七、阅读短文，回答问题(10分)
For most people, having things stolen（被偷）feels like a wrong act. Robbie Pruitt said
that he got mad when he found out someone took his mountain bike. But soon his feelings
changed. He began to feel sorry for those who couldn't even afford a bike.
For Pruitt, a big fan of biking, the first thing to do was to buy a new one. But when he
went bike shopping, he found many bikes were far too expensive. Moreover, many people
couldn't find right places to have their bikes repaired.
With that thought in mind, Pruitt came up with a plan and posted it on the community
website. He offered to fix bikes for free for anyone who needed it. He also asked for unwanted
bikes, which he would repair—again for free.
As soon as the plan was posted, Pruitt received thirty used bicycles. Then came more than
500 messages for detailed information. By the end of the year, Pruitt had repaired more than
140 for donation or to be returned to their owners. Pruitt tries to give his donations to families
that can't afford bikes.
Pruitt doesn't just provide bikes—he also helps kids in his neighbourhood learn how to fix
their own bikes. The kids have got a sense of achievement（成就）. "It's a really great
experience for kids," said a neighbour. "Pruitt is certainly providing a service but it's not just
the bikes. It's the relationships in the community. It's the influence he can make on people."

答案：八、 Hello, everyone. Looking back to the life in the past year, I think I have changed a lot
and made great progress in many ways.
First, in the past I seldom read books. But now I like reading because good books help
me relax after a busy day.
Second, I always dropped litter carelessly everywhere. But now I have realized the
importance of protecting the environment. I always throw the litter into the rubbish bins.
Third, I used to shout loudly or jump the line in public. Now, I can behave politely in
public and I often give my seat to someone in need on the bus.
Fourth, I cared little about others. But now I offer to donate some of my pocket money
and my books to Project Hope.
I'm sure I will do better and better in Grade 9. Thanks for listening!

首先，明确题目要求从学习、环保、礼仪、爱心四个方面谈过去一年的收获与变化，需采用“过去-现在”对比的方式展现成长。第一步，确定演讲稿主体结构，用First、Second等连接词分四点阐述，让逻辑清晰；第二步，为每个方面选择合适的对比表达，比如学习方面用“不爱读书”和“喜欢读书”对比，环保方面用“乱扔垃圾”和“自觉投放垃圾”对比；第三步，控制词数在90左右，语言要简洁地道，符合演讲稿的口语化风格，同时紧扣主题。
【解析】
1. 结构搭建：采用总分结构，开头结尾已给出，主体部分用First、Second、Third、Fourth衔接，分四个要点依次阐述学习、环保、礼仪、爱心的变化，层次分明。
2. 时态运用：描述过去状态用一般过去时或used to结构，如“I seldom read books”“I used to shout loudly”；描述现在状态用一般现在时，如“I like reading”“I behave politely”，清晰体现变化。
3. 内容填充：每个要点紧扣“收获与变化”，结合学生生活实际举例，比如学习上从不爱读书到通过读书放松，礼仪上从公共场合不文明到主动让座，内容真实具体。
4. 语言润色：使用地道实用的词汇，如“realize the importance”“donate...to Project Hope”，确保语言流畅自然，符合词数要求。
