Hanukkah is an important Jewish holiday. This year, hundreds of people had gathered on Bondi Beach, a popular tourist spot, to celebrate. Around 6:45 in the evening, two men – a father and son – began shooting at the crowd, leaving at least 16 people dead. Over 40 others were injured. The older attacker was killed by police. The younger shooter is in the hospital. Police say they found two bombs nearby. Australia’s government says the shooting was a terrorist attack, and that the men were targeting Jewish people. Worldwide, attacks on Jewish people have increased since the war between Israel and Hamas broke out over two years ago. Australian Prime Minister Anthony Albanese said, “An attack on Jewish Australians is an attack on every Australian.” A man called Ahmed el Ahmed is being celebrated as a hero after he tackled one of the gunmen and took his weapon away. Mr. el Ahmed, who came to Australia from Syria in 2006, was unarmed. The leader of New South Wales, Chris Minns, says Mr. el Ahmed “saved countless lives”. After a terrible shooting in 1996, Australia passed some of the strictest gun laws in the world.

The button sends a text message to emergency dispatchers (调度员), alerts the rest of the school to potential danger, and activates 1,200 pounds of magnetic force to keep the class door shut. It’s one of the measures that Michael Baumann has employed to harden the schools in his district and protect against active shooters since he became supervisor in 2017. He hired four more advisers to improve mental-health services, established a team to monitor potential threats of violence, and spent $14. 4 million installing the emergency-alert system and building ballistic (弹道的) panels into walls that are designed to stop bullets — all aimed at helping students and teachers survive an active shooter. Fear of shootings has turned school security into a booming industry. The market for school security equipment and services reached $2.7 billion in 2017, according to a report by the research firm Omdia. Research shows that the number of deadly shootings at schools has increased since 2012, during a period in which protective measures also expanded. There also isn’t clear evidence that school resource officers (SROs) improve safety. SROs were on the scene in Uvalde and in Parkland before the gunmen entered the schools, but failed to stop those shootings. “When we add metal detectors, observation cameras, increased police presence, active-shooter drills, and we turn schools into this mix of fortresses and prisons. It can have some negative impacts,” says Bryan Warnick, an education professor at Ohio State University who has studied school discipline. Although many school districts invest in security in the hopes of preventing shootings or minimizing casualties, some worry that hardening schools ultimately makes educators responsible for solving the gun violence epidemic. “We ask schools to turn themselves upside down with trainings and new procedures,” Warnick says. It’s a larger societal problem of easy access to firearms, of lack of access to mentalhealth care. 1．Why are so many protective measures taken by Michael Baumann in the schools? A．To prevent active shooters. B．To capture active shooters. C．To monitor active shooters. D．To help students and teachers survive active shooters. 2．What conclusion can we draw from the passage? A．The investment in school security has increased. B．The protective measures help a lot. C．The protective measures aim to catch shooters. D．Schools are responsible for solving the gun violence epidemic. 3．What dose Bryan Warnick think about the protective measures taken in the schools? A．They measures are useless. B．They measures may affect schools negatively. C．They measures have turned schools into a mix of fortresses and prisons. D．They measures only result in the rise of investment in school security. 4．Which is the best title of the passage? A．The Education in Minnesota’s Lakeville Area Schools B．The Ways to Survive Active Shooters in Minnesota’s Lakeville Area Schools C．The Protective Measures in Minnesota’s Lakeville Area Schools D．The Rise of School Security Investment 【长难句分析】 【文章原句】Although many school districts invest in security in the hopes of preventing shootings or minimizing casualties, some worry that hardening schools ultimately makes educators responsible for solving the gun violence epidemic. 【句式分析】 这个句子是一个复合句。Although many school districts invest in security in the hopes of preventing shootings or minimizing casualties是让步状语从句，that hardening schools ultimately makes educators responsible for solving the gun violence epidemic是主句中的宾语从句。 【翻译】尽管许多学区投入安保资金以期预防枪击事件或减少伤亡，但有人担忧，强化校园安全措施最终会使教育工作者承担起解决枪支暴力问题的责任。 Passage2阅读理解 Three young American men were on a crowded train when they encountered a heavily armed terrorist. With little regard for their personal safety, they rushed the terrorist and controlled him. Only some people seem capable of this split-second form of heroism. Why some men rise to the occasion— and others don’t— has been a bit tricky to explain. Psychologists have explored this question through biological and personality psychology. Of course, heroism and courage can appear in many forms, and men and women risk their reputations, health, and social standing to do what they think is right. When it comes to physically risky bravery, people assume that men will take the lead. There are sound biological reasons for this fixed image. One of the most common fears in men is that they’ll be outed as a coward (懦夫), and a man who fails to display physical courage will suffer damage to his reputation in a way that a woman will not. Throughout human history, attaining a position of high status or dominance among one’s peers (同龄人) has been the ticket that needs to get punched for men to attract mates and father children. People tend to have an idea of what heroes are like. When rating the personalities of movie heroes, participants expected them to be more careful and hard-working, open to experience, agreeable, and emotionally stable than the average person! But some studies indicate that people who exhibit heroic behavior score high on personality usually associated with madmen: risk-taking, sensation seeking, coolness under stress, and a tendency to take over in social situations. The study of the relationship between personality and heroism is at an early stage. Psychologists are still at a loss to predict in advance who will heroically step up when needed. Often, the hero is an otherwise ordinary person who finds himself in extraordinary circumstances. Meanwhile, some individuals trained to behave heroically might hesitate during a crisis. Future disasters will cry out for further acts of true heroism. Hopefully, the right mix of circumstances and personalities enable courage to carry the day. 5．How is the topic introduced in the first paragraph? A．By giving an example. B．By presenting a concept. C．By explaining a theory. D．By drawing a conclusion. 6．What do the underlined words “get punched” in paragraph 2 mean? A．Be purchased. B．Be gifted. C．Be obtained. D．Be abandoned. 7．Why is it difficult to predict who will act heroically in a crisis? A．Heroes and ordinary people are always difficult to tell apart. B．Heroism is a phenomenon influenced by numerous factors. C．Unknown circumstances play a crucial role in heroic acts. D．Individual personality is not a reliable indicator of heroism 8．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．How Are Heroes Trained? B．Who Are the True Heroes? C．Why Are Heroes Essential? D．What Makes a Person Heroic? 【词汇积累】 1.encounter v. 遭遇；偶遇 n. 遭遇，偶遇 2.personal adj. 个人的；亲自的；人际的；个别的3.control n. 统治；控制（力）；克制；管理；限制 v. 指挥；控制；限定；限制 4.capable adj. 有能力的；胜任的 5.personality psychology 人格心理学 6.reputation n. 名誉，名声 7.assume v. 假设，认为；承担（责任）；获得（权利）；呈现；假装 8.indicate v. 表明，暗示；指示；象征 9.heroism n. 英雄行为，英勇精神；英雄气概 10.circumstance n. 条件；环境；情况；情形 Passage 3 阅读七选五 （2025·四川省成都市模拟预测） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Nobody prays to have their home broken into or property stolen. 1 According to a recent report making the rounds on the Internet at least one home is burgled every 15 seconds in the United States. So, how do you protect your home and property from these evildoers? First of all, plant security cameras in plain sight. 2 Having a camera in plain sight will instantly prevent criminals from attempting any bad activity they may have in mind. Besides, it sends a message to criminals that there are probably some other security measures in place. Having security cameras in open places leaves room for tampering (做手脚). Professional thieves and burglars may tamper with the camera or even try to avoid the line of coverage of the camera while carrying out their operation. This is why it makes sense to have a second line of defense—a hidden camera. 3 Again, the wireless camera referenced above works here, too. Whether you’re new in an area or not, it’s advisable to be friends—or at least be on good terms—with your neighbors. This helps to keep an extra eye of protection on your house, especially when you’re not around. In case of a break-in attempt, your neighbors will most likely be the first to know someone is attempting to break into your property. 4 Finally, make sure every single door in your house has up-to-date, durable frames and protective hinges (铰链). 5 But beyond that, the kind of effort it would take to break such doors down will surely create some noise, which will likely alert your neighbors there’s been a break-in. A．This idea makes sense for some reasons. B．But actually these things happen every day. C．Home security is a term that involves multiple aspects. D．They will contact the police or try to scare the burglar off. E．It will reveal the criminals’ identities in case of a break-in. F．Gone are the days of the complicated home security systems. G．On the surface, this will stop criminals stealing into your property. Passage 4 完形填空 One day in March 2014, Caitlin Shetterly boarded a 1 home from the WestCoast to Maine.

The market for school security equipment and services reached $2.7 billion in 2017, according to a report by the research firm Omdia. Research shows that the number of deadly shootings at schools has increased since 2012, during a period in which protective measures also expanded. There also isn’t clear evidence that school resource officers (SROs) improve safety. SROs were on the scene in Uvalde and in Parkland before the gunmen entered the schools, but failed to stop those shootings. “When we add metal detectors, observation cameras, increased police presence, active-shooter drills, and we turn schools into this mix of fortresses and prisons. It can have some negative impacts,” says Bryan Warnick, an education professor at Ohio State University who has studied school discipline. Although many school districts invest in security in the hopes of preventing shootings or minimizing casualties, some worry that hardening schools ultimately makes educators responsible for solving the gun violence epidemic. “We ask schools to turn themselves upside down with trainings and new procedures,” Warnick says. It’s a larger societal problem of easy access to firearms, of lack of access to mentalhealth care. 1．Why are so many protective measures taken by Michael Baumann in the schools? A．To prevent active shooters. B．To capture active shooters. C．To monitor active shooters. D．To help students and teachers survive active shooters. 2．What conclusion can we draw from the passage? A．The investment in school security has increased. B．The protective measures help a lot. C．The protective measures aim to catch shooters. D．Schools are responsible for solving the gun violence epidemic. 3．What dose Bryan Warnick think about the protective measures taken in the schools? A．They measures are useless. B．They measures may affect schools negatively. C．They measures have turned schools into a mix of fortresses and prisons. D．They measures only result in the rise of investment in school security. 4．Which is the best title of the passage? A．The Education in Minnesota’s Lakeville Area Schools B．The Ways to Survive Active Shooters in Minnesota’s Lakeville Area Schools C．The Protective Measures in Minnesota’s Lakeville Area Schools D．The Rise of School Security Investment 【答案】1．D 2．A 3．B 4．C 【解析】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章围绕明尼苏达州莱克维尔地区学校采取的一系列校园安全防护措施展开，报道了相关措施的内容、背景及引发的讨论。 1．细节理解题。根据第二段“He hired four more advisers to improve mental-health services, established a team to monitor potential threats of violence, and spent $14. 4 million installing the emergency-alert system and building ballistic (弹道的) panels into walls that are designed to stop bullets—all aimed at helping students and teachers survive an active shooter.(他又聘请了四名顾问来改善心理健康服务，成立了一个小组来监测潜在的暴力威胁，并花费1440万美元安装了紧急警报系统，并在墙上安装了防弹板，这些措施都是为了帮助学生和教师在枪击事件中生存下来。)”可知，Michael Baumann在学校里采取了保护措施是为了帮助学生和教师在枪击事件中存活下来。故选D。 2．推理判断题。根据第三段“Fear of shootings has turned school security into a booming industry. The market for school security equipment and services reached $2.7 billion in 2017, according to a report by the research firm Omdia.(对枪击事件的恐惧使学校安全成为一个蓬勃发展的行业。根据研究公司Omdia的一份报告，2017年学校安全设备和服务市场规模达到27亿美元。)”可知，对学校安全的投资增加了。故选A。 3．推理判断题。根据第六段“‘When we add metal detectors, observation cameras, increased police presence, active-shooter drills, and we turn schools into this mix of fortresses and prisons. It can have some negative impacts,’ says Bryan Warnick, an education professor at Ohio State University who has studied school discipline.(‘当我们增加金属探测器、监控摄像头、增加警察部署、进行枪击事件演练，并且把学校变成堡垒和监狱的混合体时。这可能会产生一些负面影响，’ 俄亥俄州立大学研究学校纪律的教育学教授布莱恩・沃尼克说。)”可知，布莱恩・沃尼克认为学校采取的保护性措施可能会对学校产生负面影响。故选B。 4．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要讲述了明尼苏达州莱克维尔地区学校采取的各种保护措施，包括安装紧急警报系统、增加心理健康服务等，以及对这些措施的讨论。所以C项“The Protective Measures in Minnesota’s Lakeville Area Schools(明尼苏达州莱克维尔地区学校的保护措施)”能够概括文章主旨，适合作为本文最佳标题。故选C。 【长难句分析】 【文章原句】Although many school districts invest in security in the hopes of preventing shootings or minimizing casualties, some worry that hardening schools ultimately makes educators responsible for solving the gun violence epidemic. 【句式分析】 这个句子是一个复合句。Although many school districts invest in security in the hopes of preventing shootings or minimizing casualties是让步状语从句，that hardening schools ultimately makes educators responsible for solving the gun violence epidemic是主句中的宾语从句。 【翻译】尽管许多学区投入安保资金以期预防枪击事件或减少伤亡，但有人担忧，强化校园安全措施最终会使教育工作者承担起解决枪支暴力问题的责任。 Passage2阅读理解 Three young American men were on a crowded train when they encountered a heavily armed terrorist. With little regard for their personal safety, they rushed the terrorist and controlled him. Only some people seem capable of this split-second form of heroism. Why some men rise to the occasion— and others don’t— has been a bit tricky to explain. Psychologists have explored this question through biological and personality psychology. Of course, heroism and courage can appear in many forms, and men and women risk their reputations, health, and social standing to do what they think is right. When it comes to physically risky bravery, people assume that men will take the lead. There are sound biological reasons for this fixed image. One of the most common fears in men is that they’ll be outed as a coward (懦夫), and a man who fails to display physical courage will suffer damage to his reputation in a way that a woman will not. Throughout human history, attaining a position of high status or dominance among one’s peers (同龄人) has been the ticket that needs to get punched for men to attract mates and father children. People tend to have an idea of what heroes are like. When rating the personalities of movie heroes, participants expected them to be more careful and hard-working, open to experience, agreeable, and emotionally stable than the average person! But some studies indicate that people who exhibit heroic behavior score high on personality usually associated with madmen: risk-taking, sensation seeking, coolness under stress, and a tendency to take over in social situations. The study of the relationship between personality and heroism is at an early stage. Psychologists are still at a loss to predict in advance who will heroically step up when needed. Often, the hero is an otherwise ordinary person who finds himself in extraordinary circumstances. Meanwhile, some individuals trained to behave heroically might hesitate during a crisis. Future disasters will cry out for further acts of true heroism. Hopefully, the right mix of circumstances and personalities enable courage to carry the day. 5．How is the topic introduced in the first paragraph? A．By giving an example. B．By presenting a concept. C．By explaining a theory. D．By drawing a conclusion. 6．What do the underlined words “get punched” in paragraph 2 mean? A．Be purchased. B．Be gifted. C．Be obtained. D．Be abandoned. 7．Why is it difficult to predict who will act heroically in a crisis? A．Heroes and ordinary people are always difficult to tell apart. B．Heroism is a phenomenon influenced by numerous factors. C．Unknown circumstances play a crucial role in heroic acts. D．Individual personality is not a reliable indicator of heroism 8．Which of the following is the best title for the text? A．How Are Heroes Trained? B．Who Are the True Heroes? C．Why Are Heroes Essential? D．What Makes a Person Heroic? 【答案】5．A 6．C 7．B 8．D 【解析】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要围绕“为什么有些人在关键时刻能展现出英勇行为，而有些人却不能”这一主题进行论述，探讨了英勇行为的多种表现形式、生物学原因、与个性的关系以及研究的现状和未来展望。 5．推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Three young American men were on a crowded train when they encountered a heavily armed terrorist. With little regard for their personal safety, they rushed the terrorist and controlled him. Only some people seem capable of this split- second form of heroism. Why some men rise to the occasion— and others don’t— has been a bit tricky to explain.(三名年轻的美国男子在一列拥挤的火车上遇到了一名全副武装的恐怖分子。他们不顾个人安危，冲向恐怖分子并将其控制。只有一些人似乎能在这种千钧一发之际展现出英勇行为。为什么有些人能在关键时刻挺身而出，而有些人却不能，这个问题一直难以解释。)”可知，在第一段中，作者通过描述三名年轻美国男子在火车上遇到恐怖分子并控制其的情境，为文章的主题——英勇行为的出现——提供了一个具体的例子。这种引入方式是通过实际事件或场景来吸引读者，并引导读者进入文章的主题。故选A。 6．词义猜测题。根据划线单词所在句“Throughout human history, attaining a position of high status or dominance among one’s peers (同龄人) has been the ticket that needs to get punched for men to attract mates and father children.(在人类历史上，在同龄人中获得高地位或支配地位一直是男性吸引伴侣和繁衍后代……的“门票”。)”可知，男性需要“门票”来吸引伴侣和繁衍后代，这里“ticket”比喻为达到某个目的所需的条件或资格，而“get punched”则比喻为“获得”这个条件或资格。选项A“Be purchased (被购买)”；选项B“Be gifted (被赠送)”；选项C“Be obtained (被获得)”；选项D“Be abandoned (被放弃)”。故选C。 7．细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Psychologists are still at a loss to predict in advance who will heroically step up when needed. Often, the hero is an otherwise ordinary person who finds himself in extraordinary circumstances. Meanwhile, some individuals trained to behave heroically might hesitate during a crisis. Future disasters will cry out for further acts of true heroism. Hopefully, the right mix of circumstances and personalities enable courage to carry the day. (心理学家仍然无法提前预测谁会在需要时英勇地挺身而出。通常，英雄只是一个在非凡情况下发现自己身处其中的普通人。同时，一些接受过英勇行为训练的人在危机时刻可能会犹豫不决。未来的灾难将呼唤更多的真正英勇行为。希望合适的情境和个性的结合能让勇气战胜一切。)”可知，英勇行为并不是由单一因素决定的，而是受多种因素影响的。此外，虽然个性与英勇行为之间有关系，但研究仍处于初级阶段，且有些受过英勇行为训练的人在危机时刻也可能会犹豫。因此，很难根据个性或其他单一因素来预测谁在危机中会表现出英勇行为。故选B。 8．主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Why some men rise to the occasion— and others don’t— has been a bit tricky to explain. Psychologists have explored this question through biological and personality psychology.(为什么有些人能在关键时刻挺身而出，而有些人却不能，这个问题一直难以解释。心理学家已通过生物学和个性心理学对这个问题进行了探究。)”以及全文内容可知，文章主要探讨了是什么因素促使一些人在关键时刻展现出英勇行为，而其他人却不能。它涉及了英勇行为的多种表现形式、生物学原因、与个性的关系以及研究的现状和未来展望。因此，文章的核心是探讨是什么造就了英雄，即是什么因素促使人们表现出英勇行为。选项D“What Makes a Person Heroic?(是什么造就了英雄？)”准确地概括了文章的主题和核心内容。故选D。 【词汇积累】 1.encounter v. 遭遇；偶遇 n. 遭遇，偶遇 2.personal adj. 个人的；亲自的；人际的；个别的3.control n. 统治；控制（力）；克制；管理；限制 v. 指挥；控制；限定；限制 4.capable adj. 有能力的；胜任的 5.personality psychology 人格心理学 6.reputation n. 名誉，名声 7.assume v. 假设，认为；承担（责任）；获得（权利）；呈现；假装 8.indicate v. 表明，暗示；指示；象征 9.heroism n. 英雄行为，英勇精神；英雄气概 10.circumstance n. 条件；环境；情况；情形 Passage 3 阅读七选五 （2025·四川省成都市模拟预测） 阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。 Nobody prays to have their home broken into or property stolen. 1 According to a recent report making the rounds on the Internet at least one home is burgled every 15 seconds in the United States. So, how do you protect your home and property from these evildoers? First of all, plant security cameras in plain sight. 2 Having a camera in plain sight will instantly prevent criminals from attempting any bad activity they may have in mind. Besides, it sends a message to criminals that there are probably some other security measures in place. Having security cameras in open places leaves room for tampering (做手脚). Professional thieves and burglars may tamper with the camera or even try to avoid the line of coverage of the camera while carrying out their operation. This is why it makes sense to have a second line of defense—a hidden camera. 3 Again, the wireless camera referenced above works here, too. Whether you’re new in an area or not, it’s advisable to be friends—or at least be on good terms—with your neighbors. This helps to keep an extra eye of protection on your house, especially when you’re not around. In case of a break-in attempt, your neighbors will most likely be the first to know someone is attempting to break into your property. 4 Finally, make sure every single door in your house has up-to-date, durable frames and protective hinges (铰链). 5 But beyond that, the kind of effort it would take to break such doors down will surely create some noise, which will likely alert your neighbors there’s been a break-in. A．This idea makes sense for some reasons. B．But actually these things happen every day. C．Home security is a term that involves multiple aspects. D．They will contact the police or try to scare the burglar off. E．It will reveal the criminals’ identities in case of a break-in. F．Gone are the days of the complicated home security systems. G．On the surface, this will stop criminals stealing into your property. 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．E 4．D 5．G 【解析】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是保护家庭和财产安全免受盗窃等犯罪行为侵害的方法和措施。 1．空后“According to a recent report making the rounds on the Internet at least one home is burgled every 15 seconds in the United States.(根据最近在互联网上流传的一份报告，在美国，每15秒至少有一个家庭被盗。)”说明家庭被盗发生的频率很高，B选项“But actually these things happen every day.(但实际上这些事情每天都在发生。)”说明了家庭被盗每天都在发生，说明了频率很高，引起下文，符合语境，故选B。 2．空前“First of all, plant security cameras in plain sight.(首先，把监控摄像头放在显眼的地方。)”是一个方法，也就是在显眼的地方装个监控摄像头，空后“Having a camera in plain sight will instantly prevent criminals from attempting any bad activity they may have in mind. Besides, it sends a message to criminals that there are probably some other security measures in place.(在显眼的地方安装摄像头会立即阻止犯罪分子企图进行他们可能想到的任何不良活动。此外，它向犯罪分子发出了一个信息，即可能还有其他一些安全措施。)”解释了装监控的好处，空格处应该是承上启下，说明装监控是有意义的，A选项“This idea makes sense for some reasons.(出于某些原因，这个想法是有道理的。)”说明了装监控是有意义的，承上启下，符合语境，故选A。 3．空前“This is why it makes sense to have a second line of defense—a hidden camera.(这就是为什么有第二道防线——隐藏摄像头是有意义的。)”说明了要装隐藏摄像头，空格处应该说装隐藏摄像头的好处，E选项“It will reveal the criminals’ identities in case of a break-in.(一旦有人闯入，它将暴露罪犯的身份。)”说明了装隐藏摄像头可以暴露罪犯的身份，承接上文，符合语境，故选E。 4．空前“In case of a break-in attempt, your neighbors will most likely be the first to know someone is attempting to break into your property.(如果有人试图闯入，你的邻居很可能是第一个知道有人试图闯入你的房子的人。)”说明有人闯入你的房子时，邻居可能是第一个知道的，空格处应该继续说邻居然后会干什么，D选项“They will contact the police or try to scare the burglar off.(他们会报警或设法把窃贼吓跑。)”说明了邻居会报警，承接上文，符合语境，故选D。 5．空前“Finally, make sure every single door in your house has up-to-date, durable frames and protective hinges (铰链).(最后，确保你家里的每一扇门都有最新的、耐用的框架和保护铰链。)”说明了要确保门上有铰链，空格处应该说有铰链的好处，G选项“On the surface, this will stop criminals stealing into your property.(从表面上看，这将阻止罪犯盗窃你的财产。)”说明了有铰链的好处，承接上文，符合语境，故选G。 Passage 4 完形填空 One day in March 2014, Caitlin Shetterly boarded a 1 home from the WestCoast to Maine. As everyone 2 their seats and prepared for takeoff, Shetterly started 3 with the man next to her. She was newly pregnant and feeling 4 , and he seemed to notice she was anxious. Then she shared what was on her 5 : Ever since the 9/11 terrorist attacks, she told him, flying had made her nervous. “Do you ever get nervous?” Shetterly asked. The man said that he didn’t. Then he leaned over, his face full of 6 , and told her something that she still tells her children today. “Most people are good,” he said. For Shetterly, it was like a 7 button. She felt herself totally 8 the anxiety she was feeling about flying. When Shetterly got home, she told her husband about the stranger’s words. In 2023, when a gunman killed 18 people nearby, she overheard her husband in their younger son’s bedroom, trying to 9 him. “Most people are good,” she heard him say. “That 10 , those four words, has totally 11 us and how we react to 12 .” Shetterly said. Today, she shares those words with people who seem 13 — to remind them that there is 14 all around, even when we’re afraid. “I just hope someday that people remember me saying that, too.

A 25-year-old man was arrested on suspicion of 2 (attempt) murder after the incident shortly before 2100 GMT on Monday. The three victims were taken to a nearby hospital in a serious but not life- 3 (threaten) condition. A woman in her 50s suffered injuries to her face and stomach, 4 a man, also in his 50s, has injuries to his stomach.
