Lots of times when we walked with Paul, other kids came over and asked us why h e was in his chair and why he couldn’t s 81. They thought he was different because he had his own school bus and had to go to a special school. But that's not really the reason. Paul was different for the things just our family knew about-only we knew the s 82 that made him special.Paul helped me hear small sounds. Every time I was with him, I'd have to beg q83 to hear the flying birds and the talking trees he heard.Paul helped me exercise. When we went for a walk, we'd often go uphill. When I pushed his chair all the way to the woods at the t 84 , I was really getting my exercise!Paul h 85 ever complained. He went along with whatever the rest of us wanted to do. One time when he had a fever, he got uncomfortable, but he never shouted or fought or asked me to switch the TV channel.Sometimes Paul let me put things in his hand. We played a kind of guessing game.I put different toys there for him to f 86 . He was always surprised when I let him hold something new.Paul was my friend. He couldn't talk to me like most of my friends, and he couldn't run outside to play. But he was there for all the peaceful times, and he had the best smile in the world.I was l87 to grow up with him as his sister. He helped me to realize that there isa good side to every situation, if we simply make the choice to find it.2018 "Olyvia, love is simple. You don t have to do much to make someone happy.

My good friend Kaylee told me about her t_____81 to a small town called Gary, and how it was a life-changing experience. I made up my mind to go there myself.When I told my parents about the decision, they didn’t a_____ 82 at first. They said I didn’t know much about the place. They were worried that it was not s_____83 for me to go there. Thankfully, after I explained my plan to them in detail, they said yes.When our group arrived in Gary, I noticed how different the town was from where I lived. There were few stores or restaurants in the town; most had closed. So you would be very l_______84 if you could find a place to buy food or drinks. Houses were built on small hills. Many of them had broken doors or windows. My job was to help the local people to r_______ 85 houses. The work days were long and hot, but it was really good to see the houses taking on a new look day by day.The children there were also different. They seemed to enjoy every moment in life though they were poor. The smallest things would make these kids happy. I couldn’t find words to describe their j_____86 when they received an ice-cream, a ball or even a kiss. The community was like a big family. Everyone knew each other and was there when someone needed help.I am so glad that I had this unforgettable experience. I truly learned the m____ 87 of what my mother said. You don t need to do much to make a difference to others' lives.2017 Fill in the blanks with proper words(在短文的空格内填入适当的词，使其内容通顺. 每空格限填一词，首字母已给)A Delicious MealTony is Chinese American.

回答问题也是主观题之一。

一般来说，6道题中，前5道都是细节题，只要注意两点：①没有字数限制的情况下尽量回答完整。

②由Why引导的问题一定要由Because回答。

③注意提问的时态，比如is,was,did等。

而最后一题，通常是开放性试题，这种题要注意，只要不是特别离谱的回答一般都对，就是不能只写一点答案，后面要加一句句子，比如说原因之类的，不过尽量回答时别超过横线的长度考写作4分文采分，主要有两种得分方式：谚语俗语+复杂句型。

谚语俗语不用多说，写对用对就能得分比较简单。

至于复杂句型要求比较高，不是所有从句都可以，比如状语从句、宾语从句运用是最基本的。

文采分加分句型主要有以下几个：定语从句（限定、非限定）、强调句型、同位语从句、倒装句...In the Renaissance Period(文艺复兴时期)（1500-1650），people became interested in higher education.
