One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. It is absolutely the case in Turkey where garbage collectors started collecting books that have been thrown away and ended up opening a library.
It started when garbage man Durson Ipek found a bag of abandoned books when he was working and then it snowballed from there. Ipek and other garbage men started gathering the books they found on the streets that were ready for landfills (垃圾填埋地) and as their collection started to grow, so did word of mouth. Soon, local residents started donating books directly. The library was initially available only to the garbage employees and their families to use but as the collection grew, so did public interest and the library was opened to the public in 2017.
“On the one hand there were those who were leaving these books on the streets. On the other hand, others were looking for these books,” Ankaya mayor Alper Tasdelen told CNN. “We started to discuss the idea of creating a library from these books. When everyone supported it, this project happened.”
All the books that are found are sorted and checked for condition. If they pass, they go on the shelves. Today, the library has over 6,000 books that range from fiction to nonfiction and there’s a very popular children’s section that even has a collection of comic books. An entire section is devoted to scientific research and there are also books available in English and French. The collection has grown so large that the library loans books to schools and educational programs.
“Village school teachers from all over Turkey are requesting books,” Tasdelen told CNN. The government has to hire a full-time employee to administrate the library.
This library is incredibly popular. It is frequently filled with the children of the city’s workers and students from nearby schools. There is a waiting room set up for readers and chess boards for the people who visit the library. You can even enjoy a cup of tea in the waiting room.
4. What can we infer from paragraph 2?
A. Every citizen was accessible to the library at the beginning.
B. The collection of abandoned books drew few people’s attention.
C. The abandoned books would have gone to waste without the garbage men.
D. Local residents made little contribution to the collection of abandoned books.
5. What do we know about the library of abandoned books?
A. It features books of scientific research.
B. It has an entire section of books in English and French.
C. Schools and educational programs have access to the books.
D. Books need to be sorted and checked for condition before being donated.
6. Why does the government have to hire a full-time employee?
A. To make sure that the books in the library won’t be stolen.
B. To advertise the library to more Turkish villages.
C. To meet the demands from educational programs.
D. To help arrange donated books in the correct order.
7. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. Popularity of the library of abandoned books in Turkey.
B. Reasons why the library of abandoned books was founded.
C. Benefits of the library of abandoned books to Turkish citizens.
D. People’s high demand for books on the library of abandoned books.
C
There’s an inner desire amongst most people to explore our planet. There’s this sense in modern society that somehow we will find a better existence or we’ll find happiness by going on holiday. I think we’ve almost been conditioned to become tourists, to the extent that a lot of people engage in tourism without actually considering why they’re doing so.
There are plenty of people who will go to the same place every year, because they’re comfortable and familiar with it. People are experiencing less and less the places they are at. They might be there in body, but not necessarily in mind, because a lot of people are constantly thinking: “How am I going to present myself to my social media group back home through my posts on Facebook or Instagram?”
But this is just one side of the problem. On the other side, our travel has taken a toll on the environment. It is reported that the carbon emissions from air travel accounted for 2.5% of global emissions in 2019, and this figure may be three times by 2050.
I admit that there has been a considerable increase in people’s awareness about the environment. And some people say that this can eventually lead to a shift in our behavior as tourists. However, I can’t share their optimism. A lot of research has been done into the extent to which tourists are willing to adapt their behavior. And even those people who regularly consume or behave in an environmentally friendly fashion actually temporarily forget their environmental commitments, and behave like normal tourists. They do suffer some kind of eco-guilt, but nevertheless they continue to travel, and they continue to fly.
I’m old enough to remember when tourism was just the summer holiday, and you would look forward to those two weeks a year when you would go on holiday. It was special and meaningful, but nowadays it is so easy to travel. Travel is now seen as a right, not as a privilege. However, to some extent, I hope there will be a significant rise in the cost of travel, or at least in air travel. In my opinion, only in this way can people realize the value of travel experience and really enjoy it. Also, only in this way can many problems arising with the development of tourism be properly solved.
8. What is the problem with most tourists according to the author?
A. They don’t care about our planet at all.
B. They post too many photos on social media.
C. They can hardly find the right place to explore.
D. They fail to have a meaningful traveling experience.
9. What does the underlined part “taken a toll on” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Improved. B. Damaged. C. Saved. D. Shaped.
10. What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
A. Tourists can hardly be affected by environmental awareness.
B. Tourists are unaware of the effect of their behavior.
C. Tourists’ environmental awareness has been increased.
D. Tourists find it hard to travel without harming the environment.
11. Why does the author hope airline tickets will be more expensive?
A. To limit the development of tourism. B. To create a sense of equality in society.
C. To help people value their traveling experience. D. To make people less excited about travelling.
D
When I began to learn Chinese, I pursued what many around me saw as an unconventional strategy. Instead of painstakingly writing out characters and practising sentence order, I set out to make as much of a fool of myself as possible. I spoke my mistake-ridden Chinese with friends, annoyed teachers with bad jokes and punished my ears with native music and podcasts. It wasn’t perfect, but it was enough to interview people and read short news articles in just a year.
Organizational psychologist Adam Grant neatly sums up this method alongside other systems and qualities in his new book. “Being a creature of discomfort,” Grant writes, “can unlock hidden potential in many different types of learning.” This is just one character skill the Wharton professor believes can unlock an individual’s potential to do greater things than their background or experience might suggest. This is essential for more than learning a skill or a language; this is what he says takes individuals to the pinnacle of their industry.
Grant writes that universities and companies should take more steps to recognize potential, and where an individual has overcome difficulties like growing up in poverty. This quantifying the unquantifiable could be done, he suggests, by looking at the rate of change of a student’s grades as well as the final score.
The example of Mexican-American José Hernández comes to mind. The astronaut attained his dream of joining NASA after being rejected countless times by a system that did not take into account his different experiences working as a farm labourer when he was young and overcoming struggles.
Systems, therefore, need to change to find the best people. This is also a key message in the book: Improve the pipelines so that better people come up in the future.
12. What did the author do to learn Chinese initially?
A. He read the latest news stories.
B. He wrote out characters carefully.
C. He did sentence order exercises regularly.
D. He spoke the language regardless of errors.
13. What might lead one to remarkable success according to Grant?
A. Keeping comfortable relationships.
B. Obtaining relevant work experience.
C. Having a strong educational background.
D. Putting oneself in uncomfortable situations.
14. What does Grant expect schools to do?
A. Prioritize students’ social skills.
B. Focus on students’ final assessment results.
C. Track the progress of students’ performance.
D. Ask students to learn from great individuals.
15. What might be the title for Grant’s new book?
A. Breaking Through Rejections: You Are Your Own Boss
B. Hidden Potential: The Science of Achieving Greater Things
C. Path to Success: Breaking Restrictions for Personal Growth
D. From Poverty to Pinnacle: Redefining Success Through Strategies

47. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
It all started when my dad brought home a very big surprise — which was actually a very little surprise. “Ta-da!” he announced pulling a sheet off a cage, magician-style. “Meet Mr. Nibbles!”
“A hamster(仓鼠)!” I cheered.
“He’s so cute,” said Tex. “Hello, Mr. Nibbles, I already love you so much.” Tex whispered.
Seeing how we reacted, dad smiled, “Well, congratulations, Mr. Nibbles. You have found yourself a new home!”
It took a few weeks for our fuzzy (毛茸茸的) friend to get comfortable. At first he poked (探出) his head out of his cage only to take a sip of water and fill his cheeks with food. But once he got settled in, he was happy and playful. He sometimes slid away from the cage, and even begged for food, making a hissing (嘶嘶声的) sound as if saying thanks. Having Mr. Nibble 's around made our summer much more fun.
Before we knew it, it was time to go back to school. I was excited to see friends I hadn’t seen in a really long time, but, to be honest, I was also nervous about all the new stuff. That’s why I made sure I was extra prepared. My plan was to wake up early, put on my carefully laid-out clothes, eat my carefully chosen breakfast, and place my thought-out lunch in my carefully arranged backpack. Then I’d ride my carefully cleaned bike to school and enter my brand-new classroom. Hopefully, preparing ahead of time could make me feel calmer going into the back-to-school day!
Everything went according to plan — until, well, it didn't My new teacher, Mr. Jax, who seemed very serious, started out by going over the class rules. Then he asked each of us to say a quick something about our summer vacation. Most kids seemed pretty shy after being apart for a while and said only a few words. Soon it would be my turn.
Paragraph 1:
Suddenly I heard a familiar hissing sound coming from my backpack.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Now everybody was looking at me!

One man’s trash is another man’s treasure. It is absolutely the case in Turkey where garbage collectors started collecting books that have been thrown away and ended up opening a library.
It started when garbage man Durson Ipek found a bag of abandoned books when he was working and then it snowballed from there. Ipek and other garbage men started gathering the books they found on the streets that were ready for landfills (垃圾填埋地) and as their collection started to grow, so did word of mouth. Soon, local residents started donating books directly. The library was initially available only to the garbage employees and their families to use but as the collection grew, so did public interest and the library was opened to the public in 2017.
“On the one hand, there were those who were leaving these books on the streets. On the other hand, others were looking for these books,” Ankaya mayor Alper Tasdelen told CNN. “We started to discuss the idea of creating a library from these books. When everyone supported it, this project happened.”
All the books that are found are sorted and checked for condition. If they pass, they go on the shelves. Today, the library has over 6,000 books that range from fiction to nonfiction and there’s a very popular children’s section that even has a collection of comic books. An entire section is devoted to scientific research and there are also books available in English and French. The collection has grown so large that the library loans books to schools and educational programs.
“Village school teachers from all over Turkey are requesting books,” Tasdelen told CNN. The government has to hire a full-time employee to administrate the library.
This library is incredibly popular. It is frequently filled with the children of the city’s workers and students from nearby schools. There is a waiting room set up for readers and chess boards for the people who visit the library. You can even enjoy a cup of tea in the waiting room.
4. What can we infer from paragraph 2?
A. Every citizen was accessible to the library at the beginning.
B. The collection of abandoned books drew few people’s attention.
C. The abandoned books would have gone to waste without the garbage men.
D. Local residents made little contribution to the collection of abandoned books.
5. What do we know about the library of abandoned books?
A. It features books of scientific research.
B. It has an entire section of books in English and French.
C. Schools and educational programs have access to the books.
D. Books need to be sorted and checked for condition before being donated.
6. Why does the government have to hire a full-time employee?
A. To make sure that the books in the library won’t be stolen.
B. To advertise the library to more Turkish villages.
C. To meet the demands from educational programs.
D. To help arrange donated books in the correct order.
7. What does the passage mainly talk about?
A. Popularity of the library of abandoned books in Turkey.

There’s an inner desire amongst most people to explore our planet. There’s this sense in modern society that somehow we will find a better existence or we’ll find happiness by going on holiday. I think we’ve almost been conditioned to become tourists, to the extent that a lot of people engage in tourism without actually considering why they’re doing so.
There are plenty of people who will go to the same place every year, because they’re comfortable and familiar with it. People are experiencing less and less the places they are at. They might be there in body, but not necessarily in mind, because a lot of people are constantly thinking: “How am I going to present myself to my social media group back home through my posts on Facebook or Instagram?”
But this is just one side of the problem. On the other side, our travel has taken a toll on the environment. It is reported that the carbon emissions from air travel accounted for 2.5% of global emissions in 2019, and this figure may be three times by 2050.
I admit that there has been a considerable increase in people’s awareness about the environment. And some people say that this can eventually lead to a shift in our behavior as tourists. However, I can’t share their optimism. A lot of research has been done into the extent to which tourists are willing to adapt their behavior. And even those people who regularly consume or behave in an environmentally friendly fashion actually temporarily forget their environmental commitments, and behave like normal tourists. They do suffer some kind of eco-guilt, but nevertheless they continue to travel, and they continue to fly.
I’m old enough to remember when tourism was just the summer holiday, and you would look forward to those two weeks a year when you would go on holiday. It was special and meaningful, but nowadays it is so easy to travel. Travel is now seen as a right, not as a privilege. However, to some extent, I hope there will be a significant rise in the cost of travel, or at least in air travel. In my opinion, only in this way can people realize the value of travel experience and really enjoy it. Also, only in this way can many problems arising with the development of tourism be properly solved.
8. What is the problem with most tourists according to the author?
A. They don’t care about our planet at all.
B. They post too many photos on social media.
C. They can hardly find the right place to explore.
D. They fail to have a meaningful traveling experience.
9. What does the underlined part “taken a toll on” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A. Improved. B. Damaged. C. Saved. D. Shaped.
10. What can we infer from Paragraph 4?
A. Tourists can hardly be affected by environmental awareness.
B. Tourists are unaware of the effect of their behavior.
C. Tourists’ environmental awareness has been increased.
D. Tourists find it hard to travel without harming the environment.
11. Why does the author hope airline tickets will be more expensive?
A. To limit the development of tourism. B. To create a sense of equality in society.
C. To help people value their traveling experience. D. To make people less excited about travelling.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章指出现在很多游客旅游缺乏有意义的体验,且旅游对环境造成破坏,即便游客有环保意识也难改变行为,作者希望提高旅行成本来解决问题。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“I think we’ve almost been conditioned to become tourists, to the extent that a lot of people engage in tourism without actually considering why they’re doing so.(我认为我们几乎已经习惯于成为游客,以至于很多人去旅游,却没有真正考虑他们为什么要这样做)”和第二段中“There are plenty of people who will go to the same place every year, because they’re comfortable and familiar with it. People are experiencing less and less the places they are at. They might be there in body, but not necessarily in mind(有很多人每年都会去同一个地方,因为他们对那里感到舒适和熟悉。人们对所处之地的体验越来越少。他们可能人在那里,但心不一定在)”可知,作者提到大多数游客的问题是他们只是身体在旅游目的地,却没有用心去感受,即他们无法获得有意义的旅行体验。故选D项。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。划线短语下文“It is reported that the carbon emissions from air travel accounted for 2.5% of global emissions in 2019, and this figure may be three times by 2050.(据报道,2019年航空旅行的碳排放占全球碳排放的2.5%,到2050年这一数字可能会达到三倍)”说明了旅游对环境产生了不良影响。所以“On the other side, our travel has taken a toll on the environment.(另一方面,我们的旅行taken a toll环境)”中动词短语taken a toll on的意思是“损害”,与B项“Damaged”同义。故选B项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“And even those people who regularly consume or behave in an environmentally friendly fashion actually temporarily forget their environmental commitments, and behave like normal tourists. They do suffer some kind of eco guilt, but nevertheless they continue to travel, and they continue to fly.(即使是那些经常以环保方式消费或行事的人,实际上也会暂时忘记他们的环保承诺,表现得像普通游客一样。他们确实会有某种生态负罪感,但尽管如此,他们还是继续旅行,继续坐飞机)”可知,尽管一些游客有环保意识,但很难改变自己的旅游行为,说明游客很难受到环保意识的影响。故选A项。
11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“However, to some extent, I hope there will be a significant rise in the cost of travel, or at least in air travel. In my opinion, only in this way can people realize the value of travel experience and really enjoy it.(然而,在某种程度上,我希望旅行成本,至少是航空旅行成本会大幅上升。在我看来,只有这样,人们才能意识到旅行体验的价值并真正享受它)”可知,作者希望机票更贵是因为他希望通过增加旅行成本的方式来帮助人们重视他们的旅行体验。故选C项。
D
When I began to learn Chinese, I pursued what many around me saw as an unconventional strategy. Instead of painstakingly writing out characters and practising sentence order, I set out to make as much of a fool of myself as possible. I spoke my mistake-ridden Chinese with friends, annoyed teachers with bad jokes and punished my ears with native music and podcasts. It wasn’t perfect, but it was enough to interview people and read short news articles in just a year.
Organizational psychologist Adam Grant neatly sums up this method alongside other systems and qualities in his new book. “Being a creature of discomfort,” Grant writes, “can unlock hidden potential in many different types of learning.” This is just one character skill the Wharton professor believes can unlock an individual’s potential to do greater things than their background or experience might suggest. This is essential for more than learning a skill or a language; this is what he says takes individuals to the pinnacle of their industry.
Grant writes that universities and companies should take more steps to recognize potential, and where an individual has overcome difficulties like growing up in poverty. This quantifying the unquantifiable could be done, he suggests, by looking at the rate of change of a student’s grades as well as the final score.
The example of Mexican-American José Hernández comes to mind. The astronaut attained his dream of joining NASA after being rejected countless times by a system that did not take into account his different experiences working as a farm labourer when he was young and overcoming struggles.
Systems, therefore, need to change to find the best people. This is also a key message in the book: Improve the pipelines so that better people come up in the future.
12. What did the author do to learn Chinese initially?
A. He read the latest news stories.
B. He wrote out characters carefully.
C. He did sentence order exercises regularly.
D. He spoke the language regardless of errors.
13. What might lead one to remarkable success according to Grant?
A. Keeping comfortable relationships.
B. Obtaining relevant work experience.
C. Having a strong educational background.
D. Putting oneself in uncomfortable situations.
14. What does Grant expect schools to do?
A. Prioritize students’ social skills.
B. Focus on students’ final assessment results.
C. Track the progress of students’ performance.
D. Ask students to learn from great individuals.
15. What might be the title for Grant’s new book?
A. Breaking Through Rejections: You Are Your Own Boss
B. Hidden Potential: The Science of Achieving Greater Things
C. Path to Success: Breaking Restrictions for Personal Growth
D. From Poverty to Pinnacle: Redefining Success Through Strategies
【答案】12. D 13. D 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了作者学习汉语的方法,并引用了组织心理学家亚当•格兰特的新书中的观点,强调了将自己置于不适的环境中可以激发潜能,以及大学和公司应该采取措施识别个人的潜能。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“Instead of painstakingly writing out characters and practising sentence order, I set out to make as much of a fool of myself as possible. I spoke my mistake-ridden Chinese with friends.(我没有费心地去写汉字和练习句子顺序,而是尽量让自己出丑。我和朋友们说着我错误百出的汉语。)”可知,作者最初学习汉语时,是不管有没有错误都说汉语。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“‘Being a creature of discomfort,’ Grant writes, ‘can unlock hidden potential in many different types of learning.’ This is just one character skill the Wharton professor believes can unlock an individual’s potential to do greater things than their background or experience might suggest.(格兰特写道:‘成为一个不适的生物,可以在许多不同类型的学习中释放隐藏的潜力。’沃顿商学院的这位教授认为,这只是释放个人潜力的一种性格技能,这种潜力可以让一个人做出比他们的背景或经历所暗示的更伟大的事情。)”可知,根据格兰特的说法,把自己置于不舒服的环境中可能会导致一个人取得非凡的成功。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Grant writes that universities and companies should take more steps to recognize potential, and where an individual has overcome difficulties like growing up in poverty. This quantifying the unquantifiable could be done, he suggests, by looking at the rate of change of a student’s grades as well as the final score.(格兰特写道,大学和公司应该采取更多措施来识别潜力,以及个人在何处克服了困难,比如在贫困中成长。他建议,通过观察学生成绩的变化率以及最终成绩,就可以对无法量化的东西进行量化。)”可知,格兰特希望学校追踪学生表现的进步。故选C。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。第二段提到“‘Being a creature of discomfort,’ Grant writes, ‘can unlock hidden potential in many different types of learning.’ This is just one character skill the Wharton professor believes can unlock an individual’s potential to do greater things than their background or experience might suggest. This is essential for more than learning a skill or a language; this is what he says takes individuals to the pinnacle of their industry.(格兰特写道:‘成为一个不适的生物,可以在许多不同类型的学习中释放隐藏的潜力。’沃顿商学院的这位教授认为,这只是释放个人潜力的一种性格技能,这种潜力可以让一个人做出比他们的背景或经历所暗示的更伟大的事情。这不仅仅对学习一项技能或一门语言至关重要;他说,这能让个人登上他们行业的顶峰。)”可知,格兰特认为将自己置于不适的环境中可以激发潜能,以及大学和公司应该采取措施识别个人的潜能,由此可知,格兰特的新书的标题可能是隐藏的潜力:实现更伟大成就的科学。故选B。

【36题详解】
考查动词时态语态。句意:它是由一群才华横溢的中国研究人员开发的,旨在推进人工智能技术。空处是谓语动词,主语It指代DeepSeek,与动词develop之间是被动关系,且动作发生在过去,故使用一般过去时的被动语态。故填was developed。
【37题详解】

考查冠词。句意:它得益于中国对人工智能研究的持续投入和该领域丰富的人才库。空格处修饰名词短语“rich talent pool”,后面的“in this field”为其定语,所以特指“该领域”的人才库,应用定冠词the。故填the。
【41题详解】
考查动词时态。句意:DeepSeek背后的研究人员为提高其算法和性能做出了大量努力。主语The researchers与动词make之间是主动关系,且动作发生在过去并对现在有影响,且根据后文have incorporated可知应用现在完成时,主语为复数名词,助动词用have。故填have made。

Does AI Creation Have Artistic Value?
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Our school hosted a lively debate on the topic of whether artificial intelligence can create art last Friday.
The affirmative team highlighted examples of AI-generated art shown in galleries and sold at auctions, arguing that AI can not only imitate human styles but also innovate with new forms. The negative team countered that AI lacks the human emotion and creativity essential to true art, emphasizing that AI relies on algorithms and data, unable to truly understand or express the human experience. Finally, the judges declared the affirmative team victorious, recognizing their strong arguments and evidence.
From my point of view, true artistic value lies in human intention while AI art demonstrates technical brilliance. Art reflects personal struggles and cultural identity which AI lacks. However, AI can inspire creativity by offering new tools. Let humans remain the heart of art, with AI as a collaborative partner.

第二节 (满分25分)
47. 阅读下面短文,根据所给情节进行续写,使之构成一个完整的故事。
It all started when my dad brought home a very big surprise — which was actually a very little surprise. “Ta-da!” he announced pulling a sheet off a cage, magician-style. “Meet Mr. Nibbles!”
“A hamster(仓鼠)!” I cheered.
“He’s so cute,” said Tex. “Hello, Mr. Nibbles, I already love you so much.” Tex whispered.
Seeing how we reacted, dad smiled, “Well, congratulations, Mr. Nibbles. You have found yourself a new home!”
It took a few weeks for our fuzzy (毛茸茸的) friend to get comfortable. At first he poked (探出) his head out of his cage only to take a sip of water and fill his cheeks with food. But once he got settled in, he was happy and playful. He sometimes slid away from the cage, and even begged for food, making a hissing (嘶嘶声的) sound as if saying thanks. Having Mr. Nibble 's around made our summer much more fun.
Before we knew it, it was time to go back to school. I was excited to see friends I hadn’t seen in a really long time, but, to be honest, I was also nervous about all the new stuff. That’s why I made sure I was extra prepared. My plan was to wake up early, put on my carefully laid-out clothes, eat my carefully chosen breakfast, and place my thought-out lunch in my carefully arranged backpack. Then I’d ride my carefully cleaned bike to school and enter my brand-new classroom. Hopefully, preparing ahead of time could make me feel calmer going into the back-to-school day!
Everything went according to plan — until, well, it didn't My new teacher, Mr. Jax, who seemed very serious, started out by going over the class rules. Then he asked each of us to say a quick something about our summer vacation. Most kids seemed pretty shy after being apart for a while and said only a few words. Soon it would be my turn.
Paragraph 1:
Suddenly I heard a familiar hissing sound coming from my backpack.
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Paragraph 2:
Now everybody was looking at me!
__________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】Suddenly I heard a familiar hissing sound coming from my backpack. Was it the sound of my hamster? I unzipped my backpack — and very quickly zipped it back up again. There he was! What if he wasn’t OK? What if I got into trouble when the teacher found out? My heart started beating super fast. This was definitely not how my first day back at school was supposed to go! Just then, Mr Jax asked me, “Arizona, are you all right? Would you like to share?”
Now everybody was looking at me! Taking some low, slow breaths, I began to talk about my summer with Mr. Nibbles and explained what was going on. After hearing me out, Mr. Jax said softly, “Why don’t you introduce Mr. Nibbles to us all?” His words were met with cheers and applause from my classmates. Gingerly, I cupped the little playful creature out of my backpack. All kids gathered around, petting our fuzzy friend, talking and laughing. That’s how my back-to-school day turned out.
