4、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。
Time was literally flying faster than you could blink.It was already dark.Poor George still scratched every inch of his head for some spark of inspiration.Their teacher had asked every student to write a composition and would have 10 top pieces posted on the noticeboard.The title was An Unforgettable Weekend.A both interesting and boring topic.
Just as George was wrestling with his composition, there came a knock on the door.It was Eric,his father."George, since tomorrow is Saturday, we will go and see your grandparents!" he beamed."Williams and Jenny? I really miss them!" George jumped with joy, dumping his pen on the desk.After all, George hadn't been reunited with his grandparents since 2020.
Early next morning they began their long journey.George's grandparents lived in a remote countryside.As Eric was driving, George couldn't help recalling his past experience staying in his grandparents'.The memories of dusty tracks, some shabby houses and the smelly river still hurt painfully."Dad, was your hometown beautiful when you lived there?" George asked curiously."You bet it! Our life wasn't good, but the scenery was definitely like a picture," Eric responded with noticeable pride.But what George worried about was that instead of having an unforgettable day, he would be greeted with unforgettable gray.He had been deeply scared by the smog there.
With a soft brake, the car stopped, pulling George from the edge of a sweet daydream. "Here we are! Home, sweet home!" Eric said, bouncing out, happy as a kid.Out of the car, what George saw was really unforgettable.The old and small house had been replaced by a new and big one, solid and strong.Just as George was wondering what happened, the door opened and his grandparents strode out, wearing big smiles.Approaching George, Williams gave him a tight embrace.Jenny talked eagerly with Eric.Inside the house, they provided updates on each other.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
Paragraph 1:
Lunch over, Williams took George to pick strawberries in the field.
Paragraph 2:
George set out to write the composition.

Humans have been searching for the fountain of youth.A scientist named Dr David proved last year that reversing(逆转) the age of a cell is possible. It will allow us to live healthy lives for an extended period of time.Here are some ways you can improve your health today.
Relieve your joints.There is something called hyaluronic acid (玻尿酸) in your joints.You might have heard of it being put into skin creams before.It holds a lot of moisture and is used to relieve dry eye as well as improve the skin, remove wrinkles, make joints healthy.
Maximise your exercise.While it's clear that living healthily and exercising may only bring minor life extension, exercise helps with a wide range of longevity pathways.It seems that resistance exercise is the best for health and longevity.But remember, you don't have to lift heavy weights if you don't want to. We recommend using resistance bands as they are personalised based on your current performance.
Sleep better.Sleep is an essential time for our bodily repair. Watching TV late at night, sleeping in a room where there is too much light, and not having a night time routine can all affect sleep.
Improve your memory. Fasting for more than 48 hours has been shown to activate something called autophagy (自体吞噬), which is where the body gets rid of cells it no longer needs making room for new ones.If you prefer not to fast, you can take an ingredient called spermidine (亚精胺) instead.It is an element found naturally in wheatgerm, and is proven to improve brain performance.
A.A can of beans is sometimes enough!
B. It even shows promise for fighting cancer.
C.The only danger lies in not sleeping enough.
D.Protecting your brain is obviously very important.
E. When it is disturbed, particularly for extended periods, our bodies suffer.
F. Within a couple of decades this technology should be available to humans.
G. In 20 years we may have some science fiction style time machines for our bodies.

In a world of music streaming services, access to almost any song is just a few clicks away. Yet, the live performance lives on. People still fill sweaty basements, muddy fields and gilded concert halls to hear their favourite musicians play. And now neuroscientists might know why—live music engages the brain's emotion centres more than its recorded counterpart.
Concerts are immersive (沉浸式的) social experiences in which people listen to and feel the music together through crescendos(音乐渐强), key changes and rhythmic drops. Moreover, they are dynamic — artists can adapt their playing according to the crowd's reaction.
It was this last difference that led neuroscientists, based at the Universities of Zurich and Oslo, to study the brain responses of people listening to music. In the "live" experiment, participants lay in an MRI scanner listening to the music through earphones, while a pianist was positioned outside the room. The pianist was shown the participant's real-time brain activity as a form of feedback. In the recorded condition, participants listened to pre-recorded versions of the same tunes.
The scientists were interested in how live music affected the areas of the brain responsible for processing emotions, particularly the amygdala, an area deep inside the brain. The results, just published in the journal PNAS, revealed that live music had a significantly greater emotional impact. Whether the music conveyed happiness or sadness, dynamic live performances led to increased activity not only in the amygdala but also other parts of the brain's emotion processing network. The researchers also found that participants' brain activity tracked the acoustic (声学的) features of the music, like tempo(节奏) and pitch(音准), far more closely when it was played live.
While the study didn't fully recreate the live concert experience, the findings suggest that artists' ability to adjust their performance in real time contributes to the emotional resonance (共鸣) of live music. Some musical acts now attempt to recreate live concerts, such as ABBA Voyage, an immersive pre-recorded VR concert, but without artists' capacity to read audience's mood and respond accordingly, it will never quite match the real thing.
(1)、Why do people attend live shows despite music streaming services?A、Because they prefer being with friends at a concert. B、Because they enjoy the process of finding popular music. C、Because they intend to meet their favorite musicians in person. D、Because they value the emotional connection live music brings.(2)、The role of the pianist play in the "live" experiment is to ____.A、observe the participants' brain activity as feedback B、compare the effectiveness of live performances and recorded ones C、provide live accompaniment to participants inside the MRI scanner D、demonstrate their ability to read and respond to the audience's mood(3)、What did the study published in PNAS find about the impact of live music on the brain?A、Live music affected only the amygdala of the brain. B、The brain responded more intensely to acoustic features of live music. C、Live music had a reduced emotional impact compared to recorded music. D、The participants' brain activity was especially sensitive to dynamic music.(4)、What does the author suggest by mentioning ABBA Voyage in the last paragraph?A、It fails to create a perfect performing atmosphere. B、It matches the sound quality of live performances. C、It greatly stirs up the audience's emotional response. D、It lacks artists' response based on audience's feedback. -

On paper, hydrogen looks like a dream fuel.In practice, things are trickier.Storing meaningful quantities of hydrogen gas requires compressing (压缩) it several hundred times.Transforming it into liquid state is another option, but one that requires cooling the stuff to -253℃.Either process requires rugged tanks. Over time, hydrogen gas can pass slowly into metals, weakening them and potentially causing cracks.Tanks must be built from special materials designed to resist this breakdown.
Researchers at the Fraunhofer Institute led by Marcus Vogt, think that supplying hydrogen as goop (糊状) offers a way around some of its limitations.They have been experimenting with a chemical compound that can be pumped into a container and then persuaded to give off its hydrogen on demand.
Their invention, which they nickname "powerpaste", looks like toothpaste.Its main ingredient is magnesium hydride, a compound that when introduced to water, reacts with it to form hydrogen and magnesium hydroxide. The escaped hydrogen can then be redirected into a fuel cell, where it reacts with oxygen from the air to generate electric power. The magnesium hydroxide waste is emptied from the reactor automatically.
Dr Vogt's scheme offers several advantages over batteries, petrol and more conventional ways of handling hydrogen.One is the storage of energy that either batteries or petrol can manage.A second is ease of refilling, which is simply a matter of swapping an empty container of paste for a full one, and topping up the water, which is stored in a separate tank.A third advantage is that, unlike a battery, the paste does not gradually lose its stored energy if it is left on the shelf.Moreover, the paste itself is harmless, as are the reaction's by-products.
But there are still more to work through. Magnesium hydride reacts only slowly with water.To overcome this, Dr Vogt and his team have found a chemical additive that greatly accelerates the reaction.They have also found a way to ensure that the reaction can be controlled precisely enough to supply only as much hydrogen as is needed at any given moment.
(1)、Which of the following best explains "rugged" underlined in Paragraph 1?A、Creative. B、Fragile. C、Tough. D、Enormous.(2)、What can we know about the invention according to Paragraph 3?A、The remaining waste needs removing with extra help. B、Several chemical reactions occur in the same tank. C、Water and electricity are necessary in the process. D、Magnesium hydride mixed with water releases hydrogen.(3)、How is Paragraph 4 mainly developed?A、By providing examples. B、By drawing comparisons. C、By quoting sayings. D、By explaining a concept.(4)、What can be a suitable title for the text?A、Dream Fuel: Hydrogen Gas B、New Clean Energy C、Advantages of Hydrogen Goop D、"Toothpaste"in Your Tank -

The summer before my 10th birthday my father moved our family of nine kids to a farm.We had always lived in a small city,in the house my dad had gotten from my grandparents who had wanted fresh air,green food and lots of room for their children but failed.My father held the same will.He'd worked multiple jobs and saved for many years and could finally afford a place in the countryside.Now a minor concern: the house had no running water or electricity.But there were 150 acres to run around in!
That first year my dad put in electricity,because my mom simply announced,"I won't have oil lamps with children running around!" Indoor plumbing (管道系统) had to wait another year.Different friends,who my dad knew from work,asked if he'd take their large dogs who couldn't run free in the city.So we all now played with a big orange-brown boxer and a sporty German Shorthaired Pointer, who we named Billy and Molly.

We'd take turns once every 9 years a child would have his/her own party!
While money was so scarce, we had joy to hand all the time. My mother was always singing, yelling, or hugging.And she told us we owned plenty!To this day,each of us remembers those years as an abundance of things,laughter,arguing,making peace,and playing together! Every challenge was a game to defeat, and any failure was a chance to learn there.
