By the time she turned 18, Khadijah Williams had attended twelve schools. She had lived in shelters, in parks, and in motels, never in a permanent residence for more than a few months. She had tolerated the blames of students who considered her as “different”.
Homeless since early childhood, Khadijah struggled all her life to hide her circumstances from teachers and fellow students. However, academics proved to be a way for her to find confidence in herself again. For instance, at the age of 9, she placed in the 99th percentile on a state exam, and her teacher told her she was “gifted”. From that moment forward, Khadijah decided to do whatever it took to keep herself in that category. “I was so proud of being smart. I never wanted people to say, ‘You got the easy way out because you’re homeless,’” she said. “I never saw it as an excuse.”
By the second year of high school, she realized that she could not succeed in getting the further education she dreamed of without getting help to go beyond what her current school could offer. She talked to teachers and counselors (辅导员) who helped her apply to summer community college classes, scholarships, and enrichment programs. And in 11th grade, when she enrolled at Jefferson High School, she decided to complete the rest of her school career there—a decision that meant taking a bus each morning at 4 a. m. and not getting home until 11 p. m.
Her perseverance and hard work paid off, however. When she poured the story of her life into her Harvard University college application, she was accepted.
Once Khadijah felt ready to tell her story, it won her notice not only from college admissions boards but also from the news media, including Oprah, who introduced Khadijah on her show. Now as a successful student at Harvard, Khadijah continues to use the lessons of her extraordinary life to help and inspire other students.
4. What was Khadijah’s life like before she turned 18?
A. She was badly treated at home. B. She struggled with academics.
C. She had lived in various places. D. She often misbehaved at school.
5. How did Khadijah find confidence in herself again?
A. By hiding her circumstance from others. B. By working hard for academic success.
C. By being proud of her homeless background. D. By getting help from teachers and counselors.
6. Why did Khadijah apply for summer community college program?
A. To use her experience to inspire others. B. To get financial help from her teachers.
C. To realize her dream to go to university. D. To be admitted to Jefferson High School.
7. What is the text mainly about?
A. Khadijah’s success in her academic pursuits. B. Khadijah’s experience of overcoming adversity.
C. Khadijah’s involvement in community service. D. Khadijah’s achievements at Harvard University.
C
Are you chillaxed enough? Recently, having a sense of ease seems to have become one of the most important qualities that a person should have to be seen as successful and attractive.
The discussion arose from a previous incident. A family’s luggage (行李) was rejected for shipment, but they continued their journey like nothing bad had happened. A girl witnessed their calm attitude in difficult circumstances and shared the story online. She described their attitude as being “chillaxed”, meaning staying calm in the face of barriers. With the word gaining more attention, an increasing number of people have shared their chillaxed lives online.
In psychology, maintaining a sense of ease is similar to “psychological resilience”, which refers to the ability to effectively adjust and adapt to tough situations. particularly by being mentally, emotionally and behaviorally flexible to pressure. It stresses a drive for success, steadily advancing toward a goal, and being prepared to accept any outcome without complaining.
In both work and study, many people get anxious or even collapse when faced with short-term bottlenecks. Therefore, they hurriedly seek immediate changes, which in most cases prevents them from achieving the desired result. Rather than going after immediate outcomes, it’s more significant to maintain steady, gradual progress and adopt a long-term mindset.
Interestingly, as the Internet becomes filled with hashtags (标签) like “only those who are chillaxed are attractive”, many people are beginning to feel anxious because they don’t fit that description. Still, it’s important to note that while a state of ease may be favorable, there’s nothing wrong with not being chillaxed. Indeed, many people achieve their goals by pushing themselves to their limits, though feeling frustrated at pressure from time to time. But as long as you are fighting for your ideal life, you’re definitely someone who’s appealing and respectable no matter whether you’re chillaxed or not.
8. Why is the family’s experience mentioned in the passage?
A. To introduce the origin of the word “chillaxed”.
B. To show the family’s ability to stay chillaxed.
C. To highlight the importance of being chillaxed.
D. To argue against the rejection of luggage shipment.
9. What’s highlighted in psychological resilience?
A. Quick forgetting of challenges.
B. Dependence on external factors.
C. Flexibility and steady progress.
D. Seeking quick fixes to problems.
10. What’s the author’s attitude towards being chillaxed?
A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Dismissive. D. Unclear.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. A Chillaxed Attitude: Shortcut Towards Success.
B. Remaining Chillaxed Helps to Settle Conflicts.
C. Why Being Chillaxed Does Not Guarantee Happiness.
D. Being Chillaxed: The Art of Psychological Strength.
D
When you picture a farm, do you think of green fields and a big red barn? The farms of the future may look very different from that. That’s because farms do not have to be outside anymore. They also won’t have to be above ground. In London, 100 feet below the streets there was a huge empty abandoned space. It was unused for almost 70 years before it was turned into the world’s first underground farm.
Richard Ballard and Steven Dring, founders of the company Growing Underground, thought it would be an ideal spot to build a hydroponic (水栽的) farm. After all, these types of farms are doing well in other indoor spaces.
Founded in 2015, Growing Underground’s farm grows microgreens and salad leaves using hydroponic technology that grows plants in water but not soil. In fact, the company said that its hydroponic technology allows for the perfect pest-free (无害虫的) growing environment.
These methods save 70 percent less water than traditional field agriculture and all the nutrients are kept within a closed circle system. They can grow the greens all year round because they are not affected by weather or growing seasons.
But it is the LED lighting system that is the key to growing food underground. Ballard said, “Already, LEDs allow the growers to change the flavor of the greens, as their sugars and starches develop differently under different light spectrums (光谱).”
Right now, the company only sells greens with a lot of leaves because they are the only crops that grow fast enough to be economically (经济地) feasible but Ballard believes that will change. “As technologies improve, you’ll see soft fruits, cucumbers, peppers,” he said.
The company’s goal is to keep food local. They say that all of the greens can be in your kitchen within four hours of being picked. They currently sell to local restaurants and people who live in London, but they hope to be entering the local retail markets soon.
12. What makes the underground farm possible?
A. The perfect environment. B. The great demand for fruits.
C. The hydroponic technology. D. The good weather condition.
13. What is the function of the LED lighting system?
A. To get rid of pests. B. To make use of solar energy.
C. To allow greens to grow rapidly. D. To provide various light spectrums.
14. What does the underlined word “feasible” in Paragraph 6 probably mean?
A. Difficult. B. Common. C. Impossible. D. Achievable.
15. What does the company expect of the underground farm?
A. It’ll benefit more customers. B. It’ll be environment-friendly.
C. It’ll keep food fresher for longer. D. It’ll introduce more advanced technologies.

47. 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。
It had been a challenging but rewarding term, filled with hard work and a thirst for knowledge. As I handed in my final assignment and saw it was graded A, a sense of pride and satisfaction washed over me. Little did I know that my accomplishments had not gone unnoticed by my families, who had been closely observing my progress.
On the first day of summer vacation, my mother told me excitedly that we would pay a visit to Marco the next day to cheer for my academic progress. When I got the good news, I felt on top of the world and my spirits soared. As I lay in bed that night, a mix of anticipation and delight welled up in my heart, and I slid into a dream-filled sleep, eagerly awaiting the arrival of the coming adventure.
After we arrived in Marco, my parents said that we would first visit the Marco Tower. Marco Tower, built in the late 19th century, is a historic landmark that showcases the rich architectural heritage of the city. It is also considered one of the top tourist attractions in the region. Upon hearing the inspiring news, I bounced up and down with joy. But then I felt a bit uneasy because of my fear of heights.
Inside the lift, my palms grew sweaty as anxiety consumed me. I paced back and forth in the tower lift, unsure of whether I would have the courage. After the lift reached the specific floor, I gasped in horror. The floor here was made of glass, so one could appreciate the height of the tower and take a real adventure. Seeing my family both take out their phones to shoot the grand views, I felt under pressure. Then my mother smiled at me and said delightedly, “Just take it easy and you can do it.”

By the time she turned 18, Khadijah Williams had attended twelve schools. She had lived in shelters, in parks, and in motels, never in a permanent residence for more than a few months. She had tolerated the blames of students who considered her as “different”.
Homeless since early childhood, Khadijah struggled all her life to hide her circumstances from teachers and fellow students. However, academics proved to be a way for her to find confidence in herself again. For instance, at the age of 9, she placed in the 99th percentile on a state exam, and her teacher told her she was “gifted”. From that moment forward, Khadijah decided to do whatever it took to keep herself in that category. “I was so proud of being smart. I never wanted people to say, ‘You got the easy way out because you’re homeless,’” she said. “I never saw it as an excuse.”
By the second year of high school, she realized that she could not succeed in getting the further education she dreamed of without getting help to go beyond what her current school could offer. She talked to teachers and counselors (辅导员) who helped her apply to summer community college classes, scholarships, and enrichment programs. And in 11th grade, when she enrolled at Jefferson High School, she decided to complete the rest of her school career there—a decision that meant taking a bus each morning at 4 a. m. and not getting home until 11 p. m.
Her perseverance and hard work paid off, however. When she poured the story of her life into her Harvard University college application, she was accepted.
Once Khadijah felt ready to tell her story, it won her notice not only from college admissions boards but also from the news media, including Oprah, who introduced Khadijah on her show. Now as a successful student at Harvard, Khadijah continues to use the lessons of her extraordinary life to help and inspire other students.
4. What was Khadijah’s life like before she turned 18?
A. She was badly treated at home. B. She struggled with academics.
C. She had lived in various places. D. She often misbehaved at school.
5. How did Khadijah find confidence in herself again?
A. By hiding her circumstance from others. B. By working hard for academic success.
C. By being proud of her homeless background. D. By getting help from teachers and counselors.
6. Why did Khadijah apply for summer community college program?
A. To use her experience to inspire others. B. To get financial help from her teachers.
C. To realize her dream to go to university. D. To be admitted to Jefferson High School.
7. What is the text mainly about?
A. Khadijah’s success in her academic pursuits. B. Khadijah’s experience of overcoming adversity.
C. Khadijah’s involvement in community service. D. Khadijah’s achievements at Harvard University.
【答案】4. C 5. B 6. C 7. B

(在高二的时候,她意识到,如果没有得到学校提供的帮助,她就无法成功地接受她梦寐以求的进一步教育。她与帮助她申请暑期社区大学课程、奖学金和充实项目的老师和辅导员进行了交谈。)”可知,为了实现她上大学的梦想,她申请暑期社区大学项目。故选C。

Are you chillaxed enough? Recently, having a sense of ease seems to have become one of the most important qualities that a person should have to be seen as successful and attractive.
The discussion arose from a previous incident. A family’s luggage (行李) was rejected for shipment, but they continued their journey like nothing bad had happened. A girl witnessed their calm attitude in difficult circumstances and shared the story online. She described their attitude as being “chillaxed”, meaning staying calm in the face of barriers. With the word gaining more attention, an increasing number of people have shared their chillaxed lives online.
In psychology, maintaining a sense of ease is similar to “psychological resilience”, which refers to the ability to effectively adjust and adapt to tough situations. particularly by being mentally, emotionally and behaviorally flexible to pressure. It stresses a drive for success, steadily advancing toward a goal, and being prepared to accept any outcome without complaining.
In both work and study, many people get anxious or even collapse when faced with short-term bottlenecks. Therefore, they hurriedly seek immediate changes, which in most cases prevents them from achieving the desired result. Rather than going after immediate outcomes, it’s more significant to maintain steady, gradual progress and adopt a long-term mindset.
Interestingly, as the Internet becomes filled with hashtags (标签) like “only those who are chillaxed are attractive”, many people are beginning to feel anxious because they don’t fit that description. Still, it’s important to note that while a state of ease may be favorable, there’s nothing wrong with not being chillaxed. Indeed, many people achieve their goals by pushing themselves to their limits, though feeling frustrated at pressure from time to time. But as long as you are fighting for your ideal life, you’re definitely someone who’s appealing and respectable no matter whether you’re chillaxed or not.
8. Why is the family’s experience mentioned in the passage?
A. To introduce the origin of the word “chillaxed”.
B. To show the family’s ability to stay chillaxed.
C. To highlight the importance of being chillaxed.
D. To argue against the rejection of luggage shipment.
9. What’s highlighted in psychological resilience?
A. Quick forgetting of challenges.
B. Dependence on external factors.
C. Flexibility and steady progress.
D. Seeking quick fixes to problems.
10. What’s the author’s attitude towards being chillaxed?
A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Dismissive. D. Unclear.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. A Chillaxed Attitude: Shortcut Towards Success.
B. Remaining Chillaxed Helps to Settle Conflicts.
C. Why Being Chillaxed Does Not Guarantee Happiness.
D. Being Chillaxed: The Art of Psychological Strength.
【答案】8. A 9. C 10. B 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了chillaxed(放松的)态度的重要性及其意义,同时指出保持这种态度虽有益但并非成功唯一途径。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“The discussion arose from a previous incident. A family’s luggage was rejected for shipment, but they continued their journey like nothing bad had happened. A girl witnessed their calm attitude in difficult circumstances and shared the story online. She described their attitude as being “chillaxed”, meaning staying calm in the face of barriers. (这次讨论是由先前的一件事引起的。一个家庭的行李被拒绝装运,但他们继续旅行,就像什么也没发生过一样。一个女孩目睹了他们在困境中的冷静态度,并在网上分享了这个故事。她形容他们的态度是“放松的”,意思是在面对障碍时保持冷静)”可知,先提到一个家庭行李被拒运但仍若无其事继续旅行这一事件,然后一个女孩见证了他们的态度并在网上分享故事,用“chillaxed”来描述他们,从而引出了“chillaxed”这个词的来源。所以提到这个家庭的经历是为了介绍“chillaxed”这个词的起源。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“In psychology, maintaining a sense of ease is similar to “psychological resilience”, which refers to the ability to effectively adjust and adapt to tough situations. particularly by being mentally, emotionally and behaviorally flexible to pressure. It stresses a drive for success, steadily advancing toward a goal, and being prepared to accept any outcome without complaining. (在心理学中,保持轻松感类似于“心理弹性”,指的是有效调整和适应艰难情况的能力。尤其是在精神上、情感上和行为上对压力都很灵活。它强调的是成功的动力,朝着目标稳步前进,并准备好接受任何结果而不抱怨)”可知,psychological resilience是在心理、情感和行为上对压力具有灵活性,并且强调对成功的追求,稳步朝着目标前进。故选C。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Still, it’s important to note that while a state of ease may be favorable, there’s nothing wrong with not being chillaxed. Indeed, many people achieve their goals by pushing themselves to their limits, though feeling frustrated at pressure from time to time. But as long as you are fighting for your ideal life, you’re definitely someone who’s appealing and respectable no matter whether you’re chillaxed or not. (不过,需要注意的是,虽然放松状态可能是有利的,但不放松也没有错。的确,许多人通过挑战自己的极限来实现他们的目标,尽管有时会因为压力而感到沮丧。但只要你在为你的理想生活而奋斗,无论你是否放松,你都绝对是一个有吸引力和受人尊敬的人)”可知,作者认为只要为理想生活奋斗,无论是否“chillaxed”都值得尊敬。作者的态度是客观的。故选B。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其根据最后一段中“Still, it’s important to note that while a state of ease may be favorable, there’s nothing wrong with not being chillaxed. (不过,需要注意的是,虽然放松状态可能是有利的,但不放松也没有错)”可知,文章先由一个事件引出“chillaxed”这个词,接着解释其在心理学上类似于“psychological resilience”,并阐述了“psychological resilience”的内涵,强调了在面对困难时保持冷静、灵活和稳步前进的重要性,最后表明作者对“chillaxed”的客观态度。所以选项D“保持冷静:心理力量的艺术”能很好地概括文章内容,既提到了“chillaxed”,又体现了其与心理力量的关系。故选D。
D
When you picture a farm, do you think of green fields and a big red barn? The farms of the future may look very different from that. That’s because farms do not have to be outside anymore. They also won’t have to be above ground. In London, 100 feet below the streets there was a huge empty abandoned space. It was unused for almost 70 years before it was turned into the world’s first underground farm.
Richard Ballard and Steven Dring, founders of the company Growing Underground, thought it would be an ideal spot to build a hydroponic (水栽的) farm. After all, these types of farms are doing well in other indoor spaces.
Founded in 2015, Growing Underground’s farm grows microgreens and salad leaves using hydroponic technology that grows plants in water but not soil. In fact, the company said that its hydroponic technology allows for the perfect pest-free (无害虫的) growing environment.
These methods save 70 percent less water than traditional field agriculture and all the nutrients are kept within a closed circle system. They can grow the greens all year round because they are not affected by weather or growing seasons.
But it is the LED lighting system that is the key to growing food underground. Ballard said, “Already, LEDs allow the growers to change the flavor of the greens, as their sugars and starches develop differently under different light spectrums (光谱).”
Right now, the company only sells greens with a lot of leaves because they are the only crops that grow fast enough to be economically (经济地) feasible but Ballard believes that will change. “As technologies improve, you’ll see soft fruits, cucumbers, peppers,” he said.
The company’s goal is to keep food local. They say that all of the greens can be in your kitchen within four hours of being picked. They currently sell to local restaurants and people who live in London, but they hope to be entering the local retail markets soon.
12. What makes the underground farm possible?
A. The perfect environment. B. The great demand for fruits.
C. The hydroponic technology. D. The good weather condition.
13. What is the function of the LED lighting system?
A To get rid of pests. B. To make use of solar energy.
C. To allow greens to grow rapidly. D. To provide various light spectrums.
14. What does the underlined word “feasible” in Paragraph 6 probably mean?
A. Difficult. B. Common. C. Impossible. D. Achievable.
15. What does the company expect of the underground farm?
A. It’ll benefit more customers. B. It’ll be environment-friendly.
C. It’ll keep food fresher for longer. D. It’ll introduce more advanced technologies.
【答案】12. C 13. D 14. D 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了水培技术使得种植果蔬可以不用土壤,未来的农场可以建在地下,以满足地方市场对果蔬的需求。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“In London, 100 feet below the streets there was a huge empty abandoned space. It was unused for almost 70 years before it was turned into the world’s first underground farm.(在伦敦,在街道下方100英尺处,有一块巨大的废弃空地。在被闲置了近70年后,它变成世界上第一个地下农场)”和第二段中“Richard Ballard and Steven Dring, founders of the company Growing Underground, thought it would be an ideal spot to build a hydroponic (水栽的) farm. (Richard Ballard和Steven Dring是Growing Underground公司的创始人,他们认为这里是建造水培农场的理想地点)”可知,Growing Underground公司将一块废弃地下空地改建成了地下农场,结合第三段中的“Founded in 2015, Growing Underground’s farm grows microgreens and salad leaves using hydroponic technology that grows plants in water but not soil.(Growing Underground的农场成立于2015年,使用水培技术种植微型蔬菜和沙拉叶,这种技术在水中而不是土壤中种植植物)”可知,Growing Underground公司使用的是水培技术,由此推知,正是水培技术使得地下农场成为可能。故选C项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段中的“Already, LEDs allow the growers to change the flavor of the greens,as their sugars and starches develop differently under different light spectrums.(LED已经允许种植者改变绿色蔬菜的味道,因为它们的糖和淀粉在不同的光谱下会产生不同的变化)”可推知,LED照明系统为地下农场提供了多样化的光谱,让糖分和淀粉在不同的光谱下发生不同的变化,从而改变绿色蔬菜的味道。故选D项。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词前的“the company only sells greens with a lot of leaves because they are the only crops that grow fast enough... (该公司只出售绿叶蔬菜,因为它们是唯一生长速度足够快的作物)”可知,该公司目前仅销售带叶的绿色蔬菜,这是因为它们长得足够快,再结合常识和副词“economically”可推知,销售长得快的蔬菜是为了实现经济上的可行性。划线词feasible与achievable意思相近,指“可实现的,可行性”。故选D项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“They currently sell to local restaurants and people who live in London, but they hope to be entering the local retail markets soon.(他们目前的客户是当地的餐馆和住在伦敦的人,但他们希望很快能进入当地的零售市场)”可推知,公司希望他们的地下农场能够惠及更多客户。故选A项。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了草布的制作原料和工艺等内容。
【36题详解】
考查代词。句意:中国苎麻产量占世界总产量的90%以上。空格处指代“全世界苎麻的产量”,结合上文“The ramie output in China”可知,空格处为同类异物特指,且output不可数,应用that,相当于the output (of the world)。故填that。
【37题详解】
考查副词。句意:由于苎麻原料胶厚,质地不规则,所以每一步都是纯手工制作的。空格处修饰下文的形容词manual,应该用副词purely作状语。故填purely。
【38题详解】
考查时态和语态。句意:现在,古老的纯木制织机和许多草布产品被放置在宽敞的展厅里,看起来非常迷人。空格处是谓语动词,根据时间状语right now可知,用一般现在时;主语ancient pure wooden looms与谓语动词place之间是被动关系,所以用被动语态;主语是复数形式,be动词用are。故填are place。
【39题详解】
考查形容词。句意:现在,古老的纯木制织机和许多草布产品被放置在宽敞的展厅里,看起来非常迷人。根据空格前的系动词looking可知,空格处应该用形容词作表语,逻辑主语all指的是上文提到的展厅里的东西,所以应该用形容词fascinating。故填fascinating。
【40题详解】
考查介词。句意:古时候,在从事草布生产的农家,总能看到一个忙碌的景象,工人们把麻皮和稻草之间的细纤维洗净,得到作为草布原料的麻丝。engaged in“从事于……”是固定搭配。故填in。
【41题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:古时候,在从事草布生产的农家,总能看到一个忙碌的景象,工人们把麻皮和稻草之间的细纤维洗净,得到作为草布原料的麻丝。空格处引导定语从句,对先行词scene进行限定说明,先行词在从句中作地点状语,所以用关系副词where引导从句。故填where。
【42题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:如今仅有少数农户仍在制作夏布,其中大多数人仍在家庭作坊中劳作。空格处应该用非谓语动词与空格前的most of them构成独立主格,动词work与逻辑主语most of them之间是主动关系,所以用现在分词working。故填working。
【43题详解】
考查冠词。句意:黄秀英,作为该家族企业唯一的第七代传承人,已推行多项大胆创新,通过融合时代美学,并运用流行艺术设计与文化包装,赋予夏布更强的时代感。根据空格前的Huang Xiuying和空格后的only可知,此处是特指该家族企业唯一的第七代传承人,应该用定冠词。故填the。
【44题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:黄秀英,作为该家族企业唯一的第七代传承人,已推行多项大胆创新,通过融合时代美学,并运用流行艺术设计与文化包装,赋予夏布更强的时代感。根据空格前的has carried out many可知,空格处应该用复数名词innovations作宾语。故填innovations。
【45题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:黄秀英,作为该家族企业唯一的第七代传承人,已推行多项大胆创新,通过融合时代美学,并运用流行艺术设计与文化包装,赋予夏布更强的时代感。根据上文的using可知,此处考查固定搭配use something to do,所以,空格处用不定式作目的状语。故填to give。

47. 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。
It had been a challenging but rewarding term, filled with hard work and a thirst for knowledge. As I handed in my final assignment and saw it was graded A, a sense of pride and satisfaction washed over me. Little did I know that my accomplishments had not gone unnoticed by my families, who had been closely observing my progress.
On the first day of summer vacation, my mother told me excitedly that we would pay a visit to Marco the next day to cheer for my academic progress. When I got the good news, I felt on top of the world and my spirits soared. As I lay in bed that night, a mix of anticipation and delight welled up in my heart, and I slid into a dream-filled sleep, eagerly awaiting the arrival of the coming adventure.
After we arrived in Marco, my parents said that we would first visit the Marco Tower. Marco Tower, built in the late 19th century, is a historic landmark that showcases the rich architectural heritage of the city. It is also considered one of the top tourist attractions in the region. Upon hearing the inspiring news, I bounced up and down with joy. But then I felt a bit uneasy because of my fear of heights.
Inside the lift, my palms grew sweaty as anxiety consumed me. I paced back and forth in the tower lift, unsure of whether I would have the courage. After the lift reached the specific floor, I gasped in horror. The floor here was made of glass, so one could appreciate the height of the tower and take a real adventure. Seeing my family both take out their phones to shoot the grand views, I felt under pressure. Then my mother smiled at me and said delightedly, “Just take it easy and you can do it.”

I was totally struck by the view unfolding before my eyes.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】I didn’t know whether to stay or not. The thought of exploring new places, and creating lasting memories with my family was undeniably inviting. However, it was obviously too challenging for me to step on to that glass. As I weighed the options in my mind, my mother’s words echoed in my ears, reminding me of the courage and confidence I used to have. With a deep breath, I made up my mind that I would seize this opportunity and embrace the adventure that awaited me in Marco.
I was totally struck by the view unfolding before my eyes. My eyes were immediately drawn to the magnificent structure that stood tall in the city center-Marco Tower. Its charm was without equal, its soaring height dominating the skyline. I couldn’t help feeling a mixture of awe and admiration. I reminded myself of the encouragement from my loved ones. As we left the tower, I expressed my gratitude to my mother for her consistent support. She taught me an important lesson that day — with a little encouragement, we can achieve extraordinary things.
