Of all the sports, soccer is what I find joy in the most, and the House Cup is one competition that I will never forget.
I was 12 when I first encountered soccer, but I didn't get much of a chance to play. When I entered high school, I was thrilled to know that there was a soccer team. My fellow teammates were quite skilled and I had a hard time keeping pace, so I tried my best in every class. Day by day, my passion for soccer grew and I began to love the sport. It wasn't easy for me to improve, but each time I touched the ball, I got a bit better.
The soccer House Cup is a traditional competition in our school. Our team trained hard for these games but for various reasons, we didn't win any matches. But I can still remember the lunch hours when we practiced, passing the ball to one another, shooting at the goal, and trying repeatedly to master certain moves. I can still recall moments of the matches, defending, taking control of the ball, and passing the ball to other teammates. I can still hear the cheering of the crowd after we made our shot at the goal and succeeded.
The best moment of the matches was when we faced House Gewu, a strong opponent. At half-time, the score stood at 3-0. All my teammates are at low morale(士气), and that's when our goalkeeper said, "We are not winning, but we will not go down without a fight. Let's struggle and strive(努力) to the end. "You can tell that her words cheered us. The final score was 4-0, and we did our best.
It's usually believed that to win the championship is the most important thing, but for me, it is the process of fighting with teammates shoulder to shoulder and the spirit presented on the field that are the most valuable. I will always treasure these experiences.

13、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文章。
Throughout the course of our existence, there exists an abundance of blessings that we ought to be grateful for, yet many individuals, myself included, often fail to recognize and appreciate them.
During the formative years of my life, I aspired to emulate the virtues of my mother. She was a paragon of kindness and compassion, possessing an uncanny ability to put others at ease. For an extended period, she dedicated her time and efforts as a volunteer within our community. I relished accompanying her to the local nursing home, assisting her in her charitable endeavors, until my teenage years, when I became so engrossed in my own life that I neglected to extend a helping hand to others.
On a particular summer day during my twelfth year, my mother entered my room and instructed me to rise and join her at the vehicle. I had envisioned spending the day by the lake in the company of friends. Why, I wondered, did she have to disrupt my plans? Reluctantly, I made my way outdoors, envisioning the refreshing lake water against my skin. Consumed by frustration, I climbed into the car, slamming the door shut behind me, and sat in silence, too disheartened to engage in conversation.
"Tasha, would you be interested in knowing our destination?" my mother inquired, her voice serene and composed.
"I suppose so," I muttered quietly, barely audible.
"Darling, we are heading to a shelter for children," she elucidated. "I have visited this place previously, and I believe it would be beneficial for you to experience."
My irritation intensified. How could I possibly be of assistance in such a setting?
Upon our arrival at the shelter, I was taken aback by its appearance. It was a grand, white Victorian-style residence. As we approached the expansive front porch, the melodious sound of wind chimes filled the air, while the surrounding trees and flora greeted us with a sense of tranquility. It seemed that perhaps this experience might not be as dreadful as I had initially anticipated.
My mother rang the doorbell, and as the door opened, we were ushered into the front room where all the children were engaged in play. Toys were scattered across the floor. My gaze fell upon a baby with visible injuries on his body. The majority of the children bore evident physical marks such as lacerations, abrasions, and burns. The realization of the hardships they had endured prior to finding refuge in this place weighed heavily on my heart.
注意:(1)续写词数应为150左右;(2)续写部分分为两段,每段的开头语已为你写好。
Paragraph 1:
As I was looking around, I felt a gentle pull on my shirt.
Paragraph 2:
I returned to the shelter with Mom several times.

Here's why Disney World doesn't have mosquitoes (蚊子)
There is a lot that goes into making Disney World the "Most Magical Place on Earth".Considering Walt Disney World is in Central Florida,and has various amusement parks at Walt Disney World,there is one thing missing from the huge property that you may not have even noticed:mosquitoes.
Naturally,this is due to efforts from Walt Disney World staff to ensure health among guests and a uniform consumer experiences. Disney employs a project called the "Mosquito Surveillance Program" which can avoid the noisy pests and keep visitors safe from the threat of disease.
Mosquitoes are attracted to the gas,which is one reason why they are so good at finding humans,as we breathe it out constantly.Once caught,the mosquitoes are then frozen and studied in labs where experts discover the best ways to keep mosquitoes off of our skin when we arrive on-site.
Due to the birds' immunity to mosquito-borne viruses such as West Nile they can be used to observe the presence of the virus without experiencing any harmful symptoms (症状)after that.The chickens are kept in cages,unlike flying birds that would travel long distances.So,if a virus is detected,it is easy for Disney to find out exactly which part of their parks has been affected by viral mosquitoes.
Occasionally,Disney has had to close certain sections of their park during the busiest times. It's time of year when we can finally get back outdoors in Disney with family and friends without worry.
A.So,how do they manage to do it?
B.Mosquitoes are found throughout the world.
C.The warm damp air attracts a lot of mosquitoes.
D.Additionally,Disney keeps chickens throughout the parks.
E.It is to search for mosquitoes and revise events by moving outdoor equipment inside.
F.Across the numerous parks at Disney World are more than 60 CO2 catching devices.
G.Though mosquitoes haven't been completely swept away,they are really hard to find.

If you aspire to master a new language, consider the intriguing suggestion from Swansea University scholars to "sleep on it." These researchers are probing the nexus of sleep patterns, the act of dreaming, and the critical process of memory consolidation—the mechanism by which memories are more firmly embedded in the brain. A forthcoming study in the Journal of Sleep Research scrutinizes the interplay between sleep and the perceived significance of information on its memorability. Participants were slumbered in a state-of-the-art laboratory setting, with their cerebral activity under constant surveillance. The subjects, native English speakers who had just arrived in Wales, were tasked with committing Welsh vocabulary to memory and were subsequently tested after a 12-hour interval. One cohort was required to retain the information while awake, whereas the other group was permitted to sleep in the lab. Those who availed themselves of sleep demonstrated superior performance in the vocabulary assessment, and an enhanced interest in the Welsh language further bolstered their results. Parallel studies conducted in the sleep lab, showcased at the British Science Festival, endeavor to discern whether dreams are merely a byproduct of other nocturnal activities. To decode the timing and substance of dreams, the research team examined the dreams recounted by participants in their own narratives, immediately post-awakening. This investigation revealed that the probability of dream occurrence is notably elevated—approximately 80 percent during REM sleep. This phase of the sleep cycle, distinguished by swift ocular movements, is presumed to significantly contribute to the consolidation of memories. The electrical activity within the brain fluctuates markedly across various sleep stages, a factor that aided researchers in gauging the duration and quality of sleep, enabling them to rouse participants at specific junctures in the sleep cycle. The findings indicate that daytime experiences are more prone to crystallize into dreams with a one-day lag and are likely to reoccur repeatedly after an interval of five to seven nights. This phenomenon has been termed the "dream-lag effect."
(1)、What was the primary objective of the study conducted by Swansea University scholars?A、To understand the effect of sleep on physical health. B、To investigate the relationship between sleep and language learning. C、To determine the impact of dreams on creativity. D、To study the role of REM sleep in memory consolidation.(2)、How was the experiment conducted in the sleep lab?A、Participants were asked to learn Welsh vocabulary and then were tested after 24 hours. B、Participants were monitored for their brain activity while they were awake. C、Participants were tested on their Welsh vocabulary immediately after learning. D、Participants were tested on their Welsh vocabulary after a 12-hour interval, with one group sleeping and the other remaining awake.(3)、What was the term used to describe the phenomenon where daytime experiences turn into dreams after a one-day lag?A、The "sleep-lag effect." B、The "dream-lag effect." C、The "REM effect." D、The "consolidation effect."(4)、What was the significant finding regarding the timing and substance of dreams?A、Dreams are most likely to occur during non-REM sleep. B、Dreams are recounted immediately after waking up. C、The probability of dream occurrence is notably elevated during REM sleep. D、Dreams are a byproduct of daytime activities and are immediately forgotten. -

If you want to learn a language,try sleeping on it.This is the advice from researchers at Swansea University who are studying the interaction between sleep patterns,dreaming and memory consolidation (记忆巩固)—the process for laying down memories in the brain more securely.
In a study to be published in Journal of Sleep Research,the scientists looked at how sleep and the value attached to pieces of information a fleet their memorability.Participants in the study slept in a specially designed lab,while their brain activity was being monitored.
Native English speakers who had recently arrived in Wales had to memorize Welsh words and were tested on them 12 hours later.One group had to remember the information during the daytime,while the other slept on it in the lab.
The sleepers performed much better in a test of their newly acquired vocabulary—and caring about the Welsh language further improved performance.
Related work in the sleep lab,presented at the British Science Festival,aims to understand whether they are a byproduct of other events occurring during sleep.To understand the timing and content of dreams,the team analyzed the dreams participants reported in their own words,immediately on being woken.
This research found that the likelihood of experiencing a dream is particularly high—about 80 per cent during REM sleep.This part of the sleep cycle,characterized by rapid eye movements,is thought to play an important role in memory consolidation.
Electrical activity in the brain varies significantly at different stages of sleep.This helped researchers to monitor the length and quality of sleep,and to wake participants at particular points in the sleep cycle.
The research found daytime events were more likely to be formed into dreams with a one-day delay and to happen again and again after another five to seven nights.This is called the dream-lag effect.
(1)、What is the study mentioned in the text mainly about?A、The way to learn a language. B、The effect sleep has on memory. C、The experiment in a specially designed lab. D、The phenomenon of dream-lag effect.(2)、What does the underlined word "them" in the 3rd paragraph refer to?A、The sleepers. B、The Welsh words. C、The researchers. D、The native English speakers.(3)、What do we know about REM sleep?A、It always comes with a dream. B、It is harmful to humans. C、It is important to memory consolidation. D、It lasts throughout the night.(4)、From which section of a magazine is the text most probably taken?A、Economy. B、Entertainment. C、Society. D、Science. -

Kristin Schell is the visionary behind The Turquoise Table, an initiative that encourages the establishment of community within the confines of one's own front yard. A decade ago, she relocated with her family to a fresh abode in Austin, Texas.
In an effort to foster connections with her neighbors, Kristin hosted a convivial gathering. During the event, a mishap occurred when a delivery individual mistakenly placed one of the picnic tables in her front yard. Post-party, Kristin, enamored with the color turquoise, decided to repaint the misplaced table in her favorite hue and positioned it near the sidewalk.
This vibrant table quickly became the epicenter of Kristin's family life, serving as a spot for leisurely activities such as games, crafts, and snacks. Kristin remarks, "We got intentional about where we spent our time. We became 'front yard people.'"
As the allure of the turquoise table drew in passersby, neighbors began to make their acquaintance and engage in casual conversations. Kristin extended invitations for coffee or iced tea, seated at the table. Soon, the idea spread, with neighbors inquiring about replicating the picnic table concept in their own yards. Thus, a grassroots movement was ignited, as Kristin describes, "It was a simple way to slow down and connect with others." The table, with its inviting nature, became a communal hub.
Often, individuals are reluctant to extend invitations into their private spaces, citing reasons such as disorder, inadequate size, or time constraints. Kristin notes, "Our perfectionism can cause us to miss out on the joy of connecting with others." Her picnic table serves to eliminate these barriers and alleviate associated pressures.
Kristin cherishes the table's role in combating loneliness and nurturing relationships within her community. She believes, "People's greatest need is to know that they are loved and that they belong."
A decade following its inception in Texas, the Turquoise Table phenomenon has flourished, with thousands of such tables dotting all 50 states and spanning across 13 countries globally. Kristin emphasizes that regardless of the color, each table serves as a "friendship table," a symbol of unity and connection.
(1)、What was Kristin's purpose of initiating the movement?A、To play with her family in her front yard. B、To engage with people in the neighbourhood. C、To help her neighbors to reduce the pressure. D、To invite her friends and neighbors to her party.(2)、What can we learn from the text?A、Kristin bought the turquoise table to host a party. B、People refused to join in the front yard chat at first. C、The campaign has a big impact at home and abroad. D、People are unwilling to invite strangers to step into their houses.(3)、Which of the following words best describe Kristin according to the text?A、Caring and competent. B、Friendly and reliable. C、Generous and gentle. D、Creative and sociable.(4)、Which of the following is a suitable title for the text?A、Tables Where All Are Welcome B、An Amazing Idea About Tables C、Happy Front Yard Time With Family D、Keep Your Neighbors Relaxed
