The most delicious memories seem to happen during the holidays. And like a squirrel preparing for winter, I put them away to enjoy slowly during the long winter months. Sometimes, I enjoy them for years.

Among them are sweetest recollections: my little girls at the church play and the moment they got their first angel wings; a pink dolly stroller(手推車) wheeled into the bedroom with a tiny voice declaring, 'Look what Santa Claus brought me! '; or New Year's snowmen wearing bright scarves borrowed from a grandma's fragrant drawer.

But there is one memory that is a little bittersweet -- sort of like 80% dark chocolate, but still good for you.

This story brings to mind a colorful candy dish and a very little boy. The occasion was somewhere between Christmas and New Year's when a few candies in a dish remained behind, a bright spot in dull winter gray.

Wrapped in December's chill, my then 3-year old grandson, Justin, and I had dashed from the warmth of my parked car into the building where I planned to take care of a few work-related tasks.

A smiling secretary greeted us as we brushed the snowflakes and rubbed our hands to chase the cold. Then with my grandchild close to my side, I busied myself, finishing the items of business that had brought us there. But while his hand remained in mine, his eyes fell on the candy dish sitting nearby.

As we turned to leave, the thoughtful and very observant woman behind the desk asked the question all children wait to hear.

'Honey, ' the kindly woman said, peering over her glasses at Justin. 'Would you like a candy bar? ' she asked, her hand pushing the dish close for an easier reach.

The boy looked up questioningly, his eyes meeting mine, permission hanging in the air. A slight nod from me and then a hurried beeline to the candy dish followed. One candy bar was already in his hand.

Para 1: 'Justin! ' I said from the doorway.

【答案】'Justin!' I said from the doorway. By this time his pudgy hands had grabbed one -- and only one -- and he made his way back to me. My voice was somewhat serious as I realized manners had been forgotten. 'What do you say? ' Hearing this, the little boy turned on his heel, promptly returning to the candy dish. 'Get Grandma one, too! ' I laughed. The secretary laughed. And even little Justin innocently giggled at the fun we were having.

In the humor of the moment, I felt something hard to swallow. There was a truth that lingered long after the strawberry candy taste had disappeared. What example had I set for this little one while often in my care? Was he learning more about 'getting' and less about gratitude -- that heartfelt 'thank you'? In the years since, I've always loved to remember that moment. But one gift I hope we all leave with our children is the importance of a grateful heart. Really, what could be sweeter?

【解析】

這是一篇讀后續(xù)寫。文章主要講述了作者和孫子的一次經(jīng)歷帶給她苦中帶樂的回憶。

續(xù)寫分為兩段。第一段的開頭是:“Justin!”我在走廊上說。這時(shí)他的手上抓著一顆糖,然后朝我走過來。我的聲音有點(diǎn)嚴(yán)肅,我意識(shí)到自己當(dāng)時(shí)失態(tài)了。“你說什么?”。聽到這話,小男孩轉(zhuǎn)過身去,立刻跑到糖果盤那里!敖o奶奶也拿一顆!蔽倚α。秘書也笑了。小Justin也咯咯的笑了。第二段的開頭是:在這個(gè)幽默時(shí)刻,我覺得有些東西難以下咽。在草莓味糖果的味道消失之后,有一個(gè)想法始種縈繞在我心頭。我給小家伙樹立了什么榜樣?他學(xué)到了更多關(guān)于得到,更少關(guān)于感激的東西嗎(那種發(fā)自內(nèi)心的感激)?從那以后,我一直記得那一刻。我總是希望讓孩子學(xué)會(huì)真正的感恩。沒有什么比這更好了。

續(xù)寫時(shí)應(yīng)注意故事情節(jié)要符合邏輯,基礎(chǔ)時(shí)態(tài)為一般過去時(shí)。

【題目】 Only a few people in Toronto have the luck to live within walking distance from their workplace. For the rest of us, commuting(乘車上下班) is a rather unpleasant daily necessity.

So how do you avoid a traffic jam in Toronto? You can do it in the old way and listen to one of the radio stations that give regular updates about the traffic situation in Toronto's streets. Seeing the big picture of Toronto's traffic and knowing when and where heavy traffic occurs is a must. From my own experience, there are situations where a quick decision can help you make it in time for an event or a meeting. That's why we prepared three short videos showing the overall traffic situation in Toronto from dawn to night. You can click them and watch.

With the help of “Google Maps”, where you can watch the live traffic density all over the world and average traffic data based on past conditions, we were able to provide you with traffic maps for a typical(平常的) Friday.

Friday traffic in Toronto is quite fast in the early morning, with only a few hot spots showing up at the major junctions(交叉點(diǎn)) at 700 a. m. The morning traffic jam starts light at 730 and the traffic gradually slows down to reach a breaking point at 830. The roads are quite free afterwards, only Allen Road is likely to be jammed around lunchtime from 1130 a. m. to 1200 noon. It comes as no surprise that Friday afternoon brings heavy traffic as early as 100 p. m., mainly on the Don Valley Parkway. You won't have a good time getting away from the city from 400 p. m. to 630 p. m., as there is a good chance to get caught in a traffic jam. The traffic in Toronto is quite heavy on a Friday night. I hope you will have a nice Friday night in the city and a safe journey home this Friday!

1By saying “commuting is a rather unpleasant daily necessity”, the writer refers to the fact that________.

A.buses are usually very crowded

2According to Paragraph 2, when you are in a traffic jam,you should________.

A.do nothing but to wait patiently

B.report your situation to a radio station

C.relax and enjoy some good radio programs

D.make a quick decision and find another way to go

3What is the last paragraph mainly about?

A.What the traffic in Toronto is like for a typical Friday.

B.How to avoid heavy traffic on Friday.

C.Why the traffic is terrible on Friday.

D.What “Google Maps” can do for us.

4In Toronto, on Friday you are most likely to suffer heavy traffic________.

A.from 630 a. m. to 700 a. m.

B.from 830 a. m. to 930 a. m.

C.from 1030 a. m. to 1100 a. m.

【題目】 “Cash is king” is an age-old saying. 1 When in Berlin, do not count on getting around easily with just a credit card. “Cash only” signs hang on front doors of shops and restaurants across the city.

2 After all, Germany is Europe’s leading economy and famous technological know-how. But, even while some of its neighbors in Europe and elsewhere are quickly swapping physical money for new pay technologies, many Germans prefer their euro bills. Cash is quick and easy to use, they argue. It provides a clear picture of personal spending, keeps transactions (交易) more private and is widely accepted in the country.

A study by the country’s central bank said Germans carried an average of 107 euros in their wallet. 3 Three-quarters of Americans in a U.S. bank survey said they carried less than $50, and one-quarter said they kept $10 or less in their wallet.

4 In 2008, for the first time, Germans used plastics for payments more than bills. According to a report, in Cologne, 48.6% of sales took place with a debit or a credit card, compared with 48.3% in cash.

Still, Germany has one of the highest rates of cash use in the European Union. The most important reasons for the close relationship of Germans to cash are their needs for protection of personal data, security and confidentiality (保密) of payments. 5 But the average German’s need for security will be sure to slow the process.

A. This may be surprising to some.

B. It’s far more than what Americans carry.

C. Change may happen in future generations.

D. Germany is not the only country that prefers cash.

E. For much of Germany, however, the phrase is still up to date.

F. It doesn’t matter if you’ve never heard of the saying.

G. That’s not to say that Germans rule out other modern payment methods.
