Sandesh Kadur, a National Geographic explorer, has spent 25 years documenting (记录) rare wildlife, changing his childhood interest into a duty to protect Earth’s ecosystems.
When he was young, Kadur was attracted by Corbett’s tales of big cats. Inspired, he once cycled into the jungle with a friend to observe big cats at a watering hole. At night, they really saw a big cat. Bathed in moonlight, he realized his life’s goal: to take photos of nature’s wonders and share them.
At 12, Kadur borrowed his father’s camera — a “magic box” that froze time. His father, a scientist who studies insects, got him looking at the small things. So he began intentionally taking photos of small insects, trying to understand what he was looking at. As he grew older, his love for nature, however, conflicted with academics. Afterwards, he moved to Brownsville, Texas to study hotel management — a choice that unexpectedly refueled his love for storytelling.
In Brownsville, Kadur explored the cloud forests and landed a job as a jungle tour guide. There, he met filmmaker John Bax, who introduced him to documentary work. When they started a documentary project together, Bax withdrew (退出) from it. Kadur, then 19 and untrained in film, carried on the project on his own. He later spent three years in India’s Western Ghats, filming species like the “smoke cat” for the first time. His first film, Sahyadris: Mountains of the Monsoon, brought the Western Ghats’ biodiversity into attention, aiding its 2012 UNESCO World Heritage status.
Through visual storytelling, Kadur offers his audience chances to know about a rarely-seen natural world, calling on them to protect its weak wildlife. “Visual art has told stories for thousands of years. Now we’re doing that with technology, and it will continue to advance.” said Kadur, “I think the influence of storytelling can last a lifetime. It can last generations.”
24. What led Kadur into nature?
A. Corbett’s stories of big cats. B. Working as a jungle tour guide.
C. Borrowing his father’s camera. D. His experience in hotel management.
25. What was his father’s influence on him?
A. Teaching him photography skills. B. Introducing him to documentary work.
C. Helping him regain love for storytelling. D. Arousing his curiosity about scientific details.
26. What is Kadur’s opinion about visual storytelling?
A. It well entertains audiences. B. It serves as a bridge for nature.
C. Its value lies in expression skills. D. Its impact depends on technology.
27. Which of the following words can best describe Kadur?
A. Determined and passionate. B. Talented and humorous.
C. Independent and generous. D. Responsible and serious.
【答案】24. A 25. D 26. B 27. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了国家地理探险家Sandesh Kadur如何将童年对自然的兴趣转化为保护地球生态系统的使命,并通过视觉叙事呼吁人们保护野生动物。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“When he was young, Kadur was attracted by Corbett’s tales of big cats. (小时候,Kadur被Corbett讲述的大型猫科动物的故事所吸引。)”可知,Corbett讲述的大型猫科动物的故事引领Kadur走进自然。故选A项。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段“His father, a scientist who studies insects, got him looking at the small things. So he began intentionally taking photos of small insects, trying to understand what he was looking at. (他的父亲是一位研究昆虫的科学家,这让他开始关注小事物。于是,他开始有意拍摄小昆虫,试图了解自己正在观察的是什么。)”可知,他的父亲激发了他对科学细节的好奇心。故选D项。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“Through visual storytelling, Kadur offers his audience chances to know about a rarely-seen natural world, calling on them to protect its weak wildlife. (通过视觉叙事,Kadur为观众提供了了解罕见自然世界的机会,呼吁他们保护脆弱的野生动物。)”可知,Kadur认为视觉叙事是连接人与自然的桥梁。故选B项。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Kadur, then 19 and untrained in film, carried on the project on his own. He later spent three years in India’s Western Ghats, filming species like the “smoke cat” for the first time. (当时19岁且未接受过电影制作培训的Kadur独自完成了这个项目。后来,他在印度西高止山脉度过了三年,首次拍摄了“烟猫”等物种。)”以及全文内容可知,Kadur在面对困难时坚持不懈,并且对自然和故事讲述充满热情,所以可以用“坚定且有激情的”来形容他。故选A项。
C
Minnesota, mid-winter. A snowstorm blows through the city, leaving 500,000 homes without power, drivers stuck on highways and flights put off. Meanwhile, forty feet up an electric pole (电线杆), a technician is trying to get the lights back on, but not knowing where to check the fix or how to call for support from the rescue centre.
When disaster hits, frontline workers must mobilize. But, too often, they are going to work armed with last century’s tools. Rescue efforts are running on clipboards (记事板) and piles of paper. And there’s a price: longer power failure, and water supply shut off for longer. This is one of cases calling for Industrial AI. It is AI that is trained to fix specific problems in dangerous situations where, sometimes, life is on the line. And, AI has the power to change how we respond (回应) to disasters.
Before a disaster hits, planners, with the help of an Industrial AI, predict where a heavy storm might move next — and map a live view of what is at risk. Rescue workers are timely sent to the exact sites as the facts change. And, once technicians are on the job, they will know what’s gone wrong on an image or video and they will finish the fix quickly through AI guidance.
“If we can cut recovery time by getting rescue workers to the right places with the right tools, before the event even hits, then hospitals stay powered, field teams work safely and families return to warm homes faster,” said Brian Burdette, head of the rescue team.
These are AI technologies that are already being tested. But, if we’re to see a real influence, we need to enter into a spirit of openness and cooperation (合作). We need nations and companies to pull together at a system-wide level, not just organization by organization or area by area, catching the chance that industrial AI presents for intelligent responses. For technicians risking their life in a disaster, we owe them that much.
28. What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us about the disaster?
A. Its cause. B. Its type. C. Its influence. D. Its location.
29. What does the underlined “life is on the line” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Time is running out. B. AI is worth its value.
C. People are waiting in line. D. People are risking their lives.
30. What is Brian Burdette’s attitude towards Industrial AI rescue work?
A. Supportive B. Doubtful C. Uncertain D. Objective
31. What does the author suggest about the rescue work in the last paragraph?
A. Cutting recovery time B. Encouraging cooperation.
C. Training skilled technicians. D. Using advanced technology.
【答案】28. C 29. D 30. A 31. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要说明了明尼苏达暴风雪暴露出传统救灾工具的低效问题。工业 AI 可预测灾害、指导救援、缩短恢复时间。作者呼吁各方合作,用 AI 提升救灾效率。

Meanwhile, forty feet up an electric pole (电线杆), a technician is trying to get the lights back on, but not knowing where to check the fix or how to call for support from the rescue centre.(明尼苏达州,隆冬时节。一场暴风雪席卷了这座城市,致使50万户家庭断电,司机被困在高速公路上,航班也被迫延误。与此同时,在一根40英尺高的电线杆上,一名技术人员正试图恢复供电,但他不知道该从何处查找解决办法,也不知道如何向救援中心请求支援)”可知,第一段主要向我们讲述了这场灾难的规模。故选C。

【30题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段““If we can cut recovery time by getting rescue workers to the right places with the right tools, before the event even hits, then hospitals stay powered, field teams work safely and families return to warm homes faster,” said Brian Burdette, head of the rescue team.( 救援队负责人布莱恩·伯德特说:“如果我们能在事件发生之前,就让救援人员携带合适的工具抵达现场,从而缩短救援时间,那么医院就能保持正常运转,救援队伍就能安全作业,受灾家庭也能更快地回到温暖的家中。”)”可知,布莱恩·伯德特对工业人工智能救援工作持支持态度。故选A。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段“We need nations and companies to pull together at a system-wide level, not just organization by organization or area by area, catching the chance that industrial AI presents for intelligent responses.(我们需要各个国家和企业从整个系统层面携手合作,而不能只是按组织单位或地区分别行动,要抓住工业人工智能所带来的做出智能反应的机遇)”可知,作者建议救援工作鼓励合作。故选B。
D
A typical single-family house is encircled by green, its shrubs (灌木) and plants sitting just under windows and hugging external walls. It’s an image that California is trying to get homeowners to rethink as the state’s risk of extreme wildfires grows.
One year after the fast-moving Eaton and Palisades Fires destroyed more than 16,000 structures in Los Angeles, California is drafting the toughest statewide rules in the country for vegetation. In areas at risk of wildfires, homeowners would be required to clear some or all of the plants within five feet of their house, depending on what regulators decide. Well-maintained trees would still be allowed. The idea, called Zone Zero, is to prevent plants and flammable items from catching fire during a wildfire, spreading flames to the house and the surrounding neighborhood.
Still, the pushback has been strong, even in the Los Angeles area neighborhoods where so many lost homes. In public meetings, homeowners have voiced concerns about losing greenery and shade, as well as the cost of clearing the vegetation. Some say they believe plants saved their homes by acting as a buffer (缓冲), though many scientific studies show that vegetation increases the risk a building will burn. The new defensible space rules will affect about 17% of buildings in California.
Max Moritz, wildfire specialist at UC Santa Barbara, is one of the few fire experts who say that green plants may not pose a risk to houses and that more research needs to be done. Greener plants, which hold water in their leaves, are harder to ignite. He agrees that some plants, like highly flammable juniper and cypress, should not be allowed, nor should plants with dead leaves or dry branches.
“The really important aspect to the plants is the dead material,” he says. “If most homeowners are just going to let dead material accumulate in Zone Zero anyway, then it makes sense that there shouldn’t be any plants in Zone Zero.”
32. What is California’s concern about typical single-family houses?
A. They are easy to catch fire. B. They need routine maintenance.
C. They are packed closely together. D. They can’t resist extreme weather.
33. Why does the author mention Los Angeles in paragraph 3?
A. To illustrate the severity of wildfires.
B. To show strong objections to the new rules.
C. To emphasize public concerns about wildfires.
D. To indicate the widespread effect of the new rules.
34. According to Moritz, what is the key to preventing wildfires in Zone Zero?
A. Clearing away green plants. B. Watering plants more often.
C. Getting rid of dead material in time. D. Doing more research on plants.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Wildfires: A Deadly threat to California
B. Zone Zero: A New Way to Maintain Plants
C. California is Drafting Toughest Rules for Plants
D. Experts are Divided on the Functions of Greenery
【答案】32. A 33. B 34. C 35. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了随着加州面临极端野火风险增加,加州正在起草全国最严格的植被法规,要求在野火风险区域的房主清理房屋五英尺内的一些或全部植物,以防止野火蔓延,但这一举措引发了房主的强烈反对,同时也有专家对此持有不同看法。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“A typical single- family house is encircled by green, its shrubs (灌木) and plants sitting just under windows and hugging external walls. It’s an image that California is trying to get homeowners to rethink as the state’s risk of extreme wildfires grows. (典型的单户住宅被绿色环绕,灌木和植物就位于窗户下方,紧贴外墙。随着加州面临极端野火的风险增加,加州正试图让房主重新考虑这一现象)”以及第二段“In areas at risk of wildfires, homeowners would be required to clear some or all of the plants within five feet of their house, depending on what regulators decide. Well-maintained trees would still be allowed. The idea, called Zone Zero, is to prevent plants and flammable items from catching fire during a wildfire, spreading flames to the house and the surrounding neighborhood. (在野火风险区域,根据监管机构的决定,房主将被要求清理房屋五英尺内的一些或全部植物。维护良好的树木仍将允许存在。这个被称为“零区”的想法是为了防止植物和易燃物品在野火中着火,将火焰蔓延到房屋和周围社区)”可推知,加州担心典型的单户住宅容易被野火引燃,因为房屋周围有灌木和植物,在野火发生时容易着火并将火焰蔓延到房屋和周围社区。故选A。
【33题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Still, the pushback has been strong, even in the Los Angeles area neighborhoods where so many lost homes. In public meetings, homeowners have voiced concerns about losing greenery and shade, as well as the cost of clearing the vegetation. Some say they believe plants saved their homes by acting as a buffer (缓冲), though many scientific studies show that vegetation increases the risk a building will burn. (尽管如此,反对的声音依然强烈,甚至在洛杉矶地区许多房屋被毁的社区也是如此。在公开会议上,房主们表达了对失去绿色植物和阴凉以及清理植被成本的担忧。一些人表示,他们认为植物起到了缓冲作用,拯救了他们的房屋,尽管许多科学研究表明,植被会增加建筑物燃烧的风险)”可推知,作者提到洛杉矶是为了说明即使是在受野火影响严重的地区,房主们也对新规定表示了强烈的反对。故选B。
【34题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Max Moritz, wildfire specialist at UC Santa Barbara, is one of the few fire experts who say that green plants may not pose a risk to houses and that more research needs to be done. Greener plants, which hold water in their leaves, are harder to ignite. He agrees that some plants, like highly flammable juniper and cypress, should not be allowed, nor should plants with dead leaves or dry branches. (加州大学圣巴巴拉分校的野火专家Max Moritz是少数认为绿色植物可能不会对房屋构成威胁的火灾专家之一,他认为还需要进行更多的研究。叶子中含水量较高的绿色植物更难点燃。他同意一些植物,如高度易燃的杜松和柏树,不应该被允许种植,同样,有枯叶或干树枝的植物也不应该被允许种植)”以及最后一段““The really important aspect to the plants is the dead material,” he says. “If most homeowners are just going to let dead material accumulate in Zone Zero anyway, then it makes sense that there shouldn’t be any plants in Zone Zero.” (“对植物来说真正重要的是枯死的材料,”他说。“如果大多数房主只是让枯死的材料在零区堆积,那么零区就不应该有任何植物,这是有道理的。” )”可知,Moritz认为防止野火的关键是及时清除枯死的材料。故选C。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第二段“One year after the fast-moving Eaton and Palisades Fires destroyed more than 16,000 structures in Los Angeles, California is drafting the toughest statewide rules in the country for vegetation. In areas at risk of wildfires, homeowners would be required to clear some or all of the plants within five feet of their house, depending on what regulators decide. Well-maintained trees would still be allowed. The idea, called Zone Zero, is to prevent plants and flammable items from catching fire during a wildfire, spreading flames to the house and the surrounding neighborhood. (在快速蔓延的伊顿和帕利塞兹火灾摧毁了洛杉矶16000多座建筑一年后,加州正在起草全国最严格的植被法规。在野火风险区域,根据监管机构的决定,房主将被要求清理房屋五英尺内的一些或全部植物。维护良好的树木仍将允许存在。这个被称为“零区”的想法是为了防止植物和易燃物品在野火中着火,将火焰蔓延到房屋和周围社区)”结合文章主要介绍了随着加州面临极端野火风险增加,加州正在起草全国最严格的植被法规,要求在野火风险区域的房主清理房屋五英尺内的一些或全部植物,以防止野火蔓延,但这一举措引发了房主的强烈反对,同时也有专家对此持有不同看法。由此可知,C选项“加州正在起草最严格的植物法规”最符合文章主旨,适合作标题。故选C。

77. 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。
Growing up with ADHD (注意缺陷多动障碍), I struggled all the time to concentrate. If a subject didn’t grab my interest, my brain simply shut down. The frustration of not being able to absorb information made school extremely difficult.
By high school, I had fallen so far behind that attending class seemed pointless. My grades were always at the bottom and publicly posted for all to see, which fueled my shame and anxiety. Eventually, I began skipping classes. No one seemed to care about my potential, and I certainly didn’t see it myself.
Everything began to change when my teacher. Ms. Carter, found me hiding in an empty classroom, writing down my struggles and making drawings in a notebook one day. Ms. Carter watched me quietly for a while before gently saying, “You know, you have a real talent in writing. Why not try writing for the school newspaper?” I had never considered writing for others to see. Hesitantly, I agreed to give it a try. At first. I contributed small pieces, but over time, I took on more responsibility and became an editor.
One day, after a particularly well-received edition, Ms. Carter smiled and said, “You’ve come so far - I’m proud of you.” At her words, I felt my self-confidence rise to new heights. For the first time, I saw myself as bright and smart.
As my confidence grew, so did my expectations about the future. Ms. Carter encouraged me to consider college. All I needed to do was prepare a personal statement that showed my strengths, goals, and why I was a good fit for the college. Despite the push forward, there was still a cloud of uncertainty in the back of my mind. I expressed my thanks to Ms. Carter but said I would think about it.
注意:
1.续写短文的词数为150左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
When college applications opened, I hesitated.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
I called Ms. Carter as soon as I got the good news.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文
When college applications opened, I hesitated. The thought of applying seemed daunting, given my past struggles and the low expectations I had always held for myself. However, I remembered Ms. Carter’s words of encouragement and the sense of accomplishment I had felt as an editor for the school newspaper. Taking a deep breath, I decided to face my fears and submit my application, hoping that my passion for writing and the growth I had experienced would shine through. Finally, my application was approved.
I called Ms. Carter as soon as I got the good news. My voice trembled with excitement as I shared the news of my acceptance letter. Ms. Carter’s joy was palpable through the phone line; she congratulated me warmly and reminded me of how proud she was of my progress. I realized that with the right support and encouragement, I could achieve anything I set my mind to. Ms. Carter had been my guiding light, and I couldn’t wait to embark on this new chapter of my life, ready to face the challenges and opportunities that awaited me.

Sandesh Kadur, a National Geographic explorer, has spent 25 years documenting (记录) rare wildlife, changing his childhood interest into a duty to protect Earth’s ecosystems.
When he was young, Kadur was attracted by Corbett’s tales of big cats. Inspired, he once cycled into the jungle with a friend to observe big cats at a watering hole. At night, they really saw a big cat. Bathed in moonlight, he realized his life’s goal: to take photos of nature’s wonders and share them.
At 12, Kadur borrowed his father’s camera — a “magic box” that froze time. His father, a scientist who studies insects, got him looking at the small things. So he began intentionally taking photos of small insects, trying to understand what he was looking at. As he grew older, his love for nature, however, conflicted with academics. Afterwards, he moved to Brownsville, Texas to study hotel management — a choice that unexpectedly refueled his love for storytelling.
In Brownsville, Kadur explored the cloud forests and landed a job as a jungle tour guide. There, he met filmmaker John Bax, who introduced him to documentary work. When they started a documentary project together, Bax withdrew (退出) from it. Kadur, then 19 and untrained in film, carried on the project on his own. He later spent three years in India’s Western Ghats, filming species like the “smoke cat” for the first time. His first film, Sahyadris: Mountains of the Monsoon, brought the Western Ghats’ biodiversity into attention, aiding its 2012 UNESCO World Heritage status.
Through visual storytelling, Kadur offers his audience chances to know about a rarely-seen natural world, calling on them to protect its weak wildlife. “Visual art has told stories for thousands of years. Now we’re doing that with technology, and it will continue to advance.” said Kadur, “I think the influence of storytelling can last a lifetime. It can last generations.”
24. What led Kadur into nature?
A. Corbett’s stories of big cats. B. Working as a jungle tour guide.
C. Borrowing his father’s camera. D. His experience in hotel management.
25. What was his father’s influence on him?
A. Teaching him photography skills. B. Introducing him to documentary work.
C. Helping him regain love for storytelling. D. Arousing his curiosity about scientific details.
26. What is Kadur’s opinion about visual storytelling?
A. It well entertains audiences. B. It serves as a bridge for nature.
C. Its value lies in expression skills. D. Its impact depends on technology.
27. Which of the following words can best describe Kadur?
A. Determined and passionate. B. Talented and humorous.
C. Independent and generous. D. Responsible and serious.
C
Minnesota, mid-winter. A snowstorm blows through the city, leaving 500,000 homes without power, drivers stuck on highways and flights put off. Meanwhile, forty feet up an electric pole (电线杆), a technician is trying to get the lights back on, but not knowing where to check the fix or how to call for support from the rescue centre.
When disaster hits, frontline workers must mobilize. But, too often, they are going to work armed with last century’s tools. Rescue efforts are running on clipboards (记事板) and piles of paper. And there’s a price: longer power failure, and water supply shut off for longer. This is one of cases calling for Industrial AI. It is AI that is trained to fix specific problems in dangerous situations where, sometimes, life is on the line. And, AI has the power to change how we respond (回应) to disasters.
Before a disaster hits, planners, with the help of an Industrial AI, predict where a heavy storm might move next — and map a live view of what is at risk. Rescue workers are timely sent to the exact sites as the facts change. And, once technicians are on the job, they will know what’s gone wrong on an image or video and they will finish the fix quickly through AI guidance.
“If we can cut recovery time by getting rescue workers to the right places with the right tools, before the event even hits, then hospitals stay powered, field teams work safely and families return to warm homes faster,” said Brian Burdette, head of the rescue team.
These are AI technologies that are already being tested. But, if we’re to see a real influence, we need to enter into a spirit of openness and cooperation (合作). We need nations and companies to pull together at a system-wide level, not just organization by organization or area by area, catching the chance that industrial AI presents for intelligent responses. For technicians risking their life in a disaster, we owe them that much.
28. What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us about the disaster?
A. Its cause. B. Its type. C. Its influence. D. Its location.
29. What does the underlined “life is on the line” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A. Time is running out. B. AI is worth its value.
C. People are waiting in line. D. People are risking their lives.
30. What is Brian Burdette’s attitude towards Industrial AI rescue work?
A. Supportive B. Doubtful C. Uncertain D. Objective
31. What does the author suggest about the rescue work in the last paragraph?
A. Cutting recovery time B. Encouraging cooperation.
C. Training skilled technicians. D. Using advanced technology.
D
A typical single-family house is encircled by green, its shrubs (灌木) and plants sitting just under windows and hugging external walls. It’s an image that California is trying to get homeowners to rethink as the state’s risk of extreme wildfires grows.
One year after the fast-moving Eaton and Palisades Fires destroyed more than 16,000 structures in Los Angeles, California is drafting the toughest statewide rules in the country for vegetation. In areas at risk of wildfires, homeowners would be required to clear some or all of the plants within five feet of their house, depending on what regulators decide. Well-maintained trees would still be allowed. The idea, called Zone Zero, is to prevent plants and flammable items from catching fire during a wildfire, spreading flames to the house and the surrounding neighborhood.
Still, the pushback has been strong, even in the Los Angeles area neighborhoods where so many lost homes. In public meetings, homeowners have voiced concerns about losing greenery and shade, as well as the cost of clearing the vegetation. Some say they believe plants saved their homes by acting as a buffer (缓冲), though many scientific studies show that vegetation increases the risk a building will burn. The new defensible space rules will affect about 17% of buildings in California.
Max Moritz, wildfire specialist at UC Santa Barbara, is one of the few fire experts who say that green plants may not pose a risk to houses and that more research needs to be done. Greener plants, which hold water in their leaves, are harder to ignite. He agrees that some plants, like highly flammable juniper and cypress, should not be allowed, nor should plants with dead leaves or dry branches.
“The really important aspect to the plants is the dead material,” he says. “If most homeowners are just going to let dead material accumulate in Zone Zero anyway, then it makes sense that there shouldn’t be any plants in Zone Zero.”
32. What is California’s concern about typical single-family houses?
A. They are easy to catch fire. B. They need routine maintenance.
C. They are packed closely together. D. They can’t resist extreme weather.
33. Why does the author mention Los Angeles in paragraph 3?
A. To illustrate the severity of wildfires.
B. To show strong objections to the new rules.
C. To emphasize public concerns about wildfires.
D. To indicate the widespread effect of the new rules.
34. According to Moritz, what is the key to preventing wildfires in Zone Zero?
A. Clearing away green plants. B. Watering plants more often.
C. Getting rid of dead material in time. D. Doing more research on plants.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text?
A. Wildfires: A Deadly threat to California
B. Zone Zero: A New Way to Maintain Plants
C. California is Drafting Toughest Rules for Plants
D. Experts are Divided on the Functions of Greenery

Growing up with ADHD (注意缺陷多动障碍), I struggled all the time to concentrate. If a subject didn’t grab my interest, my brain simply shut down. The frustration of not being able to absorb information made school extremely difficult.
By high school, I had fallen so far behind that attending class seemed pointless. My grades were always at the bottom and publicly posted for all to see, which fueled my shame and anxiety. Eventually, I began skipping classes. No one seemed to care about my potential, and I certainly didn’t see it myself.
Everything began to change when my teacher. Ms. Carter, found me hiding in an empty classroom, writing down my struggles and making drawings in a notebook one day. Ms. Carter watched me quietly for a while before gently saying, “You know, you have a real talent in writing. Why not try writing for the school newspaper?” I had never considered writing for others to see. Hesitantly, I agreed to give it a try. At first. I contributed small pieces, but over time, I took on more responsibility and became an editor.
One day, after a particularly well-received edition, Ms. Carter smiled and said, “You’ve come so far - I’m proud of you.” At her words, I felt my self-confidence rise to new heights. For the first time, I saw myself as bright and smart.
As my confidence grew, so did my expectations about the future. Ms. Carter encouraged me to consider college. All I needed to do was prepare a personal statement that showed my strengths, goals, and why I was a good fit for the college. Despite the push forward, there was still a cloud of uncertainty in the back of my mind. I expressed my thanks to Ms. Carter but said I would think about it.
