I work as the reception manager at my hotel.
A booking came in a few weeks ago with a note attached that a guest would be travelling with her deaf father.This note helped us in preparing for their arrival.As they would be here for a number of days, his daughter wanted to make his trip to Ireland as smooth as possible.
Upon seeing this note and knowing I would be the one to check them in,I decided to learn some very basic sign language. I greeted the guest in my usual fashion,asking for the surname on the booking.Once I heard the name,I immediately realized who was standing in front of me.
I had been learning for two weeks how to say:“Welcome to Ireland.My sign language is terrible,but please,if you need anything during your stay, just let me know and we will help you.”
I smiled at the father and daughter in front of me.Turning to the father,I greeted him in ASL (American Sign Language)and began the bit I had learned for him.His daughter broke down crying and told me I was sweet.But the father just smiled and was so happy.Honestly,seeing his reaction was enough for me.It was absolutely worth the last few weeks of learning basic ASL.
Sadly, I wasn't working the day they checked out, but they left a gift for me, a small box with some chocolates and a book on ASL.Inside was a note saying:“Thank you very much for what you did.My father has been in amazing spirits from the time you checked us in and insisted we get you a gift before we left.You have no idea how much this meant to my father and me, and we can't thank you enough.You've made his trip very special with one simple gesture.”
I cried for a solid five minutes when I came into work the next day and found this gift in my locker.

Jerry is a world-famous mountain climber.He has climbed many high mountains in the world.Starting in 2015, he and his friends spent two years on an adventure(探险)in South America, covering 7,800 miles.He was even named Adventure of the Year by a famous geography magazine in 2018.
Although Jerry had achieved great success, he didn't feel fulfilled.He asked himself, “Is it enough to climb the highest mountains Am I doing something helpful How can I turn my adventures into something that can help the world?”
Jerry learned that scientists need plants, rocks and water samples(样本)from the places far away to do research.But scientists can't get there themselves as such places are hard to reach—only the bravest adventurers can make it.Jerry thought himself could do something to help.He then came up with an idea.He set up a team of top adventures to collect samples for scientists.By studying the samples, scientists could know more about the earth and find ways to protect it.
Recently Jerry and his adventurer friends have discovered a special plant life of Mountain Qomolangma.The samples they brought back have helped scientists how plants live in extreme (极端的) conditions.
For Jerry, this kind of adventure is most satisfying.“Such adventures had made us see life in a different way.Now, being the best climber isn't important for me. What matters is doing something helpful while climbing the mountains.There is still much more we can do.” Jerry said to a newspaper.
28.What does the underlined word “fulfilled” in Paragraph 2 mean?
A.Satisfied. B.Lonely.
C.Patient. D.Worried.

My best friend and I made our first trip to Ireland less than a year ago.I wasn't very excited about it at the very beginning.But my uncle wanted me to go and offered to pay for my trip.Then I did.All of the words“magical,charming or memorable”don't even touch what Ireland is.Our favorites were Kilkenny,Cobh, and Killarney.We did a self-drive tour, which was not as hard as people made it sound.
We stayed in a castle in Dublin for two days, where my ancestors came from.The town we thought we might be bored in was Kilkenny, but we loved every minute we were there.There were so many places to explore and the pictures we took were beautiful.
Our driver was so informative and entertaining that he knew just where to stop for the best photos.And seeing the little village of Cobh and knowing it was the last stop for the Titanic were so touching.We loved the visitor's center there and the little shops.We never got any bad food there.It was so mouth-watering at every stop!And when we stayed in Westmeath and looked out of our window to see the Trim Castle and found some scenes from Brave Heart were filmed there,we were so impressed.Again,more beautiful pictures were taken in that tiny town.
We love the country,the people,the food,and the magic!We would go back very soon.I was so indebted to my uncle who had given me the chance to be here.
The one piece of advice I would offer is to bring your own washcloths.Only one of our hotels supplied them,because people there think they are not environmentally-friendly.I have no words to adequately describe our trip.Go, explore the small villages, eat and enjoy!I still look at my pictures and can't believe I was actually there.
32.How did the writer find Kilkenny?
A.It was not interesting at all.
B.It was also a wonderful place.
C.It needed to open up to visitors more.
D.It was not worth staying at for a long time.
33.What can be inferred from Paragraph 3?
A.Their driver helped a lot during the journey.
B.The Titanic was filmed in Cobh.
C.The writer knew nothing about Brave Heart.
D.The writer visited the Trim Castle alone.
34.What does the underlined word“indebted”most probably mean in Paragraph 4?
A.Angry. B.Amazed.
C.Stressed. D.Thankful.
35.Which statement is not mentioned according to the passage?
A.The writer didn't show great interest in visiting Ireland at first.
B.The trip was more exciting than they expected.
C.They had thought the self-drive tour was very easy.
D.It was the first time for the writer to visit Ireland.

The teacher stopped her storytelling and asked her students,“Guys, guess what it was that she shouted.”
Most students answered.“I hate you!”
After listening to all this reply,the teacher glanced through the whole class again and noticed that there was a boy sitting silently throughout.Then she asked him the same question.
The boy answered,“I believe she would have shouted—Take care of our child.”
Listening to his remarks,the teacher was surprised and asked the boy doubtfully.“Have you heard of this story before?”
Shaking his head, the boy said softly and sadly,“No,I haven't.But that's what my mother said to my father before she died of a deadly disease.”
Moved and feeling sad, the teacher replied.“Your answer is absolutely right!”
Then she continued,“Let's take up the story.The ship sank eventually and the husband went home and brought up their daughter alone. Many years later after the death of the man, their daughter was tidying up all his belongings when she found his diary.In his diary she found that when her parents were on the ship, her mother had already been diagnosed(诊断)with advanced illness and at the critical moment, the father rushed to the only chance of survival.”

I work as the reception manager at my hotel.
A booking came in a few weeks ago with a note attached that a guest would be travelling with her deaf father.This note helped us in preparing for their arrival.As they would be here for a number of days, his daughter wanted to make his trip to Ireland as smooth as possible.
Upon seeing this note and knowing I would be the one to check them in,I decided to learn some very basic sign language. I greeted the guest in my usual fashion,asking for the surname on the booking.Once I heard the name,I immediately realized who was standing in front of me.
I had been learning for two weeks how to say:“Welcome to Ireland.My sign language is terrible,but please,if you need anything during your stay, just let me know and we will help you.”
I smiled at the father and daughter in front of me.Turning to the father,I greeted him in ASL (American Sign Language)and began the bit I had learned for him.His daughter broke down crying and told me I was sweet.But the father just smiled and was so happy.Honestly,seeing his reaction was enough for me.It was absolutely worth the last few weeks of learning basic ASL.
Sadly, I wasn't working the day they checked out, but they left a gift for me, a small box with some chocolates and a book on ASL.Inside was a note saying:“Thank you very much for what you did.My father has been in amazing spirits from the time you checked us in and insisted we get you a gift before we left.You have no idea how much this meant to my father and me, and we can't thank you enough.You've made his trip very special with one simple gesture.”

Jerry is a world-famous mountain climber.He has climbed many high mountains in the world.Starting in 2015, he and his friends spent two years on an adventure(探险)in South America, covering 7,800 miles.He was even named Adventure of the Year by a famous geography magazine in 2018.
Although Jerry had achieved great success, he didn't feel fulfilled.He asked himself, “Is it enough to climb the highest mountains Am I doing something helpful How can I turn my adventures into something that can help the world?”
Jerry learned that scientists need plants, rocks and water samples(样本)from the places far away to do research.But scientists can't get there themselves as such places are hard to reach—only the bravest adventurers can make it.Jerry thought himself could do something to help.He then came up with an idea.He set up a team of top adventures to collect samples for scientists.By studying the samples, scientists could know more about the earth and find ways to protect it.
Recently Jerry and his adventurer friends have discovered a special plant life of Mountain Qomolangma.The samples they brought back have helped scientists how plants live in extreme (极端的) conditions.
For Jerry, this kind of adventure is most satisfying.“Such adventures had made us see life in a different way.Now, being the best climber isn't important for me. What matters is doing something helpful while climbing the mountains.There is still much more we can do.” Jerry said to a newspaper.

My best friend and I made our first trip to Ireland less than a year ago.I wasn't very excited about it at the very beginning.But my uncle wanted me to go and offered to pay for my trip.Then I did.All of the words“magical,charming or memorable”don't even touch what Ireland is.Our favorites were Kilkenny,Cobh, and Killarney.We did a self-drive tour, which was not as hard as people made it sound.
We stayed in a castle in Dublin for two days, where my ancestors came from.The town we thought we might be bored in was Kilkenny, but we loved every minute we were there.There were so many places to explore and the pictures we took were beautiful.
Our driver was so informative and entertaining that he knew just where to stop for the best photos.And seeing the little village of Cobh and knowing it was the last stop for the Titanic were so touching.We loved the visitor's center there and the little shops.We never got any bad food there.It was so mouth-watering at every stop!And when we stayed in Westmeath and looked out of our window to see the Trim Castle and found some scenes from Brave Heart were filmed there,we were so impressed.Again,more beautiful pictures were taken in that tiny town.
We love the country,the people,the food,and the magic!We would go back very soon.I was so indebted to my uncle who had given me the chance to be here.
The one piece of advice I would offer is to bring your own washcloths.Only one of our hotels supplied them,because people there think they are not environmentally-friendly.I have no words to adequately describe our trip.Go, explore the small villages, eat and enjoy!I still look at my pictures and can't believe I was actually there.

The Most Impressive
Chinese City I Have Visited
Of all the cities I have been to,Chengdu is undoubtedly the most impressive one.
I cannot forget every minute I spent there together with my parents last summer.Brought into being about 3,000 years ago,Chengdu is both old and meantime very modern with clean and broad streets.The weather there is mild and people are friendly.Chengdu is really a paradise for foodies like me.I am amazed at their fabulous way of cooking various kinds of delicious food.What is more,Chengdu is very close to many top tourist destinations like Dujiangyan, Jiuzhaigou, etc.
In a word, Chengdu is everything that a beautiful city can be.If I could choose, I wish to be a resident there.

“Once there was a ship travelling on the tough sea and on the ship there was a pair of couple.All of a sudden, the ship met with an accident and the couple had no choice but to run to the lifeboat without delay.After reaching there, they realized that there was space only for one person.At that very moment, the husband pushed his wife behind him and jumped onto the lifeboat himself,leaving his wife standing on the sinking ship, shouting something desperately to her husband,eyes filled with tears.”
The teacher stopped her storytelling and asked her students,“Guys, guess what it was that she shouted.”
Most students answered.“I hate you!”
After listening to all this reply,the teacher glanced through the whole class again and noticed that there was a boy sitting silently throughout.Then she asked him the same question.
The boy answered,“I believe she would have shouted—Take care of our child.”
Listening to his remarks,the teacher was surprised and asked the boy doubtfully.“Have you heard of this story before?”
Shaking his head, the boy said softly and sadly,“No,I haven't.But that's what my mother said to my father before she died of a deadly disease.”
Moved and feeling sad, the teacher replied.“Your answer is absolutely right!”
Then she continued,“Let's take up the story.The ship sank eventually and the husband went home and brought up their daughter alone. Many years later after the death of the man, their daughter was tidying up all his belongings when she found his diary.In his diary she found that when her parents were on the ship, her mother had already been diagnosed(诊断)with advanced illness and at the critical moment, the father rushed to the only chance of survival.”

Paragraph 1:
In his diary, the man mentioned he wished to sink to the ocean with his wife but for their daughter he had to live. Without him,their baby daughter would become an orphan.After drowning himself in sorrow for a short time,he uplifted himself and learned how to raise a baby.Whenever faced with hardships, he would inspire himself with his wife's words—“Take care of our child.”Seeing the little girl grow into a sunny,pretty girl with double love from both parents, the man knew he made it to keep his promise.
Paragraph 2:
The story was finished and the class was silent. Nobody talked or laughed as usual. Instead, it seemed that every student was lost in deep thought, tasting the moving life story.The teacher was sure that the students were reflecting on their replies and that they had understood the moral of the story.Of the good and evil in this world, there are hidden secrets behind them.So we should not really focus on the surface and judge anyone without understanding them first.Put yourself in others' shoes and then you can really understand their behaviour.
