When Mia DaPonte was young, she learned that her mother had become an Open Water Diver. Mia decided to become a diver, too. But the youngest one that can start training as a diver is 10 years old.
Once Mia came of age, she got serious. First, she got her Open Water Diver certificate (合格证书). Mia lives in Rhode Island, where the oceans are cold, and people usually can’t see very far. But she didn’t let that discourage her. It’s a rule that when one is diving, they should always have a companion — a second person working with them when diving. Mia’s mother decided to take all the courses Mia was taking to be her companion.
Mia completed 78 dives — far more than the 50 needed to become a Master Scuba Diver. But Mia had to wait for her last two courses — Advanced Open Water Diver and Rescue Diver. That’s because one has to be at least 12 years old to earn these certificates.
Over the week before her birthday, Mia did most of the training required for the last two courses and she passed the Advanced Open Water course on her birthday. The next day, when she was officially 12, Mia finished the Rescue Diver course.
That was not getting along without difficulties. Mia did three dives in one day, including one deep dive down to 17.5 meters and she had to made her night dive. The hardest part of the course was showing that she could raise an injured grow-up diver to the surface and take the steps needed to help restart their breath.
Mia says she feels proud to have become a Master Scuba Diver. But she doesn’t plan to stop there. She’s interested in getting more training as a diver. In the future, she hopes to become a marine (海的) biologist.
4. What made Mia’s mother take the same diving courses?
A. Improving her own diving skills.
B Setting a good example for Mia.
C. Watching over Mia’s training process.
D. Being Mia’s diving partner as required.
5. Why was Mia unable to become a Master Scuba Diver according to paragraph 3?
A. She couldn’t see far in the sea.
B. She didn’t have a companion.
C. She didn’t finish the dives that were needed.
D. She was too young to attend related courses.
6. What challenged Mia most about the Rescue Diver course?
A. Diving deep to 17.5 meters.
B. Finishing three dives one day.
C. Performing first aid on adults.
D. Making night diving by herself.
7. Which of the following can best describe Mia?
A. Tough and strong-willed.
B. Determined and open-minded.
C. Serious and easy-going.
D. Curious and warm-hearted.
C
Britain was once covered with rainforests, known as Celtic rainforests or Atlantic woodland. The temperate (温带的) rainforests only occur in places close to the sea with high rainfall, high humidity (湿度) and low variations in temperature and full of plants and animals. The Celtic rainforests used to spread out all across the wetter areas of the country’s west. But over the centuries the ancient woodlands were later cleared and changed into grasslands for sheep and cattle. By the start of the 20th century, Britain had become the least-wooded country in Europe, with only small parts remaining in western coastal rainforest areas.
There’s a new rainforest coming back to Britain right now. A movement is underway across Britain to recover these forgotten ecosystems. And in Devon, the first step towards achieving that has just been completed. With the help of over 100 local volunteers, more than 2,500 native trees have been planted at Devon Wildlife Trust’s Bowden Pillars site, not far from the town of Totnes. It’s hoped that another 4,500 oak, rowan, alder, hazel, birch, willow and holly trees will be planted by the end of this winter and over the coming decades, and that they’ll grow to form a thriving (欣欣向荣的) temperate rainforest.
The recovery programme, led by The Wildlife Trusts, is happening across other parts of the country, including Cornwall and Pembrokeshire and has been boosted by a significant £38 million of funding from an insurance company.
Claire Inglis, a nature reserve officer at Devon Wildlife Trust, said, “The full grown temperate rainforest will take several decades to become established, but the advantages for nature will be much swifter. The mix of young trees planted among grasslands and hedges (树篱), along with our promise not to use chemicals, will be better for local butterflies and bees, along with local birds such as yellowhammers and barn owls. It will be fascinating to see how it develops.”
8. What was mainly responsible for Britain’s lost Celtic rainforest in the past?
A. Low temperature. B. Animal farming.
C. Plant variation. D. High humidity.
9. What can we say about the movement across Britain?
A. It’s worrying. B. It’s promising.
C. It’s unrealistic. D. It’s uncontrollable.
10. What does the underlined word “swifter” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Further. B. More unlikely.
C. Quicker. D. More costly.
11. Which can be the best title for the text?
A. A Story of Destruction About Britain’s Lost Rainforests
B. The Challenges of Reviving Celtic Rainforests in Britain
C. A Nationwide Effort to Revive Lost Rainforests in Britain
D. The Truth of the Disappearance of Britain’s Celtic Rainforests
D
In 2020, scientists claimed to have found a sign of life on Venus (金星): a smelly gas called phosphine that’s made by tiny living things on Earth. The claim was quickly stirring up disagreement. Now, another smelly gas is making waves in the search for alien (外星的) life — now turning to a planet beyond our solar system. Researchers announced on April 16 that they had used data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to discover a gas called dimethyl sulfide (DMS) in the atmosphere of a distant planet called K2-18b. On Earth, DMS is mostly made by tiny ocean plants. On other planets, it could be what’s called a biosignature (生命印记) .
The University of Cambridge, which hosts several of the researchers involved in the discovery, was quick to promote the finding as the strongest sign of biological activity outside the solar system. Some media agents followed suit to publicize the DMS as a likely sign of life.
But scientists not involved in the discovery aren’t as overjoyed. For Clara Sousa-Silva, an astrochemist at Bard College who has weathered the storm of the Venus biosignature debate in 2020, she now watches history repeat itself. “The situation is disappointingly familiar. We did not learn enough from the ‘phosphine on Venus’ event,” she said.
Those scientists use JWST to discover gases in K2-18b’s atmosphere by analyzing how starlight changes as it passes through K2-18b’s atmosphere. Each gas leaves unique marks in the light which appear as squiggly lines on special graphs. They compared these lines to 20 different molecules (分子). Sousa-Silva pointed most of the molecules aren’t structurally similar to DMS.
National Geographic contacted some experts to find out what to make of this new biosignature claim. Their views are represented: It’s an interesting discovery, perhaps even an important step on the way to discovering life on other planets one day. They stressed on “one day”.
12. Why did the researchers consider DMS as a sign of life?
A. It is mostly made up of phosphine.
B. It is just as smelly as phosphine on Venus.
C. It was found on K2-18b that has living things.
D. It is mainly produced by living things on Earth.
13. What is Clara Sousa-Silva’s attitude to the new biosignature claim?
A. Doubtful. B. Excited. C. Confused. D. Uncaring.
14. How did scientists identify DMS in K2-18b’s atmosphere?
A. By observing ocean plants on K2-18b.
B. By directly collecting gas from K2-18b.
C. By studying starlight passing through its atmosphere.
D. By matching it with 20 molecules of similar structure.
15. What can be inferred from the experts’views in the last paragraph?
A. Findings from JWST’s are quite disappointing.
B. More evidence is needed to confirm the claim.
C. They believe that life surely exists on K2-18b.
D. They confirm the discovery a big achievement.

How to Value Old coins?
If you come across some old or unusual coins, you might try to figure out how much they’re worth. Here are tips to help you.
Use the year and image on the coin to run an online search. Look for the year on the coin and examine the main details of the coin. ____16____ For example, you might search “1956 silver coin with a woman in crown facing left” or “old copper coin with a cross and an eagle on it”.
Do not clean the coin to get a better look. ____17____ In fact, a strictly original coin is often worth more than a cleaned version of the same coin. To keep the value of your coin, treat it as a museum piece and properly deal with it only when the coin is likely to further devalue (贬值) because of surface contaminants (致污物).
____18____ Experts in the field can give you the most accurate (准确的), up-to-date values of your coins. They will base their judgement on their expert opinion of the coin condition and marketability. They will take into account what similar coins have been selling for lately. Besides, almost all coin dealers have the skill to identify coins. ____19____
Note that a coin’s value isn’t fixed. The value of coins can and will go up and down since they are driven by recent supply and demand and this changes over time. When lots of people want to buy a certain type of coin, the value may go up. ____20____
A. Get your coins professionally valued.
B. But if the interest fades, so does the coin’s value.
C. Figure out the highest price in the current market.
D. Just don’t let them know you want to sell so you get an honest opinion.
E. Type your description into a search engine to see if any match appears.
F. There is no faster way to ruin the value of a coin than to try removing dirt.
G. coins with little sign of use are generally worth more than those that are damaged.

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。
My parents couldn’t afford to have someone watch me at lunchtime. Because I was scared to be alone at home, I would eat quickly and run back to hide in an outside stairwell in the schoolyard to wait until afternoon classes started.
One day, Mrs. Brennan found me while getting her sweater back that had fallen out of a window. That afternoon, she told my mom that I could stay at school every lunchtime to help with some small chores (杂事), instead of going home for lunch. She would provide a meal for me as “payment”. Mom was grateful that I’d be under adult supervision (监管).
My duties started the next afternoon. When the class ended, I would race up to Mrs. Brennan’s room and get a lunch box packed with delicious food. As we ate, Mrs. Brennan listened intently to my trivial (琐碎的) childish chatter, drawing me out of my shy shell with her genuine interest. After lunch, I would clean the blackboard, chalk tray and the erasers in preparation for afternoon class.
That year, we were introduced to creative writing. Mrs. Brennan noticed my gift for writing and supplied me with extra notebooks to write down my thoughts and stories. Over time, she encouraged me to try poetry. While I was creating my poems, time seemed to stop. It was only when I saw Mrs. Brennan tidy up the blackboard that I realized I had forgotten my duties. Instead of criticizing (指责) me, she told me softly, “It was never about the chores, Mary, but about making you feel safe.”
In fifth grade, Mom made arrangements to send me elsewhere for lunch, but I continued to see Mrs. Brennan and share my creative writing with her every chance I could, never tiring of her praise and warm hugs.
On the last day of the term, she hugged me as always, but her hug was tighter and longer, saying goodbye and wishing me a good holiday.
注意:
1.续写词数应150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Summer vacation going by fast, I rushed to school, eager to see Mrs. Brennan again.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The next day, I decided to write a letter to Mrs. Brennan who was in hospital in another city.

When Mia DaPonte was young, she learned that her mother had become an Open Water Diver. Mia decided to become a diver, too. But the youngest one that can start training as a diver is 10 years old.
Once Mia came of age, she got serious. First, she got her Open Water Diver certificate (合格证书). Mia lives in Rhode Island, where the oceans are cold, and people usually can’t see very far. But she didn’t let that discourage her. It’s a rule that when one is diving, they should always have a companion — a second person working with them when diving. Mia’s mother decided to take all the courses Mia was taking to be her companion.
Mia completed 78 dives — far more than the 50 needed to become a Master Scuba Diver. But Mia had to wait for her last two courses — Advanced Open Water Diver and Rescue Diver. That’s because one has to be at least 12 years old to earn these certificates.
Over the week before her birthday, Mia did most of the training required for the last two courses and she passed the Advanced Open Water course on her birthday. The next day, when she was officially 12, Mia finished the Rescue Diver course.
That was not getting along without difficulties. Mia did three dives in one day, including one deep dive down to 17.5 meters and she had to made her night dive. The hardest part of the course was showing that she could raise an injured grow-up diver to the surface and take the steps needed to help restart their breath.
Mia says she feels proud to have become a Master Scuba Diver. But she doesn’t plan to stop there. She’s interested in getting more training as a diver. In the future, she hopes to become a marine (海的) biologist.
4. What made Mia’s mother take the same diving courses?
A. Improving her own diving skills.
B. Setting a good example for Mia.
C. Watching over Mia’s training process.
D. Being Mia’s diving partner as required.
5. Why was Mia unable to become a Master Scuba Diver according to paragraph 3?
A. She couldn’t see far in the sea.
B. She didn’t have a companion.
C. She didn’t finish the dives that were needed.
D. She was too young to attend related courses.
6. What challenged Mia most about the Rescue Diver course?
A. Diving deep to 17.5 meters.
B. Finishing three dives one day.
C. Performing first aid on adults.
D. Making night diving by herself.
7. Which of the following can best describe Mia?
A. Tough and strong-willed.
B. Determined and open-minded.
C Serious and easy-going.
D. Curious and warm-hearted.
【答案】4. D 5. D 6. C 7. A

【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“It’s a rule that when one is diving, they should always have a companion — a second person working with them when diving. Mia’s mother decided to take all the courses Mia was taking to be her companion. (潜水时必须有同伴——这是规则。Mia的母亲决定学习Mia参加的所有课程,以便成为她的同伴)”可知,Mia的母亲学习相同的潜水课程是为了满足潜水时必须有同伴的要求,成为Mia的潜水伙伴。故选D项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“Mia completed 78 dives — far more than the 50 needed to become a Master Scuba Diver. But Mia had to wait for her last two courses—Advanced Open Water Diver and Rescue Diver. That’s because one has to be at least 12 years old to earn these certificates. (米娅完成了78次潜水——远超过成为潜水大师所需的50次。但米娅不得不等待她的最后两门课程:高级开放水域潜水员和救援潜水员课程。这是因为要获得这些证书,必须至少年满12岁)”可知,Mia无法立即成为Master Scuba Diver的原因是年龄不足,无法参加相关课程。故选D项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段“The hardest part of the course was showing that she could raise an injured grow-up diver to the surface and take the steps needed to help restart their breath. (课程中最难的部分是证明她能够将一名受伤的成年潜水员救出水面,并采取必要措施帮助其恢复呼吸)”可知,对Mia来说最大的挑战是对成年人实施急救。故选C项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Once Mia came of age, she got serious. (一旦米娅到了法定年龄,她便认真对待此事)”以及最后一段“But she doesn’t plan to stop there. She’s interested in getting more training as a diver. (但她并未打算就此止步,她对接受更多潜水训练抱有兴趣)”等以及结合全文内容可知,从Mia从小立志潜水、克服寒冷海水和能见度低的困难、超额完成潜水次数、在年龄限制下坚持等待并完成高难度课程等描述,可以看出她是一个意志坚强且坚韧不拔的人。故选A项。
C
Britain was once covered with rainforests, known as Celtic rainforests or Atlantic woodland. The temperate (温带的) rainforests only occur in places close to the sea with high rainfall, high humidity (湿度) and low variations in temperature and full of plants and animals. The Celtic rainforests used to spread out all across the wetter areas of the country’s west. But over the centuries the ancient woodlands were later cleared and changed into grasslands for sheep and cattle. By the start of the 20th century, Britain had become the least-wooded country in Europe, with only small parts remaining in western coastal rainforest areas.
There’s a new rainforest coming back to Britain right now. A movement is underway across Britain to recover these forgotten ecosystems. And in Devon, the first step towards achieving that has just been completed. With the help of over 100 local volunteers, more than 2,500 native trees have been planted at Devon Wildlife Trust’s Bowden Pillars site, not far from the town of Totnes. It’s hoped that another 4,500 oak, rowan, alder, hazel, birch, willow and holly trees will be planted by the end of this winter and over the coming decades, and that they’ll grow to form a thriving (欣欣向荣的) temperate rainforest.
The recovery programme, led by The Wildlife Trusts, is happening across other parts of the country, including Cornwall and Pembrokeshire and has been boosted by a significant £38 million of funding from an insurance company.
Claire Inglis, a nature reserve officer at Devon Wildlife Trust, said, “The full grown temperate rainforest will take several decades to become established, but the advantages for nature will be much swifter. The mix of young trees planted among grasslands and hedges (树篱), along with our promise not to use chemicals, will be better for local butterflies and bees, along with local birds such as yellowhammers and barn owls. It will be fascinating to see how it develops.”
8 What was mainly responsible for Britain’s lost Celtic rainforest in the past?
A. Low temperature. B. Animal farming.
C. Plant variation. D. High humidity.
9. What can we say about the movement across Britain?
A. It’s worrying. B. It’s promising.
C. It’s unrealistic. D. It’s uncontrollable.
10. What does the underlined word “swifter” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Further. B. More unlikely.
C. Quicker. D. More costly.
11. Which can be the best title for the text?
A. A Story of Destruction About Britain’s Lost Rainforests
B. The Challenges of Reviving Celtic Rainforests in Britain
C. A Nationwide Effort to Revive Lost Rainforests in Britain
D. The Truth of the Disappearance of Britain’s Celtic Rainforests
【答案】8. B 9. B 10. C 11. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,主要讲述了英国曾经覆盖着被称为凯尔特雨林或大西洋林地的热带雨林,后来因放牧被砍伐,如今英国正开展一项全国性的运动来恢复这些被遗忘的生态系统,并介绍了该运动的进展、资金支持及带来的好处等。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“But over the centuries the ancient woodlands were later cleared and changed into grasslands for sheep and cattle. (但几个世纪以来,这些古老林地后来被清理并变成了放牧牛羊的草地)”可知,英国凯尔特雨林消失的主要原因是畜牧业的发展。故选B项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“A movement is underway across Britain to recover these forgotten ecosystems. (一场恢复这些被遗忘的生态系统的运动正在英国各地展开)”以及后文提到的植树计划和资金支持,可以看出这一运动充满希望。故选B项。
【10题详解】
词义猜测题。根据最后一段“The full grown temperate rainforest will take several decades to become established, but the advantages for nature will be much swifter. (成熟的温带雨林需要几十年的时间才能形成,但是对自然的好处会更swifter)”,由but可知,前后形成转折,前面说需要的时间长,后面应表示好处来得快,所以“swifter”意为“更快的”。故选C项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“The Celtic rainforests used to spread out all across the wetter areas of the country’s west. But over the centuries the ancient woodlands were later cleared and changed into grasslands for sheep and cattle. (凯尔特雨林曾一度遍布英国西部较为湿润的地区。但在过去的几个世纪里,这些古老的林地逐渐被砍伐清理,转而变成了用于放牧牛羊的牧场)”以及结合全文内容可知,文章开篇提到英国凯尔特雨林的消失,随后重点介绍了当前全国范围内恢复雨林的努力,包括植树计划、资金支持以及预期的生态效益,因此,最佳标题应涵盖“恢复雨林”这一核心内容。故选C项。
D
In 2020, scientists claimed to have found a sign of life on Venus (金星): a smelly gas called phosphine that’s made by tiny living things on Earth. The claim was quickly stirring up disagreement. Now, another smelly gas is making waves in the search for alien (外星的) life — now turning to a planet beyond our solar system. Researchers announced on April 16 that they had used data from the James Webb Space Telescope (JWST) to discover a gas called dimethyl sulfide (DMS) in the atmosphere of a distant planet called K2-18b. On Earth, DMS is mostly made by tiny ocean plants. On other planets, it could be what’s called a biosignature (生命印记) .
The University of Cambridge, which hosts several of the researchers involved in the discovery, was quick to promote the finding as the strongest sign of biological activity outside the solar system. Some media agents followed suit to publicize the DMS as a likely sign of life.
But scientists not involved in the discovery aren’t as overjoyed. For Clara Sousa-Silva, an astrochemist at Bard College who has weathered the storm of the Venus biosignature debate in 2020, she now watches history repeat itself. “The situation is disappointingly familiar. We did not learn enough from the ‘phosphine on Venus’ event,” she said.
Those scientists use JWST to discover gases in K2-18b’s atmosphere by analyzing how starlight changes as it passes through K2-18b’s atmosphere. Each gas leaves unique marks in the light, which appear as squiggly lines on special graphs. They compared these lines to 20 different molecules (分子). Sousa-Silva pointed most of the molecules aren’t structurally similar to DMS.
National Geographic contacted some experts to find out what to make of this new biosignature claim. Their views are represented: It’s an interesting discovery, perhaps even an important step on the way to discovering life on other planets one day. They stressed on “one day”.
12. Why did the researchers consider DMS as a sign of life?
A. It is mostly made up of phosphine.
B. It is just as smelly as phosphine on Venus.
C. It was found on K2-18b that has living things.
D. It is mainly produced by living things on Earth.
13. What is Clara Sousa-Silva’s attitude to the new biosignature claim?
A. Doubtful. B. Excited. C. Confused. D. Uncaring.
14. How did scientists identify DMS in K2-18b’s atmosphere?
A. By observing ocean plants on K2-18b.
B. By directly collecting gas from K2-18b.
C. By studying starlight passing through its atmosphere.
D. By matching it with 20 molecules of similar structure.
15. What can be inferred from the experts’views in the last paragraph?
A. Findings from JWST’s are quite disappointing.
B. More evidence is needed to confirm the claim.
C. They believe that life surely exists on K2-18b.
D. They confirm the discovery a big achievement.
【答案】12. D 13. A 14. C 15. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章讲述科学家在系外行星K2-18b的大气中,发现了一种气体——dimethyl sulfide (DMS),认为这可能是外星生命存在的迹象。但科学界对此争议很大。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“On Earth, DMS is mostly made by tiny ocean plants. On other planets, it could be what’s called a biosignature (生命印记) .(在地球上,DMS主要是由微小的海洋植物产生的。在其他星球上,这可能是所谓的生物特征)”可知,DMS在地球上主要由海洋微生物产生,因此研究人员将其视为潜在的生命迹象。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“For Clara Sousa-Silva, an astrochemist at Bard College who has weathered the storm of the Venus biosignature debate in 2020, she now watches history repeat itself. “The situation is disappointingly familiar. We did not learn enough from the ‘phosphine on Venus’ event,” she said.(巴德学院(Bard College)的天体化学家克拉拉·索萨-席尔瓦(Clara Sousa-Silva)经受住了2020年金星生物特征辩论的风暴,她现在看着历史重演。“这种情况令人失望地熟悉。我们没有从‘金星上的磷化氢’事件中学到足够的东西,”她说)”推知,她对这一新发现持怀疑态度。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Those scientists use JWST to discover gases in K2-18b’s atmosphere by analyzing how starlight changes as it passes through K2-18b’s atmosphere.(这些科学家利用JWST通过分析星光穿过K2-18b大气层时的变化来发现K2-18b大气中的气体)”可知,科学家通过分析星光穿过K2-18b大气层时的变化来检测气体。故选C。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段“Their views are represented: It’s an interesting discovery, perhaps even an important step on the way to discovering life on other planets one day. They stressed on “one day”.(他们的观点得到了体现:这是一个有趣的发现,甚至可能是有朝一日在其他星球上发现生命的重要一步。他们强调“有一天”)”推知,目前仍需更多证据来支撑这一发现。故选B。

【36题详解】
考查冠词。句意:5月23日晚,一场山体滑坡袭击了中国南部广西壮族自治区桂林市龙胜县泗水乡三舍村。可数名词landslide在句中表示“一场山体滑坡”,泛指,且landslide发音以辅音音素开头,用不定冠词a修饰。故填a。
【37题详解】

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。
My parents couldn’t afford to have someone watch me at lunchtime. Because I was scared to be alone at home, I would eat quickly and run back to hide in an outside stairwell in the schoolyard to wait until afternoon classes started.
One day, Mrs. Brennan found me while getting her sweater back that had fallen out of a window. That afternoon, she told my mom that I could stay at school every lunchtime to help with some small chores (杂事), instead of going home for lunch. She would provide a meal for me as “payment”. Mom was grateful that I’d be under adult supervision (监管).
My duties started the next afternoon. When the class ended, I would race up to Mrs. Brennan’s room and get a lunch box packed with delicious food. As we ate, Mrs. Brennan listened intently to my trivial (琐碎的) childish chatter, drawing me out of my shy shell with her genuine interest. After lunch, I would clean the blackboard, chalk tray and the erasers in preparation for afternoon class.
That year, we were introduced to creative writing. Mrs. Brennan noticed my gift for writing and supplied me with extra notebooks to write down my thoughts and stories. Over time, she encouraged me to try poetry. While I was creating my poems, time seemed to stop. It was only when I saw Mrs. Brennan tidy up the blackboard that I realized I had forgotten my duties. Instead of criticizing (指责) me, she told me softly, “It was never about the chores, Mary, but about making you feel safe.”
In fifth grade, Mom made arrangements to send me elsewhere for lunch, but I continued to see Mrs. Brennan and share my creative writing with her every chance I could, never tiring of her praise and warm hugs.
On the last day of the term, she hugged me as always, but her hug was tighter and longer, saying goodbye and wishing me a good holiday.
注意:

Summer vacation going by fast, I rushed to school, eager to see Mrs. Brennan again.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The next day, I decided to write a letter to Mrs. Brennan who was in hospital in another city.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Summer vacation going by fast, I rushed to school, eager to see Mrs. Brennan again. As I entered the schoolyard, I couldn’t wait to run up to her classroom. But when I peeked inside, her desk was empty. A strange feeling rose in my chest. I turned to a passing teacher and asked where she was. The teacher gently told me that Mrs. Brennan had fallen ill during the summer and was now in a hospital in another city. I stood there, stunned. That afternoon, I sat alone on the old stairwell, holding one of the notebooks she had given me. Without her warm smile, school felt lonely again.
The next day, I decided to write a letter to Mrs. Brennan who was in hospital in another city. I wrote about how much she meant to me and how she helped me find my voice through writing. I thanked her for making me feel safe and for seeing something in me I hadn’t seen myself. I told her I still wrote poems and cleaned the blackboard just like before. Weeks later, I got a reply. She wrote, “You were always worth it.” Those words stayed with me forever.
