1、 阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
It was a typical weekend for Mitch White and his friends. They were out celebrating a bachelor party, sailing the peaceful waters of the Minnesota River. They never expected that this single party would transform from a relaxed canoe trip into a painful rescue mission. With the sun setting, an unexpected bark changed everything.
Led by Mitch White, the soon-to-be-married man, they searched for the source of the sound along the banks of the river. Suddenly, a weak cry for help came from the mud. They were surprised to find that the head of a 13-year-old St. Bernard named Ed was barely visible in the thick mud. Mitch said, "The dog wasn't moving on its own, so we should feed it and give it water. " The dog looked like i had used all its strength.
The men took up their oars(桨) and began digging, their festive mood giving way to a focused rescue mission. It took them more than half an hour to free the trapped dog as it was already breathing very feebly after possibly being trapped for 24 hours. When they got the poor fellow out of the mud, he couldn't walk, so they carried him back to the house. Back home with his owner, George Niskanen, Ed began his slow restoration-a happy ending to a dangerous adventure. George was thankful to the bachelor party heroes.
Now, the people of Carver, Minnesota, have new heroes to cheer for. Indeed, this incredible act of bravery and compassion redefined the meaning of a bachelor party. It became a heroic tale of humanity, friendship, and the instinct(本能)to do what's right.

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短文。
The Secret of Growing Flowers
Amy helped her mother in their vegetable garden every day, so the vegetables would be healthy and ready for the market. Amy often pretended the plants she took care of were beautiful chrysants (菊花) , like Mrs. Taylor's prize flowers.
"Foolish girl!" her mother scolded. "No one in our poor village wastes money so foolishly on flowers. Take care of the vegetables. That's our living."
Amy knew her mother was right. The only person in the village who made money by selling flowers was Mrs. Taylor. Every year she won first prize at the Chrysant Festival. Other competitors whispered that Taylor used magic to grow her chrysants.
Amy envied Mrs. Taylor. But chrysants were expensive to start, and Amy could only dream about growing them.
One day, Amy visited Mrs. Taylor. Mrs. Taylor was inspecting her chrysants. "Spying on me again!" Taylor frowned. "But, Mrs. Taylor, I only come to see your flowers." Amy took a deep breath. "I wish I could grow beautiful chrysants and win a prize at the festival like you."
"You?" Mrs. Taylor laughed. "Child, do you know what's required to grow such flowers? The secret of growing chrysants has been passed down from my grandfather. Stick to vegetables. Leave flowers to those who know the secret." Taylor pulled up a weak plant and threw it away.
Suddenly Amy had an idea. She asked for Taylor's permission to have that plant, dashed back home, and grew it behind the cottage. She leaned close to the hanging leaves and whispered, "Grow, little flower. You don't have to win a prize. Just grow." She took care of her plant every morning and evening. "You are my beautiful plant," Amy would sing softly, as she weeded and watered it. "Someday, you will bloom (开花) prettier than any flower at the festival." Each time Amy visited her little plant, it looked greener and taller. Time seemed to fly by as the festival neared.

1. 续写词数应为 150左右;
2.请在答题卡的相应位置作答。
On the morning of the festival, when Amy visited her plant again, she screamed with delight.
