Tonight, i'll continue to share how we can use art to spread the word about the changing climate in our day today lives. Climate change can be hard to see, but some places will feel the changes sooner than others. The city I live in is very flat and close to the waterline, and rising sea levels are already creating floods. So I decided to do something to make IT impossible to ignore. I started in our project called underwater home owners association and painted numbers on two thousands of large signs. Each number showed how high someone's house was above sea level. A one would mean that if the sea level rose one foot, the building would flood. I gave the science to homeowners who put them in their yards. Kids painted more science and put them near their schools. And the long, busy roads, the project has already had a real world effect. The people who put the signs in their yards created a real homeowners association to address climate change in their communities. Good evening.

Passage B
Elizabeth Galicia, her 2-year-old daughter Ivy’ona and a class of preschoolers hung out in the shade near the preschool’s temporary outdoor reading area on a recent Thursday.
“Remember how I told you about families?” Elizabeth asked Ivy’ona.
“Yes,” the preschooler replied.
“Yes, and how someone like you, and someone like me, matter?” Elizabeth said.
“Matter,” Ivy’ona repeated.
Pages from the book Every Child Matters are taped to yard signs lining a path near Daybreak Star Preschool in Seattle’s Magnolia neighborhood. It’s part of Seattle Public Library’s StoryWalks, which highlight Native American history and culture.
Elizabeth works at Daybreak Star Preschool. She said there’s a change in kids when they have story time outside. “You can see that they’re so excited they want to run out,” she said. “And then they get so surprised. ‘What is this? Can you tell me more?’ They ask many questions.”
This is the fourth year Seattle Public Library has partnered with Daybreak Star Preschool to pick four books. Each book will spend a week at one of four locations in Magnolia. This year the library is handing out passports for families to check off when they visit each location and read each book. “As you’re going through the StoryWalk, look at your passport,” said Lori Walsh, director at Daybreak Star. “There are suggested questions that you can talk with your family members about to kind of enrich the story experience.”
She said the books picked for the StoryWalks feature characters that reflect the preschool’s students and their families. “We want the people to look like the people they see in their families, so they make that connection,” Walsh said. And that idea rang true for 2-year-old Ivy’ona. When asked what her favorite part of the StoryWalk at Daybreak Star was, she pointed to the book cover of Every Child Matters. It’s an illustration of a mother and her child.
“That’s my mom. That’s me,” she said.
24. What is the purpose of Seattle Public Library’s StoryWalks?
A. To strengthen family bonds. B. To boost community spirit.
C. To promote cultural awareness. D. To build parent - school cooperation.
25. How does outdoor story time benefit children?
A. It makes them more inquiring. B. It helps them learn to read faster.
C. It teaches them more about nature. D. It gets them to know the school layout.
26. What function is expected of the passports?
A. To explain the illustrations in the books. B. To direct families to each StoryWalk location.
C. To encourage children to write their own stories. D. To inspire family conversations about the books.
27. Why did Ivy’ona feel connected to Every Child Matters?
A. The book was about her school. B. The book was read by her teacher.
C. The cover showed her and her mom. D. The story reminded her of her family.
Passage C
Conductor Sir Antonio Pappano is celebrated for being a warm-hearted “people person”. But there’s one thing that makes his blood run cold: when he hears opera being accused of being an art form that’s only for a wealthy elite (精英). “I get very annoyed by people who say we’re elitist,” he says passionately in a new documentary. This is “a misconception that totally distorts (歪曲) the image of opera”, he adds.
Pappano, who became music director at the Royal Opera House (ROH), Covent Garden in 2002, is the subject of A Time of Change, part of the BBC documentary series Take Me to the Opera. The main focus of the film is Pappano’s mission to open up opera to everyone.
Pappano is invested in bringing new blood to opera, via programmes like the ROH’s schools matinees (日场), which offer young people low-cost tickets to opera productions. Also, its Youth Opera talent development programme gives children aged seven to 13 the chance to try its music and drama training.
Over at the English National Opera (ENO), the company has “opera for all” in its mission statement. It does not assume knowledge of opera; its website has key figures of the organisation explaining what opera is and how it’s made; and the site illustrates how it skillfully reimagines crowd-pleasers, like La Traviata to be performed in new ways, alongside daring new works, such as 7 Deaths of Maria Callas.
Opera must change, Arts Council England (ACE) CEO Darren Henley wrote in an article: “A new generation is welcoming opera and music presented in new ways: opera in car parks... in pubs, opera on your tablet”. In truth, most opera companies are not resistant to change; they have presences on the popular digital platforms to reach a wider audience. And there’s also opera at the cinema.
28. Which of the following does Pappano disagree with?
A. Opera is an elite art form. B. Opera has a calming effect.
C. Most elitists enjoy watching opera. D. Most conductors are warm - hearted.
29. Why does the ROH launch some programmes?
A. To compete with the ENO. B. To increase its ticket sales.
C. To expose more people to opera. D. To promote a BBC documentary.
30. What is special about the ENO’s La Traviata?
A. It shares knowledge of opera with audiences.
B It has been recreated in new ways.
C. It is filled with crowd-pleasing content.
D. It is a pioneering new work.
31. What is Henley’s attitude towards opera’s future?
A. Hopeful. B. Doubtful. C. Reserved. D. Unconcerned.
Passage D
In a time when most of us feel particularly enthusiastic about the thought of a vacation, the sense of responsibility we have as travelers also seems to weigh heavier than ever — terms like “carbon footprint” and “voluntourism” have become embedded in our travel vocabulary.
But while our attitudes towards things like single-use plastics may be clear-cut, confusion around the concept of voluntourism remains. There are countless companies that promise to make it easy for travelers to pair volunteer time with a trip they’re already taking, giving us the ever-so-convenient offering of voluntourism. But the difference between “volunteering” and “voluntouring” is stark — primarily because volunteering for a short period of time is rarely enough time to do anything beyond boosting the traveler’s own sense of achievement.
Zina Bencheikh, managing director of Intrepid Travel, the industry’s first B-Corp-certified tour operator, believes that problems often arise when volunteering and tourism are combined. For that reason, the company’s partners are indirectly supported through its nonprofit offshoot, The Intrepid Foundation, which is funded by a part of every customer booking. One such partner is Education For All, a charity based in a rural area of Morocco where more than 80 percent of girls are uneducated; they get volunteers to assist them by teaching art and foreign languages.
“Education For All gets people to come for long periods so they can become immersed (沉浸的) in the culture, understand all the customs, and start to have a positive impact — but it takes six months to a year for that to happen,” says Bencheikh. “If those volunteers then happen to discover the country and travel, it wouldn’t be considered voluntourism.”
So, how can tourists give back in a really responsible way? Change starts at home — whether it’s understanding the history of the place you’re visiting, or researching native businesses that are making impactful changes on the ground.
And as for truly impactful volunteer work? It’s no vacation.
32. What does the underlined word “stark” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Slight. B. Expected. C. Obvious. D. Complex.
33. Why does Intrepid Travel give support to its partners?
A. To promote its user-friendly services. B. To encourage long-term commitment.
C. To improve girls’ education in Morocco. D. To ensure sustainable tourism practices.
34. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 5?
A. Offer a suggestion. B. Make a summary.
C. Express a wish. D. Leave a question.
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Why Is Voluntouring A Rather Bad Option?
B. What Benefits Can Voluntourism Bring Us?
C. Why Is It Impossible To Balance Travel And Volunteering?
D. What Does It Actually Mean To Give Back On Vacation?

67. Read the following passage and continue the story according to the given plot, ensuring a coherent and complete narrative.
A few years ago, I had just graduated from high school. It was my first summer working with the Special Olympics. I was assigned as a trainer for a young man named Joey. He had Down’s syndrome (唐氏综合征) and was a joy to be with. He always wore a smile, looking at the world through his thick glasses, which he polished habitually.
Joey’s race was the long one-quarter-mile run, the full lap around the track. We hit the track every Saturday and his time slowly improved until he was finishing in just less than three minutes.
The day of the race, I drove him to a local high school where the Special Olympics were being held. Joey was so wound up he could hardly sit in his seat, his hands tapping constantly on his knees, stopping only to polish and repolish his glasses. We arrived and signed in. On our way to the sidelines, I realized that something was wrong. I asked Joey where his glasses were. He stared back at me innocently and said, “I don’t know...”
I got him started on his stretching and went back to search the car. I found no glasses. I walked back through the parking lot searching the ground, but there was no sign of them. When I returned to the field, Joey was still stretching. Knowing that he was nearly blind without his glasses, my heart was breaking.
“I don’t know if you’re going to be able to race” I said. “Without your glasses, you could get hurt.”
“But I’m going to win a medal,” he said, voice shaking.
I struggled with my own disappointment and Joey’s pain. Then I had an idea. I stood Joey in his lane (跑道) and asked if he could see the white lines on his right and left. He looked at his feet and said yes. Still unsure if he could do it, but out of options, I led him back to the starting area.
The other coaches and I got our runners into their lanes and headed toward the finish line to cheer them on.
Note:
1. The word count should be around 150 words.
2. Please answer in the specified format below:
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
The starting gun fired and the runners were off !

I worried and started forward, but Joey rose to his feet.

C. Climate change is controllable.
【答案】18. B 19. C 20. A
【解析】
【原文】 M: Good evening. Tonight, I’ll continue to share how we can use art to spread the word about the changing climate. In our day-to-day lives, climate change can be hard to see. But some places will feel the changes sooner than others. The city I live in is very flat and close to the waterline. And rising sea levels are already creating floods. So, I decided to do something to make it impossible to ignore. I started an art project called Underwater Homeowners Association and painted numbers onto thousands of large signs. Each number showed how high someone’s house was above sea level. A one would mean that if the sea level rose one foot, the building would flood. I gave the signs to homeowners who put them in their yards. Kids painted more signs and put them near their schools and along busy roads. The project has already had a real-world effect. The people who put the signs in their yards created a real homeowners association to address climate change in their communities.

Passage B
Elizabeth Galicia, her 2-year-old daughter Ivy’ona and a class of preschoolers hung out in the shade near the preschool’s temporary outdoor reading area on a recent Thursday.
“Remember how I told you about families?” Elizabeth asked Ivy’ona.
“Yes,” the preschooler replied.
“Yes, and how someone like you, and someone like me, matter?” Elizabeth said.
“Matter,” Ivy’ona repeated.
Pages from the book Every Child Matters are taped to yard signs lining a path near Daybreak Star Preschool in Seattle’s Magnolia neighborhood. It’s part of Seattle Public Library’s StoryWalks, which highlight Native American history and culture.
Elizabeth works at Daybreak Star Preschool. She said there’s a change in kids when they have story time outside. “You can see that they’re so excited they want to run out,” she said. “And then they get so surprised. ‘What is this? Can you tell me more?’ They ask many questions.”
This is the fourth year Seattle Public Library has partnered with Daybreak Star Preschool to pick four books. Each book will spend a week at one of four locations in Magnolia. This year the library is handing out passports for families to check off when they visit each location and read each book. “As you’re going through the StoryWalk, look at your passport,” said Lori Walsh, director at Daybreak Star. “There are suggested questions that you can talk with your family members about to kind of enrich the story experience.”
She said the books picked for the StoryWalks feature characters that reflect the preschool’s students and their families. “We want the people to look like the people they see in their families, so they make that connection,” Walsh said. And that idea rang true for 2-year-old Ivy’ona. When asked what her favorite part of the StoryWalk at Daybreak Star was, she pointed to the book cover of Every Child Matters. It’s an illustration of a mother and her child.
“That’s my mom. That’s me,” she said.
24. What is the purpose of Seattle Public Library’s StoryWalks?
A. To strengthen family bonds. B. To boost community spirit.
C. To promote cultural awareness. D. To build parent - school cooperation.
25. How does outdoor story time benefit children?
A. It makes them more inquiring. B. It helps them learn to read faster.
C. It teaches them more about nature. D. It gets them to know the school layout.
26. What function is expected of the passports?
A. To explain the illustrations in the books. B. To direct families to each StoryWalk location.
C. To encourage children to write their own stories. D. To inspire family conversations about the books.
27. Why did Ivy’ona feel connected to Every Child Matters?
A. The book was about her school. B. The book was read by her teacher.
C. The cover showed her and her mom. D. The story reminded her of her family.
【答案】24. C 25. C 26. D 27. C
【解析】

【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据第八段中“This year the library is handing out passports for families to check off when they visit each location and read each book. “As you’re going through the StoryWalk, look at your passport,” said Lori Walsh, director at Daybreak Star. “There are suggested questions that you can talk with your family members about to kind of enrich the story experience.” (今年,图书馆还会给家庭发放护照,家庭每到一个地点阅读一本书,就可以在护照上打卡记录。“在你们进行“故事漫步”时,看看你们的护照,”“黎明之星”的负责人洛里·沃尔什说,“上面有一些建议的问题,你们可以和家人一起讨论,以丰富故事体验。”)”可知,发放护照是期望激发家庭关于书籍的交流。故选D。

Passage C
Conductor Sir Antonio Pappano is celebrated for being a warm-hearted “people person”. But there’s one thing that makes his blood run cold: when he hears opera being accused of being an art form that’s only for a wealthy elite (精英). “I get very annoyed by people who say we’re elitist,” he says passionately in a new documentary. This is “a misconception that totally distorts (歪曲) the image of opera”, he adds.
Pappano, who became music director at the Royal Opera House (ROH), Covent Garden in 2002, is the subject of A Time of Change, part of the BBC documentary series Take Me to the Opera. The main focus of the film is Pappano’s mission to open up opera to everyone.
Pappano is invested in bringing new blood to opera, via programmes like the ROH’s schools matinees (日场), which offer young people low-cost tickets to opera productions. Also, its Youth Opera talent development programme gives children aged seven to 13 the chance to try its music and drama training.
Over at the English National Opera (ENO), the company has “opera for all” in its mission statement. It does not assume knowledge of opera; its website has key figures of the organisation explaining what opera is and how it’s made; and the site illustrates how it skillfully reimagines crowd-pleasers, like La Traviata to be performed in new ways, alongside daring new works, such as 7 Deaths of Maria Callas.
Opera must change, Arts Council England (ACE) CEO Darren Henley wrote in an article: “A new generation is welcoming opera and music presented in new ways: opera in car parks... in pubs, opera on your tablet”. In truth, most opera companies are not resistant to change; they have presences on the popular digital platforms to reach a wider audience. And there’s also opera at the cinema.
28. Which of the following does Pappano disagree with?
A. Opera is an elite art form. B. Opera has a calming effect.
C. Most elitists enjoy watching opera. D. Most conductors are warm - hearted.
29. Why does the ROH launch some programmes?
A. To compete with the ENO. B. To increase its ticket sales.
C. To expose more people to opera. D. To promote a BBC documentary.
30. What is special about the ENO’s La Traviata?
A. It shares knowledge of opera with audiences.
B. It has been recreated in new ways.
C. It is filled with crowd-pleasing content.
D. It is a pioneering new work.
31. What is Henley’s attitude towards opera’s future?
A. Hopeful. B. Doubtful. C. Reserved. D. Unconcerned.
【答案】28. A 29. C 30. B 31. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了歌剧指挥家帕帕诺致力于让歌剧面向大众,皇家歌剧院和英国国家歌剧院也有相关举措,同时有人认为歌剧以新形式呈现前景乐观。
【28题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Conductor Sir Antonio Pappano is celebrated for being a warm-hearted ‘people person’. But there’s one thing that makes his blood run cold: when he hears opera being accused of being an art form that’s only for a wealthy elite (精英). ‘I get very annoyed by people who say we’re elitist,’ he says passionately in a new documentary.(指挥家安东尼奥·帕帕诺爵士以热情亲民的作风深受喜欢。但有一件事让他不寒而栗:当他听到歌剧被指责是一种只为富有的精英阶层服务的艺术形式时。他在一部新纪录片中激动地说:“那些说我们是精英主义者的人让我非常恼火。”)”可知,帕帕诺不同意歌剧是一种精英艺术形式这一观点。故选A项。
【29题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Pappano is invested in bringing new blood to opera, via programmes like the ROH’s schools matinees (日场), which offer young people low cost tickets to opera productions. Also, its Youth Opera talent development programme gives children aged seven to 13 the chance to try its music and drama training.(帕帕诺致力于为歌剧注入新鲜血液,通过皇家歌剧院的学校日场等项目,为年轻人提供低价的歌剧演出门票。此外,其青年歌剧人才发展项目让7至13岁的孩子有机会尝试音乐和戏剧训练)”可知,皇家歌剧院为年轻人提供低价的歌剧演出门票,让7至13岁的孩子有机会尝试音乐和戏剧训练,这些项目是为了让更多人接触到歌剧。故选C项。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段中“...and the site illustrates how it skillfully reimagines crowd pleasers, like La Traviata to be performed in new ways(网站展示了它如何巧妙地重新构思受欢迎的作品,比如《茶花女》以新的方式上演)”可知,英国国家歌剧院的《茶花女》以新的方式被重新创作。故选B项。
【31题详解】

Passage D
In a time when most of us feel particularly enthusiastic about the thought of a vacation, the sense of responsibility we have as travelers also seems to weigh heavier than ever — terms like “carbon footprint” and “voluntourism” have become embedded in our travel vocabulary.
But while our attitudes towards things like single-use plastics may be clear-cut, confusion around the concept of voluntourism remains. There are countless companies that promise to make it easy for travelers to pair volunteer time with a trip they’re already taking, giving us the ever-so-convenient offering of voluntourism. But the difference between “volunteering” and “voluntouring” is stark — primarily because volunteering for a short period of time is rarely enough time to do anything beyond boosting the traveler’s own sense of achievement.
Zina Bencheikh, managing director of Intrepid Travel, the industry’s first B-Corp-certified tour operator, believes that problems often arise when volunteering and tourism are combined. For that reason, the company’s partners are indirectly supported through its nonprofit offshoot, The Intrepid Foundation, which is funded by a part of every customer booking. One such partner is Education For All, a charity based in a rural area of Morocco where more than 80 percent of girls are uneducated; they get volunteers to assist them by teaching art and foreign languages.
“Education For All gets people to come for long periods so they can become immersed (沉浸的) in the culture, understand all the customs, and start to have a positive impact — but it takes six months to a year for that to happen,” says Bencheikh. “If those volunteers then happen to discover the country and travel, it wouldn’t be considered voluntourism.”
So, how can tourists give back in a really responsible way? Change starts at home — whether it’s understanding the history of the place you’re visiting, or researching native businesses that are making impactful changes on the ground.
And as for truly impactful volunteer work? It’s no vacation.
32. What does the underlined word “stark” in paragraph 2 mean?
A. Slight. B. Expected. C. Obvious. D. Complex.
33. Why does Intrepid Travel give support to its partners?
A. To promote its user-friendly services. B. To encourage long-term commitment.
C. To improve girls’ education in Morocco. D. To ensure sustainable tourism practices.
34. What does the author intend to do in paragraph 5?
A. Offer a suggestion. B. Make a summary.
C. Express a wish. D. Leave a question.
35. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Why Is Voluntouring A Rather Bad Option?
B. What Benefits Can Voluntourism Bring Us?
C. Why Is It Impossible To Balance Travel And Volunteering?
D. What Does It Actually Mean To Give Back On Vacation?
【答案】32. C 33. B 34. A 35. D
【解析】

32题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“But the difference between ‘volunteering’ and ‘voluntouring’ is stark — primarily because volunteering for a short period of time is rarely enough time to do anything beyond boosting the traveler’s own sense of achievement. (但‘志愿服务’和‘志愿旅游’之间的区别是stark——主要是因为短期的志愿服务很少能带来除了提升旅行者自身成就感之外的任何效果)”可知,短期的志愿服务很少能带来除了提升旅行者自身成就感之外的任何效果,因此志愿服务和志愿旅游之间的区别是明显的,stark在此处表示“明显的”,强调两者区别显著。故选C。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“For that reason, the company’s partners are indirectly supported through its nonprofit offshoot, The Intrepid Foundation, which is funded by a part of every customer booking. (因此,该公司的合作伙伴通过其非营利分支The Intrepid Foundation间接获得支持,该基金由每位客户预订的一部分资金资助)”以及第四段中“‘Education For All gets people to come for long periods so they can become immersed (沉浸的) in the culture, understand all the customs, and start to have a positive impact — but it takes six months to a year for that to happen,’ says Bencheikh. (Bencheikh说:“‘全民教育’组织让人们长期参与,这样他们就能沉浸在当地文化中,了解所有的习俗,并开始产生积极影响——但这需要六到十二个月的时间才能实现。”)”可推知,Intrepid Travel支持合作伙伴是为了鼓励长期的志愿服务承诺。故选B。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第五段“So, how can tourists give back in a really responsible way? Change starts at home — whether it’s understanding the history of the place you’re visiting, or researching native businesses that are making impactful changes on the ground. (那么,游客如何以真正负责任的方式回馈呢?改变从家里开始——无论是了解你要去的地方的历史,还是研究在当地产生重大影响的本土企业)”可推知,作者在此段旨在提供建议。故选A。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“In a time when most of us feel particularly enthusiastic about the thought of a vacation, the sense of responsibility we have as travelers also seems to weigh heavier than ever — terms like “carbon footprint” and “voluntourism” have become embedded in our travel vocabulary. (在我们大多数人对度假感到特别热情的时候,我们作为旅行者的责任感似乎也比以往任何时候都更加沉重——“碳足迹”和“志愿旅游”等术语已经成为我们旅行词汇的一部分)”以及最后一段“And as for truly impactful volunteer work? It’s no vacation. (至于真正有影响力的志愿工作?绝非度假)”结合全文内容可知,文章围绕“志愿旅游”展开,探讨其与志愿服务的区别,以及游客在旅行中如何真正负责任地回馈社会。D选项“What Does It Actually Mean To Give Back On Vacation? (在假期中回馈社会到底意味着什么?)”最能概括文章主旨,是文章的最佳标题。故选D。

【答案】Good afternoon, everyone!
I think it’s OK to use abbreviations. Firstly, abbreviations are time saving. In our fast paced life, we can convey information more quickly. For example, “ASAP” stands for “as soon as possible”. Moreover, using abbreviations can make our communication more concise and efficient, especially when we are in a hurry to express our ideas.
Secondly, they are widely used in modern communication, like text messages and social media. It has become a trend. Additionally, it helps to create a more relaxed and friendly atmosphere in daily conversations, making the interaction more enjoyable.
Thank you for listening!

Section II Continuation Writing (25 points)
67. Read the following passage and continue the story according to the given plot, ensuring a coherent and complete narrative.
A few years ago, I had just graduated from high school. It was my first summer working with the Special Olympics. I was assigned as a trainer for a young man named Joey. He had Down’s syndrome (唐氏综合征) and was a joy to be with. He always wore a smile, looking at the world through his thick glasses, which he polished habitually.
Joey’s race was the long one-quarter-mile run, the full lap around the track. We hit the track every Saturday and his time slowly improved until he was finishing in just less than three minutes.
The day of the race, I drove him to a local high school where the Special Olympics were being held. Joey was so wound up he could hardly sit in his seat, his hands tapping constantly on his knees, stopping only to polish and repolish his glasses. We arrived and signed in. On our way to the sidelines, I realized that something was wrong. I asked Joey where his glasses were. He stared back at me innocently and said, “I don’t know...”
I got him started on his stretching and went back to search the car. I found no glasses. I walked back through the parking lot searching the ground, but there was no sign of them. When I returned to the field, Joey was still stretching. Knowing that he was nearly blind without his glasses, my heart was breaking.
“I don’t know if you’re going to be able to race,” I said. “Without your glasses, you could get hurt.”
“But I’m going to win a medal,” he said, voice shaking.
I struggled with my own disappointment and Joey’s pain. Then I had an idea. I stood Joey in his lane (跑道) and asked if he could see the white lines on his right and left. He looked at his feet and said yes. Still unsure if he could do it, but out of options, I led him back to the starting area.
The other coaches and I got our runners into their lanes and headed toward the finish line to cheer them on.
Note:
1. The word count should be around 150 words.
2. Please answer in the specified format below:
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;

【答案】
The starting gun fired and the runners were off! Joey’s eyes widened, desperately scanning the ground for the white lines. At first, he clung to the faint stripes beneath his feet, but as the world blurred, his pace wobbled. He tripped, face planting into the track, yet sprang up instantly, hands patting the asphalt like a blind man seeking a guide. His legs trembled, knees streaked with dirt, but his voice roared, “I can do it!” as he lurched forward, following the rhythm of his own breath. Runners vanished ahead, but Joey’s stubborn shadow inched on, a lonely flame against the track.
I worried and started forward, but Joey rose to his feet. With a final push, he threw his head back, arms outstretched as if embracing the air. The crowd gasped — then erupted. When his toe crossed the finish line, seconds after the last runner, the silence shattered into thunderous applause. Tears burned my cheeks as I reached him. “You’re a champion,” I whispered. Joey grinned, polishing empty air where his glasses should be. “I saw… the finish,” he said, though his eyes saw nothing but courage. That day, Joey didn’t win a medal — but he taught everyone that victory isn’t about speed, but the strength to rise, again and again.
