主题1 乡村越野赛跑
(2022·新高考Ⅰ卷)It was the day of the big cross-country run. Students from seven different primary schools in and around the small town were warming up and walking the route(路线)through thick evergreen forest.
I looked around and finally spotted David, who was standing by himself off to the side by a fence. He was small for ten years ol D. His usual big toothy smile was absent today. I walked over and asked him why he wasn't with the other children. He hesitated and then said he had decided not to run.
What was wrong?He had worked so hard for this event!
I quickly searched the crowd for the school's coach and asked him what had happene D.“I was afraid that kids from other schools would laugh at him,” he explained uncomfortably.“I gave him the choice to run or not,and let him decide.”
I bit back my frustration(懊恼).I knew the coach meant well—he thought he was doing the right thing. After making sure that David could run if he wanted, I turned to find him coming towards me, his small body rocking from side to side as he swung his feet forwar D.
David had a brain disease which prevented him from walking or running like other children, but at school his classmates thought of him as a regular ki D. He always participated to the best of his ability in whatever they were doing.That was why none of the children thought it unusual that David had decided to join the cross-country team. It just took him longer—that's all.David had not missed a single practice,and although he always finished his run long after the other children,he did always finish.As a special education teacher at the school,I was familiar with the challenges David faced and was proud of his strong determination.
Paragraph 1:
We sat down next to each other,but David wouldn't look at me.____________________

Paragraph 2:
I watched as David moved up to the starting line with the other runners._____________

主题2 萨莉的足球赛
The football season was almost over. Sally had been playing football all summer. She really enjoyed running around with the other players in her bright orange uniform, chasing the black and white ball across the grassy fiel D. As much as she tried, though, Sally still had not scored one single goal.
Before each game, they had a practice session. The coach showed Sally and her team how to pass the ball to each other and take shots at the goal. Sally was pretty good at passing the ball, but even during practices, she couldn't kick the ball past the goalkeeper. She wondered if she should quit football and join a different clu C.
“Don't give up,” said the coach.But it was half-time,and Sally was feeling frustrate D.She was trying!Every time she got a chance to kick the ball,it would go in the wrong direction or a player from the other team would take control of it. She sipped at her cola and pouted(噘嘴).
The break was over and the referee blew his whistle to start the game again. The two teams walked back onto the field, both determined to win. Sally bent, tied up her shoelace and heard her mother whispering in her ear,“Stay focuse D. Keep your eyes on the ball.Look for an opportunity to get the ball.You can do it.”
Sally stood up and took a deep breath.Even if she didn't get one goal all summer,she knew that she had tried her best. That was something to be proud of. So she smiled at her mother and headed to her position.The whistle blew,and the game continue D.
The score was tied with one goal each.The green team was pretty good,but Sally's orange team was fast. The girls' ponytails bounced as they ran, with many feet kicking frantically (拼命地) at the ball when it came near them. It was a rather boring game and Sally's heart was no longer in it.
