Driving was a 32 very soon after diagnosis for me. I needed to get to the chemist’s shop for my diabetes medicine and get to hospital appointments, but at first couldn’t, for having been told not to drive. I didn’t want to be a 33 , having to ask for lifts all the time.
I found it really 34 to be unable to drive, but things settled down after that and seemed to be 35 for a while. 36 , to my surprise, I had severe hypoglycemia (低血糖) last year and wasn’t able to 37 it myself.

I couldn’t 41 all that had happened. It seemed 42 . I needed answers and 43 , so I phoned the Diabetes UK Helpline number I got from their website.

(23-24高二上·广东广州·期中)When my sister Diane began playing the violin, she was seven. How did she sound? Terrible. But she didn’t 46 . At twelve, she asked our parents if she could 47 a full-time music school. They said no. Actually, everyone agreed that my sister didn’t have talent.
I was better at my 48 . My teacher had told my parents that I had great potential. So my parents found the best piano teacher in the area to 49 me. But the only time when he was available was Saturday at 3 p.m. Back then, I was 50 by the British TV show—The Avengers, which was 51 every Saturday at 3 p.m. I let nothing take up my The Avengers hour. So I 52 this amazing opportunity. Today, I don’t even have a 53 in my house.
My sister became an engineer, but she 54 stopped making music. When she was in her40s, she changed her career. She went back to college, got a 55 in music education, and became a music teacher. She starts kids off on their first instrument and gives them all the encouragement and support she never 56 .
Recently, she and a pianist pal put on a recital (音乐演奏会). A big crowd of friends and family were 57 for her. As she played, I looked around at the 58 . Everyone was obviously enjoying the music.

(23-24高二上·山东德州·期中)I decided to be a teacher when I was 10, because I could clearly see some of my teachers had extraordinary powers.
There was an English teacher in fifth grade who could 61 and effortlessly transport us to different worlds every day by telling us stories from books we would otherwise never 62 . It was even shocking that my teacher could 63 the invisible. I was one of those who 64 insight (洞察). Yet my teacher would always notice me and the 65 message in her eyes suggested that she could see me through. She had another superpower and even after four decades, I could still 66 remember her lessons about the great masters of art and great geographers. She did this even though her 67 was not art, nor geography. I knew I wanted to be one of those all-seeing ones with the 68 that made children feel safe and valued.
I know being a teacher isn’t the 69 or the most financially rewarding of jobs. And there are occupational 70 —your knees can become worn out from years of carrying piles of notebooks up and down the school staircase; your 71 can give in from too much talking. But despite all that, there are still those choosing this 72 . To them, teaching is not just a job—it is a science, an art and a craft, which demands 73 labour and investment.
I have taught for three decades. Occasionally, I meet my 74 students. Their obvious love for me and fond 75 of our time together are my rewards.

I used to live in an area where the public 2 was not very good. If you came back home after 7 p. m. you would have to 3 for about an hour to catch a bus or a taxi. So there were many non-official “taxis” 4 to take people home, but for a bit higher 5 that not everyone could afford every day. 6 , I would take them only when I was really 7 and anxious to go home.
One day, when I took a non-official “taxi”, which was 8 cheaper than the official ones, I felt lucky and 9 . But that was just the beginning! When we 10 , the driver said that he would not 11 and that he was just doing it as an act of 12 , because his mother had done it before.
I felt so 13 that I failed to find words to 14 how grateful I was for being one of the people he took. He made my day and I felt so good during the following days because of that free ride. Since then I have decided to do acts of kindness myself that might 15 others.

(23-24高二上·重庆渝北·期中)My daughter loved dancing until she didn’t find it attractive. After an 1 first year, I noticed her interest fading week by week. Then one day, she slowly walked to me before class and asked if she could just 2 it.
My first reaction was to advise her to “finish what you start”. 3 , sticking with something difficult can teach perseverance, discipline and confidence. But watching mydaughter 4 herself into each ballet position, I started to question how much 5 that “blanket advice” made. Is it really in my kid’s best 6 or even practical, to make her stick to every commitment through until she reaches a bitter end? What if there are different but 7 valuable qualities, which can be gained by 8 the things that are not right for her.
After a few days’ consideration, she decided dance wasn’t for her - a choice I 9 . Quitting is never a black and white issue. Sometimes, it means 10 a barrier in your way to love something else. In my daughter’s case, ending dance made space for her new hobbies, such as horseback riding and Girl Scouts. She’s into them for now, but it is okay if that 11 changes.
As adults, we are used to 12 the power of saying yes, but what about saying no? The ability to recognize when something isn’t an 13 investment of our time or energy is also important. As my daughter gets older, I want her to feel confident to 14 something that’s no longer meeting her needs. She shouldn’t be held back by the thought that she must finish something at any cost 15 because she has started.

(23-24高二上·四川成都·期中)One January evening in 2008, Rachel Lapierre bought a $4 lottery (彩票) ticket at the grocery store. The 46-year-old mother of four was wearing herself thin as a full-time 1 and part-time volunteer aid worker. After an exhausting day, she needed something to 2 her spirits.

5 , the next day, the lottery office informed her that she had won a sum of $675,000. Staying 6 to her word, Lapierre devoted her life to her passion project Le Book Humanitaire, which has since become a non-profit 7 .
Le Book, as Lapierre, now 62, affectionately calls it, 8 as a simple list of good deeds she wrote down in a notebook to 9 what she had done to help others. To her, the deeds were just small acts of 10 that anyone else might have done. But word started 11 , her phone began ringing and a Facebook page she created for the project became an effective way to deal with 12 from those in need and those who wanted to help.
Le Book Humanitaire now has a team of 80 volunteers, 13 local emergency support, medical outreach and food delivery to seniors.

(23-24高二上·浙江杭州·期中)While high school does not generally encourage students to explore new aspects of life, college sets the stage for that exploration. I myself went through this 1 process and found something that has changed my 2 at college for the better: I discovered ASL-American Sign Language.

After that, feeling the need to explore further, I decided to drop in on one of ASL Club's meetings. I only learned how to 10 the alphabet(字母表)that day. Yet instead of being discouraged by my 11 progress, I was excited. I then made it a point to 12 those meetings and learn all I could.
The following term, I registered an ASL class. The professor was deaf and any talking was 13 . I soon realized that the silence was not unpleasant. 14 if there had been any talking, it would have caused us to learn less. Now, I appreciate the silence and the 15 way of communication it opens.

(23-24高二上·广东广州·期中)The universal use of technology has resulted in a constant current of information interrupting the “flow” of our life. This 1 pattern was initially marketed as “call-waiting” for our phones. But now our eyes, ears, and fingers are glued to our technology 24/7. We are 2 by emails, texts, or the news on our Facebook pages. My friend Ron refers to this technology as “weapons of mass distraction.”
But how is this mass distraction 3 us? According to a 2010 Kaiser Family Foundation report, children from eight to eighteen spend an average of seven hours and thirty-eight minutes a day using entertainment media. In addition, a study found that exposure to 4 media was associated with attention problems in a sample of 210 college students.
The 5 is just part of the larger picture. Dealing with a crowd of daily text messages and emails makes it difficult for us to be by ourselves when all that activity stops. Although a sense of 6 is natural at times, our addiction to the nonstop interaction afforded by technology deepens that feeling when access to the technology is unexpectedly 7 . Just think how you feel when you lack cell phone or web access. Is it possible that our obsession with continually checking our emails and text messages has contributed to our 8 to genuinely relate with others?
Apart from the effects of technology on our 9 and our ability to be at ease without technology, let’s examine how interacting with our devices 10 the development of our fundamental communication and social skills. Many researchers observe that everyday conversation between human beings is becoming increasingly 11 .
Many of today’s children are growing up with a built-in dependence on devices, making it difficult for them to feel 12 in everyday social situations. Often they find it 13 to make eye contact or deal with even the simplest face-to-face interactions without the aid of technology as an intermediary (媒介).
Over time these children forget how to relate with each other because they have become habituated to using technology to 14 direct contact with others and life itself. 15 , some neuroscientists believe that use of the internet actually rewires our brains.

After that, feeling the need to explore further, I decided to drop in on one of ASL Club's meetings. I only learned how to 10 the alphabet(字母表)that day. Yet instead of being discouraged by my 11 progress, I was excited. I then made it a point to 12 those meetings and learn all I could.
The following term, I registered an ASL class. The professor was deaf and any talking was 13 . I soon realized that the silence was not unpleasant. 14 if there had been any talking, it would have caused us to learn less. Now, I appreciate the silence and the 15 way of communication it opens.

(23-24高二上·广东广州·期中)The universal use of technology has resulted in a constant current of information interrupting the “flow” of our life. This 1 pattern was initially marketed as “call-waiting” for our phones. But now our eyes, ears, and fingers are glued to our technology 24/7. We are 2 by emails, texts, or the news on our Facebook pages. My friend Ron refers to this technology as “weapons of mass distraction.”
But how is this mass distraction 3 us? According to a 2010 Kaiser Family Foundation report, children from eight to eighteen spend an average of seven hours and thirty-eight minutes a day using entertainment media. In addition, a study found that exposure to 4 media was associated with attention problems in a sample of 210 college students.
The 5 is just part of the larger picture. Dealing with a crowd of daily text messages and emails makes it difficult for us to be by ourselves when all that activity stops. Although a sense of 6 is natural at times, our addiction to the nonstop interaction afforded by technology deepens that feeling when access to the technology is unexpectedly 7 . Just think how you feel when you lack cell phone or web access. Is it possible that our obsession with continually checking our emails and text messages has contributed to our 8 to genuinely relate with others?
Apart from the effects of technology on our 9 and our ability to be at ease without technology, let’s examine how interacting with our devices 10 the development of our fundamental communication and social skills. Many researchers observe that everyday conversation between human beings is becoming increasingly 11 .
Many of today’s children are growing up with a built-in dependence on devices, making it difficult for them to feel 12 in everyday social situations. Often they find it 13 to make eye contact or deal with even the simplest face-to-face interactions without the aid of technology as an intermediary (媒介).
Over time these children forget how to relate with each other because they have become habituated to using technology to 14 direct contact with others and life itself. 15 , some neuroscientists believe that use of the internet actually rewires our brains.

2.A.isolated B.flooded C.informed D.promoted
