答案： Dear Linda,
I'm delighted to share with you an exciting initiative we've launched at our school — "Greenery in Every Classroom".
The project kicked off with each class selecting a variety of plants to cultivate. We began with a special planting session where students enthusiastically potted seeds and saplings. The subsequent weeks were filled with a shared responsibility as we watered and nurtured our tiny green friends. This hands-on experience with nature has not only brightened our classrooms but also sparked a genuine interest in botany and environmental conservation. The initiative has been met with widespread enthusiasm and even made the headlines in the local newspaper.
I'm eager to hear your thoughts on this project. Your insights would be greatly appreciated.
Yours,
Li Hua

第二节 (满分25分)
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。
Mary was the art teacher for primary school students. On this particular day, she was guiding them through the process of drawing a scenic landscape. Akila yawned (打哈欠), clearly disinterested — drawing wasn't her thing. A small group of students gathered around Tina, laughing at her unusual drawing: a sun sporting sunglasses and trees topped with ice cream cones.
Mary instructed Tina firmly but with unease, “Draw it the way I showed you.” As the lesson continued, doubt crept into Mary's mind. Had the joy of creativity been overshadowed by the pressure to fit in? She scanned the room, observing her students' faces — some concentrated, others uncertain. Akila's disinterest was clear and Tina's imaginative drawing had been met with ridicule instead of praise.
After class, Mary sat down with Tina, her tone softening, “Why did you draw the sun with sunglasses and the trees with ice creams?” she asked gently.
Tina's eyes sparkled with a touch of rebellion (叛逆) — “I love ice cream, and I thought the sun would look cool with sunglasses. Why do we always have to draw like everyone else?”
Mary paused, her thoughts racing. Tina's drawings weren't just curious — they were a window into a world where imagination ruled and where rules could be bent into delightful chaos. Was she, by enforcing a rigid style, killing that very creativity?
The next morning, Mary walked into the classroom with a renewed sense of purpose. She placed a large sheet of paper in front of the class and announced a new project: they would create a collective(集体的) artwork titled “Our Dream World” with no rules. They were free to use colors, shapes, and patterns however they wished.
At first, the students hesitated, unsure of this newfound freedom. Akila leaned back, skeptical of what seemed like another pointless exercise. But Tina, her creativity no longer restricted, eagerly grabbed her crayons and began to draw with abandon. Then, Maya joined in. And then Michael...

答案： As the students worked, Mary observed them with curiosity. She noticed how Akila, initially disinterested, had quietly chosen vibrant colors and was now blending them together to create a swirling sky filled with fantastical creatures that flew over a stone castle. Meanwhile, Tina was enthusiastically adding playful details to her section of the paper — a whimsical garden where flowers wore hats and creatures rested on the ice cream-topped trees. Mary felt a wave of relief wash over her. The room was alive with chatter and laughter, as Akila and Tina frequently exchanged ideas and inspired one another. It was wonderful to see them cooperate, their initial differences melting away in the warmth of shared creativity.
Mary stood back and surveyed the creation. The enormous canvas had transformed into a magnificent portrayal of each student's imagination, forming a breathtaking landscape that reflected their individuality yet spoke to their collective spirit. Mary felt a sense of pride swell within her. She realized that in letting go of rigid structures, her students gave their painting an unrealistic but dream-like quality. Akila, Tina, and the rest of the class had not only embraced their own creative paths but had also nurtured each other's ideas. They were thrilled, "It was the best painting ever! We should definitely hang it on the wall!" Inspired by the moment, Mary decided to host an exhibition of their dream world, inviting parents and other classes to admire the beauty of imagination unleashed in her classroom.
