Rain or shine, Miss Alice faithfully guided children safely across the busy streets, ensuring not a single child was injured under her watchful eye. But her impact stretched beyond mere safety measures. Miss Alice became a cherished figure for her warmth, positivity, and devotion to the wellbeing of every child she encountered.
On her final day, the community came together in a heartwarming display of appreciation.

Even older students, who hadn't needed her assistance for years, returned to express their gratitude and bid her farewell.

(2024·福建省莆田第一中学高一下期中)Courage is a huge theme in my life, a quality I constantly seek, appreciate, and analyze. The root of “courage” is “cor”, the Latin word for heart. In the beginning, courage meant “to speak one's mind by telling all one's heart”. While courage is often associated with heroism nowadays, I believe true courage lies in being open and honest about who we are and how we feel.
I recently witnessed an example of true courage. During a mountainclimbing trip with my 15yearold daughter and some college students, I noticed her struggling to keep up with the group. Despite my suggestions to rest, she persisted until she couldn't breathe properly.
课后课时作业
43
Panicked, I called out to the front for help, but there was no response, and we had no cellphone signal. Fortunately, two students just came back to check out on us. They offered assistance and calmed us down. As we continued at a slower pace, they shared their own experiences, from starting out as beginners like my daughter to becoming consistently among the first to reach the peak.
“You know,” one of them said, looking at my daughter, “I was just like you when I started. But with practice and proper pace, you'll get there too.”
“Yeah, don't let your lack of experience stop you,” the other added. “It's okay to admit when you're struggling or not feeling alright. In fact, it's important to speak up and ask for help when you need it. That's how we improve and grow.”
课后课时作业
44
Reaching the mountain top was a huge relief for both my daughter and me. However, the two students addressed the celebrating group directly, emphasizing the importance of staying together in tough environments. Their words led the group to apologize to us for overlooking our struggle.
I was totally amazed at their bravery, and my daughter learned that it's okay to be the least experienced in a group. Courage, I've come to realize, has a ripple effect. Each time we choose courage, we inspire those around us to be a little braver and make the world a little better.

Ⅱ 七选五
(2024·江苏省溧阳市高一下期末)Ethics (道德规范) are concerned with people's moral actions. One type of ethics is school ethics. __1__ They include students, teachers and administrators. Ethics designed for each of these groups are usually created within the institution, through professional organizations, or by both.
School ethics provide ethical standards people are expected to follow in relation to working with others and in the decisionmaking process. Ethics also bring consequences to those who don't follow school ethics. These moral rules are significant. __2__ Moreover, they encourage people to support each other and support the school with some special requirements designed for them.
课后课时作业

__3__ Particularly, students must respect their peers, teachers and administrators. Additionally, school ethics require students to respect their institutions which they're admitted into. One of the most significant factors concerning students and ethics in schools is plagiarism (剽窃)—students are required to hand in work that is uniquely their own and be prepared to suffer consequences if it is not.
Teachers and administrators are ethically guided through professional and institutional ethical codes. They typically are required to create a learning environment that promotes high ethical standards for students through modeling and instruction. Moreover, teachers and administrators should create a safe and fair learning environment. __4__

(2024· 山西省大同市第一中学忻州一中高一下期未)When Joy Diaz was growing up, her parents devoted themselves to humanitarian work. The family lived in Mexico City, and although they were anything but wealthy, they still found ways to help people who were living in extreme poverty.
“When I talk about extreme poverty, what I mean is these people lived inside the garbage dump,” Diaz said. Diaz's parents did everything they could to support those living in the dump. They started by bringing in teachers and doctors. Eventually, they were able to build a health clinic, a school, a dining hall and even set up public showers. “But while that was happening, we did not have a home. We were renters,” Diaz said.

One day, years into their effort, a man showed up at Diaz's house. His name was Jack Bloxham, and he had worked with the Diaz family in the past to provide care for community members. He'd come all the way from Richmond, Virginia. “He flew into Mexico City, hopped in a taxi, came to the house, saw my mum and just gave her this paper bag full of money, full of cash. And he said, ‘For many years, I've been wanting to buy a house for you. So here's the money. Buy a house,’” Diaz remembered.

Diaz believes this act of kindness changed her life. Her family moved into a middle class neighbourhood, and the money they saved on rent instead paid for college fee. But the impact of Bloxham's generosity didn't end there. “It changed the trajectory of generations,” Diaz explained. “Today my children live in a middle class neighbourhood, and because I am collegeeducated, I am able to have a better job than I could have had before.”
