To lead into the topic of the passage.B．To introduce a new literary award.C．To present one of the major views of the society.D．To draw readers’ attention to writing.5．What do people think of Watch Over Her?A．It is highly thought of by all.B．It offers an escape from sorrow.C．It elevates high-quality literature.D．It provides access to science fiction. 6．Why did Andrea return to novel writing?A．He is interested in exploring storytelling methods.B．He hopes to find a sense of inner peace.C．He needs to seek further inspiration for filmmaking.D．He wants to fulfill his childhood dream.7．What do we know about Watch Over Her?A．It is a short story set in 19th-century Italy.B．It is a historical exploration of French politics.C．It represents Andrea’s way of revisiting his roots.D．It involves a young sculptor and a poor woman.Philippine pineapple farmers used to be bothered by pineapple leaves. Fortunately, their trouble has been removed by Carmen Hijosa, a Spanish researcher who spent eight years developing a new textile (纺织物) she calls Pinatex. This kind of new cloth materials, made from pineapple leaf fibres which are harvested and stripped from pineapple leaves by farmers, are very fine and strong and flexible. These characteristics make them quite popular.Since launching commercially in the mid-2015, Pinatex has been used by about 500 producers including a recent cooperation with fashion house Hugo Boss on a pair of vegan sneakers. Smaller fashion companies have been inspired by its unique look and feel.Timothy Turner, creative director for fashion brand Altiir whose entire collection of biker style jackets are made from Pinate x says, “it’s got a unique texture. I’ve worn this for about a year, and it ages to your body really gracefully and shapes to your body when it gets wet; it dries like leather, and it behaves like leather in every way except it’s completely sustainable.”The long fibre is pulled out through a process called decortication (去皮), which is done atthe plantation by the farming community. Ananas has developed the first automated decorticating machine to assist with this process, allowing farmers to use greater quantities of their waste leaves. Once the leaves have been stripped of fibre, the leftover biomass can be used as a nutrient-rich natural fertilizer or a biofuel, so nothing is wasted. The fibre then gets degummed (脱胶) and undergo an industrial process to become a non-woven material, which forms the base of Pinatex.The rolls of non-woven materials are then transported to Spain for specialised finishing. This unique process is what gives Pinatex its leather-like appearance, creating a textile that is soft and flexible, yet very strong. The finished textile is distributed to designers directly by Ananas Anam, who uses it as a sustainable alternative to leather in footwear and fashion accessories, clothing, interior furnishing and automotive cushions.8．What does the author intend to do in Paragraph 2?A．To promote a new product from Hugo Boss.B．To call for cooperation between companies.C．To provide evidence of Pinatex’s popularity.D．To inspire smaller fashion industries.9．What is Pinatex’s advantage over leather?A．It’s stronger and more flexible.B．It is environmentally friendly.C．It is more popular in industries.D．It consumes more pine leaves.10．What is the main idea of Paragraph 4?A．How is the machine developed.B．How is the leftover dealt with.C．How is the new textile produced.D．How is fibre stripped from leaves. 11．What is the best title for the passage?A．A Textile Made from Leaves B．An Annoyance of FarmersC．A Low-carbon Lifestyle D．A Revolution in AgricultureThe rate of childhood obesity in the U. S. has tripled over the past 50 years. The American Academy of Pediatrics (AAP) made waves this year by recommending that doctors put obese kids as young as two years old on intensive, family-oriented lifestyle and behavior plans. It also suggested prescribing weight-loss drugs to children 12 and older and surgery to teens 13 and older. This advice reflects the organization’s adoption of a more active position on childhood obesity.Yet the lifestyle programs the AAP recommends are expensive, inaccessible to most children and hard to maintain. Few weight-loss drugs have been approved for children. And surgery has potential risks and few long-term safety data. Furthermore, it’s not clear whether interventions in youngsters help to improve health or merely add to the psychological burden overweight kids face from the society.Rather than paying close attention to numbers on a scale, the U. S. and countries with similar trends should focus on an underlying truth:we need to invest in more and safer places for children to play where they can move and run around, climb and jump, ride and skate.Why is it so hard to get kids moving? Experts blame the problem on the privatization of sports — as public investment in school-based athletics dwindles, expensive private leagues have grown, leaving many kids out. In addition to fewer opportunities at school, researchers cite increased screen time and a lack of safe places for them to play outside the home. New York City, for example, had 2,067 public playgrounds as of 2019 — a very small amount for its large population. In Los Angeles in 2015, only 33 percent of youths lived within walking distance of a park.Kids everywhere need more places to play.

How does the sun feel on your skin? Listen to the sounds of nature, like the birds and rustling leaves, or observe the shapes and colors of the flowers. “Wu wei” comes much easier when you pay attention to what’s happening in the present moment, in a friendly and curious way.Lao Tzu, an ancient Chinese philosopher and the founder of Taoism, once said: “If you are depressed, you are living in the past.
