Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
On January 9,2022,it was another cold morning.Temperatures reached lows of 17.6 °F (-8℃).Dusti Talavera,a housewife in the south suburbs of Denver,was washing dishes in her kitchen when she witnessed a frightening scene outside her kitchen window.Glancing out her kitchen window,she noticed a group of young children playing on an icy pond.Moments later,the children fell through the ice.
Dusti’s heart raced as she saw the children fall through the ice,and she immediately grabbed her shoes to run outside.Submerged(淹没)in the freezing water,the children had lost the strength to stay above the surface.Their fingers were only visible as they desperately tried to grab onto the edges of the ice.
Without hesitation,Dusti placed her own life at risk by stepping on the thin,unstable ice to try to reach the three children.As she reached her hands out to grab them,she also broke the ice and fell into the 15-foot deep pond.
Dusti was first able to reach and pull out the 4-year-old girl and 11-year-old boy.She struggled to reach the last child,a 6-year-old girl.After hearing the loud screams for help,the young girl’s 16-year-old cousin suddenly arrived on scene.He threw Dusti a rope,which she used to drag herself and the young girl out of the water.
All three children were pulled out of the icy water as first responders arrived on scene.The 6-year-old girl was not breathing and had no pulse after being submerged in the icy water for two minutes.First responders performed life-saving CPR.Once the girl was able to breathe on her own,the EMTs (emergency medical technicians) rushed her to the hospital.

Many have had the same thought as Shannon St.Onge when looking at the approach of snow on a weather forecast—that they have time to finish their jobs.As the director of finance at the First Nations University of Canada,she had to drive 25 kilometers from her home to the city of Regina to attend an important meeting.
As she was leaving,the winter snow began to fall.Taking a dirt road for better traction(牵引) on her tires,she quickly became lost,with no ability to see the edge of the road from a rolled-down window.After a while she stopped and called 911.
“The operator took my information and told me to wait out the storm as my tank was full and I was warm.I waited almost 14 hours and nobody had called me yet to check in,” she wrote in a Meta post.
“Would the gas tank last until morning What if I was hit by another vehicle What if I didn’t make it home at all ” St.Onge wondered.
Determined to ensure the safest end,she went out in the storm and discovered her location on a road sign,and then found a neighborhood Meta group for the area she was passing through—warning others of her plight through a Google Maps pin.
That was when 80-year-old Andre Bouvier Sr.,a retired rescuer,got a call about St.Onge’s situation.He went out to find her,on foot,since he couldn’t manage to start his tractor.
On the way he found three other stranded(被困) vehicles.He walked the quarter mile there and back,and led the helpless cars one by one to his home.Bouvier let the survivors sleep at his house,where they ate and laughed,and departed the next morning after he had cleaned the driveway.
5.Why did St.Onge take a dirt road
A.She was familiar with it.
B.She could refuel on the road.
C.She took the dirt road to save time.

6.What did the operator advise St.Onge to do
A.Wait out the storm.
B.Find a warm place.
C.Ask Bouvier for help.
D.Write her condition in a Meta post.
7.What does the underlined word “plight” in paragraph 5 mean
A.Wrong turn.
B.Poor sense of direction.
C.Difficult situation.

8.Which of the following can best describe Bouvier

Ⅲ.AcceptOurselves
Good morning,everyone,
It’s a great honor for me to stand here to deliver a speech titled AcceptOurselves.
We need to accept ourselves firstly because it helps us acknowledge our shortcomings.By doing so,we are more likely to learn the lessons when we encounter failures.Meanwhile,accepting ourselves helps us realize our strengths,which is essential for setting practical goals.
To better accept ourselves,we should recognize that no one is perfect and there is no shame in admitting our mistakes.Besides,celebrating what we are good at is necessary.That’s all!Thank you!
