The University is close to many dynamic and multicultural suburbs such as Annandale, Newtown, Chippendale and Glebe. A great place to search is our large online database of properties.‎ ‎--sydney.edu.au/campus-life/accommodation/live-off-campus.html ‎1. Where can you find a place to live temporarily?‎ A. On “sydney.edu.au/colleges”.‎ B. On “sydney.edu.au/accommodation/short-term”.‎ C. On “sydney.edu.au/campus-life/accommodation/live-on-campus.html”.‎ D.

What is the most popular choice among students?‎ A. Living off campus.‎ B. Living in host families.‎ C. Living in self-catered flats on campus.‎ D. Living in fully catered houses on campus.‎ 本文是一篇广告布告类阅读。文章介绍了当你搬到悉尼的时候，选择在哪儿居住也许是你要做的最大的决定之一。本文对你会有一定的帮助。‎ ‎【答案】1. B 2. D 3. A ‎【1题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据Temporary arrival accommodation部分的Before you move to Sydney, we recommend that you book a temporary place to stay. Once you get here, you can look for longer-term accommodation.可知，在你去悉尼以前，你可以预订一个临时居住的地方。一旦你到那里以后，你可以寻找长期居住的地方。再结合下面提供的网址信息--sydney.edu.au/accommodation/short-term，‎ 可以找到答案。B选项正确。‎ ‎【2题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据On-campus residences (self-catered)部分的These residences provide modern single-study rooms with large common living, learning and study spaces, shared kitchens, a theatre, gyms, soundproofed music rooms, art studios, sky lounges and rooftop gardens.可知，生活在QMB的学生是可以进入体育馆的。故D选项正确。‎ ‎【3题详解】‎ 推理判断题。由Off-campus living部分第一句 “More than 90 percent of our students live off campus.”可推知，超过90％的学生选择外宿。故A选项正确。‎ B Essentially, everyone has two ages. a chronological（按时间计算的）age, how old the calendar says you are, and a biological age, basically the age at which your body functions as it compares to average fitness or health levels.‎ ‎“Chronological age isn’t how old we really are. It’s merely a number,” said Professor David Sinclair at Harvard University. “It is biological age that determines our health and ultimately our lifespan. We all age biologically at different rates according to our genes, what we eat, how much we exercise, and what environment we live in. Biological age is the number of candles we really should be blowing out. In the future, with advances in our ability to control biological age, we may have even fewer candles on our birthday cake than the previous one.”‎ To calculate biological age, Professor Levine at Yale University identified nine biomarker(生物标志) that seemed to be the most influential on lifespan by a simple blood test. The numbers of those markers, such as blood sugar and immune(免疫的) measures, can be put into the computer, and the algorithm（算式;算法）does the rest.‎ Perhaps what’s most important here is that these measures can be changed. Doctors can take this information and help patients make changes to lifestyle, and hopefully take steps to improve their biological conditions. “I think the most exciting thing about this research is that these things aren’t set in stone,” Levine said. “People can be given the information earlier and take steps to improve their health before it’s too late.”‎ Levine even entered her own numbers into the algorithm. She was surprised by the results. “I always considered myself a very healthy person. I’m physically active; I eat what I consider a fairly healthy diet. But I did not find my results to be as good as I had hoped they would be. It was a wake-up call,” she said.‎ Levine is working with a group to provide access to the algorithm online so that anyone can calculate their biological age, identify potential risks and take steps to improve their own health in the long run. “No one wants to live an extremely long life with a lot of chronic（慢性的）diseases,”‎ Levine said. “By delaying the development of mental and physical functioning problems, people can still be engaged in society in their senior years. That is the ideal we should be pursuing.”‎ ‎4. By saying “we may have even fewer candles on our birthday cake than the previous one” in Para. 2, the author means .‎ A. we don’t have to celebrate our birthday every year B. we are chronologically older than last year C. we might be less happy than the previous year D. we may be biologically younger than the year before ‎5. According to Prof. Levine, what is the most exciting thing about her research?‎ A. The measures are not fixed.‎ B. Health services can be set up.‎ C. The problems are not that serious.‎ D. The research results are written in stone.‎ ‎6. What does the author want to tell us by Levine’s example in Para. 5?‎ A. It is necessary to change our diet regularly.‎ B. The test results may give us wrong information.‎ C. Waking up early in the morning is good for our fitness.‎ D. The algorithm can reveal our potential health problems.‎ ‎7. The ultimate goal of Levine’s research is to .‎ A. free people from chronic diseases B. work out a solution to genetic problems C. keep people socially active even in old age D. provide people with access to scientific theory 本文是一篇说明文。基本上，每个人都有两个年龄：一个是实际年龄；一个是生理年龄。生理年龄决定了我们的健康，最终决定了我们的寿命。‎ ‎【答案】4. D 5. A 6. D 7. C ‎【4题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第二段中的 In the future, with advances in our ability to control biological age, we may have even fewer candles on our birthday cake than the previous one.可知在未来，随着我们在控制生物年龄方面的进步，我们的生日蛋糕上的蜡烛可能比先前的还要少”,蜡烛代表着年龄，蜡烛变少意味着我们在生理上可能比前一年更年轻”，所以选 D ‎【5题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第四段中 I think the most exciting thing about this research is that these things aren’t set in stone…People can be given the information earlier and take steps to improve their health before it’s too late.可知，这项研究最令人兴奋的地方在于人们可以采取措施来改善自己的健康，这些措施不是固定不变的，所以选 A ‎【6题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第五段中可知 Levine在算法中输入了自己的数据。 她对结果感到惊讶。 “我一直认为自己是一个非常健康的人。 我身体活跃； 我吃了我认为比较健康的饮食。 但是我发现我的结果没有我希望的那么好。 这是一个警钟，”她说。Levine以为自己很健康，但算法告诉她她的身体其实存在一些问题，所以作者是通过Levine来证明这个算法可以揭示我们潜在的健康问题，故选D项。‎ ‎【7题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根 据 最 后 一 段 中 的 By delaying the development of mental and physical functioning problems, people can still be engaged in society in their senior years. That is the ideal we should be pursuing.可知，他们的最终目标是让人们在年老的时候，依旧可以积极地进行社会生活，所以选 C C Like a tired marriage, the relationship between libraries and publishers has long been dull. E- books, however, are causing heartache. Libraries know they need digital wares, but many publishers are too cautious about piracy(盗版) and lost sales to co-operate. Among the big six, only Random House and Harper Collins license e-books with most libraries.‎ Publishers are wise to be nervous. Owners of e-readers(电子阅读器) are exactly the customers they need: book-lovers with money. If these people switch to borrowing e-books instead of buying them, what then? Electronic borrowing is awfully convenient. Unlike printed ‎ books, which must be checked out and returned to a physical library miles from where you live， book files can be downloaded at home. The files disappear from the device when they are due.‎ E-lending is not simple, however. There are lots of different and often incompatible(不兼容的) e-book formats, devices and licenses. Most libraries use a company called OverDrive, which secures rights from publishers and provides e-books and audio files in every format. Yet publishers and libraries are worried by Over Drive’s global market dominance(优势), as the company can control fees and conditions. Publishers were annoyed when OverDrive cooperated with Amazon, the world’s biggest online bookseller, last year. Owners of Amazon’s Kindle e-reader who want to borrow e-books from libraries are now redirected to Amazon’s website, where they must use their Amazon account to secure a loan.‎ According to Pew, an opinion researcher, library users are a perfect market for Amazon. Late last year Amazon introduced its Kindle Owners’ Lending Library, which lets its best customers borrow free one of thousands of popular books each month.‎ Library supporters argue that book borrowers are also book buyers and that libraries are vital spaces for readers to discover new works. Many were cheered by a recent Pew survey»which found that more than half of Americans with library cards say they prefer to buy their e-books.‎ So publishers keep adjusting their lending arrangements in search of the right balance.‎ Random House raised its licensing price’s earlier this year, and Harper Collins limits libraries to lending its titles 26 times.‎ ‎8. It can be inferred from Paragraph 1 that ________.‎ A. several big publishers have sold e-books to libraries B. most publishers are hesitant to cooperate with libraries C. libraries are eager to keep strong relationship with publishers D. libraries and publishers face the same problem of e-books’ piracy ‎9. Why are publishers worried that people will switch to electronic borrowing?‎ A. E-books must be checked out and returned to libraries regularly.‎ B. There is no time limit for the book files downloaded on the device.‎ C. There are lots of different and incompatible e-book formats available.‎ D. Book sales may drop sharply because of convenient electronic borrowing.‎ ‎10. We can learn from the text that ________.‎ A. Amazon is adopting measures to win more customers B. e-books can be lent at libraries as many times as you like C. Over Drive distributes e-books and audio files to publishers D. over half of Americans are borrowing e-boo from libraries ‎11. What is the best title for the text?‎ A. The Hopeful Future of Publishing Business B. The Uncertain Economics of Lending E-books C. The Dull Relationship between Libraries and Publishers D. The Close Cooperation between OverDrive and Amazon 本文是一篇说明文，介绍了电子借阅经济的不确定性。‎ ‎【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. B ‎【8题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“but many publishers are too cautious about piracy(盗版)and lost sales to co-operate.”可知，大多数出版商对盗版和销售损失过于谨慎，不愿与图书馆合作，故B项正确。‎ ‎【9题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Electronic borrowing is awfully convenient. Unlike printed books, which must be checked out and returned to a physical library miles from where you live， book files can be downloaded at home.”可知，电子借阅非常方便，因此推断，出版商担心人们会转向图书借阅是因为图书销售可能会因为方便的电子借阅而急剧下降，故D项正确。‎ ‎【10题详解】‎ 细节理解题。根据第四段中的“Late last year Amazon introduced its Kindle Owners' Lending Library, which lets its best customers borrow free one of thousands of popular books each month.”可知，去年晚些时候，亚马逊推出了Kindle用户借阅图书馆，让最优秀的客户每月免费借阅数千本畅销书中的一本，由此可知，亚马逊正在采取措施来赢得更多的客户，故A项正确。‎ ‎【11题详解】‎ 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文由出版商和图书馆的关系入手，介绍了虽然电子借阅很方便，但大多数出版商不愿与图书馆合作，拒绝授予图书馆电子书的许可，使电子借阅经济难以预料，也就是介绍了电子借阅经济的不确定性，故B项正确。‎ D One of the most inspiring quotes I ever heard was by Brian Tracy. He said: “The difference between successful people and unsuccessful people is that successful people fail many more times than unsuccessful people.” I personally experienced the wisdom of that understanding right after my first book was published. Like many authors，I expected hundreds of bookstore customers lining up for me to sign copies for them. I’m afraid to say, it didn’t quite happen like that.‎ My first signing was arranged at the largest bookstore in the city. Filled with anticipation，I was put into a private signing room in the beautiful store. Despite a nice sign placed outside the room exhibiting images of both me and my book, not a single customer entered the room. As each minute passed, I became increasingly anxious.‎ Do they not like the title? I wondered. Do they not like the book cover?‎ After 90 minutes of this torture, I was absolutely distraught.‎ For the four years writing the book, I had felt a sense of mission and purpose like never before in my life. Working a full 8-hour day in my clinic, I had to get into bed by 9:30 pm every day, so I could wake up at 5:30 in the morning and have two hours of writing before heading into my clinic. Before I ever began each writing session, I would close my eyes for 10 minutes and then whisper, “Please grant me the words to touch just one person’s life”‎ Now, sitting there alone at my first book signing，I wondered if my entire life wasn’t just a big joke. At that moment, just when I couldn’t feel any worse, a middle-aged couple walked into the room. I managed to hide my emotions and introduced myself and my book. There was something different about the way they were looking at me that I couldn’t quite identify. But I didn’t know what else to say. The couple turned to each other, and the husband nodded to his wife. She then told me, “I think we’ll get the book.” My heart began to pound. But I realized the woman was trying to say something else.‎ ‎“The reason we’re buying it，” she said hesitantly, “is because our son committed suicide two years ago. Maybe your story will help us get over it.”‎ At that moment, I knew if I never sold another copy of the book, my four years of writing it had served its purpose. Although I would have many more challenging years until my book caught on and sold well, this couple’s story was all the motivation I needed at that point to keep ‎ me moving ahead. Thanks to them, I would come to the realization that the greatest of lives are made all in the same way: One challenge one hurdle one step and one small victory at a time.‎ ‎12. The writer quotes Brian Tracy to emphasize the importance of _________.‎ A. conscience B. success C. confidence D. perseverance ‎13. The word “distraught” (paragraph 4) probably means ________.‎ A. bored and impatient B. cheerful and proud C. upset and disappointed D. miserable and ashamed ‎14. What can be inferred from paragraph 5?‎ A. The writer had to quit his job to make time for his writing.‎ B. The writer was not sure about the purpose of his writing at first.‎ C. The writing was completed with great self-discipline and efforts.‎ D. The process of writing the book was full of pains and frustration.‎ ‎15. By saying “my four years of writing it had served its purpose”, the author probably means that _________.‎ A. he had succeeded in selling his first book to the couple B. he had managed to touch someone’s life with his book C. he was quite satisfied with the feedback of his readers D. he had found someone who appreciated his writing 本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了在作者的新书签售会上，一对失去儿子的中年夫妇让他认识到生活中所有伟大的东西都是以挑战和障碍的方式创造出来的。‎ ‎【答案】12. D 13. C 14. C 15. B ‎【12题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“One of the most inspiring quotes I ever heard was by Brian Tracy. He said: “The difference between successful people and unsuccessful people is that successful people fail many more times than unsuccessful people.””可知，布莱恩·特雷西说“成功的人和不成功的人的区别在于，成功的人失败的次数比不成功的人多得多”，言外之意，成功的人即使是失败了很多次仍然会坚持，由此可知，作者引用布莱恩·特雷西说的这句话就是为了强调坚持（对于成功）的重要性，故D项正确。‎ ‎【13题详解】‎ 词义猜测题。根据画线词前的“Despite a nice sign placed outside the room exhibiting images of both me and my book, not a single customer entered the room. As each minute passed, I became increasingly anxious.”及“Do they not like the title? I wondered. Do they not like the book cover?”可知，尽管房间外面挂着一个漂亮的招牌，上面有作者和他的书的照片，但没有一个顾客走进房间，随着时间的流逝，作者变得越来越焦虑，他在想“他们不喜欢这个标题吗？他们不喜欢这本书的封面吗？”，这样胡思乱想了一个半小时，作者一定会感到心烦意乱（既沮丧又失望），由此可知画线词词义为“沮丧和失望”，故C项正确。‎ ‎【14题详解】‎ 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“For the four years writing the book, I had felt a sense of mission and purpose like never before in my life. Working a full 8-hour day in my clinic, I had to get into bed by 9:30 pm every day, so I could wake up at 5:30 in the morning and have two hours of writing before heading into my clinic.”可知，在写这本书的四年里，作者感到了一种前所未有的使命感，在诊所工作了整整8个小时后他每天晚上9:30就得上床睡觉，这样就可以在早上5:30醒来，在去诊所之前有两个小时的写作时间，由此可知作者的这本书是在他的自律和努力下完成的，故C项正确。‎ ‎【15题详解】‎ 词句猜测题。倒数第二段那位女士说他们的儿子两年前自杀了，他觉得作者的书会帮助他们度过这段黑暗期，再结合第五段中的“Before I ever began each writing session, I would close my eyes for 10 minutes and then whisper, “Please grant me the words to touch just one person’s life””可知，每次在开始写作之前，作者都会闭上眼睛10分钟，然后低声说:“请给我一些话，让我触动一个人的生活，因此作者说“花了四年时间写的这本书已经达到了它的目的”的意思就是他设法用他的书来触动某个人（这对中年夫妇）的生活，故B项正确。‎ 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10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，选项中有两项为多余选项。‎ Directions: Read the following passage. Fill in each blank with a proper sentence given in the box. Each sentence can be used only once. Note that there are two more sentences than you need.‎ Most of us would like to have a bright, “white” smile—filled with teeth that would make a Hollywood actor proud. Studies show that up to 52 percent of people are dissatisfied with the ‎ color of their teeth. ___16___ Globally, rows of pearl-white teeth shine out from magazines and cinema screens.‎ It is hardly surprising, then, that we tend to think that white teeth are not only attractive but also healthy. However, new studies have revealed that pearly teeth don’t always mean great oral health.‎ ‎___17___ It can be based on our genes and ages. As you get older, your teeth often become yellower as the enamel（牙釉质）—the hard white outer layer of teeth—begins to wear away. Eating, drinking, smoking and taking certain medications might also discolor your teeth. These stains don’t actually indicate a problem with dental health. You can have pearl-white teeth and still have cavities（龋齿的洞）. Likewise, you can have perfectly healthy teeth that are yellowish or even brownish. ___18___‎ There is even one type of stain that some researchers believe might protect against tooth decay. This is the “black stain” which you sometimes see along teeth at the edges of the gum line（牙龈线）. It can look like a series of dark dots. While the cause of the black stain has been in debate for more than a century, some studies have found that children with the stain are less likely to have tooth decay. It’s thought that some microbes in the stain might be somehow protective.‎ So what if you still want pearl-white teeth, regardless of what they say about your health? There is a wide range of products you can use. Some kinds of toothpaste promise a whitening effect. Most of them contain substances that rub stains off your teeth. Others add some blueish substances to your yellowish teeth, resulting in a bright white color. ___19___‎ Of course, unless you continue using the product or receiving the whitening treatment, the whiteness will only last for as long as you avoid the foods and drinks that cause the stains in the first place. But now you know that even without that Hollywood white smile, it doesn’t mean you don’t have healthy teeth.‎ A.Many of the experiments on tooth color have been conducted in laboratory test tubes, rather than in the mouths of living people.‎ B.In countries such as the United States, tooth whitening is one of the most commonly requested dental treatments.‎ C.The color of our teeth is influenced by a number of factors.‎ D.It is no surprise that the red wine leaves the strongest stains.‎ AB. There are also professional whitening treatments, but whitening can cause temporary sensitivity in some people’s teeth or gums.‎ AC. Of course, in some cases, discoloration can indicate decay or other diseases, so it is worth getting stains checked out by a dentist.‎ 本文是一篇说明文，介绍了影响牙齿的颜色的几个因素以及牙齿不白并不代表你的口腔不健康。‎ ‎【答案】16. B 17. C 18. AC 19. AB ‎【16题详解】‎ 空前说表明，高达52%的人对牙齿的颜色不满意，此处举例证明人们对牙齿的颜色不满意，‎ 故B项（在美国等国家，牙齿美白是最常见的牙科治疗要求之一）符合语境。故选B。‎ ‎【17题详解】‎ 空后从基因、年龄、吃、喝、吸烟和服用药物等几个方面介绍了对牙齿的颜色的影响，此处是主题句，讲的是影响牙齿的颜色的因素有很多，故C项（我们牙齿的颜色受许多因素的影响）符合语境，故选C。‎ ‎【18题详解】‎ 空前说同样的，你也可以拥有完全健康的黄牙，甚至是棕色的，这说明不是白色并不代表你的牙齿不健康，接下来此处讲的是不正常的变色情况，故AC项（当然，在某些情况下，变色可能意味着腐烂或其他疾病，所以让牙医检查污渍是值得的）符合语境。故选AC。‎ ‎【19题详解】‎ 空前说有些牙膏有美白的功效，它们中的大多数含有能擦掉牙齿上污渍的物质，另一些则是在淡黄的牙齿上添加一些蓝色物质，从而产生亮白色，此处接着介绍另外一种美白牙齿的方法，故AB项（也有专业的美白治疗，但美白会导致一些人的牙齿或牙龈暂时敏感）符合语境。故选AB。‎ ‎【点睛】主题句是六选四的常见考点，通常位于段首，抓住空后介绍的多角度（方面）是关键，例如本篇第2空，根据空的“It can be based on our genes and ages.”及“Eating, drinking, smoking and taking certain medications might also discolor your teeth.”可知，本段从基因、年龄、吃、喝、吸烟和服用药物等几个方面介绍了对牙齿的颜色的影响，此处为段落主题句，讲的是影响牙齿的颜色的因素有很多，故C项（我们牙齿的颜色受许多因素的影响）符合语境。‎ 第二部分 语言应用（共三节，满分45分）‎ 第一节 完形填空（共20小题；每小题1.5分，满分30分）‎ Taking Chances My mother recently read me a speech she had made at a local high school， hoping to ___20___ my endless quest for answers to everything．‎ Ever since I was very young ， _____21_____of making mistakes ， I've asked countless times，"What should I do？" I don't remember clearly when I_____22_____ only to do things the "right" way，and made "doing it the right way" my motto．‎ However， sometime during my high school years， I _____23_____ ． Maybe it was when I decided to try for the lead in "Beauty and the Beast．" Never mind that I would have to memorize ___24___and rehearse movements ， I would take the chance that I might _____25_____． On the day of tryouts， my heart was pounding；my hands were ____26____badly when I got up to sing．But when I opened my mouth ， the sound was loud and _____27_____． I reached for the high notes that sometimes were ____28____ my reach． I was trying to do my best even though I might fail．___29___ I didn't!‎ The audition （试镜） was definitely an _____30_____part of the process ． I realized that if I wanted to live life to the fullest， I had to take____31____．‎ Now ， I do take these chances ， with baby steps ， every day ； voicing my opinions in class discussions or debates，____32____ for a high note in church choir， riding my horse over a three ﹣foot jump．‎ Three years ago， I broke my back when I fell from my horse．The _____33_____meant I couldn't try out for basketball， which I loved． And， the day I _____34_____ out for track was the first day my doctor allowed me to do any physical activity at all． The coach didn't take me， so I started running with my mom ． No stop ﹣watches ． No cheering crowds ． I didn't ____35____the track team， but I didn't fail， either．‎ I have finally learned to _____36_____myself ， like taking a tough science course ． And I have come to realize that even though my parents， friends and teachers don't always have the_____37_____ to "What should I do？"， they will be there to ____38____me when I try．‎ ‎"Life is learning to deal with Plan B，" my mother _____39_____ in her speech． But I now know that the Plan A's I make for my life will become easier and easier with every chance I take．‎ ‎20.

While on the road, I remembered that I did not have any money in my pocket, I did not even take my cell phone with me to make a call home．‎ At the same time, I went through a noodle shop, and I suddenly felt very hungry. I wished for a bowl of noodles, but I had no money!‎ The seller saw me standing before the counter and asked, "Hey little girl, you want to eat a bowl？"‎ ‎"But …but I do not carry money …" I shyly replied．‎ ‎"Okay, I'll treat you．" the seller said, "come in, I will cook you a bowl．"‎ A few minutes later the owner brought me a steaming bowl of noodles. After eating some pieces, I cried．‎ ‎"What is it？" He asked．‎ ‎"Nothing. I am just touched by your kindness!" I said as I wiped my tears. "Even a stranger on the street gives me a bowl of noodles, and my mother, after a quarrel, chased me out of the house. She is cruel （残忍的）!!"‎ The seller sighed, "Girl, why did you think so? Think again. I only gave you a bowl of noodles and you felt that way. Your mother has been taking care of you since you were little, why were you not grateful and why did you hurt your mom？"‎ I was really surprised after hearing that．‎ Why did I not think of that？ A bowl of noodles from a stranger made me feel grateful, and my mother has raised me since I was little and I have never felt so, not even a little．‎ 注意：‎ ‎1. 所续写短文的词数应为 150 左右；‎ ‎2. 应使用 5 个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语；‎ ‎3. 续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好；‎ ‎4. 续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语．‎ Paragraph 1：‎ Just at that moment, many memories came back into my mind．‎ ‎_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ Paragraph 2：‎ When arriving home, I saw my mother sitting at the dinner table, worried and tired．‎ ‎_____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________‎ ‎【答案】Paragraph 1；‎ Just at that moment, many memories came back into my mind. （高分句型一）When I was ill, she was always the one taking care of me． When I had trouble with my study, she never lost faith in me and encouraged me to keep going. When I arrived home during the weekend, she always prepared my favorite food, All her kindness came back to me. I should be grateful for all she had done for me, I realized I should go back home immediately and say sorry to my mother. （要点 1 和妈妈吵架之后 的内疚情绪）‎ Paragraph 2：‎ When arriving home, I saw my mother sitting at the dinner table, worried and tired.（高分句型二）She must have been looking for me everywhere. I was ready for her anger and shouts. However, before I could apologize, my mother saw me and gently said, Oh, honey, you're back! Come inside. You are probably very hungry? I cooked your favorite noodles. Come and eat while they are still hot. No longer able to control myself， 1 cried in her arms. I'm sorry, Mom, please forgive me, " I whispered to her with tears, extremely ashamed of myself. （要点 2 回家向妈妈道歉）‎ ‎【详解】本篇书面表达是读后续写。通过阅读所给文章可知，作者因为和妈妈吵架跑了出去。之后他饿了，但是没带钱，幸运的是好心的店主给了她一碗面条，她因为感动而落泪。而店主知道后对她说，自己就给了你一碗面就让你这么感激，而你小时候母亲一直在照顾你，为什么你不感恩，为什么？你伤害了你妈妈吗？店主的话让作者开始反思自己。‎ 续写部分分为两段，第一段开头是：就那一瞬间，很多回忆涌入脑海……，所以这一段应该写我的回忆。要详细描写妈妈是如何照顾我支持我的。第二段开头是：回到家之后，我看见妈妈坐在餐桌边，担忧又疲惫。本段应该写我回到家之后妈妈的反应，妈妈没有责怪我，反而在关心我。我因为愧疚向妈妈道歉，希望能得到她的原谅。‎ 续写时要求使用5个以上短文中标有下划线的关键词语增加了写作难度，我们要熟悉所给划线词语，恰当的时候加以运用。最后还要注意所续写短文的词数应为150左右；续写完成后，请用下划线标出你所使用的关键词语。按要求完成写作任务。‎ ‎【点睛】本文描写详略得当，使用了高级词汇。如：lose faith in，be grateful for，whisper to等高级词汇。还使用了过去分词做伴随状语I whispered to her with tears, extremely ashamed of myself.也使用了定语从句：I should be grateful for all she had done for me（that引导的定语从句，that从句中作定语被省略了）。‎
