  • 1.I was sitting in my grandpa's oak chair having coffee when a text message from a former colleague woke me from my daydreams.
       "Do you want to pick up your rocking chair?"
       For 17 years,I taught grade one and two,and my dreams as a teacher were tied to that rocking chair.It was a magical idea to have it in my class.Every day after breaks,the class would gather around and listen to the story I was reading.When the kids were close,they found the courage to share their stories,dreams and fears.The chair was part of my job,part of me.
       Unfortunately,I became unwell and couldn't keep teaching.I experienced severe depression and anxiety and was forced to leave the job.With my life as a teacher over,I needed a new path.And I didn't have to look far.
       My husband and I adopted one of my former students in 2017.The complexity of parenting a child who came to us at 9 years old changed our lives in unexpected ways.It called on the part of me that learns to be a good mother.We spent countless hours snuggling up (依偎)with books — healing,bonding and solidifying our family.This gave me a new purpose.
       I joined a support group of local moms.For about a year,I met with them weekly for walks or coffee.We came together to share.Then I started giving and receiving help.I gave driving practice to a single mom with her learner's license and received emotional support in return.I also took her son on hikes around the city.Another woman encouraged me to buy a stand-up board and gave me lessons on surfing.
       My family,my books,finding a new purpose and belonging in a community — these are fulfilling the sense of self I used to prize as a teacher.I learned my identity doesn't need to change.I'm still honoring those core values whether or not I'm working as a teacher.

根據下面短文, 從短文后的選項中選出可以填入空白處的最佳選項。選項中有兩項為多余選項。

  • 2.Let's take a minute to think about the water we use.The human body is 60% water and we need to drink lots of water to be healthy.When we are thirsty we just go to the kitchen and fill a glass with clean water.
       (1)
    For example,farmers,who produce the food we eat,use water to make the plants grow.When we turn on a light or switch on a TV or a computer we use energy and we need water to produce this energy.
       The truth is that we are lucky enough to have clean water whenever we want,but this is not the case for many people around the world. (2)
    That's around one in 10 people in the world.If we drink dirty water,we can catch diseases from the bacteria and become ill.Every year over 500,000 children die from diarrhea(腹瀉) from dirty water.That's around 1,400 children every day!Also,in some countries children walk many kilometres every day to get water. (3)
    Therefore,they don't have time to learn how to read or write and don't get an education.
       (4)
    On this day every year,countries around the world hold events to educate people about the problems of dirty water and that clean water is something that everyone should have around the world.At one school in the UK,children between the ages of 10 and 15 walk 6km with six litres of water. (5)
    People give them money to do this and all the money helps get clean water to as many people as possible around the world.

    A.We use water indirectly,too.
    B.Every system in our body depends on water to function.
    C.It is to inspire people to learn more about water-related problems.
    D.If children walk many hours a day to get water,they can't go to school.
    E.Did you know that around 750 million people do not have clean water to drink?
    F.In 1993 the United Nations decided that March 22nd is the World Day for Water.
    G.In this way,they know how it feels to walk a long distance carrying heavy bottles.

  • 菁優(yōu)網4.For a Friend Du Fu(Translated by Xu Yuanchong)
       North and south of my cottage winds spring water green;I see but flocks of gulls coming from day to day.
       The footpath strewn with(1)
    (fall) blooms is not swept clean;
    My wicket gate is opened but for you today.Far from market,I can afford but simple dish;Being not rich,I've only old wine for our cup.
       To drink with my neighbor(2)
    you wish,
       I'll call him over the fence to finish the cup.
       Friends are important in our lives.But for pursuing dreams and better lives,people sometimes have to separate(3)
    their friends.Then what will they feel when they see each other again?
       For Tang Dynasty poet Du Fu (712-770),it's great (4)
    (happy),which is supported by his poem For a Friend.After moving to Chengdu,Du lived a(5)
    (relax) life.Though his surroundings were beautiful,he felt lonely sometimes for(6)
    he often saw was nothing but flocks of gulls.So when he knew a friend would visit him,Du felt excited and tried his best to treat the friend.
       Being far from a market,he could only prepare simple dishes.Being not rich,he only had old
    wine to offer his friend.When(7)
    (drink) happily,he would like to invite his neighbor to drink together.These lively descriptions help readers learn Du's joy of meeting an old friend with hospitality (好客).
       Actually,hospitality is not only(8)
    trait of Du's,but also of China's.Chinese President Xi Jinping(9)
    (quote) the Confucian proverb "Isn't it a delight to have friends coming from afar? " in international ceremonies more than once.As Beijing became the world's first "dual ( 雙 的 ) Olympic city",the sentence is also on the(10)

  • 25.Prissy Baker was in Oscar Miller's store New Year's morning when her uncle,Richard Baker,a bachelor,came in.He did not look at Prissy,nor did she wish him a happy New Year.Uncle Richard had not been on speaking terms with her or her father for eight years.When she had been a little girl they had been great friends;but that was before the quarrel.
        When Prissy had been nine years old,Richard and Irving Baker had quarreled over the division of a piece of property.The fault had been mainly on Richard's side,and that very fact made him all the more stubborn.He had never spoken to his brother since,and he declared he never would.Prissy and her father felt very badly over it,but Uncle Richard seemed to have completely forgotten them.
        Richard told Mr.Miller that he was on business but that he didn't like it."Well,I always like a good dinner on New Year's," said Richard. "It's about the only way I can celebrate.I got everything ready last night,but I won't get back before one o'clock,so I think I'll have to put up with a cold bite."
        After Richard had driven away,Prissy walked thoughtfully home.She had planned to spend a holiday with a new book.She did not even mean to cook dinner,for her father had had to go to the town that morning and would be gone the whole day.There was nobody else to cook dinner for.Prissy's mother had died long ago.
        Suddenly an idea popped into Prissy's head.Dared she?Oh,she never could!But he would never know.There would be plenty of time!
        Prissy had no trouble breaking into Uncle Richard's house,for the woodshed door was unfastened.She tripped into the kitchen with rosy cheeks and mischief sparkling in her eyes.In a short time,the kitchen was full of appetizing odors.As the clock struck twelve,Prissy had the table set.

    Prissy was about to slip away when the door was pushed open.  
    ___________________
    When the meal was over,he talked to Prissy kindly and politely.
