Dreams，according to Carl Jung，reveal a certain amount of reality hidden during waking consciousness．In Jungian philosophy，the conflict and chaos experienced in dreams finally bring order to our lives．While Jung's mystical theories were debatable，he was not mistaken about the importance of dreaming．A growing number of reports show that a continuous lack of dreaming is damaging our waking hours in many ways．
This trend is causing damage to our immune and metabolic(新陳代謝的)systems，let alone the electronic products that keep us up late at night are ruining our sleep patterns，which has long-term consequences for our memory system．One study showed that not allowing mice to have adequate amounts of REM(Rapid Eye Movement)sleep，the stage in which we dream，the mice couldn't strengthen memories．
You might think this is just a sleep problem，but dreaming is inseparable from our nighttime rest．We sleep in cycles(周期)，each lasting about 90 minutes; in a sleep cycle，we go through non-REM sleep before hitting REM．As the night progresses，REM sleep periods increase in length while deep sleep (one of the stages of non-REM sleep)decreases．The longer we sleep，the more time we spend in REM，which is why we are often dreaming when waking up in the morning．If we sleep less than seven hours，however，it becomes harder to achieve this level of REM．
The combination of sleeping and dreaming acts as an emotional stabilizer．We recover from emotional hurt faster when we sleep and dream properly．However，we're not getting enough sleep to cycle through the stages to take advantage of this natural circadian anti-depressant(抗抑郁藥)—dreams．Instead，we get depressed and turn to alcohol or medicines to get to sleep，which only makes things worse because even one drink leads to late REM while anti-depressants promote deep sleep at the expense of REM．
We're paying for this lack of dreaming in many ways．For example，a 2021 study stated that compared with quiet rest and non-REM sleep，REM promoted the formation of associative networks and the integration(整合)of unassociated information．Volunteers that experienced more REM sleep were better equipped for solving problems requiring creative solutions．
Rowan Hooper，the managing editor at New Scientist，writes that dreams that include an “emotional core” appear to be a main function of REM sleep and that we should look at sleep patterns as seriously as we look at diet and exercise habits．
24.What's Carl Jung's view about dreams
A. They cause chaos． B. They damage immunity．
C. They reveal secrets． D. They mirror reality．
25.Why is the sleep process explained in paragraph 3
A. To show a dream mainly occurs during REM sleep． B. To prove the minimum sleep time should be seven hours．
C. To prove dream problems and sleep problems are attached． D. To show people often dream when waking up in the morning．
26.What conclusion can be inferred from paragraph 5
A. Dreaming promotes creativity． B. Dreaming helps fight depression．
C. The brain still receives new information during REM sleep． D. The brain is paying the price for having more non-REM sleep．
27.What's the main idea of the passage
A. The importance of sleep lies in dreams． B. The absence of dreams is terrible for us．
C. Dreaming patterns are more important than we realize． D. Dreaming has mystical power of strengthening memories．

Every year thousands of people come to the city of Pamplona，in north-eastern Spain，for the opportunity to run for their lives as six fighting bulls are released to charge through the town．There are injuries and deaths every year，but the event is of interest to many people．A paper just published in Science describes the insight the event offers into the psychology of panicked crowds．
That is a useful topic to explore．Architects，civil engineers and urban planners must try to work out how people will behave in the event of a disaster like a fire，a flood or a terrorist attack so they can design their creations to avoid potentially deadly collisions(碰撞)．Unfortunately，solid information is hard to come by．Daniel Parisi，the paper's lead author，realized that the Pamplona bull running offered the perfect natural experiment．
Dr Parisi and his team went to two different rooftop locations in Pamplona in July 2019，and filmed the runners as the animals were released．Later in the lab，they calculated the speed of the runners，the density(密度)of the crowd，the probability of a runner tripping and falling and the relationship between runner-group density and speed．
Perhaps unsurprisingly，the researchers found that runners picked up speed when the bulls drew near．Less expected was the finding that the speed of individual runners increased with the density of the crowd going up，which was contrary to a long-held assumption in architectural and urban-design circles that people will slow their pace as group density goes up，in order to lower the risk of a collision，which could lead to a fall and，perhaps，injury or death．
Yet it seems that，in the heat of the moment，people pay little attention to the danger of colliding with each other，and do not slow down．The responsibility therefore falls upon urban designers to work out how best to plan the construction of future tunnels，bridges and other passages that restrict flow．The only option may well be to make them broad enough．
31.What did Dr Parisi and his team do in Pamplona
A. They recorded runners in a bull-run event． B. They proved their theory．
C. They watched a thrilling bullfight． D. They designed a psychological experiment．
32.What was the unexpected finding in the study
A. People slowed down in crowded areas． B. Collisions posed a danger to bull-runners．
C. Bulls' coming near made people run faster． D. People tended to speed up in high-density crowds．
33.What is implied in the last paragraph
A. People lose their mind in disasters． B. Future tunnels and bridges may be wider．
C. Panicked crowds are aware of the danger of collisions． D. Restricting flow helps to prevent people colliding with each other．
34.Which is the best title for the text
A. How the Crowds React to Panic B. Bull Running Catches on in Spain
C. Dr Parisi's Finding Shocks the World D. What Architects Can Learn from Bull Running
第二節(jié) （共5小題；每小題2.5分，滿分12.5分）
閱讀下面短文，從短文后的選項中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。
I’ve been living in Spain for decades and I securely guarantee that I have a talent in figuring out the cool hidden local spots. As a foreigner, I couldn’t care less about doing the touristy things or enjoying fancy cuisine. ____ 35 ____ So I always attempt to find something that’s appealing and fun yet represents the local culture, and that offers an interaction with the locals.
My reputation for doing this has grown. ____ 36 ____ Since I am somewhat fluent in Spanish, I could charge people for this and become somewhat of an official tour guide. I choose not to though, because to me, the most important thing is making sure the tourist, who already spent a lot of time and money getting to where I am, has the fun and cultural experience they could possibly have. ____ 37 ____ In that case, tourists can explore the local culture further at the lowest cost. They could otherwise spend a significant sum of money on a guided tour that keeps them comfortable but separated from the culture. I choose to give them an experience that’s deeper and opens their mind, all for free.
____ 38 ____ When someone is visiting your area, don’t just take them to the touristy spots. Show them the places that mean something to you. Show them your heart through the places that you show them and the experience you give them. There’s something good in almost every town out there. If you don’t have any spots in your area that you like, learn to find the good in the place you live. If you find the good in where you live, you will also find the good in yourself. It’s a time that both you and the tourist will probably never obtain again. ____ 39 ___
A. Everyone can do the same.
B. I could hardly have imagined it would happen.
C. It could also help me create a lifelong connection with them.
D. What’s most crucial is experiencing the genuine country and culture.
E. I know better than tourists themselves what they are eager to experience.
F. Don’t rush the experience, thoroughly enjoy every moment with that person.
G. I’m being asked frequently to offer people tours, both to friends and strangers.

They 45 together to help each other in rebuilding their lives after the hurricane.
Family took 46 over everything in this community. If someone is in need, the extended family will provide any 47 needed. Children are taught from an early age that family is worth more than any material possession they will 48 .They pass that value to the next 49 ,and the cycle continues in 50 solid family values.
On my third day in this community, two elders said they had felt a strong 51 with my spirit, and wanted to adopt me into their tribe. It was beyond my 52 as to how an outsider could be 53 after just three days! One of the elders explained that no one was a stranger there.
Leaving this community was challenging indeed. Not only did my outlook change, my understanding of how life can be defined took a 54 for the better.

Sometimes, we all need that one person to believe in us if we ever want to change our lives. Thankfully, one homeless man’s note was about to get found by someone willing to help turn his life around.
Anthony Johnson is a 36-year-old man who had been living without a home in England. Sadly, his time on the streets meant that Anthony struggled to find work. He soon decided to leave a note at a bus shelter asking anyone to give him a chance so he could make his life worth living.
It turned out that Anthony had once got caught up with the wrong crowd. Although he has turned his life around, Anthony had no way of making money and couldn’t afford a home. To top it off, Anthony had also been battling his mental health in the last few years and just needed a chance to make it for himself.
It wasn’t until 16-year-old Charlotte Howard saw the note that everything started to change. Charlotte wanted to help Anthony in his quest to turn things around and decided to start a GoFundMe page. Here, the teen hoped to raise almost $400—$130 to buy a trailer and the rest to cover the cost of the repairs.
It didn’t take long for Charlotte’s post to take the nation by storm, and the page soon had more donations than the teen ever imagined. In just six days, Charlotte had blown her initial goal out of the water as the page had received more than $2,300 in donations. It was way more than either of the pair ever expected.
注意：1.續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應為150左右；

聽下面一段獨白，完成以下小題。
【聽力原文】W: Well, everyone knows that good sleep is important for our health. Not everyone knows how important it is to sleep in darkness.
A new report says sleeping with the light on could be bad for our health. Researchers said around 40% of people sleep with some sort of artificial light. They said even light from a television or an alarm clock could affect our health. Sleeping without any light is more difficult for people who live in cities where there is a lot of outdoor light at night. The researchers are from the northwestern university Feinberg school of medicine in Chicago, USA. The lead researcher, Dr Phyllis Z, is an expert in sleep medicine. Her team conducted a study of the blood sugar levels of twenty people after nights of sleep.
The people who slept with a light on had higher blood sugar levels the next morning compared to those who slept in total darkness. Doctor Z said this is because light stimulates brain activity, which raises blood sugar levels. She said there are three things we can do to reduce the risk of illness. Turn off the lights, use a light blocking curtain and wear an eye mask.
14.What is the talk mainly about
A. The benefits of good sleep. B. The ways of improving sleep. C. The influence of sleep environment.
【答案】C
15.How many subjects were involved in the study
A. 20. B. 40. C. 60.

When Life Gives You Mangos
by Kereen Getten
A moving new middle grade novel, When Life Gives You Mangos centers the perspective of a young girl named Clara who lives on an island in Jamaica, a favorite place for tourists who throw around words like “exotic” about Clara’s home. Since last summer’s hurricane, though, the tourists are thinning out, and the biggest talk is about a new girl who’s moving to the island, whom Clara can’t wait to meet. A moving story about family, friendship, and resilience, it will also spark important conversations about traveling to others’ homes.

Dreams，according to Carl Jung，reveal a certain amount of reality hidden during waking consciousness．In Jungian philosophy，the conflict and chaos experienced in dreams finally bring order to our lives．While Jung's mystical theories were debatable，he was not mistaken about the importance of dreaming．A growing number of reports show that a continuous lack of dreaming is damaging our waking hours in many ways．
This trend is causing damage to our immune and metabolic(新陳代謝的)systems，let alone the electronic products that keep us up late at night are ruining our sleep patterns，which has long-term consequences for our memory system．One study showed that not allowing mice to have adequate amounts of REM(Rapid Eye Movement)sleep，the stage in which we dream，the mice couldn't strengthen memories．
You might think this is just a sleep problem，but dreaming is inseparable from our nighttime rest．We sleep in cycles(周期)，each lasting about 90 minutes; in a sleep cycle，we go through non-REM sleep before hitting REM．As the night progresses，REM sleep periods increase in length while deep sleep (one of the stages of non-REM sleep)decreases．The longer we sleep，the more time we spend in REM，which is why we are often dreaming when waking up in the morning．If we sleep less than seven hours，however，it becomes harder to achieve this level of REM．
The combination of sleeping and dreaming acts as an emotional stabilizer．We recover from emotional hurt faster when we sleep and dream properly．However，we're not getting enough sleep to cycle through the stages to take advantage of this natural circadian anti-depressant(抗抑郁藥)—dreams．Instead，we get depressed and turn to alcohol or medicines to get to sleep，which only makes things worse because even one drink leads to late REM while anti-depressants promote deep sleep at the expense of REM．
We're paying for this lack of dreaming in many ways．For example，a 2021 study stated that compared with quiet rest and non-REM sleep，REM promoted the formation of associative networks and the integration(整合)of unassociated information．Volunteers that experienced more REM sleep were better equipped for solving problems requiring creative solutions．
Rowan Hooper，the managing editor at New Scientist，writes that dreams that include an “emotional core” appear to be a main function of REM sleep and that we should look at sleep patterns as seriously as we look at diet and exercise habits．
【語篇解讀】本文是一篇說明文。文章介紹了做夢和睡眠之間的關系，以及缺乏做夢給我們帶來的損害。
24.What's Carl Jung's view about dreams
A. They cause chaos． B. They damage immunity．
C. They reveal secrets． D. They mirror reality．
【答案】D
【解析】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第一段中的“Dreams，according to... during waking consciousness．”可知，Carl Jung認為夢揭示了在清醒意識中一些被隱藏的現(xiàn)實，即夢會反映現(xiàn)實。故選D。
25.Why is the sleep process explained in paragraph 3
A. To show a dream mainly occurs during REM sleep． B. To prove the minimum sleep time should be seven hours．
C. To prove dream problems and sleep problems are attached． D. To show people often dream when waking up in the morning．
【答案】C
【解析】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第三段第一句內(nèi)容可知，你可能認為這只是睡眠問題，但做夢與夜間休息是分不開的。再結合第三段最后兩句“The longer we ... level of REM．”可知，我們睡得越久，在快速眼動階段(做夢)花費的時間就越多，這就是我們早上醒來時經(jīng)常在做夢的原因。然而，如果我們的睡眠時間少于7小時，就很難達到這種程度的快速眼動。由此可推知，我們是否做夢，與睡眠時長及睡眠過程中的快速眼動是有直接關系的，所以第三段對睡眠過程進行解釋，是為了證明做夢問題和睡眠問題是有關聯(lián)的。故選C。
26.What conclusion can be inferred from paragraph 5
A. Dreaming promotes creativity． B. Dreaming helps fight depression．
C. The brain still receives new information during REM sleep． D. The brain is paying the price for having more non-REM sleep．
【答案】A
【解析】推理判斷題。根據(jù)第五段最后一句“Volunteers that experienced ... requiring creative solutions．”可知，經(jīng)歷了更多快速眼動睡眠的志愿者更善于解決需要創(chuàng)造性解決方案的問題。由此可推知，做夢能讓人更具有創(chuàng)造力。故選A。
27.What's the main idea of the passage
A. The importance of sleep lies in dreams． B. The absence of dreams is terrible for us．
C. Dreaming patterns are more important than we realize． D. Dreaming has mystical power of strengthening memories．
【答案】B
【解析】主旨大意題。通讀全文可知，文章第一段闡述了做夢的重要性，缺乏做夢會給我們帶來損害；第二段介紹了缺乏做夢會對我們的免疫系統(tǒng)、新陳代謝系統(tǒng)和記憶造成損害；第四段說睡眠和做夢結合起來可以起到穩(wěn)定情緒的作用；第五段說我們正以許多方式為缺乏做夢付出代價。由此可推知，本文主要介紹了缺乏做夢對于我們來說是可怕的。故選B。

Every year thousands of people come to the city of Pamplona，in north-eastern Spain，for the opportunity to run for their lives as six fighting bulls are released to charge through the town．There are injuries and deaths every year，but the event is of interest to many people．A paper just published in Science describes the insight the event offers into the psychology of panicked crowds．
That is a useful topic to explore．Architects，civil engineers and urban planners must try to work out how people will behave in the event of a disaster like a fire，a flood or a terrorist attack so they can design their creations to avoid potentially deadly collisions(碰撞)．Unfortunately，solid information is hard to come by．Daniel Parisi，the paper's lead author，realized that the Pamplona bull running offered the perfect natural experiment．
Dr Parisi and his team went to two different rooftop locations in Pamplona in July 2019，and filmed the runners as the animals were released．Later in the lab，they calculated the speed of the runners，the density(密度)of the crowd，the probability of a runner tripping and falling and the relationship between runner-group density and speed．
Perhaps unsurprisingly，the researchers found that runners picked up speed when the bulls drew near．Less expected was the finding that the speed of individual runners increased with the density of the crowd going up，which was contrary to a long-held assumption in architectural and urban-design circles that people will slow their pace as group density goes up，in order to lower the risk of a collision，which could lead to a fall and，perhaps，injury or death．
Yet it seems that，in the heat of the moment，people pay little attention to the danger of colliding with each other，and do not slow down．The responsibility therefore falls upon urban designers to work out how best to plan the construction of future tunnels，bridges and other passages that restrict flow．The only option may well be to make them broad enough．
【語篇解讀】本文是一篇說明文。Daniel Parisi將西班牙潘普洛納的奔牛節(jié)活動當作自然實驗場景，觀察人們在危險中是如何表現(xiàn)的，以啟示建筑設計師。
31.What did Dr Parisi and his team do in Pamplona
A. They recorded runners in a bull-run event． B. They proved their theory．
C. They watched a thrilling bullfight． D. They designed a psychological experiment．
【答案】A
【解析】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第三段中的“Dr Parisi and his team... the animals were released．”可知，2019年7月，Parisi博士和他的團隊前往潘普洛納的兩個不同的屋頂?shù)攸c，拍攝了動物被放出時的奔跑者。由此可知，Parisi博士和他的團隊記錄了奔?；顒又械谋寂苷?，故選A項。
32.What was the unexpected finding in the study
A. People slowed down in crowded areas． B. Collisions posed a danger to bull-runners．
C. Bulls' coming near made people run faster． D. People tended to speed up in high-density crowds．
【答案】D
【解析】細節(jié)理解題。根據(jù)第四段中的“Less expected was the finding that the speed of individual runners increased with the density of the crowd going up”可知，令人想不到的是，研究發(fā)現(xiàn)，跑步者的速度隨著人群密度的增加而增加。由此可知，研究中讓人意外的發(fā)現(xiàn)是在高密度人群中，人們往往會加速，故選D項。
33.What is implied in the last paragraph
A. People lose their mind in disasters． B. Future tunnels and bridges may be wider．
C. Panicked crowds are aware of the danger of collisions． D. Restricting flow helps to prevent people colliding with each other．
【答案】B
【解析】推理判斷題。根據(jù)最后一段中的“The responsibility therefore ... make them broad enough．”可知，城市設計師的責任在于研究如何最好地規(guī)劃未來隧道、橋梁和其他限制流量的通道的建設，唯一的選擇可能是使它們變得足夠寬。由此可推知，未來的隧道和橋梁很可能會更寬，故選B項。
34.Which is the best title for the text
A. How the Crowds React to Panic B. Bull Running Catches on in Spain
C. Dr Parisi's Finding Shocks the World D. What Architects Can Learn from Bull Running
【答案】D
【解析】標題歸納題。瀏覽全文，尤其是文章第一段和最后一段的內(nèi)容可知，本文通過奔牛節(jié)活動來引出話題，并將此作為觀察人們在危險中如何表現(xiàn)的自然實驗場景，以便在城市建筑設計師規(guī)劃未來隧道、橋梁和其他限制流量的通道時給出啟示。故本文的最佳標題是D項。

閱讀下面短文，從短文后的選項中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。
I’ve been living in Spain for decades and I securely guarantee that I have a talent in figuring out the cool hidden local spots. As a foreigner, I couldn’t care less about doing the touristy things or enjoying fancy cuisine. ____ 35 ____ So I always attempt to find something that’s appealing and fun yet represents the local culture, and that offers an interaction with the locals.
My reputation for doing this has grown. ____ 36 ____ Since I am somewhat fluent in Spanish, I could charge people for this and become somewhat of an official tour guide. I choose not to though, because to me, the most important thing is making sure the tourist, who already spent a lot of time and money getting to where I am, has the fun and cultural experience they could possibly have. ____ 37 ____ In that case, tourists can explore the local culture further at the lowest cost. They could otherwise spend a significant sum of money on a guided tour that keeps them comfortable but separated from the culture. I choose to give them an experience that’s deeper and opens their mind, all for free.
____ 38 ____ When someone is visiting your area, don’t just take them to the touristy spots. Show them the places that mean something to you. Show them your heart through the places that you show them and the experience you give them. There’s something good in almost every town out there. If you don’t have any spots in your area that you like, learn to find the good in the place you live. If you find the good in where you live, you will also find the good in yourself. It’s a time that both you and the tourist will probably never obtain again. ____ 39 ___

They 45 together to help each other in rebuilding their lives after the hurricane.
Family took 46 over everything in this community. If someone is in need, the extended family will provide any 47 needed. Children are taught from an early age that family is worth more than any material possession they will 48 .They pass that value to the next 49 ,and the cycle continues in 50 solid family values.
On my third day in this community, two elders said they had felt a strong 51 with my spirit, and wanted to adopt me into their tribe. It was beyond my 52 as to how an outsider could be 53 after just three days! One of the elders explained that no one was a stranger there.
Leaving this community was challenging indeed. Not only did my outlook change, my understanding of how life can be defined took a 54 for the better.

【解析】1．考查謂語動詞的時態(tài)和語態(tài)。根據(jù)時間狀語“around 3, 500 years ago”可知是過去時態(tài)，主語“The first zoo”和謂語動詞establish 是被動關系，故填 was established。
2．考查謂語動詞的時態(tài)。句中“Five hundred years later”是過去的時間狀語，謂語需要用過去式，故填 built。
3．考查謂語動詞的時態(tài)。本句話的語境是過去，謂語動詞用過去式，故填 consisted。
4．考查謂語動詞的時態(tài)和語態(tài)。主語“the zoos”和謂語動詞replace 為被動關系，并且是過去時態(tài)，所以用were replaced。
5．考查謂語動詞的時態(tài)和語態(tài)。“animals there were studied and ________”為并列關系，故填(were) kept。
6．考查謂語動詞的時態(tài)?！癆s early as the 1940s”是過去的時間狀語，謂語要用過去式，故填 understood。
7．考查謂語動詞的時態(tài)。時間狀語為“Since then”，謂語常用現(xiàn)在完成時，此處也可用現(xiàn)在完成進行時表示動作一直持續(xù)進行。故填have tried/have been trying。
8．考查非謂語動詞。rely on sb. to do sth. 依靠某人做某事，故填to save。
9．考查謂語動詞的時態(tài)。主語animals和謂語動詞watch 是被動關系，且此處與and前面的are fed. . . 為并列關系，故填(are) watched。
10．考查謂語動詞的時態(tài)。由時間狀語now可知，此處應該使用現(xiàn)在進行時。故填 are playing。

【答案】[參考范文]
Dear Chris，
I'm writing to share with you an art class I had in a park last Friday.You cannot imagine how meaningful and interesting it was!
We were tasked to draw or paint something that impressed us most.Inspired by the fantastic scenery，I decided to create a watercolor painting of the small bridge over the park's pond，surrounded by blooming flowers.
The entire experience was incredibly refreshing.Being surrounded by nature not only sparked my creativity but also offered a much-needed break from the usual hustle and bustle of school life.I felt a deep sense of peace as I painted.
In a word，it was not just an art class; it was a moment of connection with nature that I truly cherished.
How have your classes been lately I would love to hear about them.
Take care and write back soon!
Yours，
Li Hua
第二節(jié)（滿分25分）
57.閱讀下面材料，根據(jù)其內(nèi)容和所給段落開頭語續(xù)寫兩段，使之構成一篇完整的短文。
Sometimes, we all need that one person to believe in us if we ever want to change our lives. Thankfully, one homeless man’s note was about to get found by someone willing to help turn his life around.
Anthony Johnson is a 36-year-old man who had been living without a home in England. Sadly, his time on the streets meant that Anthony struggled to find work. He soon decided to leave a note at a bus shelter asking anyone to give him a chance so he could make his life worth living.
It turned out that Anthony had once got caught up with the wrong crowd. Although he has turned his life around, Anthony had no way of making money and couldn’t afford a home. To top it off, Anthony had also been battling his mental health in the last few years and just needed a chance to make it for himself.
It wasn’t until 16-year-old Charlotte Howard saw the note that everything started to change. Charlotte wanted to help Anthony in his quest to turn things around and decided to start a GoFundMe page. Here, the teen hoped to raise almost $400—$130 to buy a trailer and the rest to cover the cost of the repairs.
It didn’t take long for Charlotte’s post to take the nation by storm, and the page soon had more donations than the teen ever imagined. In just six days, Charlotte had blown her initial goal out of the water as the page had received more than $2,300 in donations. It was way more than either of the pair ever expected.
注意：1.續(xù)寫詞數(shù)應為150左右；
2.請按如下格式在答題卡的相應位置作答。

【答案】[參考范文]
Paragraph 1:
Unbelievably, the generosity didn’t end there. The money was only the beginning as Anthony soon found himself with a brand new job offer from Nelson Smith. Now, Anthony will be able to put his skills to good use as a landscape gardener. This is merely the beginning of a huge change for Anthony—all thanks to Charlotte’s generosity.
Paragraph 2:
Charlotte Howard came up with a new idea about how to use the rest of the money. Inspired by Anthony’s story, Charlotte Howard began to offer more help to more homeless people. With other people’s help he founded a tiny organization to offer training to homeless people and bought necessary equipment. Anthony is invited to give training lessons about gardening skills. He is greatly encouraged while he encourages others. The new job not only has improved his living conditions but also has lifted up his spirits, bringing out the best in him. Starting the page might have been a small thought by Charlotte, but it was about to change Anthony’s life forever. Sometimes, those small acts of kindness really can change the world.
【解析】[分析]
本文以人物為線索展開，講述了16歲的夏洛特為了幫助36歲的無家可歸的安東尼，建立了一個名為GoFund- Me的網(wǎng)站，為他捐款。沒想到此事在網(wǎng)絡上引起強烈反響，籌集了大量善款，并且安東尼的工作也有了起色。受安東尼故事的啟發(fā)，夏洛特用剩下的錢開始為更多無家可歸的人提供幫助。有時候小小的善舉真的可以改變世界。
[詳解]
1.段落續(xù)寫：
①由第一段首句內(nèi)容“令人難以置信的是，這種慷慨還沒有到此為止?！笨芍?，第一段可描寫安東尼的生活也發(fā)生了巨大變化。
②由第二段首句內(nèi)容“夏洛特·霍華德對如何使用剩下的錢有了一個新的想法。”可知，第二段可描寫夏洛特利用這筆多余的錢成立了一個組織，為更多無家可歸的人提供幫助。
2.續(xù)寫線索：
安東尼得到新工作——夏洛特用多余的錢成立組
織——安東尼受邀教授園藝——安東尼的人生徹底被改變
