Passage 1
(23-24高二下·江西赣州·阶段练习)Last year, I decided to explore Antarctica alone. To get some experience, I 1 for a two-week training course. I learned all the 2 : how to camp in the snow and what clothing to wear.
In October, I flew to Antarctica from Punta Arenas. I’d planned to finish the adventure within 70 days, which would make it the longest 3 one-way exploration across Antarctica. I just took such basic 4 as food and clothing, and set off alone.
The first few days were 5 . The wind was as fast as about 60 mph, and my sled weighed more than 120 kg. Even if the visibility (能见度) was good, I couldn’t 6 much-it’s white everywhere. I was on the move for 13 to 15 hours a day. Then, the conditions became even worse. During the last 40 hours, the wind blew so hard that I 7 about 14 times every two hours. After I 8 922 miles, I felt too weak and had to ask for a helicopter to pick me up. The 9 I felt when I saw the helicopter in the distance was unbelievable.
Although I fell more than 100 miles short of my 10 , I am proud of what I’ve 11 . After the trip, I have realized that it’s 12 to change our initial goals. I don’t 13 with those who insist on conquering (征服) somewhere. Instead, I think we should treat places with 14 and hope they’ll allow us 15 passage.

Passage 2
(22-23高二下·全国·单元测试)I have been afraid of heights since young. In my middle school there was a training program called “The Leap of Faith”. Students had to climb a ladder to a platform (平台) 11 meters above the ground and then 1 the platform and grab a swing.
I was 2 like a leaf before I took the first step. I climbed up and, when I got to the top, I was so 3 that I felt faint. I literally couldn’t 4 My teacher, who was standing below, suggested that 5 jumping off the platform, I just sit on the edge and then slide down. I sat there for 10 minutes and finally, with the 6 of my classmates, I slid down crying the whole way. I heard two boys 7 me behind my back. I was so hurt.
Over the next two weeks, I jumped off steps and swung on the rope. I wanted so badly to 8 that I could do it, and I wanted to 9 the guys who had laughed at me. Two weeks later in a PE class I 10 jumped off the platform. I have never felt so 11 of myself.
Sometimes situations are 12 , but that doesn’t mean it is impossible to deal with them. People will doubt you, but 13 is the best revenge (报复) for them. When you attain your goals, you’ll feel a great sense of 14 . So, keep dreaming and don’t let your 15 get in the way.

(23-24高二下·山西吕梁·阶段练习)Urquhart finished running 1,402 kilometers over the course of 28 days in Antarctica, setting the record for the longest-ever run in a polar region.
Australian Urquhart is an 1 marathon runner. But running on Antarctica’s Union Glacier 2 Urquhart to a wholly different challenge. “No female had 3 this before,” she says.
Urquhart spent 10 months preparing for the challenge, turning to some 4 training methods. A container company 5 her to put a treadmill (跑步机) in a refrigerated storage unit and run for hours each weekend, while she also 6 with an automotive parts company to train inside an industrial wind tunnel.
The 7 Urquhart faced in Antarctica were numerous. She had to fight through temperatures as low as -20℃ and winds as 8 as 50 miles per hour — moments in which Antarctica lived up to its 9 as the coldest, windiest and driest place on the Earth. Urquhart would 10 stumbled (绊倒) as she struggled to put one foot in front of the other. She would usually wear four layers but had to 11 her body temperature while running. Happily, Urquhart’s body soon 12 to the physical rigors (严酷) of running 30 miles each day.

Passage 4
(23-24高二下·贵州遵义·期末)My earliest memories involve waiting for my Dad to come home. He would hand me a comb (梳子) and ask me to clean it. I would 1 brush it as hard as possible. When I proudly 2 it to Dad, he would smile. At five, this 3 task brought me such joy.
Later, Dad left his job and started a business. That was when our 4 life started getting shaky. Dad’s business wasn’t doing well. So he always come home 5 , and I’d already been asleep. I became mad and 6 waiting for his returning.
Now 28, I’ve got my own job. Dad’s business got 7 . Things are better now. Yet the uncomfortable silence between us 8 .
One day, Dad came home early and said, “Hey, would you like to clean my comb?” I looked at him for a while, and then took it to the 9 . It hit me then: why, as a(n) 10 , cleaning his comb was such a joy. That 11 meant my dad was home to spend the 12 with me.
I passed the clean comb back to Dad. Again, he smiled. But this time, I noticed something 13 . My father had aged. He had 14 next to his eyes, yet his smile was still 15 — the smile of a father just wanting a good life for his family.

Passage 5
(22-23高二下·黑龙江牡丹江·期末)When I was a small child, I believed wholeheartedly in magic. I was 1 to the remarkable Harry Potter books. With 2 , I could dig deeply into the magical world and explore my fantasies.
Sad though it may seem, I wasn’t ashamed of being 3 . I was confident that I would soon receive my envelope 4 me into Hogwarts School of Witchcraft and Wizardry. So I waited 5 , sometimes planning what I would do once I was unmasked to be a wizard (巫师).
As you’re probably predicting, the 6 happened. The year came and went when I was supposed to 7 the invitation. With the 8 of that letter came the loss of all of my hope. And I had to leave behind that dead dream. The world was ordinary and dull. Filled with a bit of 9 , I continued my life. And soon, the dream 10 my mind.
However, as I grew up in a world with no spells (魔咒) or flying broomstick, I realized something. Magic did 11 . Maybe it didn’t appear in the form that I had 12 while reading the Harry Potter series, but it was 13 there.
It surprised me every time I looked outside at the great moon and the stars. It 14 me in the form of loyal friends or caring family. It said hello as I burst into tears feeling extreme kindness or 15 . Magic was joy. Magic was love. Magic was hope.

Passage 7
(22-23高二下·广东韶关·期中)I was frustrated at not being entered into the national IT competition I’d applied for. I sat in the car, lost in despair, chewing my lip and staring outside.
I went upstairs, 1 and desperate. Grandpa’s door was open for me as usual. There, he was waiting for my 2 with great excitement. I stood silently, forcing a 3 to cover my sadness. He seemed to 4 me immediately, giving me a 5 . I was astonished that such a thin body was full of so much energy.
Only then did my emotions start 6 out. I told him that all my 7 were for nothing, and that I was feeling discouraged. Grandpa smiled at me 8 and said, “Don’t worry. You’re far stronger than you think.” Then he 9 “Life can be full of ups and downs so what we need do is to still have our hopes and desires, ignoring the anxiety that makes it easy to give up.”
He patted me on the shoulder, with a determined look, before saying, “Cheer up. I’m firmly 10 that you have the ability to succeed.” Grandpa’s encouragement soon made my sadness 11 .
The next day, I thought about all my problems and 12 a plan. Now, I believe that with a positive attitude towards failure, I’ll 13 reach my goals.

Ayers would be jumping out of a Cessna 172, a small four-seat passenger plane. In 2 , the passenger door and front passenger seat were 3 so that they wouldn’t disturb their skydive. However, the passenger side seat belt was still there. Ayers’ teammates jumped first, leaving him and the pilot as the only two people 4 in the plane. It was Ayers’ 5 . But as he stepped out into the air, his 6 got caught in the passenger side seat belt.
“I was 7 out of the plane on my back, staring up at the belly of the Cessna, with only my boot 8 to the pilot. I tried to pull myself up to reach the buckle (搭扣), but I just couldn’t,” Ayers recalled. Thousands of feet in the air, hanging from the plane, Ayers was 9 .
“And what happened next was 10 ,” Ayers said. “The 23-year-old pilot unbuckled her seat belt, bent down, with both hands off the yoke (操纵杆), and 11 my ankle.” Ayers fell away from the plane, opened his chute (降落伞) and landed safely.

Passage 10
(23-24高二下·湖南·阶段练习)In May 1869, John Wesley Powell, a former Union Army major who had lost most of his right 1 in the Battle of Shiloh, led 10 2 in launching four heavy wooden boats loaded to the gunwales with 10 months of supplies.
Three of the boats were made of oak, more suitable for cruising lakes than busting through rapids (急流). None of the men were 3 boatmen. The one-armed captain of the crew had maps with gaps in them. 4 , it was the grandest expedition (探险) since Lewis and Clark. Over 500 rapids and 1,000 miles of 5 currents awaited them.
Though Powell had boats custom-made for the 6 , they were heavy. He recruited men who knew how to 7 in the wilderness but had never navigated (横越) a river. He packed so much food that it 8 sank the boats from the start.
Much of the journey was spent 9 boats damaged while portaging around rapids and carving new oars out of driftwood. Food was lost or spoiled, game was scarce, and Powell went inland to 10 with the Indians for food. The expedition spent days in 11 water and 115-degree heat. Three men deserted the cause along the way. The crew slept on boulders and 12 wet clothing the next morning. And most of the time, they had no idea what lay ahead. But at the end of the arduous journey, they had successfully 13 the challenges and mapped a wilderness previously labeled as “territory unknown.” As the West expanded, Powell’s maps would be 14 .

Passage 11
(23-24高二下·广东佛山·期末)I started stuttering (结巴) at 10 when my father died. I lost confidence when speaking, especially in unfamiliar situations. Science seemed a(n) 1 for me as I assumed that research is done alone and requires little interaction with others. 2 , I soon learned it’s hardly a job for someone afraid to talk.
Throughout the course of my doctoral studies, I practiced every talk I had to 3 over and over until I was sure I would not have to think about the contents when presenting. During group meetings, where my familiar workmates already knew about my 4 , I learned to speak up. But in a 5 audience, such as a departmental seminar (研讨会), I kept quiet. If I had question during a talk, I would wait to ask the speaker 6 or just keep it to myself.
This all 7 when I moved to a new institution and was asked to start a seminar series. And suddenly I was inviting potential speakers and planning their 8 . I soon realized I could not just sit back and 9 as before, but I was worried that my stutter might trip me up in front of my fellow workers. Anyway, I managed to push that 10 aside and accept the responsibility.
The first few talks were quite 11 . As I got more practice week after week, I discovered the 12 went far beyond being a good host.
I still 13 sometimes, and I carefully choose my words to 14 my stutter. But I know that facing my 15 has helped me become a better researcher.

Passage 12
(23-24高二下·陕西西安·期末)I found a brown bag outside after our move. “Grass Seed,” it said in big letters. My husband and I 1 the seeds all over the dirty yard in front of our new house. “I have no idea if they will 2 ,” I told him, “but it’s worth a shot.” Just like our 3 to move to the rural Arizona.
Near our new house sat a charming cottage, which was 4 to tourists. I got a job offer to 5 the cottage. I’d worked in hotels for years, so when offered the chance, I 6 it. Still, it was a big change. I 7 that it would be a right move.
While we waited for our grass to grow — or not — we 8 settled into our new house through our efforts. We made it a cozy home, despite the 9 in the front yard, which was still bare now. Meanwhile, many of the cottage guests became 10 , and I got to know them well. I felt 11 to make their stays memorable. Perhaps I was better at that than 12 .
But after a monsoon (季风) swept through, I woke up to a beautiful morning and looked out the window. There was no grass growing in the sunlight. 13 , our yard was covered in a rainbow of zinnias (百日菊)! The front yard turned out even better than I could have 14 , just like our new life. And it remains a powerful 15 of the beauty that awaits us in our new chapter.

Only three months after my parents made the 5 to move, I found myself moving boxes into our new house.

He patted me on the shoulder, with a determined look, before saying, “Cheer up. I’m firmly 10 that you have the ability to succeed.” Grandpa’s encouragement soon made my sadness 11 .
The next day, I thought about all my problems and 12 a plan. Now, I believe that with a positive attitude towards failure, I’ll 13 reach my goals.

Passage 11

This all 7 when I moved to a new institution and was asked to start a seminar series. And suddenly I was inviting potential speakers and planning their 8 . I soon realized I could not just sit back and 9 as before, but I was worried that my stutter might trip me up in front of my fellow workers. Anyway, I managed to push that 10 aside and accept the responsibility.
The first few talks were quite 11 . As I got more practice week after week, I discovered the 12 went far beyond being a good host.
I still 13 sometimes, and I carefully choose my words to 14 my stutter. But I know that facing my 15 has helped me become a better researcher.
