（2021·上海嘉定·九年级期末）
Most 15-year-old teenagers are worrying about their math homework and trying to fit in with other kids of
their age. But Henry Patterson is busy running a successful online business instead.
Patterson, a teenager from England, began to have this idea when he was nine. One year later, he started a
company called Not Before Tea. He began by selling sweets, but soon turned to household products like wash
bags and soft toys. The items he sell feature （ 以 … 为 特 色 ） characters from a book he wrote called The
Adventures of Sherb and Pip.
Patterson’s early school years were difficult, as he showed great difference from his peers （同辈人）. He
saw the world differently and was rarely invited to parties or play with. He also had a stammer（口吃），which
made him feel even more lonely.
But these things didn’t hold him back. To cheer himself up, Patterson gradually immersed （ 使 … 沉
浸 ） himself in designing different animals and writing interesting stories about them. His character started to
become popular. He tried very hard to express himself clearly and talk to bigger audience. His business has earned
him 65,000 pounds and he won big prize at the National Retail Business Awards for Teenagers.
On top of this, he does his best to keep his schoolwork as a priority（优选项）. He takes his homework with
him to events and does it on the train or after a presentation.
Two years ago, he wrote a book called Young and Mighty. It describes his search for success and happiness.
“ The real point of the book is to help people of my age think about how to make their way in the

the academic (学术)," she says. "But the campus is so beautiful. I walk around just to relax."
Alejandro Vega, a banker in New York City, jogs almost every evening after work in Central Park. "I never
get bored. The park is so big. It's a public space, yet it can feel completely private."
Niagara Falls was on Ross Howard's list of places to visit in upstate New York. "There are these wonderful

（2022·上海徐汇·九年级期末）Choose the best answer（根据以下内容，选择最恰当的答案）

we made a trip to the cinema.
It was dark and was raining hard. With the headlights shining on the road, we saw something ahead of us.
Johnny pulled to a stop and I came out, ran to the grass and grabbed a small, wet, frightened creature. It was

go home. We thought it was a baby rabbit because it had long ears, long hind legs and was greyish brown in color.
Once home, we filled a box with old newspaper and a warm towel. We fed it milk and bread and hoped it would
survive. We named our new animal Bobsy. We all loved it at first sight.
Our boys were happy with the little animal and it seemed to enjoy all the attention. Sadly though, on the third
day with us, it caught its back foot in a door and we quickly realized it was broken. We rushed to the vet, who
said, “It’s only a rabbit, I’ll put it to sleep.” Our response was a very decisive, “No way!”
