The life of a premature (早产的) baby born during the winter storm in Texas was saved thanks to a team of medical professionals, including a doctor and two nurses who traveled from east Austin to Marble Falls in an effort to save a newborn baby's life.
When Arias began experiencing pains, she and her parents headed to the closest hospital, Baylor Scott & White. Arias gave birth to her daughter, Zaylynn, who weighed just over one pound and was in need of advanced special care. However, the hospital does not offer the specialized care premature babies require.
"We had five or six people out at the nurses' station calling hospital networks all over the state of Texas," said Meredith Schubert, the labor and delivery nurse on duty when Arias arrived. "Nobody could answer our cry for help."
They finally reached Dr. John Loyd through a patient, division neonatologist chief at Dell Children's Medical Center in Austin, Texas. Around 5 p.m., after already having worked a full shift, Loyd packed his SUV with equipment and he and two NICU nurses set out for Marble Falls, about 55 miles away. The drive took Loyd and the nurses about two hours as they drove in the night through ice and snow.
After safely arriving at the Marble Falls medical center around 8 p.m., the Dell Children's crew set up a temporary newborn ICU. Together, the Dell Children's and Baylor Scott & White teams worked around the clock to care for the mother and daughter.
Once the weather cleared enough to allow for a helicopter to safely land, Zaylynn was transferred to Dell Children's, where there is a Level IV newborn intensive care unit.
"It was incredible when the helicopter lifted off. There were tears from all of us," said Schubert. "It was a huge relief and sense of accomplishment and joy that Zaylynn was doing so well and getting to the place that she needed to be."
Arias told KVUE that she was grateful to the doctors and nurses who worked together to save her daughter.
4. What did the newborn baby need badly
A. Professional surgery. B. Special intensive nursing.
C. Immediate transfer. D. Experienced doctors.
5. Which word best describes Schubert's cry for help before reaching Loyd
A. Timely. B. Hopeful. C. Desperate. D. Encouraging.
6. What was the most touching part about Loyd
A. He came with all the necessary equipment. B. He tried his best to maintain his honor.
C. He had enough bravery to drive at night. D. He drove to rescue at night in severe weather.
7. What made the doctors and nurses feel a sense of relief
A. The fine weather. B. The baby's improvement.
C. The takeoff of the helicopter. D. The baby's arrival at its destination.
C
Wildlife populations around the world are facing dramatic declines, according to new figures that have led environmental campaigners to call for urgent action to rescue the natural world. The 2022 Living Planet Index(指数) (LPI), produced by the Zoological Society of London (ZSL), reveals that studied populations of mammals, birds, reptiles (爬行动物) and fish have seen an average decline of 69 per cent since 1970, faster than previous predictions. The LPI tracked global biodiversity between 1970 and 2018, based on the monitoring of 31,821 populations of 5230 vertebrate (脊椎动物) species. Mark Wright of WWF says the degree of decline is destructive and continues to worsen. “We are not seeing any really positive signs that we are beginning to bend the curve of nature,” he says.
Freshwater vertebrates have been among the hardest-hit populations with monitored populations showing an average decline of 83 per cent since 1970. The Amazon pink river dolphin, for example, has experienced a 65 per cent decline in its population between 1994 and 2016. Habitat loss and reduction is the largest driver of wildlife loss in all regions around the world.
In December, governments from around the world will gather in Montreal, Canada, for the COP15 Biodiversity Framework to agree on a set of new targets intended to prevent the loss of animals, plants and habitats globally by 2030. Robin, Freeman of ZSL, says “We need governments to take action to ensure that those goals deal with the complicated combined threats of climate change and biodiversity” says Freeman. But some researchers are critical of the LPI’s use of a headline figure of decline, warning it is easy to be misunderstood.
The findings don’t mean all species or populations worldwide are in decline. In fact, roughly half the populations show a stable or increasing trend, and half show a declining trend. “I think a more appropriate and useful way to look at it is to focus on specific species or populations,” says Hannah Ritchie. But Wright says the LPI is a useful tool that reflects the findings of other biodiversity indicators. “All of those show they all scream there is something going really very badly wrong,” says Wright.
8 What does the underlined phrase in the first paragraph mean
A. Loving and protecting nature. B. Preserving the diversity of nature.
C. Underestimating the benefits of nature. D. Destroying and changing nature.
9. In paragraph 2, the author mentions the Amazon pink river dolphin to show ______.
A. the number of Amazon dolphins is on the rise
B. some of the world’s wild animals are in decline
C. there are no positive measures to protect nature
D. freshwater vertebrates are at risk of extinction
10. What can we learn about people’s response to the issue mentioned in the passage
A. It makes sense to focus on a particular species.
B. Preventing the loss of habitats by 2030 is certain to happen.
C New agreement on the prevention of habitat loss will be in vain.
D. The Caribbean wildlife has been well protected in recent decades.
11. Which of the following is the best title of the passage
A. The COP15 Biodiversity Framework B. Urgent Action to Save the Earth
C. Wildlife Population Declining Sharply D. Correct Explanation of LPI
D
Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city In order to answer this question, we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may be other reasons—for example, economic reasons—why they should be preserved. So, let's assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed
In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own home town of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate（影响）its surroundings too much, it often improves attractiveness of the area.
It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt（破坏）the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative and do not like change.
Although we have to respect people's feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward. If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, though that might be the more risky choice.
12. What does the author say about historical buildings in the first paragraph
A. Some of them are not attractive. B. Most of them are too expensive to preserve.
C. They are more pleasing than modern buildings. D. They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.
13. Which of the following is true according to the author
A. We should reproduce the same old buildings.
B. Buildings should no dominate their surroundings.
C. Some old buildings have spoilt the area they are in.
D. No one understands why people speak against new buildings.
14. By "move things forward" in the last paragraph, the author probably means " "
A. destroy old buildings B. put things in a difference place
C. choose new architectural styles D. respect people's feeling for historical buildings
15. What is the main purpose of the passage
A. To explain why people dislike change B. To warn that we could end up living in caves.
C. To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings. D. To argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas.

47. 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。
As a young boy, I was always a troublemaker and up to no good. I liked playing tricks and enjoyed treating animals in an unfriendly way, like running after cats crazily, making them scared at the sight of me. Besides, I often used a handmade catapult (弹弓) to shoot at birds on the trees.
All this did afford me indescribable pleasure but also got me unkind stares and blames from people around. My parents disapproved of my behavior and were constantly criticizing me for the tricks I played. I was even given a good beating from my father from time to time. Nevertheless, I ignored their warnings and did not correct my ways until an incident occurred.
One summer noon when I was eight, I was alone at home and just finished lunch. Feeling very hot and bored, I decided to hang around the neighborhood, holding my trusty catapult.
Soon, I came to Mr Smith’s house. His pet dog, big and strong, was tied to a post outside his house, lying in the shade lazily. Looking around, I found that no one was in sight. I decided to make good use of my catapult to play tricks on the massive dog. Picking up a few small stones from the ground, I aimed at the dog and fired them one by one. Several stones hit the poor dog and it began to bark (吠) loudly in pain and jump up and down. But I felt so fun that I didn’t stop doing so. Eventually, the dog’s anger was fueled and it barked wildly at me while struggling to break away from the rope. Not realizing anything wrong with my crazy behavior, I was just laughing happily.
Suddenly, the rope that tied the dog loosened and the big dog got free from its bonds. In no time, with a few powerful steps the dog was on me. Its sharp teeth sank into my leg. I screamed with pain and fright and fell to the ground, shouting out for help.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Luckily, my miserable shouts caught Mr Smith’s attention.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
His words left me ashamed and I decided to make a change.

When Arias began experiencing pains, she and her parents headed to the closest hospital, Baylor Scott & White. Arias gave birth to her daughter, Zaylynn, who weighed just over one pound and was in need of advanced special care. However, the hospital does not offer the specialized care premature babies require.
"We had five or six people out at the nurses' station calling hospital networks all over the state of Texas," said Meredith Schubert, the labor and delivery nurse on duty when Arias arrived. "Nobody could answer our cry for help."
They finally reached Dr. John Loyd through a patient, division neonatologist chief at Dell Children's Medical Center in Austin, Texas. Around 5 p.m., after already having worked a full shift, Loyd packed his SUV with equipment and he and two NICU nurses set out for Marble Falls, about 55 miles away. The drive took Loyd and the nurses about two hours as they drove in the night through ice and snow.
After safely arriving at the Marble Falls medical center around 8 p.m., the Dell Children's crew set up a temporary newborn ICU. Together, the Dell Children's and Baylor Scott & White teams worked around the clock to care for the mother and daughter.
Once the weather cleared enough to allow for a helicopter to safely land, Zaylynn was transferred to Dell Children's, where there is a Level IV newborn intensive care unit.
"It was incredible when the helicopter lifted off. There were tears from all of us," said Schubert. "It was a huge relief and sense of accomplishment and joy that Zaylynn was doing so well and getting to the place that she needed to be."
Arias told KVUE that she was grateful to the doctors and nurses who worked together to save her daughter.
4. What did the newborn baby need badly
A. Professional surgery. B. Special intensive nursing.
C. Immediate transfer. D. Experienced doctors.
5. Which word best describes Schubert's cry for help before reaching Loyd
A. Timely. B. Hopeful. C. Desperate. D. Encouraging.
6. What was the most touching part about Loyd
A. He came with all the necessary equipment. B. He tried his best to maintain his honor.
C. He had enough bravery to drive at night. D. He drove to rescue at night in severe weather.
7. What made the doctors and nurses feel a sense of relief

Wildlife populations around the world are facing dramatic declines, according to new figures that have led environmental campaigners to call for urgent action to rescue the natural world. The 2022 Living Planet Index(指数) (LPI), produced by the Zoological Society of London (ZSL), reveals that studied populations of mammals, birds, reptiles (爬行动物) and fish have seen an average decline of 69 per cent since 1970, faster than previous predictions. The LPI tracked global biodiversity between 1970 and 2018, based on the monitoring of 31,821 populations of 5230 vertebrate (脊椎动物) species. Mark Wright of WWF says the degree of decline is destructive and continues to worsen. “We are not seeing any really positive signs that we are beginning to bend the curve of nature,” he says.
Freshwater vertebrates have been among the hardest-hit populations, with monitored populations showing an average decline of 83 per cent since 1970. The Amazon pink river dolphin, for example, has experienced a 65 per cent decline in its population between 1994 and 2016. Habitat loss and reduction is the largest driver of wildlife loss in all regions around the world.
In December, governments from around the world will gather in Montreal, Canada, for the COP15 Biodiversity Framework to agree on a set of new targets intended to prevent the loss of animals, plants and habitats globally by 2030. Robin, Freeman of ZSL, says “We need governments to take action to ensure that those goals deal with the complicated combined threats of climate change and biodiversity” says Freeman. But some researchers are critical of the LPI’s use of a headline figure of decline, warning it is easy to be misunderstood.
The findings don’t mean all species or populations worldwide are in decline. In fact, roughly half the populations show a stable or increasing trend, and half show a declining trend. “I think a more appropriate and useful way to look at it is to focus on specific species or populations,” says Hannah Ritchie. But Wright says the LPI is a useful tool that reflects the findings of other biodiversity indicators. “All of those show they all scream there is something going really very badly wrong,” says Wright.
8. What does the underlined phrase in the first paragraph mean
A. Loving and protecting nature. B. Preserving the diversity of nature.
C. Underestimating the benefits of nature. D. Destroying and changing nature.
9. In paragraph 2, the author mentions the Amazon pink river dolphin to show ______.
A. the number of Amazon dolphins is on the rise
B. some of the world’s wild animals are in decline
C. there are no positive measures to protect nature
D. freshwater vertebrates are at risk of extinction
10. What can we learn about people’s response to the issue mentioned in the passage
A. It makes sense to focus on a particular species.
B. Preventing the loss of habitats by 2030 is certain to happen.
C. New agreement on the prevention of habitat loss will be in vain.
D. The Caribbean wildlife has been well protected in recent decades.
11. Which of the following is the best title of the passage
A. The COP15 Biodiversity Framework B. Urgent Action to Save the Earth
C. Wildlife Population Declining Sharply D. Correct Explanation of LPI
【答案】8. B 9. D 10. A 11. C

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章讲述了世界各地的野生动物数量正面临急剧下降，人们要采取措施拯救自然世界。
【8题详解】
词句猜测题。根据文章第一段“The 2022 Living Planet Index (LPI), produced by the Zoological Society of London (ZSL), reveals that studied populations of mammals, birds, reptiles (爬行动物) and fish have seen an average decline of 69 per cent since 1970, faster than previous predictions.

Mark Wright of WWF says the degree of decline is destructive and continues to worsen. “We are not seeing any really positive signs that we are beginning to bend the curve of nature,” he says. (伦敦动物学会（ZSL）发布的2022年活星球指数（LPI）显示，自1970年以来，哺乳动物、鸟类、爬行动物和鱼类的研究种群平均下降了69%，比之前的预测更快。根据对5230种脊椎动物的31821个种群的监测，LPI在1970年至2018年间追踪了全球生物多样性。世界自然基金会（WWF）的马克·赖特表示，下降的程度是破坏性的，而且还在继续恶化。“我们没有看到任何真正积极的迹象表明我们正在开始bend the curve of nature,”他说)”可知，上文谈及地球生物多样性丧失的问题，且马克·赖特表示他没有看到人类有真正拯救地球生物多样性的积极迹象。由此推知，划线短语意为“保护自然的多样性（Preserving the diversity of nature）”。故选B项。
【9题详解】

(淡水脊椎动物一直是受影响最严重的种群之一，监测到的种群数量自1970年以来平均下降了83%。例如，1994年至2016年间，亚马逊粉红河海豚的种群数量下降了65%)”可推知，作者提到亚马逊粉红河海豚是为了表明淡水脊椎动物一直是受影响最严重的种群之一，一些淡水脊椎动物面临灭绝的危险。故选D项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段““I think a more appropriate and useful way to look at it is to focus on specific species or populations,” says Hannah Ritchie at Our World in Data. (“我认为更合适和有用的方法是关注特定物种或种群，”Hannah Ritchie在《我们的数据世界》中说道)”可知，关注某一特定物种是有意义的。故选A项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Wildlife populations around the world are facing dramatic declines, according to new figures that have led environmental campaigners to call for urgent action to rescue the natural world.

D
Should we allow modern buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city In order to answer this question, we must first examine whether people really want to preserve the historic feel of an area. Not all historical buildings are attractive. However, there may be other reasons—for example, economic reasons—why they should be preserved. So, let's assume that historical buildings are both attractive and important to the majority of people. What should we do then if a new building is needed
In my view, new architectural styles can exist perfectly well alongside an older style. Indeed, there are many examples in my own home town of Tours where modern designs have been placed very successfully next to old buildings. As long as the building in question is pleasing and does not dominate（影响）its surroundings too much, it often improves attractiveness of the area.
It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt（破坏）the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too. Yet people still speak against new buildings in historic areas. I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative and do not like change.
Although we have to respect people's feelings as fellow users of the buildings, I believe that it is the duty of the architect and planner to move things forward. If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves. Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, though that might be the more risky choice.
12. What does the author say about historical buildings in the first paragraph
A. Some of them are not attractive. B. Most of them are too expensive to preserve.
C. They are more pleasing than modern buildings. D. They have nothing to do with the historic feel of an area.
13. Which of the following is true according to the author
A. We should reproduce the same old buildings.
B. Buildings should no dominate their surroundings.
C. Some old buildings have spoilt the area they are in.
D. No one understands why people speak against new buildings.
14. By "move things forward" in the last paragraph, the author probably means " "
A. destroy old buildings B. put things in a difference place
C. choose new architectural styles D. respect people's feeling for historical buildings
15. What is the main purpose of the passage
A. To explain why people dislike change B. To warn that we could end up living in caves.
C. To admit how new buildings have ruined their surroundings. D. To argue that modern buildings can be built in historic areas.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. C 15. D
【解析】
【分析】本文为议论文。文章讨论了是否现代的建筑应该和古老的历史建筑在一起，在作者看来历史建筑应该保存，但是我们的建筑风格也应该改变，不能因为历史建筑破坏我们的生活。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Not all historical buildings are attractive(并不是所有的历史建筑都有吸引力)”可知一些历史建筑不够有吸引力，故选A。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“It is true that there are examples of new buildings which have spoilt（破坏）the area they are in, but the same can be said of some old buildings too(的确，一些新建筑破坏了它们所在的区域，但一些老建筑也同样如此)”可知，新建筑破坏了它们所在的区域，而古建筑也是这样，可知作者认为一些历史建筑将他们生活的地方破坏了，故选C。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第三段最后一句“I think this is simply because people are naturally conservative and do not like change(我认为这很简单，因为人们天生保守，不喜欢改变).”可知，作者认为人们天生保守，不喜欢改变，根据第四段第二句“If we always reproduced what was there before, we would all still be living in caves(如果我们总是重现以前的样子，我们都还会住在洞穴里)”可知，如果建筑师不改变建筑风格，我们现在还住在山洞里面，虽然我们必须尊重人们作为建筑使用者的感受，但建筑师和规划师要选择新的建筑风格，以推进事物的向前发展，选项C. choose new architectural styles(选择新的建筑风格)符合语境，故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段第一句“Should we allow modem buildings to be built next to older buildings in a historic area of a city(我们是否应该让现代建筑建在城市历史地段的老建筑旁边) ”作者提出问题，并对此展开论证，再根据最后一段最后一句 “Thus, I would argue against copying previous architectural styles and choose something fresh and different, though that might be the more risky choice(因此，我反对复制以前的架构风格，而选择一些新颖和不同的风格，尽管这可能是更危险的选择).” 可知作者得出结论，认为现代建筑可以建在历史区域。故选D。

____17____ Conversations are often filled with interruptions, and many people listen only when they can put in their own piece.

考查非谓语动词。句意：中华台北代表团的成员说他们被他们在杭州收到的热情款待深深地感动了，当地人的温暖和善良让他们感觉真正地像在家一样。分析句子结构可知，本句的谓语是said，所以空格处是非谓语动词，此处作后置定语，修饰members，members与participate“参加”是主动关系，所以用现在分词participating。故填participating。
【37题详解】
考查介词。句意：中华台北代表团的成员说他们被他们在杭州收到的热情款待深深地感动了，当地人的温暖和善良让他们感觉真正地像在家一样。根据空前的were deeply touched可知，本空填介词by，be touched by意为“被……感动”。故填by。
【38题详解】
考查副词。句意：中华台北代表团的成员说他们被他们在杭州收到的热情款待深深地感动了，当地人的温暖和善良让他们感觉真正地像在家一样。分析句子结构可知，本空用副词truly“真正地”，作状语。故填truly。
【39题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。句意：中国台北代表团由500多名运动员组成，参加了33个项目。分析句子结构可知，空格处是谓语，句子描述的是客观事实，所以用一般现在时，主语delegation“代表团”是第三人称单数，动词consist用第三人称单数形式consists，作谓语。故填consists。
【40题详解】
考查时态。句意：截至周五晚上8点30分，中华台北队共获得58枚奖牌，其中17枚金牌，16枚银牌和25枚铜牌，在奖牌榜上排名第七。动词win意“赢得”。时间状语为By8:30 pm on Friday，表示“到周五晚上8:30为止”，所以本句时态为过去完成时。故填had won。
【41题详解】
考查序数词。句意：截至周五晚上8点30分，中华台北队共获得58枚奖牌，其中17枚金牌，16枚银牌和25枚铜牌，在奖牌榜上排名第七。根据空后的“place on the overall medal table”可知，本空填序数词seventh，表示“第七”。故填seventh。
【42题详解】
考查定语从句。句意：周五上午，中华台北和伊朗进行了卡巴迪女子半决赛的比赛，当时气氛非常紧张。分析句子结构可知，空格处引导的是定语从句，修饰名词the women’s semifinal of kabaddi，从句缺少地点状语，故填where，引导定语从句。故填where。
【43题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意：中国台北击败伊朗，以35比24的比分获得决赛席位。分析句子结构可知，本句谓语是beat，故空格处是非谓语，故用get“获得”的不定式形式to get，作目的状语。故填to get。
【44题详解】
考查名词。句意：这一成绩超过了此前在2018年雅加达亚运会上获得的铜牌。由空前的this可知，本空用不可数名词“achievement”，作主语。故填achievement。
【45题详解】
考查冠词。句意：这一成绩超过了此前在2018年雅加达亚运会上获得的一枚铜牌。medal 意为“奖牌”，为可数名词，且空后的bronze为辅音音素开头，故本空填不定冠词a“一枚”，表示泛指。故填medal。

第二节 读后续写 (满分25分)
47. 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。
As a young boy, I was always a troublemaker and up to no good. I liked playing tricks and enjoyed treating animals in an unfriendly way, like running after cats crazily, making them scared at the sight of me. Besides, I often used a handmade catapult (弹弓) to shoot at birds on the trees.
All this did afford me indescribable pleasure but also got me unkind stares and blames from people around. My parents disapproved of my behavior and were constantly criticizing me for the tricks I played. I was even given a good beating from my father from time to time. Nevertheless, I ignored their warnings and did not correct my ways until an incident occurred.
One summer noon when I was eight, I was alone at home and just finished lunch. Feeling very hot and bored, I decided to hang around the neighborhood, holding my trusty catapult.
Soon, I came to Mr Smith’s house. His pet dog, big and strong, was tied to a post outside his house, lying in the shade lazily. Looking around, I found that no one was in sight. I decided to make good use of my catapult to play tricks on the massive dog. Picking up a few small stones from the ground, I aimed at the dog and fired them one by one. Several stones hit the poor dog and it began to bark (吠) loudly in pain and jump up and down. But I felt so fun that I didn’t stop doing so. Eventually, the dog’s anger was fueled and it barked wildly at me while struggling to break away from the rope. Not realizing anything wrong with my crazy behavior, I was just laughing happily.
Suddenly, the rope that tied the dog loosened and the big dog got free from its bonds. In no time, with a few powerful steps the dog was on me. Its sharp teeth sank into my leg. I screamed with pain and fright and fell to the ground, shouting out for help.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；

Luckily, my miserable shouts caught Mr Smith’s attention.

His words left me ashamed and I decided to make a change.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Luckily, my miserable shouts caught Mr Smith's attention. He dashed out of the house and freed the dog's teeth from my leg. Having caged the dog, Mr Smith rushed me to the clinic, where the doctor gave me an injection and dressed the wound carefully. On the way back home, I tearfully told Mr Smith the whole story. Not criticizing me, he looked me in the eye and said lovingly, “Animals are our friends that need our care and love and will treat us well if treated well".
His words left me ashamed and I decided to make a change. Instead of playing tricks on helpless animals, I did what I could to take care of them. With my father's help, I became a volunteer in our local animal shelter, feeding or walking animals. I even set aside my pocket money to contribute to charity which helps save homeless animals. Once a troublemaker, later a caregiver, I gradually won people's praise and respect I hadn't experienced before. Most importantly, never did I feel so rewarded and honored for what I did for animals.
【解析】
【导语】本文是以人物为线索展开，主要描述淘气的作者因为喜欢用他自己做的弹弓打小动物而被周围的人不满。虽然他的爸爸打了他好多次，他还是不改，甚至去挑战了史密斯家被绑着的大狗。最后大狗气急了就挣脱了绳子咬到了作者的腿，让他疼的大喊救命。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“幸运的是，我悲惨的喊叫吸引了史密斯先生的注意。”可知，第一段可描写史密斯先生过去帮助作者把狗赶跑。
②由第二段首句内容“他的话让我感到很羞愧并且决定改变。”可知，第二段可描写作者体会到自己以前的行为是错的，并且做出了改变的情况。
2.续写线索：被解救——被送医——被教育——意识到错误——做出改变

行为类
1.猛冲：dashed/rush
