A. exactly B. greatly C. highly D. lately 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：世界正在迅速变化，没有人确切知道未来会给我们带来什么。 exactly确切地；greatly大大地；highly高度地；lately最近。根据“The world is changing rapidly”可知，世界变化迅速，因此没人能“确切地”知道未来会带来什么。应填exactly。 3.

A. Not only; but also B. Both; and C. Either; or D.

A. finishes B. is finished C. will finish D. will be finished 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：——杰克，你的卧室太乱了！——对不起，妈妈。今天下午一旦我的作业被完成，我就会打扫它。 as soon as引导的时间状语从句遵循“主将从现”原则，主句时态是一般将来时，从句需用一般现在时。从句主语my homework与动词finish之间是被动关系，需用被动语态is finished。 8.

A. how could he get to the museum B. that he can get to the museum on foot C. whether he could get to the museum on foot D. how long it takes him to walk to the museum 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：—— 那个外国人刚才对你说了什么？—— 他问我是否能步行到达博物馆。 how could he get to the museum他要怎样才能到达博物馆；that he can get to the museum on foot他可以步行前往博物馆；whether he could get to the museum on foot他是否可以步行前往博物馆；how long it takes him to walk to the museum他步行到博物馆需要花费多长时间。宾语从句需用陈述语序，A项是疑问语序，排除；主句谓语asked是过去式，从句需用相应的过去时态，B项can和D项takes是现在时，排除。故选C。 10. —I’ve been looking forward to the show, but it’s fully booked. —________ I know you’ve waited so long for this show. A. Take it easy. B. It takes time. C. What a shame! D. It doesn’t matter. 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：——我一直期待着这场演出，但它已经预订满了。——真遗憾！我知道你等这场演出等了很久了。 Take it easy放松；It takes time这需要时间；What a shame多可惜；It doesn’t matter没关系。根据上文“it's fully booked”可知对方无法看演出，下文提到“waited so long”，说明说话人对此感到惋惜，“What a shame”符合语境。 三、完形填空（共15小题，每小题1分，计15分） Since receiving the first finished copy of my cookbook a couple of weeks ago, I’ve been thinking about my dad a lot.

We want everything instantly (立刻)—instant coffee, instant noodles, instant information. We get annoyed when a website takes more than two seconds to load or when we have to wait in line for more than five minutes. But patience is actually a valuable skill that can improve many parts of our lives. Learning to wait is difficult, especially for teenagers who are used to getting what they want quickly. But practicing patience can bring surprising benefits. Students who are patient usually perform better on exams because they take their time and avoid careless mistakes. People who are patient in relationships have stronger relationships because they listen more and react less. Even physical health can improve—studies show that impatient people have higher blood pressure and get stress-related illnesses more easily. Patience is especially important when learning new skills. Mastering a musical instrument, a new language, or a sport needs months or even years of practice. Without patience, many people would give up before they see results. The great violinist Itzhak Perlman once said, “If you want to build a violin, you don’t start with the strings—you start with the wood.” This reminds us that good things take time and that we need to trust the process. One way to develop patience is to practice mindfulness. When we focus on what is happening now instead of worrying about the future or regretting the past, we naturally slow down and become more patient. Simple activities like breathing exercises or meditation can help train our minds to be more patient. Patience is not about doing nothing or being passive. It’s about recognizing that some things take time and being willing to wait for them. It’s about believing in the process, even when we can’t see the end result. In a world that values speed, patience is a rare and precious quality. Those who master it will find that it enriches every area of their lives. 29. What does the passage suggest about patience in modern society? A. It is becoming more common. B. It is no longer a valuable skill. C. It is only important for older people. D. It is disappearing as people want results at once. 30. What does the underlined word “mindfulness” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Paying attention to the present. B. Doing things as quickly as possible. C. Worrying about what will happen in the future. D. Remembering past experiences to learn from them. 31. What is Itzhak Perlman trying to tell us by saying “If you want to build a violin, you don’t start with the strings — you start with the wood.”? A. People should not start a task until they are fully prepared. B. We should choose the right materials before starting a task. C. Real progress comes from patience and trusting the process. D. Great achievements depend more on talent than on practice. 32. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Only students and athletes need to develop patience. B. People should avoid modern technology to live a better life. C. Modern technology is the main reason why people are impatient. D. Patience is a valuable skill that can be developed through practice. 【答案】29. D 30. A 31. C 32. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，围绕“耐心”展开论述，指出现代社会中人们追求即时性，耐心正逐渐消失，阐述了耐心在学业、人际关系、健康等方面的益处，说明了耐心在学习新技能中的重要性，介绍了培养耐心的方法，强调耐心是能丰富生活的珍贵品质。 【29题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段“In our modern world, patience seems to be disappearing. We want everything instantly—instant coffee, instant noodles, instant information.”可知，现代社会中人们渴望立刻获得一切，耐心正在消失。 【30题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文章第四段“When we focus on what is happening now instead of worrying about the future or regretting the past, we naturally slow down and become more patient.”可知，这是对前一句的解释，即专注当下正在发生的事，不去担忧未来、悔恨过去，与A表示一致。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第三段“If you want to build a violin, you don’t start with the strings—you start with the wood.”以及后文“This reminds us that good things take time and that we need to trust the process.”可知，这句话以制作小提琴的步骤为例，说明真正的进步源于耐心和对过程的信任。 【32题详解】 主旨大意题。文章开篇点明耐心是能改善生活的宝贵技能，接着介绍了耐心的多方面益处、在技能学习中的重要性，还说明了培养耐心的具体方法，核心是阐述耐心是一种有价值且可以通过练习培养的技能。 C ①Can you tell the difference between real human faces and AI-created ones? If you are given 10 face photos, half real and half AI-made, can you tell which five are real? Do you think it is actually an easy task? According to a new study by UNSW Sydney and the Australian National University, most people think they are better at telling AI-created faces than they really are. The problem is that AI has become so realistic (逼真的). ②The researchers tested 125 people, including 36 “super-recognizers” — people who are very good at remembering faces. All were asked to tell whether a face was real or made by AI. The pictures did not have any clear errors (错误). The average (平均的) score of normal people was only 51%, which is only a little better than random (随机的) guessing. Super-recognizers scored 57%, a little better. Why does this happen? ③A key reason is that people depend on their experience too much. From the scores above, it was clear that people were just sure that they could tell real faces from AI-made ones. Why are people so overconfident? In the past, AI-made faces were easy to tell because of clear errors, like backgrounds that mixed into the hair. But today’s AI has fixed such problems. Those clear errors have become far less common, making faces more real. ④Another reason is that AI technology is improving so fast that it’s getting harder to tell. “You might tell an AI face if you notice that it’s ‘unusually balanced’ or ‘too perfect’,” explained Amy Dawel from the research team. “It’s almost as if they’re too good to be true as faces,” she says. However, AI is now making faces that are more natural and less perfect. So even this method is becoming not as useful as before because AI is getting better. ⑤These findings matter in real life. We can no longer depend on our eyes alone. “For a long time, we’ve believed the people in the photos we saw were real,” says Dr Dunn, “That belief is now being questioned.” The team now wants to study people who are very good at recognizing AI faces and find out what their secret is. 33. How does the writer introduce the topic in Paragraph 1? A. By giving an example. B. By asking questions. C. By listing some numbers D. By sharing a personal story. 34. Why are people so overconfident about telling real faces from AI-created ones according to Paragraphs 3 and 4? A. Because AI-made faces are still too perfect and balanced to be true for them. B. Because they depend on past experience while AI has fixed errors to be natural. C. Because AI-made faces still have clear errors like mixed and unclear backgrounds. D. Because they believe they have the same recognizing ability as “super-recognizers” 35. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 36. What is the best title of the passage? A. Why We Trust Our Eyes Too Much B. “Super-Recognizers” Beat AI C. The Improvement of AI Technology D. AI Faces or Real Human Faces 【答案】33. B 34. B 35. A 36. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是说明文，围绕“人类分辨真人脸与AI生成人脸的能力”展开，介绍了悉尼新南威尔士大学与澳大利亚国立大学的相关研究结果，分析了人们高估自身分辨能力的两点原因，最后说明了该研究的现实意义与后续研究方向。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第1段“Can you tell the difference between real human faces and AI-created ones? If you are given 10 face photos, half real and half AI-made, can you tell which five are real? Do you think it is actually an easy task?”可知，作者通过连续提出问题的方式引入本文话题。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第3段“A key reason is that people depend on their experience too much.”“But today’s AI has fixed such problems. Those clear errors have become far less common, making faces more real.”和第4段“AI is now making faces that are more natural and less perfect”可知，人们对分辨人脸过度自信，是因为依赖过往的判断经验，而如今AI已经修正了以往的明显错误，生成的人脸更逼真自然，旧经验已经不再适用。 【35题详解】 篇章结构题。根据文章第2段“Why does this happen?”，第3段“A key reason is that people depend on their experience too much.”，第4段“Another reason is that AI technology is improving so fast that it’s getting harder to tell.”，第5段“These findings matter in real life.”可推知全文脉络：第1段用提问引入话题，点明人们高估自身分辨AI人脸能力的核心现象；第2段介绍研究的过程与结果，同时引出原因分析的问题，起承上启下作用；第3、4段从两个并列的角度解释原因；第5段说明研究的现实意义与后续计划。该结构与选项A的图示一致。 【36题详解】 最佳标题题。根据文章第1段“Can you tell the difference between real human faces and AI-created ones?”可知，全文围绕“分辨AI生成人脸与真人脸”这一核心话题展开，介绍了分辨难度、人们高估自身能力的原因及相关研究的意义，“AI Faces or Real Human Faces”最能概括全文核心内容，适合作为标题。 D (Ginger was a horse, who easily got angry from birth. She had suffered very bad treatment from her early owners. When she arrived at Birtwick Park, she often bit people because she had never known real kindness.) One day, Ginger shared her painful past with Black Beauty. “When I was young, I was separated from my mother. I never had a kind master to look after me,” she said. “When men trained me, they trapped me in a corner. They held my nose so hard that I could hardly breathe. They pulled my mouth open and put a sharp bit (马嚼子) inside. They beat me non-stop. No one gave me a chance to figure out what they wanted.” She went on, “Later I was sold to a fashionable gentleman. They put a tight check-rein on me. It made my neck ache for hours. The sharp bit hurt my tongue and jaw. I was filled with anger all the time. I bit people simply because they treated me so badly.” At Birtwick Park, John and James treated Ginger with great patience. They never shouted at her or hit her. Week after week, they spoke to her in soft voices and provided her with good food and clean water. At first, Ginger still kept her guard up. She found it hard to trust human beings. She would step back whenever someone drew near. Slowly, her anger faded away little by little. “I do believe Ginger is starting to like me,” James said one day. “She will become as good-natured as Black Beauty one day,” John replied. “Kindness is all she needs, poor thing. We must give her enough time to open her heart.” ——Adapted from Black Beauty by Anna Sewell 37. What happened to Ginger when men trained her? A. They let her stay with her mother. B.

What is the RIGHT order of the following events? ① Ginger’s anger slowly disappeared and she felt closer to James. ② Ginger was sold to a fashionable gentleman with a tight check-rein. ③ John and James treated Ginger with great patience and kindness. ④ Ginger told Black Beauty about her terrible training experience. A. ④②③① B. ②③①④ C. ②④③① D. ①③②④ 40. What can we infer (推断) from the passage? A. Ginger was born to get angry easily. B. Ginger never thought humans were good. C. John finally planned to send Ginger away. D. Kindness and patience may save a hurt animal. 【答案】37. B 38. A 39. C 40. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是记叙文，改编自安娜·塞维尔的《黑骏马》，讲述了自幼遭受虐待、性格易怒的马Ginger来到Birtwick Park后，在John和James的耐心与善意照料下，逐渐放下戒备、消解怒气，慢慢变得温和信任的故事。 【37题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第4段“When men trained me, they trapped me in a corner. They held my nose so hard that I could hardly breathe. They pulled my mouth open and put a sharp bit inside. They beat me non-stop.”可知，人们训练Ginger时会使劲按住她的鼻子，还不停地打她。 【38题详解】 细节理解题。梳理文中Ginger的情感变化：早年她长期遭受虐待，始终充满愤怒（angry）；刚到Birtwick Park时，她对人保持戒备，难以信任人类（distrustful）；在持续的善意对待下，她的怒气慢慢消退，性格变得温和（gentle）；最后她开始亲近James，逐渐信任人类（trusting）。情感变化顺序为angry→distrustful→gentle→trusting。 【39题详解】 细节理解题。梳理事件发生的时间顺序：首先Ginger在来到Birtwick Park之前，被卖给一位时髦的绅士，被戴上紧绷的缰绳（事件②）；来到庄园后，她和Black Beauty分享过往，讲述了自己糟糕的训练经历（事件④）；之后John和James用极大的耐心和善意对待她（事件③）；随着时间推移，Ginger的怒气慢慢消退，和James更亲近（事件①）。正确顺序为②④③①。 【40题详解】 推理判断题。根据全文内容，曾被伤害、易怒多疑的Ginger，在John和James的耐心与善意照料下逐渐放下戒备、变得温和，由此可推断出，善意和耐心可以拯救受伤的动物。 B. 阅读下面短文，从所给选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺，结构完整，其中有一项是多余选项。 There’s a Chinese saying that goes, “If you want happiness for an hour, take a nap (小睡). If you want happiness for a day, go fishing. If you want happiness for a year, become wealthy by chance. ____41____” Helping by giving may be the secret to a happy and healthy life. The more you give, the more you’ll gain. The key is to find a method that works for you. ____42____ Find your love. ____43____ You might feel bad if you are doing something you don’t like. You will feel great when you put your love into giving. Give your time. The gift of time is often more valuable to the receiver, and more satisfying to the giver than money. People don’t all have the same amount (数量) of money, but everyone has the same amount of time. ____44____ It can be just a few hours a day, or a few days a year. Be active. Take every chance to serve your community. You are free to choose what you want to do. Make full use of services that match your values. ____45____ You may easily get used to selfless giving. But when you give, make sure to keep your own needs in mind. You yourself matter, too! All in all, by proper giving, you can gain purpose, meaning and happiness—all of the things that people look for in life but are so hard to find. A. Don’t forget about yourself. B. Here is some advice that you can take. C. You can give some of this time to help others. D. If you want happiness for a lifetime, help others. E. But sometimes you are not sure where money is going.

A 【解析】 【导语】本文引用中国谚语引出观点——奉献给予是幸福健康生活的秘诀，并给出几条建议：奉献要发自热爱、可以付出自己的时间、积极服务社区，同时奉献时不要忽略自身需求；恰当的给予能让我们找到人生的目标、意义与幸福。 【41题详解】 根据前文关于幸福时长的排比句（一小时、一天、一年），此处应补充关于“一生”的描述，且需引出帮助他人的主题，选项D“If you want happiness for a lifetime, help others.”承接排比，写一辈子的幸福。 【42题详解】 前文提到找到适合的方法，后文开始列举具体建议，此处需要过渡句来引出下文，选项B“Here is some advice that you can take.”承上启下，符合逻辑。 【43题详解】 本段小标题为“找到你的爱”，后文提到做不喜欢的事会感觉糟糕，说明付出应源于爱而非命令，选项F“Your giving should not be from orders but come out of love.”契合段意。 【44题详解】 本段主题是“付出时间”，前文提到每个人都有时间，此处应说明可以将时间用于助人，选项C“You can give some of this time to help others.”衔接自然。 【45题详解】 后文强调给予时要记住自己的需求，自己也很重要，此处应填入提醒关注自己的句子，选项A“Don’t forget about yourself.”概括了本段主旨。 C. 阅读与回答问题。 This year, China’s math world is shining brightly—thanks to an amazing woman named Wang Hong. Wang Hong was born in 1991 in Guilin. Her parents were both middle school teachers. She showed a special talent for math at a very young age. By just five years old, she had already finished first-grade math and moved directly to second grade. But talent doesn’t always make life easy. In middle school, Wang’s grades were not great at first. Still, she didn’t give up. She studied very hard and later became one of the top ten students in her grade. At 16, she entered Peking University to learn more about math. In 2011, Wang went to France to study. There, she felt a little lost. She even stopped studying math for half a year and tried architecture (建筑学). Then she remembered how much she loved math. She realized she had doubted herself because her classmates were all smart. So she returned to math with more confidence. She kept working hard and later got her PhD (博士学位) at MIT (麻省理工学院). In February this year, Wang did something amazing—she solved a 100-year-old math problem called the Kakeya conjecture (挂谷猜想). Mathematicians around the world were surprised and excited! Now, Wang is a professor at two famous universities. With her talent, hard work, and love for math, she is living a future even bigger than her dreams. When a reporter asked Wang Hong to share some advice with junior high school students struggling with math, she smiled and replied gently, “__________________”. 回答下面5个问题，每题答案不超过6个词。 46.

You don’t need to go far—walking around your neighborhood works too.”可知，此处强调“规则简单”，simple的比较级为simpler。 【68题详解】 句意：出发前，选择一种颜色，然后带着寻找该颜色所有事物的目的去散步。根据“finding everything in that color”可知，寻找所选择的颜色的所有事物是这种散步的目的，结合首字母p及下文“purposeful walking”可知，此处用with the purpose of表示“带着……的目的”。 【69题详解】 句意：他们的大脑忙于寻找颜色，而不是一次又一次地检查作业或考试。instead of是介词短语，意为“而不是”，后接动词-ing形式。根据首字母c及语境“homework”可知，此处用check homework表示“检查作业”，check的动名词为checking。 【70题详解】 句意：陈女士发现自己因加班而处于很大压力之下。find oneself+状态，表示“发现自己处于……”。主语是Ms. Chen，对应的反身代词是herself。 【71题详解】 句意：在她的第一次色彩漫步中，她选择了绿色。文章讲述过去发生的事情，时态为一般过去时。根据首字母c及“after she began her search for green”可知，她选择了绿色，choose“选择”的过去式为chose。 【72题详解】 句意：令她惊讶的是，在她开始寻找绿色后，不舒服的感觉很快就消失了。修饰动词短语went away，需用副词。根据首字母s可知，此处可用soon表示“很快”。 【73题详解】 句意：一名大学生利用色彩漫步度过了期末考试周。根据“the final-exam week”可知，此处可用动词短语get through表示“度过、熬过”。 【74题详解】 句意：学校里到处都有隐藏的美，然而她从未注意到它们。前后句意存在转折关系，即“到处都有美”，却“从未注意”。根据首字母y可知，yet表示“然而”。 【75题详解】 句意：科学研究也表明色彩漫步确实有助于我们关注当下并减轻压力。Scientific修饰名词作定语，谓语动词shows是单数，说明主语是不可数名词。根据首字母r可知，此处用scientific research表示“科学研究”。 六、书面表达（共1题，计20分） 76. 成长路上难免有起落，但总有一些人像一束光照亮我们，帮助我们战胜困难、成就更好的自己。学校英文报以“The Person Who Lights up My Way”为主题开展征文活动，请根据提示，用英语写一篇短文投稿。 ● Who is this person, and what do you admire about him or her? ● How did he or she help you when you were in trouble?

Instead of blaming me, he encouraged me to believe in myself. What’s more, he spent his free time helping me find better ways to learn English.

Tom, a Grade Nine student in the UK. B. Li Hong, a Grade Nine student in China. C. Mary, a Grade Three student in the UK. D. Chen Long, a Grade Three student in China. 27. Which of the following can be put in “ ▲ ” A. Signs of Anxiety B. Opinions about Anxiety C. Causes of Anxiety D. Symptoms of Anxiety 28. In which part of a newspaper can you read the passage? A. Health B. Culture C. Travel D. Science B In our modern world, patience seems to be disappearing. We want everything instantly (立刻)—instant coffee, instant noodles, instant information. We get annoyed when a website takes more than two seconds to load or when we have to wait in line for more than five minutes. But patience is actually a valuable skill that can improve many parts of our lives. Learning to wait is difficult, especially for teenagers who are used to getting what they want quickly. But practicing patience can bring surprising benefits. Students who are patient usually perform better on exams because they take their time and avoid careless mistakes. People who are patient in relationships have stronger relationships because they listen more and react less. Even physical health can improve—studies show that impatient people have higher blood pressure and get stress-related illnesses more easily. Patience is especially important when learning new skills. Mastering a musical instrument, a new language, or a sport needs months or even years of practice. Without patience, many people would give up before they see results. The great violinist Itzhak Perlman once said, “If you want to build a violin, you don’t start with the strings—you start with the wood.” This reminds us that good things take time and that we need to trust the process. One way to develop patience is to practice mindfulness. When we focus on what is happening now instead of worrying about the future or regretting the past, we naturally slow down and become more patient. Simple activities like breathing exercises or meditation can help train our minds to be more patient. Patience is not about doing nothing or being passive. It’s about recognizing that some things take time and being willing to wait for them. It’s about believing in the process, even when we can’t see the end result. In a world that values speed, patience is a rare and precious quality. Those who master it will find that it enriches every area of their lives. 29. What does the passage suggest about patience in modern society? A. It is becoming more common. B. It is no longer a valuable skill. C. It is only important for older people. D. It is disappearing as people want results at once. 30. What does the underlined word “mindfulness” in Paragraph 4 probably mean? A. Paying attention to the present. B. Doing things as quickly as possible. C. Worrying about what will happen in the future. D. Remembering past experiences to learn from them. 31. What is Itzhak Perlman trying to tell us by saying “If you want to build a violin, you don’t start with the strings — you start with the wood.”? A. People should not start a task until they are fully prepared. B. We should choose the right materials before starting a task. C. Real progress comes from patience and trusting the process. D. Great achievements depend more on talent than on practice. 32. What is the main idea of the passage? A. Only students and athletes need to develop patience. B. People should avoid modern technology to live a better life. C. Modern technology is the main reason why people are impatient. D. Patience is a valuable skill that can be developed through practice. C ①Can you tell the difference between real human faces and AI-created ones? If you are given 10 face photos, half real and half AI-made, can you tell which five are real? Do you think it is actually an easy task? According to a new study by UNSW Sydney and the Australian National University, most people think they are better at telling AI-created faces than they really are. The problem is that AI has become so realistic (逼真的). ②The researchers tested 125 people, including 36 “super-recognizers” — people who are very good at remembering faces. All were asked to tell whether a face was real or made by AI. The pictures did not have any clear errors (错误). The average (平均的) score of normal people was only 51%, which is only a little better than random (随机的) guessing. Super-recognizers scored 57%, a little better. Why does this happen? ③A key reason is that people depend on their experience too much. From the scores above, it was clear that people were just sure that they could tell real faces from AI-made ones. Why are people so overconfident? In the past, AI-made faces were easy to tell because of clear errors, like backgrounds that mixed into the hair. But today’s AI has fixed such problems. Those clear errors have become far less common, making faces more real. ④Another reason is that AI technology is improving so fast that it’s getting harder to tell. “You might tell an AI face if you notice that it’s ‘unusually balanced’ or ‘too perfect’,” explained Amy Dawel from the research team. “It’s almost as if they’re too good to be true as faces,” she says. However, AI is now making faces that are more natural and less perfect. So even this method is becoming not as useful as before because AI is getting better. ⑤These findings matter in real life. We can no longer depend on our eyes alone. “For a long time, we’ve believed the people in the photos we saw were real,” says Dr Dunn, “That belief is now being questioned.” The team now wants to study people who are very good at recognizing AI faces and find out what their secret is. 33. How does the writer introduce the topic in Paragraph 1? A. By giving an example. B. By asking questions. C. By listing some numbers D. By sharing a personal story. 34. Why are people so overconfident about telling real faces from AI-created ones according to Paragraphs 3 and 4? A. Because AI-made faces are still too perfect and balanced to be true for them. B. Because they depend on past experience while AI has fixed errors to be natural. C. Because AI-made faces still have clear errors like mixed and unclear backgrounds. D. Because they believe they have the same recognizing ability as “super-recognizers” 35. Which of the following shows the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 36. What is the best title of the passage? A. Why We Trust Our Eyes Too Much B. “Super-Recognizers” Beat AI C. The Improvement of AI Technology D. AI Faces or Real Human Faces D (Ginger was a horse, who easily got angry from birth. She had suffered very bad treatment from her early owners. When she arrived at Birtwick Park, she often bit people because she had never known real kindness.) One day, Ginger shared her painful past with Black Beauty. “When I was young, I was separated from my mother. I never had a kind master to look after me,” she said. “When men trained me, they trapped me in a corner. They held my nose so hard that I could hardly breathe. They pulled my mouth open and put a sharp bit (马嚼子) inside. They beat me non-stop. No one gave me a chance to figure out what they wanted.” She went on, “Later I was sold to a fashionable gentleman. They put a tight check-rein on me. It made my neck ache for hours. The sharp bit hurt my tongue and jaw. I was filled with anger all the time. I bit people simply because they treated me so badly.” At Birtwick Park, John and James treated Ginger with great patience. They never shouted at her or hit her. Week after week, they spoke to her in soft voices and provided her with good food and clean water. At first, Ginger still kept her guard up. She found it hard to trust human beings. She would step back whenever someone drew near. Slowly, her anger faded away little by little. “I do believe Ginger is starting to like me,” James said one day. “She will become as good-natured as Black Beauty one day,” John replied. “Kindness is all she needs, poor thing. We must give her enough time to open her heart.” ——Adapted from Black Beauty by Anna Sewell 37. What happened to Ginger when men trained her? A. They let her stay with her mother. B.

Wang Hong was born in 1991 in Guilin. Her parents were both middle school teachers. She showed a special talent for math at a very young age. By just five years old, she had already finished first-grade math and moved directly to second grade. But talent doesn’t always make life easy. In middle school, Wang’s grades were not great at first. Still, she didn’t give up. She studied very hard and later became one of the top ten students in her grade. At 16, she entered Peking University to learn more about math. In 2011, Wang went to France to study. There, she felt a little lost. She even stopped studying math for half a year and tried architecture (建筑学). Then she remembered how much she loved math. She realized she had doubted herself because her classmates were all smart. So she returned to math with more confidence. She kept working hard and later got her PhD (博士学位) at MIT (麻省理工学院). In February this year, Wang did something amazing—she solved a 100-year-old math problem called the Kakeya conjecture (挂谷猜想). Mathematicians around the world were surprised and excited! Now, Wang is a professor at two famous universities. With her talent, hard work, and love for math, she is living a future even bigger than her dreams.
