书面表达
1. One possible version:
Dear Peter,
I’m glad to hear that you’re interested in our school’s tug of war. I’m writing to give a brief account of it.
Aimed to enrich our school life and build up our body, an exciting tug of war match was held on the playground last Friday. 25 students, selected from each class on behalf of their class, pulled on each side while the rest of the students acted as cheerleaders. All the students took an active part in it. The activity was highly spoken of, because not only did it provide a chance for us to exercise, but also it made us become a more united team.
Keep in touch!
Yours,

1. One possible version:
Paragraph 1:
“What if I make a little bicycle out of clay (黏土)and she can trade it for a real one later?" my husband Ron thought.He also wrote a note that she could trade it for a real bike. "This is an expensive item and she is 'such a big girl,' it would be much better for her to pick it out." he thought. So he spent the next four hours painstakingly (尽心地) working with clay to make a tiny bike. Finally, his face expanded with a satisfied smile when he finished it.
Paragraph 2:
On Christmas morning, we were excited for Almie to open the package with the clay bike. Almie’s heart raced when she opened it and found the note. "Does this mean that I will trade this bike that Daddy made me for a real one?" Smiling, I said, "Yes." With tears in her eyes, she replied, "I could never trade in this beautiful bicycle that Daddy made me. I'd rather keep this than get a real bike." At that moment, we were too amazed to hear her response and her father hugged her tightly.

【36题详解】A
上句提到白噪音的基本定义。后一句说到白噪音常被推荐为睡眠和学习的辅助。所以中间这句应该是被推荐的原因。A答案中的it指的是白噪音。

本段讲的是关于白噪音在学习方面的研究。前一句是说教师觉得在安静的房间里学习学生可以集中注意力。C答案中的they指的是学生。后面两句是推荐音乐或电视来帮助集中注意力，但也被否定。最后是提出白噪音这种方法来帮助学习。

Text 10（194词）地铁
W: Study the faces of the subway riders, and you’ll see what it means to live in a city. They are all traveling in a busy world that exists under another busy world. The New York subway is one of the oldest public transportation systems in the world ---⑱ it has been underneath this city for 110 years now, and I’ve been riding it for half that time.⑲ When I was a kid, there wasn’t any fear --- only adventure. I would stand at the window of the front car and dream through the great network of tunnels, watching the red and green lights go by. A subway is like a secret, a child’s game. You go in one hole and you come out another. You move fast --- much faster than a taxi, or walking or running.⑳ Years ago, a woman named Rosie Ruiz tried to steal a victory in the New York marathon by taking a subway to the finish line. Rosie was right. The subway was faster. I think what people like most about the subway, apart from basic transportation, still comes from the magic feeling of rushing around fast in a train underground.
