One day, while reading Love Does, whose message of kindness and connection ___3___ him deeply, Miller had his quiet time ___4___ by Shaw’s soft voice, leading him to walk over and ___5___ a conversation. He learned Shaw came to California for his musical dream, but misfortune left him homeless.

Wanted every picture to be perfect, to prove something.” He walked to the bookshelf, pulled out a dusty album (相册) and ___6___ black-and-white photos. They were ordinary, slightly out of focus — our messy kitchen, mom laughing with flour on her nose, me sleeping with the dog. Perfect but ___7___. “You took these?” I asked. “My ‘Home’ series, but never ___8___ any competition,” father answered. I looked at the photos, and gradually something ___9___ inside me.

They reflect not only our personal stories but also the collective ___1___ of those before us. I’ll never forget the moment when I lost a ___2___ as a child. It was a typical childhood experience — one that, in the moment, felt quite ___3___. But as I reflect now, it ___4___ more than just physical growth. It marks the march of time. Teeth, like memories, change and decay (腐烂), but they never truly disappear. They’re a ___5___ of our passage through life, one small bite at a time. This idea of teeth as silent witnesses to personal history is something I’ve ___6___ more deeply as I’ve grown older. My grandmother, Zosia, was a dentist in post-war Poland.

Her work, though often about ___9___ pain, also bore the weight of history. Every tooth she extracted and every cavity (龋洞) she filled, was ___10___ to the struggles, grief and survival of a generation marked by war.

In a ___13___, teeth carry the imprint (印记) of time.

My new rules allowed for basic uses like texting, calling and checking the news when necessary. I ___7___ aimless surfing and online shopping. My No. I rule was simple: Do not ___8___ the phone as a way to get rid of boredom. Just a few ___9___ after that, I’ve read two books. I’ve added 20 minutes of evening exercise every day, and I’ve had more ___10___ for writing tasks in the last week than I had in the last year. Coincidence (巧合) ? Maybe.

But Pooja went after her interest in secret anyway until one day when ___3___ came to her father — he discovered the truth and stopped her playing the sport. “My father didn’t ___4___ me playing other sports but boxing was a(n) ___5___ no-go zone,” Pooja said. It then took six months of continuous efforts from Pooja and her coach Sanjay to ___6___ her father to change his attitude. After that, she devoted herself to training.

Running bored me, biking sounded risky, and the gym seemed too much to handle. Each offered me a reason to ___2___ it, so I did. When I worked in Kenya, I came to realize that people there don’t “___3___” the way I had thought. Instead, they move — with a clear ___4___ in mind. They move to reach a destination. They move to hunt and to tend crops. There is no such thing as a ___5___, but they are working out 24-7. Maybe I could take ___6___ from these people and add meaning to my exercising. So, I launched my ___7___ program: “chicken-cising,” with 15 baby chicks and a book on ___8___ backyard chickens. It turned out that caring for the flightless birds was quite ___9___ — a full-body workout involving bending, squatting (深蹲), weightlifting and running around. One weekend, my e-watch ___10___ as many as 145 squats and 10,506 steps! I ended up in better shape than expected and found extra ___11___ that no gym workout can provide. First, quitting is not a(n) ___12___: You can’t put on your “chicken-cise” clothes, sit for a while, and then simply decide not to ___13___, especially when your feathered friends depend on you to survive. Second, you have unbeatable workout partners, who ___14___ respond to your appearance with encouragement. Bah-Baaaahk! What’s more? Fresh-from-the-hen eggs!

The doctor couldn’t ___4___ his arm and it was cut off below the shoulder. It was a (an) ___5___ time for Enmanuel and his family. Slowly, things got ___6___ for the little boy. He vividly remembers the first time he ___7___ his shoes. Enmanuel was waiting for his mother to do it for him, but she was busy. “I told myself let me try. I was trying. Then I ___8___ it. I was excited like crazy!” Small things became huge ___9___. Months after that, Enmanuel tried basketball, too. His missing arm left him lacking ___10___. Every time he ran, he’d fall down to the ground. The scars piled up. So did his ___11___ gained from experience. No one really ___12___ much from him on the court. Enmanuel admitted to himself that basketball could ___13___ being just a recreation: “I didn’t know I would be who I am right now.” He first dunked at 14 and it wasn’t long before his ___14___ started to grow along with the views on those videos.

Up, up and it ___2___ .With laughter, we wondered where it ___3___. We soon found out. We saw an ambulance headed in the same direction as the ___4___ had traveled. Proceeding ___5___ through the woods and across 12th Street, we then hurried to the ___6___ with unease. A group of about five people stood over a figure face down on the sidewalk. When the rescuers ___7___ the victim, we were ___8___ to discover it was our friend Benny. People around were looking up into a big tree for the ___9___ as to what had hit the ___10___ kid, who now had a lump (肿块) on his forehead about the size of a pebble. At the time, and for years, Arnold and I were ___11___ by guilt and anxiety to ___12___ the whole thing to Benny. But it wasn’t until 25 years later that we had Benny to dinner and ___13___ everything. He touched his forehead, but he didn’t ___14___ us. He thought, and still thinks.

After miles of travel, hours of planning, and ___1___ one of the greatest sights on Earth, I asked my kids about their favorite ___2___ of the trip. To my surprise, they told me the ___3___ was getting a stuffed monkey from the hotel claw machine (抓娃娃机)! At first, it ___4___ me, but then, I understood. We often try to create magical and unforgettable ___5___ for someone we love, like wonderful vacations and perfect birthdays, and ___6___ making every milestone (重大阶段) feel significant. But meaning isn’t something ___7___ by us — it’s something happening in the small, unexpected spaces in between. Psychologists call this the “peak-end rule”, suggesting that people don’t remember an event by ___8___ all the moments, but by recalling the peak moments and the way they ended. The peaks are often the small, ___9___ highs that make a moment feel special. In my case, ___10___ a stuffed monkey after 14 failed attempts is the peak moment. Research shows that ___11___ isn’t found in once-in-a-lifetime moments, but in small, meaningful ones. It’s why a normal night laughing at a funny joke can feel as special as a(n) ___12___ planned celebration. These moments are effortless. And despite their ___13___, they often mean more than the grandest gestures. Instead of worrying about how to make a magical moment, focus on being ___14___ for the moments that already are. Maybe life’s greatest moments aren’t about focusing on perfection, but the ordinary ones that ___15___ us by surprise. 1. A. missing B. detecting C. researching D. admiring 2.

Her husband had died in June. “I was feeling ___1___.” Heginbotham said. “I was trying not to feel down. But I was alone.” To cheer herself up, she decided to work on her holiday cards. That afternoon, she ___2___ to a post office to drop off the cards. When she returned to her car, though, it wouldn’t start. Her heart ___3___. “There was not a peep (滋滋声) out of my car,” she said, “The battery was totally ___4___.” Heginbotham thought of calling roadside ___5___, but it was getting dark and she realized it would likely take a long time for help to arrive on a holiday. So she went back inside the post office. “Does anyone know how to ___6___ a car?” Heginbotham asked. One woman, right away, without ___7___, said, “I do.” The woman, Soumayah Zein, came outside with a friend. When she couldn’t make any ___8___ , Heginbotham told Zein not to worry. Over the next 40 minutes, three people in the parking lot lent a hand. The small crowd gradually got ___9___ as they learned each other’s occupation in the process of helping a stranger on a cold holiday ___10___. Finally, someone ___11___ to jump-start the car. Then Zein offered to follow Heginbotham home to ensure she wasn’t ___12___ if her car’s battery died again. ___13___ the crowd of strangers, Heginbotham realized goodness was about ___14___. As a poet says, “A deed knocks first at thought, and then it knocks at will. It then goes out an act.” And these ___15___ people did that. 1. A. brave B. sad C. bored D. surprised 2.

Typical ___2___ ranged from awkward silence to the joking “Are you sure?” As a child, I would imagine I just made myself look ___3___. I have been a stutterer (口吃者) since I was 7. I even didn’t know its ___4___. When I was young, I ___5___ speech therapy (治疗) techniques, but I was comfortable in my own mind. When I couldn’t avoid speaking, my ___6___ was to replace words with synonyms (同义词). Then I fell in love with science, where precision ___7___ mattered. So, while in graduate school, I restarted speech therapy, and worked on new strategies. I thought I had my stutter under control. However, when I became an assistant professor, facing the inevitable ___8___ of starting a research group, my speech was regressing (退化). I didn’t notice it until one day when I was teaching my class and found I couldn’t say “equilibrium”. A feeling of ___9___ remained, contradictory to my self-image as a capable scientist. Later, ___10___ about a conference introduction, I eventually ___11___ a realization: I would probably never be ___12___ of my stutter. Meanwhile, I wondered whether I could gain some good from this weakness — If radiation could be used to ___13___ cancer, why couldn’t my stutter make me better, too? Now, I reject feelings of shame and instead accept my ___14___. I am not in ___15___, but I can, with proper effort, participate in my work. 1. A. refused B. decided C. planned D. managed 2.

Seeing his once-vibrant spirit ___1___ I was determined to act. I launched a charity run called “Miles for Smiles.” Organizing it was really ___2___: I needed volunteer coordination, community sponsors and most importantly, school ___3___. After carefully drafting a proposal, I ___4___ approached our principal. To my immense relief, he granted authorization without hesitation. The next week, colorful posters filled the hallways and students ___5___ enthusiastically; some even took the initiative to design ___6___ T-shirts for the event. Local businesses stepped up with donations, one generously offering $20,000. On the day of the race, over 300 runners gathered at the park. As the starting whistle blew, I felt a surge of ___7___ — we were making a real difference! The event never failed to ___8___ our expectations. We raised $65,000, but the true victory came later. At the hospital, Leo whispered, “I thought I’d been ___9___. Thank you for reminding me I’m not alone.” His words struck me: beyond the funds, we’d given him ___10___ to fight. Remarkably, Leo’s health began ___11___. Doctors credited his improved mindset. Months later, he participated in our second run — ___12___ to the finish line amid cheers. “You helped me through my darkest ___13___,” he told the crowd. “Now let’s help others!” That day, I realized kindness creates ___14___ that spread far beyond us.

The people celebrated with drums, but cruel rulers banned the instruments, wanting them to work day and night. Not ___1___, the people found old, rusty oil drums by the sea, heated them with fire, and ___2___ them with hammers. “Ping-pong, ping-pong”, the sounds ___3___ music. They played together in the streets, and the rulers couldn’t stop them. I learned to play the Trinidadian steel pan when I was 12. Most kids at my Toronto middle school, like me, were immigrants. Our teacher Pat McNeilly told us the pan was invented in the 1930s from oil drums ___4___ by the US military, with deep roots in African culture. The pan brought me joy and ___5___ my life choices. But public music education — especially about non-Western ___6___, is often at risk of cancellation. This affects lower-income ___7___ neighborhoods, as families can’t afford private lessons. More than a ___8___ of music, it’s silencing an already hushed (低声的), united history. In my twenties, I learned the steel pan was a symbol of colonial (殖民的) ___9___. The pan is an innovation born from a ___10___ to create art even in hard times. On Toronto streets, pan players’ melodies still ___11___ something in me. Music like this should be ___12___ to every student, as it can change lives. Now in my forties, I see how connected our histories are and how our survival depends on embracing this ___13___. The pan’s magic ___14___ listeners and we might find ourselves ___15___ in to its sound like a magnet to metal. 1. A. giving up B. turning up C. calming down D. showing off 2.
