23、Home to me means a sense of familiarity and nostalgia(怀旧). It's fun to come home. It looks the same. It smells the same. You'll realize what's changed is you. Home is where we ran remember pain, live, and some other experiences; We parted here; My parents met here; I won three championships here.
If I close my eyes, I can still have a clear picture in mind of my first home. I walk in the door and see a brown sofa surrounding a low glass-top wooden table. To the right of the living room is my first bedroom. It's empty, but it's where my earliest memories are.
There is the dining room table where I celebrated birthdays, and where I cried on Halloween-when I didn't want to wear the skirt my mother made for me. I always liked standing on that table because it made me feel tall and strong. If I sit at this table, I can see my favorite room in the house, my parents' room. It is simple: a brown wooden dresser lines the right side of the wall next to a television and a couple of photos of my grandparents on each side. Their bed is my safe zone. I can jump on it anytime - waking up my parents if I am scared or if I have an important announcement that cannot wait until the morning.
I'm lucky because I know my first home still exists. It exists in my mind and heart, on a physical property(住宅) on West 64th street on the western edge of Los Angeles. It is proof I lived, I grew and I learned.
Sometimes when I feel lost, I lie down and shut my eyes, and I go home. I know it's where I'll find my family, my dogs, and my belongings. I purposely leave the window open at night because I know I'll be blamed by Mom. But I don't mind, because I want to hear her say my name, which reminds me I'm home.

24、Cristina Mittermeier is a marine biologist, activist and multi-award-winning photographer who has given her life to ocean protection. Recognised as being one of the world’s most influential conservation photographers, Cristina has travelled to 132 countries to achieve her goal — to communicate the immediate need to protect wild places.
She began her career as a marine biologist, but soon realised that she could better work for the interests of the oceans and the planet through her camera than with scientific data. In her eyes, science is basic to understanding what is happening to our planet, but it fails to convey (传递) the emotions that make us care.
According to Cristina, photography allows us to humanise (使人性化) stories and create something meaningful, and she had an urgent need to share the difficult situation of the planet. For her, it’s all about the emotional connections we can establish with the subject matter. She loves creating pictures that engages people in conversations and makes them stop and think. Establishing a successful career as a photographer has not been an easy journey. She worked hard at teaching herself the basics of photography and then she went back to school to learn more about the underpinnings of fine art.
When asked what has inspired her focus on marine life, she replied, “The ocean is barely mentioned but it is the largest ecosystem on our planet and is the ecosystem that has the most influence on Earth. It absorbs at least 25% of all emissions and most of the heat on our planet. I want people to recognise that the ocean isn’t just hurt by climate change — it is our solution. If our oceans die — and they are dying — we will die with them. Life on Earth is not possible without a living ocean.”
【1】What goal did Cristina intend to achieve in her travels?
A．To take more wonderful pictures.
B．To urge people to protect the wild places.
C．To work for the non-for-profit organization.
D．To become the world’s most influential photographer.
【2】What makes Cristina think she can better work as a photographer?
A．She was bored with her career as a marine biologist.
B．She can’t understand what is happening to our planet.
C．She can convey emotional information through her camera.
D．She wants to establish a successful career as a photographer.
【3】Why does Cristina focus on the ocean?
A．Because of the marine life.
B．Because of the great emissions.
C．Because of her love for the ocean.
D．Because of the ocean’s importance.
【4】Which of the following can best describe Cristina?
A．Powerful.
B．Patient.
C．Responsible.
D．Intelligent.

26、阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
As Amy Hagadorn, diagnosed with cerebral palsy (大脑性麻痹), rounded the corner across the hall from her classroom, she ran into a tall boy from the fifth grade running in the opposite direction. “Watch it, squirt (小东西)!” The boy yelled as he dodged (躲避) around the little third-grader. Then, with a smirk (得意的笑) on his face, the boy took hold of his right leg and imitated the way Amy limped (跛行) when she walked. Amy closed her eyes. “Ignore him,” she told herself as she headed for her classroom. But at the end of the day, Amy was still thinking about the tall boy’s mean teasing. It wasn’t as if he were the only one. It seemed that ever since Amy started the third grade, someone teased her every single day. Kids teased her about her speech or her limping. Amy was tired of it. Sometimes, even in a classroom full of other students, the teasing made her feel all alone. Back home at the dinner table that evening, Amy was quiet. Her mother knew that things were not going well at school. That’s why Patti Hagadorn was happy to have some exciting news to share with her daughter. “There’s a Christmas wish contest on the radio station,” Amy’s mom announced. “Write a letter to Santa, and you might win a prize. I think someone at this table with blonde curly hair should enter.”
The contest sounded like fun. Amy giggled. She started thinking about what she wanted most for Christmas. The rest of the family tried to guess what she might ask from Santa. Amy’s sister, Jamie, and Amy’s mom both thought a three-foot Barbie doll would top Amy’s wish list. Amy’s dad guessed a picture book. A smile took hold of Amy when the idea first came to her. Here is Amy’s letter to Santa, just as she wrote it that night.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“Dear Santa Claus,” she began.
