阅读下列短文,从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。
A
Floods are one of the costliest natural disasters worldwide, with floodwater depth (D, meters) the key factor for measuring residential building damage. Geologists (地质学家) estimate the damage cost (C) of one-floor wooden houses — the most common suburban building type — based on D and the total property value (V, US dollars). The method is widely used for flood risk assessment and compensation calculations in flood-stricken regions across the globe, helping governments, insurance companies and residents make scientific disaster response plans.
Studies show 10 cm of indoor floodwater causes 10% of V in damage, with the rate rising proportionally as water depth increases. When the water depth reaches a certain level, the damage rate will stabilize and no longer rise, as the main structure and internal facilities of the house have been severely affected. This rule is particularly obvious in one-floor wooden houses, which are more vulnerable to water erosion (侵蚀) compared with other building types.
Flood insurance covers 70% of the calculated damage cost for insured families, a standard rate set by most global insurance institutions. Concrete buildings have only 50% of wooden houses’ damage rate at the same depth due to their more solid structure, which is a key point for residents to consider when choosing building materials. Relevant data and research results are derived from the official website of the Federal Emergency Management Agency (FEMA), which provides authoritative information on flood risk assessment and disaster prevention.

Last year, I signed up for a pottery class, determined to master the art of throwing clay and develop a relaxing creative hobby in my free time. My initial excitement was off the charts; I pictured myself crafting perfect delicate vases, posting beautiful works online, and even selling my handmade pieces at local weekend markets. For the first month, I showed up religiously to every lesson, covered in clay from head to toe and full of bright hope each day.
But reality hit hard and disappointed me greatly. My pots collapsed repeatedly while being shaped. They cracked easily in the hot kiln (窑), or their sides turned out uneven no matter how carefully I tried to fix them. By the third month, all my joy had faded completely, and each class felt like a boring and tiring chore. I found myself making silly excuses to skip lessons, fully convinced that I was simply “not talented enough” for this handmade craft.
One evening, as I stared at an ugly misshapen bowl I’d just made, my instructor gently leaned over. “Why do you keep going if it doesn’t bring you joy?” he asked. His thoughtful question made me pause and reflect deeply on my choice all at once. I’d always firmly believed that quitting meant total failure — that persistence alone was the only true virtue. But at that moment, I realized persistence without a clear purpose is just meaningless exhaustion.
The next week, I bravely quit the class. Surprisingly, I didn’t feel defeated at all; I felt light and free. I redirected all that spare time to my old love of sketching, and soon my notebooks were filled with warm, vibrant drawings. That’s when I learned an important lesson: quitting isn’t giving up. It’s choosing to invest your energy in what truly lights you up inside.
4. What does the underlined phrase “off the charts” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Extremely high. B. Constantly low.
C. Quite unexpected. D. Hard to understand.
5. How did the author feel about the pottery class in the third month?
A. She treated it cautiously. B. She was indifferent to it.
C. She felt pessimistic about it. D. She dismissed it from her mind.
6. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The instructor’s professional advice on pottery.
B. The author’s confusion about her lack of talent.
C. The turning point in the author’s attitude to quitting.
D. The reason why the author failed in making pottery.
7. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Stick to your goal B. Know when to stop
C. Treasure your hobby D. Follow your passion
C
With electric cars (EVs) skyrocketing in popularity around the world — in 2024, 22% of new car sales worldwide were electric vehicles, compared with 18% in 2023 — a growing body of studies and an increasing number of people have found that they feel more motion sick riding in EVs than in traditional petrol or diesel cars. This growing concern is supported not only by personal accounts but also by scientific research.
One explanation lies in the brain’s dependence on past experience to predict motion. As William Emond, a PhD student researching car sickness at the Université de Technologie de Belfort-Montbéliard in France, stated, most people are more familiar with fuel-powered cars, where engine noise and vibrations indicate changes in speed. In contrast, EVs operate quietly, providing fewer cues for the brain to anticipate movement, which may increase discomfort.
Certain features of EVs may further contribute to this issue. For example, there is a connection between motion sickness and seat vibrations in electric cars. In addition, the lack of engine sound removes an important source of sensory information that passengers typically rely on. “If we are accustomed to traveling in non-EVs, we are used to understanding the car’s motion based on signals such as engine vibrations, etc. Yet, traveling in an EV for the first time is a new motion environment for the brain, which needs adaptation,” Emond explains.
Another key factor is regenerative braking, a technology that slows the vehicle gradually by transforming kinetic energy (动能) into electricity. This leads to a gradual slowing of the car, which has been linked to higher levels of motion sickness because it conflicts with the body’s expectations of movement.
Motion sickness occurs when the brain receives conflicting signals from the inner ear, eyes, and body. When actual movement does not match what the brain anticipates, discomfort may result. Being able to anticipate the movement of a vehicle appears to be integral to the experience of motion sickness, which is why people who are driving a car don’t tend to experience symptoms. They know what is coming.
8. Why does the author mention the statistics in paragraph 1?
A. To suggest the growing sales of motor vehicles.
B. To illustrate variations in annual vehicle sales.
C. To warn readers of EVs’ hidden risk.
D. To highlight the popularity of EVs.
9. What can be inferred from paragraph 3?
A. Physical factors outweigh psychological ones in EV motion sickness.
B. Engine sound helps passengers predict movement.
C. Passengers rely mainly on visual signals in EVs.
D. Electric cars provide more sensory information.
10. Why is regenerative braking likely to increase motion sickness in EVs?
A. It creates motion that differs from body expectations.
B. It produces stronger physical movement in the car.
C. It causes sudden changes in the speed of EVs.
D. It reduces EVs’ overall stability.
11. What’s the text mainly about?
A. The causes of increased motion sickness in EVs.
B. The effects of vehicle design on passenger comfort.
C. The approaches to enhancing driving comfort in EVs.
D. The influence of driving habits on ride comfort in EVs.
D
A new drug has brought hope to children suffering from a serious form of epilepsy, a brain disease that causes repeated seizures (发作).
Studies show that the new drug can reduce seizures by up to 90% in children with Dravet syndrome, a rare type of epilepsy. It works by targeting the genetic changes that lead to the disease.
The findings come from an early-stage trial aimed at testing the new drug’s safety and determining the best dose (剂量). Researchers also examined whether the treatment could bring neuro-developmental (神经发育的) improvements and enhance quality of life, beyond reducing seizures. Results published on March 4 in The New England Journal of Medicine showed that the new drug can be safely given to children with Dravet syndrome, significantly cutting seizure numbers and improving overall well-being. “We saw improvements in all those areas, especially at higher doses,” said lead researcher Dr. Helen Cross, a professor of childhood epilepsy at University College London.
About half of people with Dravet syndrome die suddenly and prematurely due to the disease. Symptoms arise from problems with interneurons, cells that relay signals in the central nervous system. A specific gene known as SCN1A directs sodium channels, which are essential for interneuron signaling. Most people have two working copies of this gene, but in many with Dravet syndrome, a genetic change stops one of these copies from working properly. The new drug fixes this problem by increasing the amount of protein that the other working copy of the SCN1A gene produces.
A total of 81 children aged 2 to 18 participated in the early-stage study at hospitals in the U.K. and the U.S. Researchers tested several dosage plans — some children received a single treatment, while others got multiple treatments spaced months apart — to find the best treatment plan.
The trial is expected to finish in October 2028. Even with positive results, it will likely be several years before the treatment becomes widely available for children with Dravet syndrome.
12. What is the main function of the new drug?
A. To cure Dravet syndrome. B. To replace traditional medicines.
C. To improve hospital treatment plans. D. To reduce seizures in child patients.
13. How does the author make the results in paragraph 3 convincing?
A. By using numbers.
B. By citing a journal.
C. By quoting a patient.
D. By expressing personal opinions.
14. What can we learn from paragraph 4?
A. SCN1A directly controls signal passing between neurons.
B. Dravet syndrome results from complete SCN1A loss.
C. Interneurons mainly produce signals in the brain.
D. The new drug needs one normal gene copy to work.
15. What is the author’s attitude toward the new drug?
A. Neutral. B. Disappointed. C. Optimistic. D. Doubtful.

Mr. Whiteside was more than a regular teacher; he belonged to those rare educators who truly loved teaching. His joy spread through his smile as he stood by the geometry blackboard, showing his passion for plane geometry (平面几何). I was a quiet, shy student who rarely spoke up — never causing trouble or drawing attention. Yet in his class, plane geometry unexpectedly became my favorite subject. Through his lively teaching, the clear logic of geometric principles quietly awakened interest in my usually silent heart.
Toward the end of the year, Mr. Whiteside wanted to check our knowledge of geometry and gave us 25 true/ false questions — a nationally standardized test: The test presented each problem with a conclusion shown. If we could prove the result using rules we learnt in math class, the answer was true. If it couldn’t be proved, it was false.
I quickly finished 24 problems. However, number 17 seemed to be a great challenge. I knew deep down that I had the ability to prove its truth, but the exact approach was not immediately obvious. Finally, I spent 30 minutes working on that proof until it was completed. Satisfied, I marked the question true and handed in the completed test.
The following day, when the results came back, my score was an impressive 96, signaling a solid grasp of the subject. However, to my surprise and disappointment, number 17 was marked as incorrect. It was a blow to my confidence, but I couldn’t ignore the efforts I had put into that problem. I clearly remembered that I had racked my brain to cover my page with related lines, figures and formulas until the proof was there at last.
When Mr. Whiteside asked if there were any questions, for the first time, gathering all my courage, I raised my hand and spoke up, “The correct answer to number 17 is true!”
Instead of arguing that this was a nationally standardized test, Mr. Whiteside did the most powerful thing I have ever seen a teacher do.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右:

Last year, I signed up for a pottery class, determined to master the art of throwing clay and develop a relaxing creative hobby in my free time. My initial excitement was off the charts; I pictured myself crafting perfect delicate vases, posting beautiful works online, and even selling my handmade pieces at local weekend markets. For the first month, I showed up religiously to every lesson, covered in clay from head to toe and full of bright hope each day.
But reality hit hard and disappointed me greatly. My pots collapsed repeatedly while being shaped. They cracked easily in the hot kiln (窑), or their sides turned out uneven no matter how carefully I tried to fix them. By the third month, all my joy had faded completely, and each class felt like a boring and tiring chore. I found myself making silly excuses to skip lessons, fully convinced that I was simply “not talented enough” for this handmade craft.
One evening, as I stared at an ugly misshapen bowl I’d just made, my instructor gently leaned over. “Why do you keep going if it doesn’t bring you joy?” he asked. His thoughtful question made me pause and reflect deeply on my choice all at once. I’d always firmly believed that quitting meant total failure — that persistence alone was the only true virtue. But at that moment, I realized persistence without a clear purpose is just meaningless exhaustion.
The next week, I bravely quit the class. Surprisingly, I didn’t feel defeated at all; I felt light and free. I redirected all that spare time to my old love of sketching, and soon my notebooks were filled with warm, vibrant drawings. That’s when I learned an important lesson: quitting isn’t giving up. It’s choosing to invest your energy in what truly lights you up inside.
4. What does the underlined phrase “off the charts” in paragraph 1 probably mean?
A. Extremely high. B. Constantly low.
C. Quite unexpected. D. Hard to understand.
5. How did the author feel about the pottery class in the third month?
A. She treated it cautiously. B. She was indifferent to it.
C. She felt pessimistic about it. D. She dismissed it from her mind.
6. What is paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. The instructor’s professional advice on pottery.
B. The author’s confusion about her lack of talent.
C. The turning point in the author’s attitude to quitting.
D. The reason why the author failed in making pottery.
7. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. Stick to your goal B. Know when to stop
C. Treasure your hobby D. Follow your passion
【答案】4. A 5. C 6. C 7. B
【解析】
【导语】文章讲述作者学习陶艺屡屡受挫,在老师的启发下选择放弃,并重拾绘画爱好,从中领悟到适时放弃并非认输,而是理性选择。
【4题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第一段“My initial excitement was off the charts; I pictured myself crafting perfect delicate vases, posting beautiful works online, and even selling my handmade pieces at local weekend markets.(我一开始兴奋off the charts,想象着自己做出精致完美的花瓶,把作品发到网上,甚至在当地周末市集售卖手作。)”可知,作者最初的情绪十分高涨,想象自己能做出精美的花瓶,所以猜测off the charts表“十分高涨”。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“By the third month, all my joy had faded completely, and each class felt like a boring and tiring chore. I found myself making silly excuses to skip lessons, fully convinced that I was simply “not talented enough” for this handmade craft.(到了第三个月,我所有的喜悦荡然无存,每一节课都成了枯燥累人的琐事。我开始找借口缺课,认定自己没有做手工陶艺的天赋。)”可知,作者此时对陶艺课心态消极、感到悲观。
【6题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“One evening, as I stared at an ugly misshapen bowl I’d just made, my instructor gently leaned over. “Why do you keep going if it doesn’t bring you joy?” he asked. His thoughtful question made me pause and reflect deeply on my choice all at once. I’d always firmly believed that quitting meant total failure — that persistence alone was the only true virtue. But at that moment, I realized persistence without a clear purpose is just meaningless exhaustion.(一天傍晚,我正盯着刚做好的一只难看又歪扭的碗,老师轻轻靠了过来。“如果这件事不能给你带来快乐,为什么还要坚持呢?”他问道。这个意味深长的问题,让我瞬间停下脚步,开始认真反思自己的选择。我一直坚信,放弃就意味着彻底失败,唯有坚持才是唯一真正的美德。但就在那一刻我明白:没有明确目标的坚持,不过是毫无意义的消耗。)”可知,老师的提问让作者改变了对“放弃”的看法,这是作者心态的转折点。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文特别根据最后一段“That’s when I learned an important lesson: quitting isn’t giving up. It’s choosing to invest your energy in what truly lights you up inside.(那时我明白了一个道理:放弃并非认输,而是选择把精力投入到真正让自己热爱的事情上。)”可知,文章讲述作者学习陶艺屡屡受挫,在老师的启发下选择放弃,并重拾绘画爱好,从中领悟到我们要懂得适时止步、理智放弃。所以B项“Know when to stop(懂得适可而止)”符合语境,适合用作标题。
C
With electric cars (EVs) skyrocketing in popularity around the world — in 2024, 22% of new car sales worldwide were electric vehicles, compared with 18% in 2023 — a growing body of studies and an increasing number of people have found that they feel more motion sick riding in EVs than in traditional petrol or diesel cars. This growing concern is supported not only by personal accounts but also by scientific research.
One explanation lies in the brain’s dependence on past experience to predict motion. As William Emond, a PhD student researching car sickness at the Université de Technologie de Belfort-Montbéliard in France, stated, most people are more familiar with fuel-powered cars, where engine noise and vibrations indicate changes in speed. In contrast, EVs operate quietly, providing fewer cues for the brain to anticipate movement, which may increase discomfort.
Certain features of EVs may further contribute to this issue. For example, there is a connection between motion sickness and seat vibrations in electric cars. In addition, the lack of engine sound removes an important source of sensory information that passengers typically rely on. “If we are accustomed to traveling in non-EVs, we are used to understanding the car’s motion based on signals such as engine vibrations, etc. Yet, traveling in an EV for the first time is a new motion environment for the brain, which needs adaptation,” Emond explains.
Another key factor is regenerative braking, a technology that slows the vehicle gradually by transforming kinetic energy (动能) into electricity. This leads to a gradual slowing of the car, which has been linked to higher levels of motion sickness because it conflicts with the body’s expectations of movement.
Motion sickness occurs when the brain receives conflicting signals from the inner ear, eyes, and body. When actual movement does not match what the brain anticipates, discomfort may result. Being able to anticipate the movement of a vehicle appears to be integral to the experience of motion sickness, which is why people who are driving a car don’t tend to experience symptoms. They know what is coming.
8. Why does the author mention the statistics in paragraph 1?
A. To suggest the growing sales of motor vehicles.
B. To illustrate variations in annual vehicle sales.
C. To warn readers of EVs’ hidden risk.
D. To highlight the popularity of EVs.
9. What can be inferred from paragraph 3?
A. Physical factors outweigh psychological ones in EV motion sickness.
B. Engine sound helps passengers predict movement.
C. Passengers rely mainly on visual signals in EVs.
D. Electric cars provide more sensory information.
10. Why is regenerative braking likely to increase motion sickness in EVs?
A. It creates motion that differs from body expectations.
B. It produces stronger physical movement in the car.
C. It causes sudden changes in the speed of EVs.
D. It reduces EVs’ overall stability.
11. What’s the text mainly about?
A. The causes of increased motion sickness in EVs.
B. The effects of vehicle design on passenger comfort.
C. The approaches to enhancing driving comfort in EVs.
D. The influence of driving habits on ride comfort in EVs.
【答案】8. D 9. B 10. A 11. A

A new drug has brought hope to children suffering from a serious form of epilepsy, a brain disease that causes repeated seizures (发作).
Studies show that the new drug can reduce seizures by up to 90% in children with Dravet syndrome, a rare type of epilepsy. It works by targeting the genetic changes that lead to the disease.
The findings come from an early-stage trial aimed at testing the new drug’s safety and determining the best dose (剂量). Researchers also examined whether the treatment could bring neuro-developmental (神经发育的) improvements and enhance quality of life, beyond reducing seizures. Results published on March 4 in The New England Journal of Medicine showed that the new drug can be safely given to children with Dravet syndrome, significantly cutting seizure numbers and improving overall well-being. “We saw improvements in all those areas, especially at higher doses,” said lead researcher Dr. Helen Cross, a professor of childhood epilepsy at University College London.
About half of people with Dravet syndrome die suddenly and prematurely due to the disease. Symptoms arise from problems with interneurons, cells that relay signals in the central nervous system. A specific gene known as SCN1A directs sodium channels, which are essential for interneuron signaling. Most people have two working copies of this gene, but in many with Dravet syndrome, a genetic change stops one of these copies from working properly. The new drug fixes this problem by increasing the amount of protein that the other working copy of the SCN1A gene produces.
A total of 81 children aged 2 to 18 participated in the early-stage study at hospitals in the U.K. and the U.S. Researchers tested several dosage plans — some children received a single treatment, while others got multiple treatments spaced months apart — to find the best treatment plan.
The trial is expected to finish in October 2028. Even with positive results, it will likely be several years before the treatment becomes widely available for children with Dravet syndrome.
12. What is the main function of the new drug?
A. To cure Dravet syndrome. B. To replace traditional medicines.
C. To improve hospital treatment plans. D. To reduce seizures in child patients.
13. How does the author make the results in paragraph 3 convincing?
A. By using numbers.
B. By citing a journal.
C. By quoting a patient.
D. By expressing personal opinions.
14. What can we learn from paragraph 4?
A. SCN1A directly controls signal passing between neurons.
B. Dravet syndrome results from complete SCN1A loss.
C. Interneurons mainly produce signals in the brain.
D. The new drug needs one normal gene copy to work.
15. What is the author’s attitude toward the new drug?
A. Neutral. B. Disappointed. C. Optimistic. D. Doubtful.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. D 15. C

【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了霍尔木兹海峡的地理位置、战略重要性、历史角色及其在全球能源和经济稳定中的关键作用。
【36题详解】
考查形容词最高级。句意:该海峡全长约150公里,最窄处仅有33公里,北部毗邻伊朗,南部为阿曼和阿拉伯联合酋长国。结合语境,此处表示“最狭窄的地方”,需用形容词最高级,narrow的最高级为narrowest。
【37题详解】
考查时态。句意:作为波斯湾油气运输的主要通道,这条海峡承担着全球超20%的海运石油贸易以及很大一部分液化天然气出口业务。句子介绍客观事实,使用一般现在时,主语the strait为单数,谓语动词用第三人称单数形式,carry变为carries。
【38题详解】
考查名词复数。句意:这些能源资源大多运往亚洲国家,包括中国、印度、日本和韩国。these后接可数名词复数,resource为可数名词,复数形式是resources。
【39题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这些能源资源大多运往亚洲国家,包括中国、印度、日本和韩国。此处用过去分词included作后置定语补充说明,逻辑上后面列举的国家是“被包含”在亚洲国家范围内,存在被动逻辑,故用included。
【40题详解】
考查冠词。句意:它也支撑着国际集装箱贸易和全球供应链,在世界经济中发挥着不可替代的作用。固定搭配play a role in表示“在……中起作用”,irreplaceable发音以元音音素开头,用不定冠词an。
【41题详解】

【42题详解】
考查形容词。句意:在日益增长的全球能源需求的推动下,其战略价值大大增加,使其成为世界上最重要的石油运输通道。此处需要形容词性质的词修饰名词短语global energy demand,动词rise的现在分词rising可作形容词,意为“不断增长的”,符合语义。
【43题详解】
考查名词。句意:今天,霍尔木兹海峡仍然塑造着全球能源安全和经济稳定。此处和后文的economic stability并列作动词shapes的宾语,需要用secure的名词形式security,表“安全”,为不可数名词。
【44题详解】
考查介词。句意:(如果)没有这条重要航道,全球能源市场将会遭遇严重混乱,进而对世界各国经济产生深远影响。结合句意,此处表示“没有”,介词Without符合语境,句首单词首字母大写。
【45题详解】
考查主语从句。句意:显而易见的是,霍尔木兹海峡仍然是全球能源稳定的基石。此处为主语从句。从句中缺少主语,指代事物,应用连接代词what引导,意为“……的事情”,句首单词首字母需大写。故填What。

47. 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。
Mr. Whiteside was more than a regular teacher; he belonged to those rare educators who truly loved teaching. His joy spread through his smile as he stood by the geometry blackboard, showing his passion for plane geometry (平面几何). I was a quiet, shy student who rarely spoke up — never causing trouble or drawing attention. Yet in his class, plane geometry unexpectedly became my favorite subject. Through his lively teaching, the clear logic of geometric principles quietly awakened interest in my usually silent heart.
Toward the end of the year, Mr. Whiteside wanted to check our knowledge of geometry and gave us 25 true/ false questions — a nationally standardized test: The test presented each problem with a conclusion shown. If we could prove the result using rules we learnt in math class, the answer was true. If it couldn’t be proved, it was false.
I quickly finished 24 problems. However, number 17 seemed to be a great challenge. I knew deep down that I had the ability to prove its truth, but the exact approach was not immediately obvious. Finally, I spent 30 minutes working on that proof until it was completed. Satisfied, I marked the question true and handed in the completed test.
The following day, when the results came back, my score was an impressive 96, signaling a solid grasp of the subject. However, to my surprise and disappointment, number 17 was marked as incorrect. It was a blow to my confidence, but I couldn’t ignore the efforts I had put into that problem. I clearly remembered that I had racked my brain to cover my page with related lines, figures and formulas until the proof was there at last.
When Mr. Whiteside asked if there were any questions, for the first time, gathering all my courage, I raised my hand and spoke up, “The correct answer to number 17 is true!”
Instead of arguing that this was a nationally standardized test, Mr. Whiteside did the most powerful thing I have ever seen a teacher do.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右:
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Para. 1 Nodding smilingly, he held out his chalk to me in front of the class.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Para.2 From that day in his geometry class, something changed.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
Nodding smilingly, he held out his chalk to me in front of the class. Hesitantly, I walked to the blackboard to show my proof to the class. My hands trembled slightly as I sketched the geometric figures with chalk, but Mr. Whiteside’s reassuring smile gave me the confidence to continue. My voice grew steadier as I connected related lines, cited formulas, and explained each step logically. The classroom fell silent except for the rhythmic tapping of chalk. When I finished, Mr. Whiteside studied the board intently, his eyes tracing every line. Suddenly, he clapped — a sharp, triumphant sound — and declared, “Flawless!” The class erupted in applause.
From that day in his geometry class, something changed. I started participating more in class discussions and became more willing to share my ideas with others. Mr. Whiteside’s trust in my reasoning had ignited a quiet confidence that transcended geometry, transforming my shyness into thoughtful participation. Looking back, I realized true education isn’t about standardized answers, but about nurturing courage to think, question, and prove the truth. Mr. Whiteside didn’t just teach geometry; he taught me how to make silence speak and doubts shine. His impact on my life has been immeasurable, and I will forever be grateful for the lesson he taught me that day.
