After winning four World Cup overall championships, she ranks among the all-time leaders in World Cup victories. Vonn made history as the first American woman to win Olympic gold in downhill (速降) at the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics. Vonn showed great talent at age two when she first stepped onto the slopes (斜坡). She won her first race at seven and began international competitions by nine. Coming from an athletic family — her father was a former junior ski champion — Vonn received strong support. Yet her drive was unique. She didn’t just love to compete; she loved speed. The focus required for sharp turns at high speed and the excitement of risk-taking drew her to downhill racing. Recognizing her potential, the family moved to Colorado for world-class training and better opportunities. However, Vonn’s career was anything but easy. Crashing on ice at high speed without protection led to severe injuries — one crash nearly tore her leg in half. After many injuries, doctors advised her to retire. She initially followed this advice, saying, “Never give up. Just start a new chapter.” But Vonn wasn’t finished. She ended five years of retirement with a comeback. “I still love skiing, and that’s the only reason I came back,” she explained while preparing for the next Olympics. 4. What attracted Vonn to downhill racing? A. The top training in Colorado. B. The challenge of speed and risk. C. Her early success in competitions. D. Her father’s championship experience. 5. Why did Vonn’s family move to Colorado? A. To join a famous skiing club. B. To receive better medical treatment. C. To escape from their previous life. D. To further her training and career. 6. What can we learn about Vonn? A. She won her first race at nine. B. She found retirement life boring. C. She returned after five years of retirement. D. She is the most successful ski racer in history. 7. Which of the following can best describe Vonn? A. Talented and strong-willed. B. Honest and humorous. C. Careful and strict. D. Confident and generous. 【答案】4. B 5. D 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍传奇滑雪运动员林赛·沃恩的事迹。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The focus required for sharp turns at high speed and the excitement of risk-taking drew her to downhill racing.(高速急转弯所需的专注力，加上冒险带来的刺激感，让她迷上了速降滑雪。)”可知，速度与冒险的挑战吸引她从事速降滑雪。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“Recognizing her potential, the family moved to Colorado for world-class training and better opportunities.(家人察觉到她的天赋，便举家搬到科罗拉多州，以求接受顶尖训练、获得更多发展机遇。)”可知，搬家是为了接受顶级训练、获取更好发展机遇，助力职业发展。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“She ended five years of retirement with a comeback.(她结束五年退役生涯，再度重返赛场。)”可知，退役五年后，她再度复出。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据第二段“Vonn showed great talent at age two when she first stepped onto the slopes (斜坡).(沃恩两岁初次踏上雪坡，便展现出过人滑雪天赋。)”可知，她是有天赋的，根据最后一段“After many injuries, doctors advised her to retire. She initially followed this advice, saying, “Never give up. Just start a new chapter.” But Vonn wasn’t finished. She ended five years of retirement with a comeback.(历经数次伤病，医生建议她退役。起初她听从建议，并坦言：“永不言弃，只是开启人生新篇章。”但她并未就此告别赛场。结束五年退役生涯后，她再度回归。)”可知，她伤病缠身仍选择复出体现意志坚定。由此可知，她天资出众且意志顽强。 C Not every famous singer is as lucky as Rolling Stones lead singer Mick Jagger, who is still active even at age 82. One study suggests that even with the protection of wealth, which is usually linked with a longer life, famous singers can expect to cut almost five years off their life expectancy (寿命). The study was published in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health, and built on previous research that had already suggested that famous singers pass away younger. It wanted to look at whether it was fame (名誉) itself or the singers’ lifestyles that were behind this. The researchers made a list of 324 famous singers who worked between 1950 and 1990. Then they matched those stars with a list of 324 less famous singers by when they were born, where they were from, and if they were part of a band or not. Nearly 60% of the singers were in bands, while close to 30% were solo (独唱的) singers, and the rest had spent parts of their careers both solo and in bands. When the big stars were compared to their less famous “twins”, they were found to have a 33% higher death risk. The researchers said this makes stardom about as much a risk to health as occasionally smoking. The study also found that being part of a band could be protective, giving those singers a 26% lower death risk than solo singers. The researchers suggested that this could be because being part of a band means not having to deal with the pressure of being famous alone. 8. What was the study based on? A. Stars’ albums. B. Mick Jagger’s story. C. Previous research. D. An interview. 9. What did the researchers take into consideration when matching the singers? A. Their health condition. B. Their birth year. C. Their educational background. D. Their eating habits. 10. Which of the following has the closest meaning to “stardom” in paragraph 5? A. Being famous. B. A disease. C. Stars in the sky. D. Smoking. 11. What does the study find? A. Rock music is the most popular. B. Famous singers live unhealthily. C. Band members are under a lot of pressure. D. Well-known solo singers tend to have shorter lives. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. A 11. D 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了一项关于知名歌手寿命的研究。研究发现，即使拥有财富，知名歌手的预期寿命仍比不太出名的歌手短近五年，且独唱歌手比乐队成员的死亡风险更高。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The study was published in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health, and built on previous research that had already suggested that famous singers pass away younger.(该研究发表在《流行病学与社区健康杂志》上，并建立在先前已有研究的基础上，那些研究已经表明知名歌手去世更早。)”可知，这项研究是基于之前的研究开展的。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中的“Then they matched those stars with a list of 324 less famous singers by when they were born, where they were from, and if they were part of a band or not.(然后他们根据出生时间、来自哪里以及是否属于乐队，将这些明星与324位不太出名的歌手进行匹配。)”可知，研究人员在匹配歌手时考虑了他们的出生年份。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第五段“When the big stars were compared to their less famous “twins”, they were found to have a 33% higher death risk. The researchers said this makes stardom about as much a risk to health as occasionally smoking.(当大明星与不太出名的“双胞胎”相比时，他们的死亡风险高出33%。研究人员表示，这使得stardom对健康的危害与偶尔吸烟相当。)”可知，此处将stardom与偶尔吸烟对健康的危害作比较，说明stardom指的是“成名”这一状态，与Being famous意思相近。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段中的“When the big stars were compared to their less famous “twins”, they were found to have a 33% higher death risk.(当把这些大明星与他们不那么出名的“双胞胎”进行比较时，发现他们的死亡风险高出33%。)”以及最后一段中的“The study also found that being part of a band could be protective, giving those singers a 26% lower death risk than solo singers.(研究还发现，成为乐队的一员可能具有保护作用，使这些歌手的死亡风险比独唱歌手低26%。)”可知，知名独唱歌手往往需要独自承受成名压力，倾向于拥有更短的寿命。 D If you look online, you can find earbuds(耳机) for less than $ 10 that offer real-time AI-powered translation of dozens of languages. You just put in the earbuds, and they’ll translate what they hear into your chosen language. That means if you’re trying to communicate with a police officer in Spain, a shop helper in Malaysia or a new friend in Egypt, you’ll be able to understand what they’re saying thanks to the earbuds. Some of these earbuds even say their translations are 99% accurate(精确的). It sounds almost like magic, doesn’t it? Perhaps. But translating a language and learning a language are very different things, language experts remind us. Writing in The Conversation, language professor Gabriel Guillén and Thor Sawin say that while translation earbuds may be useful for a moment, they can’t replace the benefits of language learning. “The effort of learning a language communicates respect, trust and a willingness to see the world through someone else’s eyes,” they add. “And as people continue to move around the world more and more, learning languages allows us to make deeper connections with people from different cultures.” Research has already suggested that using AI when we’re writing means we exercise our brains less — and the same idea applies to translation earbuds. They give us answers, but we don’t have to work our minds to get them. Guillén and Sawin admit that learning a language isn’t easy, but it is rewarding. In fact, they add, “Language learning builds exactly what AI-age companies want: lifelong learning, creative thinking and active listening.” So it’s easy to look at those cheap earbuds and think about all the things we could gain by using them. But we should also think: What might we lose by taking the easy route? 12. What does the first paragraph mainly tell us about the earbuds? A. Their use cases. B. Their appearance. C. Their inconvenience. D. Their operating instructions. 13. What do Guillén and Sawin agree on? A. Translation earbuds enable active listening. B. AI-powered earbuds are completely useless. C. Language beginners should take an easy route. D. Language learning may reduce culture shock. 14. What is the problem of using translation earbuds according to the research? A. It lacks security. B. It weakens our thinking. C. It exercises our ears less. D. It gets 99% of its translations wrong. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. AI Applications in Language Learning B. A Conversation Between AI and Human Beings C. Why Learning Languages Still Matters in the AI Age D. How Translation Earbuds Make Language Learning Unnecessary 【答案】12. A 13. D 14. B 15. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了实时翻译耳机虽然能提供便捷的语言转换服务，但语言专家指出这并不能替代真正的语言学习，文章论证了在人工智能时代学习语言依然具有重要价值。 【12题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第一段“If you look online, you can find earbuds (耳机) for less than $ 10 that offer real-time AI-powered translation of dozens of languages. You just put in the earbuds, and they’ll translate what they hear into your chosen language. That means if you’re trying to communicate with a police officer in Spain, a shop helper in Malaysia or a new friend in Egypt, you’ll be able to understand what they’re saying thanks to the earbuds.(如果你在网上看，你会发现不到10美元就能买到提供几十种语言实时人工智能翻译的耳机。你只需戴上耳机，它们就会把听到的内容翻译成你选择的语言。这意味着，如果你试图与西班牙的警察、马来西亚的店员或埃及的新朋友交流，多亏了这些耳机，你将能够理解他们在说什么。)”可知，第一段主要列举了耳机在西班牙、马来西亚、埃及等不同国家和场景下的具体应用，即其主要的使用案例。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中的““The effort of learning a language communicates respect, trust and a willingness to see the world through someone else’s eyes,” they add. “And as people continue to move around the world more and more, learning languages allows us to make deeper connections with people from different cultures.”(他们补充道：“学习一门语言的这份心意，彰显着尊重与信任，也体现出愿意换位思考、以他人视角看待世界的态度。如今跨国往来愈发频繁，掌握不同语言能让我们与异域文化的人们建立更深层次的联系。”)”可知，Guillén和Sawin认为语言学习能帮助人们建立深层连接，理解不同文化。由此推断，这自然会减少因文化差异带来的冲击。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“Research has already suggested that using AI when we’re writing means we exercise our brains less — and the same idea applies to translation earbuds. They give us answers, but we don’t have to work our minds to get them.(研究已经表明，当我们写作时使用人工智能意味着我们的大脑锻炼得更少——同样的概念也适用于翻译耳机。它们给我们答案，但我们不需要动脑筋去获得它们。)”可知，研究指出的问题在于使用翻译耳机让我们省去了思考的过程，从而削弱了我们大脑的思维能力。 【15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Guillén and Sawin admit that learning a language isn’t easy, but it is rewarding. In fact, they add, “Language learning builds exactly what AI-age companies want: lifelong learning, creative thinking and active listening.”(吉列恩和索温坦言，学习一门语言并非易事，但收获颇丰。他们还补充道：“语言学习恰恰能培养出人工智能时代企业所看重的能力：终身学习能力、创造性思维以及积极倾听的素养。”)”文章以AI翻译耳机为切入点，对比人工智能翻译工具与人工语言学习的差异，重点阐述在人工智能时代，语言学习依然有着不可替代的重要价值。C选项“Why Learning Languages Still Matters in the AI Age(为什么在人工智能时代学习语言仍然重要)”最能概括全文主旨。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Typhoons are powerful storms that can cause serious damage, especially to homes and communities. ____16____ .

E 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了台风的危害，并给出了几条应对台风的安全建议。 【16题详解】 上文“Typhoons are powerful storms that can cause serious damage, especially to homes and communities.(台风是威力巨大的风暴，会造成严重破坏，尤其对房屋和社区影响很大。)”讲台风会造成严重破坏；而下文“If you live in a place that is often affected by typhoons, follow these safety tips to protect yourself and your loved ones.(如果你居住在经常受台风影响的地区，请遵循以下安全提示，保护好自己和家人。)”给出安全建议。选项G“For families, especially children, the experience can be frightening(对家庭，尤其是孩子来说，这种经历可能是令人恐惧的。)”说明台风对家庭尤其是孩子而言很可怕，起到承上启下的作用。 【17题详解】 根据段首句“Talk to your family about typhoons.(和家人聊聊台风相关知识。)”可知，本段建议和家人谈论台风；选项F“Explain what they are, how they form, and the dangers they bring(向他们解释什么是台风、台风如何形成，以及它们带来的危险。)”具体说明要解释台风是什么、如何形成及带来的危险，与本段主题一致。故选F。 【18题详解】 空处为段首句，为本段主要内容。根据下文“Choose a safe room in your house where everyone can go during a storm. Pack an emergency kit with things you will need like canned food, bottled water, first-aid supplies, flashlights, batteries, and important papers. If your house is not strong enough to survive a typhoon, follow evacuation (撤离) orders from local authorities.(在家里选一间安全的房间，供暴风雨来临时全家人躲避。准备一个应急包，装上必需品，比如罐头食品、瓶装水、急救用品、手电筒、电池和重要证件。如果你的房屋不够坚固，无法抵御台风，请听从当地政府的撤离指令。)”可知，下文提到确定安全房间、准备应急包、撤离方案等，都是安全计划的内容。选项A“Practice your safety plan(演练你们的安全预案。)”概括了本段内容。故选A。 【19题详解】 上文“Know what kind of weather events are common in your areas, such as strong winds or floods.(了解你所在地区常见的灾害天气，比如强风或洪水。)”建议了解当地风险；而下文“You should also learn about local alert (警报) systems, so you can receive timely warnings.(你还应了解当地的警报系统，以便及时收到预警信息。)”则讲了解警报系统。选项B“Keep track of weather reports(密切关注天气预报。)”符合了解天气与预警的语境。故选B。 【20题详解】 上文“Keep important papers, like your ID and medical records, safe by storing them in waterproof bags or placing them above flood levels.(将身份证、病历等重要证件存放在防水袋中，或放置在洪水水位以上的位置妥善保管。)”建议用防水袋存放重要文件。选项E“This will protect them from getting damaged during the storm(这样可以保护它们在暴风雨中不被损坏。)”延续上文内容，是前文做法的结果，衔接紧密。故选E。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 When I was a young man starting college, I began writing my first ___21___ for a local county newspaper.

I made a U-turn and offered to give her a ride. She thanked me and got in. After a few blocks, we passed under a bridge where several homeless people were living. She asked me to stop. I hesitated, thinking to myself, “Could this be where she lives?” Thankfully, it wasn’t. She rolled down her window and called out to them, “You all come by later. It’s spaghetti (意大利面) night tonight.” Then, we continued on, chatting. Her name was Ida. She worked at a grocery (杂货店) store and had missed her bus. She had grandchildren. She even shared her spaghetti recipe with me. It was getting dark, and I began to feel uneasy. We continued down unfamiliar streets until she finally pointed to an old house where she lived. Several young men stood around the entrance. One, with long hair, stared (盯) at me with an unusual smile. I felt nervous, but Ida seemed calm. I quickly helped her unload (卸货) and drove away. Soon, darkness fell. I got lost and had to rely on my GPS. Suddenly, I heard a motorcycle behind me. It was that young man with long hair! 注意：1．续写词数应为150个左右； 2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 He kept following me, waving for me to stop. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ The young man handed me my wallet through the window. ___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible version: He kept following me, waving for me to stop. My heart raced with fear. I tried to speed up, but he stayed close. In panic, I drove erratically as I reached down for my phone, which was in my wallet, to call for help — only to find my wallet gone! “The elderly woman must be the one who took it!” I thought angrily. Then I noticed a different wallet on the floor of my car. Meanwhile, the young man still followed, now holding up my wallet! Confused, I stopped the car. The young man handed me my wallet through the window. “Grandma sent me. She picked it up by mistake. She’s very sorry.” His smile now seemed kind, not frightening. I was speechless as I handed him his grandma’s wallet and then he went off in a hurry. I waved at the young man to stop as I quickly got a few dollars from my wallet. I wanted to reward him ever so slightly, but he had disappeared into the night. I never had a chance to say I was sorry for my thoughts. Just because he looked like he was on the “wild side”, I assumed he was a bad man. 【解析】 【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了作者在一个炎热的傍晚帮助一位名叫Ida的老妇人搭车回家。到达Ida家时，作者因门口几个年轻男子而感到不安，尤其是一个长发男子奇怪的笑容令他紧张。作者帮Ida卸货后匆忙离开，却在黑暗中迷路，此时那个长发男子骑摩托车追了上来，作者顿时陷入恐惧，以为遭遇了危险。 【详解】1. 段落续写： ① 由第一段首句内容可知，第一段可描写作者被追赶时的恐惧心理，发现钱包丢失后误以为是Ida偷的，却意外发现车上多了另一个钱包，而长发男子正举着自己的钱包在追赶。 ② 由第二段首句内容可知，第二段可描写长发男子归还钱包并解释是Ida误拿了钱包，作者意识到自己以貌取人的错误，想要回报却已来不及，最终反思不应仅凭外表判断他人。 2. 续写线索：被追赶感到恐惧 ——发现钱包丢失，误以为是老妇人偷的 ——发现另一个钱包 ——男子举着“我”的钱包 —— 男子归还钱包并解释是奶奶误拿 ——作者感到愧疚 ——反思以貌取人的错误 3. 词汇激活 行为类 ① 注意到：notice/ spot ② 消失：disappear/vanish 情绪类 ①惊恐地 ：with fear/in terror ② 愤怒地：angrily/furiously 【点睛】【高分句型1】In panic, I drove erratically as I reached down for my phone, which was in my wallet, to call for help — only to find my wallet gone!

B Lindsey Vonn is one of the most successful ski racers in history. After winning four World Cup overall championships, she ranks among the all-time leaders in World Cup victories. Vonn made history as the first American woman to win Olympic gold in downhill (速降) at the 2010 Vancouver Winter Olympics. Vonn showed great talent at age two when she first stepped onto the slopes (斜坡). She won her first race at seven and began international competitions by nine. Coming from an athletic family — her father was a former junior ski champion — Vonn received strong support. Yet her drive was unique. She didn’t just love to compete; she loved speed. The focus required for sharp turns at high speed and the excitement of risk-taking drew her to downhill racing. Recognizing her potential, the family moved to Colorado for world-class training and better opportunities. However, Vonn’s career was anything but easy. Crashing on ice at high speed without protection led to severe injuries — one crash nearly tore her leg in half. After many injuries, doctors advised her to retire. She initially followed this advice, saying, “Never give up. Just start a new chapter.” But Vonn wasn’t finished. She ended five years of retirement with a comeback. “I still love skiing, and that’s the only reason I came back,” she explained while preparing for the next Olympics. 4. What attracted Vonn to downhill racing? A. The top training in Colorado. B. The challenge of speed and risk. C. Her early success in competitions. D. Her father’s championship experience. 5. Why did Vonn’s family move to Colorado? A. To join a famous skiing club. B. To receive better medical treatment. C. To escape from their previous life. D. To further her training and career. 6. What can we learn about Vonn? A. She won her first race at nine. B. She found retirement life boring. C. She returned after five years of retirement. D. She is the most successful ski racer in history. 7. Which of the following can best describe Vonn? A. Talented and strong-willed. B. Honest and humorous. C. Careful and strict. D. Confident and generous. C Not every famous singer is as lucky as Rolling Stones lead singer Mick Jagger, who is still active even at age 82. One study suggests that even with the protection of wealth, which is usually linked with a longer life, famous singers can expect to cut almost five years off their life expectancy (寿命). The study was published in the Journal of Epidemiology and Community Health, and built on previous research that had already suggested that famous singers pass away younger. It wanted to look at whether it was fame (名誉) itself or the singers’ lifestyles that were behind this. The researchers made a list of 324 famous singers who worked between 1950 and 1990. Then they matched those stars with a list of 324 less famous singers by when they were born, where they were from, and if they were part of a band or not. Nearly 60% of the singers were in bands, while close to 30% were solo (独唱的) singers, and the rest had spent parts of their careers both solo and in bands. When the big stars were compared to their less famous “twins”, they were found to have a 33% higher death risk. The researchers said this makes stardom about as much a risk to health as occasionally smoking. The study also found that being part of a band could be protective, giving those singers a 26% lower death risk than solo singers. The researchers suggested that this could be because being part of a band means not having to deal with the pressure of being famous alone. 8. What was the study based on? A. Stars’ albums. B. Mick Jagger’s story. C. Previous research. D. An interview. 9. What did the researchers take into consideration when matching the singers? A. Their health condition. B. Their birth year. C. Their educational background. D. Their eating habits. 10. Which of the following has the closest meaning to “stardom” in paragraph 5? A. Being famous. B. A disease. C. Stars in the sky. D. Smoking. 11. What does the study find? A. Rock music is the most popular. B. Famous singers live unhealthily. C. Band members are under a lot of pressure. D. Well-known solo singers tend to have shorter lives. D If you look online, you can find earbuds(耳机) for less than $ 10 that offer real-time AI-powered translation of dozens of languages. You just put in the earbuds, and they’ll translate what they hear into your chosen language. That means if you’re trying to communicate with a police officer in Spain, a shop helper in Malaysia or a new friend in Egypt, you’ll be able to understand what they’re saying thanks to the earbuds. Some of these earbuds even say their translations are 99% accurate(精确的). It sounds almost like magic, doesn’t it? Perhaps. But translating a language and learning a language are very different things, language experts remind us. Writing in The Conversation, language professor Gabriel Guillén and Thor Sawin say that while translation earbuds may be useful for a moment, they can’t replace the benefits of language learning. “The effort of learning a language communicates respect, trust and a willingness to see the world through someone else’s eyes,” they add. “And as people continue to move around the world more and more, learning languages allows us to make deeper connections with people from different cultures.” Research has already suggested that using AI when we’re writing means we exercise our brains less — and the same idea applies to translation earbuds. They give us answers, but we don’t have to work our minds to get them. Guillén and Sawin admit that learning a language isn’t easy, but it is rewarding. In fact, they add, “Language learning builds exactly what AI-age companies want: lifelong learning, creative thinking and active listening.” So it’s easy to look at those cheap earbuds and think about all the things we could gain by using them. But we should also think: What might we lose by taking the easy route? 12. What does the first paragraph mainly tell us about the earbuds? A. Their use cases. B. Their appearance. C. Their inconvenience. D. Their operating instructions. 13. What do Guillén and Sawin agree on? A. Translation earbuds enable active listening. B. AI-powered earbuds are completely useless. C. Language beginners should take an easy route. D. Language learning may reduce culture shock. 14. What is the problem of using translation earbuds according to the research? A. It lacks security. B. It weakens our thinking. C. It exercises our ears less. D. It gets 99% of its translations wrong. 15. What is the best title for the text? A. AI Applications in Language Learning B. A Conversation Between AI and Human Beings C. Why Learning Languages Still Matters in the AI Age D. How Translation Earbuds Make Language Learning Unnecessary 第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分） 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Typhoons are powerful storms that can cause serious damage, especially to homes and communities. ____16____ .

I hesitated, thinking to myself, “Could this be where she lives?” Thankfully, it wasn’t. She rolled down her window and called out to them, “You all come by later. It’s spaghetti (意大利面) night tonight.” Then, we continued on, chatting. Her name was Ida. She worked at a grocery (杂货店) store and had missed her bus. She had grandchildren. She even shared her spaghetti recipe with me. It was getting dark, and I began to feel uneasy. We continued down unfamiliar streets until she finally pointed to an old house where she lived. Several young men stood around the entrance. One, with long hair, stared (盯) at me with an unusual smile. I felt nervous, but Ida seemed calm. I quickly helped her unload (卸货) and drove away.
