1、 读后续写
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。
It was the day of the big cross-country run.Students from seven different primary schools in and around the small town were warming up and walking the route(路线) through thick evergreen forest.
I looked around and finally spotted David,who was standing by himself off to the side by a fence.He was small for ten years old.His usual big toothy smile was absent today.I walked over and asked him why he wasn't with the other children.He hesitated and then said he had decided not to run.
What was wrong?He had worked so hard for this event!
I quickly searched the crowd for the school's coach and asked him what had happened."I was afraid that kids from other schools would laugh at him," he explained uncomfortably."I gave him the choice to run or not,and let him decide."
I bit back my frustration(懊恼).I knew the coach meant well—he thought he was doing the right thing.After making sure that David could run if he wanted,I turned to find him coming towards me,his small body rocking from side to side as he swung his feet forward.
David had a brain disease which prevented him from walking or running like other children,but at school his classmates thought of him as a regular kid.He always participated to the best of his ability in whatever they were doing.That was why none of the children thought it unusual that David had decided to join the cross-country team.It just took him longer—that's all.David had not missed a single practice,and although he always finished his run long after the other children,he did always finish.As a special education teacher at the school,I was familiar with the challenges David faced and was proud of his strong determination.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
We sat down next to each other,but David wouldn't look at me.
……
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners.

The amount of plastic pollution in the oceans is rapidly increasing.This is problematic,as at least 700 kinds of ocean animals—including sharks,whales,seabirds and turtles—can become caught in the stuff or mistake it for a tasty snack.
While we know that some ocean animals seem to catch plastic because it looks like jellyfish or some other food sources,less research has been carried out into what plastic smells like to ocean animals.But now,a study from the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill has found the coating(涂层) that naturally builds up on ocean plastics causes the rubbish to give off the smell of food.
The researchers took 15 turtles,each around five months old,and placed them in a lab aquarium.They then piped in smells of clean water,clean plastic,turtle food,and plastic that had been soaking in the ocean environment for five weeks.The turtles showed no reaction to the smells of clean water or clean plastic.But when facing ocean soaked plastic or turtle food,they stuck their noses out of the water and showed increased activity.
"This finding is important because it's the first proof that the smell of ocean plastics causes animals to eat them," said Dr Kenneth J Lohmann,who took part in the study."It's common to find a turtle with its stomach full of plastic materials.There are also increasing reports of sea turtles that have become ill and stuck on the beach due to their taking in plastic."
According to the researchers,areas of the ocean with much plastic may trick turtles and other animals into thinking that there are plenty of food sources,when the opposite is true."Once these plastics are in the ocean,we don't have a good way to remove them or prevent them from smelling like food," said Lohmann."The best thing we can do is keep plastic from getting into the ocean at all."
(1)、Why is plastic pollution posing a threat to ocean animals?A、It may mislead them as food. B、It may eat up all jellyfish. C、It may kill them with its smell. D、It may trap 700 species of sea animals.(2)、What smell did turtles prefer according to the study?A、Sea water. B、Clean water. C、Clean plastic. D、Ocean-soaked plastic.(3)、What do we know from the study?A、Turtles seem to eat plastic because it looks like food. B、Turtles have died out due to their taking in plastic. C、Turtles eat plastic because it gives off the smell of food. D、Turtles with their stomachs full of plastic were studied.(4)、What are we supposed to do according to Dr.Kenneth J Lohmann?A、Keep away from the polluted ocean. B、Maintain a plastic-free ocean. C、Remove plastic from the ocean. D、Stop people feeding turtles plastic. -

John "Charlie" Veron—widely known as "the Godfather of Coral Reef(珊瑚礁)"—is a celebrated expert who has personally discovered nearly a quarter of the world's coral species and has spent the past 45 years diving Australia's Great Barrier Reef.But now the 73-year-old is raising the alarm about its future.The Great Barrier Reef,one of the natural wonders,is 2,300 kilometres long and is the only living organism that can be seen from space.It is considered a World Treasure Site due to its biodiversity with 30 species of whales,dolphins and sharks.Within the reef itself,there are also a number of tiny organisms and fishes.
However,its health is threatened.After the recent mass bleaching(白化) events,Veron dived in many areas of the Great Barrier Reef to see the damage for himself."I was seeing and feeling it and it was absolutely shocking," he says.
Veron says the mass bleaching events in the past few years—and the possibility of losing one of nature's greatest treasures—were a wake-up call for the world in the wider battle against climate change,which,together with the rising sea temperature,is considered the greatest threats to the reef.
Fortunately,earlier this year,the Australian government announced nearly 400 million dollars in new funding towards scientific projects designed to help the reef.
There has been criticism in Australia about the slow process for the funding."It won't be wasted,though," Veron says."As scientists will be able to create a sort of seed bank to protect the species until the climate is good enough to rebuild the reef.What the scientists hope to do is help nature along a bit after the big carbon dioxide increase is over and it starts to come down."
(1)、Why is the Great Barrier Reef considered a treasure site?A、It is a natural wonder. B、It can be seen from space. C、It has a rich variety of species. D、It is home to a great many fishes.(2)、What does the passage mainly tell us?A、Climate change is threatening biodiversity. B、The Great Barrier Reef is in danger of extinction. C、Scientists have found major factors in the reef's blenching. D、Veron has made great contributions to environmental protection.(3)、What's Veron's attitude to the future of the reef according to the last paragraph?A、Uncaring. B、Doubtful. C、Uncertain. D、Positive.(4)、What is the text?A、A news report. B、A travel guide. C、A research plan. D、A journal entry. -

Artificial intelligence (AI) still can't see the future,but a new algorithm (算法) may come close: using nothing but written movie summaries,AI can consistently tell which films will play well—or awfully—to critics and audiences.If the model can be further improved,it could one day help producers predict whether a movie will be a failure at the box office,before it's even made.
To test several AI models,researchers used plot summaries of 42,306 movies from all over the world,many collected from Wikipedia.The models broke the summaries by sentences and used something called sentiment (情感) analysis to analyze each one.Sentences considered "positive",such as "Thor loves his hammer",would receive a rating closer to a positive one.And sentences that were considered "negative",like "Thor gets in a fight" would be rated closer to a negative one.
Generally,successful movies such as 1951's Alice in Wonderland—which scored 80% on the movie-rating website Rotten Tomatoes—have frequent waves in sentiment;unsuccessful ones,such as 2009's The Limits of Control,vary less.It's not important whether the films begin or end happily,the researchers say.What's important is that the sentiment changes frequently.
The sentiment ratings in each summary were then simplified into a single score to reflect how often the sentiment changed.The researchers tested three different methods of arriving at a final score.All three could predict fairly accurately whether a movie would be unpopular,and one method worked especially well for guessing which thrillers and comedies reviewers would hate.
The methods were not as efficient at guessing which movies would succeed,but they still predicted the results more accurately than random chance.In the future,the researchers say their methods could be bettered to predict the amount a movie could earn at the box office and help producers decide which movies to invest in.The system's fair judgment might give an advantage to less well-known writers,the researchers add.It could also potentially save the public from having to sit through films like Jaws: The Revenge,which online critics and audiences alike rate as terrible.
(1)、How can AI help foresee the future of movies?A、By testing plot models. B、By using sentiment analysis. C、By writing summaries. D、By consulting critics and audiences.(2)、What is the key to a successful movie according to the researchers?A、A happy ending. B、Famous movie stars. C、A well-known producer. D、Frequent sentiment changes.(3)、What benefit will the methods possibly bring?A、Increasing box office earnings. B、Assessing a movie's quality accurately. C、Providing written summaries for critics. D、Helping producers make sensible decisions.(4)、What's the researchers' attitude to the model?A、Doubtful. B、Cautious. C、Optimistic. D、Unclear. -
