Madame Marie Curie is famous for having won two Nobel Prizes—in Physics in 1903 and again in 1911 in Chemistry, but many other women have also been awarded the prize. Here are their stories.
Sigrid Undset
Sigrid Undset is one of the three Norwegian authors (and so far the most recent one) to have received the Nobel Prize in Literature. Undset received the prize in 1928, for her powerful description of life during the Middle Ages in Scandinavia. In her lifetime, she wrote two huge novels set against the background of Norway in the 13th century, the 3-volume Kristin Lavransdatter, and the 4-volume Olav AudunssΦnn.
Gerty Theresa Cori
Gerty and her husband, Carl Cori, moved to the United States in 1922, where the two medical doctors worked together (against the advice of their colleagues) at the Roswell Park Cancer Institute in New York, hoping to find the cure for diabetes(糖尿病). In 1947, Gerty, Carl and the Argentine doctor Bernardo were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, making Gerty the first woman to hold the honor.
Maria Goeppert-Mayer
Born in 1906 in Germany, Maria Goeppert-Mayer moved to the US with her husband Joseph Edward Mayer, a chemist, in 1930. While in the US, Goeppert-Mayer developed the nuclear shell model, for which she shared the 1963 Nobel Prize in Physics with Johannes Hans Daniel Jensen and Eugene Paul Wigner. She was the first woman to receive the award in 60 years.
Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin OM
Dorothy showed a love for science as a child, and at age 18, she began studying chemistry at a women-only Oxford college. She earned her PhD at the University of Cambridge, where she first took an interest in X-ray crystallography and began studying the structure of proteins. In 1934, she moved back to Oxford, where she was appointed the university’s first research chemistry fellow. Her work on mapping vitamin B12 earned her the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1964.

Elephant Transit Home
In both Africa and Asia elephants are being threatened by changes in their natural habitats. People are moving into the elephants’ habitats and endangering their survival. In the country of Sri Lanka, there is one place where elephants are not only protected but also respected. It is called the Elephant Transit Home (ETH).
Set up in 1995, the ETH aims to protect and nurture baby elephants that are found injured or living without their mothers in the wild. Every year about 30 baby elephants in Sri Lanka need help. As many as possible are brought to the ETH. There they are given food, shelter, and medical care. Most importantly, they are given the chance to be with other elephants and become part of an elephant herd (象群).
A day at the ETH begins early in the morning when the baby elephants are given their first feeding of milk. During the day, each baby will drink an average of 13 gallons of milk. Older elephants are fed mostly coconut leaves and other native plants. Then the elephants are allowed to walk around, eating the grass and forming a herd. The cost of caring for the baby elephants is high. The ETH spends about ＄125,000 each year on powdered milk for the baby elephants.
At the ETH, workers try to reduce human connection with the elephants. They also try to increase the bonds(联系) between the elephants. It usually takes three years for a baby elephant to be set free into its natural habitat. The elephants are sent back to the wild together with other orphans with whom they have bonded. This program helps them return to the wild as members of a herd that will communicate with each other and take care of each other.
The ETH is considered one of the best animal protection sites in the world. The elephants there are not only cared for, but also treated with respect. Most importantly, they will go back to live in the wild, where they belong.
4.What does the underlined word “nurture” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Set free. B.Care for. C.Focus on. D.Relate to.
5.What do we know about the ETH?
A.It receives about ＄125,000 each year.

6.The workers reduce human connection with the elephants to .
A.train them to stay away from hunters

D.help them make it in the wild as a herd
7.What’s the purpose of the passage?

B.To explain the threat baby elephants face.
C.To introduce an animal protection project.
D.To persuade the readers to protect elephants.
C
Jack Rummler was in the hospital, but he kept emailing his journalism teacher and classmates at Boone High School in the US. He wanted to stay on top of his newspaper work and didn’t want anyone else to be stuck with the tasks he’d taken on.
“He would be in the hospital writing stories,” said Renee Burke, his teacher at the time. “He wouldn’t stop worrying about us.”
Rummler, 18, said he did this because he enjoyed high school journalism so much. “Every little aspect of it.”
“He is a compassionate(有同情心的) student,” Burke said, “who always seems to be thinking about others, even when he faces his own challenges.”
Born with spina bifida (脊柱裂), he walks with a limp (跛行) and has had about 12 surgeries. Two years ago, medical problems kept him out of school for weeks.
“Yet, he never wanted to be treated differently,” Burke said, “nor did he avoid doing anything that might be physically challenging for him, such as filming football games.” During his high school life, he worked his way up from the staff member to the editor-in-chief of the Boone paper.
And last month, he won the “student journalist of the year” award from the Florida Scholastic Press Association.
The contest required student journalists to put together examples of their work and their ability to be “backpack journalists” who could take on many types of assignments. Rummler’s examples included stories and opinion pieces, a graphic he’d designed about school construction, and a TV commercial (广告) for the paper’s online site.
“I think one of the things that journalism taught me is to always be aware of what’s going on in the world,” he said.
His school paper publishes in print four times a year, as well as online. The last issue he worked on was about graduation, showcasing the accomplishments of top students and athletes, among the soon-to-be graduates.
In August, Rummler will start at the University of Florida, where he plans to study environmental sustainability and communications.
“Whatever he does, he’s going to be great at it,” said Bridgette Norris, the current journalism teacher at Boone, who taught him this past school year.
8.Which of the following words can best describe Rummler?
A.Hardworking and modest.
B.Optimistic and creative.
C.Humorous and talented.
D.Strong-minded and considerate.
9.What can we learn about Rummler?
A.He has had more than 20 surgeries.
B.He is willing to accept difficult tasks.
C.He has never missed school because of his disease.
D.He will soon be the editor-in-chief of the Boone paper.
10.What won Rummler the “student journalist of the year” award?
A.His willingness to accept challenges.
B.His contribution to his high school paper.
C.His ability to create a variety of news works.
D.His inspiring reports about graduation.
11.How does Norris feel about Rummler’s life in college?
A.Confident. B.Doubtful. C.Surprised. D.Worried.
D
The endangered pandas in the Qinling Mountains might face a new threat: the loss of their food—bamboo, which makes up 99% of their meals.
Adult pandas spend most part of the day eating bamboo and have to take in at least 40 pounds a day to stay healthy. However, a new study published in Nature Climate Change warned that they may soon find their food gone because most of the bamboo in the Qinling Mountains might disappear by the end of the century as a result of rising temperature worldwide.
A team made up of researchers from Michigan State University and the Chinese Academy of Sciences has studied the effects of climate change on the bamboo in the Qinling Mountains. They have found that bamboo is very sensitive to climate change. “80% to 100% of the bamboo would be gone if the average temperature increases 3.5 degrees worldwide by the end of the century,” said Liu Jianguo, one of the report’s authors.
He added, “This is how much the temperature would rise by 2100 even if all countries will keep their promises in The Paris Agreement. But you know what is happening around the world.”
In recent years, China has been trying its best to protect the endangered pandas by setting up more and bigger nature reserves.
“But it is far from being enough and the endangered pandas need cooperation from the rest of the world, because their future is not just in the hands of the Chinese, ”said Shirley Martin from the WWF but not a member of the team.
There are about 260 pandas in the Qinling Mountains. That is about 13% of the population of China’s wild pandas. In addition, about 375 are living in research centers and zoos in China.
12.What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A.The Qinling Mountains can provide enough bamboo for the pandas.
B.Pandas in the Qinling Mountains are only threatened by the loss of food.
C.Lots of the bamboo in the Qinling Mountains will probably disappear.
D.Pandas have already eaten 99% of the bamboo in the Qinling Mountains.
13.What does Liu Jianguo mean?
A.China needs more help from the WWF.
B.It is difficult to control the temperature rise within 3.5 degrees.
C.Bamboo is sensitive to changes in temperature.
D.China is making great efforts to protect the pandas.
14.How many wild pandas are there in China?
A.About 260. B.About 635.
C.About 2,635. D.About 2,000.
15.Which can be the best title for the text?
A.The Disappearance of Bamboo
B.Necessity to Change Pandas’ Food
C.A New Threat Faced by the Pandas
D.Efforts Made to Save Pandas

Leonardo da Vinci and Nature
In the modern world, art and science are two very separate activities, but in Leonardo’s time they were closely connected. Science meant mathematics and medical studies. 16 Mathematics included practical work like surveying land for making maps as well as measuring the movements of the stars in the sky. An artist might need to measure the different parts of the body. He could also use mathematics to place things in relationship to each other in a drawing or painting so the scene looked correct. 17
Mathematics was also connected to music because musical sounds have a fixed relationship with each other that can be described in numbers. 18 More than this, though, Leonardo believed that numbers were a part of all things in the world including music, and he said that “without them nothing can be done”.
“Nature has kindly given us things everywhere to copy,” wrote Leonardo. In all his activities, Leonardo was trying to discover the rules that control nature. In his search for those rules, he looked very carefully at a lot of examples and details. Actual experience was more important to him than the opinion, and he worked from facts to ideas. 19 His purpose was to examine the world so he could copy it in beautiful paintings and sculptures. He also wanted to learn from the clever solutions of nature.
20 His quick little sketches (素描), often done while wandering outside, helped him to catch a movement or a shape. More careful drawings would be done at a desk with a pen and a ruler. In July 2001, a small drawing by Leonardo was sold for $12 million. It was the most expensive drawing in the world.
A.Mathematicians and doctors worked to discover the unknown.
B.Leonardo’s ideas were vastly ahead of his time.
C.How could these be connected with art?
D.Leonardo was always drawing.
E.Above all, Leonardo wanted to understand how and why things worked.
F.Leonardo himself was a very good musician and liked to play an instrument and sing.
G.You will see a good example of such positioning in the painting of The Last Supper.

Tom was working in a big company. He had been on the road visiting people for more than a month without going home. He couldn’t wait to get back to see his wife and children. It was coming up on Mother’s Day, and he usually tried to make it “back home”, but this year he was just too busy and too tired. The day when he was driving in a small town, he saw a flower shop. He said to himself, “I know what I will do. I’ll send my mother some roses.”
He stopped and went into the flower shop and saw a young man talking to the girl in it. “How many roses can I get for five dollars, Ms.?” the boy asked. The girl was trying to explain that roses were expensive. Maybe the young man would be happy with something else.
“No. I have to have roses,” he said.“My mom was badly sick last year and I didn’t get to spend much time with her. I want to get her something special. It has to be red roses, because those are her favorite.” He was stubborn.
The girl in the shop looked up at Tom and was just shaking her head. Something inside Tom was touched by the boy’s voice. He wanted to get those roses so badly. Tom had been blessed with his business, and he looked at the girl and silently said that he would pay for the boy’s roses.
The girl looked at the young man and said, “OK, I will give you a dozen red roses for your dollars.” The young man almost jumped into the air. He took the flowers and ran out of the store. It was worth more than fifty dollars just to see that kind of excitement.
Tom ordered his own flowers and asked the girl to have them delivered (递送) to his mother. After that, with relief (松了一口气) he drove down the road. Not long after his driving, he saw the boy walking to a graveyard (墓地).

第二节
One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
Tom stopped his car and followed the young man. The young man went up to a small monument and knelt down. He carefully put the flowers before it and began to sob, “Dear Mom, I love you. But how I regret that I didn’t tell it to you when you were with me. I knew you loved roses, but why didn’t I send the flowers to you when I could still see you and talk with you? Now, you have gone to another world. How I regret that I didn’t tell you I love you so much!”
Paragraph 2:
Tom went into the car in tears. His mother’s home wasn’t far from here, but he hadn’t seen her for so long a time. He didn’t have a talk with her or say how much he loved her for so long a time. He turned the car and drove towards the flower shop quickly. When he arrived, he asked the girl to give back the flowers because he wanted to send them personally to his mom.

Madame Marie Curie is famous for having won two Nobel Prizes—in Physics in 1903 and again in 1911 in Chemistry, but many other women have also been awarded the prize. Here are their stories.
Sigrid Undset
Sigrid Undset is one of the three Norwegian authors (and so far the most recent one) to have received the Nobel Prize in Literature. Undset received the prize in 1928, for her powerful description of life during the Middle Ages in Scandinavia. In her lifetime, she wrote two huge novels set against the background of Norway in the 13th century, the 3-volume Kristin Lavransdatter, and the 4-volume Olav AudunssΦnn.
Gerty Theresa Cori
Gerty and her husband, Carl Cori, moved to the United States in 1922, where the two medical doctors worked together (against the advice of their colleagues) at the Roswell Park Cancer Institute in New York, hoping to find the cure for diabetes(糖尿病). In 1947, Gerty, Carl and the Argentine doctor Bernardo were awarded the Nobel Prize in Physiology or Medicine, making Gerty the first woman to hold the honor.
Maria Goeppert-Mayer
Born in 1906 in Germany, Maria Goeppert-Mayer moved to the US with her husband Joseph Edward Mayer, a chemist, in 1930. While in the US, Goeppert-Mayer developed the nuclear shell model, for which she shared the 1963 Nobel Prize in Physics with Johannes Hans Daniel Jensen and Eugene Paul Wigner. She was the first woman to receive the award in 60 years.
Dorothy Crowfoot Hodgkin OM
Dorothy showed a love for science as a child, and at age 18, she began studying chemistry at a women-only Oxford college. She earned her PhD at the University of Cambridge, where she first took an interest in X-ray crystallography and began studying the structure of proteins. In 1934, she moved back to Oxford, where she was appointed the university’s first research chemistry fellow. Her work on mapping vitamin B12 earned her the Nobel Prize in Chemistry in 1964.

Elephant Transit Home
In both Africa and Asia elephants are being threatened by changes in their natural habitats. People are moving into the elephants’ habitats and endangering their survival. In the country of Sri Lanka, there is one place where elephants are not only protected but also respected. It is called the Elephant Transit Home (ETH).
Set up in 1995, the ETH aims to protect and nurture baby elephants that are found injured or living without their mothers in the wild. Every year about 30 baby elephants in Sri Lanka need help. As many as possible are brought to the ETH. There they are given food, shelter, and medical care. Most importantly, they are given the chance to be with other elephants and become part of an elephant herd (象群).
A day at the ETH begins early in the morning when the baby elephants are given their first feeding of milk. During the day, each baby will drink an average of 13 gallons of milk. Older elephants are fed mostly coconut leaves and other native plants. Then the elephants are allowed to walk around, eating the grass and forming a herd. The cost of caring for the baby elephants is high. The ETH spends about ＄125,000 each year on powdered milk for the baby elephants.
At the ETH, workers try to reduce human connection with the elephants. They also try to increase the bonds(联系) between the elephants. It usually takes three years for a baby elephant to be set free into its natural habitat. The elephants are sent back to the wild together with other orphans with whom they have bonded. This program helps them return to the wild as members of a herd that will communicate with each other and take care of each other.
The ETH is considered one of the best animal protection sites in the world. The elephants there are not only cared for, but also treated with respect. Most importantly, they will go back to live in the wild, where they belong.
4.What does the underlined word “nurture” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Set free. B.Care for. C.Focus on. D.Relate to.
5.What do we know about the ETH?
A.It receives about ＄125,000 each year.

Jack Rummler was in the hospital, but he kept emailing his journalism teacher and classmates at Boone High School in the US. He wanted to stay on top of his newspaper work and didn’t want anyone else to be stuck with the tasks he’d taken on.
“He would be in the hospital writing stories,” said Renee Burke, his teacher at the time. “He wouldn’t stop worrying about us.”
Rummler, 18, said he did this because he enjoyed high school journalism so much. “Every little aspect of it.”
“He is a compassionate(有同情心的) student,” Burke said, “who always seems to be thinking about others, even when he faces his own challenges.”
Born with spina bifida (脊柱裂), he walks with a limp (跛行) and has had about 12 surgeries. Two years ago, medical problems kept him out of school for weeks.
“Yet, he never wanted to be treated differently,” Burke said, “nor did he avoid doing anything that might be physically challenging for him, such as filming football games.” During his high school life, he worked his way up from the staff member to the editor-in-chief of the Boone paper.
And last month, he won the “student journalist of the year” award from the Florida Scholastic Press Association.
The contest required student journalists to put together examples of their work and their ability to be “backpack journalists” who could take on many types of assignments. Rummler’s examples included stories and opinion pieces, a graphic he’d designed about school construction, and a TV commercial (广告) for the paper’s online site.
“I think one of the things that journalism taught me is to always be aware of what’s going on in the world,” he said.
His school paper publishes in print four times a year, as well as online. The last issue he worked on was about graduation, showcasing the accomplishments of top students and athletes, among the soon-to-be graduates.
In August, Rummler will start at the University of Florida, where he plans to study environmental sustainability and communications.
“Whatever he does, he’s going to be great at it,” said Bridgette Norris, the current journalism teacher at Boone, who taught him this past school year.
8.Which of the following words can best describe Rummler?
A.Hardworking and modest.
B.Optimistic and creative.
C.Humorous and talented.
D.Strong-minded and considerate.
9.What can we learn about Rummler?
A.He has had more than 20 surgeries.
B.He is willing to accept difficult tasks.
C.He has never missed school because of his disease.
D.He will soon be the editor-in-chief of the Boone paper.
10.What won Rummler the “student journalist of the year” award?
A.His willingness to accept challenges.
B.His contribution to his high school paper.
C.His ability to create a variety of news works.
D.His inspiring reports about graduation.
11.How does Norris feel about Rummler’s life in college?
A.Confident. B.Doubtful. C.Surprised. D.Worried.
D
The endangered pandas in the Qinling Mountains might face a new threat: the loss of their food—bamboo, which makes up 99% of their meals.
Adult pandas spend most part of the day eating bamboo and have to take in at least 40 pounds a day to stay healthy. However, a new study published in Nature Climate Change warned that they may soon find their food gone because most of the bamboo in the Qinling Mountains might disappear by the end of the century as a result of rising temperature worldwide.
A team made up of researchers from Michigan State University and the Chinese Academy of Sciences has studied the effects of climate change on the bamboo in the Qinling Mountains. They have found that bamboo is very sensitive to climate change. “80% to 100% of the bamboo would be gone if the average temperature increases 3.5 degrees worldwide by the end of the century,” said Liu Jianguo, one of the report’s authors.
He added, “This is how much the temperature would rise by 2100 even if all countries will keep their promises in The Paris Agreement. But you know what is happening around the world.”
In recent years, China has been trying its best to protect the endangered pandas by setting up more and bigger nature reserves.
“But it is far from being enough and the endangered pandas need cooperation from the rest of the world, because their future is not just in the hands of the Chinese, ”said Shirley Martin from the WWF but not a member of the team.
There are about 260 pandas in the Qinling Mountains. That is about 13% of the population of China’s wild pandas. In addition, about 375 are living in research centers and zoos in China.
12.What can we learn from the first paragraph?
A.The Qinling Mountains can provide enough bamboo for the pandas.
B.Pandas in the Qinling Mountains are only threatened by the loss of food.
C.Lots of the bamboo in the Qinling Mountains will probably disappear.
D.Pandas have already eaten 99% of the bamboo in the Qinling Mountains.
13.What does Liu Jianguo mean?
A.China needs more help from the WWF.
B.It is difficult to control the temperature rise within 3.5 degrees.
C.Bamboo is sensitive to changes in temperature.
D.China is making great efforts to protect the pandas.
14.How many wild pandas are there in China?
A.About 260. B.About 635.
C.About 2,635. D.About 2,000.
15.Which can be the best title for the text?
A.The Disappearance of Bamboo
B.Necessity to Change Pandas’ Food
C.A New Threat Faced by the Pandas
D.Efforts Made to Save Pandas

Leonardo da Vinci and Nature
In the modern world, art and science are two very separate activities, but in Leonardo’s time they were closely connected. Science meant mathematics and medical studies. 16 Mathematics included practical work like surveying land for making maps as well as measuring the movements of the stars in the sky. An artist might need to measure the different parts of the body. He could also use mathematics to place things in relationship to each other in a drawing or painting so the scene looked correct. 17
Mathematics was also connected to music because musical sounds have a fixed relationship with each other that can be described in numbers. 18 More than this, though, Leonardo believed that numbers were a part of all things in the world including music, and he said that “without them nothing can be done”.
“Nature has kindly given us things everywhere to copy,” wrote Leonardo. In all his activities, Leonardo was trying to discover the rules that control nature. In his search for those rules, he looked very carefully at a lot of examples and details. Actual experience was more important to him than the opinion, and he worked from facts to ideas. 19 His purpose was to examine the world so he could copy it in beautiful paintings and sculptures. He also wanted to learn from the clever solutions of nature.
20 His quick little sketches (素描), often done while wandering outside, helped him to catch a movement or a shape. More careful drawings would be done at a desk with a pen and a ruler. In July 2001, a small drawing by Leonardo was sold for $12 million. It was the most expensive drawing in the world.
A.Mathematicians and doctors worked to discover the unknown.
B.Leonardo’s ideas were vastly ahead of his time.
C.How could these be connected with art?
D.Leonardo was always drawing.
E.Above all, Leonardo wanted to understand how and why things worked.
F.Leonardo himself was a very good musician and liked to play an instrument and sing.
G.You will see a good example of such positioning in the painting of The Last Supper.

Tom was working in a big company. He had been on the road visiting people for more than a month without going home. He couldn’t wait to get back to see his wife and children. It was coming up on Mother’s Day, and he usually tried to make it “back home”, but this year he was just too busy and too tired. The day when he was driving in a small town, he saw a flower shop. He said to himself, “I know what I will do. I’ll send my mother some roses.”
He stopped and went into the flower shop and saw a young man talking to the girl in it. “How many roses can I get for five dollars, Ms.?” the boy asked. The girl was trying to explain that roses were expensive. Maybe the young man would be happy with something else.
“No. I have to have roses,” he said.“My mom was badly sick last year and I didn’t get to spend much time with her. I want to get her something special. It has to be red roses, because those are her favorite.” He was stubborn.
The girl in the shop looked up at Tom and was just shaking her head. Something inside Tom was touched by the boy’s voice. He wanted to get those roses so badly. Tom had been blessed with his business, and he looked at the girl and silently said that he would pay for the boy’s roses.
The girl looked at the young man and said, “OK, I will give you a dozen red roses for your dollars.” The young man almost jumped into the air. He took the flowers and ran out of the store. It was worth more than fifty dollars just to see that kind of excitement.
Tom ordered his own flowers and asked the girl to have them delivered (递送) to his mother. After that, with relief (松了一口气) he drove down the road. Not long after his driving, he saw the boy walking to a graveyard (墓地).

32.D explore探索;substitute代替;understand明白;shape对……有巨大影响,塑造。结合上下文可知,此处表示Wright先生对作者日后的生活有很大影响,故选D项。
33.C give away赠送,泄露;stand out突出;push forward继续前进;break away挣脱。此处用“前进”符合语境,故选C项。
34.A more than多于;rather than而非;regardless of不管;instead of而非。由最后两句可推知此处表示Wright先生是作者认识的最热爱自己事业的老师,故选A项。
35.B attempt企图;deserve值得,应得;pretend假装;decline谢绝。结合上下文可知,Wright先生因为热爱且做好了自己的工作获得了“年度教育工作者”称号,这个称号是他应得的,故选B项。
第二节
36.an 考查冠词。hero是可数名词,结合上下文可知此处表示“一个印度的民族英雄”,是泛指,故用不定冠词,又因Indian以元音音素开头,故填an。
37.was looked 考查时态、语态和主谓一致。结合上下文判断此处应用一般过去时,又因look up to和主语He之间是被动关系,故用一般过去时的被动语态,主语He是单数,故填was looked。
38.Following 考查现在分词。分析句子结构可知,此处是非谓语动词短语作状语,follow和其逻辑主语he之间是主动关系,故用现在分词,故填Following。
39.for 考查介词。set sail for表示“起航前往”,故填for。
40.what 考查主语从句。分析句子结构可知,设空处引导主语从句且在从句中作主语,故填what。
41.when 考查定语从句。分析句子结构可知,设空处引导非限制性定语从句,且在从句中作时间状语,故用关系副词when。
42.led 考查时态。由语境可知,整篇文章讲述过去的事情,所以此处应用一般过去时,故填led。
43.included 考查形容词。句意:在一场政治运动中,许多印度人,包括甘地,都被关进了监狱。included表示“包括在内的”。故填included。
44.independence 考查名词。设空处作won的宾语,根据its可知此处应填名词,故填independence。
45.Unfortunately 考查副词。由后文可知,甘地被反对他的人枪杀了。此处修饰后面的句子,应填副词,再结合语境可知,此处应填Unfortunately。
第三部分 写作
第一节
One possible version:
Dear Mr. White,
I’m writing to extend our sincere gratitude to you for your hospitality during our stay in Canada.
We were deeply impressed by the comfortable accommodation and the superb local cuisine you arranged for us. And the activities you organized not only broadened our horizons but promoted our mutual understanding. We now have a deeper insight into Canadian culture.
Thanks again for all your efforts. We do hope you can visit our school in the near future!
Best wishes,
Li Hua
第二节
One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
Tom stopped his car and followed the young man. The young man went up to a small monument and knelt down. He carefully put the flowers before it and began to sob, “Dear Mom, I love you. But how I regret that I didn’t tell it to you when you were with me. I knew you loved roses, but why didn’t I send the flowers to you when I could still see you and talk with you? Now, you have gone to another world. How I regret that I didn’t tell you I love you so much!”
Paragraph 2:
Tom went into the car in tears. His mother’s home wasn’t far from here, but he hadn’t seen her for so long a time. He didn’t have a talk with her or say how much he loved her for so long a time. He turned the car and drove towards the flower shop quickly. When he arrived, he asked the girl to give back the flowers because he wanted to send them personally to his mom.
