【解析】
【原文】M: Hello, everybody. I’m Reid. Today I will discuss the effect of sleep on school students. Many teenagers are getting little sleep and there are concerns that this could have a serious long-term effect on their body health and spirits, but we aren’t sure about that now. However, one study has clearly shown that high school students getting low grades also get on average one hour less sleep than students getting high grades. Then why aren’t teenagers getting enough sleep I think they spend too much time on TV and computer games. So how can teenagers fall asleep easier Well, don’t have any soft drinks or any drink that contain chocolate before sleeping. Reading a book or listening to a story, rather than music, should help your brain relax.
It would be better for schools to stay open longer so that pupils can do homework before they get home. Another thing that some schools have tried successfully is to begin the school day half an hour later and end the school day half an hour later, and I really recommend that.

Love is one of life’s greatest motivators. That is exactly what inspired Zack to design a fully electric off-road wheelchair for his girlfriend suffering from paralysis (瘫痪).
Like most wheelchair-users, Cambry has always been restricted to the pavement for most of her adult life. Aside from that, using a wheelchair across long distances makes her shoulders ache. Zack Nelson, her boyfriend, wanted to give her the ability to explore more places conveniently, so he made a special wheelchair for her, which would make it possible.
Zack began by combining two electric bikes and installing a seat in the centre. It worked! Cambry experienced a whole new level of freedom using her new “ride”, and she couldn’t be more grateful to Zack for coming up with it. Fast forward to a year later, Cambry and Zack tied the knot. They also began mass-production of the special wheelchair. Throughout that time, they improved the original design to make it a more reliable off-roader.
While similar vehicles already exist in the market, they said they’re either slow or cost as much as a car. Cambry and Zack wanted to build something quick, light, super long-range, and affordable at the same time. However, coming up with that kind of electric off-roader wasn’t easy.
The toughest challenge when developing the special wheelchair is the price. “We wanted to create something that is affordable for everyone. Finding quality components, and a simple enough design at the cheapest price possibly took quite a bit of time,” said Zack. “But I think we have something now that everyone will be able to enjoy, at a fraction (少量) of the cost of other ‘off-road wheelchairs’ currently on the market.” Another great thing about the vehicle is that it’s silent. Its rider will have no difficulty chatting with their companion while using it. Cambry and Zack are very happy with the fully-electric machine, and they hope that other wheelchair-users will also benefit from it.
24. What was Zack’s motivation to invent a fully electric wheelchair
A. The market demands. B. His interest in invention.
C. His love for his girlfriend. D. The request of his girlfriend.
25. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. Walking on the pavement with ease.
B. The special wheelchair made by Zack.
C. The ability to explore more places conveniently.
D. Cambry’s desire to reduce the pain of her shoulders.
26. What does Zack think of the existing wheelchairs in the market
A. They’re light. B. They’re expensive.
C. They’re ugly. D. They’re small.
27. What can we learn about Zack from the last paragraph
A. He has an ambition to introduce the wheelchair to others.
B. He is satisfied with people’s reaction to the wheelchair.
C. He couldn’t afford the components of the wheelchair.
D. He spent many years designing the wheelchair.
【答案】24. C 25. C 26. B 27. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章介绍的是爱是生活中最大的动力之一,正是这种爱激发了Zack为瘫痪女友设计了全电动越野轮椅的故事。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Love is one of life’s greatest motivators. That is exactly what inspired Zack to design a fully electric off-road wheelchair for his girlfriend suffering from paralysis (瘫痪).(爱是人生最大的动力之一。这正是扎克为瘫痪女友设计全电动越野轮椅的灵感来源。)”可知,Zack设计全电动越野轮椅的动力是他对女友的爱。故选C。
【25题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段中“Zack Nelson, her boyfriend, wanted to give her the ability to explore more places conveniently, so he made a special wheelchair for her, (Zack Nelson,她的男朋友,希望给她提供更方便的探索地方的能力,所以他为她制作了一把特殊的轮椅。)”可知,此处Zack希望给她提供更方便的探索地方的能力,为了实现这个可能才制作了一把特殊轮椅。故划线词it指代的内容是“方便地探索更多地方的能力。”故选C。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“While similar vehicles already exist in the market, they said they’re either slow or cost as much as a car.(虽然市场上已经有类似的轮椅,但他们说,这些轮椅要么速度慢,要么价格和汽车一样高。)”可知,当前市场上类似的轮椅,要么速度慢,要么价格高。故目前市场上的轮椅价格高。故选B。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Cambry and Zack are very happy with the fully-electric machine, and they hope that other wheelchair-users will also benefit from it.( Cambry和Zack对这台全电动机器非常满意,他们希望其他轮椅使用者也能从中受益。)”可知,Zack对这台全电动机器非常满意,他们希望其他轮椅使用者也能从中受益。,所以推断他有自己的追求目标——将他设计的轮椅推广给其他的人。故选A。
C
A standard school day for the average American youth takes place indoors. But for some young students who attend forest school, most of their preschool or kindergarten education occurs outdoors in forests, parks, or other wild sites. At these schools, educators allow their students’ curiosity to guide the curriculum (全部课程) and rely on nature to instill environmental values.
Forest schools vary in the amount of time children spend outdoors, what they study, and how they’re assessed, but all forest schools put nature first. They have the same standards for child development as traditional schools do, but their methods are rooted in exploring and conserving the natural world.
Khavin Debbs, Executive Director at Tiny Trees Preschool in Seattle. Washington, says one of the benefits of a forest school is how it can adapt to students’ unique needs. High-energy students can run and climb. Shy students can sit alone to observe an earthworm with a magnifying glass. At Tiny Trees, in addition to learning with art materials, books, and toys, students engage in a wide range of play-based learning, including going on hikes, observing wildlife, and identifying plants and animal tracks. They might cook over a camp stove, or harvest berries to make jam. The students’ hands-on activities help them grasp scientific concepts that might otherwise seem abstract. “They’ve seen a tree’s leaves turn different colors in fall, and then seen that same tree bloom again in spring. All those things really do help them understand.” said Debbs.
The notion of children spending time outdoors to learn and play is nothing new. The modern-day forest school concept originated in Denmark in the 1950s, and then spread through Europe and abroad. In the United States, forest schools are currently on the rise. A national survey done in 2017 found 250 forest schools operating in 43 states—100 more than the year before, with 80 percent of them maintaining waiting lists.
But even though they’re increasing in popularity, forest schools aren’t yet reflective of the cultural, linguistic, or cognitive diversity of American youth. Thus, schools that want to be more inclusive must be purposeful in increasing their influence and making their programs more accessible.
28. What does the underlined word “instill” in paragraph 1 mean
A. Represent. B. Design. C. Maintain. D. Develop.
29. What is the key feature of forest schools
A. The free optional curriculum. B. The nature-centred philosophy.
C. The novel standard for students. D. The evaluation of teachers’ values.
30. What is the author’s purpose in writing paragraph 3
A. To highlight advantages of forest schools.
B. To show what teachers had for students.
C. To compare the differences in students’ grades.
D. To draw a conclusion from the teachers’ skills.
31. What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph
A. A limitation period of forest schools.
B. A solution to increasing popularity.
C. A wish to participate in a forest school.
D. A suggestion for the further development of forest schools.
【答案】28. D 29. B 30. A 31. D

As the electric vehicle (EV) increases, drivers may start to find queues adding to their more time at charging stations. One potential solution to this is to swap out the run-down battery pack for a new one, and a company has just revealed that it’s managed to do so in just five minutes.
Since the company launched its first-generation battery swap station back in 2021, the company reports that stations have been built across the San Francisco Bay Area to support fleet (车队) partners in testing the quick-swap solution. The company has also been in consultation with a delivery services to get a better understanding of their needs.
“When working with these fleets, we continuously heard that despite efforts to electrify fleets, drivers could spend up to 10-12 hours at a charging station.” said the company in a blog post. “There is a lack of reliable EV charging for city residents who don’t have access to garages and the option of overnight charging, and our new solution seeks to fix that.”
The latest station is designed to support EVs of all sizes—from small passenger cars to mid-sized delivery vans. EVs fitted with modular batteries could roll onto the platform and have its spent modules automatically removed and replaced with fully charged ones within 10 minutes. The removed battery units are then recharged, ready for the next customer.
The shoebox-sized battery modules have been developed to improve their safety, and can be fit for any modern EV. The new stations have been redesigned for easier building at a site in just three days, and have also been made more durable to suit different local conditions as the company expands. They can also be remotely monitored 24 hours for enhanced safety and customer support.
The company is now calling for more EV manufacturers, fleet operators and municipalities to join them in the quest to electrify.
32. What is the problem that EV drivers are worried about
A. Driving EVs takes up their too much time.
B. They have to wait long to charge their EVs.
C. They have to buy new batteries to replace the old ones.
D. EVs are in bad quality despite increasing development.
33. Why does the company work with partners
A. To build charging stations.
B. To deliver the last-mile goods.
C. To obtain some related information.
D. To give a helping hand in fixing vehicles.
34. What is the feature of modular batteries
A. Time-saving and safe. B. Universal and pricey.
C. Heavy and complicated. D. Convenient and durable.
35. Which can be the best title for the text
A. A Company Is Developing a New and Safe EV
B. A Company Strengthens the Cooperation with Its Partners
C. A Company Has Expanded Its Charging Stations Across the World
D. A Company Makes the Replacement of EV Batteries Safe and Fast
【答案】32. B 33. C 34. A 35. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍的是一家公司建立了可以快速更换电动汽车电池的充电站,这种充电站解决了长期以来困扰电脑汽车司机的问题。

细节理解题。根据第一段中“As the electric vehicle (EV) increases, drivers may start to find queues adding to their more time at charging stations. (随着电动汽车(EV)的增加,司机们可能会发现在充电站排队的时间越来越长。)”可知,随着电动汽车的数量增加,驾驶者可能会发现他们在充电站排队等候的时间越来越长。故选B。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Since the company launched its first-generation battery swap station back in 2021, the company reports that stations have been built across the San Francisco Bay Area to support fleet (车队) partners in testing the quick-swap solution. The company has also been in consultation with a delivery services to get a better understanding of their needs.(自该公司于2021年推出第一代电池交换站以来,该公司报告称,该站点已在旧金山湾区建立,以支持车队合作伙伴测试快速交换解决方案。该公司也一直在与一家快递服务公司协商,以更好地了解他们的需求。)”可知,公司与合作伙伴合作的原因是因为更好的了解他们的需求即获取一些相关信息。故选C。
【34题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中““When working with these fleets, we continuously heard that despite efforts to electrify fleets, drivers could spend up to 10-12 hours at a charging station.” (“在与这些车队合作时,我们不断听说,尽管车队努力实现电动化,但司机在充电站的时间可能长达10-12小时。)”以及“There is a lack of reliable EV charging for city residents who don’t have access to garages and the option of overnight charging, and our new solution seeks to fix that.(对于没有车库和夜间充电选择的城市居民来说,缺乏可靠的电动汽车充电,我们的新解决方案旨在解决这个问题。)”以及第五段中“The latest station is designed to support EVs of all sizes—from small passenger cars to mid-sized delivery vans. EVs fitted with modular batteries could roll onto the platform and have its spent modules automatically removed and replaced with fully charged ones within 10 minutes.(最新的充电站旨在支持各种尺寸的电动汽车,从小型乘用车到中型货车。配备模块化电池的电动汽车可以在平台上滚动,在10分钟内自动移除耗尽的模块并更换为充满电的模块。)”可知,以往电动汽车充电站中司机可能需要等待长达10-12小时,缺乏可靠的电动汽车充电,但是在该公司新建立的充电站中10分钟内自动移除耗尽的模块并更换为充满电的模块。由此推断模块化电池的特点是省时和安全。故选A。

Summer is the swimming season. As fun as a swimming pool can be, it’s also a major safety risk if you don’t take the appropriate precautions (预防措施). Here are some tips for a safe swimming season.
____36____ If children or inexperienced swimmers are in the pool, it’s very important to have close supervision. Supervisors should be an adult who can swim well and knows how to save others in a swimming pool. They mustn’t be distracted with their cellphone, or a conversation with another adult. They must take that role very seriously. ____37____. More children aged 1 to 4 die from drowning than any other causes of death.
Keep a variety of flotation devices in and around the pool like a life jacket plus pool noodles or a paddle board. That helps when accidents happen. ____38____.
Supervisors should also learn basic CPR.
The steps are:
1. Place the person on his back and gently lift his chin and tilt (倾斜) his head back.
2. Place one hand over the other, place them over the patient’s breastbone and administer 30 chest presses.
3. Pinch their nose and place your mouth tightly over their mouth and administer two short breaths
Start again until the patient starts breathing.

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍中国传统乐器——古琴。
【56题详解】
考查时态。句意:它已经存在了3000多年,代表了中国最重要的独奏乐器传统。根据语境和后面的时间状语 for over 3,000 years可知,此处要用现在完成时,且It(Guqin)与exist为主动关系。故填has existed。
【57题详解】
考查非谓语。句意:早期文献记载并经考古发现证实,这种古老的乐器与中国的知识史是分不开的。分析句子可知,describe和其逻辑主语this ancient instrument 是动宾关系,所以此处要用过去分词作状语,且句首时首字母应大写。故填Described。
【58题详解】
考查介词。句意:早期文献记载并经考古发现证实,这种古老的乐器与中国的知识史是分不开的。分析句子可知,这里考查be inseparable from..意为“与……不可分离的”,为固定搭配。故填from。
【59题详解】

【60题详解】
考查非谓语。句意:此外,古琴与书法、绘画和围棋并列为中国古代所期望掌握的四大艺术之一。分析句子可知,这里考查expect sb to do sth意为“期待某人做某事”,为固定搭配。故填to master。
【61题详解】
考查时态语态。句意:它的音乐在2008年被列为非物质文化遗产,这有助于释放许多人学习这种古老乐器的热情。分析句子可知,主语和谓语是动宾关系,所以此处要用被动语态;本句描述的是过去的事,所以此处要用一般过去时的被动语态。故填was listed。
【62题详解】
考查冠词。句意:它的音乐在2008年被列为非物质文化遗产,这有助于释放许多人学习这种古老乐器的热情。根据句意可知,此处指的是古琴这种乐器,是特指,所以要用定冠词。故填the。
【63题详解】
考查数词。句意:简从五十多岁开始演奏这种乐器,并开始了在中国各地寻找收藏品的旅程。in his fifties意为“在他50多岁的时候”,为固定搭配。故填fifties。
【64题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:他甚至发现一些仪器完全损坏,这让他深感痛苦。分析句子可知,本句是非限制性定语从句,先行词some of the instruments,为物,在从句中作主语,所以此处填which。故填which。

【答案】A Debate on Shopping Online
Last Friday, our English class held a debate on Shopping Online. Here are the main points.
The affirmatives argued that online shopping has advantages like saving time and money, as well as a wide variety of products available. It is also convenient, allowing people to shop anytime and having items delivered to their doorstep.
The negatives, however, believed that online shopping poses risks, such as fraud and a lack of security. They also mentioned the problem of impulse buying and the inability to physically check products before purchasing.
In my view, both sides have valid points. Online shopping offers convenience, but precautions must be taken to protect against fraud.

I didn’t know the lady, but I saw her often around town with her two small children. She appeared to be shy, always looking down, trying not to make eye contact. She often wore the same clothes, and so did her children. I felt her discomfort when I saw her at the supermarket checkout. She reminded me of myself years ago. We had to go through a tough time.
Back then, I couldn’t afford a new winter coat for my daughter, and I didn’t know what I was going to do. Luckily, my three younger children could wear hand-me-downs. One night, I said to myself in my heart that I wished someone to offer me help. I did it for the first time since my husband’s unemployment.
The next morning, a neighbour came into the place where I worked. “I know you must feel unbelievable, This morning, I had an overwhelming (无法抗拒的) feeling that you needed this,” she whispered. She insisted on giving me twenty dollars. My eyes started to tear as she continued, “I also have a box of clothes in my car that I was going to donate. Please take what you need.” It was really a shock of getting her help. Was this the response to my word the night before
Going through the large box of clothes, I found several winter items for my children, including a dark purple jacket that looked like it would fit my daughter. Although grateful, I felt embarrassed. The woman must have sensed my discomfort. She raised my chin so I could look at her. “We all need help at one time or another, “she said. “One day, you’ll be the one helping someone in need.”
I thanked her and promised I would always try to pay it forward.

【答案】Looking at the lady at the supermarket checkout, I knew perhaps it was the proper time. I went back home and packed some clothes in a bag with other donations and headed to the supermarket. Standing in the supermarket checkout and looking at the woman who was so similar to my former self, I felt compelled to say, “Hi.” She smiled. Without hesitation, I repeated words similar to what the kind neighbour had said to me many years ago at my workplace. “I have a bag of clothes in my car that I was going to donate. Would you like to take a look ”
To my surprise, she said, “Yes.” Together, we walked to my car. She didn’t appear as embarrassed as I had been worried about. I felt a bit relieved. When we reached the car, she went through the clothes and picked up a purple coat with three brightly painted lemons. “My daughter will love this coat. Thank you.” She smiled as her eyes lit up. My heart was full as I thought about what a blessing that coat had been. And how it would make another little girl happy.

Love is one of life’s greatest motivators. That is exactly what inspired Zack to design a fully electric off-road wheelchair for his girlfriend suffering from paralysis (瘫痪).
Like most wheelchair-users, Cambry has always been restricted to the pavement for most of her adult life. Aside from that, using a wheelchair across long distances makes her shoulders ache. Zack Nelson, her boyfriend, wanted to give her the ability to explore more places conveniently, so he made a special wheelchair for her, which would make it possible.
Zack began by combining two electric bikes and installing a seat in the centre. It worked! Cambry experienced a whole new level of freedom using her new “ride”, and she couldn’t be more grateful to Zack for coming up with it. Fast forward to a year later, Cambry and Zack tied the knot. They also began mass-production of the special wheelchair. Throughout that time, they improved the original design to make it a more reliable off-roader.
While similar vehicles already exist in the market, they said they’re either slow or cost as much as a car. Cambry and Zack wanted to build something quick, light, super long-range, and affordable at the same time. However, coming up with that kind of electric off-roader wasn’t easy.
The toughest challenge when developing the special wheelchair is the price. “We wanted to create something that is affordable for everyone. Finding quality components, and a simple enough design at the cheapest price possibly took quite a bit of time,” said Zack. “But I think we have something now that everyone will be able to enjoy, at a fraction (少量) of the cost of other ‘off-road wheelchairs’ currently on the market.” Another great thing about the vehicle is that it’s silent. Its rider will have no difficulty chatting with their companion while using it. Cambry and Zack are very happy with the fully-electric machine, and they hope that other wheelchair-users will also benefit from it.
24. What was Zack’s motivation to invent a fully electric wheelchair
A. The market demands. B. His interest in invention.
C. His love for his girlfriend. D. The request of his girlfriend.
25. What does the underlined word “it” in paragraph 2 refer to
A. Walking on the pavement with ease.
B. The special wheelchair made by Zack.
C. The ability to explore more places conveniently.
D. Cambry’s desire to reduce the pain of her shoulders.
26. What does Zack think of the existing wheelchairs in the market
A. They’re light. B. They’re expensive.
C. They’re ugly. D. They’re small.
27. What can we learn about Zack from the last paragraph
A. He has an ambition to introduce the wheelchair to others.
B. He is satisfied with people’s reaction to the wheelchair.
C. He couldn’t afford the components of the wheelchair.
D. He spent many years designing the wheelchair.
C
A standard school day for the average American youth takes place indoors. But for some young students who attend forest school, most of their preschool or kindergarten education occurs outdoors in forests, parks, or other wild sites. At these schools, educators allow their students’ curiosity to guide the curriculum (全部课程) and rely on nature to instill environmental values.
Forest schools vary in the amount of time children spend outdoors, what they study, and how they’re assessed, but all forest schools put nature first. They have the same standards for child development as traditional schools do, but their methods are rooted in exploring and conserving the natural world.
Khavin Debbs, Executive Director at Tiny Trees Preschool in Seattle. Washington, says one of the benefits of a forest school is how it can adapt to students’ unique needs. High-energy students can run and climb. Shy students can sit alone to observe an earthworm with a magnifying glass. At Tiny Trees, in addition to learning with art materials, books, and toys, students engage in a wide range of play-based learning, including going on hikes, observing wildlife, and identifying plants and animal tracks. They might cook over a camp stove, or harvest berries to make jam. The students’ hands-on activities help them grasp scientific concepts that might otherwise seem abstract. “They’ve seen a tree’s leaves turn different colors in fall, and then seen that same tree bloom again in spring. All those things really do help them understand.” said Debbs.
The notion of children spending time outdoors to learn and play is nothing new. The modern-day forest school concept originated in Denmark in the 1950s, and then spread through Europe and abroad. In the United States, forest schools are currently on the rise. A national survey done in 2017 found 250 forest schools operating in 43 states—100 more than the year before, with 80 percent of them maintaining waiting lists.
But even though they’re increasing in popularity, forest schools aren’t yet reflective of the cultural, linguistic, or cognitive diversity of American youth. Thus, schools that want to be more inclusive must be purposeful in increasing their influence and making their programs more accessible.
28. What does the underlined word “instill” in paragraph 1 mean
A. Represent. B. Design. C. Maintain. D. Develop.
29. What is the key feature of forest schools
A. The free optional curriculum. B. The nature-centred philosophy.
C. The novel standard for students. D. The evaluation of teachers’ values.
30. What is the author’s purpose in writing paragraph 3
A. To highlight advantages of forest schools.
B. To show what teachers had for students.
C. To compare the differences in students’ grades.
D. To draw a conclusion from the teachers’ skills.
31. What does the author want to convey in the last paragraph
A. A limitation period of forest schools.
B. A solution to increasing popularity.
C. A wish to participate in a forest school.
D. A suggestion for the further development of forest schools.
D
As the electric vehicle (EV) increases, drivers may start to find queues adding to their more time at charging stations. One potential solution to this is to swap out the run-down battery pack for a new one, and a company has just revealed that it’s managed to do so in just five minutes.
Since the company launched its first-generation battery swap station back in 2021, the company reports that stations have been built across the San Francisco Bay Area to support fleet (车队) partners in testing the quick-swap solution. The company has also been in consultation with a delivery services to get a better understanding of their needs.
“When working with these fleets, we continuously heard that despite efforts to electrify fleets, drivers could spend up to 10-12 hours at a charging station.” said the company in a blog post. “There is a lack of reliable EV charging for city residents who don’t have access to garages and the option of overnight charging, and our new solution seeks to fix that.”
The latest station is designed to support EVs of all sizes—from small passenger cars to mid-sized delivery vans. EVs fitted with modular batteries could roll onto the platform and have its spent modules automatically removed and replaced with fully charged ones within 10 minutes. The removed battery units are then recharged, ready for the next customer.
The shoebox-sized battery modules have been developed to improve their safety, and can be fit for any modern EV. The new stations have been redesigned for easier building at a site in just three days, and have also been made more durable to suit different local conditions as the company expands. They can also be remotely monitored 24 hours for enhanced safety and customer support.
The company is now calling for more EV manufacturers, fleet operators and municipalities to join them in the quest to electrify.
32. What is the problem that EV drivers are worried about
A. Driving EVs takes up their too much time.
B. They have to wait long to charge their EVs.
C. They have to buy new batteries to replace the old ones.
D. EVs are in bad quality despite increasing development.
33. Why does the company work with partners
A. To build charging stations.
B. To deliver the last-mile goods.
C. To obtain some related information.
D. To give a helping hand in fixing vehicles.
34. What is the feature of modular batteries
A. Time-saving and safe. B. Universal and pricey.
C. Heavy and complicated. D. Convenient and durable.
35. Which can be the best title for the text
A. A Company Is Developing a New and Safe EV
B. A Company Strengthens the Cooperation with Its Partners
C. A Company Has Expanded Its Charging Stations Across the World
D. A Company Makes the Replacement of EV Batteries Safe and Fast

67. 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。
I didn’t know the lady, but I saw her often around town with her two small children. She appeared to be shy, always looking down, trying not to make eye contact. She often wore the same clothes, and so did her children. I felt her discomfort when I saw her at the supermarket checkout. She reminded me of myself years ago. We had to go through a tough time.
Back then, I couldn’t afford a new winter coat for my daughter, and I didn’t know what I was going to do. Luckily, my three younger children could wear hand-me-downs. One night, I said to myself in my heart that I wished someone to offer me help. I did it for the first time since my husband’s unemployment.
The next morning, a neighbour came into the place where I worked. “I know you must feel unbelievable, This morning, I had an overwhelming (无法抗拒的) feeling that you needed this,” she whispered. She insisted on giving me twenty dollars. My eyes started to tear as she continued, “I also have a box of clothes in my car that I was going to donate. Please take what you need.” It was really a shock of getting her help. Was this the response to my word the night before
Going through the large box of clothes, I found several winter items for my children, including a dark purple jacket that looked like it would fit my daughter. Although grateful, I felt embarrassed. The woman must have sensed my discomfort. She raised my chin so I could look at her. “We all need help at one time or another, “she said. “One day, you’ll be the one helping someone in need.”
I thanked her and promised I would always try to pay it forward.
