记叙文篇(2019年全国IB)For Canaan Elementary’s second grade in Patchogue, N.Y.,today is speech day ,andright now it’s Chris Palaez’s turn. The 8-year-old is the joker of the class. With shining dark eyes, he seems like the of kid who would enjoy public speaking.But he’s, nervous.“I’m here to tell you today why you should … should…”Chris trips onthe“-ld,”a. pronunciation difficulty for many non-native English speakers. His teacher ,Thomas Whaley ,is next to him, whispering support.“…Vote for …me …”Except for some stumbles, Chris is doing amazingly well. When he brings his speech to a nice conclusion ,Whaley invites therest of the class to praise him.A son of immigrants, Chris stared learning English a little over three years ago. Whaley recalls(回想起)how at the beginning of the year,when called upon to read,Chris would excuse himself to go to the bathroom.Learning English as a second language can be a painful experience. What you need is a great teacher who lets you make mistakes. “It takes a lot for any student,” Whaley explains,“especially for a student who is learning English as their new lan guage,to feel confident enough to say,‘I don’t know,but I want to know.’”Whaley got the idea of this second-grade presidential campaign project when he askedthe children one day to raise their hands if they thought they could never be a president. The answer broke his heart. Whaley says the project is about more than just learning to read and speak in public. He wants these kids to learn to boast(夸耀)about themselves.“Boasting about yourself,and your best qualities,” Whaley says,“is very difficult for achild who came into the classroom not feeling confident.”24.

C记叙文篇(2019年全国IIB)“You can use me as a last resort(选择), and if nobody else volunteers,then I will do it.” This was an actual reply from a parent after I put out a request for volunteers for my kids lacrosse(长曲棍球)club.I guess that there's probably some demanding work schedule, or social anxiety around stepping up to help for an unknown sport. She may just need a little persuading. So I try again and tug at the heartstrings. I mention the single parent with four kids running the show and Italk about the dad coaching a team that his kids aren’t even on … At this point the unwilling parent speaks up,“Alright. Yes, I’ll do it.”I’m secretly relieved because I know there’s real power in sharing volunteer responsibilities among many. The unwilling parent organizes the meal schedule, sends out emails, and collects money for end-of-season gifts. Somewhere along the way, the sameparent ends up becoming an invaluable member of the team. The coach is able to focus onthe kids while the other parents are relieved to be off the hook for another season. Handingout sliced oranges to bloodthirsty kids can be as exciting as watching your own kid score a goal.Still, most of us volunteers breathe a sigh of relief when the season comes to a close.That relief is coupled with a deep understanding of why the same people keep coming backfor more: Connecting to the community(社区)as you freely give your time, money, skills,or services provides a real joy. Volunteering just feels so good.In that sense, I’m pretty sure volunteering is more of a selfish act than I’d freely like to admit. However, if others benefit in the process, and I get some reward too, does it reallymatter where my motivation lies?24.What can we infer about the parent from her reply in paragraph l?A. She knows little about the club.B. She isn't good at sports.C. She just doesn't want to volunteer.D. She's unable to meet her schedule.25.What does the underlined phrase“tug at the heartstrings”in paragraph 2 mean ?A. Encourage team work .B. Appeal to feeling.C. Promote good deeds.D. Provide advice.26. What can we learn about the parent from paragraph 3 ?A. She gets interested in lacrosse.B. She is proud of her kids.C. She’ll work for another season.D. She becomes a good helper.27. Why does the author like doing volunteer work?A. It gives her a sense of duty.B. It makes her very happy.C. It enables her to work hard.D. It brings her material rewards.KEYS:CBDB记叙文篇(2017年全国IB)I work with Volunteers for Wildlife,a rescue and education organization at Bailey Arboretum in Locust Valley.Trying to help injured,displaced or sick creatures can be heartbreaking;survival is never certain.However,when it works,it is simply beautiful.I got a rescue call from a woman in Muttontown.She had found a young owl(猫头鹰)on the ground.When I arrived,I saw a 2﹣to 3﹣week﹣old owl.It had already been placed in a carrier for safety.I examined the chick(雏鸟)and it seemed fine.If I could locate the nest,I might have been able to put it back,but no luck.My next work was to construct a nest and anchor it in a tree.The homeowner was very helpful.A wire basket was found.I put some pine branches into the basket to make this nest safe and comfortable.I placed the chick in the nest,and it quickly calmed down.Now all that was needed were the parents,but they were absent.I gave the homeowner a recording of the hunger screams of owl chicks.These advertise the presence of chicks to adults;they might also encourage our chick to start calling as well.I gave the owner as much information as possible and headed home to see what news the night might bring.A nervous night to be sure,but sometimes the spirits of nature smile on us all!The homeowner called to say that the parents had responded to the recordings.I drove over and saw the chick in the nest looking healthy and active.And it was accompanied in the nest by the greatest sight of all﹣LUNCH!The parents had done their duty and would probably continue to do so.24.What is unavoidable in the author's rescue work according ro paragraph 1?A.Efforts made in vain.B.Getting injured in his work.C.Feeling uncertain about his future.D.Creatures forced out of their homes.25.Why was the author called to Muttontown?A.To rescue a woman.B.To take care of a woman.C.To look at a baby owl.D.To cure a young owl.26.What made the chick calm down?A.A new nest.B.Some food.C.A recording.D.Its parents.27.How would the author feel about the outcome of the event?A.It's unexpected.B.It's beautiful.C.It's humorous.D.It's discouraging.KEYS:ACAB【分析】本文写了作者做为一名救助野生动物的志愿者,挽救一个猫头鹰雏鸟的故事.记叙文篇(2017年全国IIB)I first met Paul Newman in 1968,when George Roy Hill,the director of Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid,introduced us in New York City.When the studio didn't want me for the film﹣it wanted somebody as well known as Paul﹣he stood up for me.I don't know how many people would have done that;they would have listened to their agents or the studio powers.The friendship that grew out of the experience of making that film and The Sting four years later had its root in the fact that although there was an age difference,we both came from a tradition of theater and live TV.We were respectful of craft(技艺)and focused on digging into the characters we were going to play.Both of us had the qualities and virtues that are typical of American actors:humorous,aggressive,and making fun of each other﹣but always with an underlying affection.Those were also at the core (核心)of our relationship off the screen.We shared the belief that if you're fortunate enough to have success,you should put something back﹣he with his Newman's Own food and his Hole in the Wall camps for kids who are seriously ill,and me with Sundance and the institute and the festival.Paul and I didn't see each other all that regularly,but sharing that brought us together.We supported each other financially and by showing up at events.I last saw him a few months ago.He'd been in and out of the hospital.He and I both knew what the deal was,and we didn't talk about it.Ours was a relationship that didn't need a lot of words.24.Why was the studio unwilling to give the role to the author at first?CA.Paul Newman wanted it.B.The studio powers didn't like his agent.C.He wasn't famous enough.D.The director recommended someone else.25.Why did Paul and the author have a lasting friendship?DA.They were of the same age.B.They worked in the same theater.C.They were both good actors.D.They had similar characteristics.26.What does the underlined word"that"in paragraph 3 refer to?AA.Their belief.B.Their care for children.C.Their success.D.Their support for each other.27.What is the author's purpose in writing the test?BA.To show his love of films.B.To remember a friend.C.To introduce a new movie.D.To share his acting experience.KEYS:CDAB【分析】本文主要介绍了我的朋友保罗和我之间的友谊.。
