A. Choose the best answer(根据短文内容,选择最恰当的答案): ( 12分)
He was just an ordinary postman. Day after day, he shuttled(穿梭) back and forth across the village. For him, life was without waves.
One day, he was delivering mail as usual. When he looked up in the sky, he suddenly lost his balance. It was a little stone that tripped him up(绊倒). He observed the stone that had embarrassed(难堪) him, finding it strange but beautiful. In his eyes, this stone was like a lost jewel(宝石) covered with dust. The postman then placed the stone in his bag carefully. Because of this stone’s arrival,
his day was lightened. He suddenly had a bold thought—I can build a castle with such beautiful stones. How magnificent it will be!
His ordinary life started to be different since then. He still delivered mail, but he collected every stone he could find along the way. All those dusty stones, in his eyes, glittered like diamonds.
Gradually, his small bag couldn’t hold his stones anymore and he needed to use a wheelbarrow to carry them. People didn’t understand what happened when they saw the postman delivering letters with a wheelbarrow full of stones.
After collecting enough stones, he started to build his castle. During the daytime, he passed along the dreams of others; and during the nighttime, he built his own dream. No one was willing to join in. But the postman was unmoved, still happily building his castle. Because he knew, the dream and the castle only belonged to him.
After 20 years of working day and night, the postman’s dream castle was finally completed. It was a magnificent castle just as he had imagined. It was a miracle arising from the ordinary.
This is a real story. The postman’s name is Xue Waller. The stone castle has become a famous tourist attraction in France, which is called“ ideal palace of Ferdinand Cheval.”At the entrance of the stone castle, there is a sentence—“I want to know how far a dream stone can go.”

D. Answer the questions(根据短文内容回答下列问题): ( 12分)
What is it like being a film star? What is it like n front of the camera? Students from Steamboat Spring Middle School in the US could tell you exactly what it’s like. They recently got a taste of the life of a star.
A local movie company wanted to produce a film. All the actors in this film were to be students. Fourteen students were chosen from the school. The film, called Ruby vs Wolfgang, was based on the story of little Red Riding Hood(小红帽). It came with a twist(改变), however---the story was told from the perspective(看法) of the wolf.
Zoe Walsh, a seventh-grader, signed up to do behind- the- scenes work. But she soon found herself in front of the camera instead. She played a strange middle school student in the film.
“It is just for fun,” she told the Steamboat Today. “Just pretending that you’re someone else.”
But there were also difficulties. It was very cold during shooting. Students had to put up with snow and icy wind.
Lack(缺乏) of experience was another problem. The director Michael Staley said he tried to “help each student bring out the wolf ---or Whatever animal they representing---in themselves”
Erus Harrington, an eighth---grader, said he played a “nice, silly British guy”. He learned the British accent(口音) all at home.
“I just a kind of taught myself how to do it by watching videos,” he said “It makes me feel good after I do it because I’m proud of myself.”
The students will watch themselves on the big screen for the first time during the film festival at a local high school in May.
“I’m probably going to laugh at myself,” said Zach, the brother of Zoe.
88. Fourteen students were chosen as actors in this film, weren’t they?
Yes,they were。
89. Who did Walsh play in the film?
She played a strange middle school student in the film。
90. What were the two main problems for the actors?
Weather and lack of experience。
91. How did Harrington learn the British accent?
By watching videos
92. Where will the students see the film acted by themselves on the big screen for the first time ?
At a local high school
93. What do the students think of being a film star after they got a taste of the life of a star according to the passage? (At least two different opinions)
It is fun but difficult。
94. Write a passage of at least 60 words on the topic “A difficult choice I had to make.”(以“一个艰难的选择”为题写一篇不少于60个词的短文,标点符号不占格。)
(注意:短文中不得出现考生的姓名、校名及其他相关信息,否则不予评分。)
Using the following points as a reference.(以下问题供参考)
1. Have you ever had a difficult choice to make?
2. What made it so difficult for you?
3. What was your final decision?
4. Do you think it is a right decision?
【写作分析】本篇作文从题目的提示中可以看出整篇文章应该以记叙文为主,时态上要注意选取过去时,最后自我总结部分进行议论,用一般现在时即可。本文在写作时根据提示进行论述,思路会比较清晰。根据“选择是什么”—“难以选择的原因”+“选择过后的自我总结”。此类记叙文在本次二模和三模的各区模考中比较常见,例如“A problem I have solved”要加强对于学生行文时态转换的注意。
【范文】
Our lives are the sum of all our choices. The decisions we make today, may very well play a critical role in our future tomorrow. When I was thirteen, my mother always wanted me a girl who was good at school work. However, I was keen on playing the drum a lot and didn’t like study at all, which was not allowed by her. As a result, we quarreled with each other a lot. As time passed by, I gradually found that one should be knowledgeable, no matter what he would be in the future. I decided to work hard and regarded playing the drum as my hobby. Knowledge is power, and I think the choice I’ve made must be wise one.
