参考范文
In recent years，it has been noticed that the number of people watching short videos is
significantly increasing.
The main reason behind the popularity of short videos is that people don’t have enough time
to watch long ones because they’re so busy with their work and study.Besides，short videos
contain information which is easy to understand.However，the accuracy of the information can’t
be guaranteed and if people are absorbed in thousands of short videos they will waste much time.
From my point of view，watching short videos can be efficient but we should set a time
limit.Moreover，we must be cautious about the content due to its occasional inaccuracy.
Ⅱ.读后续写(宠物情缘)
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。
Dora is a sevenyearold girl.One day，when she visited Alice’s house she saw a beautiful
bird in a cage on the balcony of the house.Alice told her it was her new pet.“How beautiful it
is！” said Dora.“I also want to have such a bird as my pet.”
That day when Dora returned home，she told her mother about Alice’s bird.Then she
asked，“Mom，can I also get a bird？” “Of course，you can，” said her mother.“But you
need to wait because I’ve no time to visit a pet store these days.” Dora agreed.One day，when
Dora was back home from school，she saw a cage in the living room.In the cage was a beautiful
blue bird.Her mother was standing next to the cage，smiling.“Oh，a bird！” Dora shouted
happily.She ran to it and looked at it happily.“It’s a birthday gift for you，” said her
mother.“Thank you，Mom.I love it so much！” said Dora excitedly.
The following day，Dora invited her friends to come over to see her bird.All of her friends
said it was a really beautiful bird and Dora was very glad to hear that.She and her friends played
with the bird for a long time that day.Her friends all wished they could have such a bird as their pet.
Sadly，a few weeks later Dora became sick.The doctor told her parents that she got the flu
and had to stay at home.In order not to make her friends sick，her parents asked her friends not tocome to play with her.Dora felt very sad.How she wished her friends would come and visit her! But
she knew her parents were right.She’d better stay alone.Since Dora had no one to play with，she
could only play with her bird.However，she felt that her bird didn’t seem to be happy either.

Dora watched her bird in silence.She found her bird kept looking out of the window.In the
trees outside，many birds were playing gladly.She thought that perhaps her bird didn’t like being
kept in the cage at all.Just as she missed staying with her friends，it also wanted to go out to play
like other birds.But before she got sick，she didn’t think a lot about her bird.Now Dora realized
she shouldn’t selfishly take away its freedom for her own enjoyment.
She decided to let go of the bird.When her mother came inside，Dora told her mother about
her decision.She said，“Mom，can you set my bird free？” Her mother was surprised and
asked why.“I’m sure it also wants friends，” said Dora.Her mother agreed.She opened the
cage and the bird cheerfully flew out of the window and disappeared soon.A few days later，Dora
could play with her friends again.How excited she was! And when she looked out at the birds in the
trees，she knew her bird must be very happy at that moment.
