当我走近农场时,迎接我的是烧烤的辛辣气味,催促我走得更快。我们完全沉浸在宁静的气氛中,享受着精致的美食,谈论着我们的有趣经历,唱着歌直到日落。是我们说再见的时候了,于是我们一起去了停车场。

Bartek Ostalowski lost both his arms in a terrible accident in 2006, but that wasn't enough to kill his dream of one day becoming a professional race-car driver.Finding himself armless at just 20 years old and faced with the difficult task of learning to drive a car on a race circuit (赛车道) must have been quite the shock for Bartek, but he gathered the courage and the drive to push on.In three years, he became a master of driving a race-car with his feet.Today, Bartek Ostalowski is the world's only professional sporting driver who drives using his feet.
In order to deal with his physical limitations, Bartek transformed (改装) his race-car according to his needs, adding a new engine, and stronger transmission (变速器).The ambitious Polish driver uses his right foot to control the pedals, while moving on with his left one.The race-car is controlled with the shoulder.
“After my accident, I was looking for a solution.I asked myself if I wanted to race again what would I need to do?” Bartek told the reporter of Business Insider.“I heard about someone in Poland who, like me, had no arms, but he drove a car on a daily basis with no problem.After meeting him, my dream and passion for motor sports were alive and strong, and I made the decision to return to racing one day.”
In 2019, Ostalowski finished in ninth place out of 50 drivers in the Polish Drift Championship, one of the most competitive championship series in all of Europe, and the year before that, he won the international Czech Drift Series, beating dozens of other professional sporting drivers.
“Of course, I encourage other people with disabilities to get involved in motor sports.It's a beautiful passion and I think a great form of recovery too.So make your dreams come true,” the Polish driver said.

African countries have retrieved some historic heritage, which directly reflects(反映)the important development of human society, from European countries.Recently, Germany signed a deal for the return of hundreds of valuable artworks from the Kingdom of Dahomey in the 19th century, in what is today Benin.
But many artifacts(手工艺品)are still unluckily missing and some are on their way back.One such object is an eight-legged seat from the old kingdom in Uganda.The important artifact now sits at a museum thousands of kilometers away in Britain.The wooden seat is housed at the University of Oxford.It is one of at least 279 objects there taken from the Bunyoro-Kitara Kingdom.
Apollo John Rwamparo is a deputy prime minister of Uganda.He really values the country's cultural heritage.He requested the British to return the artifacts.Uganda officials are preparing to meet with the University of Cambridge in Britain about the return of such historical artifacts.The school has an unknown number of artifacts from Africa.Through many efforts, an artifact was recently to its home.
The British Museum holds a large collection of artifacts from Africa.Rose Mwanja said Uganda's commission had been trying hard on it and believed it could have some good effects.She is Uganda's commissioner for museums.She added she could start with those that are more willing to cooperate.
Many of the artifacts from Africa cannot even be found.That led to an organisation started by late Congolese art collector Sindika Dokolo.The organisation offers to buy African art from collections in foreign countries.By 2020, when Dokolo died, his group had successfully recovered 15 items.However, for African governments, the recovery of artifacts remains a struggle and will take much time.

Two car manufacturing companies in the US have been developing self-driving taxis, sometimes called “robotaxis”.Before August, their cars have had a human in the driver's seat, ready to take over if there was a problem, and they could only drive in specific areas, at certain times.In early August, they weren't required to have safety drivers in their cars.They are programmed to do everything on their own, including obeying the rules of the road, following speed limits, and avoiding people and other cars.
The move was a big step for self-driving cars, and many people were excited about the change.But almost immediately, there were problems coming along.A self-driving car crashed into a fire truck, causing a person seriously injured.Later, another one failed to work in the middle of a crossroads, causing a traffic jam.As a result, the two companies were told to take half of its robotaxis off the roads.
In one recent example, a self-driving car got stuck in wet concrete (混凝土) because it didn't know that wet concrete was different from a road.In another case, a robotaxi killed a dog.The self-driving system knew the dog was there, but didn't know how to avoid it.Most people believe that self-driving cars aren't ready for the real world.Those who are upset about self-driving cars have found an unusual way to be against them: putting traffic cones (锥形交通路标) on the hoods (引擎盖) of robotaxis, which can confuse the cars' driving system and leave them unable to move.
In spite of the problems, both companies are planning to expand their self-driving car service to other cities.One of them says its driverless system will soon be able to work in any city, on any kind of vehicle.Though the quality of self-driving cars is improving, it's likely to be a while before most people view them as safe.

What to Do When You Fail in Life
Most people are afraid of failure.The truth is that everyone, including all successful people, has ever failed time after time and will fail again.
Learn from it
No matter how hard you try to avoid it, failure will happen.Having a “no-fear” attitude towards failure does not mean you should expect to fail, but accept it when it happens. 17 Failure makes us rethink, reconsider, and find new ways and strategies to achieve our goals.Through failure, we will get to know ourselves better.
Stop fearing it
18 You are supposed to push yourself to go to the limits.When you have a no-fear attitude and accept failure willingly, your determination can be made the best use of.
Let go of your self-worth
When your self-worth is in charge, you will not learn from the mistakes you have made, be open to other people's views or see the situations clearly. 19 We need to learn, evaluate, and listen to other people if we want to see what needs to change in order to succeed.
Improve your mood and cheer up again
We all feel upset after having failed, which is natural, human, and unavoidable.But how we respond to our failures is what decides our road to success.One way of improving your mood is listing the things you are grateful for at the moment, which will strengthen your positive emotions.
A.There is value in failure.
B.The only thing we have to fear is fear itself.
C.The ordinary people experience failure, too.
D.It always tends to get in the way of you and your success.
E.In order to reach your personal best, you don't need to fear failure.
F.So do not be afraid of failure, which is a part of your road to success.
G.Reading stories of successful people is another way to help us cheer up and move on.

16.F [根据前文“Most people are afraid of failure.The truth is that everyone, including all successful people, has ever failed time after time and will fail again.”和后文小标题“Learn from it”可知,此处是指不要害怕失败,所以选项F“所以不要害怕失败,这是你通往成功之路的一部分”切合文意。故选F。]

18.E [根据小标题“Stop fearing it”可知,此处是指不要恐惧失败,所以选项E“为了达到你个人的最佳状态,你不必害怕失败”切合文意。故选E。]
19.D [根据前文“When your self-worth is in charge, you will not learn from the mistakes you have made, be open to other people's views or see the situations clearly.”可知,此处是指以自我价值为主导会阻碍成功,所以选项D“它总是会倾向阻碍你和你的成功”切合文意。故选D。]
20.G [根据前文“One way of improving your mood is listing the things you are grateful for at the moment, which will strengthen your positive emotions.”可知,此处是指改善情绪的另一种方法,所以选项G“阅读成功人士的故事是另一种帮助我们振作起来继续前进的方式”切合文意。故选G。]

A Visit to a New Farmer Community
Yesterday afternoon, our school arranged for Senior One students to visit a new farmer community.
We were warmly welcomed by the villagers when we arrived.They showed us around their homes, which are newly-built modern buildings equipped with furniture and electrical equipment, and the living environment there is very comfortable.Then we visited the vegetable farm, where the farmers were growing various green vegetables.
The activity has left a deep impression on us and deepened our understanding of our country.

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。
Driving on the mountain roads where I live can be both a great pleasure and an adventure at times.Yet, you should always look out for holes, deer, skunks and squirrels crossing the road, as well as fallen trees and broken rocks that have rolled down the side of the hill.
I came upon one of those rocks just the other day.I saw a car turn around it and the truck just ahead of me run over it.I turned too and then quickly pulled over to a wide place.I knew a rock that size would break parts of a low riding car like mine if the driver didn't see it in time to move.I walked over and picked up the huge stone.It must have weighed 50 pounds but I tried my best,and finally I got it into the ditch(沟)and walked smiling back to my car.
The happening reminded me of an old story I had read once.In a faraway land a king had placed a huge rock on the road leading to his palace.Many nobles walked by and around it complaining(抱怨)that the king didn't keep the road up better.Finally,a poor farmer arrived pulling a cart of vegetables.He stopped and rolled the rock off the road with all his strength.Then he saw under it was a bag of gold coins that the king had left for the one who cleared the path for those who came after.
Now while there wasn't any bag of treasure under the rock I moved, my heart did feel a little more golden as I walked back to my car.Maybe the real reward is the love we feel,the good we do and the kindness we share.Then an idea came to my mind: why not make the road safer to drive on

[参考范文]
I told my friends what I thought. They were all amazed by the inspirational idea and applauded.Actions speak louder than words.Immediately, we began to make concrete plans about it.One said that we should plant flags where there were holes to remind drivers to be careful.As if inspired, another said excitedly that we could also put billboards on places where animals, like deer, skunks and squirrels, would always come and go.I smiled with relief and put forward that maybe it was also a good idea that we should find all the fallen stones and remove them as we drove along the road.
Now we are trying our best to help drivers and keep the road safe.All of us are busy planting flags, putting billboards and removing stones and we are all satisfied with what we have done.When I'm removing a stone, a driver gives me a thumbs-up, happily saying, “Your hearts are like gold.” I'm thrilled, thinking of the king again.Suddenly, another good idea hit me—maybe I can take some pictures and post them on the social media to appeal for more attention.
