题目内容

【题目】 We moved away from my grandmother when I was eight years old. I missed her a lot. I was her favourite granddaughter and she was my favourite grandma.

Two years later, my mother and father separated and soon divorced. I felt as if my world was falling apart. I lived with my mother for a time, next door to my grandma and grandpa in a house while my father was away during World War Ⅱ.

Grandma never had much in the way of money or material things. But it was the little things she gave me that let me feel warm, like letting me dip my fingers in the sugar bowl,letting me sip the coffee from her cup or allowing me to sit on the table as I had meals.

Though she didn’t have much, she did something for my brother and me. I will always remember she saved her coins in a glass jar. I thought my grandma could have used these coins herself, but she saved them to give us when we came to visit her.

I don’t remember how much we collected on our visits, nor was the amount important. It was the idea that she remembered us, and cared about us when we were away from her.

【题目】 Most of the time, we know what weather is heading our way— thanks to meteorologists (气象学家). 1 Will it be sunny or rainy, hot or cold? And every day, meteorologists work hard to predict what the weather will be like.

For some, an interest in weather starts early. It did for Samantha Gibbons, a 10-year-old girl from the USA.2. Every week, Samantha studies the science behind weather through the Internet. In January, she was the youngest kid to attend the 2015 American Meteorological Society (AMS) Annual Meeting. During the Q&A discussion at the event, she asked the experts how a halo ( a ring of light around a moon or sun ) appears.3 “ I was very excited to take part in the meeting ! It was like I was meant to be there,” said Samantha.

Not only does Samantha study the numbers behind weather, but she also practices speaking on air.4 “ I love being on TV.” she said.

On September 3, 2014, Samantha made her first TV show on NBC Channel 12 in Phoenix, USA. Before her appearance, she woke up at 4 a.m. to arrive at the station by 5:30 a.m., a typical morning for many meteorologists. “To prepare, I practiced in front of the mirror,” said Samantha. “I learned I needed a lot of practice on camera!”5 What’s her advice for other kids interested in becoming meteorologists? “Ask lots of questions,” said Samantha. “Always believe in what you’re doing and keep making your dream come true.”

A.As a member of her school’s broadcast (电视节目) club, she helps produce the school’s morning programs.

B.Every day, people turn to the TV, computer, or radio to find out.

C.Her future plans are simple: do well in school and practice broadcasting.

D.One of them answered her question.

E.She says she loves watching the weather.

【题目】Courtesy in English

Courtesy(礼貌) is an art form that shows our moral character. China's history is one of a civilization(文明) with a highly developed sense of etiquette(礼仪); therefore, we should speak English as politely as possible when we go abroad.

1Being polite when you ask for something is very important. Beginning your request with "May I...?""Could I...?" is considered polite. For example, "May I have a latte". It is also politer to say “I’ll have...” or “I’d like...” instead of “I want...”. Because it will be considered less direct.

2We should say “Excuse me” or “Do you mind if I ask you something?” We should not ask our questions directly. Instead, for example, we should say "Could you tell me where the restrooms are?"

3Local people in other communities sometimes speak really fast, so it can be hard for us to catch all the words. In such a situation, we can say "Pardon me?" to ask them to repeat what they said. In my opinion, saying "Can you please repeat that? I didn't follow" is the politest way.

4It is also important to know how to refuse someone's invitation. If we really can't make it, we can first say "I'd like to." and then say "but l have to work late" for example. Or "I’m afraid I can't" or even "That sounds great, but ...".

5We can use sentences like "I see what you're saying, but I think..."or "You could be right, but don't forget that..."or even "Yes, that's true, but I'm not sure that...".These are great ways to express disagreement politely by being less direct.

A.Refusing an invitation.

B."Please" and "thank you" go along way when we speak to each other.

C.Asking for help.

D.Ordering meals.

E.Expressing disagreement.

F.Can't catch what's been said?
