As a work-from-home mother of three, I've spent my life avoiding uncomfortable situations. One fall morning, I was on a routine walk with a friend, when I mentioned that I felt trapped by my commitment to familiarity but didn't know how to be brave and branch out.
“Starting today, do something small every day that terrifies you,” she suggested. Knowing that something in my life needed to shift, I gave myself perm ii on to explore new and frightening chances.
My profession as a heath coach centered on work with individual clients in my home office. When asked to do a presentation on healthy eating for the school board, I recognized that as a signal not to shy away from growth, learning and overcoming my limitations. My wise friend's advice became my life guideline. I felt confident and capable for the first time in my life.
This newfound bravery was challenged one day when my husband presented me with the possibility of working in Turkey. For years, he'd dreamed of moving our family overseas to pursue a different career. Held back by fear, never before would I have considered taking this giant leap of faith. But I was capable of anything.
I knew the moment I said it that we’d move to Turkey. Every day leading up to the arriving trucks was filled with opportunities to practice hugging fear. Six months later, we unpacked our bags in our small city apartment and showed our children the view from their new bedroom window. One year into our life abroad, in a country where I don’t speak the language, I get to try and fail, feel fear and be brave every day.
Accepting and seeking opportunities that scare me has taught me that, regardless of the comfort of my surroundings,
I’ll be okay. Without fear. I’d still be at my regular drive-through asking for the sandwich instead of sitting in a café telling the waiter to “surprise me”.
24. What was the cause of the fear the author felt?
A. She lived a hard and unpredictable life.
B. Her days were packed with small worries.
C. Everything was familiar and safe for her.
D. She suffered when pursuing her career.
25. What had the author's husband dreamed of doing?
A. Starting a different career abroad.
B. Helping the author out of her fear.
C. Having his children study abroad.
D. Doing remote work as a health coach.
26. How did the author react to her husband's suggestion?
A. She turned to her friend for some advice.
B. She felt capable of living alone at home.
C. She refused the offer for fear of a change.
D. She took it as a way of self-improvement.
27. What lesson does the author draw from her experience?
A. Comfort zone is a block to one's progress.
B. It's beneficial to step into the world of fear.
C. It takes great skills to overcome one's fear.
D. Knowing the language is a must living abroad.
C
The painting “Portrait(肖像) of Omai”was finished in 1774 and was sold to John Magnier in 2001. When he wants to take the painting out of the country, the government believes it's important for Britain and stops him doing so. Yet British buyers can't raise the money needed to get it from Mr. Magnier before the deadline of a ban one exporting it. A solution may now involve Getty Museum in Los Angeles; it could be a model for o her treasured artworks too expensive for the nation to buy.
Most countries have export restrictions on their cultural treasures. Many European counts a low the government to step in and buy any work offered for sale. Britain operates a system called Waverley standards, balancing the aims of keeping important pieces and protecting the rights of their owners. Valuable pieces are evaluated at monthly meetings of a committee of owners, dealers and art historians. The most important works are kept in Britain temporarily while institutions at home try to raise the funds to buy them.
Mr. Magnier paid £10.3 million for “Portrait of Omai”. Now he wants £50 million for it, a fair value. The National Portrait Gallery (NPG) in London has been trying to raise the cash, but only half the money had been raised. The NPG's answer is to buy the painting together with the Getty Museum, spending half its time in London and the other half in California. In 2015 a similar arrangement was agreed between France and the Netherlands to share ownership of a pair of important portraits by Rembrandt.
The Waverley standards were meant to keep Brit in's cultural treasures at home. But protecting an artwork for the nation for some time maybe all that can be achieved. Closed for three years for repair, the NPG hopes it will open its doors again with “Portrait of Omai” as its glory.
28. What can we learn about Magnier from Para. 1?
A. He painted a portrait of an Englishman. B. He wanted to take the painting abroad.
C. He illegally took hold of the paining. D. He solved the problem with a portrait.
29. What do the Waverley standards do to keep cultural treasures at home?
A. They set aside time for home purchase.
B. They checkout annual export licences.
C. They decide a ban on the rare treasures.
D. They advertise the sales of the treasures.
30. What will be the final solution to “Portrait of Omai”?
A. Britain takes it for permanent ownership.
B. Mr. Magnier takes it abroad after the deadline.
C. Britain works with France to share its ownership.
D. NPG and the Getty Museum share its ownership.
31. Which of the following can be the best title for the text?
A. The Cooperation of World's Galleries B. The Protection of Galleries’ Paintings
C. A New Way to Save Art for the Nation D. A Clever Way to Stop Loss of Paintings
D
Scientists are working to understand how and where so many birds make annual migrations(迁徙). In some cases. what they have uncovered is more surprising than they could have predicted.
Assessing the progress and its effects is the task of science writer Rebecca Heisman's first book Flight Paths, providing a look into the drama behind some biggest discoveries in migration research.
In its nine chapters, Flight Paths soars through the history of migration research, from counting passing birds against the moon in the 1950s to the recent use of wearable trackers.
Most people are now familiar with the idea that some birds travel thousands of kilometres seasonally for climate, food or mates, but the scientists first explaining the phenomenon were often laughed at. Advances in technology are finally allowing research to confirm or debunk those early words.
In the 1960s, scientist Ian Nisbet proposed that blackpoll warblers(黑顶白颊林莺) were taking a far more impressive autumn journey than anyone had thought. As Heisman reports, Nisbet believed they were making the long fight from eastern Canada to South American countries such as Colombia and Brazil. Some thought it strange: how could a bird weighing just 12 grams fly so far over the Atlantic Ocean in days of nonstop flying? Five decades later, researchers confirmed Nisbet’s opinion with a device that uses sunlight to work out a bird's place at a given time.
Understanding how, why and where birds migrate is more than solving a mystery. It's critical for future conservation efforts. Migratory species are especially at risk because they rely on a network of healthy, connected habitats. In 2019, a study found that North America alone had lost around a quarter of its birdlife since 1970 when they were migrating, which amounts to around 3 billion individual birds. “If we know where birds are going, we'll have the information we need to save them,” says Heisman.
Flight Paths is a vital wake-up call to birders, ornithological(鸟类学的) societies and governments.
32. What can we know about the book Flight Paths?
A. It has some wrong predictions about bird migrations.
B. It contains findings that may surprise bird scientists.
C. It looks into the scientific findings about bird migrations.
D. It has many effects needing scientific confirmation.
33. Which of the following best explains “debunk” underlined in paragraph 4?
A. Support a discovery.
B. Prove a correct opinion.
C. Draw attention to a topic.
D. Expose the false statement.
34. What was Ian Nisbet's opinion about blackpoll warblers?
A. They made along migration journey.
B. They could fly for long without as top.
C. They were the smallest migratory birds.
D. They used sunlight to locate their places.
35. What did a 2019 study find?
A. Knowing where birds go will help us protect them.
B. Many birds have died on migration because of risks.
C. Most of bird species in North America have died out.
D. Heisman's book has drawn attention to protecting birds.

I believe in the power of old-fashioned letters. Studies have shown that writing a letter has superior benefits to a text or email. 36 It forces you to concentrate and think of interesting and positive things that have happened in your life.

37 Is a pleasant surprise to receive a letter from a friend or relative, knowing that someone cares about you, thus enriching a relationship to grow healthily.

Then I forgot about this until I suddenly got a reply from him. “How lovely to hear from you,” he said, and went on to tell me all about his life. 38
He turned out to be the most fascinating man. When he died, my mum was sad, as they had not been in touch for years. 39 The last one was written a few days before he had died. My mum comforted herself read ng them. Although they hadn’t been in touch, I had grown closet ohm by writing to him. 40 It's something I keep up to this day.
So, I’d encourage you to put pen to paper and see where it leads. What have you got to lose?
A. I went upstairs and took out a box of letters.
B. There's a real power in writing handwritten letters.
C. There's something unique and special about texts or emails.
D. I cleared her house and found hundreds of letters and cards.
E. On the other hand, receiving a letter is such a lovely surprise.

Public places have been difficult for my family since Myles was dag nosed with autism(自闭症) at two. He had quickly turned into a silent child frozen in a world completely inaccessible to us. One time, I got up the courage to take Myles out to Golden Corral without my husband. Lots of people and noise caused overload for him. First came the screaming, and then more noises. With my nerves stretched thin, I noticed a sweet old lady coming my way.
“Can you keep him quiet?” she snapped. “I'm trying to eat!”
I held my tongue out of respect for my elders. I apologized and left with as much dignity as I could. I had to escape the weight of the eyes around. After that, I built a wall around my heart to protect my heart from other people's opinions about my family. I still had the great privilege of raising this very special child. It didn't matter what anyone thought, but I had lost something. I stopped looking for the opportunity to help them understand. I assumed the worst about them.
So when I was back at Golden Corral with my son, who started shouting and hitting the table again, I looked up at the middle-aged woman approaching. Her face was calm as she assessed the situation. If she complained about my son's behavior, I was prepared to fight back.
“I hope you don't mind me asking,” she said. “But does your son have autism?”
“Yeah,” I replied to the lady, who was waiting patiently.
“Well, I raised a child with autism. My name is Pam,” she said. “If you ever need any help, please call me. I have connection with a lot of people like you and me.” I looked at the hands he extended, holding a slip of paper with her name and number on it.
“Thank you,” I managed to whisper.
“Call me,” she said, smiling at me, and saving a special, knowing smile for Myles before walking away.
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。
Later I called her, and she became as close as family.

Of course, there are moments when we simply felt hopeless.

Historic England is an organisation that advises the government on how to look after traditional buildings and places. It has chosen 60 of the best photos from the public for an outdoor exhibition about everyday life called Picturing High Streets. The pictures range from portraits of people to photos of cafes and shops. The exhibition is touring England, starting in Derby from 17 March to 9 April. The photos will be shown in different ways, such as in shop windows and on big advertising boards.
In London, the show will also feature photos by Jamil, who has been working with primary school pupils. Jamil told The Week Junior that a great high street “should be a place where people feel welcome and connected to their local community”. Jamil says that Petticoat Lane, where he took many of his photos, has these important ingredients.

Dear Henry，
To raise our awareness of the excellent qualities that make a scientist, and to build up our standard of oral English, our school will launch an English speech contest with the theme “What we should learn from scientists”. It will be held at the lecture hall of our school, beginning at8a.m.and lasting about three hours. I'm writing to extend my sincere invitation to you to join me in the contest if you're available at the time. You'll definitely feel amazed at the good English our candidates speak and what depth they go to explore what we should learn from the scientists.
Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua

Later I called her, and she became as close as family. The moment we met at her home, she greeted me with a sweet smile on her face. I was struck by her patience when dealing with Myles and her kid, who was also suffering from autism. Together we sat in the kitchen, sometimes out in the open, talking and laughing happily. On sunny days, the four of us would hike or go camping in the open. Meanwhile, the two kids seemed to enjoy the company of each other, and things began to improve for them.
Of course, there are moments when we simply felt hopeless. Usually at this time, we would hug each other, saying encouraging words to each other. Pam managed to contact some doctors and experts on autism, and we shared experiences and our vision of the future, believing that things would be all right as long as we stayed positive. Luckily, with our common efforts, the two kids are improving significantly. And I begin to look forward to each day filled with hope.
