A Chinese student studying in the UK shared a heartwarming story online about her tutor who quit her job to pursue a unique mission: knitting sweaters for penguins in Antarctica. The tutor’s email reply to the student read, “Thank you for your email. I have left to pursue my dream of making sweaters for penguins in Antarctica and no longer work for the School of Economics. I will be out of office on a permanent, indefinite, open-ended basis until my penguin friends are happy. “
This act of kindness is part of a larger charity initiative that began after a major oil spill near Phillip Island, Australia, in the late 1990s. The spill severely affected the local penguin population, leading to a decline in their numbers and health over the following breeding seasons. When little penguins become oiled, they will try to clean the poisonous oil from their feathers with their beaks (喙), and ingesting it can kill them. It also damages their delicate feathers, which exposes their skin to extreme temperatures and they are left cold, heavy and unable to swim or hunt for food.
In response to such incidents, the Penguin Foundation and Phillip Island Nature Parks launched a campaign urging knitting enthusiasts worldwide to knit sweaters for the affected penguins. These sweaters serve a dual purpose: they provide temporary warmth and prevent the penguins from reaching their oily feathers with their beaks. The last significant oil spill around Phillip Island occurred in 2001, affecting 438 little penguins. With the help of these sweaters, 96% of then were successfully rescued and released back into the wild.
The penguin jumper program has been running for over 20 years, and during this time, more than 200, 000 sweaters have been knitted for penguins by generous knitters across the globe.
While some argue that the sweaters could potentially add extra pressure to the penguins’ bodies or cause them to overheat, the Penguin Foundation explains that the sweaters are used temporarily to keep penguins warm before their bodies are washed and feathers recover. Besides, penguins need sweaters made of all woo. Only those sweaters that meet the standard for wear can be received by the Penguin Foundation.
24. Why did the tutor quit her job?
A. She was more attracted to knitting.
B She decided to protect penguins in Antarctica.
C. She was dissatisfied with the School of Economics.
D. She was offered a position at the Penguin Foundation.
25. What does the underlined word “ingesting” mean in the paragraph 2?
A. Taking in. B. Feeding on. C. Breathing in. D. Sweeping away.
26. What harm will the oil spill cause to the penguins?
A. It will make them overheated. B. It will pose a threat to their survival.
C. It will make them more visible to the hunters. D. It will make them overweight and unhealthy.
27. Which of the following would be the best title for the article?
A. Antarctic Penguins: A Call for Sweaters.
B. Knitting for Conservation: A Global Issue.
C. Antarctic Oil Spills: A Disaster on Penguins.
D. Warmth in Every Stitch: Tutor Quits for Penguins.
C
Many concepts that are central to the human experience are abstract, such as relationships, ideas, and time — things we can’t directly see or touch. We commonly use concrete language to talk and think about these things, often through metaphors.
Using metaphors is far more than a poetic device of factual statements. A study conducted at Purchase College found that metaphors can frame people’s perspectives, thus shaping their reasoning and subsequent actions. For example, describing the effort to stop climate change as a “war” rather than a “race” caused people to feel more urgency about reducing emissions.
Another example is the lightbulb metaphor commonly used to describe new ideas, suggesting that new thoughts appear suddenly like a light switch being turned on. However, this metaphor implies that new ideas come effortlessly and are accessible only to a select few geniuses, such as Isaac Newton, who supposedly developed his theory of gravity from a sudden insight about a falling apple. It may lead people to question their capability to generate new ideas, and as a behavioral consequence, people may underestimate the role of hard work and continuous learning in bringing about change.
An alternative way to describe ideas is by comparing new thoughts to seeds that fall on fertile ground and if cared for, will grow and develop over time. Different from the lightbulb metaphor, the seed metaphor implies an understanding that generating new ideas is a laborious process, which requires time and effort. It also suggests that anybody can be the cultivator of ideas as long as they put their mind to it.
The subtle effects of metaphors show how powerful language can be, even though we often don’t realize it. Who’d have thought a simple use of a lightbulb metaphor could profoundly affect how we understand the concept of innovation? Given the nature of our metaphorical minds, it is worth asking: are our metaphors suitable? We owe it to ourselves and others to use metaphors appropriately. These choices, conscious or not, can be constructive or destructive.
28. What does the study find about metaphors?
A. They help clarify abstract concepts. B. They may cause some misunderstanding.
C. They make language more poetic and vivid. D. They can influence people’s minds and behavior.
29. Why is the example of “lightbulb metaphor” quoted in paragraph 3?
A. To raise some doubt about metaphors. B. To highlight improper use of metaphors.
C. To illustrate poetic functions of metaphors. D. To demonstrate the influence of metaphors.
30. How does the “seed metaphor” differ from the “lightbulb metaphor”?
A. It suggests consistent efforts of individuals. B. It attaches great significance to natural talent.
C. It arouses people’s awareness of their creativity. D. It simplifies the process of generating new ideas.
31. What is author’s attitude towards the use of metaphors?
A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Cautious. D. Ambiguous.
D
Until now it has been impossible to peer into the human mind, but new biometric (生物计量的) and machine learning tools are changing this. Assuming people approve of these technologies monitoring them, researchers can collect real-time facial analysis and eye-movement data using webcams, and therefore recognize subconscious facial-expressions when people are engaged with different urban scenes.
Our research group at Tufts University has conducted a number of facial analysis and eye-tracking studies, using iMotions Online AFFDEX facial coding software to track 51 participants’ real-time visual attention and facial expressions in response to images and videos of Memorial Drive in Cambridge. We captured similar images of the same stretch of road with and without cars and compared our participants’ emotional reactions to both types of images. The system records a person’s eye movements and facial expressions with a camera. Then the software uses an algorithm (算法) to score whether a participant displayed positive, negative or neutral emotions during each millisecond of the study based on subtle movements in their facial muscles.
In its results, although our participants expressed neutral emotions in response to the images 85 percent of the time, participants spent on average 0.4 percent more time expressing positive emotions in response to vehicleless images and videos. While seemingly a small difference, any measurable effect from a still image can signal something worth considering. And after several follow-up researches, we did find that cars absorbed people naturally, whereas people’s emotional responses are more negative while looking at them.
Scientists and urban planners globally are beginning to polish biometric tools to understand these kinds of behavioral responses to urban and architectural elements. Natural elements like trees are less foreign to our brain than car-related infrastructure like traffic lights, and accord better with our in-born preferences. Furthermore, natural design elements make it easier for humans to relax and enjoy their surroundings as they reflect the natural surroundings of our environment. Car-free spaces are important in community building. Some studies have taken these biometric tools out of the lab, but more work is still needed to test these human behavioral responses in real-world conditions.
32. How did the researchers reach the conclusion?
A. By making an assumption. B. By using webcams.
C. By analyzing collected data. D. By using a coding software.
33. According to the research conducted by Tults University, ________.
A. a still image is worth more consideration
B. images without vehicles could thrill participants
C. most participants were neutral about the research
D. images with vehicles might well capture participants
34. What can be inferred from this passage?
A. Biometric tools can improve people’s emotional states.
B. The research findings might help guide urban planning.
C. Happiness and the number of cars are positively related.
D. Human consciousness can be transformed by biometric tools.
35. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Biometrictools help decode human perception.
B. Biometrics suggests car-free cities in the future.
C. Biometrictools make for a better environment.
D. Biometrics promotes urban planning and building.

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。
The summer I turned 16, my father gave me his 69 Chevy Malibu convertible (敞篷车). Beautifully repainted cherry red with V-8 engine—it was a gift wasted on me at that age. What did I know about classic cars? The important thing was that Hannah and I could drive around Tucson with the top down.
Hannah was my best friend, a year younger but much taller, almost five foot ten.“Hannah’s a beautiful girl,” my mother always said. And sure enough, that summer she signed with a modeling agency. She was already doing runway work .
A month after my birthday, Hannah and I went to the movies. On the way home, we stopped at the McDonald’s drive-through, putting the fries on the seat between us to share. “Let’s ride around a-while,” I said. It was a clear night, oven-warm, full moon casting low over the desert. Making a turn too fast, I hit a patch of dirt and the back of the car slid to the other side. I then drove through a neighbor’s landscape wall and knocked into a full-grown palm. The front wheels came to rest half way up the tree trunk.
There were French fries on the floor, the dash (仪表盘), and my lap. An impossible amount of blood was on Hannah’s face, flaps of skin hanging into her eyes. They took us in separate ambulances. In the ER, my parents spoke quietly: “Best plastic surgeon in the city…but it is more likely to be the end of her modeling career.…”
We’d been wearing lap belts, but the car didn’t have shoulder bands. I’d broken my cheek bone on the steering wheel; Hannah’s forehead had split wide open on the dash. What would I say to her?
When her mother, Sharon, came into my hospital room, I started to cry, preparing myself for her anger. She sat beside me and took my hand. “I rear-ended (追尾) my best friend when I was your age,” she said. “I destroyed her car and mine.” “I’m so sorry.” I said, knowing Sharon was trying her best to comfort me and helping me out of my terrible sense of guilt and self-blame.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150词左右。
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“The most important is that you’re both alive. I forgive you and Hannah will too.” She said.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Sharon’s forgiveness allowed Hannah and me to return to our normal life.

【原文】 W: Welcome to the international language college. It’s a beautiful place that is well worth visiting in this city. As freshmen, you might find it difficult to find your way in the college, so we will take you on a quick tour. The college used to have four departments: English, French, German and Russian, but now there is a Chinese department as well and we are going to set up a Spanish department soon. At the moment we’ re outside the English department. In the English department there are over 200 students, 30 students in each class. We have 50 teachers, including 20 professors in this department. The teachers are all from different places, mainly from the U.S.A. and Australia, with a few from England and Canada. All of your classes will be here in this building. In the French department, there are over 150 students and 40 teachers mainly from France and Canada. In the Russian department, we have more than 120 students, and 28 teachers from Russia. Now, let’s walk over to the main library which is the largest building in the college. But I must remind you that this tour doesn’t include a visit to the reading rooms. There are many students on weekdays. They need quiet. I’m afraid we don’t do visits on any weekday during working hours. If you do want to see these rooms, the only day there are tours is on Sundays, because the library is closed for maintenance on Saturday.

A Chinese student studying in the UK shared a heartwarming story online about her tutor who quit her job to pursue a unique mission: knitting sweaters for penguins in Antarctica. The tutor’s email reply to the student read, “Thank you for your email. I have left to pursue my dream of making sweaters for penguins in Antarctica and no longer work for the School of Economics. I will be out of office on a permanent, indefinite, open-ended basis until my penguin friends are happy. “
This act of kindness is part of a larger charity initiative that began after a major oil spill near Phillip Island, Australia, in the late 1990s. The spill severely affected the local penguin population, leading to a decline in their numbers and health over the following breeding seasons. When little penguins become oiled, they will try to clean the poisonous oil from their feathers with their beaks (喙), and ingesting it can kill them. It also damages their delicate feathers, which exposes their skin to extreme temperatures and they are left cold, heavy and unable to swim or hunt for food.
In response to such incidents, the Penguin Foundation and Phillip Island Nature Parks launched a campaign urging knitting enthusiasts worldwide to knit sweaters for the affected penguins. These sweaters serve a dual purpose: they provide temporary warmth and prevent the penguins from reaching their oily feathers with their beaks. The last significant oil spill around Phillip Island occurred in 2001, affecting 438 little penguins. With the help of these sweaters, 96% of then were successfully rescued and released back into the wild.
The penguin jumper program has been running for over 20 years, and during this time, more than 200, 000 sweaters have been knitted for penguins by generous knitters across the globe.
While some argue that the sweaters could potentially add extra pressure to the penguins’ bodies or cause them to overheat, the Penguin Foundation explains that the sweaters are used temporarily to keep penguins warm before their bodies are washed and feathers recover. Besides, penguins need sweaters made of all woo. Only those sweaters that meet the standard for wear can be received by the Penguin Foundation.
24. Why did the tutor quit her job?
A. She was more attracted to knitting.
B. She decided to protect penguins in Antarctica.
C. She was dissatisfied with the School of Economics.
D. She was offered a position at the Penguin Foundation.
25. What does the underlined word “ingesting” mean in the paragraph 2?
A. Taking in. B. Feeding on. C. Breathing in. D. Sweeping away.
26 What harm will the oil spill cause to the penguins?
A. It will make them overheated. B. It will pose a threat to their survival.
C. It will make them more visible to the hunters. D. It will make them overweight and unhealthy.
27. Which of the following would be the best title for the article?
A. Antarctic Penguins: A Call for Sweaters.
B. Knitting for Conservation: A Global Issue.
C. Antarctic Oil Spills: A Disaster on Penguins.
D. Warmth in Every Stitch: Tutor Quits for Penguins.
【答案】24. B 25. A 26. B 27. D

C
Many concepts that are central to the human experience are abstract, such as relationships, ideas, and time — things we can’t directly see or touch. We commonly use concrete language to talk and think about these things, often through metaphors.
Using metaphors is far more than a poetic device of factual statements. A study conducted at Purchase College found that metaphors can frame people’s perspectives, thus shaping their reasoning and subsequent actions. For example, describing the effort to stop climate change as a “war” rather than a “race” caused people to feel more urgency about reducing emissions.
Another example is the lightbulb metaphor commonly used to describe new ideas, suggesting that new thoughts appear suddenly like a light switch being turned on. However, this metaphor implies that new ideas come effortlessly and are accessible only to a select few geniuses, such as Isaac Newton, who supposedly developed his theory of gravity from a sudden insight about a falling apple. It may lead people to question their capability to generate new ideas, and as a behavioral consequence, people may underestimate the role of hard work and continuous learning in bringing about change.
An alternative way to describe ideas is by comparing new thoughts to seeds that fall on fertile ground and if cared for, will grow and develop over time. Different from the lightbulb metaphor, the seed metaphor implies an understanding that generating new ideas is a laborious process, which requires time and effort. It also suggests that anybody can be the cultivator of ideas as long as they put their mind to it.
The subtle effects of metaphors show how powerful language can be, even though we often don’t realize it. Who’d have thought a simple use of a lightbulb metaphor could profoundly affect how we understand the concept of innovation? Given the nature of our metaphorical minds, it is worth asking: are our metaphors suitable? We owe it to ourselves and others to use metaphors appropriately. These choices, conscious or not, can be constructive or destructive.
28. What does the study find about metaphors?
A. They help clarify abstract concepts. B. They may cause some misunderstanding.
C. They make language more poetic and vivid. D. They can influence people’s minds and behavior.
29. Why is the example of “lightbulb metaphor” quoted in paragraph 3?
A. To raise some doubt about metaphors. B. To highlight improper use of metaphors.
C. To illustrate poetic functions of metaphors. D. To demonstrate the influence of metaphors.
30. How does the “seed metaphor” differ from the “lightbulb metaphor”?
A. It suggests consistent efforts of individuals. B. It attaches great significance to natural talent.
C. It arouses people’s awareness of their creativity. D. It simplifies the process of generating new ideas.
31. What is author’s attitude towards the use of metaphors?
A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Cautious. D. Ambiguous.
【答案】28. D 29. D 30. A 31. C
【解析】
【导语】本文属于说明文。主要通过举例和分析来探讨隐喻在语言和思维中的作用,以及不同隐喻如何影响人们的理解和行为。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的“A study conducted at Purchase College found that metaphors can frame people’s perspectives, thus shaping their reasoning and subsequent actions. (Purchase学院进行的一项研究发现,隐喻可以塑造人们的视角,进而影响他们的推理和后续行为。)”可知,研究发现隐喻能够影响人们的思维和行为。故选D。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段的“Another example is the lightbulb metaphor commonly used to describe new ideas, suggesting that new thoughts appear suddenly like a light switch being turned on. However, this metaphor implies that new ideas come effortlessly and are accessible only to a select few geniuses… It may lead people to question their capability to generate new ideas, and as a behavioral consequence, people may underestimate the role of hard work and continuous learning in bringing about change. (另一个例子是常用于描述新想法的灯泡隐喻,暗示新想法像打开电灯开关一样突然出现。然而,这个隐喻暗示新想法来得不费吹灰之力,只有少数天才才能拥有……这可能会导致人们质疑自己产生新想法的能力,并因此低估努力工作和持续学习在带来变化中的作用。)”可知,引用灯泡隐喻这个例子是为了说明隐喻如何影响人们对新想法产生过程的理解,即证明隐喻的影响力。故选D。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段的“Different from the lightbulb metaphor, the seed metaphor implies an understanding that generating new ideas is a laborious process, which requires time and effort. It also suggests that anybody can be the cultivator of ideas as long as they put their mind to it. (与灯泡隐喻不同,种子隐喻暗示了一种理解,即产生新想法是一个需要时间和努力的艰苦过程。它还表明,只要用心,任何人都可以成为思想的培育者。)”可知,种子隐喻与灯泡隐喻不同之处在于它暗示个人需要持续的努力。故选A。
【31题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段的“The subtle effects of metaphors show how powerful language can be, even though we often don’t realize it. Who’d have thought a simple use of a lightbulb metaphor could profoundly affect how we understand the concept of innovation? Given the nature of our metaphorical minds, it is worth asking: are our metaphors suitable? We owe it to ourselves and others to use metaphors appropriately. These choices, conscious or not, can be constructive or destructive. (隐喻的微妙影响显示了语言的强大力量,尽管我们常常没有意识到这一点。谁会想到一个简单的灯泡隐喻会深刻地影响我们对创新概念的理解?鉴于我们思维的隐喻性,值得一问的是:我们的隐喻是否合适?我们有责任对自己和他人适当地使用隐喻。这些选择,无论是有意识还是无意识的,都可能是建设性的或破坏性的。)”可知,作者对隐喻的使用持谨慎态度,认为应该恰当地使用隐喻,因为无论是有意识还是无意识的,隐喻都可能是建设性的或破坏性的。故选C。
D
Until now it has been impossible to peer into the human mind, but new biometric (生物计量的) and machine learning tools are changing this. Assuming people approve of these technologies monitoring them, researchers can collect real-time facial analysis and eye-movement data using webcams, and therefore recognize subconscious facial-expressions when people are engaged with different urban scenes.
Our research group at Tufts University has conducted a number of facial analysis and eye-tracking studies, using iMotions Online AFFDEX facial coding software to track 51 participants’ real-time visual attention and facial expressions in response to images and videos of Memorial Drive in Cambridge. We captured similar images of the same stretch of road with and without cars and compared our participants’ emotional reactions to both types of images. The system records a person’s eye movements and facial expressions with a camera. Then the software uses an algorithm (算法) to score whether a participant displayed positive, negative or neutral emotions during each millisecond of the study based on subtle movements in their facial muscles.
In its results, although our participants expressed neutral emotions in response to the images 85 percent of the time, participants spent on average 0.4 percent more time expressing positive emotions in response to vehicleless images and videos. While seemingly a small difference, any measurable effect from a still image can signal something worth considering. And after several follow-up researches, we did find that cars absorbed people naturally, whereas people’s emotional responses are more negative while looking at them.
Scientists and urban planners globally are beginning to polish biometric tools to understand these kinds of behavioral responses to urban and architectural elements. Natural elements like trees are less foreign to our brain than car-related infrastructure like traffic lights, and accord better with our in-born preferences. Furthermore, natural design elements make it easier for humans to relax and enjoy their surroundings as they reflect the natural surroundings of our environment. Car-free spaces are important in community building. Some studies have taken these biometric tools out of the lab, but more work is still needed to test these human behavioral responses in real-world conditions.
32. How did the researchers reach the conclusion?
A. By making an assumption. B. By using webcams.
C. By analyzing collected data. D. By using a coding software.
33. According to the research conducted by Tults University, ________.
A. a still image is worth more consideration
B. images without vehicles could thrill participants
C. most participants were neutral about the research
D. images with vehicles might well capture participants
34. What can be inferred from this passage?
A. Biometric tools can improve people’s emotional states.
B. The research findings might help guide urban planning.
C. Happiness and the number of cars are positively related.
D. Human consciousness can be transformed by biometric tools.
35. What is the main idea of this passage?
A. Biometrictools help decode human perception.
B. Biometrics suggests car-free cities in the future.
C. Biometrictools make for a better environment.
D. Biometrics promotes urban planning and building.

根据上文“So what can perfectionists do to change their behavior? Psychologists point out that giving up on perfection does not necessarily mean less success.(那么完美主义者能做些什么来改变他们的行为呢?心理学家指出,放弃追求完美并不意味着更少的成功)”以及后文“A possible alternative to perfectionism is what psychologists call a growth mindset. Unlike those with a fixed mindset, those with a growth mindset believe that they can improve their abilities by learning from their mistakes.(完美主义的另一种可能选择是心理学家所说的成长型心态。与固定心态的人不同,成长心态的人相信他们可以通过从错误中学习来提高自己的能力)”可知,本句承接上文,具体说明应该如何改变完美主义。故C选项“从长远来看,接受不完美实际上是有帮助的”符合语境,故选C。
【40题详解】
根据后文“To understand self-sympathy, think about how you would respond to a close friend if they made a mistake. It is likely that you will respond with kindness and understanding, knowing that your friend is doing it out of good intentions.(为了理解自我同情,想想如果一个亲密的朋友犯了错误,你会如何回应。你很可能会以善意和理解回应,因为你知道你的朋友这样做是出于好意)”可知,后文提到了要自我同情,A选项sympathy for oneself对应后文self-sympathy。故A选项“另一个是培养对自己的同情”符合语境,故选A。

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。
The summer I turned 16, my father gave me his 69 Chevy Malibu convertible (敞篷车). Beautifully repainted cherry red with V-8 engine—it was a gift wasted on me at that age. What did I know about classic cars? The important thing was that Hannah and I could drive around Tucson with the top down.
Hannah was my best friend, a year younger but much taller, almost five foot ten.“Hannah’s a beautiful girl,” my mother always said. And sure enough, that summer she signed with a modeling agency. She was already doing runway work .
A month after my birthday, Hannah and I went to the movies. On the way home, we stopped at the McDonald’s drive-through, putting the fries on the seat between us to share. “Let’s ride around a-while,” I said. It was a clear night, oven-warm, full moon casting low over the desert. Making a turn too fast, I hit a patch of dirt and the back of the car slid to the other side. I then drove through a neighbor’s landscape wall and knocked into a full-grown palm. The front wheels came to rest half way up the tree trunk.
There were French fries on the floor, the dash (仪表盘), and my lap. An impossible amount of blood was on Hannah’s face, flaps of skin hanging into her eyes. They took us in separate ambulances. In the ER, my parents spoke quietly: “Best plastic surgeon in the city…but it is more likely to be the end of her modeling career.…”
We’d been wearing lap belts, but the car didn’t have shoulder bands. I’d broken my cheek bone on the steering wheel; Hannah’s forehead had split wide open on the dash. What would I say to her?
When her mother, Sharon, came into my hospital room, I started to cry, preparing myself for her anger. She sat beside me and took my hand. “I rear-ended (追尾) my best friend when I was your age,” she said. “I destroyed her car and mine.” “I’m so sorry.” I said, knowing Sharon was trying her best to comfort me and helping me out of my terrible sense of guilt and self-blame.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150词左右。
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
“The most important is that you’re both alive. I forgive you and Hannah will too.” She said.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Sharon’s forgiveness allowed Hannah and me to return to our normal life.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】“The most important is that you’re both alive. I forgive you and Hannah will too.” She said. I still couldn’t forgive myself for the harm caused to Hannah, trapped in deep self-accusation and regret. Aware of my desperation, Sharon took me in her arms, patting me on the back. I plucked up enough courage to request her to take me to Hannah’s ward. Seeing me getting close to her bed on the wheelchair pushed by her mother, Hannah asked eagerly, “Are you all right?” Tears of joy and relief poured down our cheeks.
Sharon’s forgiveness allowed Hannah and me to return to our normal life. We got back to be in the car together that summer, to stay friends throughout high school and college, to be in each other’s weddings, and to watch my four teenagers fawn over her three younger children. I think of her gift of forgiveness every time I’m tempted to resent someone for a perceived wrong. The scars are so faded that no one else would notice, but in the sunlight I can still see the faint shimmer just below her hairline—for me, an imprint of grace.
【解析】

The college used to have four departments, english, french, german and russian, but now there is a chinese department as well. And we are going to set up a spanish department soon. At the moment, we are outside the english department. In the english department, there are over two hundred students, thirty students in each class. We have fifty teachers, including twenty professors in this department. The teachers are all from different places, mainly from the U. S. A. And australia, with a few from england and canada. All of your classes will be here in this building. In the french department, there are over one hundred and fifty students and forty teachers, mainly from france and canada. In the russian department, we have more than one hundred and twenty students and twenty eight teachers from russia. Now let's walk over to the main library, which is the largest building in the college. But I must remind you that this tour doesn't include a visit to the reading rooms. There are many students on weekdays. They need quiet. I am afraid we don't do visits on any weekday during working hours. If you do want to see these rooms, the only day there are tours is on sundays, because the library is closed for maintenance on saturday. 第二节到此结束。
