Dear Mike,
It’s great to hear from you. I feel proud knowing your interest in Chinese literature.
The set phrase you asked me means trying to help seedlings grow by pulling them up. There is a story behind it. A man in the Song State was so anxious about the slow growth of his seedlings that he pulled them upward one by one to help the seedlings grow much taller all at once. Without doubt, all of the seedlings dried up and died. This set phrase means that growing against the law of development in things and being over-anxious for quick results will make things worse.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Yours,
Li Hua

Should Yuanmingyuan Be Rebuilt?
Yuanmingyuan, “Garden of all gardens”, was burnt and fell into ruins in 1860. Recently my classmates had a discussion about whether it should be rebuilt or not.
Supporters say only by doing so can we see the original sight of the garden, which reflects the Chinese civilization(文明). If partly rebuilt, it will provide a comparison and help us remember the history.
Those who disagree think it more reasonable to keep the garden like this. The ruins will remind us of the past. We should never forget the history. Some also worry that the environment will be destroyed when the construction goes on in this district.
Personally, it is advisable to rebuild Yuanmingyuan, which will add beauty to the city. What’s more, the new scenic spot will no doubt promote the economic development of the local area.

Dear Sir or Madam,
I’m writing to complain about the jacket which I bought from your website. This morning I received the jacket on time. I regret to say that there’s something wrong with it.
Firstly, I’m pretty sure I asked you to send me a purple one. The moment the mail box arrived, I couldn’t wait to open it, only to find a red one. To make things worse, I need a size 170-88A while you sent me a size 175-92B, which is too large for me. Were I in it, I would be a clown. And it is of such bad quality—the zipper doesn’t work at all!
My concern is whether you will return me the money or have the jacket replaced and I wonder who will pay the postage.
I am looking forward to your early reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua

Hello, everyone!
It is my great honor to give you a speech on “How to Prepare Yourself for Senior Three School Life?” As far as I am concerned, there are three important aspects that you need to focus on throughout the last year of your senior high school life.
First of all, every second counts for Senior Three students. Setting a future goal helps you keep focused and stick to what really matters. Secondly, as our school life is becoming more and more challenging, not only must you work hard to acquire as much knowledge as possible, but you also have to foster efficient and effective learning methods and habits which will benefit you a lot in your study. What’s more, getting actively involved in class and reviewing what has been taught /what you have learnt after class are really beneficial to you.
Last but not least, working out every day and having a balanced diet can ensure your health./gurantee you good health. As an old saying goes, “Health is the best wealth”. Without good health, you could do nothing well. I believe we all can achieve our dream as long as we make enough preparations. Everyone, let’s take action now! Live our Senior Three school life to the fullest!
That’s all. Thank you!

3．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。
My father asked me to chat with him for a while. Actually, I was unwilling to listen to his talking endlessly as he always did. My father was a lawyer, but I never wanted to go to law school or follow his path through life.
As was expected, he cleared his throat and started to say, “Er... What... What do you really want to do in the gorgeous(灿烂的) future?”
I was silent for a moment playing with the cell phone. I kept thinking, “Should I tell him my true thoughts? What if he gets angry? What if I let him down?” later I replied, “Well, I want to be a writer.”
I guessed this may be not the answer he would expect. But surprisingly, “Interesting idea!” he answered. I was shocked, speaking in a low voice with hesitation.
“Are you serious, dad?”
“Well, you need confidence and good preparations, and you still have plenty of time. You need to find out what you really enjoy now. Look, it’s late. Let’s take the boat out tomorrow morning, just you and me. Maybe we can catch some crabs (螃蟹) for dinner, and we can talk more.”
Early next morning we packed up the equipment and set off for the coast. We didn’t talk much, but enjoyed the sound of the seabirds and the sight of the coastline.
There were no big waves and blinding sunlight at that time. “Let’s see if we are lucky,” he said, picked up a web basket with a rope tied and threw it into the sea. We waited a while, then my father stood up and said, “Give me a hand with this,” and we pulled up the crab cage onto the deck.
To our joy, the cage was filled with dozens of soft shell crabs. Squatting (蹲) down, we watched them for a moment. At first they fought against each other to climb out hard, trying to escape. Many were pulled back into the cage. Later, some gave up, but there were still some crabs trying to escape again and again.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
At that moment, my father pointed to the cage, “Look at that crab, there!”
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
From that day on, I was determined to make my dream come true
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【参考范文】
At that moment my father pointed to the cage, “Look at that crab, there!” Staring at the crab, I found that every time he wanted to escape, he was pulled back into the cage. However, he didn"t give up his fight. Fortunately, he survived from the struggle eventually. Shocked and amazed, I suddenly understood why my father had suggested catching crabs that morning. I thought the future would be filled with many possibilities. Everyone would need to find out what he enjoyed and held on to it.
From that day on, I was determined to make my dream come true. Besides my devotion to school work, I spent all my spare time making full preparations for becoming a writer. Reading, collecting materials and writing made my life busy but fulfilled, which laid a good foundation for me. Meanwhile, I contributed to literature journals. Gradually, some achievements as a writer increased my confidence. I always think of the crab whenever faced with difficulties. What my father said also encouraged me on my way to success. Now I am grateful for sticking to the thing I truly dreamed of.

4．阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。
“However, it is a little bit early to say that China’s e-commerce battlefield is moving to rural China,” said Chen Tao, a senior analyst. Unlike urban residents, most rural Chinese haven’t experienced e-commerce shopping. While that provides online platforms with one of the least undeveloped markets for e-commerce, progress has been slow due to the lack of infrastructure（基础设施）and logistics（物流）support.
Another inhibiting factor in the development of rural e-commerce is the income gap. In 2018, annual per capita disposable income（人均可支配收入）in rural areas was 14,600 yuan compared with 39,300 yuan in cities. “Lower disposable incomes in rural areas limit the consumption,” said analyst Chen. It also takes time to educate rural residents to accept e-commerce services as most of them are new to online shopping. There is still a long way to go to popularise online shopping in rural China.’’
【参考范文】
China’s e-commerce giants, Alibaba Group and JD. com, are competing for the rural market, as the growing rural Internet population boosts online sales. However, lacking necessary infrastructure and logistics support, the market of rural China develops slowly. To handle that problem, relevant measures are taken respectively to promote service and sales. Still, there remains much to be done, considering the low income and the time needed to generalise online shopping in rural areas.
【写作分析】
本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍说，随着越来越多的农村网民推动在线销售，中国的电子商务巨头阿里巴巴集团和京东网正在争夺农村市场。然而，由于缺乏必要的基础设施和物流支持，中国农村市场发展缓慢。针对这一问题，分别采取了相应的措施来促进服务和销售。尽管如此，考虑到农村地区的低收入和普及网上购物所需的时间，仍有许多工作要做。
【详解】
1 要点摘录
①Shoppers like Li Yuhua are the new target for China’s e-commerce giants, including Alibaba Group, which operates the Taobao platform, and JD. com.
②Rural China added 3 million more Internet users in the first half the year, bringing the total number to 225 million, or 26. 3% of the country’s total Internet population of 854 million, according to a report on rural e-commerce development released last week by the China International Electronic Commerce Network.
③While that provides online platforms with one of the least undeveloped markets for e-commerce, progress has been slow due to the lack of infrastructure（基础设施）and logistics（物流）support.
④To address that problem, one of China’s largest e-commerce operators, JD. com hired more deliverymen and tested drone（无人机）delivery services to improve service in rural China.
⑤Alibaba Group, China’s largest e-commerce player, announced in April last year that it had invested $717 million in Huitongda Network Co. Ltd, which helps to boost sales in 15,000 towns across 18 provinces.
⑥ There is still a long way to go to popularise online shopping in rural China.
2.缜密构思
将第3、6两个要点进行重组，将第1、2和4、5几个要点进行整合。
3.遣词造句
