to become more moral for themselves.”讲述了近一半参与者想为自己变得有道德。后文“And fewer

为朋友和普通人变得有道德。空处应承上启下，讲述参与者为其他原因而变得有道德。
38. F 前文“The more they believed that their moral change would have positive results for themselves,

Upon hearing that you are eager to experience the Mid-Autumn Festival in my city out of your
interest in traditional Chinese culture, I could not help conveying my sincere welcome to you. Now I’m
writing to introduce some customs of the festival to you.
The Mid-Autumn Festival falls on the 15th of the eight month of our Chinese lunar calendar. As one
of the traditional Chinese festivals, it has been enjoying great popularity in our country. Usually, no matter
how far away or how busy we are, we will try to come home for the celebration. The moon that night
looks the brightest in the whole lunar month. What we love most is the time we enjoy the full moon
together. With the beautiful moon up in the sky, we sit together and eat moon cakes and fruit, sharing our
stories. In additional to these traditional activities, we have a wider range of choices such as travelling and
visiting our relatives or friends. If you want to know about other Chinese traditional festivals, don’t
hesitate to write to me.
Waiting for your early reply.

I looked down to find a little girl with brown eyes looking up at me.Her angelic face beamed，though，
as I could see，there were some scars on her little arms. "Hi.I'm Ashley.You wanna play dolts with me？"
she asked.I looked over and saw Mom nodding to me with a smile.I bent toward Ashley and whispered，
"Sure.I'd love to." Her tiny hand reached up and took mine，and we walked toward the doll house.Our time

Hello, everyone. Today I'll talk about how to improve your pronunciation. Language researchers say
pronunciation and fluency are the biggest barriers followed by grammar in effective spoken English.
However, most people don't regard pronunciation as a very important part of communication skills.
They are more focused on vocabulary. One reason is that most people are not even aware of their
mispronunciations. So it's important to first find out the words you mispronounce. You should listen
to experts. By experts, I mean those who are less likely to make pronunciation mistakes. When
listening to them, pay attention to words that sound strange because you pronounce the same words
differently. When you come across such words, check a dictionary to confirm their exact pronunciations.
You can also search for difficult-to-pronounce words and names and make a list of them. The last
suggestion is to read aloud. Now you've got the correct pronunciations of the words, it's time to
practice reading them every day.

第二节 （满分 25分） Paragraph 2:
阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 I returned to the shelter with mum several times.
Growing up, I wanted to be just like my mom. She was kind and caring, and always made
people comfortable in her presence. For years she was a volunteer in our community. I love
going to the local nursing home to help with her when I was a child. However, once I became a
teenager, I was too caught up in my adolescent world to worry about helping others.
One particular summer day when I was 12, Mom came into my room and told me to get up
and meet her at the car. But I had planned to spend the day at the lake with friends. Why did she have
to ruin everything At last, I made my way outside with my mother. Angry and annoyed, I climbed
into the car and shoot the door loudly. I sat in silence, too upset to talk. “Tasha, do you know where
we are going ” Mom asked calmly. I remained silent. “Sweetheart, we’re going to the children’s
shelter. I have been there before and I think it would benefit you, ” she explained.
I feel a pain slowly form in my stomach. How was I supposed to help there
When we reached the shelter, I was rather surprised. As we approached the front door, wind
bells played a calming tune while trees and flowers welcomed us. Maybe this wasn’t going to be
so.
Mom rang the doorbell. We were led to the front room, where all of the children were
playing. Toys were spread out across the floor. I noticed a baby whose body was seriously
wounded. Most of the children had noticeable physical scars such as cuts, burns and scratches.
What a terrible life they must have had before they moved here! My heart sank. As I was looking
around, I felt a gentle pull on my shirt.
