Wang Fang, a Suzhou native, has given her heart and soul to Kunqu Opera. Wang, who has twice won the Plum Performance Award — China’s top award for theater and opera performances-started to learn the traditional art form in 1977.
Born with a melodic voice, Wang loved to sing and dance when she was little. She performed frequently, and was recruited by the Suzhou Kunqu Opera Troupe (剧团) when she was in middle school. However, her parents refused the troupe’s invitation, insisting that she should concentrate on her studies and not drop out of school. After members of the troupe visited the parents repeatedly and showed great sincerity,Wang’s parents finally agreed.
Learning the traditional art form was never easy. She started to learn how to pronounce words, sing them lyrically and make gestures gently. As an actress playing martial artists roles at first, she had to spend extra time practicing kung fu movements. Years later, Wang used the word “unimaginable” to describe how hard the days were when she first learned Kunqu. She was soaked in sweat when practicing movements in summer, while in winter she often had chilblains (冻疮) on her hands when training in shabby classrooms with broken windows. “But I was young and determined at the time. No matter how difficult, I always got up early the next morning to practice,” Wang recalls.
Wang says she did not love Kunqu at first, but in her early 20s,when she watched the show Peony Pavilion performed by Zhang Jiqing, a master of the art form, it clicked. “I was shocked,” Wang says. “Her every movement was full of elegance and delicacy. Each of her lines and songs was perfect. I was overwhelmed by the beauty of Kunqu for the first time in my life, and it has stayed with me since.” Now, Wang has herself become a master of Kunqu. Her performances have impressed generations and helped to promote the art form among young people.
4. Why did Wang’s parents turn down the troupe’s invitation at first
A. They didn’t think Wang had artistic talent.
B. They saw no future in learning Kunqu Opera.
C. They didn’t want Wang to ignore her studies.
D. They regarded members of the troupe as insincere.
5. What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us
A. Wang has made great efforts to learn Kunqu well.
B Artists should be given more attention and care.
C. Traditional culture needs to be further promoted.
D. Wang has played a key role in the development of Kunqu.
6. What changed Wang’s attitude towards Kunqu Opera
A. Winning the Plum Performance Award.
B. Joining the Suzhou Kunqu Opera Troupe.
C. Watching Zhang’s masterly performance.
D. Being greatly admired by the audience.
7. What does Wang’s story show us
A. It is never too late to learn. B. Rome was not built in a day.
C. Doing is better than saying. D. Don’t judge a book by its cover.
【答案】4. C 5. A 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了昆曲艺术家王芳的个人简介,以及她学习昆曲的求学之路,通过艰苦学习,最后才获得梅花表演家的称号。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。第二段“She performed frequently, and was recruited by the Suzhou Kunqu Opera Troupe (剧团) when she was in middle school. However, her parents refused the troupe’s invitation, insisting that she should concentrate on her studies and not drop out of school.”(在中学时,她经常参加表演,并被苏州昆曲剧团录取。 然而,她的父母拒绝了剧团的邀请,坚持让她专心学习,不要辍学。)可知,王芳的父母不想让王忽略她的学业,才会拒绝剧团的邀请。故选C项。
【5题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段开头“Learning the traditional art form was never easy.”(学习传统艺术从来都不容易。)以及该段倒数第三句“She was soaked in sweat when practicing movements in summer, while in winter she often had chilblains (冻疮) on her hands when training in shabby classrooms with broken windows.”(在练习动作时,她夏天练到衣服湿透,冬天冻得手上常长冻疮。当她在破旧的教室里训练时,她的手还受伤了。)因此可知,学习昆曲的过程是非常辛苦的,王芳为了学好昆曲付出了巨大的努力。故选A项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。最后一段“Wang says she did not love Kunqu at first, but in her early 20s,when she watched the show Peony Pavilion performed by Zhang Jiqing, a master of the art form, it clicked.”(王说她最初不喜欢昆曲,在看到张继青表演的《牡丹亭》之后,她被深深震撼,爱上了昆曲。)由此可知,王改变对昆曲的态度,是因为看到了张继青出神入化的表演,才让他对昆曲从不爱转变为喜爱。故选C项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句王芳说的话“No matter how difficult, I always got up early the next morning to practice,”(无论有多难,我第二天早上总是早早地起床练习。)以及通读全文,进行总结概括,文章主要讲了王芳学习昆曲的艰苦历程。虽然她天生嗓音悦耳,但却中途遭到过父母的阻拦,经剧团劝说后,她才再继续学习昆曲。学习过程也十分辛苦,她经过多年的努力,最后获得两次梅花表演家的称号。因此,文章通过王芳昆曲艺术家的事例,告诉我们,做什么事,要想成功,就必须要坚持,每天都努力。正所谓,罗马不是一日建成的。故选B项。
C
4D printing creates objects capable of rearranging themselves in response to environmental stimulation. Given that they change with time, the fourth dimension in 4D printing is time. Printing with a material that changes in response to its environment has been done before to create some objects that can grow or shrink, open or close. To do these changes, the objects needed to be placed underwater.
The new ink developed by Del Pozo will make reversible (可逆的) change possible in normal conditions. The ink itself is made with liquid crystals instead of the previously used shape-memory polymers or hydrogels (水凝胶). Shape-memory, polymers cannot reverse their form changes and hydrogels can only reverse their changes underwater.
“ What we didn’t yet have was a more flexible material, capable of reversing its shape-shifting in various environments in response to stimulation (刺激). Now, we can adapt liquid crystals in multiple ways. We can play with not only the chemical composition but also the molecular (分子的) arrangement,” said Del Pozo.
“ Thus, materials can be designed that are responsive to humidity (湿度) or temperature and whose movement can be controlled. And by combining materials with different functionalities, printed objects can be organized to form a communicating system,” Del Pozo continued.
The ink is also light-sensitive, which provides many possible applications for the technology in combination with the other stimulation. Del Pozo looks forward to the potential for soft robots and medical applications such as printable artificial eyes.
8. Why was previous 4D printing not satisfying
A. The process is too slow. B. It was too expensive to perform.
C. The materials are not stable. D. The objects must be underwater.
9. What made reversible change possible in normal conditions
A. The finding of a new material. B. The application of new printers.
C. The invention of a new ink. D. The use of a new printing method.
10. What does the last paragraph mainly about
A. The potential use of the new technology.
B. The development of the new technology.
C. The disadvantages of the new technology.
D. The working principle of the new technology.
11. What is the text
A. A travel guide. B. A news report.
C. A short story. D. A novel.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文为新闻报道。文章介绍了新墨水的发明使4D打印可逆变化在正常情况下成为可能。
【详解】1. 推理判断题。由文章第一段“To do these changes, the objects needed to be placed underwater. (为了实现这些改变,这些物体需要被放置在水下)”可推知,之前的4D打印不令人满意是因为这些物体需要被放置在水下。故选D。
2. 细节理解题。由文章第二段“The new ink developed by Del Pozo will make reversible (可逆的) change possible in normal conditions. (由德尔·波佐开发的这种新墨水将使正常情况下的可逆变化成为可能)”可知,是新墨水的发明使可逆变化在正常情况下成为可能。故选C。
3. 主旨大意题。由文章最后一段“The ink is also light-sensitive, which provides many possible applications for the technology in combination with the other stimulation. Del Pozo looks forward to the potential for soft robots and medical applications such as printable artificial eyes.(该油墨也是光敏的,这为该技术与其他刺激结合提供了许多可能的应用。德尔波佐期待着软体机器人和医疗应用的潜力,如可打印的人造眼睛)”可推知,最后一段主要展望这项新技术的应用前景。故选A。
4. 推理判断题。通读全文,文章报道了新墨水的发明使4D打印可逆变化在正常情况下成为可能,所以这是一篇新闻报道。故选B。
D
How often do you talk with someone How often do you find you can't remember his/her words Or, perhaps you get distracted (分心) while he/she is speaking and miss his/her messages. Nowadays, modern life is full of distractions: TVs, radios, telephones, and so on, which can make it difficult to listen attentively.
But how can we listen more effectively John Kabatzin, professor at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, put forward the idea of mindful(用心的)listening. He said mindfulness means paying attention in a special way, with a purpose, at the present moment and non-judgmentally(不评头论足地).
When we listen mindfully, we many have some difficulties but still remain open to the speaker's ideas and messages. Mindfulness encourages us to focus on the present moment, avoid distractions and ignore physical and emotional reactions(反应)to what people say.
But how can we apply mindful listening to our life John describes three key elements(要素)which can help improve our listening skills.
First, be present. When we listen, focus on the speaker without distractions. Then cultivate the ability to understand others. When we develop it, we can understand a situation from someone else's point of view. Finally, listen to our own “cues”, such as the thoughts, feelings and physical reactions that we have when we feel anxious or angry.
The rule is simple: just “Listen”! Listen carefully and attentively. Pay full attention to the other person, and don't let other thoughts, like what we are going to say next, distract us.
12. What's the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To introduce the topic. B. To raise a question.
C. To show the influence of distractions. D. To describe daily situations.
13. What is one of the advantages of mindful listening
A. Making physical and emotional reactions. B. Sharing messages with the speaker.
C. Stopping distracting thoughts. D. Making sure of feeling understood.
14. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 5 refer to
A. The feeling of trusting others. B. The ability to put yourself in others’ shoes.
C. The ability to help others. D. The behavior of listening to others.
15. What can be the best title for the passage
A. Advantages of Mindful Listening B. Key Elements of Mindful Listening
C. A Research on Mindful Listening D. An Introduction of Mindful Listening
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。现代人在与人对话时总是容易因为各种因素而分心、错过别人说的话,来自麻省大学医学院的教授John Kabatzin提出一种用心聆听的思路,鼓励人们专注于当前、不对对话内容评头论足而分心。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。浏览第一段,首先连续抛出两个问题,并总结出“Nowadays, modern life is full of distractions: TVs, radios, telephones, and so on, which can make it difficult to listen attentively.(如今,现代生活充满了让人们分心的东西:电视、电台、电话等等,这些都会让我们难以专注于倾听)”这样的现状,再转到下一段提问如何更高效地倾听,就引出了文章的主要话题,所以第一段的作用就是引出话题。故选A项。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“When we listen mindfully, we many have some difficulties but still remain open to the speaker's ideas and messages. Mindfulness encourages us to focus on the present moment, avoid distractions and ignore physical and emotional reactions(反应)to what people say.(当我们用心倾听时,我们也许还会有些困难,但仍然对讲话者的想法和信息保持开放。用心倾听鼓励我们专注于当下,避免分心并无视对于对话内容的身心反应)”可知,通过用心倾听我们可以避免分心、摒除杂念,与C选项“停止令人分心的想法”含义相符,这正是用心倾听的好处之一。故选C项。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第五段中“First, be present. When we listen, focus on the speaker without distractions. Then cultivate the ability to understand others. When we develop it, we can understand a situation from someone else's point of view.(首先,专注于当下。当我们在倾听时,不要分心、专注于讲话者。然后培养理解他人的能力。当我们将其发展起来后,就能从其他人的观点中理解情况了)”可知,搭配动词develop和行文的逻辑顺序(按照步骤从前到后进行)it应该指代前句中的the ability to understand others,与B选项“设身处地为别人着想的能力”含义相符。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。总览全文,尤其第三段的“John Kabatzin, professor at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, put forward the idea of mindful(用心的)listening. He said mindfulness means paying attention in a special way, with a purpose, at the present moment and non-judgmentally(不评头论足地).(麻州大学医学院教授John Kabatzin提出了用心倾听的想法。他说,用心倾听意味着在当下以一种特殊的方式、有目的地、不带偏见地关注)”文章以现代人在倾听时容易分心这一现状引入,主要介绍了一种“用心倾听”的倾听方式和其关键因素,D选项“用心倾听的介绍”符合文章主题,适合作为标题。故选D项。

You might say that a toxicologist studies substances that lead to ___41___ (die). But toxicology is also about saving lives. What can kill, can cure. Medical ___42___ (research) such as Weterhahn risk their lives daily for the benefit of others. Their work is dangerous, but it has the potential ___43___ (save) lives. In memory of Wetterhahn’s life and work, Dartmouth College created the Karen Wetterhahn Memorial Award. The award ___44___ (give) to female science students ____45____ receive money to continue their scientific research.
【答案】36. of 37. how
38. worried
39. Unfortunately
40. had 41. death
42. researchers
43. to save
44. is given
45. who/that
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了Wetterhahn因为接触到毒物而去世的故事,但是要记住像她一样的毒理学家,因为他们的工作充满危险,但是却间接在拯救生命。
【36题详解】
考查介词。句意:一滴小小的剧毒的化学名为二甲基汞滴到Wetterhahn左手。这里的drop为名词,a drop of a very toxic chemical意为“一滴剧毒的化学物质”。故填写of。
【37题详解】
考查副词。句意:威特哈恩是研究有毒金属如何致癌的专家。On后面接宾语从句,how表示“如何”。故填写how。
【38题详解】
考查动词。句意:她并不担心。短语be worried about意为“对…担心”,此处前面是Be动词,故应填写worried。
【39题详解】
考查副词。句意:不幸的是,毒物穿过了手套。形容词unfortunate意为“不幸的”,这里应该使用副词unfortunately意为“不幸地”,放在句首首字母大写。故填写Unfortunately。
【40题详解】
考查时态。句意:她走路和说话变得困难起来。这个故事叙述的是过去的事,采用一般过去时,所以这里也应该使用一般过去时态。故填写had。
【41题详解】
考查名词。句意:你可能会说毒理学家研究导致死亡的物质。Lead to death意为“导致死亡”,to是介词,后面应该接名词形式。故填写death。
【42题详解】
考查名词。句意:像Weterhahn这样的医学研究人员为了他人的利益,每天都冒着生命危险。Research意为“研究”,后面说的是像Weterhahn的一类人,Weterhahn是研究学家,所以应该使用researchers,意为“研究人员”。故填写researchers。
【43题详解】
考查不定式。句意:但是却有潜能来拯救生命。短语have the potential to do sth,意为“有做某事的潜力”,此处应该接不定式。故填写to save。
【44题详解】
考查语态。句意:该奖项颁发给那些获得资金继续进行科学研究的女理科学生。Be given to意为“被给予”,奖项和给的动作是被动关系,所以使用被动语态。故填写is given。
【45题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:该奖项颁发给那些获得资金继续进行科学研究的女理科学生。先行词是女学生,定语从句缺主语,所以使用who/that引导定语从句。故填写who/that。

第二节 (满分 25分)
47. 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 a diffident 10-year-old, I’d sworn (发誓) off swimming for life the day my friend pushed me into our neighbourhood pool. The incident only made me fear it more. So when my husband turned out to be a so-called ‘water baby’, it felt ironic to say the least. My husband belongs to the competitive swimmer, cliff jumper and extreme water-sport lover. Me I panic when the force of the shower is stronger than usual.
In those early days, we were both eager to please and forgive each other ‘sf avorite hobbies. For our honeymoon, we chose the Maldives-fashionable, beachy and romantic in equal measure. My husband knew about my aquaphobia (恐水症), but assumed its cause was a lack of experience in the water.
So, on the second day of our trip, bored of snorkelling (浮潜) by himself, he convinced me to sit backseat on a jet-ski while he drove. Five minutes later, the high-speed equipment upended and we went headfirst into the Indian Ocean. A sudden stillness as the water formed a wall overhead with only the sharp reflection of the sun providing light; shock, disorientation (迷失方向), panic; and finally, when our life jackets bounced us back to safety, a feeling of fast breathlessness and many pools of tears. My husband jumped back on the vehicle in a flash while attempting to keep me calm and pull me back on as well. Once back on firm ground, I swore off water activities for good.
Some might think a one-off sudden incident like this would, in time, fade from memory. But later trips and water meets only strengthened my standpoint. I madly prayed to the gods when our private houseboat met rough waters during a stay at Capri, Italy. And on a trip to a famous spa in the Himalayas, I laid the blame for this funny fear on a previous life where I’d drowned.
注意:
1.续写词数应为 150 左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡相应位置作答。
A short while ago, we decided to return to the Maldives.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
So, I did it.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 A short while ago, we decided to return to the Maldives. My vacation plans involved lots of sun and sand. My son loves both the water and animals, and he was most excited about seeing sea creatures up close. Once when he set off with my husband to enjoy their on-the-water fun, I was left out in the cold, fearful and lonely. Mostly though, I worried that my son would think me weak. Or worse, stick to shore like me. It’s one thing to dislike swimming but trying a few easy activities while wearing a life jacket can’t be too bad, I thought.
So, I did it. I forced myself to take part in as many water-based activities as I could, including taking a dangerous family ocean ride on the “water sofa”, which had us holding a seat for dear life, while a motorboat pulled us with my son joyfully shouting, “Top speed!” while I joined in with cries of, “Please slow down!” Somehow, all I seem to recall from that trip is the look of happiness in my son’s eyes as he discovered a tiny sea creature in the shallows or held our hands tightly as we skimmed over the waves.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述了作者10岁时被朋友推到游泳池的经历让她发誓不再游泳,后来和丈夫去马尔代夫的浮潜经历让她发誓不再进行水上活动,有些人可能会认为一次性突发事件对人的影响会随着时间而消失,但作者坚持自己的观点,然而最近作者与丈夫和儿子一起去马尔代夫度假时的水上活动给作者留下了美好的回忆。
【详解】1.段落续写:

Wang Fang, a Suzhou native, has given her heart and soul to Kunqu Opera. Wang, who has twice won the Plum Performance Award — China’s top award for theater and opera performances-started to learn the traditional art form in 1977.
Born with a melodic voice, Wang loved to sing and dance when she was little. She performed frequently, and was recruited by the Suzhou Kunqu Opera Troupe (剧团) when she was in middle school. However, her parents refused the troupe’s invitation, insisting that she should concentrate on her studies and not drop out of school. After members of the troupe visited the parents repeatedly and showed great sincerity,Wang’s parents finally agreed.
Learning the traditional art form was never easy. She started to learn how to pronounce words, sing them lyrically and make gestures gently. As an actress playing martial artists roles at first, she had to spend extra time practicing kung fu movements. Years later, Wang used the word “unimaginable” to describe how hard the days were when she first learned Kunqu. She was soaked in sweat when practicing movements in summer, while in winter she often had chilblains (冻疮) on her hands when training in shabby classrooms with broken windows. “But I was young and determined at the time. No matter how difficult, I always got up early the next morning to practice,” Wang recalls.
Wang says she did not love Kunqu at first, but in her early 20s,when she watched the show Peony Pavilion performed by Zhang Jiqing, a master of the art form, it clicked. “I was shocked,” Wang says. “Her every movement was full of elegance and delicacy. Each of her lines and songs was perfect. I was overwhelmed by the beauty of Kunqu for the first time in my life, and it has stayed with me since.” Now, Wang has herself become a master of Kunqu. Her performances have impressed generations and helped to promote the art form among young people.
4. Why did Wang’s parents turn down the troupe’s invitation at first
A. They didn’t think Wang had artistic talent.
B. They saw no future in learning Kunqu Opera.
C. They didn’t want Wang to ignore her studies.
D. They regarded members of the troupe as insincere.
5 What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us
A. Wang has made great efforts to learn Kunqu well.
B. Artists should be given more attention and care.
C. Traditional culture needs to be further promoted.
D. Wang has played a key role in the development of Kunqu.
6. What changed Wang’s attitude towards Kunqu Opera
A. Winning the Plum Performance Award.
B. Joining the Suzhou Kunqu Opera Troupe.
C. Watching Zhang’s masterly performance.
D. Being greatly admired by the audience.
7. What does Wang’s story show us
A. It is never too late to learn. B. Rome was not built in a day.
C. Doing is better than saying. D. Don’t judge a book by its cover.
C
4D printing creates objects capable of rearranging themselves in response to environmental stimulation. Given that they change with time, the fourth dimension in 4D printing is time. Printing with a material that changes in response to its environment has been done before to create some objects that can grow or shrink, open or close. To do these changes, the objects needed to be placed underwater.
The new ink developed by Del Pozo will make reversible (可逆的) change possible in normal conditions. The ink itself is made with liquid crystals instead of the previously used shape-memory polymers or hydrogels (水凝胶). Shape-memory, polymers cannot reverse their form changes and hydrogels can only reverse their changes underwater.
“ What we didn’t yet have was a more flexible material, capable of reversing its shape-shifting in various environments in response to stimulation (刺激). Now, we can adapt liquid crystals in multiple ways. We can play with not only the chemical composition but also the molecular (分子的) arrangement,” said Del Pozo.
“ Thus, materials can be designed that are responsive to humidity (湿度) or temperature and whose movement can be controlled. And by combining materials with different functionalities, printed objects can be organized to form a communicating system,” Del Pozo continued.
The ink is also light-sensitive, which provides many possible applications for the technology in combination with the other stimulation. Del Pozo looks forward to the potential for soft robots and medical applications such as printable artificial eyes.
8. Why was previous 4D printing not satisfying
A. The process is too slow. B. It was too expensive to perform.
C. The materials are not stable. D. The objects must be underwater.
9. What made reversible change possible in normal conditions
A. The finding of a new material. B. The application of new printers.
C. The invention of a new ink. D. The use of a new printing method.
10. What does the last paragraph mainly about
A. The potential use of the new technology.
B. The development of the new technology.
C. The disadvantages of the new technology.
D. The working principle of the new technology.
11. What is the text
A. A travel guide. B. A news report.
C. A short story. D. A novel.
D
How often do you talk with someone How often do you find you can't remember his/her words Or, perhaps you get distracted (分心) while he/she is speaking and miss his/her messages. Nowadays, modern life is full of distractions: TVs, radios, telephones, and so on, which can make it difficult to listen attentively.
But how can we listen more effectively John Kabatzin, professor at the University of Massachusetts Medical School, put forward the idea of mindful(用心的)listening. He said mindfulness means paying attention in a special way, with a purpose, at the present moment and non-judgmentally(不评头论足地).
When we listen mindfully, we many have some difficulties but still remain open to the speaker's ideas and messages. Mindfulness encourages us to focus on the present moment, avoid distractions and ignore physical and emotional reactions(反应)to what people say.
But how can we apply mindful listening to our life John describes three key elements(要素)which can help improve our listening skills
First, be present. When we listen, focus on the speaker without distractions. Then cultivate the ability to understand others. When we develop it, we can understand a situation from someone else's point of view. Finally, listen to our own “cues”, such as the thoughts, feelings and physical reactions that we have when we feel anxious or angry.
The rule is simple: just “Listen”! Listen carefully and attentively. Pay full attention to the other person, and don't let other thoughts, like what we are going to say next, distract us.
12. What's the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To introduce the topic. B. To raise a question.
C. To show the influence of distractions. D. To describe daily situations.
13. What is one of the advantages of mindful listening
A. Making physical and emotional reactions. B. Sharing messages with the speaker.
C. Stopping distracting thoughts. D. Making sure of feeling understood.
14. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 5 refer to
A. The feeling of trusting others. B. The ability to put yourself in others’ shoes.
C. The ability to help others. D. The behavior of listening to others.
15. What can be the best title for the passage
A. Advantages of Mindful Listening B. Key Elements of Mindful Listening
C. A Research on Mindful Listening D. An Introduction of Mindful Listening

47. 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 a diffident 10-year-old I’d sworn (发誓) off swimming for life the day my friend pushed me into our neighbourhood pool. The incident only made me fear it more. So when my husband turned out to be a so-called ‘water baby’, it felt ironic to say the least. My husband belongs to the competitive swimmer, cliff jumper and extreme water-sport lover. Me I panic when the force of the shower is stronger than usual.
In those early days, we were both eager to please and forgive each other ‘sf avorite hobbies. For our honeymoon, we chose the Maldives-fashionable, beachy and romantic in equal measure. My husband knew about my aquaphobia (恐水症), but assumed its cause was a lack of experience in the water.
So, on the second day of our trip, bored of snorkelling (浮潜) by himself, he convinced me to sit backseat on a jet-ski while he drove. Five minutes later, the high-speed equipment upended and we went headfirst into the Indian Ocean. A sudden stillness as the water formed a wall overhead with only the sharp reflection of the sun providing light; shock, disorientation (迷失方向), panic; and finally, when our life jackets bounced us back to safety, a feeling of fast breathlessness and many pools of tears. My husband jumped back on the vehicle in a flash while attempting to keep me calm and pull me back on as well. Once back on firm ground, I swore off water activities for good.
Some might think a one-off sudden incident like this would, in time, fade from memory. But later trips and water meets only strengthened my standpoint. I madly prayed to the gods when our private houseboat met rough waters during a stay at Capri, Italy. And on a trip to a famous spa in the Himalayas, I laid the blame for this funny fear on a previous life where I’d drowned.
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。
A short while ago, we decided to return to the Maldives.
