The Lost Dog
One summer day, I went out my back door and found a small dog sitting in the grass. The dog stood up and wagged (摇) his tail when he saw me. I touched his short brown-and-white coat and checked him for a collar or ID tag (项圈或身份牌). He had neither. I lived in a small town. I knew all the dogs in the neighborhood, but I'd never seen him before. I told him to sit. To my surprise, he sat at once. "Stay," I said, as I made my way into the storeroom where we kept the dry dog food for our dogs. When I returned, he was sitting in the exact place where I had left him. "Wow! You sure are trained," I said. I set out some water and food, and the dog started eating.
I left him in the yard and went inside to read through the newspaper's "Lost and Found" column (专栏). Unluckily, nobody had reported a missing brown-and-white dog. An hour later, my brother came home and asked why there was a strange dog in the yard. "I don't know where he came from," I said. "But he is owned by someone. Maybe he's just lost and will find his way home." Later that afternoon, my brother and I went outside and found the dog walking by the back door. We played with him for a while and found that the dog knew tricks. He could sit, stay, roll over, and lie down according to instructions. He also loved jumping to catch a tennis ball in mid-air. When my parents came home, we showed them the dog and all his tricks. My parents were shocked by his skills as much as we were. None of us had ever seen a dog so well-trained before. The dog got along well with our dogs, and we gave him a comfortable place to sleep in the storeroom.
The next day, I checked the "Lost and Found" column again, also with no result. Then, I called the newspaper and ran a "Found" advertisement describing our new friend.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Three days later, we got a call from a woman who had seen our "Found" advertisement in the newspaper.
……
When the woman's truck got near our yard, the dog ran to greet her.

As a high school student loves literature, I thought I knew a lot about Hamlet. But my view changed when I (see) The Revenge of Prince Zidan—the Peking Opera version of Hamlet.

Then I saw the main (character) come on stage. The costumes and masks were (amaze). The music, exaggerated movements and mime helped get the meanings across to the audience. And the stage was also very simple. (use) such techniques, the opera transformed a small stage into the whole universe (magic). The performance was so wonderful that everyone clapped their hands.

The next year, I signed up for the 2 and gave it a try. With 3 running practice, I just wanted to finish.
On the day of the race, it was terribly hot. Only after 2 miles, I felt sweat 4 off me and my legs swelling (肿胀). I began to5 , "Why am I doing this? What was I thinking? I must be 6 ."

Effective Ways to Protect Our Planet
We only have one earth. However, humans haven't been very good protectors of the earth over the years. To leave a fine planet for our children and future generations, we all need to take steps to develop better living habits.
Buy less. Cheap goods in the sales may make your life better, but few of those are essential. And they almost always end up in the trash can or are forgotten in the back of a. closet. So next time you're hesitating about buying or accepting a non-essential item, think over whether it will truly improve your life.
Turn waste into treasure. Not only does it keep items out of trash cans, but it can also prevent you from buying new items, which require lots of resources to produce. Moreover, children love making things. So instead of heading towards the craft store, check out your recycling bin first and improve your children's imagination.
Did you know it takes over 700 gallons of water to grow enough cotton to make just one plain T-shirt? Instead of going to the mall to buy new clothes, you can consider looking first in a secondhand shop or trading clothes. Second-hand shopping also applies to many other categories of consumer goods such as furniture, cars and children's toys.
Walk, bike or car sharing.According to the Environmental Protection Agency (EPA), a typical passenger vehicle emits (排放) about 4.6 metric tons of carbon dioxide (CO2) per year. Thus, any amount of what you can cut back on will matter. For short trips, you can try walking or biking. If travelling on foot or by bike isn't practical, you can try carpooling with a friend, neighbour or coworker to the same destination.
A. Save water.
B. Choose second-hand stores.
C. If not, it's okay to just say, "No, thanks!"
D. And here are some ways to protect the environment.
E. Plastic bottles are a clear example of waste material.
F. In this way, you can get some exercise without going to the gym.
G. Creating something new with unwanted items is a good way to protect the environment.

Earthquakes are common natural disasters. No matter where you are, knowing how to protect yourself and your family during an earthquake is necessary.
Some experts believe that when you feel the ground is shaking, drop down, take cover under a desk and hold on. Most earthquake injuries are the result of being hit by something falling on you. You should stay indoors until the shaking stops. If you are outdoors, don't stay near buildings, trees or power lines. Many people think that in case of an earthquake, they should "get under something" like a doorway or desk, in order to avoid being hurt by falling objects. Rescue experts now say this is the wrong thing to do. For example, in the 1985 Mexico City earthquake, they found hundreds of children in schools, crushed by their desks. However, they could have survived by lying in the aisle (通道,走道) next to their desks.
So find a nice piece of furniture, a chair, a sofa, and lie down, or curl up next to it. A falling roof may compact (压实) the furniture, but will still leave a space for you to survive next to it. This also holds true if you are in a hotel room, especially at night. Get off the bed, and lie down next to it.
In San Francisco's 1989 earthquake, the upper freeway fell on the lower one. People who drove along were crushed in their cars. But they had time to get out and lie down next to their cars. Yes, their cars were crushed, but there was space from top to bottom next to the vehicles for people to survive and wait a rescue.
Doorways and stairways are very unsafe. Stay away from those.
What can we do to keep ourselves safe? Staying calm is the first and most important rule when facing accidents.
(1)、Which word can replace the underlined word "crushed" in Paragraph 2?A、hidden B、protected C、caught D、killed(2)、How can we probably get a narrow escape from an earthquake?A、Lie down under a table or desk. B、Shout out loudly and ask for help. C、Run out of the house and stay under a big tree. D、Lie down next to a strong piece of furniture or a car.(3)、What should you do first when accidents happen according to this passage?A、Keep calm. B、Drop down. C、Get under buildings. D、Stay near trees.(4)、What is the best title of the text?A、Right Earthquake Survival Tips B、The New Idea of the Rescue Experts C、Great Damages Caused by Earthquake D、A Common Natural Disaster-earthquake -

More and more teenagers are becoming unwilling to exercise worldwide. Australia, a nation that prides itself on its outdoor culture, is doing particularly poorly. It is currently ranked (排名) 140th out of 146 countries for teenage exercise levels. The data shows that 85%of girls are physically inactive compared to 78% of boys. In Australia, less than 1 in 10 teenagers aged 12 to 18 are meeting the recommended levels of physical activity.
The current guidelines and evidence show that teenagers should be doing at least 60 minutes of physical activity per day. This should include muscle and bone strengthening activities on at least three days per week, meanwhile limiting recreational screen time to a maximum of 2 hours per day.
Not being active can cause a range of health conditions leading to early adulthood and beyond. Adolescents may have decreased bone and cardio-metabolic (心脏代谢的) health which leaves them facing an increased risk of chronic disease (慢性病) in later life, including type 2 diabetes, heart disease, high cholesterol, and decreased fitness. If you're not moving enough you're also at an increased risk of being overweight or obese, with data already showing that 29.8% of teenagers (14-17) are classified as overweight or obese.
So how can we get teenagers to exercise more? Firstly, high schools should place more importance on lunchtime and allow 1-hour breaks that increase physical activity. We should also encourage teenagers to be active on their lunch break. Parents and guardians also have an important role to play and should aim to devote 1 hour a day to moving more. This does not need to be 1 full hour and can be broken down into two 30-minute parts. The most important factor is to identify your teenager's interests and needs surrounding their physical activity.
Don't be afraid to ask for help in finding a safe and fun exercise program. A qualified exercise physiologist or exercise scientist can help your child find a way to be more active that is suited to their needs, age of development, and interests.
(1)、How does the writer show teenagers in Australia lack enough exercise in Paragraph 1?A、By analyzing reasons. B、By listing data. C、By making comparison. D、By giving examples.(2)、What does the author mainly intend to say with facts in Paragraph 3?A、A lack of exercise does lasting harm to health. B、Outdoor activities help build positive characters. C、Most chronic diseases come from getting overweight. D、Teenagers tend to take in more calories than they actually need.(3)、What is especially important when it comes to encouraging teenagers to exercise more?A、Parents' full participation in exercising. B、Arranging a balanced diet for them. C、Taking their interests into consideration. D、Improvement in the school PE course.(4)、What may be the author's writing purpose?A、To recommend fun exercise programs. B、To encourage physical activity in teenagers. C、To show the way to build a good living habit. D、To explain the reason for teenagers' poor health. -
