第二节  读写任务（共1小题；满分25分）            阅读下面的短文，然后根据

以下的任务和写作要求，写一篇150词以上的英语短文。

   【写作内容】  本篇文章叙述的是 “假如我又回到了童年，我就会有各种各样的设想” 这样一个主题。请阅读下面这篇文章后，简明扼要地复述这篇文章的基本内容以及本篇文章的主旨大意；然后根据这篇文章所叙述的各种各样的情况，结合现实生活，用120词以上就“If I were a boy again, …”为标题，谈一谈假如你又回到了童年，你的设想又是什么呢？

If I were a boy again, I would practise my perseverance（毅力） more often, and never give up a thing because it was hard or inconvenient. If we want light, we must conquer(战胜) darkness. Perseverance can sometimes equal genius（天赋） in its results. If I were a boy again, I would school myself into a habit of attention; I would let nothing come between me and the subject in hand. I would remember that a good skater never tries to skate in two directions at once. The habit of attention would become part of our life if we began early enough. If I were to live my life over again, I would pay more attention to the cultivation（培养）of the memory. I would strengthen that skill by every possible way, and on every possible occasion. It takes a little hard work at first to remember things accurately; But memory soon helps itself, and gives very little trouble. It only needs early cultivation to become a power.
