Some of them thought that “Home” was a good subject. Others liked “School”. One little boy chose “The Horse”. A little girl said she would write about “Summer”. The next day, every pupil except Henry Longfellow had written a composition.
“Well, then,” said the teacher, “you may take your notebook and go out behind the schoolhouse for half an hour. Think of something to write about, and write the word on your notebook. Then try to tell what it is, what it is like, what it is good for, and what is done with it. That is the way to write a composition.”
Henry took his notebook and went out. Just behind the schoolhouse was Mr. Finney’s barn. Quite close to the barn was a garden. And in the garden, Henry saw a turnip (萝卜).
“Well, I know what that is, ” he said to himself and he wrote the word turnip on his notebook. Then he tried to tell what it was like, what it was good for, and what was done with it.
Within half an hour, he had written a very neat composition on his notebook. He then went into the house, and waited while the teacher read it.
The teacher was surprised and pleased. He said, “Henry Longfellow, you have done very well. Today you may stand up before the school and read what you have written about the turnip.”
Many years after that, some funny little poems about Mr. Finney’s turnip were printed in a newspaper. Some people said that they were what Henry Longfellow wrote on his notebook that day at school.

Every day for a week, a strange, happy visitor would drop to play with Vanessa Prior’s pet dog Bobby. Prior thought Bobby had made a new dog friend. It seemed very friendly and got well along with Bobby. They would run after each other, play on the pool cover, gently wrestle (摔跤) or nap side by side.
At first she thought it was a wild dog. But when she posted a photo of the two playing on her Facebook, a pet rescue centre called her. The group told her the Atlanta Wolf Project had been trying to catch the wolf for months, but they failed. Prior gave them new hope.
Because of the wolfs friendship with her pet dog, it was likely to come back to her backyard. Researchers hoped Prior could help them. When they put some traps (陷阱) in the back of her yard, Prior got a very complicated (复杂的) feeling. She couldn’t describe what it was. The wolf would be in a safe place, but she would do something that harmed Bobby’s feelings.
Researchers told Prior that they would take the rare, black wolf to the Yellow River Wildlife Sanctuary where it would live with another wolf. They didn’t think it a satisfying situation for a wild animal like a wolf to have a connection with humans’ life. They need to keep a natural awareness to humans and pets and keep to themselves.
Wolf experts added they would look into the genetics of the animal to try to learn why it liked to get close to people and tried to play with their pets. Some experts believe it could have a history with well-meaning humans. Prior had not expected that she and Bobby should meet such a special and lovely wolf. They just hoped the dear friend all the best.
8. What happened to Vanessa Prior according to the first two paragraphs
A. She didn’t like her dog’s new friend.
B. She was awarded for her helpful picture.
C. She realised her dog made friends with a wolf.
D. She called the pet rescue centre to catch the wolf.
9. How did Prior feel when some traps were set
A She was afraid to lose Bobby.
B. She regretted helping the researchers.
C. She was worried about the wolf’s future.
D. She had bittersweet feelings about the wolf.
10. What can be inferred about the black wolf from the last two paragraphs
A. It is a kind and sociable animal.
B. It was once kept as a human pet.
C. It will be sent to the wild to live with other animals.
D. It has a great awareness of keeping away from humans.
11. Where can the passage most probably appear

C. In a medical report D. In a scientific research.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. A 11. A

(但当她在Facebook上发布了一张两个动物玩耍的照片时，一家宠物救援中心给她打电话。该组织告诉她，亚特兰大狼计划几个月来一直试图抓住这只狼，但他们失败了。)”可知，她意识到她的狗和狼交了朋友。故选C项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“When they put some traps (陷阱) in the back of her yard, Prior got a very complicated (复杂的) feeling. She couldn’t describe what it was. The wolf would be in a safe place, but she would do something that harmed Bobby’s feelings. (当他们在她的后院放了一些陷阱时，Prior有一种非常复杂的感觉。她说不出那是什么。狼会在一个安全的地方，但她会做一些伤害Bobby感情的事情。)”可知，Prior对狼有一种苦乐参半的感觉。故选D项。

【11题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文，尤其根据倒数第二段中“They need to keep a natural awareness to humans and pets and keep to themselves. (它们需要对人类和宠物保持一种自然的意识，并保持自己的独立。)”可知，本文主要讲述了一只黑狼和一个宠物狗交上了朋友，被动物专家发现后，把黑狼送归自然的故事，由此推知，文章最可能出现在在自然杂志上。故选A项。

Student newspapers across the US are facing a dark reality. As they are free to read, they are making less money than ever, meaning that such newspapers are finding it hard to survive.
Most college papers have reduced their print editions (版本). Last year, the Daily Tar Heel printed a paper four days a week. This year, it prints a paper every three days. And while it used to produce around 22,000 newspapers each time, it only makes around: 10,000 now, said Erica Perel, general manager.
Increasingly, student journalists have turned their focus to digital versions of their newspapers, and the new ways that social media allows them to tell stories. They’ve adapted their skills to mirror what’s going on in the professional journalism world.
“I think we’re adapting very well…in moving away from that print edition. But it’s challenging.” said Jonathan Carter, a student at North Carolina State University. So what should student newspapers do LoMonte said the best solution would be for universities to financially (财经的) support student journalism. University leaders like to talk about producing responsible students, he said, and journalism is a part of that.
In the meantime, campus newspapers are figuring out their financial models as they go along. Bruce dePyssler, adviser to North Carolina Central University’s Campus Echo Newspaper, said his students post one story a day online. The best stories are put together for a once-a-semester print edition.
And even if student journalists don’t go into media jobs, Perel said, “They’ve still had a great education.” “The number one thing that we teach is critical thinking (批判思考) and how to be a lifelong learner, ” she said, “The ones who are living through this transition (过渡) are the ones that are going to be a lot stronger for it in the end.”
12. What do most college newspapers do to face the dark reality
A. Improve printing quality. B. Reduce print editions.
C. Lower advertising fees. D. Increase paper price.
13. What does LoMonte suggest student newspapers do to survive
A. Ask colleges for money. B. Continue with paper versions.
C. Publish more digital editions. D. Create their own financial models.
14. Who thinks campus newspapers are trying a new financial model
A. Jonathan Carter. B. LoMonte.
C. Bruce dePyssler. D. Perel.
15. What’s the article mainly about
A. The proud history of the Daily Tar Heel. B. Student newspapers are adapting well.
C. School newspapers are under pressure. D. How to refresh traditional newspapers.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. C 15. C

推理判断题。由文章第四段中“LoMonte said the best solution would be for universities to financially support student journalism. (LoMonte说，最好的解决办法是让大学在经济上支持学生新闻工作)”可知，LoMonte认为大学报纸存活下去的最好办法是得到学校的经济支持，从而推知，他建议大学报纸通过向大学要钱，得以继续生存。故选A项。

【16题详解】
根据前文“It is natural that young people are often uncomfortable when they are with their parents. (很自然，年轻人和父母在一起时常常感到不舒服。)”可知，此处强调年轻人和父母在一起时常常感到不舒服，后文应该指出其中原因。G选项“They say that their parents don’t understand them.(他们说他们的父母不理解他们)”承接前文，指出年轻人和父母在一起时常常感到不舒服原因在于年轻人认为父母不理解他们，符合语境。故选G。

【19题详解】

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.
When coming to this city for high school, I moved into the new house with my parents. We were very grateful to the owner for renting us this house at a cheap price. The house was really comfortable to live in. It was warm inside and full of life outside.
A tree in the front yard attracted my attention, and all I could confirm was that it was a fruit tree. My father thought it was a fig(无花果) tree, and sure enough, as the months went by, the tree grew huge leaves and finally bore the fruit—figs, the size of my fist. How wonderful they were! I took many pictures of the fig tree. And then we wondered how to deal with the figs. My mother thought for a while and said, “Why not try making fig jam ” I responded quickly, “That’s a good idea!”
Jack, one of our neighbors, just visited us and asked if he could pick some figs from our tree. Certainly, we encouraged him to take as many as he liked. In fact, Jack was extremely polite and friendly to us. He introduced himself at the first sight of us. He always waved to me as he came home or as he left for work.
When I picked the figs with him, he told me about how he had been living in the house next door for close to twenty years. He said, “Bruce, the owner of the house you live in now, used to be my best friend. And we had planted this very fig tree a few years before he went to the nursing home.” I was amazed to know that we actually enjoyed the fruit of his work. He told me that he was so impressed by the quality of the fruit this year. I found a fruit box for him to put the figs in. Both of us enjoyed the pleasure of sharing.
When Jack set out for his home, I turned to my parents and advised doing something in return for Jack and Bruce’s kindness and friendliness.

【答案】参考范文:
Finally, we decided to invite Jack and his family to dinner that night. I called him and talked about it, and he accepted the invitation with pleasure. After school, I went to the supermarket to help my parents buy lots of food materials. And I specially bought a toy for Jack’s little baby. My mother prepared a bottle of fig jam for dinner. We cooked a big meal together at home. Jack’ family arrived on time. We shared the delicious food happily. After dinner, we talked about Bruce. We all thought it was him who planted this fig tree that brought us together. So we were determined to thank him.
The next day, our family and Jack visited Bruce in the nursing home. When Bruce saw us, he jumped with joy like a child. My mother reminded me and said, “Dear, give Bruce a surprise.” I pulled out my phone and showed him the pictures of the fig tree. I also handed a basket of sweet figs to him. He was particularly pleased to see the fig tree. He thanked me for taking good care of it. I swore that I would always treasure it. And all of us promised to see him more often. We had such a close relationship with him, like a family.

“Children, tomorrow I shall expect all of you to write compositions,” said a teacher of Love Lane School. “Then, on Friday those who have done the best may stand up and read their compositions to the school.” Some of the children were pleased, and some were not. “What shall we write about ” they asked.
Some of them thought that “Home” was a good subject. Others liked “School”. One little boy chose “The Horse”. A little girl said she would write about “Summer”. The next day, every pupil except Henry Longfellow had written a composition.
“Well, then,” said the teacher, “you may take your notebook and go out behind the schoolhouse for half an hour. Think of something to write about, and write the word on your notebook. Then try to tell what it is, what it is like, what it is good for, and what is done with it. That is the way to write a composition.”
Henry took his notebook and went out. Just behind the schoolhouse was Mr. Finney’s barn. Quite close to the barn was a garden. And in the garden, Henry saw a turnip (萝卜).
“Well, I know what that is, ” he said to himself and he wrote the word turnip on his notebook. Then he tried to tell what it was like, what it was good for, and what was done with it.
Within half an hour, he had written a very neat composition on his notebook. He then went into the house, and waited while the teacher read it.
The teacher was surprised and pleased. He said, “Henry Longfellow, you have done very well. Today you may stand up before the school and read what you have written about the turnip.”
Many years after that, some funny little poems about Mr. Finney’s turnip were printed in a newspaper. Some people said that they were what Henry Longfellow wrote on his notebook that day at school.
4. Some students were not pleased probably because__________.
A. the teacher would not read their compositions
B. they did worse than other students at school

Every day for a week, a strange, happy visitor would drop to play with Vanessa Prior’s pet dog Bobby. Prior thought Bobby had made a new dog friend. It seemed very friendly and got well along with Bobby. They would run after each other, play on the pool cover, gently wrestle (摔跤) or nap side by side.
At first she thought it was a wild dog. But when she posted a photo of the two playing on her Facebook, a pet rescue centre called her. The group told her the Atlanta Wolf Project had been trying to catch the wolf for months, but they failed. Prior gave them new hope.
Because of the wolfs friendship with her pet dog, it was likely to come back to her backyard. Researchers hoped Prior could help them. When they put some traps (陷阱) in the back of her yard, Prior got a very complicated (复杂的) feeling. She couldn’t describe what it was. The wolf would be in a safe place, but she would do something that harmed Bobby’s feelings.
Researchers told Prior that they would take the rare, black wolf to the Yellow River Wildlife Sanctuary where it would live with another wolf. They didn’t think it a satisfying situation for a wild animal like a wolf to have a connection with humans’ life. They need to keep a natural awareness to humans and pets and keep to themselves.
Wolf experts added they would look into the genetics of the animal to try to learn why it liked to get close to people and tried to play with their pets. Some experts believe it could have a history with well-meaning humans. Prior had not expected that she and Bobby should meet such a special and lovely wolf. They just hoped the dear friend all the best.
8. What happened to Vanessa Prior according to the first two paragraphs
A. She didn’t like her dog’s new friend.
B. She was awarded for her helpful picture.
C. She realised her dog made friends with a wolf.
D. She called the pet rescue centre to catch the wolf.
9. How did Prior feel when some traps were set
A. She was afraid to lose Bobby.
B. She regretted helping the researchers.
C. She was worried about the wolf’s future.
D. She had bittersweet feelings about the wolf.
10. What can be inferred about the black wolf from the last two paragraphs
A. It is a kind and sociable animal.
B. It was once kept as a human pet.
C. It will be sent to the wild to live with other animals.
D It has a great awareness of keeping away from humans.
11. Where can the passage most probably appear
A. In a nature magazine. B. In a travel guide.
C. In a medical report D. In a scientific research.
D
Student newspapers across the US are facing a dark reality. As they are free to read, they are making less money than ever, meaning that such newspapers are finding it hard to survive.
Most college papers have reduced their print editions (版本). Last year, the Daily Tar Heel printed a paper four days a week. This year, it prints a paper every three days. And while it used to produce around 22,000 newspapers each time, it only makes around: 10,000 now, said Erica Perel, general manager.
Increasingly, student journalists have turned their focus to digital versions of their newspapers, and the new ways that social media allows them to tell stories. They’ve adapted their skills to mirror what’s going on in the professional journalism world.
“I think we’re adapting very well…in moving away from that print edition. But it’s challenging.” said Jonathan Carter, a student at North Carolina State University. So what should student newspapers do LoMonte said the best solution would be for universities to financially (财经的) support student journalism. University leaders like to talk about producing responsible students, he said, and journalism is a part of that.
In the meantime, campus newspapers are figuring out their financial models as they go along. Bruce dePyssler, adviser to North Carolina Central University’s Campus Echo Newspaper, said his students post one story a day online. The best stories are put together for a once-a-semester print edition.
And even if student journalists don’t go into media jobs, Perel said, “They’ve still had a great education.” “The number one thing that we teach is critical thinking (批判思考) and how to be a lifelong learner, ” she said, “The ones who are living through this transition (过渡) are the ones that are going to be a lot stronger for it in the end.”
12. What do most college newspapers do to face the dark reality
A. Improve printing quality. B. Reduce print editions.
C. Lower advertising fees. D. Increase paper price.
13. What does LoMonte suggest student newspapers do to survive
A. Ask colleges for money. B. Continue with paper versions.
C. Publish more digital editions. D. Create their own financial models.
14. Who thinks campus newspapers are trying a new financial model
A. Jonathan Carter. B. LoMonte.
C. Bruce dePyssler. D. Perel.
15. What’s the article mainly about
A. The proud history of the Daily Tar Heel. B. Student newspapers are adapting well.
C. School newspapers are under pressure. D. How to refresh traditional newspapers.

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.
When coming to this city for high school, I moved into the new house with my parents. We were very grateful to the owner for renting us this house at a cheap price. The house was really comfortable to live in. It was warm inside and full of life outside.
A tree in the front yard attracted my attention, and all I could confirm was that it was a fruit tree. My father thought it was a fig(无花果) tree, and sure enough, as the months went by, the tree grew huge leaves and finally bore the fruit—figs, the size of my fist. How wonderful they were! I took many pictures of the fig tree. And then we wondered how to deal with the figs. My mother thought for a while and said, “Why not try making fig jam ” I responded quickly, “That’s a good idea!”
Jack, one of our neighbors, just visited us and asked if he could pick some figs from our tree. Certainly, we encouraged him to take as many as he liked. In fact, Jack was extremely polite and friendly to us. He introduced himself at the first sight of us. He always waved to me as he came home or as he left for work.
When I picked the figs with him, he told me about how he had been living in the house next door for close to twenty years. He said, “Bruce, the owner of the house you live in now, used to be my best friend. And we had planted this very fig tree a few years before he went to the nursing home.” I was amazed to know that we actually enjoyed the fruit of his work. He told me that he was so impressed by the quality of the fruit this year. I found a fruit box for him to put the figs in. Both of us enjoyed the pleasure of sharing.
When Jack set out for his home, I turned to my parents and advised doing something in return for Jack and Bruce’s kindness and friendliness.
