D.To advertise a course.B I became aware of my stutter (結(jié)巴) when I was around 9, in the fourth grade.I began to see how other people viewed me.When the teacher asked the whole class questions, I never raised my hand though I knew the answer, because I knew I would stutter.Some kids would tell me that I talked funny, ask why I didn’t talk normally, or laugh at me.As soon as that started to happen, I became more introverted (內(nèi)向的). It wasn’t until the summer of 2015, before freshman year at high school.All my friends and my parents encouraged me to join the high school football team.I owed much to them, especially coach Lane who taught me how to play football.He took the time — and had the patience — to actually teach me what to do, how to do it and how to understand the concepts of play. In junior year, I started my first game for the high school team.I had a very good season and in January 2018, I signed the University of North Carolina.The older we get, the more of an understanding we have about the world and other people.So the first time my teammates in college heard me talk and heard that I stuttered, they did not say a thing.That was a big deal to me because I was so used to people making comments.My teammates actually tell me to slow down because talking faster causes me to stutter more.It’s really helped me develop confidence. Whenever I go back home to Georgia, I volunteer with children at my church, including those who have learning disabilities.I like to do that to inspire them with confidence.I had confidence issues when I was a kid because of my stutter, so I just don’t want them to have to go through what I did.In the future, I would like to start a foundation to give back to people who stutter and create a program where kids all across the world who have a stutter can have a safe space.24.Why didn’t the author raise his hand in class?A.He didn’t know the answer. B.He was too shy to speak in public.C.He was afraid of classmates’ comments. D.He showed no interest in the question.25.What was one cause of the author’s decision to play football?A.Guidance from coaches. B.Great interest in football.C.Expectations from parents. D.Encouragement from friends.26.Which of the following can best describe the author?A.Grateful and caring. B.Helpful and talkative.C.Athletic and generous.

How could they not be given how carefully they’re educated? They are coached and drilled and dieted from the earliest years of life.Whatever you demand of them, they’ll do.Whatever bar you place in front of them, they’ll clear. A friend who teaches at a top university once asked her class to memorize thirty lines of the eighteenth-century poet Alexander Pope.Every single kid got every single line correct, down to the punctuation marks.“Seeing them write out the exercise in class,” she said, “was a thing of wonder.” The problem is that students have been taught that that is all that education is: doing your homework, getting the answers, acing the test.Nothing in their training has equipped them with the sense that something larger is at risk.They’ve learned to “be a student”, not to use their minds.I was talking with someone who teaches at a branch campus of a state university.His students don’t think for themselves, he complained.Well, I said, Yale students think for themselves, but only because they know we want them to. I taught many wonderful young people during my years in the Ivy League — bright, thoughtful, creative kids whom it was a pleasure to talk with and learn from.But most of them seemed content to the colour within the lines that their education had marked out for them.Very few were passionate about ideas.Very few saw college as part of a larger project of intellectual discovery and development, one that they directed by themselves and for themselves.28.What does the author think of today’s elite students?A.They lack practical experience. B.They perform well academically.C.They have no motivation to study. D.They have a passion for new ideas.29.Why does the author give the example of some students’ memorizing Alexander Pope’s poem?A.To prove Alexander Pope’s popularity. B.To prove college students’ excellence.C.To show college students seek perfection. D.To show Alexander Pope’s poems are easy.30.What do we learn about American college students from the last two paragraphs?A.They don’t like to follow traditional rules. B.They have no passion for academic success.C.They aren’t taught to think independently. D.They aren’t well-prepared for their future lives.31.What’s the author’s attitude to American universities?A.Critical. B.Confused.C.Favourable. D.Ambiguous.D Last week, United Nations Secretary-General António Guterres created an attractive new term. The era of global warming has ended, he declared dramatically, and the era of “global boiling” has arrived.You can see why he said it. July was the hottest month on record globally. High temperatures and intense wildfires have raged across the Northern Hemisphere. Marine heatwaves are damaging the world’s third-largest coral reef, off Florida. And as greenhouse emissions keep rising, it means many even hotter summers await us.But critics have made negative comments on the phrase. Obviously, “global boiling” is clearly an exaggeration (夸張), but “global warming” is now far too weak. Many climate scientists have pushed for the term “global heating” to be used in preference. Similarly, phrases such as “climate crisis” haven’t gained enough attention. That’s because many of us still feel we haven’t seen this crisis with our own eyes.But that is changing. In the past few years, extreme weather and related events have struck many countries. Australia’s Black Summer brought bushfires that burned an area the size of the United Kingdom. Germany suffered serious flooding in 2021. The 2022 flood in Pakistan flooded large parts of the country. China has seen both drought and floods. Savage multi-year droughts have hit the Horn of Africa. India has banned rice exports due to damage from heavy rain.Opponents of climate action often complain about what they see as the overuse of “crisis talk”. If everything is a crisis, nothing is a crisis.When Guterres uses highly charged phrases, he’s not inviting us to imagine a Hollywood-style disaster. What he’s hoping is to make people listen — and act — now we can see what climate change looks like.Are there better phrases to capture this? Possibly. Take the challenge yourself: Can you think up a brief, accurate phrase to cover intensifying local and regional-scale droughts, fires, typhoons and floods? You can see how hard it is.32.What made António Guterres use the phrase “global boiling”?A.The new scientific finding. B.The comments from critics.C.The present serious situation. D.The future trend in climate change.33.Why do the phrases like “climate crisis” fail to attract our attention?A.These phrases don’t reflect the truth. B.Many disasters haven’t been reported.C.Fewer crises have happened these years. D.Climate disasters haven’t happened to us.34.What does the author try to convey by saying “But that is changing.” in Paragraph 4?A.But the situation is improving. B.But people have realized the danger.C.But more climate crises have happened. D.But people have taken effective measures.35.What does the author think of António Guterres’s saying “global boiling”?A.It’s beyond the truth. B.It’s acceptable indeed.C.He tries to frighten people. D.He aims to please the public.第二節(jié)(共5小題;每小題2.5分,滿(mǎn)分12.5分)閱讀下面短文,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。 If you’re one of the thousands of students that have decided to study in the US, you may be aware that unfortunately you cannot escape a piece of personal statement, even as an international student. Now let’s look at how to write a good personal statement. Don’t start with something common, such as “I usually visit the museums because I like history.” 36 Once you have a solid opening paragraph, think about how you can use your notes to construct several more paragraphs that will make up the body of your essay. 37 However, at this stage it’s better to have too much written down that you can then trim (刪減), than not have enough. The conclusion must round off your essay in a way that leaves a lasting good impression upon the admissions tutor. 38 Explain how this will benefit you on the course and make you a valuable asset (資產(chǎn)) to the university. 39 You can also talk about any other plans you have for the future that your university education will enable you to achieve. When your first draft is complete, don’t rely on a spellchecker to correct spelling mistakes. 40 Make sure you go through at least several rounds of this, and you’ll achieve a polished essay that will give you the best chance of success with your US college applications.A.Try to be brief and to the point.B.Not everyone knows how to write a personal statement.C.You are only given a maximum of 650 words for the statement.D.You’d better include a brief sentence or two about your career path.E.Ask tutors, family and friends to look at it and give you their feedback.F.Make sure you launch straight into telling the reader why you’re unique.G.It should be a summary of what you have learned from your experiences.36. 37. 38. 39. 40. 第三部分 語(yǔ)言運(yùn)用(共兩節(jié),滿(mǎn)分30分)第一節(jié)(共15小題;每小題1分,滿(mǎn)分15分)閱讀下面短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。 For most basketball players, making it to the NBA is the final dream.

The SAT is a test that many American colleges require as part of the admissions process.It is a multiple-choice test, 58 means students must decide which answer is the best from several 59 (provide) for each question. Higher scores can make the difference between 60 (admit) into the top colleges and universities, and how much financial aid a student may receive. Research shows that students who have greater access to college entrance exams like the SAT and ACT 61 (be) more likely to apply to colleges.This is particularly true for low-income students. 62 (traditional), students have to register and pay for the tests, then travel to testing centers on a weekend to take them.For people without the resources of a computer, credit card or car, 63 can be difficult. Some states now give college entrance exams like the ACT and SAT for free, 64 a school day during school hours. Most four-year universities and colleges require foreign students 65 (sit) an admission test such as the SAT or ACT.Each university lists the admission requirements on their website.56. 57. 58. 59. 60. 61. 62. 63. 64. 65. 第四部分 寫(xiě)作(共兩節(jié),滿(mǎn)分40分)第一節(jié)(滿(mǎn)分15分) 假定你是李華,你校國(guó)際部將組織一次海外游學(xué)活動(dòng),你很想?yún)⒓印U?qǐng)你給國(guó)際部負(fù)責(zé)人Henry寫(xiě)一封申請(qǐng)信,內(nèi)容包括: 1.提出申請(qǐng);2.你對(duì)海外游學(xué)的看法;3.希望申請(qǐng)通過(guò)。注意:1.寫(xiě)作詞數(shù)應(yīng)為80左右;2.請(qǐng)按如下格式作答。Dear Henry, Yours sincerely,Li Hua第二節(jié)(滿(mǎn)分25分)閱讀下面材料,根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開(kāi)頭語(yǔ)續(xù)寫(xiě)兩段,使之構(gòu)成一篇完整的短文。 When Thanksgiving Day was approaching, my primary school decided to celebrate it by presenting shows like dancing and singing that all students could join in.Parents would also be invited to watch. One afternoon, the schoolmaster called me into his office.He said with a smile,“Nancie, could you write a poem for the festival and read it during the coming event?” “Sure!” Excitedly, I had loved poetry since my fifth grade.I was fascinated by poems for it is an amazing thing to convey feelings through them.When my first poem was published, I was known to my friends and teachers as the class poet. I left the schoolmaster’s office that afternoon, feeling quite happy.Then for weeks, I worked on my poem, carefully designing the content, structure and sound.I practiced reciting it aloud every day. When the evening for the event finally came, I was ready.Well, I was ready until I looked around and realised how many people there were in the school hall.How could I present my poem in front of more than 400 people? I was just a seventh-grader! No one would take my work seriously.What was worse, I had never spoken in front of a huge crowd before.I sat in my chair, hoping I could disappear.Maybe they would forget I was supposed to read. “Hey, Nancie, I saw your name in the program.Good luck!” my little brother’s voice rose as he took his seat a few rows down with his class.I nodded, struggling to keep calm.I knew my parents were somewhere in the hall.Before long, the lights faded, the crowd quieted, and the schoolmaster took the stage to introduce the list of the shows.Mine was at the end of the list.So I had to sit through an hour of absolute anxiety. It wasn’t until the students from the fourth grade were singing that my teacher brought me downstairs next to the stage.My mind was blank.Then suddenly, I was on stage with the bright white lights blinding my view of the audience.When I walked to the microphone in the center of the stage, I somehow tripped over something.And I stupidly fell down.All of the kids burst into laughter.注意:1.續(xù)寫(xiě)詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右;2.請(qǐng)按如下格式作答。 I was about to run away when my teacher came up to me.

Please come again.M:Thanks! Bye!(Text 10)W:Have you all heard about the White House? Today we’re going to talk about the building that symbolizes the USA. Mr Green, please.M:The White House is one of the most recognizable structures in the world. You can’t say you’ve been to Washington D.C. if you haven’t seen the White House. Not every American president lives there. Though the Executive Mansion was begun in 1792 under the direction of George Washington, the structure was not completed until 1800, so ironically Washington never called it home. The White House is open to the public on weekdays from 10 a.m. until noon. The building was torched by British troops in 1814, during the War of 1812, and the structural damage caused by the fire was repaired, but the sandstone walls outside were still black from the fire. The walls were then painted white, giving birth to the name the building now goes by. An act of Congress made it the official name in 1920. Every President has left his mark upon the White House, with Thomas Jefferson adding grass to the east and west wings, Andrew Jackson installing running water, and Harry Truman adding a porch.

Just as a Chinese saying goes,“We need to travel thousands of miles as well as read thousands of books.” Travelling itself is a kind of learning, which can not only broaden our vision but also increase our knowledge.What’s more, understanding foreign cultures can help us to learn foreign languages better because the culture behind a language reflects its real spirit.Of course, the benefits of an overseas tour are more than these. I sincerely hope I will get such a precious chance and I’m looking forward to hearing from you. Yours sincerely,Li Hua第二節(jié) I was about to run away when my teacher came up to me.He joked I fell due to my eagerness to bow to the audience.His humour helped remove the embarrassment.Then he motivated the audience to give me encouragement.Feeling less nervous, I took the microphone and cleared my throat before reading the title.Surprisingly, my voice sounded clear and loud.The hall silenced.I continued reading, with words coming out in the right order and lines flowing together appropriately. When I finished my reading, the hall was silent at first.I swallowed hard.Maybe no one loved my poem.Then out of the silence there was clapping and cheering.I dared to look for my parents in the sea of faces, and found my mother wiping away tears and my father smiling.With a light-headed feeling and a happy smile, I bowed slightly and walked off the stage.I greeted each person I met when going back to my seat, with relief and gratefulness spreading warmly through my body.7 / 8(共104張PPT)單元質(zhì)量檢測(cè)(二) BRIDGING CULTURES(滿(mǎn)分150分,時(shí)間120分鐘)第一部分 聽(tīng)力(共兩節(jié),滿(mǎn)分30分)第一節(jié)(共5小題;每小題1.5分,滿(mǎn)分7.5分)聽(tīng)下面5段對(duì)話(huà)。每段對(duì)話(huà)后有一個(gè)小題,從題中所給的A、B、C三個(gè)選項(xiàng)中選出最佳選項(xiàng),并標(biāo)在試卷的相應(yīng)位置。聽(tīng)完每段對(duì)話(huà)后,你都有10秒鐘的時(shí)間來(lái)回答有關(guān)小題和閱讀下一小題。每段對(duì)話(huà)僅讀一遍。1.

The White House is open tothe public on weekdays from 10 a.m. until noon.The building was torched by British troops in 1814, during the War of1812, and the structural damage caused by the fire was repaired, but thesandstone walls outside were still black from the fire. The walls were thenpainted white, giving birth to the name the building now goes by. An actof Congress made it the official name in 1920. Every President has left hismark upon the White House, with Thomas Jefferson adding grass to theeast and west wings, Andrew Jackson installing running water, andHarry Truman adding a porch. Bill Clinton’s addition to the White Housewas an indoor track.第二部分 閱讀(共兩節(jié),滿(mǎn)分50分)第一節(jié)(共15小題;每小題2.5分,滿(mǎn)分37.5分)閱讀下列短文,從每題所給的A、B、C、D四個(gè)選項(xiàng)中選出最佳選項(xiàng)。AWhat’s Included?LIVE INSTRUCTION 6 three-hour sessions with a Kaplan expert teaching the best test-taking strategies.PRACTICE TESTS 4 exams with score analysis to identify areas for improvement andtarget your prep.THE SAT CHANNEL Tune in for live interactive sessions on the topics you choose andinstant one-on-one help with all your questions.ON-DEMAND LESSONS Additional instructional videos on every SAT topic.Watch the onesyou need, when you need them.COURSE MATERIALS 2 of Kaplan’s acclaimed prep books to supplement your course andpractice questions for your laptop or mobile device.PRIVATE COACHING Only with PLUS — get 3 hours of Live Online personal coaching forextra support on the topics you need to focus on the most.語(yǔ)篇解讀:本文是一篇應(yīng)用文。文章主要介紹了美國(guó)教育機(jī)構(gòu)Kaplan所提供的一門(mén)應(yīng)對(duì)SAT考試的課程。本文是一篇應(yīng)用文。文章主要介紹了美國(guó)教育機(jī)構(gòu)Kaplan所提供的一門(mén)應(yīng)對(duì)SAT考試的課程。21.

It wasn’t until the summer of 2015, before freshman year at highschool.All my friends and my parents encouraged me to join the highschool football team.I owed much to them, especially coach Lane whotaught me how to play football.He took the time — and had thepatience — to actually teach me what to do, how to do it and how tounderstand the concepts of play. In junior year, I started my first game for the high school team.I hada very good season and in January 2018, I signed the University of NorthCarolina.The older we get, the more of an understanding we have aboutthe world and other people.So the first time my teammates in college heardme talk and heard that I stuttered, they did not say a thing.That was a bigdeal to me because I was so used to people making comments.Myteammates actually tell me to slow down because talking faster causes meto stutter more.It’s really helped me develop confidence. Whenever I go back home to Georgia, I volunteer with children atmy church, including those who have learning disabilities.I like to dothat to inspire them with confidence.I had confidence issues when I was akid because of my stutter, so I just don’t want them to have to gothrough what I did.In the future, I would like to start a foundation to giveback to people who stutter and create a program where kids all across theworld who have a stutter can have a safe space.語(yǔ)篇解讀:本文是一篇記敘文。作者小時(shí)候結(jié)巴,性格內(nèi)向。上高中后,在朋友和父母的鼓勵(lì)下加入校足球隊(duì)。上大學(xué)后,他變得自信,并學(xué)會(huì)了幫助他人。本文是一篇記敘文。作者小時(shí)候結(jié)巴,性格內(nèi)向。上高中后,在朋友和父母的鼓勵(lì)下加入校足球隊(duì)。上大學(xué)后,他變得自信,并學(xué)會(huì)了幫助他人。24.

How could they not be given how carefully they’re educated? Theyare coached and drilled and dieted from the earliest years of life.Whateveryou demand of them, they’ll do.Whatever bar you place in front ofthem, they’ll clear. A friend who teaches at a top university once asked her class tomemorize thirty lines of the eighteenth-century poet Alexander Pope.Everysingle kid got every single line correct, down to the punctuationmarks.“Seeing them write out the exercise in class,” she said, “wasa thing of wonder.” The problem is that students have been taught that that is all thateducation is: doing your homework, getting the answers, acing thetest.Nothing in their training has equipped them with the sense thatsomething larger is at risk.They’ve learned to “be a student”, not touse their minds.I was talking with someone who teaches at a branchcampus of a state university.His students don’t think for themselves, hecomplained.Well, I said, Yale students think for themselves, but onlybecause they know we want them to. I taught many wonderful young people during my years in the IvyLeague — bright, thoughtful, creative kids whom it was a pleasure totalk with and learn from.But most of them seemed content to the colourwithin the lines that their education had marked out for them.Very fewwere passionate about ideas.Very few saw college as part of a largerproject of intellectual discovery and development, one that they directedby themselves and for themselves.語(yǔ)篇解讀:本文是一篇議論文。作者認(rèn)為,美國(guó)知名高校的那些大學(xué)生們雖然才華出眾、學(xué)業(yè)優(yōu)異,但是他們?nèi)狈?chuàng)造力,也忘記了受教育的根本目的。本文是一篇議論文。作者認(rèn)為,美國(guó)知名高校的那些大學(xué)生們雖然才華出眾、學(xué)業(yè)優(yōu)異,但是他們?nèi)狈?chuàng)造力,也忘記了受教育的根本目的。28.

The era of global warming has ended, hedeclared dramatically, and the era of “global boiling” has arrived.You can see why he said it. July was the hottest month on recordglobally. High temperatures and intense wildfires have raged across theNorthern Hemisphere. Marine heatwaves are damaging the world’s third-largest coral reef, off Florida. And as greenhouse emissions keeprising, it means many even hotter summers await us.But critics have made negative comments on the phrase. Obviously,“global boiling” is clearly an exaggeration (夸張), but “globalwarming” is now far too weak. Many climate scientists have pushed forthe term “global heating” to be used in preference. Similarly, phrasessuch as “climate crisis” haven’t gained enough attention. That’sbecause many of us still feel we haven’t seen this crisis with our owneyes.But that is changing. In the past few years, extreme weather andrelated events have struck many countries. Australia’s Black Summerbrought bushfires that burned an area the size of the United Kingdom.Germany suffered serious flooding in 2021. The 2022 flood in Pakistanflooded large parts of the country. China has seen both drought andfloods. Savage multi-year droughts have hit the Horn of Africa. India hasbanned rice exports due to damage from heavy rain.Opponents of climate action often complain about what they see as theoveruse of “crisis talk”. If everything is a crisis, nothing is a crisis.When Guterres uses highly charged phrases, he’s not inviting us toimagine a Hollywood-style disaster. What he’s hoping is to make peoplelisten — and act — now we can see what climate change looks like.Are there better phrases to capture this? Possibly. Take the challengeyourself: Can you think up a brief, accurate phrase to cover intensifyinglocal and regional-scale droughts, fires, typhoons and floods? You cansee how hard it is.語(yǔ)篇解讀:本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。面對(duì)日益嚴(yán)峻的全球變暖形勢(shì),聯(lián)合國(guó)秘書(shū)長(zhǎng)安東尼奧·古特雷斯最近用“全球沸騰”這一引人注目的新名詞發(fā)出警告,以此呼吁各國(guó)立即采取積極措施避免更多災(zāi)難的發(fā)生。本文是一篇說(shuō)明文。面對(duì)日益嚴(yán)峻的全球變暖形勢(shì),聯(lián)合國(guó)秘書(shū)長(zhǎng)安東尼奧·古特雷斯最近用“全球沸騰”這一引人注目的新名詞發(fā)出警告,以此呼吁各國(guó)立即采取積極措施避免更多災(zāi)難的發(fā)生。32. What made António Guterres use the phrase “global boiling”?A. The new scientific finding.B. The comments from critics.C. The present serious situation.D. The future trend in climate change.解析: 推理判斷題。根據(jù)第一、二段可知,聯(lián)合國(guó)秘書(shū)長(zhǎng)安東尼奧·古特雷斯之所以要使用“全球沸騰”這一新名詞,是基于目前日益嚴(yán)峻的氣候變化形勢(shì)。33. Why do the phrases like “climate crisis” fail to attract ourattention?A. These phrases don’t reflect the truth.B. Many disasters haven’t been reported.C. Fewer crises have happened these years.D. Climate disasters haven’t happened to us.解析: 細(xì)節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段可知,作者認(rèn)為,“氣候變暖”“氣候變熱”以及“氣候危機(jī)”這些詞之所以都沒(méi)有引起人們足夠的關(guān)注,是因?yàn)椋ㄟ^(guò)去)我們很多人沒(méi)有親眼看見(jiàn)這些(跟氣候變化有關(guān)的)危機(jī)和災(zāi)難。34. What does the author try to convey by saying “But that ischanging.” in Paragraph 4?A. But the situation is improving.B. But people have realized the danger.C. But more climate crises have happened.D. But people have taken effective measures.解析: 詞句猜測(cè)題。根據(jù)第四段可知,But that is changing.這句話(huà)承上啟下,作者接著列舉了近年來(lái)全球范圍頻發(fā)的由氣候變化引起的自然災(zāi)害,說(shuō)明過(guò)去我們沒(méi)有親眼看見(jiàn)的災(zāi)難現(xiàn)在不但降臨了,而且越來(lái)越多。35. What does the author think of António Guterres’s saying “globalboiling”?A. It’s beyond the truth.B. It’s acceptable indeed.C. He tries to frighten people.D. He aims to please the public.解析: 推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后兩段可知,作者認(rèn)為:安東尼奧·古特雷斯使用“全球沸騰”這一說(shuō)法,是為了吸引人們聆聽(tīng)他的呼吁并開(kāi)始采取行動(dòng);另外,我們也很難再想出一個(gè)更好的詞來(lái)描述當(dāng)前的嚴(yán)峻形勢(shì)。由此可推出,作者非常認(rèn)可安東尼奧·古特雷斯的這一說(shuō)法。第二節(jié)(共5小題;每小題2.5分,滿(mǎn)分12.5分)閱讀下面短文,從短文后的選項(xiàng)中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項(xiàng)。選項(xiàng)中有兩項(xiàng)為多余選項(xiàng)。 If you’re one of the thousands of students that have decided tostudy in the US, you may be aware that unfortunately you cannotescape a piece of personal statement, even as an internationalstudent. Now let’s look at how to write a good personal statement. Don’t start with something common, such as “I usually visitthe museums because I like history.” 36 Once you have a solid opening paragraph, think about how youcan use your notes to construct several more paragraphs that will makeup the body of your essay. 37 However, at this stage it’s better to have too muchwritten down that you can then trim (刪減), than not haveenough. The conclusion must round off your essay in a way that leaves alasting good impression upon the admissions tutor. 38 Explain how this will benefit you on the course and make you avaluable asset (資產(chǎn)) to the university. 39 You can also talkabout any other plans you have for the future that your universityeducation will enable you to achieve. When your first draft is complete, don’t rely on a spellcheckerto correct spelling mistakes. 40 Make sure you go through at leastseveral rounds of this, and you’ll achieve a polished essay that willgive you the best chance of success with your US college applications.A. Try to be brief and to the point.B. Not everyone knows how to write a personal statement.C. You are only given a maximum of 650 words for the statement.D. You’d better include a brief sentence or two about your careerpath.E. Ask tutors, family and friends to look at it and give you theirfeedback.F.

One afternoon, the schoolmaster called me into his office.He saidwith a smile,“Nancie, could you write a poem for the festival and readit during the coming event?” “Sure!” Excitedly, I had loved poetrysince my fifth grade.I was fascinated by poems for it is an amazing thingto convey feelings through them.When my first poem was published, Iwas known to my friends and teachers as the class poet. I left the schoolmaster’s office that afternoon, feeling quitehappy.Then for weeks, I worked on my poem, carefully designing thecontent, structure and sound.I practiced reciting it aloud every day. When the evening for the event finally came, I was ready.Well, Iwas ready until I looked around and realised how many people there werein the school hall.How could I present my poem in front of more than 400people? I was just a seventh-grader! No one would take my workseriously.What was worse, I had never spoken in front of a huge crowdbefore.I sat in my chair, hoping I could disappear.Maybe they wouldforget I was supposed to read. “Hey, Nancie, I saw your name in the program.Good luck!”my little brother’s voice rose as he took his seat a few rows down with hisclass.I nodded, struggling to keep calm.I knew my parents weresomewhere in the hall.Before long, the lights faded, the crowdquieted, and the schoolmaster took the stage to introduce the list of theshows.Mine was at the end of the list.So I had to sit through an hour ofabsolute anxiety. It wasn’t until the students from the fourth grade were singing thatmy teacher brought me downstairs next to the stage.My mind wasblank.Then suddenly, I was on stage with the bright white lights blindingmy view of the audience.When I walked to the microphone in the center ofthe stage, I somehow tripped over something.And I stupidly felldown.All of the kids burst into laughter.注意:1.續(xù)寫(xiě)詞數(shù)應(yīng)為150左右;2. 請(qǐng)按如下格式作答。 I was about to run away when my teacher came up to me. When I finished my reading, the hall was silent at first. 參考范文: I was about to run away when my teacher came up to me.He joked Ifell due to my eagerness to bow to the audience.His humour helpedremove the embarrassment.Then he motivated the audience to give meencouragement.Feeling less nervous, I took the microphone and clearedmy throat before reading the title.Surprisingly, my voice sounded clearand loud.The hall silenced.I continued reading, with words coming outin the right order and lines flowing together appropriately. When I finished my reading, the hall was silent at first.I swallowedhard.Maybe no one loved my poem.Then out of the silence there wasclapping and cheering.I dared to look for my parents in the sea of faces,and found my mother wiping away tears and my father smiling.With alight-headed feeling and a happy smile, I bowed slightly and walked offthe stage.I greeted each person I met when going back to my seat, withrelief and gratefulness spreading warmly through my body.謝謝觀看! 展開(kāi)更多...... 收起↑ 資源列表 單元質(zhì)量檢測(cè)(二) BRIDGING CULTURES.docx 單元質(zhì)量檢測(cè)(二) BRIDGING CULTURES.pptx 縮略圖、資源來(lái)源于二一教育資源庫(kù)
