Her family had just moved here from San Francisco,having bought a small restaurant, which was set to open in the next few days."Moving here was a dumb idea," Sophia grumbled,mostly to herself. The girl had been joyless about the move, but her parents had made the decision and were now too busy getting ready for the grand opening to listen to her complaints.The first few days at her new school hadn't been easy,either. She found it hard to talk to people she didn't know, and it seemed like the students hadn't even noticed her. Sophia sighed and got back to washing dishes.On the day of the grand opening,Sophia' s parents were all smiling,welcoming customers into the restaurant, brightly decorated in gold and red. Even Sophia was in a good mood as she rushed around,seating guests,handing out menus,and pouring tall glasses of water. This was a big day for her family.At one of the tables sat a family with two daughters who were about Sophia' s age. As she filled their glasses,Sophia realized the twins were in her class,Emily and Jenny. Sophia ducked her head down so her long hair covered her face,and she turned away from the table.Sophia' s mother found her soon after, in the kitchen loading the dishwasher.“Honey, what are you doing back here? We need you out front with the customers. ”“Mom, I don't want to be out there. There are kids from school!”"So?” her mother asked.“That's good! Go take them some fortune cookies and say hello!”She clucked her tongue disapprovingly at Sophia and disappeared out of the kitchen.Sophia frowned. She grabbed a handful of fortune cookies that they gave out after every meal,but first she tore open a wrapper and cracked a cookie open for herself. She popped a sweet, 2
crunchy piece in her mouth, and absently read the fortune paper it held."Many friends are found with a single smile,” it read.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。Sophia sighed. She put a handful of cookies into a small tray and left the kitchen.
Sophia blushed and nodded. This girl knew her name?第二节【参考范文】Sophia sighed. She put a handful of cookies into a small tray and left the kitchen.Gathering up her courage,Sophia approached the table where the twins and their parents were finishing their meals. She placed the cookies down, and bravely looked the girls in the eyes. She smiled.“Thanks so much for coming to our restaurant! I hope you liked everything,"Sophia said. One of the girls exclaimed,reaching for the cookies, while the other sister looked closely at Sophia. Then her eyes lit up with recognition. “Hey! You're that new girl in our class, right? Isn't your name Sophia?”Sophia blushed and nodded. This girl knew her name?“Yeah,that's me," she answered.“I thought I recognized you! I'm Emily and that's my sister,Jenny.”They chattered casually for a while. After Emily invited Sophia to join a party the next day,saying they would introduce her to their friends,Sophia tried to downplay the swell of happiness she felt, but she wasn't succeeding. Heading back to the kitchen,Sophia whispered to herself: the fortune paper was right; many friends are found with a single smile.湖南省长郡中学2020-2021学年高二上学期期中英语试卷第二节(满分20分)67.阅读下面短文,根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。It may help you to know that there is no such thing as a perfect speech. At some point in every speech, every speaker says something that is not understood exactly as he has planned. Fortunately, such moments are usually not obvious to the listeners. Why? Because the listeners do not know what the speaker plans to say. They hear only what the speaker does say. If you lose your 3
place for a moment, wrongly change the order of a couple of sentences, or forget to stop at a certain point, no one will be any the wiser. When such moments occur, don't worry about them. Just continue as if nothing happened.Even if you do make an obvious mistake during a speech, that doesn't really matter. If you have ever listened to Martin Luther King's famous speech-"I Have a Dream”, you may notice that he stumbles(结巴) over his words twice during the speech. Most likely, however, you don't remember. Why? Because you were fixing your attention on his message rather than on his way of speech-making.People care a lot about making a mistake in a speech because they regard speech- making as a kind of performance rather than as an act of communication. They feel the listeners are like judges in an ice-skating competition. But, in fact, the listeners are not looking for a perfect performer. They are looking for a well-though-out speech that expresses the speaker's ideas clearly and directly. Sometimes a mistake or two can actually increase a speaker's attractiveness by making him more human.As you work on your speech, don't worry about being perfect. Once you free you mind of this, you will find it much easier to give your speech freely.67.【参考范文】There is no perfect speech as every speaker makes a mistake, which listeners may not notice, so just go on.(要点一)It doesn't matter when you make mistakes sometimes, because listeners focus on the thoughts rather than the way a speech is made.(要点二)Actually,a mistake or two can make a speaker more attractive and more human.(要点三)Therefore,take it easy,and it will be much easier to make a speech freely.(要点四)湖南省娄底市2020-2021学年高二上学期期中考试英语试题第二节 (满分25分)阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。A funny thing happened to Arthur when he was on the way to work one day.As he walked along Park Avenue near the First National Bank,he heard the sound of someone trying to start a car.He tried again and again but couldn’t get the car moving.Arthur turned and looked inside at the face of a young

The tower’s walls are full of holes of various sizes, allowing visitors to enjoy different views of landscapes as they climb the staircase to the top of the tower.The watchtower on the mountaintop of Linchunling Forest Park is an ideal place to get a bird’s-eye view of Sanya. It has five floors and is 195.6 meters high. Modeled like an ancient pavilion (亭), the tower is painted in red and has been praised for its beauty.The Tower of the Silk Road in the fishing port in Sanya’s Y azhou district is the tallest lighthouse in China, with a height of 95 meters. Sanya had been an important part of the ancient Maritime (海洋) Silk Road. The tower was built in the shape of Zun , type of Chinese wine cup.Built during the reign(统治) of Emperor Xianfeng (831-1861), Yingwang Tower in Sanya has seven floors and is about 15 meters high.

It was difficult for an independent girl like me to accept it at first. At times, my financial situation is not the best. But with that comes a great lesson in appreciation, budgeting, and deciding what is and what isn't important.A few times I've had to put off or even give up things. Because of my scarcity on money, I had to give up a keep-fit exercise, which is something I like to treat myself regularly. When my coach Lisa heard about this, she offered me training at a highly discounted price. At first this made me very uncomfortable. I feared that she would wrongly think that I was going to bargain (砍价) and of course I wasn't. Instead, I was just being honest about my situation being short of money. I finally accepted her offer, remembering that I deserve kindness, too.Another time, I noticed a friend of mine selling his old exercise bike, which was perfect for me, as I was looking to replace my broken one. I told him that I would take it when I had the money, but then life got in the way. When I finally got the time to pick it up, I realized my financial shortcomings again, I asked him if he could hold onto it for one more week, as then I'd have the funds again. He was happy to do this, but instead he insisted on offering me the bike as a gift. Another opportunity presents itself to teach me how to receive with dignity(尊严).I continue to slowly learn how to accept the kindness from others. In fact, the relationship between giving and receiving is closely linked. When you accept the kindness from others with joy, they will feel happy, too.24.

She borrowed it from her friend.CSince I became a full-time free-lancer (自由作家), I've found one of the hardest things to do is to get up early. Without the danger of being fired, there just hasn't been a lot of motivation (动机) to get out of bed.I've quickly learned that getting up is the key to success and better yet: waking up early is really just a habit.The most important thing to keep in mind is that you must have strong reasons to get out of bed. Motivation is the only thing keeping us from lying in bed all day.Writing down all the big and important things you'll do the next day can give you an extra push in your goal to wake up early and quickly.Don't read in bed. Spending as little time as possible in bed will actually help your body realize that the bed is for sleeping, and not for lying awake for hours. The goal of reading in bed is just to help you fall asleep within 10 minutes.Stress is one of the main causes of poor sleep. Relax yourself before getting into bed. Try controlled breathing exercises or yoga to lower your stress level.These are just a few ways you can use to wake up earlier. Finding the best way is the most important, and it requires a little work. The key thing is that waking up should be a pleasant experience. If you can make waking up something you are looking forward to, you're already halfway on your journey toward becoming an early riser.28.What do we know about the author?A. He has a full-time job outside.B. He likes lying in bed all day.C. He was once fired by a company.D. He has difficulty getting up early.29.The author gives us some tips to help us ________.A. find the key to successB. become an early riserC. fall asleep within 10 minutesD. relax after a day's hard work30.Which of the following is NOT true about doing yoga?A. It is a good way to reduce stress.B. It can help you sleep.C. It can make you worried.D. It will help you wake up earlier.31.What is the point of getting up early?A. Motivation.B. Experience.C. Success.D. Ability.DEverybody, at some point in their lives, has experienced failure. It could be something as simple as not getting the job you wanted, or getting fewer marks even after hard work. But what makes you is not your failure, but how you get back up after being hit.Once, a young school boy was caught in a fire accident in his school and was assumed that he would not live. His mother was told that he was sure to die, for the terrible fire had destroyed the lower half of his body. Even if he were to survive, he would be lame throughout his life.But the brave boy did not want to die nor did he want to be lame. Much to the amazement of the doctor, he did survive. But unfortunately from his waist down, he had no motor ability. His thin legs just hung there, lifeless. Eventually he left the hospital. But his determination to walk was unshakable. At home, when he was not in bed, he had to stay in a wheelchair. One day, he threw himself from the chair and pulled himself across the grass, dragging his legs behind him. Hedetermined. He did this every day, with faith in himself that he would be able to walk unaided. With his iron determination, he did develop the ability to stand up, then to walk on and off, then to walk by himself and then to run.He began to walk to school, and then run to school, to run for the joy of running. Later in college he was on the track team.In February 1934, in New York City's Madison Square Garden, this young man who was not expected to survive, who would surely never walk, who could never hope to run-this determined young man, Dr. Glenn Cunningham, ran the world's fastest mile.A good example of the power of positive thinking and faith in one's self, Glenn Cunningham continues to be an inspiration for many, and his story, a brilliant evidence to how one can bounce back even when all difficulties are piled against one, to the degree that death seemed the preferable option.32. The first paragraph is intended to ________.A. present an argumentB. make preparations for statementC. arouse readers' interestD. function as a brief introduction33. What was the doctor's opinion about Glenn?A. Glenn was able to walk with his own great effort.B. Great determination could make a difference to Glenn.C. There was a slim chance that Glenn could survive.D. Glenn could live a normal life with the upper halt" of his body.34. What do we know about Glenn?A. Glenn inspired people with his moving story.B. Glenn took recovery exercise in hospital.C. Glenn won the first place in Marathon.D. Glenn organized a track team in college.35. What can be a suitable title for the text?A. Strengthen determinationB. Stand up after failureC. Go after dreamsD. Face difficulty bravely第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

Mary waited anxiously for her turn in the empty dressing room.Never had she been so nervous before. This competition was of vital importance to her comeback(复出)。
“If I can win today," she said to herself, “I can dance on the national stage next month.” Three months ago, her left arm was seriously injured in a car accident. After the medical treatment, she began to recover slowly. She practiced over and over again in order to regain her dancing skills.“Hi, Mary,” in rushed her friend Jessica. “How is your arm? Is it going to influence your performance?”"I guess it can be tolerated for I am to win the match,"said Mary with a determined look.“Admirable! But I hear that a girl called Linda is really gifted and strong. She can be your real well-matched e on!”After Jessica left,Mary decided to practice her most difficult spin. “If I don't try harder,I won't grasp this chance."She thought.But her arm began to hurt,making her worried."Mary, what makes you think you have a chance tonight?"she said to herself. After the pain was gone, she continued to warm up.A slim girl hurried in and put down an equipment bag on the chair. Then,she took out her dance dress quickly and put it on skillfully. Seeing Mary,she smiled politely and said "Hi,I'm Linda. I am the next one!" Mary nodded in reply but felt uncomfortable."This is just my competitor.Because of her,I may lose tonight."Her mind was wandering when Linda let out a scream,"Oh,God,I can't find my music tape!"Linda searched her bag but in vain. "It may be missing on the way."With these words,she then rushed out.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。

读后续写专题第二节读后续写(满分25分)The story between Mr. Jordan and me was the most amazing story I wanted to share. Mr. Jordan was one of the teachers who I would never forget.When I was young at school, I loved talking, a characteristic not always appreciated by Mr. Jordan, my 10-grade English teacher.Mr. Jordan was a teacher whom no one liked because he was too strict. He stood about 5-foot-five, was very thin and wore his hair pulled back in a way that gave him a horsy look. He wore those half-circular reading glasses. Whenever he got upset, he would lower his head and look at you over the top of his glasses.One day in his class I was busy talking. I didn’t realize he had stopped teaching and staring straight at me. “Sam, I would like to see you after school.”Later Mr. Jordan explained in a low, but very firm voice that showed he expected me to listen when he was talking. For punishment he told me to write a thousand-word essay on education and its effect on the society. He wanted it in by the following Wednesday.Well, I met my deadline. I was confident. It was a good paper. And I expected a sign of approval from him. The next day in class, however, he was looking at me over his glasses. He called me forward and returned my paper. “Go back a nd rewrite,” he said. “Remember, each paragraph is supported to begin with a topic sentence.” When he gave my paper back a second time, he corrected the grammar. The third time, the spelling. The fourth time, it was punctuation. The fifth, it wasn’t neat e nough. I was sick!The sixth time, I rewrote the whole paper slowly in ink, leaving generous space. When he saw it, he removed his glasses and smiled. He firmly accepted the paper. After that, I put the whole thing out of my mind.注意:续写词数应为150左右。

Whenever I try to help somebody, I always think of a nice and wise sales lady with a pair of glasses in her hand.…I was at Lens Crafters waiting to pick up my new pair of glasses. In walked a mom and her little girl. The mom was probably in her late thirties and the little girl was maybe five.Both of their clothes were badly dated to say the least . It was obvious that the family’s financial windfall(意外之财) had not yet arrived. I overheard a comment the mom made to a sales lady that she was in between the first job and the second job of the day, so she didn't have a lot of time.The little girl and the mom proceeded around the store looking at these little tiny frames for this darling's face. The sales lady was helping them try on frames, pulling aside her favorites.You know how some little kids actually look ten times cuter in glasses...that was this little girl. She found these cute little frames with a butterfly on them and her face just glowed.There was a smile ear to ear while she looked back at herself in the mirror.The sales lady rang them up(把款项记入收款机), and the mom pulled out a coupon(代金券). The sales lady glanced at the coupon and then explained that for some reason this coupon could not be used, pointing out the minuscule(小字体的) print at the bottom.Then the mom chatted back and forth for a bit with the sales lady and then finally leaned down to her daughter and explained to her that there would be no glasses today, maybe next month she said.The little girl’s eyes started to tear up. Her mom leaned in a little closer and told her that she needed a little more time to save up for them. The little girl responded with, "But Mommy, I can't see and I want to be able to see when I start school next week. I want to do good, Mommy! What if I'm in the back?"Her mom bent down explaining the importance of having strength when we didn't get what we neededsometimes, etc.At this point , a few other strangers and I were standing near the front watching the scene, tears running down our cheeks.__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The sales lady went over and bent down next to the little girl, holding the frames, and said, "Do you like this pair of glasses, sweetie?" _______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________注意:1. 续写词数应为150左石:2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
