“When life gives you lemons, make lemonade (柠檬水).” It is a good saying, but life throws at us more serious problems than lemons, doesn’t it? What do we do when we lose a family member? What do we do when we have been through events that leave us feelings? Can any failure be turned into success?
Most of us realize we can learn one or two things from failure. When we fail, we think, “Well, I won’t try that again! ”or “I won’t trust anyone again! ”But this is not useful learning. It is suggested that we ask challenging questions. For example, “How could I try that again?” There are a lot we can learn and get from failure if we keep asking good questions on how to do better next time.
Failure or pain can be good for developing our character if we choose to face it in a positive way. Our own suffering often makes us understand others better. It can give us wisdom or knowledge to share with others, which can prevent them from similar failure. If we have been hurt by others because of another person’s poor character, it may improve us to be better persons.
Failures can make us experience many things that we didn’t experience before. If you lose your job, it doesn’t mean you lose everything and probably you may get more. As we know, no job often leads to self employment; no job has been the beginning of many highly successful businesses. It is common that we don’t like changing, but change, even unfortunate change, brings new opportunities. Sometimes only failure brings us better opportunities or greater success.
24. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 means that ________.
A. any lemons can be made into lemonade
B. problems always bring us lots of trouble
C. problems can never be avoided in our life
D. failure can also be turned into a success
25. The 2nd paragraph mainly tells us that ________.
A. We should learn more when we fail
B. We must be careful to trust anyone
C. We must ask questions when we fail
D. We should deal with failure positively
26. According to the writer, if you were hurt by another person, you should ________.
A. avoid hurting others in the same way
B. find a better way to hurt him bravely
C. try to prevent him from hurting others
D. thank him for making you more perfect
27. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Failure Decides success B. Failure Creates Opportunities
C. Failure Brings Everything D. Failure Makes a Perfect Person
C
Traveling to watch their team play at the World Cup took a little longer than usual for two French fans. Mehdi Balamissa and Gabriel Martin decided the best way to travel from France to Qatar was on two wheels. The friends spent three months traveling 7,000 kilometers by bicycle to reach Qatar 2022 and watch their beloved France defend its title.
“It was a crazy idea, but we’re the kind of people that have big ideas and don’t want to have any regrets,” Balamissa said, as both spoke to CNN Sport a day after arriving in the country. “So, since we are both self-employed, we decided to block off three months of our time and come to Qatar.”
The pair started their mammoth (庞大的) journey at the Stade de France in Paris, home of the French national team, and finished at the stunning Lusail Stadium, the venue that will host the final at Qatar 2022. They would travel on average 115 kilometers per day, taking appropriate rest days when needed. They battled through the heat of the desert in Saudi Arabia as well as flooded woodland areas in Hungary as they made their winding way to Qatar, stopping off at campsites, lodges (乡间小舍) and hotels to sleep.
The idea came about after cycling from France to Italy to watch their country play in the UEFA Nations League last year and they wanted to test themselves with a much longer trip. They hoped their trip would promote the benefits of eco-friendly travel and said they plan to offer cycling workshops to children from disadvantaged backgrounds when they eventually arrive home.
The two cyclists encountered many problems along the way, including dozens of flat tires, but relied on their infectiously positive attitude to get them through. The pair laugh as they recall the time they had to travel 15 hours to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in order to find a bike repair shop before traveling 15 hours back to the exact point where they had stopped.
“We had many troubles, but we fixed them as we went,” Martin told CNN.
28. Why did Balamissa and Martin go to Qatar?
A. To watch their country defending its champion.
B. To do cycling training.
C. To close off three months for no regrets.
D. To set them apart from the other fans.
29. What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about the two fans?
A. They started the journey in Paris.
B. They traveled on a new route.
C. They experienced severe challenges in the journey.
D. They enjoyed fantastic scenery along the journey.
30. What’s the purpose of the two fans’ cycling trip?
A. To benefit more from the cycling workshops.
B. To raise awareness of green tourism.
C. To explore the secrets and laws of nature.
D. To be involved in the UEFA Nations League.
31. What can best describe Balamissa and Martin?
A. Energetic and determined. B. Cautious and smart.
C. Hard-working and kind. D. Ambitious and considerate.
D
There are two kinds of people: those who like to pack up leftovers as soon as dinner is over, and those who let leftovers sit out for a few hours so they can cool down.
However, both leaving leftovers out for a long period of time and adding hot items to the fridge can cause problems.
Whether you should immediately put food in the fridge or let it sit out to cool depends on its temperature. Dangerous bacterial (细菌的) growth happens between 41 and 135 degrees F. Potentially harmful bacteria grows most rapidly at these temperatures.
Placing lots of hot food in the fridge can raise the temperature of the fridge into this danger zone. Fridge temperatures should always be set below 40 degrees F. This may help the food get out of the danger zone as fast as possible.
However, there’s no harm in putting hot food directly into the fridge if you need to. If you are a forgetful person, or if you won’t be around to store the food after it has cooled enough, go ahead and put it in the fridge. Your fridge can handle the heat and get the food cooled quickly.
Food should never stay out at room temperature for more than two hours. Leftovers can become breeding grounds (滋生地) for dangerous bacteria if they’re left out too long and can make people sick.
“It is OK to leave the food cooling outside before you hit the two-hour mark,” says Serena Poon, nutritionist of Le Cordon Bleu’s Grand Diploma training program. “In fact, the sooner you can get your leftovers in the fridge, the better.”
32. Which temperature most contributes to the growth of harmful bacteria?
A. Below 40 degrees B. Between 39~40 degrees F.
C. Between 41~135 degrees F. D. Above 135 degrees F.
33. What is the author’s attitude towards putting hot food directly into the fridge?
A. Unclear. B. supportive. C. Worried. D. Unconcerned.
34. What does Serena Poon suggest doing about the leftovers?
A. Dividing them into small parts.
B. Storing them in the fridge right away.
C. Waiting until they cool down completely outside.
D. Leaving them sitting at room temperature for two hours.
35 What is the best title for the text?
A. When to Pack up Leftovers B. How to Prevent Bacterial Growth
C. To Cool Food Outside or in the Fridge D. A Good Idea to Store Food in the Fridge

67. 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。
Years ago, my daughter Hope was in a forth grade class with a group of children neighbourhood. Most of the children in Hope’s class had at least one parent working in a factory. Hope loved her class and often told me stories of her classmates, including a boy named Robert who was in trouble a lot. He always stood in the corner for poor behavior in class. I volunteered to act as “the classroom mom”, meaning brought snacks and planned parties and special outings for her class, even though I worked full-time as a social worker.
One day I saw Robert standing in the corner and asked the teacher if he could join our Mother’s Day party. She refused, saying he needed to learn a lesson. I wasn’t sure what he had done to make the teacher place him in the corner, but I felt sad for him as we ate cakes and played games while he continued to face the corner. After the party, I asked Hope what was wrong with Robert. “It seemed that he went to school only for basketball. He didn’t listen to our teacher in class and he talked back. If you were his mother, I bet he wouldn’t talk back,” Hope said. I knew Robert’s smother worked long hours in the paper-making factory. I knew she was a good woman, who found it hard to care for her four children alone. She tried her best, but I was sure there were days when she felt hopeless and was unable to manage it.
Hope said Robert often got angry in class when he didn’t know the answer to a question and couldn’t read as well as the other children. Hope’s words struck me and made me think about whether I could help Robert on a one-to-one basis. His teacher allowed me to come two days a week during my lunch break and help Robert with reading. We read second grade-level books, the highest level he could master.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150词左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Slowly he began to master these books, almost enjoying them.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
At the end of the fourth grade, Robert and his classmates took the final exams.

“When life gives you lemons, make lemonade (柠檬水).” It is a good saying, but life throws at us more serious problems than lemons, doesn’t it? What do we do when we lose a family member? What do we do when we have been through events that leave us feelings? Can any failure be turned into success?
Most of us realize we can learn one or two things from failure. When we fail, we think, “Well, I won’t try that again! ”or “I won’t trust anyone again! ”But this is not useful learning. It is suggested that we ask challenging questions. For example, “How could I try that again?” There are a lot we can learn and get from failure if we keep asking good questions on how to do better next time.
Failure or pain can be good for developing our character if we choose to face it in a positive way. Our own suffering often makes us understand others better. It can give us wisdom or knowledge to share with others, which can prevent them from similar failure. If we have been hurt by others because of another person’s poor character, it may improve us to be better persons.
Failures can make us experience many things that we didn’t experience before. If you lose your job, it doesn’t mean you lose everything and probably you may get more. As we know, no job often leads to self employment; no job has been the beginning of many highly successful businesses. It is common that we don’t like changing, but change, even unfortunate change, brings new opportunities. Sometimes only failure brings us better opportunities or greater success.
24. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 means that ________.
A. any lemons can be made into lemonade
B. problems always bring us lots of trouble
C. problems can never be avoided in our life
D. failure can also be turned into a success
25. The 2nd paragraph mainly tells us that ________.
A. We should learn more when we fail
B. We must be careful to trust anyone
C. We must ask questions when we fail
D. We should deal with failure positively
26. According to the writer, if you were hurt by another person, you should ________.
A. avoid hurting others in the same way
B. find a better way to hurt him bravely
C. try to prevent him from hurting others
D. thank him for making you more perfect
27. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Failure Decides success B. Failure Creates Opportunities
C. Failure Brings Everything D. Failure Makes a Perfect Person
【答案】24. D 25. D 26. A 27. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要论述的是人生中有很多的失败,但有时候,只有失败才能给我们带来更好的机会或更大的成功。
【24题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线句子后的“It is a good saying, but life throws at us more serious problems than lemons, doesn’t it? What do we do when we lose a family member? What do we do when we have been through events that leave us feelings? Can any failure be turned into success?(这句话很好,但生活给我们带来的问题比柠檬更严重,不是吗?失去亲人时我们该怎么办?当我们经历了让我们有感觉的事情时,我们会怎么做?任何失败都能转化为成功吗?)”可知,作者以谚语引出本文讲述的话题,同时,利用一系列的问题对此进行解释,生活给我们的问题比柠檬严重,任何失败都会转化为成功吗?作者对此产生疑问,进而展开本文的论述。由此可猜测,划线句子应是一个观点“失败能转化为成功”。故选D项。
【25题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段中的“Most of us realize we can learn one or two things from failure.(我们大多数人都意识到我们可以从失败中学到一两件事)”可知,人们都意识到我们可以从失败中学到一两件事,结合尾句“There are a lot we can learn and get from failure if we keep asking good questions on how to do better next time.(我们可以从失败中学到很多东西,如果我们不断问一些好问题,下次如何做得更好)”可知,我们要失败后不断地问自己一些好的问题。由此可知,本段讲述的是我们失败的时候,要积极处理自己的失败。故选D项。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Our own suffering often makes us understand others better. (我们自己的苦难常常使我们更好地理解别人)”可知,作者认为,如果我们自己遭遇了不行会让我们更好的理解别人,结合下文中的“If we have been hurt by others because of another person’s poor character, it may improve us to be better persons.(如果我们曾经因为别人的品行不好而受到别人的伤害,这也许会使我们变得更好)”可推断,如果我们受到了别人的伤害,我们会更好的理解其他人,我们从别人对我们的伤害中学到伤害别人不是好的行为,所以我们就不会再去伤害别人。故选A项。
【27题详解】
主旨大意题。根据首段中的“Can any failure be turned into success?(任何失败都能转化为成功吗?)”可知,作者用提问的方式展开本文的论述,结合下文中作者论述的如何面对失败以及失败给我们带来的好处以及尾段中的“Sometimes only failure brings us better opportunities or greater success.(有时候,只有失败才能给我们带来更好的机会或更大的成功)”可知,有时候,只有失败会带给我们更好的机会或更大的成功,所以本文主要论述的是失败可以创造更多的机会。由此可知,“失败创造更多机会”适合作本文最佳标题。故选B项。
C
Traveling to watch their team play at the World Cup took a little longer than usual for two French fans. Mehdi Balamissa and Gabriel Martin decided the best way to travel from France to Qatar was on two wheels. The friends spent three months traveling 7,000 kilometers by bicycle to reach Qatar 2022 and watch their beloved France defend its title.
“It was a crazy idea, but we’re the kind of people that have big ideas and don’t want to have any regrets,” Balamissa said, as both spoke to CNN Sport a day after arriving in the country. “So, since we are both self-employed, we decided to block off three months of our time and come to Qatar.”
The pair started their mammoth (庞大的) journey at the Stade de France in Paris, home of the French national team, and finished at the stunning Lusail Stadium, the venue that will host the final at Qatar 2022. They would travel on average 115 kilometers per day, taking appropriate rest days when needed. They battled through the heat of the desert in Saudi Arabia as well as flooded woodland areas in Hungary as they made their winding way to Qatar, stopping off at campsites, lodges (乡间小舍) and hotels to sleep.
The idea came about after cycling from France to Italy to watch their country play in the UEFA Nations League last year and they wanted to test themselves with a much longer trip. They hoped their trip would promote the benefits of eco-friendly travel and said they plan to offer cycling workshops to children from disadvantaged backgrounds when they eventually arrive home.
The two cyclists encountered many problems along the way, including dozens of flat tires, but relied on their infectiously positive attitude to get them through. The pair laugh as they recall the time they had to travel 15 hours to Riyadh, Saudi Arabia, in order to find a bike repair shop before traveling 15 hours back to the exact point where they had stopped.
“We had many troubles, but we fixed them as we went,” Martin told CNN.
28. Why did Balamissa and Martin go to Qatar?
A. To watch their country defending its champion.
B. To do cycling training.
C. To close off three months for no regrets.
D. To set them apart from the other fans.
29. What does paragraph 3 mainly tell us about the two fans?
A. They started the journey in Paris.
B. They traveled on a new route.
C. They experienced severe challenges in the journey.
D. They enjoyed fantastic scenery along the journey.
30. What’s the purpose of the two fans’ cycling trip?
A. To benefit more from the cycling workshops.
B. To raise awareness of green tourism.
C. To explore the secrets and laws of nature.
D. To be involved in the UEFA Nations League.
31. What can best describe Balamissa and Martin?
A. Energetic and determined. B. Cautious and smart.
C. Hard-working and kind. D. Ambitious and considerate.
【答案】28. A 29. C 30. B 31. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了法国球迷Mehdi Balamissa和Gabriel Martin克服重重困难,完成历时三个月的自行车之旅来到卡塔尔观看自己国家的世界杯卫冕冠军赛。他们的伟大想法,积极乐观的态度,坚定的意志帮助他们完成了这次任务。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段内容“The friends spent three months traveling 7,000 kilometers by bicycle to reach Qatar 2022 and watch their beloved France defend its title.(这对朋友花了三个月的时间骑自行车旅行了7000公里,来到2022年的卡塔尔,观看他们心爱的法国队卫冕冠军。)”可知,他们前往卡塔尔是为了观看自己国家球队的卫冕冠军赛。故选A项。
29题详解】
主旨大意题。根据该段内容“They would travel on average 115 kilometers per day, taking appropriate rest days when needed. They battled through the heat of the desert in Saudi Arabia as well as flooded woodland areas in Hungary as they made their winding way to Qatar, stopping off at campsites, lodges and hotels to sleep.(他们平均每天旅行115公里,必要时适当休息。他们穿过沙特阿拉伯炎热的沙漠和匈牙利被洪水淹没的林地,蜿蜒前往卡塔尔,在露营地、小屋和酒店停下来睡觉。)”可知,该段描述了“日行115公里”,“在炎热的沙漠行走”,“穿越洪水淹没地”等二人途中的艰难遭遇。因此可知,该段主要讲述了二人途中遇到的种种严峻挑战。故选C项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第四段内容“They hoped their trip would promote the benefits of eco-friendly travel...(他们希望这次旅行能宣传环保旅行的好处……)”可知,他们希望通过“自行车之旅”宣传环保旅行的好处。由此可推知,“自行车之旅”的目的是增强人们的环保旅游意识,即,生态旅游。故选B项。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段内容“The friends spent three months traveling 7,000 kilometers by bicycle to reach Qatar 2022 and watch their beloved France defend its title.(这对朋友花了三个月的时间骑自行车旅行了7000公里,来到2022年的卡塔尔,观看他们心爱的法国队卫冕冠军。)”和第二段内容Balamissa的采访“It was a crazy idea, but we’re the kind of people that have big ideas and don’t want to have any regrets(这是一个疯狂的想法,但我们是那种有伟大想法的人,不想留下任何遗憾)”可知,历时三个月的自行车之旅来到卡塔尔观看自己国家的世界杯卫冕冠军赛,他们是“疯狂”,对生活有激情、精力充沛的人;根据文章第五段内容“The two cyclists encountered many problems along the way, including dozens of flat tires, but relied on their infectiously positive attitude to get them through.(这两名骑自行车的人一路上遇到了很多问题,包括几十个轮胎漏气了,但依靠他们极富感染力的积极态度,他们度过了难关。)”可知,他们有着积极的态度,不怕苦难,意志坚定。因此,选项A“Energetic and determined.(精力充沛,意志坚定。)”可描述他们二人。故选A项。

There are two kinds of people: those who like to pack up leftovers as soon as dinner is over, and those who let leftovers sit out for a few hours so they can cool down.
However, both leaving leftovers out for a long period of time and adding hot items to the fridge can cause problems.
Whether you should immediately put food in the fridge or let it sit out to cool depends on its temperature. Dangerous bacterial (细菌的) growth happens between 41 and 135 degrees F. Potentially harmful bacteria grows most rapidly at these temperatures.
Placing lots of hot food in the fridge can raise the temperature of the fridge into this danger zone. Fridge temperatures should always be set below 40 degrees F. This may help the food get out of the danger zone as fast as possible.
However, there’s no harm in putting hot food directly into the fridge if you need to. If you are a forgetful person, or if you won’t be around to store the food after it has cooled enough, go ahead and put it in the fridge. Your fridge can handle the heat and get the food cooled quickly.
Food should never stay out at room temperature for more than two hours. Leftovers can become breeding grounds (滋生地) for dangerous bacteria if they’re left out too long and can make people sick.
“It is OK to leave the food cooling outside before you hit the two-hour mark,” says Serena Poon, nutritionist of Le Cordon Bleu’s Grand Diploma training program. “In fact, the sooner you can get your leftovers in the fridge, the better.”
32. Which temperature most contributes to the growth of harmful bacteria?
A. Below 40 degrees B. Between 39~40 degrees F.
C. Between 41~135 degrees F. D. Above 135 degrees F.
33. What is the author’s attitude towards putting hot food directly into the fridge?
A. Unclear. B. supportive. C. Worried. D. Unconcerned.
34. What does Serena Poon suggest doing about the leftovers?
A. Dividing them into small parts.
B. Storing them in the fridge right away.
C. Waiting until they cool down completely outside.
D. Leaving them sitting at room temperature for two hours.
35 What is the best title for the text?
A. When to Pack up Leftovers B. How to Prevent Bacterial Growth
C. To Cool Food Outside or in the Fridge D. A Good Idea to Store Food in the Fridge
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. B 35. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文,讨论了食物在室温下放置以及直接放入冰箱对细菌生长的影响。文章指出危险的细菌生长发生在41到135华氏度之间,并建议尽快将食物冷藏以避免细菌繁殖。同时提到,如果担心忘记或无法及时冷藏,可以直接把热的食物放进冰箱。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Dangerous bacterial growth happens between 41 and 135 degrees F. Potentially harmful bacteria grows most rapidly at these temperatures.(危险的细菌生长发生在41至135华氏度之间。潜在有害细菌在这个温度范围内生长最快)”可知,最有利于有害细菌生长的温度范围是41至135华氏度。故选C项。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第五段“However, there’s no harm in putting hot food directly into the fridge if you need to. If you are a forgetful person, or if you won’t be around to store the food after it has cooled enough, go ahead and put it in the fridge. Your fridge can handle the heat and get the food cooled quickly.(然而,如果你需要的话,把热的食物直接放进冰箱并没有害处。如果你是个健忘的人,或者你不会在那里等待食物冷却后再存放,那么就直接把它放进冰箱吧。你的冰箱能够承受热量并迅速使食物降温)”可知,作者认为把热的食物直接放进冰箱并没有害处。如果你是个健忘的人,或者你不会在那里等待食物冷却后再存放,那么就直接把它放进冰箱,可以推断出作者对于直接将热食放入冰箱的态度是支持的。故选B项。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段引用Serena Poon的话“In fact, the sooner you can get your leftovers in the fridge, the better.(事实上,越快把剩菜放进冰箱越好)”可知,Serena Poon建议应立即将剩菜存入冰箱。故选B项。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“There are two kinds of people: those who like to pack up leftovers as soon as dinner is over, and those who let leftovers sit out for a few hours so they can cool down.( 有两种人:一种是晚饭一吃完就喜欢打包剩菜的人,另一种是让剩菜放在外面几个小时以便于冷却的人)”、第二段“However, both leaving leftovers out for a long period of time and adding hot items to the fridge can cause problems(不过,长时间放置剩菜剩饭和将热食物直接放入冰箱都可能导致问题)”以及最后一段““It is OK to leave the food cooling outside before you hit the two-hour mark,” says Serena Poon, nutritionist of Le Cordon Bleu’s Grand Diploma training program. “In fact, the sooner you can get your leftovers in the fridge, the better.”(“在两小时之内,将食物放在室外冷却是可以的,”勒科尔多布蓝带大文凭培训项目的营养师塞丽娜·普恩说。“事实上,你越早将剩菜放进冰箱越好。”)”可知,文章主要探讨了剩菜是否应该放在外面冷却还是直接放入冰箱的问题,指出了两种做法的利弊,并给出了相应的建议。因此,文章的最佳标题应该是关于“在冰箱外冷却食物还是在冰箱内冷却”。故选C项。

第二节(满分25分)
67. 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。
Years ago, my daughter Hope was in a forth grade class with a group of children neighbourhood. Most of the children in Hope’s class had at least one parent working in a factory. Hope loved her class and often told me stories of her classmates, including a boy named Robert who was in trouble a lot. He always stood in the corner for poor behavior in class. I volunteered to act as “the classroom mom”, meaning brought snacks and planned parties and special outings for her class, even though I worked full-time as a social worker.
One day I saw Robert standing in the corner and asked the teacher if he could join our Mother’s Day party. She refused, saying he needed to learn a lesson. I wasn’t sure what he had done to make the teacher place him in the corner, but I felt sad for him as we ate cakes and played games while he continued to face the corner. After the party, I asked Hope what was wrong with Robert. “It seemed that he went to school only for basketball. He didn’t listen to our teacher in class and he talked back. If you were his mother, I bet he wouldn’t talk back,” Hope said. I knew Robert’s smother worked long hours in the paper-making factory. I knew she was a good woman, who found it hard to care for her four children alone. She tried her best, but I was sure there were days when she felt hopeless and was unable to manage it.
Hope said Robert often got angry in class when he didn’t know the answer to a question and couldn’t read as well as the other children. Hope’s words struck me and made me think about whether I could help Robert on a one-to-one basis. His teacher allowed me to come two days a week during my lunch break and help Robert with reading. We read second grade-level books, the highest level he could master.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150词左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
Slowly he began to master these books, almost enjoying them.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
At the end of the fourth grade, Robert and his classmates took the final exams.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Slowly he began to master these books, almost enjoying them. I also found that his thinking became more and more flexible and his learning became more and more focused. One day, when Hope came back from school, she felt very excited and a little incredible to tell me that Robert answered the teacher’s question very carefully and correctly. The teacher praised him and asked him to continue his efforts. At lunchtime the next day, when I saw Robert again, I found that he was extraordinarily happy, and his eyes flashed with excitement. Our reading task was completed smoothly. After that day, I raised the difficulty of reading for him, and gradually reached the level of grade 3 and grade 4. His performance is much better than I expected.
At the end of the fourth grade, Robert and his classmates took the final exams. After the exam, he came to our house with Hope. He told me that he thought he did well in the exam, better than ever before. I told him with a smile, “I believe you, you are a smart child, and you will become better in the future, not only in learning.” A blush flashed on his face. He came forward and hugged me, saying gently, “thank you, thank you...” I also hugged him and patted him gently on the back. I can understand his mood at the moment. No matter what the result of this exam is, I think this child’s life will become different in the future.
