Max reads more than anyone he knows. He loves to read during all of his free time. His friends laugh at him because he would rather read than play video games, but his parents and his teachers are proud of him. They say reading is important, and it will help him learn about the world around him. They also tell him it is a good habit.
One day Max was reading a magazine article about volcanoes (火山). He told his friends all about volcanoes and what causes them to erupt. The very next week, the teacher started a science project about volcanoes. Guess who everyone wanted in their project group! Max’s friends weren’t laughing at him anymore.
Max ended up being in a group with Liz, Anna and Josh. The work was to create a poster board with information about volcanoes and to build a volcano model. Max made copies of the magazine article about volcanoes so his project partners could read about them too. They also went to the library to look for more information about volcanoes.
The group met at Anna’s house that night to organize the information and decide what they wanted to put on the poster board. They all asked Max what he thought was most important. Then they decided together to do what Max said. The next night they met at Josh’s house to build their volcano. They used cardboard and modeling clay. First they made a volcano shape with the cardboard, and then they covered the shape in brown and red clay.
The volcano looked great. Max, Liz, Anna and Josh were very proud of their hard work. When they turned in their project, their teacher was proud too. Thanks to Max’s good habit they came an A+ on both parts of the project.

Teenagers who spend more time on after-school activities and less than two hours of screen time after school are more mentally healthy, according to a study published in the journal Preventive Medicine.
The study used information collected from more than 28,000 seventh-grade Canadian students between 2014 and 2018. The students first answered questions about their usage of screen time after school, including how much time they spent watching TV or something else. Then, students reported how many days they had taken part in after-school activities such as sports or arts programmes. After that, researchers asked students to describe their state of mind. For example, when given a statement such as “I start most days thinking that I will have a good day”, they could choose to what level they agreed with it on a scale (等级).
Researchers said in the study some of the results were expected. Students with no after-school activities usually had high levels of screen time, for example. And they expected girls would score higher on negative indicators (消极指标)of mental health. as earlier research had found that they tended to have higher levels of anxiety compared to boys.
What was noteworthy, researchers say, is that even among students who took part in after-school activities, 46% still went beyond the recommended screen time of two hours. At the same time, 67% of students who didn’t take part in after-school activities also had more than two hours of screen time. Together, this suggests high screen time among teenagers generally.
“The findings suggest that after-school activities are valuable for the happy growing of teenagers,” the study said. “While past studies have proved the importance of after-school activities for social and academic development, the present study shows their importance for good mental health results.”
8 Which of the following came last when students took part in the new study?
A. Talking about their lifestyles.
B. Introducing their after-school activities.
C. Reporting their mental states on a scale.
D. Answering questions about screen time use.
9. What do the researchers find about teenage girls?
A. They often have higher levels of satisfaction.
B. Few of them take part in after-school activities.
C. Anxiety has become a serious problem among them.
D. Too much screen time may be more harmful to them.
10. What does the author want to show by using the numbers in paragraph 4?
A. Earlier findings about screen time are wrong.
B. High screen time is common among teenagers.
C. No after-school activities mean no screen time.
D. Screens attract teenagers more than after-school activities do.
11. Why are after-school activities so important according to the new study?
A. They are good for teenagers’ physical health.
B. They help to improve teenagers’ mental health.
C. They encourage teenagers’ social development.
D. They allow teenagers to become better learners.
【答案】8. C 9. D 10. B 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要讲述一项研究结果:放学后花更多的时间在课外活动上并且看电子屏幕的时间少于2个小时的学生的心理更加健康。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“After that, researchers asked students to describe their state of mind. For example, when given a statement such as “I start most days thinking that I will have a good day”, they could choose to what level they agreed with it on a scale.(之后,研究人员让学生描述自己的心理状态。例如,当看到 “我开始新的一天时,大多会觉得这会是愉快的一天”这类表述时,学生可以在一个等级量表上选择自己对该表述的认同程度)”可知,学生们用量表报告他们的精神状态是最后一步。故选C。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Students with no after-school activities usually had high levels of screen time, for example. And they expected girls would score higher on negative indicators of mental health. as earlier research had found that they tended to have higher levels of anxiety compared to boys.(比如,没有课后活动的学生们经常会有更长的时间面对屏幕。并且他们预料到女孩子们在心理健康的消极指标上得分更高,正如以前的研究发现的那样,相对比男孩来说,她们趋向于更加的焦虑)”可知,长时间面对屏幕对女孩子们的心理健康有更大的影响。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“Together, this suggests high screen time among teenagers generally.(总之,这表明长时间面对屏幕在青少年之间是很常见的)”可知,在第四段作者用那些数字是为了表明长时间面对电子屏幕的情况在青少年之间是很常见的。故选B。
【11题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“While past studies have proved the importance of after-school activities for social and academic development, the present study shows their importance for good mental health results.(尽管以前的研究已经证明课后活动对社会和学术发展的重要性,而现在的研究强调了它们对于好的心理健康结果的重要性)”可知,新的研究表明,课后活动对提高青少年的心理健康很重要。故选B。
D
The importance of working towards sustainable (可持续的)development makes scientists face a challenge in terms of determining the most effective ways to achieve desired outcomes across health, education, poverty, energy, the environment, and many other aspects of well-being, as well as how working towards some of these goals might affect the achievement of others. A study published in the journal Nature Sustainability recently brings together several different connections particularly between education and climate change and evaluates them together.
“We examined how changes in educational attainment affect population growth, economic growth, greenhouse gas emissions (排放)and vulnerability (脆弱性)to climate change impacts — at the same time. Previous studies have looked at the role of education in vulnerability to climate change impacts and its relationship to population increase, and also separately to economic growth. Our study, however, brings these different effects together in a single analysis,” explains Shonali Pachauri, a study co-author.
The team wanted to address two main questions through their research: Firstly, they wanted to determine the net effect of increased educational attainment on the emissions that drive global warming greatly. Secondly, they asked how much less vulnerable people in less developed countries might be if educational attainment is improved.
The findings indicate that increasing the level of educational attainment of a population induces an improvement in vulnerability—in other words, populations are significantly less vulnerable to climate change if efforts are made to improve their level of education.
According to the researchers, one of the most surprising results of the study is that increasing educational attainment tends to lead to a small increase in emissions. A second unexpected finding is the size of the positive effect of education on vulnerability. If optimistic increases in educational attainment can be achieved in developing countries in the future, the reduction in vulnerability, as measured by the Human Development Index, can be quite large.
12. What is special about the recent study compared to previous ones?
A. It stresses the effect of climate change.
B. It focuses on economic development.
C. It analyzes the role of education separately.
D. It studies broad effects of education at once.
13. What does the underlined word “induces” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Proves. B. Discourages. C. Results from. D. Leads to.
14. What can we expect as education levels rise according to the recent study?
A. Smaller poor populations. B. An increase in global warming.
C. Faster economic development. D. A slowdown in population growth.
15. Why does the author write the text?
A. To show the importance of education. B. To discuss ways to improve education levels.
C. To introduce a study on effects of education. D. To call on people to protect the environment.
【答案】12. D 13. D 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。本文介绍了一项发表在《自然・可持续性》期刊上研究,该研究聚焦教育与气候变化的关联,同时分析教育水平提升对人口增长、经济增长、温室气体排放及气候变化影响脆弱性的多方面作用,并呈现了相关研究发现。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“We examined how changes in educational attainment affect population growth, economic growth, greenhouse gas emissions (排放) and vulnerability (脆弱性) to climate change impacts — at the same time. Previous studies have looked at the role of education in vulnerability to climate change impacts and its relationship to population increase, and also separately to economic growth. Our study, however, brings these different effects together in a single analysis(我们同时研究了教育水平的变化如何影响人口增长、经济增长、温室气体排放以及对气候变化影响的脆弱性。以往的研究分别探讨了教育在对气候变化影响的脆弱性方面的作用、教育与人口增长的关系,也单独研究了教育与经济增长的关系。然而,我们的研究将这些不同的影响整合到了一项单一的分析中)”可知,该研究的特别之处在于同时研究教育的广泛影响,而以往研究是分开探讨的。故选D。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第四段中“The findings indicate that increasing the level of educational attainment of a population induces an improvement in vulnerability—in other words, populations are significantly less vulnerable to climate change if efforts are made to improve their level of education”(研究结果表明,提高人口的教育水平会induces脆弱性的改善 —— 换句话说,如果努力提高人口的教育水平,他们对气候变化的脆弱性会显著降低)”可知,in other words后的内容是对前文的解释,即教育水平提高会“导致”脆弱性的改善。故猜测划线词与lead to“导致”意思相符。故选D。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第五段中“According to the researchers, one of the most surprising results of the study is that increasing educational attainment tends to lead to a small increase in emissions(研究人员表示,该研究最令人惊讶的结果之一是:教育水平的提高往往会导致排放量的小幅增加)”并结合常识可知,排放量增加会加剧全球变暖。由此可知,教育水平提高可能会导致全球变暖加剧。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。通读全文可知,第一段引出一项发表在《自然・可持续性》期刊上、聚焦教育与气候变化关联的研究;第二段介绍该研究与以往研究的区别;第三段说明研究旨在解决的两个问题;第四、五段呈现研究发现。整体围绕“一项关于教育影响的研究”展开,目的是介绍该研究。故选C。

考查介词。句意:从初中到高中的转变对所有青少年来说都是压力很大的。此处是固定搭配:from...to...意为“从……到……”。故填to。
【37题详解】
考查名词。句意:其中一些期望会给有学习和思维差异的孩子带来特殊的困难。分析句子结构可知,空前是介词,所以空处应填名词作宾语,kid意为“孩子”为可数名词,根据句意可知,用复数形式。故填kids。
【38题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:在高中,保持足够的条理性来完成每件事可能是一件很困难的事情。此处是固定搭配:get sth. done意为“完成某事、让某事被做”,用过去分词done表被动。故填done。

【44题详解】
考查副词。句意:高中生活同样令人兴奋和充满挑战,但我们的青少年可以通过与老师和父母保持联系来克服挑战并取得成功。分析句子结构可知,空处修饰空后的形容词短语exciting and challenging,应该用副词equally作状语。故填equally。

【答案】Dear Alex,
Time flies! It’s already three weeks since I started senior high. Our new campus is really impressive — there’s a big playground where we play basketball after class, and the classrooms are bright with new desks. I feel excited every time I walk around.
My favorite subject is English. The teacher often shares interesting stories from English-speaking countries, and we do group discussions which make the class lively. I’ve learned a lot of new words too.
But I’m having a challenge with physics. Some concepts are hard to understand, and I’m still trying to keep up with the lessons. I plan to ask the teacher for help this week.
How about your school life? I’m looking forward to your reply.
Best regards,
Li Hua

47. 读后续写
It was the last day of school, and the long year spent in 4th grade finally came to the end. It had rained heavily all day, and by the afternoon it was cold. The sun had dipped below the horizon (地平线)by the time I got home, now totally wet and cold. I hurriedly rushed into my room and slipped into some dry clothes. Once I was changed, I joined my mother in the kitchen. She had already lit the fire to prepare supper.
The wood soon caught fire, and the warmth spread around the room. I tried to get closer to the fire as my body was shivering from the intense cold. My mother gently rubbed my back and said, “I am proud of you, my little hero,” as I told her how my schoolwork performance had improved, I remember her bright smile and the joy in her eyes.
My mother started humming the lyrics to one of my favorite songs, “Heal the World” by Michael Jackson. I immediately began to sing the words in time with my mother. We would always sing songs like this together. My mother knew I loved singing. She always felt sorry that she couldn't afford to pay for music classes.
Life was not easy for us during that period. I was living with my mother after she separated from my dad, which had happened the year before when I was in 3rd grade. Sometimes the nights were boring and tiresome as we did not have any television and our old radio would often run out of batteries. However, I enjoyed the songs that my mother and I sang together. As my mother hummed the words and I sang along, I dreamt of a world where performing on stage was the pillar (支柱)of my life. The turning point of my childhood came after the end of my 4th grade. Our neighbor moved away and left his old piano to us.
My mother was so happy that she could teach me singing at home with this piano.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The next term, I became the lead singer of the school chorus, which was one step closer to my dream of becoming a singer and inspiring people with my voice.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 My mother was so happy that she could teach me singing at home with this piano. She hugged me tightly and told me the piano was a gift from heaven, giving me a chance to pursue my dream of singing. Though we did not have money for lessons, my mother said she would teach me all she could remember from her own music lessons as a girl. Every evening after supper, we would sit together at the piano as my mother showed me simple scales and melodies. I practised the songs we had always sung together, this time with the piano accompaniment. Making music with my mother quickly became the highlight of my days, filling our small home with joy and hope.
The next term, I became the lead singer of the school chorus, which was one step closer to my dream of becoming a singer and inspiring people with my voice. I was thrilled to have the opportunity to perform in front of others and to share my love of music. My mother’s unwavering support and encouragement gave me the confidence to pursue my dreams despite any obstacles that might come my way. As I stood on stage, singing my heart out, I knew that my mother was there with me in spirit, cheering me on every step of the way. It was a moment I would never forget, and it inspired me to work even harder toward my goal of becoming a professional singer.

【解析】
【导语】故事以人物为线索展开,讲述四年级最后一天,作者冒雨回家又冷又湿,到厨房找妈妈。妈妈生火做饭,夸作者功课进步,还和她一起唱喜欢的歌。那时作者和妈妈生活不易,而邻居留下的旧钢琴成了她童年的转折点。
【48题详解】
考查推理判断。根据“Mom started humming the lyrics of my favorite song and I joined her.(妈妈开始哼唱我最喜欢的那首歌的歌词,我也跟着哼唱起来)”推测,作者的情绪由之前的紧张变为平静且愉快(calm and delighted)。故选F。
【49题详解】
考查推理判断。根据原文第四段“Our neighbor moved away and left his old piano to us.(我们的邻居搬走了,把他的旧钢琴留给我们)”可知,情节线应是邻居留下旧钢琴。B项“One day, our neighbor moved away and left his old piano to us.(一天,我们的邻居搬走了,把他的旧钢琴留给了我们)”符合故事发展顺序。故选B。
【50题详解】
考查推理判断。有了钢琴,作者可以用钢琴练习,因此感到开心和兴奋(excited and cheerful)。故选D。
【51题详解】
考查推理判断。结合下文提到成为学校合唱团的领唱(I became the lead singer of the school chorus.)可知,作者在歌唱这方面有了很大进步。由此推测,妈妈教作者弹钢琴和唱歌。A项“My mom and I spent every evening together, with her teaching me to play the piano and sing.(我和妈妈每天晚上都在一起,她教我弹钢琴和唱歌)”符合故事发展顺序。故选A。
【52题详解】
考查推理判断。此处为故事的结束,应对整个故事进行升华,例如可能提到梦想实现。C项“With the piano, my dream of inspiring people with my voice and music came true.(有了钢琴,我用我的声音和音乐激励人们的梦想实现了)”符合故事发展顺序。故选C。
【53题详解】
考查推理判断。作者实现了自己用音乐帮助他人的梦想,应是受到鼓舞且充满希望(inspired and hopeful)。故选E。
第三节每小题2分, 满分10分。
请将下列句子翻译成英文。
54. 同样重要的是良好的学习习惯、有用的技能和积极的态度。(汉译英)
_________________________________________________________
【答案】Equally important are good study habits, useful skills, and a positive attitude.
【解析】
【详解】考查短语和时态。陈述事实用一般现在时,表示“同样重要的是”用“Equally important are...”这一全部倒装结构,符合英文表达习惯,强调主语的重要性;“良好的学习习惯”对应“good study habits”,“有用的技能”是“useful skills”,“积极的态度”为“a positive attitude”。故翻译为Equally important are good study habits, useful skills, and a positive attitude.
55. 设定目标能让你生活中有一个重心。(汉译英)
_________________________________________________________
【答案】Setting goals can give you a focus in life.
【解析】
【详解】考查非谓语动词。“设定目标”表达为set goals,此处用其动名词形式作主语,“给某人某物”表达为give sb. sth.,表示“能够”用情态动词can,can后跟give的原因,宾语“生活的重心”表达为a focus a life。故翻译为Setting goals can give you a focus in life.
56. 在你设定目标后,坚持目标并为之努力是很重要的。(汉译英)
_________________________________________________________
【答案】After you set a goal, it is very important to stick to it and work hard for it.
【解析】
【详解】考查从句和固定句型。本句可处理为主从复合句;表示“在……之后”用after引导时间状语从句,从句主语是you,谓语动词“设定”是set,宾语“目标”是a goal;主句中“做某事是……的”用固定句型it be+adj.+to do,“坚持”表达为stick to,用其不定式作主语,“为之努力”表达为work hard for it。句子陈述客观事实,用一般现在时。故翻译为After you set a goal, it is very important to stick to it and work hard for it.
57. 我所有的努力都会有回报!(汉译英)
_________________________________________________________
【答案】All my efforts will pay off!
【解析】
【详解】考查短语和时态。“努力有回报”常用固定搭配“efforts pay off”,“pay off”在此处为不及物动词短语,意为“取得成功、得到回报”,符合“付出终将有收获”的语义;“所有的” 用all修饰“my efforts”,简洁准确;时态用一般将来时,体现对未来结果的信心。故翻译为All my efforts will pay off!
58. 最终你会发现自己成长为一个全面发展的人。 (汉译英)
_________________________________________________________
【答案】Ultimately, you will find yourself growing into a well-rounded person.
【解析】
【详解】考查时态、非谓语动词和短语。句子陈述将来发生的事情,应用一般将来时will do,谓语动词“发现”表达为find,宾语“你自己”表达为yourself,“长成一个全面发展的人”表达为growing into a well-rounded person,grow和宾语yourself之间为主动关系,应用现在分词作宾补。结合其他汉语提示,故翻译为Ultimately, you will find yourself growing into a well-rounded person.

Max reads more than anyone he knows. He loves to read during all of his free time. His friends laugh at him because he would rather read than play video games, but his parents and his teachers are proud of him. They say reading is important, and it will help him learn about the world around him. They also tell him it is a good habit.
One day Max was reading a magazine article about volcanoes (火山). He told his friends all about volcanoes and what causes them to erupt. The very next week, the teacher started a science project about volcanoes. Guess who everyone wanted in their project group! Max’s friends weren’t laughing at him anymore.
Max ended up being in a group with Liz, Anna and Josh. The work was to create a poster board with information about volcanoes and to build a volcano model. Max made copies of the magazine article about volcanoes so his project partners could read about them too. They also went to the library to look for more information about volcanoes.
The group met at Anna’s house that night to organize the information and decide what they wanted to put on the poster board. They all asked Max what he thought was most important. Then they decided together to do what Max said. The next night they met at Josh’s house to build their volcano. They used cardboard and modeling clay. First they made a volcano shape with the cardboard, and then they covered the shape in brown and red clay.
The volcano looked great. Max, Liz, Anna and Josh were very proud of their hard work. When they turned in their project, their teacher was proud too. Thanks to Max’s good habit they came an A+ on both parts of the project.

Teenagers who spend more time on after-school activities and less than two hours of screen time after school are more mentally healthy, according to a study published in the journal Preventive Medicine.
The study used information collected from more than 28,000 seventh-grade Canadian students between 2014 and 2018. The students first answered questions about their usage of screen time after school, including how much time they spent watching TV or something else. Then, students reported how many days they had taken part in after-school activities such as sports or arts programmes. After that, researchers asked students to describe their state of mind. For example, when given a statement such as “I start most days thinking that I will have a good day”, they could choose to what level they agreed with it on a scale (等级).
Researchers said in the study some of the results were expected. Students with no after-school activities usually had high levels of screen time, for example. And they expected girls would score higher on negative indicators (消极指标)of mental health. as earlier research had found that they tended to have higher levels of anxiety compared to boys.
What was noteworthy, researchers say, is that even among students who took part in after-school activities, 46% still went beyond the recommended screen time of two hours. At the same time, 67% of students who didn’t take part in after-school activities also had more than two hours of screen time. Together, this suggests high screen time among teenagers generally.
“The findings suggest that after-school activities are valuable for the happy growing of teenagers,” the study said. “While past studies have proved the importance of after-school activities for social and academic development, the present study shows their importance for good mental health results.”
8. Which of the following came last when students took part in the new study?
A. Talking about their lifestyles.
B. Introducing their after-school activities.
C. Reporting their mental states on a scale.
D. Answering questions about screen time use.
9. What do the researchers find about teenage girls?
A. They often have higher levels of satisfaction.
B. Few of them take part in after-school activities.
C. Anxiety has become a serious problem among them.
D. Too much screen time may be more harmful to them.
10. What does the author want to show by using the numbers in paragraph 4?
A. Earlier findings about screen time are wrong.
B. High screen time is common among teenagers.
C. No after-school activities mean no screen time.
D. Screens attract teenagers more than after-school activities do.
11. Why are after-school activities so important according to the new study?
A. They are good for teenagers’ physical health.
B. They help to improve teenagers’ mental health.
C. They encourage teenagers’ social development.
D. They allow teenagers to become better learners.
D
The importance of working towards sustainable (可持续的)development makes scientists face a challenge in terms of determining the most effective ways to achieve desired outcomes across health, education, poverty, energy, the environment, and many other aspects of well-being, as well as how working towards some of these goals might affect the achievement of others. A study published in the journal Nature Sustainability recently brings together several different connections particularly between education and climate change and evaluates them together.
“We examined how changes in educational attainment affect population growth, economic growth, greenhouse gas emissions (排放)and vulnerability (脆弱性)to climate change impacts — at the same time. Previous studies have looked at the role of education in vulnerability to climate change impacts and its relationship to population increase, and also separately to economic growth. Our study, however, brings these different effects together in a single analysis,” explains Shonali Pachauri, a study co-author.
The team wanted to address two main questions through their research: Firstly, they wanted to determine the net effect of increased educational attainment on the emissions that drive global warming greatly. Secondly, they asked how much less vulnerable people in less developed countries might be if educational attainment is improved.
The findings indicate that increasing the level of educational attainment of a population induces an improvement in vulnerability—in other words, populations are significantly less vulnerable to climate change if efforts are made to improve their level of education.
According to the researchers, one of the most surprising results of the study is that increasing educational attainment tends to lead to a small increase in emissions. A second unexpected finding is the size of the positive effect of education on vulnerability. If optimistic increases in educational attainment can be achieved in developing countries in the future, the reduction in vulnerability, as measured by the Human Development Index, can be quite large.
12. What is special about the recent study compared to previous ones?
A. It stresses the effect of climate change.
B. It focuses on economic development.
C. It analyzes the role of education separately.
D. It studies broad effects of education at once.
13. What does the underlined word “induces” in Paragraph 4 mean?
A. Proves. B. Discourages. C. Results from. D. Leads to.
14. What can we expect as education levels rise according to the recent study?
A. Smaller poor populations. B. An increase in global warming.
C. Faster economic development. D. A slowdown in population growth.
15. Why does the author write the text?
A. To show the importance of education. B. To discuss ways to improve education levels.
C. To introduce a study on effects of education. D. To call on people to protect the environment.

It was the last day of school, and the long year spent in 4th grade finally came to the end. It had rained heavily all day, and by the afternoon it was cold. The sun had dipped below the horizon (地平线)by the time I got home, now totally wet and cold. I hurriedly rushed into my room and slipped into some dry clothes. Once I was changed, I joined my mother in the kitchen. She had already lit the fire to prepare supper.
The wood soon caught fire, and the warmth spread around the room. I tried to get closer to the fire as my body was shivering from the intense cold. My mother gently rubbed my back and said, “I am proud of you, my little hero,” as I told her how my schoolwork performance had improved, I remember her bright smile and the joy in her eyes.
My mother started humming the lyrics to one of my favorite songs, “Heal the World” by Michael Jackson. I immediately began to sing the words in time with my mother. We would always sing songs like this together. My mother knew I loved singing. She always felt sorry that she couldn't afford to pay for music classes.
Life was not easy for us during that period. I was living with my mother after she separated from my dad, which had happened the year before when I was in 3rd grade. Sometimes the nights were boring and tiresome as we did not have any television and our old radio would often run out of batteries. However, I enjoyed the songs that my mother and I sang together. As my mother hummed the words and I sang along, I dreamt of a world where performing on stage was the pillar (支柱)of my life. The turning point of my childhood came after the end of my 4th grade. Our neighbor moved away and left his old piano to us.
My mother was so happy that she could teach me singing at home with this piano.

The next term, I became the lead singer of the school chorus, which was one step closer to my dream of becoming a singer and inspiring people with my voice.
