II. 典例示范
Directions: Read the following passage. Summarize the main idea and the main
point(s) of the passage in no more than 60 words. Use you own words as far as
possible.
(A) When we wake up feeling sleepy and with dark circles under eyes, many of us
often think: “I'm going to go to bed earlier tomorrow!" But however determined we
are, chances are that we don't stick to (坚持) our promise. This behavior is called
"bedtime procrastination (拖延症)”.
(B) According to a study carried out by a group of health psychologists at Utrecht
University in the Netherlands in 2014, bedtime procrastination is a common
problem. In their study, 53 percent of the 2,400 participants said they didn’t follow
their sleep schedule, delaying it at least twice a week.
(C) It's found that they delayed bedtime not because they liked to stay up late, but
they couldn't stop doing other unimportant things, which were keeping them up in
the first place.
(D) "People who generally have trouble resisting temptations (诱惑) and sticking to
their intentions are more likely to delay going to bed." Floor Kroese, a psychologist
at Utrecht University, further explained to HuffPost.
(E) Yet, according to scientists, lack of self-control is not the only thing to blame.
Our body clock also plays an important role when it comes to bedtime. In order to
check the influence of the body clock on sleep, psychologists at Ulm University in
Germany studied the sleep patterns of 108 people in February. It was found that
those who get up late are more likely to postpone (推迟) their bedtime than those
who wake early every morning.
(F) "The intention to go to bed earlier is not enough," Jane Kuhnel, a psychologist at
Ulm University, concluded in Popular Science. "Biological processes need to
support this intention."
(G) People always think that bedtime procrastination isn’t a big problem, but as
Kroese told Popular Science, “the choices we make that affect our sleep could turn
out to be pretty important for our health.”

Sport tourism
Tourism is the world's largest industry and is predicted to grow well into the years to come. Increasingly, the economic
importance of tourism has been recognized by governments around the world. At the same time, the tourism industry has
become more complicated in its development and marketing new forms of tourism. One of the fastest growing parts of the
tourism industry is travel related to sport and physical activity. A recent survey found that while the traditional beach and sight-
seeing vacations continue to predominate, 22% of those surveyed reported that opportunities to participate in sports were
important when selecting a vacation.
The term sport tourism has been adopted in recent years to describe sport-related leisure travel. It is generally recognized
that there are three broad categories of sport tourism. The first category is watching sporting events or Sports Event Tourism,
including hallmark events such as FIFA World Cup Football Championships, and the Olympic games. Tournaments sponsored
by the Professional Golf Association or the World Tennis Association are also part of the spectator-centered sector of sport
tourism.
The second type of sport tourism, celebrity and nostalgia sport tourism involves visiting famous sports-related attractions.
Visits to the sports halls of fame fall into this category. Another form of celebrity and nostalgia sport tourism that has emerged in
recent years is meeting famous sports personalities. The cruise industry has been experienced in this area. Sports theme cruise
such as "the NBA basketball cruise" arranges for passengers to meet personalities from sports while they are on board.
Active participation is the third category of sport tourism. This is composed of individuals who travel to participate in golf,
skiing, and tennis in particular, although other sports such as fishing, and scuba diving are popular in the US.

范文一
Li Jiang and Su Hua are discussing what to wear when receiving the British students
next month. Li recommends the traditional Chinese dress while Su prefers the school
uniform.
I would be happy to wear traditional Chinese clothes at the welcome ceremony.
Firstly, this is precisely what the British visitors are expecting. They come to learn about
Chinese culture with their own eyes. Their Chinese peers in the typical Chinese dress
would be highly impressive. The school uniforms are fine, but not special enough to give a
unique Chinese flavour. Secondly, the inconvenience is not a problem if our purpose is to
share Chinese culture. It is just the so-called inconvenience that displays the richness,
delicacy and great fascination of Chinese culture with a history of thousands of years.
The traditional Chinese clothes, it seems to me, will make the occasion very Chinese
and inviting to the British guests.
范文讲解
范文二
Li Jiang and Su Hua don't agree on what to wear when greeting the British students.
Li suggests traditional Chinese clothes while Su thinks the school uniforms are more
suitable.
I prefer the school uniform to the traditional Chinese dress at the welcome
ceremony next month. Although the traditional Chinese dress may look more beautiful
and stylish, it is a little bit strange to walk around in it. We feel at ease in our school
uniforms every day. What's more, the traditional Chinese dress can't reflect the unique
culture of our school. From the design and colour of our uniforms, the British friends will
learn more about our school. Besides, the choice of the traditional Chinese dress means
extra money, and extra time, for we have to change it back after the event.
So the school uniforms are a better choice than the traditional Chinese dress for
such an occasion.

Recently, the State Administration of Cultural Heritage (SACH) issued a guidance to
open cultural heritage buildings to the public, encouraging local governments, cultural
heritage departments and organizations using or managing such buildings to better
bring these buildings' cultural and social value into play, on the precondition of full
protection. The SACH is clear that, no matter what their current conditions are, heritage
buildings should be opened as much as possible.
In the past, due to insufficient preserving technologies and lack of funds, repairing
work was seen as a major hassle, and thus opening the buildings to the public was
difficult. Even famous heritage places like the Palace Museum in Beijing were plagued by
such difficulties.
Today, China has dramatically increased its input into cultural heritage protection,

参考范文
With more input into cultural heritage protection, cultural heritage buildings to the
public are encouraged to be opened to the public to better bring these buildings'
cultural and social value into play.
I am in favour of this practice. The value of such buildings mainly lies in two aspects.
First, they are of archaeological significance; second, they inherit and spread traditional
culture and thus promote cultural transmission. If a heritage building is closed, only the
first aspect is made use of.
Only opening heritage buildings can fully display their social value, and to make
them so is the best way for us to show our respect for such buildings. Besides, opening
cultural heritage buildings to the public can best satisfy their demands for spiritual life,
thus benefiting the generations to come.
In short, opening cultural heritage buildings to the public is a win-win situation.
Only in this way can we inherit our cultural heritages better.

记叙文
A
【1】When Sarah Hansen first came to Bonnie Schlachte's ballet studio, she
jokingly called herself a "weeblewobble", telling her ballet teacher that when she
tried to walk, she would fall. "She couldn't walk across the room without holding on
to something," recalls Schlachte. "She would immediately fall."
【2】Hansen was only in middle-school, but a progressive neurological disease
was hindering her ability to walk, let alone do ballet. But Hansen had a tenacious
spirit and desperately wanted to learn ballet. Hansen joined in weekly group classes
at Schlachte's ballet studio called Ballet for all Kids, a studio that teaches children
with disabilities. Soon after she began classes and private lessons, her family saw a
vast improvement in her ability to move.

【3】She worked tirelessly in the studio, focusing on what her instructor wanted
from her. “At the time, her foot wouldn‘t fully rest on the floor,” explains Schlachte.
“That’s why she couldn‘t stand on her own, there was no support.” Schlachte pushed
her student, explaining to Hansen that her brain has neuroplasticity (可塑性) so
eventually it will receive the message.
【4】As a mom, a classically trained ballerina, and holding a degree in psychology,
Bonnie Schlachte was the perfect person to push Hansen to do her best. Schlachte
put herself through college with dance and theater scholarships. After graduation,
she came across an opportunity with children with developmental disabilities. She fell
in love and chose to focus on jobs in that field.
【5】Years later, Schlachte found herself watching and celebrating Hansen, who
at one point could barely walk, was now moving across the floor on her own two feet.
"One day, her ankle dropped, and she put her whole foot on the ground," says
Schlachte, "I was crying, her mom was crying, it was a great moment."

【1】Back in New York, I am in charge of development for a non-profit
organization called Robin Hood. When I'm not fighting poverty, I'm fighting fires as
the assistant captain of a volunteer fire company. Now in our town, where the
volunteers supplement a highly skilled career staff, you have to get to the fire scene
pretty early to get in on any action.
【2】I remember my first fire. I was the second volunteer on the scene. When I
found the captain, he was having a very engaging conversation with the homeowner,
who was surely having one of the worst days of her life. In the middle of the night,
she was standing outside in the pouring rain, in her pajamas, barefoot, while her

woman a pair of shoes." Not exactly what I was hoping for, but off I went — past the
'real' firefighters, who were pretty much done putting out the fire, into the bedroom
to get a pair of shoes. I knew I was no hero. A few weeks later, the department
received a letter from the homeowner.

C Tail Spin
【1】Two dolphins race around in a big pool in the Ocean Park. The smaller
dolphin Grace, shows off a few of her tricks, turning around and waving hello to the
crowd. The most amazing thing about her, however, is that she's even swimming at all.
She doesn't have a tail.
【2】Grace lost her tail as a baby when she got caught up in a fish trap. When
the dolphin arrived at the Ocean Park in December 2005, she was fighting for her life.
"Is she going to make it?" Her trainer, Abbey Stone, feared the worst. Grace did make
it — but her tail didn't. She ended up losing her flukes and the lower part of her
peduncle.
【3】Over the past six years, she has learned to swim without her tail. Dolphins
swim by moving their flukes and peduncle up and down. Grace taught herself to
move another way — like a fish! She pushed herself forward through the water by
moving her peduncles from side to side.
精讲精练
记叙文
【4】The movement put harmful pressure on Grace's backbone. So a company
offered to create a man-made tail for her. The tail had to be strong enough to stay on
Grace as she swam but soft enough that it wouldn't hurt her.
【5】The first time Grace wore the artificial tail, she soon shook it off and let it
sink to the bottom of the pool. Now, she is still learning to use the tail. Some days she
wears it for an hour at a time, others not at all. "The new tail isn't necessary for her to
feel comfortable," says Stone, "but it helps to keep that range of motion (动作) and
build muscles (肌肉).“
【6】Now, the dolphin is about to get an even happier ending. This month, Grace
will star in Dolphin Tale, a film that focuses on her rescue and recovery. Her progress
has inspired more than just a new movie. Many people travel from near and far to
meet her. Seeing Grace swim with her man-made tail gives people so much courage.

【1】Weaving hammocks is an art that takes a sharp eye, a skilled hand and lots of
patience. But in Lenwood Haddock's case, being blind works to his advantage. His
trained, sensitive hands are acutely aware of every step of the process. Since beginning
his craft in 1986, Lenwood has woven about 145, 000 perfect hammocks.
【2】Lenwood lost his sight in 1973, at age 18, during a hunting accident. "My
whole working career has been blind," he says. He first found a job as a woodworker,
but when that organization closed, the North Carolina Division of Services for the Blind
connected him with Hatteras Hammocks. On his first day of work, "I did a total of one
hammock," Lenwood recalls, laughing. "And then I came home and lay down to sleep. I
lift weights, but I wasn't as tough as I thought until I started weaving. It takes a lot of
energy, and you're standing up all day."
【3】In time, however, Lenwood found he had a knack (窍门) for the job. At first
he worked on-site at the company, but after a year Lenwood moved his operation to the
home workshop where he had worked for 10 years during his woodworking days.
实战演练
【4】There, he creates dozens of hammocks each week from ropes in a variety of
sizes. One day, he realized the step counter on his phone recorded him walking eight
miles without ever leaving his shop.
【5】The process of weaving a hammock involves making and catching hundreds of
loops (环). A single missed stitch (织针) creates a hole that can widen and make the
hammock uncomfortable or even dangerous to use. Experienced weavers miss loops
sometimes, but to his company's knowledge, Lenwood has never turned in a hammock
with even one dropped stitch. Lenwood's skilled fingers are quick to catch and fix any
mistakes.
【6】The company has acquired other brands and changed its name to The
Hammock Source. Today, it is the world's largest maker and seller of hammocks, all built
by hand.
【7】However, Lenwood's routine has changed little. He works his fingers back and
forth across the rows, looping the rope and pulling it. With every hammock, Lenwood
presents himself a perfect product. "I'm not sure how sighted people do it," he admits.

When I was 8 years old, I once decided to run away from home. With my suitcase 36
and some sandwiches in a bag, I started for the front door and said to Mom, “I’m leaving.”
“If you want to 37 , that’s all right,” she said. “But you came into this home without
anything and you can leave the same way.” I 38 my suitcase and sandwiches on the
floor heavily and started for the door again.
“Wait a minute,” Mom said. “I want your 39 back. You didn’t wear anything when you
arrived.” This really angered me. I tore my clothes off—shoes, socks, underwear and
all—and 40 , “Can I go now?” “Yes,” Mom answered, “but once you close that door, don’t
expect to come back.” I was so 41 that I slammed (砰地关上) the door and stepped
out on the front porch.
