With the help of his 11­year­old daughter Darcy, Tom started sharing a new dad joke on a whiteboard in front of their house every day.(18) It didn't take long before his neighbors started purposely walking by so they could laugh at his latest joke. Word kept spreading, and soon The Washington Post came knocking to write an article about his daily smiles. That's when he knew he'd hit the big time! People started coming from other neighborhoods just to walk past Tom's house！(19) He said he loved watching friends and strangers alike laughing at the signs, especially now that young kids have started using the jokes as reading practice. Major brands wanted to join in the fun. Laffy Taffy even sent him a 60­pound box of candy. Since each of their candies has a silly joke printed on the wrapper, Tom would have some help when his dad jokes well ran dry. Since strangers from all over the country were sending Tom their best jokes, he decided to find a way to use the laughter to help others! In honor of Father's Day, he started a competition on social media to raise money for Martha's Table(20), a non­profit that supports children and families. 第二部分：阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。 A Choose Your Path Forward The following teen programs, designed specifically for teens who are from 13 to 18 years old, provide meaningful experiences today, so teens are ready to realize their dreams tomorrow.

Through a short film festival at our school, our crew decided to develop a simple story focusing on friendship, growth and hospice care(临终关怀). The story was set around Christmas Eve where two kids are assigned to accompany a terminally ill kid during her last few days. There were conflicts and tears, but finally, the kids became close friends on Christmas Day, which was just before the ill kid passed away. We expected it to be a warm story mixed with a little sorrow and planned to name it Merry Christmas. Things weren't so easy at first. We were able to use a crew member's house for shooting but it was far from the city. We experienced technical problems, among others. It was the middle of winter, and emotional collapses(崩溃) of our actors were wearing our patience thin. Pale light, snow and the nervous excitement of telling ghost stories accompanied our night scene shooting. As usual, I adjusted the camera to produce the best image, specially designed with the director to achieve the desired effect. I held the camera in one hand and the spotlight in the other till midnight to finish our night scene. As we decorated the tiny Christmas tree and looked at each other's dizzy faces in the warm light, we couldn't help swallowing up the dessert the host family offered before making the other cakes and fruits for our props(道具). We made jokes about the look of the giant spotlight—it was like a huge shiny umbrella. We somehow felt closer to the characters in the film, experiencing what they experience—leisurely chatting about films and songs in the quiet of night and forming a special connection with each other. Through this experience, I realized that making short films is not only about creating art, but also about creating shared stories and bonds that last a lifetime. (　D　)24． Why did the author make the short film? A． To highlight the value of friendship. B． To celebrate the coming of Christmas. C． To express her concern for a terminally ill kid. D． To participate in her school's short film festival. (　B　)25． What was the author's job in the crew? A． The director. B． The camerawoman. C． The prop maker. D． One of the actresses. (　C　)26． What does the author think of making short films? A． Easy and relaxing. B． Boring and time­consuming. C． A chance to build close friendships. D． A way to experience different lifestyles. (　C　)27． What is the author's purpose in writing the article? A． To describe why she loves film festivals. B． To encourage readers to make short films. C． To share her experience of making a short film. D． To introduce the difficulties of producing a short film. 【文本大意】本文主要讲述作者的一次拍摄短片的经历。 24． D　推理判断题。根据第二段中“Through a short film festival at our school, our crew decided to develop a simple story focusing on friendship, growth and hospice care(临终关怀).(通过在我们学校举办的一个短片电影节，我们一帮人决定拍摄一个关于友谊、成长和临终关怀的简单故事。)”可知，作者拍摄短片，是为了参加学校举办的一个短片电影节。故选D。 25． B　细节理解题。根据第四段中“As usual, I adjusted the camera to produce the best image.(像往常一样，我调整了照相机以产生最好的图像。)”可知，作者负责摄像，是摄影师。故选B。 26． C　推理判断题。根据第一段“I had a great time producing a short film with my other crew members, immersing (使沉浸) myself in the scene, the light and shadow seen through the camera lens, and the warmth of intimate friendship.(我和其他一帮人一起制作了一部短片，让自己沉浸在场景中，沉浸在镜头中的光影中，沉浸在亲密友谊的温暖中。)”和最后一段“Through this experience, I realized that making short films is not only about creating art, but also about creating shared stories and bonds that last a lifetime.(通过这次经历，我意识到制作短片不仅仅是创造艺术，也是创造共有的故事和持续一生的纽带。)”可知，在作者看来，这是一次建立亲密朋友关系的机会。故选C。 27． C　推理判断题。通读全文，文章在第一段提到作者和其他一帮人一起拍摄了一部关于友谊、成长和临终关怀的简单故事短片，自己享受着那份成果，进而在第二段提到他们创作的故事的内容，接下来的内容提到了拍摄的过程及这次拍摄给自己带来的感悟，所以作者写本文的目的是分享自己的一次拍摄短片的经历。故选C。 C Leisure is the prize, right? We work hard, so we want to play hard; we look forward to our time off, believing that the more leisure time we have, the better life will be. However, research shows that both having and deciding how to spend leisure time can be very stressful. Some people feel enormous pressure to make the best use of their free time with the best choices. But this pressure to maximize our fun might impede the enjoyment of leisure itself. Two thousand years ago, concepts of work and leisure were associated with slavery(奴隶制)and freedom, respectively. In ancient Greece, most of work was done by slaves, while wealthier parts of society pursued other activities. Leisure was an active state of mind. Good leisure meant playing sports, learning music theory, debating with qualified partners, doing philosophy, etc. Leisure was not easy, but it was supposed to be satisfying. A shift occurred when the Romans started viewing leisure as a way of getting back energy in preparation for more work. By the 1800s, the kind of leisure that showed social class had shifted too; the wealthy led extremely free lives. A popular example is Walter Benjamin's description of the fashion, around 1893, to walk through streets with a turtle(乌龟) on a chain. Today we're seeing yet another change: a lack of leisure time now operates as a powerful social class symbol. On Twitter, celebrities complain about having no life and being in desperate need of a vacation. In the workplace, being part of the long­hour working culture is still seen by many as an honour. Some people really struggle to enjoy time off. People from America support the belief that leisure is wasteful. Only 14% of Americans take two weeks' vacation in a row, a finding in keeping with the overwork culture. The same study reports that as of 2017, 54% of American workers didn't use up their vacation time, leaving 662 million days reserved for leisure unused. (　B　)28．What does the underlined word “impede” in Paragraph 2 mean? A． Increase. B． Prevent. C．Provide. D．Include. (　D　)29．Which of the following was good leisure in ancient Greece? A． Eating tasty food. B． Cleaning the house. C．Having a good sleep. D．Reading works of literature. (　C　)30．Why does the writer mention the popular example in Paragraph 4? A． To describe a fashion. B． To criticize the wealthy. C．To show a type of leisure. D．To introduce the Romans' lives. (　A　)31．What can we infer from the figures in the last paragraph? A． Many Americans work on their holidays. B． Americans enjoy taking longer vacations. C．American workers enjoy their lives and have fun. D．Tourism in the United States is developing slowly. 【文本大意】文章介绍了我们期待着休闲时光，并认为更多的休闲时光会让生活更美好，然而有研究表明对于如何更好地利用休闲时光，往往给我们带来焦虑，从而有可能会阻碍我们享受休闲时光。 28．B　词义猜测题。根据画线词上文“However，research shows that both having and deciding how to spend leisure time can be very stressful. Some people feel enormous pressure to make the best use of their free time with the best choices.(然而，研究表明，拥有和决定如何度过休闲时光都是非常有压力的。在充分利用他们的休闲时光并做出最好的选择方面，有些人感到巨大的压力。)”可知，想要充分利用休闲时光，使乐趣最大化，会让人感到有压力，反而会阻碍享受休闲时光，由此可推断，impede意为“阻碍，妨碍”。故选B。 29．D　推理判断题。根据第三段中的“In ancient Greece，most of work was done by slaves，while wealthier parts of society pursued other activities. Leisure was an active state of mind. Good leisure meant playing sports, learning music theory, debating with qualified partners, doing philosophy, etc.(在古希腊，大多数工作是由奴隶完成的，而社会中较富裕的那部分人从事其他活动。休闲是一种活跃的精神状态。好的休闲活动意味着做运动、学习音乐理论、与合格的伙伴辩论、研究哲学等。)”可知，在古希腊休闲是指活跃的精神状态。由此可推知，阅读文学作品属于古希腊好的休闲活动。故选D。 30．C　细节理解题。根据第四段中的“By the 1800s, the kind of leisure that showed social class had shifted too; the wealthy led extremely free lives. A popular example is Walter Benjamin's description of the fashion, around 1893, to walk through streets with a turtle(乌龟) on a chain. (到了19世纪，显示社会阶层的休闲方式也发生了变化；富人过着极其自由的生活。一个流行的例子是沃尔特·本杰明对1893年前后的一种时尚的描述，人们用链子拴着一只乌龟走在街上。)”可知，作者提到这个流行的例子是为了展示一种休闲方式。故选C。 31．A　推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Only 14% of Americans take two weeks' vacation in a row, a finding in keeping with the overwork culture. The same study reports that as of 2017, 54% of American workers didn't use up their vacation time, leaving 662 million days reserved for leisure unused.(只有14%的美国人会连续休两周的假，这一发现与过度工作的文化相吻合。同一项研究报告称，截至2017年，54%的美国员工没有休完他们的假期，剩下6.62亿天的休闲时间没有使用。)”可知，许多美国人在假期工作。故选A。 D The South Pole has been warming at more than three times the global average over the past 30 years, according to research led by Ohio University professor Ryan Fogt, and Kyle Clem, who is a current postdoctoral research fellow in climate science. According to the study, this warming period was mainly driven by natural tropical(热带的) climate variability and was likely strengthened by increases in greenhouse gases. Clem and his team analyzed weather station data at the South Pole, as well as climate models to examine the warming in the Antarctic interior(南极内陆). They found that between 1989 and 2018, the South Pole had warmed by about 1.8℃ over the past 30 years at a rate of＋0.6℃ per decade—three times the global average. The study also found that the strong warming over the Antarctic interior in the last 30 years was mainly driven by the tropics, especially warm ocean temperatures in the western tropical Pacific Ocean that changed the winds in the South Atlantic near Antarctica and increased the delivery of warm air to the South Pole. They suggest these atmospheric changes along Antarctica's coast are an important mechanism driving climate anomalies(反常现象) in its interior. Clem and Fogt argue that these warming trends were unlikely the result of natural climate change alone, stressing the effects of added warming related to human activities have worked together to make this one of the strongest warming trends worldwide. “From the very beginning, Clem and I worked very well together and were able to accomplish more as a team than we were individually，” Fogt said. “We have published every year together since 2013, with one of our continuing collaborations being the annual State of the Climate reports. Our work on this project together each year ultimately led to this publication documenting the warming at the South Pole, however, most importantly for me, apart from being a fantastic scientist and collaborator, my family and I are both honored to consider Clem one of our closest friends.” (　D　)32． What is the major cause of the South Pole's warming according to the research? A． The weather station. B． A lack of winds. C． Increases of greenhouse gases. D． Natural tropical climate change. (　C　)33． What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A． The tropical climate signals in the Antarctic interior. B． The effect of human activities on the warming trends. C． The detailed explanation for the South Pole's warming. D． The unpleasant consequences of natural climate change. (　A　)34． Which of the following does Fogt most probably agree on? A． Cooperation is valued in scientific research. B． Getting science paper published is difficult. C． Friendship is more important than science. D． Family support plays a key role in science. (　B　)35． From which is the text most probably taken? A． A chemistry textbook. B． A science magazine. C． A travel brochure. D． A science novel. 【文本大意】文章主要介绍了南极地区气温异常升高及其原因。热带地区气候变化影响了大气环流以至于向南极地区输送了更多温暖的气流，加之人类活动的影响，进而造成了南极地区气温异常升高。 32．D　细节理解题。根据第一段中的“According to the study, this warming period was mainly driven by natural tropical(热带的) climate variability and was likely strengthened by increases in greenhouse gases.(根据这项研究，这一变暖期主要是由自然的热带气候变化驱动的，并可能因温室气体的增加而加强。)”可知，研究发现南极气温异常升高主要是因为热带地区气候变化。故选D。 33．C　主旨大意题。根据第三段内容可知，研究还发现，南极内陆在过去的30年里强烈的变暖主要是由热带地区，特别是热带太平洋西部温暖的海洋温度驱动的。热带尤其是西热带太平洋温暖的海洋温度改变了南极洲附近南大西洋的风，增加了向南极的暖空气输送。 他们认为，这些沿南极洲海岸的大气变化是导致其内部气候异常的重要机制，由此可知，太平洋西部热带地区海洋温度升高改变了靠近南极洲的南大西洋风向，进而向南极输送了更多的温暖的气流，由此造成了南极变暖。因此本段主要是对南极变暖的详细解释。故选C。 34．A　推理判断题。根据最后一段中Fogt说的话“From the very beginning, Clem and I worked very well together and were able to accomplish more as a team than we were individually”和“We have published every year together since 2013, with one of our continuing collaborations being the annual State of the Climate reports. Our work on this project together each year ultimately led to this publication documenting the warming at the South Pole.”可知，从一开始，Clem和Fogt就合作得很好，作为一个团队他们完成了更多工作，超过了他们单独工作所能完成的。自2013年以来，他们每年都一起发表报告，其中一个持续合作项目是年度气候状况报告。 他们每年在这个项目上的共同工作最终导致了这份记录南极变暖的出版物的诞生，由此可知，Fogt和好友取得的研究成果离不开他们的合作。因此Fogt非常看重科学研究中的合作。故选A。 35．B　推理判断题。文章主要介绍了南极地区气温异常升高及其原因，这属于科学研究的范畴。因此，本文最有可能出自“科学杂志”。故选B。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 “Always wear sunscreen.” “Eat a balanced diet.” “A penny saved is a penny earned.” You probably all learned these lessons as a kid. But chances are, despite knowing these, you still step outside without putting on sunscreen, gulp an entire bag of chips in one go or spend more money than you expected. 36．__C__ It's a mistaken idea that knowing is half the battle. In most situations, just knowing something is not nearly enough for you to put it into practice.37．__D__Behavioral scientists have seen people struggle to save money, to cut back on their expenses, even after they've taken a financial class. People know what they need to do to improve their financial situation—to save more and spend less. They believe that financial security is just a problem that can be taught to solve.38．__B__ America spends nearly 700 million dollars every year on financial education programs, yet researchers have found that these programs explained only 0.1% of the change in financial behavior. 39．__E__ If you are struggling, it's not because there's something wrong with you. It's most likely because there is something wrong with how your environment is set up. Look around you. The signals to spend money have got smarter and faster.40．__G__ You can reshape your environment and how you interact with it. A．How to address that? B．But it is often not the case. C．So what is the reason for it? D．Information doesn't always change behavior. E．Behavior change is not educational pursuit but the environmental pursuit. F．They refer to financial education as a way that can make money for them. G．Targeted ads are getting more personalized; everything around you is focusing on spending. 【文本大意】文章主要通过解释存钱和花钱的道理，谈论了理解理论和付诸实践之间的关系。 36．C　下文“It's a mistaken idea that knowing is half the battle. In most situations, just knowing something is not nearly enough for you to put it into practice.(认为知道就等于成功了一半的想法是错误的。在大多数情况下，仅仅知道一些事情是不足以让你付诸实践的。)”对文章第一段谈到的问题进行了解释，即“为什么尽管听过道理，但却不会付诸实践”。因此C项“So what is the reason for it？(原因是什么？)”起到承上启下的作用。故选C。 37．D　空前一句“In most situations, just knowing something is not nearly enough for you to put it into practice.”说明在大多数情况下，仅仅知道一些事情是不足以让你付诸实践的。空处应该承接上文，说明为什么仅仅知道一些事情不足以让人付诸实践；因此D项“Information doesn't always change behavior.(信息并不总能改变行为。)”符合语境，该选项也与下文内容一致。故选D。 38．B　根据空前一句“They believe that financial security is just a problem that can be taught to solve.”可知，他们认为，财务安全只是一个可以通过学习来解决的问题。下文“America spends nearly 700 million dollars every year on financial education programs, yet researchers have found that these programs explained only 0.1% of the change in financial behavior.”说明美国每年在金融教育项目上花费近7亿美元，但研究人员发现，这些项目只能解释金融行为变化的0.1%；对空前一句内容进行了否定，因此B项“But it is often not the case.(但事实往往并非如此。)”符合语境。故选B。 39．E　空处位于句首，为本段的主题句。空后两句“If you are struggling, it's not because there's something wrong with you. It's most likely because there is something wrong with how your environment is set up.(如果你在挣扎，那并不是因为你有什么问题。这很可能是因为你周围的环境有问题。)”提到关键词“environment”，故空处也需要提到与此关键词相关的信息。因此E项“Behavior change is not educational pursuit but the environmental pursuit.(行为改变不是教育追求而是环境追求。)”符合语境，environmental 为关键信息。故选E。 40．G　根据空前的“The signals to spend money have got smarter and faster.(花钱的信号已经变得更加智能和快捷。)”可知，空处应该与花钱的信号如何变得智能和快捷有关，因此G项“Targeted ads are getting more personalized; everything around you is focusing on spending.(定向广告越来越个性化；你周围的一切都在关注消费。)”符合语境，其中spending与空前的spend相对应。故选G。 第三部分：语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后各题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 When I was a child, there wasn't much for me to read.

Many a woman has watched in disbelief as their partners eat their food minutes after sitting down to dinner. Now Korean researchers have discovered why: men and women 57.__actually__(actual) chew differently. Women chew each individual mouthful more times—taking longer to finish 58.__eating__(eat) their meals. The researchers hired 24 males and 24 females in South Korea. They recorded the size of people's bites, total chewing time per mouthful of food, the total number of chews and how long 59.__it__ took the person to eat the entire meal. Men typically take 60.__larger__(large) bites with more “chewing power”， 61.__which__means they consume their meal more quickly than women. Though women were watched 62.__to__have/having__(have) the same chewing pace as men, they chewed each mouthful more times, slowing down the total time it took them to eat their meals. The study 63.__was__published__(publish) in the January issue of the Physiology Behaviour journal. But it flies in the face of an earlier result studied 64.__by__researchers at the Nippon Dental University in Tokyo, Japan, which found no 65.__difference__(different) in how the sexes chewed gum. 【文本大意】本文是说明文。为何男人狼吞虎咽而女人却细嚼慢咽？文章通过一项研究说明了原因：实际上男人和女人的咀嚼方式不同，女人每一口食物咀嚼的次数更多。 56．while　考查连词。句意为“为何男人狼吞虎咽而女人却细嚼慢咽？”根据句意可知，这里用while表示前后分句的对比关系。故填while。 57．actually　考查副词。用副词作状语修饰动词chew。故填actually。 58．eating　考查非谓语动词。动词finish后接动名词作宾语，此处表示“女性每一口食物咀嚼的次数更多，因此也就需要更长的时间才能把东西吃完”。故填eating。 59．it　考查代词。 这里用代词it作形式主语，真正的主语是后面的不定式to eat the entire meal，此处表示“他们记录下了受试者每一口的食量大小、每一口食物咀嚼的时间总长、咀嚼的总次数和吃完整顿饭所要花的时间”。故填it。 60．larger　考查形容词比较级。句意为“男性通常每一口吃得更多，嚼得也更有力”。根据句意和下文中的“more ‘chewing power’”可知，空处要用large的比较级。故填larger。 61．which　考查定语从句。空处引导定语从句，修饰前面的整个句子指代的内容，关系词在从句中作主语，因此用关系代词which引导非限制性定语从句。故填which。 62．to have/having　考查非谓语动词。watch sb do/doing的被动式sb be watched to do/doing，用现在分词表示正在进行的动作，用不定式表示动作的全过程。根据句意“尽管女性被看到咀嚼的速度和男性一样，但是女性每一口饭的咀嚼次数更多，所以她们吃饭就吃得更慢”可知，此处用现在分词或不定式都正确。故填to have或having。 63．was published　考查时态、语态和主谓一致。句意为“这项研究刊登在一月份的《生理学与行为》期刊上”。study和publish之间是被动关系，用被动语态；根据“in the January issue of the Physiology & Behaviour journal”可知，此处描述过去发生的动作，应用一般过去时；主语是第三人称单数，谓语动词用单数形式。故填was published。 64．by　考查介词。空处表示“被，由”，句意为“这项研究公然挑战了之前来自东京的日本牙科大学研究人员得出的结论……”，应用介词by。故填by。 65．difference　考查名词。前面有限定词no，在此处相当于not a，因此空处用名词difference。故填difference。 第四部分：写作(共两节，满分40分) 第一节(满分15分) 假定你是李华，你的英国朋友Peter的生日马上就到了。他属马，喜欢中国文化，因此你画了一幅国画“马”寄给他。请你用英语给Peter写一封邮件，内容如下： 1．表达生日祝福；2.说明礼物含义；3.告知快递信息。 注意： 1．写作词数应为80左右； 2．可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 One possible version： Dear__Peter，__ How__is__everything__going?__Delighted__to__learn__that__your__birthday__is__around__the__corner,__I'd__like__to__extend__my__best__wishes.__May__you__be__healthy__and__prosperous__in__the__following__year.__ Knowing__that__you__were__born__in__the__year__of__the__horse__and__you__are__interested__in__Chinese__culture,__I__have__drawn__a__Chinese__painting__named__“horse”__for__you.__Viewed__as__an__animal__full__of__energy,__the__horse__is__a__symbol__of__a__strong__will__and__perseverance.__Thus,__I__hope__this__painting__will__give__you__a__spur__and__bring__you__good__luck__when__you__are__pursuing__your__dream.__ Actually,__this__painting__was__sent__by__express__a__week__ago__and__it__is__likely__to__be__delivered__to__you__tomorrow.__I__do__hope__it__is__to__your__taste.__ __Yours__sincerely， __Li__Hua 第二节(满分25分) 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。 Today was Community Service Day at school. Maya's class was going to make cards for the seniors living in a nursing home. It was also the first day Maya would be wearing her leg brace(支架) to school, which was designed to help her walk more steadily and smoothly. It was a cold autumn morning. Maya looked down, feeling embarrassed. To make it lovelier, she had delicately decorated the brace with pretty butterfly patterns. Still, she was unsure about others' reaction. All morning at school, kids kept glancing at her brace. To her relief, they didn't say anything. In the classroom, Maya was drawing little green buds and pretty flowers when her friend Samir came over and sat by her. She felt his eyes fixed on her brace and heard him asking, “What's that for？” Not knowing what to say, Maya pretended she didn't hear him. After a few seconds of awkwardness, she glanced back at him, and found that he looked a little sad. After lunch, the class set off. The nursing home was on a small hill and all of them walked there happily along the path. Maya found that the brace did make it easier for her to walk up. Maya and Samir were paired up with a lady who was 83 years old. There at the end of the hall in a wheelchair, with a big smile on her face, sat the lady, wearing a pink coat, with red lipstick and beautiful earrings. She looked bright and full of life. Moving flexibly and fast towards Maya and Samir, she greeted first. “I'm Joan，” she said cheerfully. “Glad to meet you.” Maya and Samir handed her the cards they made. Joan looked at Samir's card carefully and spoke with admiration, “You've written a poem! That's so artistic！” Samir's face reddened with shyness. Then Joan turned to Maya's picture. “The first flowers of spring！” she cried in delight. “You really have a gift for using color！” she said. Clearly, Joan's praise added great power into Maya. 注意： 1．续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。 One possible version： In a sudden wave of bravery, Maya asked, “What's it like being in a wheelchair？”__“It__helps__me__get__around，”__Joan__said__simply.__Then,__grinning,__she__added，“You__are__surprised__at__how__fast__I__can__go__in__this__thing！”__Right__then,__she__moved__the__wheelchair__across__the__room,__turning__around,__back__and__forth.__And__what__surprised__Maya__most__was__that__she__didn't__detect__any__pity__or__embarrassment__from__her.__Then__Maya__looked__up__and__found__Joan__was__smiling,__eyes__purposefully__resting__on__her__brace.__It__was__then__that__a__spark__of__power__was__lit__up__deep__inside__Maya.__That__afternoon,__the__three__of__them__had__a__pleasant__talk__over__lots__of__things__until__it__was__dusk.__ Deeply impressed by Joan, Maya offered to sit beside Samir on the bus ride back home.“Joan__is__great.__I__like__her.”__Samir__said.__Maya__nodded,__lost__in__thought.__With__Joan's__wheelchair__and__smile__in__mind,__she__summoned__up__her__courage__and__said,__“The__brace__keeps__my__toe__up__so__I__can__walk__better.”__“Really？”__Samir__looked__amazed,__reached__out__and__touched__it__gently.__“That's__super__cool！”he__said.__His__words__were__so__sincere__that__Maya__felt__warm__and__moved.__It__was__a__reaction__that__she__expected__deep__inside__her__heart.__Though__it__was__autumn__outside,__it__felt__like__spring__for__Maya.__A__little__green__bud__was__bursting—she__and__her__brace__looked__cool,__beautiful__and__dynamic__in__her__and__others'__eyes.__ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
