[河北张家口2020高一阶段测试]At thirteen，I was diagnosed（诊断）with a kind of attention disorder. It made school difficult for me. When everyone else in the class was focusing on tasks，I could not.
In my first literature class，Mrs Smith asked us to read a story and then write about it，all within 45 minutes.
I raised my hand right away and said，"Mrs Smith，you see，the doctor said I have attention problems. I might not be able to do it.”
She glanced at me through her glasses，"You are not different from your classmates，young man."
I tried，but I didn't finish the reading when the bell rang. I had to take it home.
In the quietness of my bedroom，the story suddenly all became clear to me. It was about a blind person，Louis Braille. He lived in a time when the blind couldn't get much education. But Louis didn't give up. Instead，he invented a reading system of raised dots（点），which opened up a whole new world of knowledge to the blind.
Wasn't I the “blind” in my class，being made to learn like the “sighted" students？My thoughts spilt out（涌出）and my pen started to dance. I completed the task within 40 minutes. Indeed，I was not different from others；I just needed a quieter place. If Louis could find his way to solve his problems，why should I ever give up？
I didn't expect anything when I handed in my paper to Mrs Smith，so it was quite a surprise when it came back to me the next day-with an "A" on it. At the bottom of the paper were these words: "See what you can do when you keep trying！”

From now，if all goes well，a high-tech spacecraft will land at the South Pole of the moon. There，it will drill 66 feet down into the surface and collect samples of the lunar mantle（月幔）to bring them back to the earth.
But before it leaves，it will have a two-part time capsule（时间囊）：a public part，full of the earth's history，and a private part，full of digital memory boxes created by individuals. These memory boxes can hold digital files-records of family trees，videos or actual DNA in the form of human hair. Not everyone can have a digital memory box，though. The boxes are only delivered for the people who donate money to the project.
The project，called Lunar Mission One，has already raised more than half of its ￡ 600，000 goal since its start just a few days ago. The founders thought that it would succeed because of the attraction of both exploring the moon surface and leaving a time capsule behind. The mission was an action of scientific research，but it was also an emotional one，bringing the excitement of knowing that something humans built on the earth reached somewhere else in space.
Still，it does seem risky（冒险的）for a person to donate ￡60 to keep a digital memory box of a project that won't come true until 2024.What if the project never takes off？What if the technology isn't good enough？What if those digital memory boxes break on the moon's surface And how will anybody ever know if that happens Ian Crawford, a professor at Birkbeck College in London and scientific advisor to the mission, says it is not necessary to worry about these. The plan to leave a time capsule on the moon isn't really about physically leaving something on the moon-it's more an opportunity to encourage people's interest in space.
1. Who can have a digital memory box on the moon
A.A person who donated ￡ 60 to the project.
B.A person who has records of family trees.
C.A person who is in charge of the project.
D.A person who is interested in exploring the moon.
2. What can be learnt about Lunar Mission One from Paragraph 3
A. The spacecraft was successfully started just a few days ago.
B. It will explore the moon surface and leave a time capsule on the moon.
C. It was created because of the excitement of knowing something in space.
D. It was an action of scientific research because it was designed with rich emotion.
3. Why does it seem risky to donate ￡60 to keep a digital memory box
A. The spacecraft won't be sent on time.
B. The technology isn't good enough.
C. The project won't come true until 2034.
D. There are various possibilities in such a long time.
4. What can be concluded from the last sentence of the passage
A. Everything about the project will be OK.
B. The time capsule on the moon is not meaningful.
C. The plan to leave a time capsule on the moon is scientific.
D. The message of the project is to call forth people's more attention on space.

2 Clubs are probably the easiest and most direct route to getting involved. Typically，high schools have clubs that focus on a wide variety of themes.

Christmas was around the corner. Six-year-old David was thinking what presents he could get from Santa. He wanted a pair of slippers; he wanted a silk tie; he wanted some toys. And school was starting soon，he also hoped to get something about schooling. In order to get Santa to know what he needed，he thought he would write a letter to Santa，which he believed would bring him those presents. He found a sheet of paper and made a list of the items on it，and then bent down to post the letter in the chimney，waiting for the wind to take it to Santa. David got up very early on the Christmas morning. He searched his room carefully，but to his disappointment，he didn't find the presents he had hoped for. Hadn't Santa received the letter？Was he too busy to send him the gifts？Although feeling a little upset，David was convinced that Santa would not forget him and he was bound to receive the items.
Many years had passed and 2019 came. In an old house，a young builder，Lewis Shaw was removing the fireplace with his colleagues when he suddenly found a small piece of paper，which was still in perfect condition even if it had turned yellow. He picked it up and unfolded it. It was a letter written to Santa. The touching hand-written note said：
Dear Father Christmas，
Please can you send me a drum，a box of chalks，a pair of slippers，a silk tie，a pencil box，and any little toy you have to spare？
Love,
David
This was the very letter written by David and the house was where he had lived during his childhood！The letter struck Shaw so much. How simple Christmas once was！David didn't ask for much，just the things he just needed. Nowadays kids always want expensive gifts and take it for granted.

【写作提示】
1.材料导读：
所给材料讲述了幼年时的戴维曾给圣诞老人写了一封信，信里列出了他想要的礼物，但是圣诞节那天他并没有收到那些礼物。几十年后一名建筑工人肖在一所老房子的烟自里发现了这封信，他被这封信的内容所感动，想帮戴维实现当年的愿望。
2.续写思路：
续写第一段开头为：肖决定找出这封信的作者，他将这封信的照片分享到了脸书上。所以本段应该写肖是如何找到戴维的以及戴维看到自己曾经写给圣诞老人的信时的反应。第二段开头为：一个大惊喜正在路上。本段应该具体描写“大惊喜”是什么，比如可能是戴维在信中提到的礼物。
3.提分词句：connected with，had sth fulfilled，where Shaw returned the letter to him（where 引导非限制性定语从句），Inside it were all the presents David..…（完全倒装）等。
【参考范文】
Shaw decided to find out the author of the letter. He shared a photo of the note on Facebook. He also spoke to the neighbours on both sides of the house. Within two days he connected with David, the old man living in a town nearby now. They met in the old house, where Shaw returned the letter to him. David was both shocked and excited that he could read the letter again so many years after he wrote it!
A great surprise was on the way. After a pleasant chat, Shaw handed David a box. Inside it were all the presents David had listed in the letter. In fact, it had taken Shaw much time to collect these presents. He even didn't know where to find a drum suitable for children before he was able to get one. David was quite moved-he finally had his Christmas wishes fulfilled!
