21、How to Write a Good Ending to a Story
Stories present an event or series of events and have a beginning, middle, and end. 【1】 To write a good ending for your story, there are at least four methods to show the reader why your story is important.
Deciding the End
【2】 The middle will include rising tension and your characters’ reactions to the conflict. Most story conflicts will either be person vs. nature, person vs. society, or person vs. themselves. Your final scene should resolve this conflict, whether your characters get what they want or not.
Explaining the Journey
Reflect on the significance of all the events. What themes, ideas, or arguments are you trying to portray through them? You don’t want to tell your reader directly, but you need to show them. 【3】—where the reader follows the events flowing in turn—will help you create an ending that makes sense based on what has happened earlier.
Using Action and Images
Use action to show (not tell) what is important. We know that stories full of action, whether written or visual, appeal to all ages. Build your ending with description and sensory images, for sensory details connect us emotionally to the story. Highlight a theme. 【4】
Following Logic
Sometimes when we get too excited (or too frustrated) about a story we’re writing, we can forget that events and behaviors tend to follow logic. 【5】 Most topics—if pursued through logic—will invite your readers into deeper thinking.
A．First, identify the parts of your story.
B．Taking a journey to seek inspirations
C．Thinking about your story as a journey
D．Your story will have a beginning to introduce characters and setting.
E．A good story ending often creates a significant impact on the reader.
F．Actually, a good ending just records what would logically happen in a situation.
G．Focusing on a specific subject through images and actions can help you create a structure unique to your story.
22、Conventional wisdom says that hardship can make us old before our time. In fact, a new study suggests that violence not only leaves long-term scars on childrens bodies, but also changes their DNA, causing changes that are equal to seven to ten years of premature aging.
Scientists measured this by studying the ends of childrens chromosomes(染色体), called telomeres, says Idan Shalev, lead author of a study published in Molecular Psychiatry.
Telomeres are special DNA sequences which prevent the DNA in chromosomes from separating. They get shorter each time a cell divides, until a cell cannot divide any more and dies.
Several factors have been found to shorten telomeres, including smoking, radiation and psychological stresses such as being treated badly when young and taking care of a chronically ill person.
In this study, researchers examined whether exposure to violence could make children’s telomeres shorten faster than normal. They interviewed the mothers of 236 children at ages 5, 7 and 10, asking whether the youngsters had been exposed to domestic violence between the mother and her partner; physical maltreatment by an adult; or bullying. Researchers measured the children’s telomeres—in cells obtained by swabbing the insides of their cheeks—at ages 5 and 10.
Telomeres shortened faster in kids exposed to two or more types of violence, says Shalev. Unless that pattern changes, the study suggests, these kids could be expected to develop diseases of aging, such as heart attacks or memory loss, seven to 10 years earlier than their peers.
Shalev says there is hope for these kids. His study found that, in rare cases, telomeres can lengthen. Better nutrition, exercise and stress reduction are three things that may be able to lengthen telomeres, he says.
The study confirms a small but growing number of studies suggesting that early childhood adversity imprints itself in our chromosomes, says Charles Nelson, a professor of pediatrics and neuroscience at Harvard Medical School.
【1】The new study found that ________.
A. hardship can change a childs aging
B. violence leaves scars on a childs mind
C. violence can speed up a childs aging
D. hardship has a long term effect on a childs mind
【2】According to the text, telomeres ________.
A. are at the ends of peoples chromosomes
B. can help prevent DNA from separating
C. can make a cell die quickly
D. become shorter before they die
【3】Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
A. Violence can cause quick cell division in childrens body.
B. Researchers measured the childrens telomeres from their legs in the study.
C. Being treated badly will make a childs telomeres shorten faster.
D. Children who have shorter telomeres may have a heart attack earlier.
【4】What is the best title for the text?
A. Violence Aging Childrens DNA
B. Childrens Changing DNA Patterns
C. Violence and Telomeres
D. The Function of Telomeres
23、Since Edmund Hillary and Tenzing Norgay climbed Mount Everest, Mount Qomolangma’s peak is no longer a lonely place and is turning into a trash heap.
So far, more than 350 climbers have successfully reached the peak. And they have complained about waiting for hours in the bottlenecks (狭窄路段) on the way to the peak, a situation that isn’t just uncomfortable — it’s cold and windy up there — but downright dangerous. If bad weather strikes, climbers can and do die.
As a matter of fact, the dangerous crowds aren’t the only problem on Qomolangma. All those climbers need to bring a lot of gear—and much of them ends up being left on the mountain, sometimes even the peak itself. Mount Qomolangma is becoming the world’s largest dump. Here’s mountaineer Mark Jenkins writing in National Geographic about the state of Qomolangma: “The two standard routes, the Northeast Ridge and the Southeast Ridge, are disgustingly polluted with oxygen cans and torn tents everywhere.”
But the good news is that some mountaineers are taking it upon themselves to clean up Qomolangma. Mountianeer Paul Thelen and his friend Eberhard Schaaf are part of the annual Eco Everest Expedition, which has been cleaning up rubbish from base camps to the peak since 2008. So far they’ve collected over 13 tons of garbage.
Some of that rubbish is even being used for a higher purpose. As part of the Mount Everest 8844 Art Project, a group of 15 artists from Nepal collected 1.5 tons of garbage brought down the mountain by climbers. They’ve transformed the cans and oxygen tanks—and in one case, part of the remains of a helicopter—into 74 pieces of art that have already gone on exhibition in Nepal’s capital. Part of the profit from sales will go to the Everest Peakers Association, which has helped collect tons of rubbish on the slopes of the mountain.
【1】What does the underlined word “gear” mean?
A. Equipment for climbing mountains.
B.. The food climbers brought onto the mountain.
C. Some important machines used for the bottlenecks.
D. Some rubbish found on the mountain.
【2】The group of 15 Nepali artists_________.
A. created works of art using rubbish from Qomolangma
B. were employed by the Everest Peakeers Association
C. climbed Qomolangma and collected 1.5 tons of trash
D. painted 74 beautiful pictures of Mount Qomolangma’s peak
【3】What can be the best title for the text?
A. Eco Everest Expedition Proves Successful
B. Qomolangma Has Become A Huge Mess
C. Test Yourself Against Qomolangma
D. Recycle Rubbish On Qomolangma
