Dad, a kind but very strict man, was always full of advice. One of the biggest lessons he taught me one summer was about having a strong work ethic（道德规范）. When my brother and I were growing up, we mowed（除草） yards during the summer to 1 pocket money.
Every time we headed out to work, Dad was there to 2 . I used to wonder 3 he came with us. He stood watching us work in the 4 weather when he could have been inside relaxing with air conditioning.
One day, we were cutting our next-door neighbor’s 5 . She always waited until the grass was knee-high to call us over. That afternoon, I was just about to finish the work when I saw Dad pointing to some grass. I 6 the little money I was getting paid for cutting grass so high that it almost broke the mower. I didn’t answer him and kept walking 7 . Dad called me out, “You missed a piece.” I felt a little 8 , hoping he would go home. He kept pointing. So 9 and upset, I went back to cut that piece of grass. I said to myself: “That one piece isn’t 10 anyone. Why won’t he just let it go?”
But 11 I reached to be an adult, I understood his message: When you’re running a 12 , the work you do says a great deal about you.
The lesson my dad taught me stayed with me: be 13 . If you say you are going to perform a job 14 a certain time, keep your word. Give your friends the kind of service that 15 would like to have. It shows how honest you are and how much pride you take in your work.

二、阅读理解（16分）（2018·湖州市南浔区模拟）
Millions of Chinese have been playing a mobile game called Travel Frog recently. You play as the “mother” of a frog who lives alone and enjoys traveling. You need to prepare food and tools for his trips. The frog will send you postcards while he is away.
The game’s popularity may have something to do with how lonely people are these days, according to the Xinhua News Agency. Many players have said that the lonely frog is just like them. But playing with the frog helps them forget their loneliness（孤独） for a short time.
Loneliness seems to be a common problem today. According to The Guardian（《卫
9
报》）, about 40 percent of American adults say they’re lonely. And in the UK, about one in every five people in the country is “always or often lonely”, The Telegraph（《电讯报》） reported.
This might be why the UK government declared（宣布） the country’s very first “Minister of Loneliness” in January. The minister’s job is to find ways to help UK citizens feel less lonely. The minister’s office will provide more money for activities that connect people together.
This loneliness problem may be partly due to social media. When we see pictures of friends having fun or posting selfies（自拍） without us, we may compare their “perfect” lives with our own and feel upset and lonely.
But we should remember that no one is destined（注定） to be lonely. As UK poet John Donne once wrote, “No man is an island, entire of itself; every man is a piece of the continent（陆地）, a part of the main.”
（ ）1. What do players do while playing Travel Frog?
A. Build houses for their frogs.
B. Write postcards to their frogs.
C. Choose places for their frogs to travel.
D. Prepare food and tools for their frogs’ trips.
（ ）2. The purpose of introducing Travel Frog is to__________ .
A. tell us how to play this game
B. lead in more popular games
C. tell us how popular this game is
D. lead in the problem of loneliness
（ ）3. To deal with loneliness, Minister of Loneliness__________ .

A. designed the game Travel Frog
B. found ways to get people together
C. reported the problem in the newspaper
D. stopped people from using social media
（ ）4. What does the last paragraph mean?
A. In fact, we are not lonely.
B. Loneliness is a big problem.
C. Everyone should live the way he likes.
D. It is no use comparing ourselves with others.
