Since the last ice age, humans have cleared nearly half of the earth’s forests and grasslands for agriculture. With the world population expanding, there’s ever-increasing pressure on farmland to produce not only more food but also clean energy. In places such as Yakima County, Washington, it’s created competition for space as land-hungry solar panels (板) consume available fields. Last month, the state approved plans to cover 1,700 acres of agricultural land with solar panels, fueling concerns over the long-term impacts of losing cropland.
A recent study from the University of California however, shows how farmers may soon harvest crops and energy together. One researcher, Majdi Abou Najm, explains that visible light spectrum (光谱) can be separated into blue and red light waves, and their photons (光子) have different properties. Blue ones have higher energy than red ones. While that gives blue light what is needed to generate power, it also results in higher temperatures. “From a plant angle, red photons are the efficient ones,” says Abou Najm. “They don’t make the plant feel hot.”
A goal of the study is to create a new generation of solar panels. He sees potential in the organic solar cells, which come from carbon-based materials. Thin and transparent, the cells are applied like a film onto various surfaces. This new technology could be used to develop special solar panels that block blue light to generate power, while passing the red light on to crops planted directly below. These panels could also provide shade for heat-sensitive fruits during the hottest part of the day.
By 2050, we’ll have two billion more people, and we’ll need more food and more energy. By maximizing the solar spectrum, “we’re making full use of an endlessly sustainable resource,” says Abou Najm. “If a technology kicks in that can develop these panels, then the sky is the limit on how efficient we can be.”
24. What problem does the first paragraph focus on?
A. Losing cropland to solar panels.
B. Distribution of the world population.
C. Reduction in forests and grasslands.
D. Competing for land between farmers.
25. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Generation of solar power.
B. Hot weather increasing efficiency.
C. Blue photons having higher energy.
D. Separation of visible light spectrum.
26. What do we know about the organic solar cells?
A. They make fruits heat-sensitive.
B. They can cool down in hot days,
C. They allow red light to pass through.
D. They can store carbon-based materials.
27. What does Abou Najm think of the future of the new solar panels?
A. Limited. B. Promising.
C. Uncertain. D. Challenging.
C
South Baltimore is often thought of as a place to avoid—folks are taught to be careful of it. There was a mass shooting this past July, and another in early September.
“People think Curtis Bay is a dangerous place. It’s not. It’s just we’re surrounded by dangerous things,” says Taysia Thompson, 17.
Taysia, is one of the Free Your Voice members, a group of student activists fighting against a very different kind of danger in their neighborhood: air pollution and climate change. Now, the focus of their movement is the mountains of coal. Coal releases a fine, black dust small enough to get into people’s lungs. It makes respiratory (呼吸的) diseases worse, or can even cause disease and premature death. And there are the greenhouse gas emissions after the coal is burned.
The teens of Free Your Voice are taking on a big opponent: the massive goods transportation company CSX, which transported more than 8 million tons of coal through South Baltimore in 2021. The goal is to eventually get the state regulators to deny the permit that CSX needs to operate, or at least require the company to enclose all the coal, or at the very least put water onto all of it so there’s less dust blowing around.
This past summer, Taysia and three other students spent their time gathering evidence to try and get the coal pollution out of their neighborhood. They used sticky paper to gather samples of dust from all over the neighborhood to prove that the dust is from coal. They are also sending dust samples to a scientist in California, who uses an electron microscope to compare the dust that’s in this neighborhood to samples from the piles of coal at the terminal in South Baltimore to see if it matches.
The students now have support from their community. But the responses from officials have not been very satisfying. “Everyone is just breathing the air. And we will keep fighting.” says Taysia.
28. Why do the teens of Free Your Voice take CSX as an opponent?
A. To cure lung diseases. B. To tackle air pollution.
C. To resist mass shootings. D. To cut premature death rate.
29. What do the teens of Free Your Voice hope to achieve?
A. Scientists will examine the dust samples.
B. Officials will refuse CSX the operation permit.
C. State regulators will keep fighting against pollution.
D. Locals in Curtis Bay will clear the mountains of coal away.
30. What can be inferred about the teens’ fight?
A. It isn’t all plain sailing. B. It will definitely end in victory.
C. The teens lack solid evidence. D. The teens work on it all by themselves.
31. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Tourists Avoiding Dangerous South Baltimore
B. Teens Gaining Support in Environmental Protection
C. Student Activists Pushing back against Big Polluter
D. 17-year-old Girl Combating Coal Pollution in Neighborhood
D
A satellite is an object in space that orbits around another. It has two kinds — natural satellites and artificial satellites. The moon is a natural satellite that moves around the earth while artificial satellites are those made by man.
Despite their widespread impact on daily life, artificial satellites mainly depend on different complicated makeups. On the outside, they may look like a wheel, equipped with solar panels or sails. Inside, the satellites contain mission-specific scientific instruments, which include whatever tools the satellites need to perform their work. Among them, high-resolution cameras and communication electronics are typical ones. Besides, the part that carries the load and holds all the parts together is called the bus.
Artificial satellites operate in a systematic way just like humans. Computers function as the satellite’s brain, which receive information, interpret it, and send messages back to the earth. Advanced digital cameras serve as the satellite’s eyes. Sensors are other important parts that not only recognize light, heat, and gases, but also record changes in what is being observed. Radios on the satellite send information back to the earth. Solar panels provide electrical power for the computers and other equipment, as well as the power to move the satellite forward.
Artificial satellites use gravity to stay in their orbits. Earth’s gravity pulls everything toward the center of the planet. To stay in the earth’s orbit, the speed of a satellite must adjust to the tiniest changes in the pull of gravity. The satellite’s speed works against earth’s gravity just enough so that it doesn’t go speeding into space or falling back to the earth.
Rockets carry satellites to different types and heights of orbits, based on the tasks they need to perform. Satellites closer to the earth are in low-earth orbit, which can be 200-500 miles high. The closer to the earth, the stronger the gravity is. Therefore, these satellites must travel at about 17,000 miles per hour to keep from falling back to the earth, while higher-orbiting satellites can travel more slowly.
32. What is Paragraph 2 of the text mainly about?
A. The appearance of artificial satellites. B. The components of artificial satellites.
C. The basic function of artificial satellites. D. The specific mission of artificial satellites.
33. What is the role of computers in artificial satellites?
A. Providing electrical power. B. Recording changes observed.
C. Monitoring space environment. D. Processing information received.
34. How do artificial satellites stay in their orbits?
A. By relying on powerful rockets to get out of gravity.
B. By orbiting at a fixed speed regardless of gravity’s pull.
C. By changing speed constantly based on the pull of gravity.
D. By resisting the pull of gravity with advanced technologies.
35. Why do satellites in higher-earth orbit travel more slowly?
A. They are more affected by earth’s gravity.
B. They take advantage of rockets more effectively.
C. They have weaker pull of gravity in higher orbits.
D. They are equipped with more advanced instruments.

“Not again!” Aliya shouted angrily, looking at the marks she had attained in her maths test.
It seemed as if failing in the math test had become a part and parcel of her life. Despite her efforts, she had been unable to perform well. Tears in her eyes, she quickly shoved (乱塞) the paper into her bag before any classmate could make a rude comment on her.
Effortlessly, using the back of her palm, she was wiping the tears when her teacher Mrs Leena noticed her. She came to Aliya’s desk and, in a soft voice, asked her to see her during the break time.
Wondering what it could be, Aliya waited impatiently for lunchtime. Finally, when the bell rang, she made her way to Mrs Leena. As soon as she saw Aliya, she gestured for her to sit on the empty chair beside her.
She carefully studied her face, cleared her throat with a bright smile and said, “You seem to be anxious. I think I know what’s bothering you. If you allow me I think together we may come up with a good solution.”
With a puzzled look, she said, “Well ma’am, you know I have been struggling in maths since the beginning of the term. It seems as if no matter how hard I work, I am unable to get the desired result. I feel so upset,” she said sadly.
“You need not be so gloomy,” encouraged Mrs Leena. “With these three key ingredients: hard work, determination and resilience (韧性), you will move ahead and succeed. It’s always the first step that’s difficult, but once you decide not to look back and not give up, you will be successful, my dear. Come on, gather yourself and let’s work on it together.”
From that day onwards, Aliya worked hard, religiously following her teacher’s advice. By the time the final exams drew close, she had thoroughly revised her math book and well-prepared.

【解析】
【原文】W: Good evening, everyone. I recently learnt Arabic in Cairo as part of my degree. My interest in the language was due to the passion of our Arabic lecturer and as the course progressed, my interest in the culture also grew with it. I considered studying in the Middle East, but ultimately decided on Cairo due to its energetic cultural scene. However, in the city, we faced some challenges, including difficulties finding a hotel and accommodation as we were a group of unmarried individuals. Once settled, the culture shock was intense for some of us. One member of our group returned home within the first week. Luckily I became accustomed to the life in Cairo gradually. The biggest challenge of learning Arabic is the disconnection between the written and the spoken forms. Despite these challenges, learning Arabic has been a rewarding experience, including absorbing myself in the culture and getting to know the locals and even negotiating at a local market. Highlights were being invited to a traditional Arabic meal at one of the locals’ home and being able to confidently communicate. Overall, this experience was outside of my comfort zone and allowed me to learn and grow in interesting ways. I encourage others to consider involving themselves in new cultures and languages. Thanks for listening.

Since the last ice age, humans have cleared nearly half of the earth’s forests and grasslands for agriculture. With the world population expanding, there’s ever-increasing pressure on farmland to produce not only more food but also clean energy. In places such as Yakima County, Washington, it’s created competition for space as land-hungry solar panels (板) consume available fields. Last month, the state approved plans to cover 1,700 acres of agricultural land with solar panels, fueling concerns over the long-term impacts of losing cropland.
A recent study from the University of California, however, shows how farmers may soon harvest crops and energy together. One researcher, Majdi Abou Najm, explains that visible light spectrum (光谱) can be separated into blue and red light waves, and their photons (光子) have different properties. Blue ones have higher energy than red ones. While that gives blue light what is needed to generate power, it also results in higher temperatures. “From a plant angle, red photons are the efficient ones,” says Abou Najm. “They don’t make the plant feel hot.”
A goal of the study is to create a new generation of solar panels. He sees potential in the organic solar cells, which come from carbon-based materials. Thin and transparent, the cells are applied like a film onto various surfaces. This new technology could be used to develop special solar panels that block blue light to generate power, while passing the red light on to crops planted directly below. These panels could also provide shade for heat-sensitive fruits during the hottest part of the day.
By 2050, we’ll have two billion more people, and we’ll need more food and more energy. By maximizing the solar spectrum, “we’re making full use of an endlessly sustainable resource,” says Abou Najm. “If a technology kicks in that can develop these panels, then the sky is the limit on how efficient we can be.”
24. What problem does the first paragraph focus on?
A. Losing cropland to solar panels.
B. Distribution of the world population.
C. Reduction in forests and grasslands.
D. Competing for land between farmers.
25. What does the underlined word “that” in paragraph 2 refer to?
A. Generation of solar power.
B. Hot weather increasing efficiency.
C. Blue photons having higher energy.
D. Separation of visible light spectrum.
26. What do we know about the organic solar cells?
A They make fruits heat-sensitive.
B. They can cool down in hot days,
C. They allow red light to pass through.
D. They can store carbon-based materials.
27. What does Abou Najm think of the future of the new solar panels?
A. Limited. B. Promising.
C. Uncertain. D. Challenging.
【答案】24. A 25. C 26. C 27. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了一项研究表明,可以通过开发新一代太阳能电池板来收获红色和蓝色光波,分别满足农业和发电的需要,最大限度地利用太阳能。
【24题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中的“With the world population expanding, there’s ever-increasing pressure on farmland to produce not only more food but also clean energy. In places such as Yakima County, Washington, it’s created competition for space as land-hungry solar panels (板) consume available fields. Last month, the state approved plans to cover 1,700 acres of agricultural land with solar panels, fueling concerns over the long-term impacts of losing cropland.(随着世界人口的增长,农田不仅要生产更多的粮食,还要生产清洁能源,农田的压力越来越大。在华盛顿州亚基马县等地,由于需要土地的太阳能电池板消耗了可用的田地,这就造成了空间竞争。上个月,该州批准了用太阳能电池板覆盖1700英亩农田的计划,这加剧了人们对失去农田的长期影响的担忧。)”可知,第一段主要讲述了太阳能电池板占据农田,导致农田空间减少。故选A。
【25题详解】
代词指代题。that为指示代词,常用来指代上文提到的事物。根据画线词前一句“Blue ones have higher energy than red ones.(蓝色的光子比红色的光子能量高。)”可知,that指代的是蓝色光子有更高的能量,更高的能量给予了产生电所需的蓝光。故选C。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“This new technology could be used to develop special solar panels that block blue light to generate power, while passing the red light on to crops planted directly below.(这项新技术可以用于开发特殊的太阳能电池板,该电池板可以阻挡蓝光发电,同时让红光传给正下方种植的作物。)”可知,这种有机太阳能电池板能够阻挡蓝光,让红光通过。故选C。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“By maximizing the solar spectrum, ‘we’re making full use of an endlessly sustainable resource,’ says Abou Najm. ‘If a technology kicks in that can develop these panels, then the sky is the limit on how efficient we can be.’(Abou Najm说,通过最大限度地利用太阳能光谱,‘我们正在充分利用无尽的可持续资源。’‘如能够开发出这些面板的果一项技术生效,那么我们的效率就是无限的。’)”可知,Abou Najm认为有机太阳能电池板能够最大限度地利用无尽的太阳能资源,让人类的效率变得无限,由此可推测出,他认为有机太阳能电池板非常有前景。故选B。
C
South Baltimore is often thought of as a place to avoid—folks are taught to be careful of it. There was a mass shooting this past July, and another in early September.
“People think Curtis Bay is a dangerous place. It’s not. It’s just we’re surrounded by dangerous things,” says Taysia Thompson, 17.
Taysia, is one of the Free Your Voice members, a group of student activists fighting against a very different kind of danger in their neighborhood: air pollution and climate change. Now, the focus of their movement is the mountains of coal. Coal releases a fine, black dust small enough to get into people’s lungs. It makes respiratory (呼吸的) diseases worse, or can even cause disease and premature death. And there are the greenhouse gas emissions after the coal is burned.
The teens of Free Your Voice are taking on a big opponent: the massive goods transportation company CSX, which transported more than 8 million tons of coal through South Baltimore in 2021. The goal is to eventually get the state regulators to deny the permit that CSX needs to operate, or at least require the company to enclose all the coal, or at the very least put water onto all of it so there’s less dust blowing around.
This past summer, Taysia and three other students spent their time gathering evidence to try and get the coal pollution out of their neighborhood. They used sticky paper to gather samples of dust from all over the neighborhood to prove that the dust is from coal. They are also sending dust samples to a scientist in California, who uses an electron microscope to compare the dust that’s in this neighborhood to samples from the piles of coal at the terminal in South Baltimore to see if it matches.
The students now have support from their community. But the responses from officials have not been very satisfying. “Everyone is just breathing the air. And we will keep fighting.” says Taysia.
28. Why do the teens of Free Your Voice take CSX as an opponent?
A. To cure lung diseases. B. To tackle air pollution.
C. To resist mass shootings. D. To cut premature death rate.
29. What do the teens of Free Your Voice hope to achieve?
A. Scientists will examine the dust samples.
B. Officials will refuse CSX the operation permit.
C. State regulators will keep fighting against pollution.
D. Locals in Curtis Bay will clear the mountains of coal away.
30. What can be inferred about the teens’ fight?
A. It isn’t all plain sailing. B. It will definitely end in victory.
C. The teens lack solid evidence. D. The teens work on it all by themselves.
31. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Tourists Avoiding Dangerous South Baltimore
B. Teens Gaining Support in Environmental Protection
C. Student Activists Pushing back against Big Polluter
D. 17-year-old Girl Combating Coal Pollution in Neighborhood
【答案】28. B 29. B 30. A 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章主要讲述了位于南巴尔的一群学生活动家——Free Your Voice成员,他们致力于与莫尔地区存在空气污染问题作斗争。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第三段“Taysia, is one of the Free Your Voice members, a group of student activists fighting against a very different kind of danger in their neighborhood: air pollution and climate change. Now, the focus of their movement is the mountains of coal. Coal releases a fine, black dust small enough to get into people’s lungs. It makes respiratory (呼吸的) diseases worse, or can even cause disease and premature death. And there are the greenhouse gas emissions after the coal is burned. (Taysia是Free Your Voice的成员之一,这是一群学生活动家,他们与社区中一种截然不同的危险作斗争:空气污染和气候变化。现在,他们运动的焦点是堆积如山的煤炭。煤会释放出细小的黑色尘埃,小到足以进入人们的肺部。它使呼吸系统疾病恶化,甚至可能导致疾病和过早死亡。还有煤炭燃烧后的温室气体排放。)”以及第四段中“The teens of Free Your Voice are taking on a big opponent: the massive goods transportation company CSX, which transported more than 8 million tons of coal through South Baltimore in 2021. (Free Your Voice 的青少年们正在面对一个巨大的对手:大型货物运输公司CSX,该公司在2021年通过南巴尔的摩运输了超过800万吨煤炭。)”可知,Free Your Voice的青少年将CSX作为对手是为了解决空气污染问题,故选B项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段中“The goal is to eventually get the state regulators to deny the permit that CSX needs to operate, or at least require the company to enclose all the coal, or at the very least put water onto all of it so there’s less dust blowing around. (目标是最终让州监管机构拒绝CSX运营所需的许可证,或者至少要求公司封闭所有煤炭,或者至少将水浇灌到所有煤炭上,以减少灰尘的吹动。)”可知,Free Your Voice的青少年希望实现的目标是让官方拒绝CSX的运营许可,故选B项。
【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段中“The students now have support from their community. But the responses from officials have not been very satisfying. (学生们现在得到了社区的支持。但官员们的回应并不是很令人满意。)”可知,官员并不支持,能推断出他们的抗争并非一帆风顺,故选A项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第二段中“Taysia, is one of the Free Your Voice members, a group of student activists fighting against a very different kind of danger in their neighborhood: air pollution and climate change. (Taysia 是 Free Your Voice 的成员之一,这是一群学生活动家,他们与社区中一种截然不同的危险作斗争:空气污染和气候变化)” 可知,由学生活动人士组成的组织Free Your Voice,致力于改善巴尔的摩当地由煤炭带来的空气污染,尤其是运输煤炭的污染大户——大型货物运输公司CSX。由此可知,C项“学生积极分子反对污染大户”最适合作本文的标题,故选C项。
D
A satellite is an object in space that orbits around another. It has two kinds — natural satellites and artificial satellites. The moon is a natural satellite that moves around the earth while artificial satellites are those made by man.
Despite their widespread impact on daily life, artificial satellites mainly depend on different complicated makeups. On the outside, they may look like a wheel, equipped with solar panels or sails. Inside, the satellites contain mission-specific scientific instruments, which include whatever tools the satellites need to perform their work. Among them, high-resolution cameras and communication electronics are typical ones. Besides, the part that carries the load and holds all the parts together is called the bus.
Artificial satellites operate in a systematic way just like humans. Computers function as the satellite’s brain, which receive information, interpret it, and send messages back to the earth. Advanced digital cameras serve as the satellite’s eyes. Sensors are other important parts that not only recognize light, heat, and gases, but also record changes in what is being observed. Radios on the satellite send information back to the earth. Solar panels provide electrical power for the computers and other equipment, as well as the power to move the satellite forward.
Artificial satellites use gravity to stay in their orbits. Earth’s gravity pulls everything toward the center of the planet. To stay in the earth’s orbit, the speed of a satellite must adjust to the tiniest changes in the pull of gravity. The satellite’s speed works against earth’s gravity just enough so that it doesn’t go speeding into space or falling back to the earth.
Rockets carry satellites to different types and heights of orbits, based on the tasks they need to perform. Satellites closer to the earth are in low-earth orbit, which can be 200-500 miles high. The closer to the earth, the stronger the gravity is. Therefore, these satellites must travel at about 17,000 miles per hour to keep from falling back to the earth, while higher-orbiting satellites can travel more slowly.
32. What is Paragraph 2 of the text mainly about?
A. The appearance of artificial satellites. B. The components of artificial satellites.
C. The basic function of artificial satellites. D. The specific mission of artificial satellites.
33. What is the role of computers in artificial satellites?
A. Providing electrical power. B. Recording changes observed.
C. Monitoring space environment. D. Processing information received.
34. How do artificial satellites stay in their orbits?
A. By relying on powerful rockets to get out of gravity.
B. By orbiting at a fixed speed regardless of gravity’s pull.
C. By changing speed constantly based on the pull of gravity.
D. By resisting the pull of gravity with advanced technologies.
35. Why do satellites in higher-earth orbit travel more slowly?
A. They are more affected by earth’s gravity.
B. They take advantage of rockets more effectively.
C. They have weaker pull of gravity in higher orbits.
D. They are equipped with more advanced instruments.
【答案】32. B 33. D 34. C 35. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了人造卫星的组成、运行方式和速度等基本情况。
【32题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第二段“On the outside, they may look like a wheel, equipped with solar panels or sails. Inside, the satellites contain mission-specific scientific instruments, which include whatever tools the satellites need to perform their work.(在外面,它们可能看起来像一个轮子,配备了太阳能电池板或帆。卫星内部装有特定任务的科学仪器,其中包括卫星执行工作所需的任何工具)”可知,文章第二段主要讲的是人造卫星的组成部分。故选B项。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“Computers function as the satellite’s brain, which receive information, interpret it, and send messages back to the earth.(计算机就像卫星的大脑一样,接收信息,解释信息,并将信息发回地球)”可知,计算机在人造卫星中的作用是处理接收到的信息。故选D项。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“Artificial satellites use gravity to stay in their orbits. Earth’s gravity pulls everything toward the center of the planet. To stay in the earth’s orbit, the speed of a satellite must adjust to the tiniest changes in the pull of gravity.(人造卫星利用重力保持在轨道上。地球的引力把所有东西都拉向地球的中心。为了保持在地球轨道上运行,卫星的速度必须根据引力最微小的变化进行调整)”可知,人造卫星是通过在重力的作用下不断改变速度保持在轨道上的。故选C项。
【35题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“The closer to the earth, the stronger the gravity is. Therefore, these satellites must travel at about 17,000 miles per hour to keep from falling back to the earth, while higher-orbiting satellites can travel more slowly.(离地球越近,引力就越强。因此,这些卫星必须以每小时17000英里的速度运行,以防止落回地球,而轨道较高的卫星运行速度更慢)”可知,高地球轨道上的卫星运行速度较慢是因为它们在高轨道上的引力较弱。故选C项。

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。
“Not again!” Aliya shouted angrily, looking at the marks she had attained in her maths test.
It seemed as if failing in the math test had become a part and parcel of her life. Despite her efforts, she had been unable to perform well. Tears in her eyes, she quickly shoved (乱塞) the paper into her bag before any classmate could make a rude comment on her.
Effortlessly, using the back of her palm, she was wiping the tears when her teacher Mrs Leena noticed her. She came to Aliya’s desk and, in a soft voice, asked her to see her during the break time.
Wondering what it could be, Aliya waited impatiently for lunchtime. Finally, when the bell rang, she made her way to Mrs Leena. As soon as she saw Aliya, she gestured for her to sit on the empty chair beside her.
She carefully studied her face, cleared her throat with a bright smile and said, “You seem to be anxious. I think I know what’s bothering you. If you allow me I think together we may come up with a good solution.”
With a puzzled look, she said, “Well ma’am, you know I have been struggling in maths since the beginning of the term. It seems as if no matter how hard I work, I am unable to get the desired result. I feel so upset,” she said sadly.
“You need not be so gloomy,” encouraged Mrs Leena. “With these three key ingredients: hard work, determination and resilience (韧性), you will move ahead and succeed. It’s always the first step that’s difficult, but once you decide not to look back and not give up, you will be successful, my dear. Come on, gather yourself and let’s work on it together.”
From that day onwards, Aliya worked hard, religiously following her teacher’s advice. By the time the final exams drew close, she had thoroughly revised her math book and well-prepared.

【答案】On the exam day, a fear of failure upset her stomach. Aliya's heart raced as she sat down in front of the desk. She took a deep breath, trying to recall the encouragement from Mrs. Leena. As she began the test, the questions seemed difficult at first, but she pushed through, step by step, using the strategies she had learned. With each question she completed, her confidence grew. By the end of the exam, Aliya felt a sense of accomplishment, not because she was sure she had aced it, but because she had faced her fears and given it her all.
She passed her math exam with an unbelievable A grade on her report card. The moment she saw the grade, tears of joy welled up in her eyes. It wasn't just a grade. It was a testament to her hard work, her teacher's unwavering support, and the resilience she had found within herself. Aliya left the room with her head held high, no longer the student who dreaded math, but a young woman who had conquered her fears and believed in her abilities.
