What Exactly Is a Rain Forest?
Rain forests are located (位于) around the equator (赤道). It is very warm around the equator. The rain forest stays at 75°F-80°F all year round. The rain forests are wet! Very wet! In fact, rain forests can get between 160 and 300 inches of rain each year. Because the rain forests are always warm and wet, plants grow all year long.
Count on Me, and I’ll Count on You
In the rain forest, plants, animals, and people need one another to live. Almost everything that falls to the forest floor is reused. When plants and animals die, they break down and feed living plants. In turn, those plants give food and shelter (庇护所) to people, animals, and other plants. Water in the rain forest is also reused. It evaporates (蒸发), forms clouds, and then falls back to Earth as rain.
Gifts from the Rain Forest
The rain forests may seem very far away, but you use something from them every day! For example, do you like chocolate? Thank the rain forests! Rain forests are a huge source (来源) of food. Fruits such as mangoes and bananas come from the rain forests. So do many nuts, spices (香料), and vegetables.
Many medicines also come from the rain forests. One-fifth of the world’s fresh water is in the Amazon rain forest. The rain forests affect (影响) rainfall, which in turn affects climate (气候) around the world.
41. Where are rain forests?
A. Around the equator. B. All around the world,
C. In the northern part of Earth. D. In the warm and dry places.
42. What does the underlined phrase “count on” in Paragraph 2 mean in Chinese?
A. 计数 B. 使用 C. 依靠 D. 合作
43. What can we learn from the passage?
A. The rain forests are far away from our life.
B. Many plants and animals can’t live well in the rain forests
C. The rain forests provide all the fresh water in the world.
D. The rain forests affect the rainfall and the climate around the world.

According to Gallup’s annual Emotions report, people all over the world are more stressed than ever before. Nearly 40 percent of adults from 146 countries reported having experienced worry or stress the day before the survey was carried out.
And it isn’t just adults experiencing these high stress levels; experts have also found a rise in the number of children and youth. According to another study published in EurekAlert, one in five students are so stressed, they’ve considered self-harm. The huge stress they face has been proven to be harmful to their health. Stress can cause worry, anger, depression, self-harming behavior and some other problems. So how can we fight it?
It might sound easier said than done, but studies have shown that the best way to deal with stress is to change your beliefs about it.
The University of Wisconsin carried out a study of 30,000 Americans. Researchers asked them how much stress they had experienced in the past year and whether they believed stress was harming their health.
The researchers concluded that people in the study who were facing huge stress and viewed the stress as harmful had 43 percent higher risk of dying than people who viewed stress as a helpful reply.
More interestingly, those with more active beliefs about stress had the lowest risk of death out of all the people in the study, even lower than those experiencing very little stress.
A separate study carried out by researchers from King’s College London and the University of Marburg showed students with more inactive beliefs about stress felt uncomfortable. They experienced headaches and tiredness during a stressful exam period, compared with students who had more inactive beliefs about stress.
These two studies have proven that stress itself is not bad in fact. It is the belief that stress is bad that is bad. So stress harms your health if you think it does.
44. What’s the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To express the main idea. B. To show the writing order.
C. To draw a conclusion. D. To introduce the topic.
45. The underlined word “depression” in Paragraph 2 means the state of ________.
A. feeling very happy B. feeling quite confident
C. feeling very sad D. feeling quite worried
46. The underlined word “They” in Paragraph 7 refers to ________.
A. researchers from the University of Wisconsin B. researchers from King’s College London
C. students with more active beliefs about stress D. students with more inactive beliefs about stress
47. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Stress itself is not bad but helpful
B. Stress harms your health if you think it does
C. People are much more stressed than ever before
D. Adults and children are experiencing high stress levels
C
Bassanio looked at the three boxes, but he did not read the writing on them. He looked at the gold and silver.
“The world is tricked by appearances,” he said. “People often hide ordinary things with beautiful gold, silver, and jewels. People always agree with those who speak well, even if they say foolish things. Many people who seem brave are really cowards. How often do we believe in leaders who turn out to be bad?” Then Bassanio remembered the story of Midas, the man who loved gold too much. He wanted everything to be gold. He wished that he could make everything gold just by touching it. When he could, it was a disaster. He could not eat his golden food, and he was afraid to touch his daughter.
“No, I do not want these beautiful boxes of gold and silver. I will choose the lead box with its ordinary color. It speaks more to me than all the gold and silver in the world. Please give me the key to the lead box. Let happiness be mine.” Bassanio said to himself.
One of the servants gave him the key, and he went to the box and opened it. Portia was very pleased. She could not believe it, until Bassanio opened the box and saw the picture of Portia inside it. When he saw the picture, he loved her even more because the picture was very beautiful. He wondered how anyone could paint such a good picture of her. It was almost as beautiful as Portia herself. He looked at all the parts of the picture. He looked at the eyes and the hair and the eyes. All of them were perfect. But Portia herself even more beautiful than her picture.
The writing inside the box told him that he had chosen the right box. It said that he should go to Portia and look into her eyes. She would be his wife. Bassanio could not believe it. “Is it really true?” he asked. “Will you really be my wife? I am afraid to believe it until you say so.”
48. What do we know about Midas?
A He was happy to eat golden food. B. He worked hard to get gold.
C. He was afraid of his daughter. D. He showed great interest in gold.
49. What may “cowards” do when they face the difficulties?
A. Find out ways to solve them. B. Show fear and give up.
C. Ask others for help. D. Hand in the problems to others.
50. Why did Portia feel very pleased when Bassanio opened the box?
A. Because Bassanio didn’t like gold, silver or jewels.
B. Because Bassanio didn’t read the writing on the box.
C. Because she hoped to become the wife of Bassanio.
D. Because she thought the picture in the box was perfect.
51. What may be the best title of the passage?
A. Bassanio and the lead box B. Portia and her picture
C. The things in the boxes D. Tricked by appearances
D
It’s common to carry things on bikes, trains and even planes. But do you know small drones (无人机) can help carry packages to your home?
For two years, Google has been working hard in their secret research lab. Their latest project is called Project Wing.
Project Wing is Google’s invention of a drone delivery service. It is half plane and half helicopter and is slightly bigger than a seagull. It can deliver packages to buyers by drone to door.
The first drone test was made on a farm in Warwick, Australia. It sent sweets and dog treats to a farmer. The drone flew to the farm, hovered (盘旋), and dropped the package with a wire. Delivery is here!
The best thing about drone delivery services is that delivery time will be greatly cut down. You’ll be able to order what you like online in the morning. And by noontime, the delivery drone will land your package.
Throughout history, there have been different kinds of inventions that have helped people move things around, said Astro Teller, lead scientist of Google Wing, to CNN. Teller thinks Google drones will be the next big step.
Interestingly, drones are not that young. The US has been using armed drones since 2002. But drones may also get another use. Film companies have asked to use drones to shoot videos from the sky.
Yet Google’s delivery drones won’t be able to fly to buyers any time soon. However, Google has proved that drone delivery is possible. And with Amazon announcing their drone delivery service last year, the further research is going on to make delivery drones safe and suitable for buyers.
52. What is Project Wing?
A. Armed drones. B. Google’s invention. C. New apple APP. D. Wings to help people fly.
53. What’s the usage of the drone in Project Wing according to the passage?
A. Taking photos. B. Delivering packages.
C. Ordering online. D. Hovering in the sky.
54. The best thing about drone delivery services is that ________.
A. delivery time will be greatly cut down. B. drop the package with a wire.
C. deliver the packages to the door. D. land your package.
55. From the text we know that ________.
A. The first drone test was made in a company in Australia
B. You can order things online and get them by drone quickly
C. Astro Teller thinks Google will have another big step about delivery
D. Film companies can’t use drones to shoot videos

Are you an “I person” or an “E person”? _____56_____ They are part of a popular personality test called the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, or MBTI. All of the results have four letters, and there are 16 results in total. “I” and “E” refer to “introverted” (内向) and “extroverted” (外向).
____57____ For example, when an introverted person is with a group of extroverted friends, he might become more social like an “E” person.
According to scientists, this idea of temporarily (临时地) changing personalities is called “masking”. ____58____ “Human beings want to feel they belong, and they might become people-pleasers to do so,” wrote the Master Class website.
Using the MBTI result to describe someone’s personality seems fun. However, I went too far at one time. My sister was excitedly making a day-to-day travel plan. I thought of an article that “P people” don’t like to make or stick to plans, so I said to her, “You don’t seem like a ‘P person’. ” “Why?” she asked back. “Must I follow what my personality test tells me to do?”____59____
The MBTI personality test may show something you don’t know about yourself and can even be a fun ice-breaker question when meeting new friends. And that’s all it is—for fun. Knowing someone’s MBTI result doesn’t mean you really know this person. ____60____
A. Besides, don’t let the result of the test limit who you are.
B. That is hiding your true personality in specific situations.
C It was then I realized I’d taken the result too seriously.
D. These two personalities are widely discussed online.
E. No matter if we are introverted or Extroverted, we all need to understand each other.
F. Even if someone is quiet, many online discussions suggest an “I” person may act outgoing.

In the big cities with many chances, some young people are now looking at China’s countryside to chase their dreams.
Ren Yin, a 27-year-old young woman from Hongcun village in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, is one of them.
In 2017, China introduced the rural vitalization strategy (乡村振兴战略). It helps businesses, offers nice places to live and builds community spirit, making life better for people in the countryside. Ren wanted to have her own cafe and help her country. In 2022, she started a cafe in her village, just one year after she left her teaching job.
Her parents weren’t on her side at the beginning. They thought this might not be a good use of her talents. But Ren chose to follow her heart, saying that’s what her generation does.
Growing up after China’s reform and opening-up and the one-child policy (政策), Ren and others of her age are very independent. They know they want to follow their dreams, said China Youth Daily.
However, starting a cafe is not easy. Ren is thankful for the support from the villagers who helped her find a place for her cafe and improved the roads. To attract more people, she designed her cafe to look different, with a special shape and served special drinks like mountain walnut-flavored lattes (山核桃味拿铁).
But Ren knows it’s hard to keep her business going. So she hopes that when the nearby Jingshan Temple becomes a tourist attraction, it will help her cafe and other businesses in the area.
Despite (尽管) of the challenges, Ren doesn’t regret moving back to the countryside. “I think many countryside areas in China are like hidden treasures waiting to be found,” she said.
61. In which year did Ren Yin leave her teaching job?
_________________________________________
62. Why didn’t Ren Tin’s parents support her decision at first?
_________________________________________
63. How did the people in the village support her?

What Exactly Is a Rain Forest?
Rain forests are located (位于) around the equator (赤道). It is very warm around the equator. The rain forest stays at 75°F-80°F all year round. The rain forests are wet! Very wet! In fact, rain forests can get between 160 and 300 inches of rain each year. Because the rain forests are always warm and wet, plants grow all year long.
Count on Me, and I’ll Count on You
In the rain forest, plants, animals, and people need one another to live. Almost everything that falls to the forest floor is reused. When plants and animals die, they break down and feed living plants. In turn, those plants give food and shelter (庇护所) to people, animals, and other plants. Water in the rain forest is also reused. It evaporates (蒸发), forms clouds, and then falls back to Earth as rain.
Gifts from the Rain Forest
The rain forests may seem very far away, but you use something from them every day! For example, do you like chocolate? Thank the rain forests! Rain forests are a huge source (来源) of food. Fruits such as mangoes and bananas come from the rain forests. So do many nuts, spices (香料), and vegetables.
Many medicines also come from the rain forests. One-fifth of the world’s fresh water is in the Amazon rain forest. The rain forests affect (影响) rainfall, which in turn affects climate (气候) around the world.
41. Where are rain forests?
A. Around the equator. B. All around the world,
C. In the northern part of Earth. D. In the warm and dry places.
42. What does the underlined phrase “count on” in Paragraph 2 mean in Chinese?
A. 计数 B. 使用 C. 依靠 D. 合作
43. What can we learn from the passage?
A. The rain forests are far away from our life.
B. Many plants and animals can’t live well in the rain forests
C. The rain forests provide all the fresh water in the world.
D. The rain forests affect the rainfall and the climate around the world.
【答案】41. A 42. C 43. D
【解析】

According to Gallup’s annual Emotions report, people all over the world are more stressed than ever before. Nearly 40 percent of adults from 146 countries reported having experienced worry or stress the day before the survey was carried out.
And it isn’t just adults experiencing these high stress levels; experts have also found a rise in the number of children and youth. According to another study published in EurekAlert, one in five students are so stressed, they’ve considered self-harm. The huge stress they face has been proven to be harmful to their health. Stress can cause worry, anger, depression, self-harming behavior and some other problems. So how can we fight it?
It might sound easier said than done, but studies have shown that the best way to deal with stress is to change your beliefs about it.
The University of Wisconsin carried out a study of 30,000 Americans. Researchers asked them how much stress they had experienced in the past year and whether they believed stress was harming their health.
The researchers concluded that people in the study who were facing huge stress and viewed the stress as harmful had 43 percent higher risk of dying than people who viewed stress as a helpful reply.
More interestingly, those with more active beliefs about stress had the lowest risk of death out of all the people in the study, even lower than those experiencing very little stress.
A separate study carried out by researchers from King’s College London and the University of Marburg showed students with more inactive beliefs about stress felt uncomfortable. They experienced headaches and tiredness during a stressful exam period, compared with students who had more inactive beliefs about stress.
These two studies have proven that stress itself is not bad in fact. It is the belief that stress is bad that is bad. So stress harms your health if you think it does.
44. What’s the purpose of the first paragraph?
A. To express the main idea. B. To show the writing order.
C. To draw a conclusion. D. To introduce the topic.
45. The underlined word “depression” in Paragraph 2 means the state of ________.
A. feeling very happy B. feeling quite confident
C. feeling very sad D. feeling quite worried
46. The underlined word “They” in Paragraph 7 refers to ________.
A. researchers from the University of Wisconsin B. researchers from King’s College London
C. students with more active beliefs about stress D. students with more inactive beliefs about stress
47. What’s the best title for the passage?
A. Stress itself is not bad but helpful
B. Stress harms your health if you think it does
C. People are much more stressed than ever before
D. Adults and children are experiencing high stress levels
【答案】44. D 45. C 46. D 47. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了压力本身并不坏,认为压力有害才是有害的,如果你认为压力有害,那么它就会危害你的健康。
【44题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“According to Gallup’s annual Emotions report, people all over the world are more stressed than ever before. Nearly 40 percent of adults from 146 countries reported having experienced worry or stress the day before the survey was carried out.”可知,第一段引用了盖洛普的年度情绪报告,介绍了全世界的人比以往任何时候都更有压力,目的是为了引出本文的主题——压力。故选D。
【45题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“Stress can cause worry, anger,”以及后文“self-harming behavior and some other problems”可知,压力会导致担忧、愤怒……自残行为和其他一些问题,由此可推知,画线词意思与“担忧、愤怒”相近且为负面情绪的词,即“悲伤的”。故选C。
【46题详解】
词义指代题。根据第七段“A separate study carried out by researchers from King’s College London and the University of Marburg showed students with more inactive beliefs about stress felt uncomfortable. They experienced headaches and tiredness during a stressful exam period, compared with students who had more inactive beliefs about stress.”可知,画线词指代上文提到的“对压力持更消极态度的学生”,即“students with more inactive beliefs about stress”。故选D。
【47题详解】
最佳标题题。根据最后一段“These two studies have proven that stress itself is not bad in fact. It is the belief that stress is bad that is bad. So stress harms your health if you think it does.”可知,文章主要说明的是认为压力有害才是有害的,如果你认为压力有害,那么它就会危害你的健康。B选项“如果你认为压力有害,它就会危害你的健康”符合文章标题。故选B。

Bassanio looked at the three boxes, but he did not read the writing on them. He looked at the gold and silver.
“The world is tricked by appearances,” he said. “People often hide ordinary things with beautiful gold, silver, and jewels. People always agree with those who speak well, even if they say foolish things. Many people who seem brave are really cowards. How often do we believe in leaders who turn out to be bad?” Then Bassanio remembered the story of Midas, the man who loved gold too much. He wanted everything to be gold. He wished that he could make everything gold just by touching it. When he could, it was a disaster. He could not eat his golden food, and he was afraid to touch his daughter.
“No, I do not want these beautiful boxes of gold and silver. I will choose the lead box with its ordinary color. It speaks more to me than all the gold and silver in the world. Please give me the key to the lead box. Let happiness be mine.” Bassanio said to himself.
One of the servants gave him the key, and he went to the box and opened it. Portia was very pleased. She could not believe it, until Bassanio opened the box and saw the picture of Portia inside it. When he saw the picture, he loved her even more because the picture was very beautiful. He wondered how anyone could paint such a good picture of her. It was almost as beautiful as Portia herself. He looked at all the parts of the picture. He looked at the eyes and the hair and the eyes. All of them were perfect. But Portia herself even more beautiful than her picture.
The writing inside the box told him that he had chosen the right box. It said that he should go to Portia and look into her eyes. She would be his wife. Bassanio could not believe it. “Is it really true?” he asked. “Will you really be my wife? I am afraid to believe it until you say so.”
48. What do we know about Midas?
A. He was happy to eat golden food. B. He worked hard to get gold.
C. He was afraid of his daughter. D. He showed great interest in gold.
49. What may “cowards” do when they face the difficulties?
A. Find out ways to solve them. B. Show fear and give up.
C. Ask others for help. D. Hand in the problems to others.
50. Why did Portia feel very pleased when Bassanio opened the box?
A. Because Bassanio didn’t like gold, silver or jewels.
B. Because Bassanio didn’t read the writing on the box.
C. Because she hoped to become the wife of Bassanio.
D. Because she thought the picture in the box was perfect.
51. What may be the best title of the passage?

It’s common to carry things on bikes, trains and even planes. But do you know small drones (无人机) can help carry packages to your home?
For two years, Google has been working hard in their secret research lab. Their latest project is called Project Wing.
Project Wing is Google’s invention of a drone delivery service. It is half plane and half helicopter and is slightly bigger than a seagull. It can deliver packages to buyers by drone to door.
The first drone test was made on a farm in Warwick, Australia. It sent sweets and dog treats to a farmer. The drone flew to the farm, hovered (盘旋), and dropped the package with a wire. Delivery is here!
The best thing about drone delivery services is that delivery time will be greatly cut down. You’ll be able to order what you like online in the morning. And by noontime, the delivery drone will land your package.
Throughout history, there have been different kinds of inventions that have helped people move things around, said Astro Teller, lead scientist of Google Wing, to CNN. Teller thinks Google drones will be the next big step.
Interestingly, drones are not that young. The US has been using armed drones since 2002. But drones may also get another use. Film companies have asked to use drones to shoot videos from the sky.
Yet Google’s delivery drones won’t be able to fly to buyers any time soon. However, Google has proved that drone delivery is possible. And with Amazon announcing their drone delivery service last year, the further research is going on to make delivery drones safe and suitable for buyers.
52. What is Project Wing?
A. Armed drones. B. Google’s invention. C. New apple APP. D. Wings to help people fly.
53. What’s the usage of the drone in Project Wing according to the passage?
A. Taking photos. B. Delivering packages.
C. Ordering online. D. Hovering in the sky.
54. The best thing about drone delivery services is that ________.
A. delivery time will be greatly cut down. B. drop the package with a wire.
C. deliver the packages to the door. D. land your package.
55. From the text we know that ________.
A. The first drone test was made in a company in Australia
B. You can order things online and get them by drone quickly
C. Astro Teller thinks Google will have another big step about delivery
D. Film companies can’t use drones to shoot videos

Are you an “I person” or an “E person”? _____56_____ They are part of a popular personality test called the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator, or MBTI. All of the results have four letters, and there are 16 results in total. “I” and “E” refer to “introverted” (内向) and “extroverted” (外向).
____57____ For example, when an introverted person is with a group of extroverted friends, he might become more social like an “E” person.
According to scientists, this idea of temporarily (临时地) changing personalities is called “masking”. ____58____ “Human beings want to feel they belong, and they might become people-pleasers to do so,” wrote the Master Class website.
Using the MBTI result to describe someone’s personality seems fun. However, I went too far at one time. My sister was excitedly making a day-to-day travel plan. I thought of an article that “P people” don’t like to make or stick to plans, so I said to her, “You don’t seem like a ‘P person’. ” “Why?” she asked back. “Must I follow what my personality test tells me to do?”____59____
The MBTI personality test may show something you don’t know about yourself and can even be a fun ice-breaker question when meeting new friends. And that’s all it is—for fun. Knowing someone’s MBTI result doesn’t mean you really know this person. ____60____
A. Besides, don’t let the result of the test limit who you are.
B. That is hiding your true personality in specific situations.
C. It was then I realized I’d taken the result too seriously.
D. These two personalities are widely discussed online.
E. No matter if we are introverted or Extroverted, we all need to understand each other.
F. Even if someone is quiet, many online discussions suggest an “I” person may act outgoing.

请认真阅读下面短文,并根据短文内容回答问题。
In the big cities with many chances, some young people are now looking at China’s countryside to chase their dreams.
Ren Yin, a 27-year-old young woman from Hongcun village in Hangzhou, Zhejiang Province, is one of them.
In 2017, China introduced the rural vitalization strategy (乡村振兴战略). It helps businesses, offers nice places to live and builds community spirit, making life better for people in the countryside. Ren wanted to have her own cafe and help her country. In 2022, she started a cafe in her village, just one year after she left her teaching job.
Her parents weren’t on her side at the beginning. They thought this might not be a good use of her talents. But Ren chose to follow her heart, saying that’s what her generation does.
Growing up after China’s reform and opening-up and the one-child policy (政策), Ren and others of her age are very independent. They know they want to follow their dreams, said China Youth Daily.
However, starting a cafe is not easy. Ren is thankful for the support from the villagers who helped her find a place for her cafe and improved the roads. To attract more people, she designed her cafe to look different, with a special shape and served special drinks like mountain walnut-flavored lattes (山核桃味拿铁).
But Ren knows it’s hard to keep her business going. So she hopes that when the nearby Jingshan Temple becomes a tourist attraction, it will help her cafe and other businesses in the area.
Despite (尽管) of the challenges, Ren doesn’t regret moving back to the countryside. “I think many countryside areas in China are like hidden treasures waiting to be found,” she said.
61. In which year did Ren Yin leave her teaching job?
_________________________________________
62. Why didn’t Ren Tin’s parents support her decision at first?
_________________________________________
63. How did the people in the village support her?
_________________________________________
64. What’s Ren Yin’s cafe like?
_________________________________________
65 What can you learn from Ren Yin’s story? (请自拟一句话作答)
_________________________________________
【答案】61. In 2021.
62. Because they thought this might not be a good use of her talents.
63. They helped her find a place for her cafe and improved the roads.
64. It looks different, with a special shape and served special drinks like mountain walnut-flavored lattes.
65. We should dare to pursue our dreams and never give up no matter what difficulties we face.(答案不唯一,合理即可)
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了来自杭州宏村的一位27岁年轻女性任银辞职回到农村创业的故事。
【61题详解】
根据“In 2022, she started a cafe in her village, just one year after she left her teaching job.”可知,2022年她开始在村里开咖啡馆,就在她辞去教师工作一年后,因此她是在2021年辞去教师工作的。故填In 2021.
【62题详解】
根据“Her parents weren’t on her side at the beginning. They thought this might not be a good use of her talents.”可知,任银的父母一开始不支持她是因为他们认为这可能不是充分利用她的才能。故填Because they thought this might not be a good use of her talents.
【63题详解】
根据“Ren is thankful for the support from the villagers who helped her find a place for her cafe and improved the roads.”可知,村民们帮助任银找到开咖啡馆的地方,并改善了道路。故填They helped her find a place for her cafe and improved the roads.
【64题详解】
根据“To attract more people, she designed her cafe to look different, with a special shape and served special drinks like mountain walnut-flavored lattes.”可知,为了吸引更多的人,她设计的咖啡馆看起来与众不同,形状特别,还供应山核桃味的拿铁等特色饮料。故填It looks different, with a special shape and served special drinks like mountain walnut-flavored lattes.
【65题详解】
开放性作答题。通读全文,尤其是根据“Despite (尽管) of the challenges, Ren doesn’t regret moving back to the countryside. ‘I think many countryside areas in China are like hidden treasures waiting to be found,’ she said.”可知,尽管面临挑战,任银并不后悔回到农村,她认为中国许多农村地区就像隐藏的宝藏等待被发现。由此可知,从任银的故事中我们可以学到:要敢于追求自己的梦想,无论遇到什么困难都不要放弃。故填We should dare to pursue our dreams and never give up no matter what difficulties we face.
