A(2025·江苏盐城阜宁县期中)
I had a dream yesterday. My classmates and I were enjoying ourselves in the playground. Some of us were playing basketball and running, and o 1 were just talking. We were happy without w 2 about our study.
Suddenly, my alarm woke me up, and it was time to get up. A n 3 day started. For a boy in middle school, studying takes up most of my time.
My real dream is a simple one. I wish I could have some time for m 4 every day. I want to have a short rest and dream about what I'd like to be when I g 5 up. It's just like seeing an island after a long, tiring j 6 at sea. I don't want to become a boring boy, studying all the time without any time to play.
L 7, our teachers and parents start to understand us now. After working hard for a long time, our teachers will let us go o 8 and breathe(呼吸) the fresh air. My parents also love me and stand b 9 me. They sometimes take me out for a meal or to enjoy beautiful nature. It's so wonderful. I'm like a bird flying freely in the c 10 and bright sky.
Then I start to find my own way of studying, and I learn better and better in my studies. I want to say, “Enjoying your free time will make you study better.”

Gong Zizhen was a famous poet and thinker in the Qing Dynasty. When he was young, he worked very hard and was c 1 about reading. In 1839, he wrote over 300 poems. Most of them were about s 2 problems. One of them was Miscellanies of the Year 1839(No. 5)(《己亥杂诗·其五》) and it clearly showed his strong feelings of saving poor people and doing something for the country.
At first, Gong wrote about what was happening at that time. As an official(官员) of the Qing Dynasty, Gong a 3 with Lin Zexu's decision to stop the opium(鸦片) business. However, they failed and Gong had to r 4 to his hometown.
Then, Gong wrote about the falling sun. In Chinese poetry, to write about the falling sun is to write about the passing of time and the loss of h 5. It was clear that the poet was sad to leave b 6 he had many friends there. He was also sad that he lost the chance to work for the country.
Gong's sadness was true, but it didn't go on too long. At the e 7 of the poem, Gong used the “fallen blossoms(落花)” to stand for hope. He didn't say much about his sadness any m 8. He told the readers to believe fallen blossoms would nurture(助长) flowers' growth next spring i 9. As a patriot(爱国者), he still c 10 about the country. He would do something for the country in other ways.
