Over the years, reading has become an important part of my life. I always remember a famous 1 , “Books are the ladder (梯子) of human progress.”
Take my favourite book, Wonder, for example. It tells the story of August, a 10-year-old boy. He was 2 with facial deformities (面部畸形). August’s first year at school was terrible. Most people were afraid of him and stayed away from him.
But he never gave up on himself or lost 3 . During that hard time, a girl named Summer 4 with him and wanted to be his friend. That was the first time he felt kindness from friends.
Then a surprising event at a school camp 5 everything. People found how 6 he was to fight the prejudice (偏见) and how hard it was for him to get along with others, leading them to 7 him better.
Kindness is the main theme in Wonder. It helps me realize that a small, 8 act of kindness can make a big difference and that we all have the ability to practice kindness. From this book, I have also learned to face differences in people. Maybe if we understood what other people were thinking, we’d know that everyone is a special star, always 9 to shine.
Books like this make me believe that reading can 10 change people’s outlook on life. So, I hope you can find a book that brightens your day, and try to make reading a part of your life.

Last month, our school organized a volunteer activity at the city library. I loved reading, so I took part in it 1 thinking twice. I thought it would be the easiest and most 2 job—just being around books all day.
However, my task was not to read, but to help sort and return books to the shelves. Mrs. Li, the librarian, told us, “This job needs 3 and responsibility (责任心). A misplaced book is almost a 4 one.” At first, I found it boring and tiring. I had to run between different sections, and my feet ached. I wasn’t tall 5 to reach the top shelves, so I had to use a ladder again and again. I started to think I had made a 6 .
One afternoon, I 7 an old man walking slowly between the bookshelves. He looked confused. I remembered Mrs. Li’s words about being helpful, so I went over and asked 8 , “Can I help you find something?”
He looked up, a bit surprised, and said, “I’m looking for a book on Chinese history for my grandson. But I’m not good at 9 these computers.” I helped him use the search system and found the book. His smile of thanks was so genuine (真诚的) that I felt a sudden warmth in my heart.
From that day on, I started to pay more 10 to the people around me. I helped a little girl find her favorite storybook and showed a student 11 to borrow books. Every “thank you” made me feel useful. The library wasn’t 12 a place of silent books any more; it was a place where small acts of kindness could make a big difference.
The activity ended last week. Now, I understand that volunteering is not about having a comfortable job. 13 , it’s about using your time to help others and make things better. It’s about the feeling you get when you see the smile you helped to create. It was a valuable lesson that I won’t 14 easily. Sometimes, the most important discoveries aren’t in the books on the shelves, 15 in the actions we take to help each other.

He hypothesized (假设)that elevated pressure might contribute to 6 aging (变老), offering potential insights for longevity (寿命) research.
Throughout his underwater stay, Dr Dituri remained remarkably 7 . He maintained a rigorous daily routine: morning workouts keep his physical fitness, online talks for students worldwide, and interactive sessions with over 5,500 learners from 15 countries. Additionally, he received visits from a few 8 who dove down to engage with him. A professional medical team also 9 him regularly to monitor (监测) his health indicators. When asked about his greatest hope, Dr Dituri mentioned the 10 most sincerely.

yet然而;too也;even甚至;still仍然。根据“had my eyes closed”可知,老人强调他自己也闭着眼睛,所以用“too”表示“也”。故选B。

Pang Zhongwang is an inspiring young man. Born in a small village in Hebei Province, he faced a hard life from childhood. His father has a mental illness, and his mother is disabled—these difficulties, however, never made him 1 .
He held a strong belief that knowledge could change his fate. Every morning, he would start preparing breakfast for his parents; after that, he’d sit at the old desk to study. Even when the room was dark in the evening, he’d read by the 2 light of a small bulb (灯泡), never wasting a minute.

Now, Pang is a doctoral student at Tsinghua. He 7 keeps a strict schedule: most mornings, he goes to the lab; afternoons are for reading research papers; evenings are spent writing reports. His classmates say he’s always the 8 to arrive at the lab and the last to leave.

Over the years, reading has become an important part of my life. I always remember a famous 1 , “Books are the ladder (梯子) of human progress.”
Take my favourite book, Wonder, for example. It tells the story of August, a 10-year-old boy. He was 2 with facial deformities (面部畸形). August’s first year at school was terrible. Most people were afraid of him and stayed away from him.
But he never gave up on himself or lost 3 . During that hard time, a girl named Summer 4 with him and wanted to be his friend. That was the first time he felt kindness from friends.
Then a surprising event at a school camp 5 everything. People found how 6 he was to fight the prejudice (偏见) and how hard it was for him to get along with others, leading them to 7 him better.
Kindness is the main theme in Wonder. It helps me realize that a small, 8 act of kindness can make a big difference and that we all have the ability to practice kindness. From this book, I have also learned to face differences in people. Maybe if we understood what other people were thinking, we’d know that everyone is a special star, always 9 to shine.
Books like this make me believe that reading can 10 change people’s outlook on life. So, I hope you can find a book that brightens your day, and try to make reading a part of your life.

“If you look the right way, you can see that the whole world is a 1 .” These words come from the author of the book The Secret Garden, first 2 in 1911. At that time, only the very rich in Britain had gardens. Very soon after this, homes with gardens began to be built.
Today, millions of Brits like to say that they have “ 3 ”, with around half the population spending their free time gardening. Each spring, children plant sunflowers and wait to see which one is the 4 .

Last month, our school organized a volunteer activity at the city library. I loved reading, so I took part in it 1 thinking twice. I thought it would be the easiest and most 2 job—just being around books all day.
However, my task was not to read, but to help sort and return books to the shelves. Mrs. Li, the librarian, told us, “This job needs 3 and responsibility (责任心). A misplaced book is almost a 4 one.” At first, I found it boring and tiring. I had to run between different sections, and my feet ached. I wasn’t tall 5 to reach the top shelves, so I had to use a ladder again and again. I started to think I had made a 6 .
One afternoon, I 7 an old man walking slowly between the bookshelves. He looked confused. I remembered Mrs. Li’s words about being helpful, so I went over and asked 8 , “Can I help you find something?”
He looked up, a bit surprised, and said, “I’m looking for a book on Chinese history for my grandson. But I’m not good at 9 these computers.” I helped him use the search system and found the book. His smile of thanks was so genuine (真诚的) that I felt a sudden warmth in my heart.
From that day on, I started to pay more 10 to the people around me. I helped a little girl find her favorite storybook and showed a student 11 to borrow books. Every “thank you” made me feel useful. The library wasn’t 12 a place of silent books any more; it was a place where small acts of kindness could make a big difference.
The activity ended last week. Now, I understand that volunteering is not about having a comfortable job. 13 , it’s about using your time to help others and make things better. It’s about the feeling you get when you see the smile you helped to create. It was a valuable lesson that I won’t 14 easily. Sometimes, the most important discoveries aren’t in the books on the shelves, 15 in the actions we take to help each other.

As the music begins, a Sichuan Opera performer steps onto the stage walking, kicking and dancing to the music while quickly changing face masks (面具).
No one notices anything unusual 1 the last mask is removed.
The audience realizes that this performer is kind of 2 .
In a small village in Sichuan, 19-year-old Yin Qiuhua, a girl with Down syndrome (唐氏综合征), has an amazing skill—Sichuan opera face-changing.
Yin faced many 3 because of Down syndrome. With her mother’s help, Yin learned how to take care of herself, starting with small tasks such as 4 , washing her face and brushing her teeth.
“I can’t take care of her for her entire life. My biggest wish was to find a suitable skill for her so she can make her own 5 ,” said Zhao, who gave birth to Yin. They tried almost every training course in Peng’an county, including violin and folk dance lessons. But Yin didn’t do well in 6 of them. “The problem was either my daughter 7 couldn’t understand what was being taught, the other children in the class had difficulty 8 her, or the teacher was unable to communicate with her,” she said.
Yin’s 9 to face-changing performance began by chance. Once Yin took part in a local Sichuan opera performance training. The group master 10 that Yin’s passion (激情) for Sichuan opera and her understanding of face-changing surpassed many people. So he began to teach Yin the art of face-changing 11 and Yin showed an amazing learning ability.
The process of learning face-changing was hard, but Yin 12 gave up. She woke up early every day to keep on memorizing and 13 every step of face-changing. Her efforts paid off and within a few months, she was already able to skillfully change several different facial masks.
Yin’s first stage performance was a big success. Her skillful movements and rich expressions were as excellent as 14 of Sichuan opera actors. Yin has proved with her 15 that in the face of difficulties, as long as there is passion and perseverance, one can always find his or her own piece of sky.

As Lia walked home from school on an October afternoon, she saw symmetry (对称) all around her: in the faces of people and in the cars that went by. All that month, Lia’s class had been studying 1 things of symmetry. Now their science teacher had given them a 2 to find the most beautiful example of symmetry.
What could that be? She thought and realized that she could 3 the microscope (显微镜) to study symmetry. Lia 4 hours on the examination of leaves, little rocks, and drops of water. Although she was amazed by what she saw, none of them was truly 5 .
One night, she stayed in the garden until her father 6 her inside. “Come in, Lia. It’s going to snow.” Lia was sad. The cold weather would mean fewer objects to look for. Her task was due in just a few days. Lia began to feel 7 .
“Come inside!” her father called again.
“Be there in a minute, Dad!” Lia called back.
Just then, she saw a snowflake (雪花) that had blown onto the stage of her microscope. Lia 8 to look through the microscope. To her 9 , she saw the most beautiful example of symmetry she could imagine.
“A snowflake! Why didn’t I think of that before?”
She 10 the microscope again and was surprised to find that there was nothing! The snowflake had 11 , taking all of its beauty with it.
“No! Wait! Oh, no!” cried Lia. She had to take the snowflake to class, but how? It would disappear 12 she could get on the bus! Then she had a(n) 13 . Lia ran to the house and took her camera. Within minutes, she put it under the microscope. She carefully 14 another snowflake on the microscope’s stage and took many wonderful pictures. Each snowflake was different, symmetrical, and 15 beautiful!
From then on, the whole class called her Snowflake Lia. Everybody praised Lia for her patience and hard work.

Dr Joseph Dituri, widely recognized as “Dr Deep Sea”, has just finished a great 1 .
Over the course of 100 days, the marine scientist lived underwater, establishing a new world 2 that shattered the previous record of 73 days.
On March 1, 2023, Dr Dituri 3 this groundbreaking project. His core goal was to endure 100 days in a specialized undersea habitat, about 6.7 meters 4 the ocean surface—a depth carefully chosen for scientific observation.
The deeper one dives beneath the ocean’s surface, the more intense the water pressure becomes.
Dr Dituri aimed to explore how prolonged exposure (暴露) to such pressure would 5 his physical condition. In his undersea living space, the pressure was around 66% higher than at sea level.
He hypothesized (假设)that elevated pressure might contribute to 6 aging (变老), offering potential insights for longevity (寿命) research.
Throughout his underwater stay, Dr Dituri remained remarkably 7 . He maintained a rigorous daily routine: morning workouts keep his physical fitness, online talks for students worldwide, and interactive sessions with over 5,500 learners from 15 countries. Additionally, he received visits from a few 8 who dove down to engage with him. A professional medical team also 9 him regularly to monitor (监测) his health indicators. When asked about his greatest hope, Dr Dituri mentioned the 10 most sincerely.
On June 9, 11 Dr Dituri emerged from the water, he was greeted by the long-missed sun.
Crowds gathered to welcome him and 12 his remarkable achievement. “This experience has 13 me deeply,” Dr Dituri said with a smile. 14 , the project brought about several notable changes in him: he grew 1.3cm shorter temporarily, his sleep quality improved significantly, and his overall health showed remarkable enhancements.
Dr Dituri emphasized that the most rewarding part of the project was 15 with young people. “Perhaps one day, one of these young minds will surpass the record I’ve set,” he remarked optimistically.

My parents used to tell me how important study was for me, but I didn’t think so. I paid little attention to it. But one thing let me finally 1 what my parents meant.
One day, when I 2 a mobile phone store, I saw an advertisement on its door. It was hiring (v. 雇佣) new workers!
“Sir, are you hiring people?” I went 3 the shop and asked. “Yes, but you should not be the man who we need,” the manager answered. He looked at me for a few 4 from head to foot. “Do you have a high school diploma (学历)?” he 5 , “Or do you have any work experience?”
I felt so ashamed (adj.羞愧的) -and 6 that I didn’t know what to say, so I just turned around and left. I could not fall 7 that night, and I thought a lot about my future. “I must go to school. I can’t do anything without a good education,” I said to myself 8 . I never went back to the store again 9 I finished my study and got a diploma.
10 looked the same when I returned to the store: the same people and the same design. However, compared with last time, I had more 11 . The manager told me they needed new 12 . So it was a great chance for me.
I 13 my diploma to the manager. He looked at it and said, “Great, you are in.”
Now I am 14 working in the same store. With this experience, I always tell people to attend school.
15 helps you have a bright future. Now I am not worried about my future because I’m always studying in my spare time.

An old man was sitting in the park.

“Oh! I can’t see well these days, so I didn’t recognize you. What are you doing now?” the old man asked.
“I have become a 1 .”
“Sir,” the young man went on, “when I was in seventh grade, something happened in our class. It could have been very 2 for me, but you got me out of trouble.”

“During break time, the watch was 5 .”

The old man was really 14 and said, “Oh, yes... I remember now. But son, I didn’t know who had stolen that watch because while I was checking all your pockets, I, 15 , had my eyes closed.”
