Chloe Covell is professional rugby (橄榄球) player Luke Covell’s daughter. Despite her famous father’s footy past, rugby is never on Chloe’s list. Then at six years old, she began to dream about sports. “The X Games was on TV. I saw American skateboarder Nyjah Huston skating. Seeing the tricks he was doing was exciting. It just hit me. I knew that was what I wanted to do,” Chloe explained.
Picking up an old skateboard in her backyard, Covell started skating. Just six years after that, she has become one of Australia’s best skateboarding talents, winning various awards and titles. “I’m so excited the sport has been included in the Olympic Games,” Chloe said, setting qualifying for the 2024 Summer Olympics as her present goal.
While her classmates are completing their schoolwork at home, Chloe tries to catch up on her studies between flights to Brazil, Italy, Japan and the US. At the first stop of the 2023 Street League Skateboarding tour in Chicago, Covell experienced her first taste of frustration (挫折) after she was unable to finish a trick successfully. But already she seemed to have moved on from the experience. “Every time I complete a competition, I look back on it to see what I could have changed or done better,” Covell said. “I did get a little discouraged in Chicago, but I’ve learnt from that now.”
The teenage girl has rapidly built a big following online, having more than 46,000 Instagram followers. She also signed with a range of sponsors, including Nike. And she’s glad to get to know many other players. “I admire Rayssa Leal very much. We played a video game called ‘Skate Together’ when we first met at the X Games in Japan,” Chloe said. She also took a picture with celebrated skateboarder Nyjah Huston. “I was so scared when I started competing at the age of eight or nine. But it’s getting easier now since I know a lot more people. They’re all funny, nice and amazing skaters. They push me to be better,” Chloe shared.
4. What inspired Chloe Covell to become a skateboarder
A. An old skateboard from her backyard. B. Her familiarity with competitive sports.
C. Her father’s great achievements in rugby. D. An amazing skateboarding match on TV.
5. What can we infer about Chloe Covell from paragraph 2
A. She is on the fast track to success.
B. She values hard work more than talent.
C. She helped get skateboarding into the Olympic Games.
D. She has got the chance to compete in the 2024 Olympics.
6. What does Chloe’s statement about her experience in Chicago show
A. She will focus more on her studies. B. She is willing to learn from failure.
C. She is still inexperienced as a beginner. D. She faces great pressure in competitions.

An experiment published in iScience provides evidence that octopuses (章鱼) feel pain like humans do.
During the experiment Crook, who comes from San Francisco State University, placed an octopus between two rooms with different lines and spots on the walls, and then observed where she preferred to stay. The next day, in another part of the lab, Crook put acetic acid into one of the octopus’s arms. She says doing so is like pouring lemon juice on a paper cut. When the animal awoke with an aching arm, Crook kept her in the room she had preferred before. The researcher removed the octopus 20 minutes later and used lidocaine to numb (使麻木) her arm. Crook then placed her in the room she had not liked as much at first. After another 20 minutes, Crook returned her to her home container.
Finally, about five hours later, Crook brought the octopus back to the rooms and gave her an alternative: return to the originally preferred room, where she was kept with an aching arm, or go to the one she had not liked as much but where she was numb. Crook ran the experiment with seven octopuses. They all chose to go to the non-preferred room. As a control, Crook put salt water into seven other octopuses. Unlike the experimental group, those octopuses returned to their originally preferred room.
It turned out the octopuses related the room they had once liked better to the ache they felt the last time they were there. Then they compared that experience with their typical pain-free state and decided that how they usually felt was better. Using that information, the octopuses chose to go to the non-preferred room. “There’s a lot of brain processing that has to happen,” Crook says.
Crook’s study suggests that there should be more focus on the welfare of octopuses. Due to people’s ignorance, animals like octopuses are not properly protected in both research and industry in the U.S. Luckily, Crook’s findings, giving us more insights into them, have led to increased protection for octopuses.
8. What effect did lidocaine have on the studied octopus
A. Keeping her awake. B. Making her energetic.
C. Making her feel less pain. D. Removing her memory of pain.
9. What does the underlined word “alternative” in the third paragraph mean
A. Treat. B. Choice. C. Lead. D. Punishment.
10. What can we infer about octopuses according to Crook’s study
A. They tend to work in groups. B. Their preference changes with time.
C. They update their memories regularly. D. Their painful memories last for hours.
11. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. The significance of the research. B. The description of the research.
C. The reasons for protecting octopuses. D. The assumption about the octopuses.
D
Humans and horses have enjoyed strong working relationships for nearly 10,000 years. Can these age-old relationships teach us something about building robots Researchers at the University of Florida carried out research and said yes. “As we work to improve how humans communicate with robots, I thought why not learn from our partnership with horses to help solve the problem of natural interaction (互动) between humans and robots ” said Eakta Jain, an associate professor of computer and information science and engineering.
Looking at our history with animals to help shape our future with robots is nothing new. But Jain and her colleagues are the first to bring together engineering and robot researchers and horse experts and trainers to do on-the ground field studies with the animals.
Jain first reached out to Joel McQuagge, who managed the UF Horse Teaching Unit. He provided Jain with full access, so Jain spent months observing classes. She interviewed and observed horse experts, including horse trainers and owners. Jain’s notes resulted in findings and design ideas that can be applied by robot designers.
“Some of the findings are easy to visualize (可视化), while others are not very specific,” Jain said. “For example, we learned that a horse speaks with its body. You can see its ears pointing to where something caught its attention. We could build similar types of expressions without speech in our robots, like ears that point to something visual in the car when there’s a person walking on that side of the street.”
A groundbreaking finding is the sense of respect. When a trainer works with a horse, he looks for signs of respect from the horse for its human partner. “We don’t typically think about respect in the situation of human-robot interaction,” Jain says. “Can we design behaviors similar to what the horse uses Will that make the human more willing to work with the robot ”
12. Why does the author mention horses in the first paragraph
A. To provide examples. B. To make comparisons.
C. To introduce the topic. D. To support his argument.
13. How did Jain carry out her research
A. She interviewed engineers and robot designers.
B She worked with horse experts for observations.
C. She discussed her design with robotics and horse experts.
D. She checked historical records of human-horse partnerships.
14. What lesson can robot designers draw from Jain’s notes
A. Body language can be designed into robots.
B. Early warnings could be given if something happens.
C. Robots may hardly understand non-speech instructions.
D Robots can perform better than horses in locating things.
15. What can be the best title for the text
A. Study the Influences of Robots on Horse Training
B. Improve the Interaction Between Robots and Humans
C. Explore the Relationships Between Humans and Horses
D. Build Better Robots Through the Experience with Horses

For most people, adopting (收养) a pet is one of the best decisions that they can ever make in their lives. In addition to giving an animal a home and a loving family, the owner will find the company of a pet brings more happiness than expected.
For someone like Maria, having a pet was very suitable. She was all alone after moving to a new apartment in Brazil, which made her feel lonely.
So when she found a cute black puppy named Chips, she knew she had to take him home. Maria thought that Chips would be able to fill the emptiness that she had been experiencing from living all alone.
Maria was right. Once she took the puppy home, they immediately bonded. However, as Maria had to work during the day, she was worried about leaving Chips home alone in her apartment. She was also worried that his crying would upset her neighbors.
One night, when she returned home, outside her door was a package with a folded note attached to it. Maria knew that she was in trouble. She hoped that she would not be evicted (驱逐) from her new apartment because of Chips. She loved Chips so much, and she was afraid that she might have to get rid of him because he made too much noise whenever she was away. Maria was frightened and wondered who could have left it at the door because she had little contact with the people in the building except her neighbor, Angelia. In fact, they only said hello few times.
However, when she noticed the names on the folded note, she found that it wasn’t addressed to her but to her dog, Chips, and that it was “written” by another dog named Corote. Maria opened the package first and found a few toys for pets.
注意：续写词数应为150个左右。
Curious, Maria opened the note and started reading it.

Chloe Covell is professional rugby (橄榄球) player Luke Covell’s daughter. Despite her famous father’s footy past, rugby is never on Chloe’s list. Then at six years old, she began to dream about sports. “The X Games was on TV. I saw American skateboarder Nyjah Huston skating. Seeing the tricks he was doing was exciting. It just hit me. I knew that was what I wanted to do,” Chloe explained.
Picking up an old skateboard in her backyard, Covell started skating. Just six years after that, she has become one of Australia’s best skateboarding talents, winning various awards and titles. “I’m so excited the sport has been included in the Olympic Games,” Chloe said, setting qualifying for the 2024 Summer Olympics as her present goal.
While her classmates are completing their schoolwork at home, Chloe tries to catch up on her studies between flights to Brazil, Italy, Japan and the US. At the first stop of the 2023 Street League Skateboarding tour in Chicago, Covell experienced her first taste of frustration (挫折) after she was unable to finish a trick successfully. But already she seemed to have moved on from the experience. “Every time I complete a competition, I look back on it to see what I could have changed or done better,” Covell said. “I did get a little discouraged in Chicago, but I’ve learnt from that now.”
The teenage girl has rapidly built a big following online, having more than 46,000 Instagram followers. She also signed with a range of sponsors, including Nike. And she’s glad to get to know many other players. “I admire Rayssa Leal very much. We played a video game called ‘Skate Together’ when we first met at the X Games in Japan,” Chloe said. She also took a picture with celebrated skateboarder Nyjah Huston. “I was so scared when I started competing at the age of eight or nine. But it’s getting easier now since I know a lot more people. They’re all funny, nice and amazing skaters. They push me to be better,” Chloe shared.

An experiment published in iScience provides evidence that octopuses (章鱼) feel pain like humans do.
During the experiment, Crook, who comes from San Francisco State University, placed an octopus between two rooms with different lines and spots on the walls, and then observed where she preferred to stay. The next day, in another part of the lab, Crook put acetic acid into one of the octopus’s arms. She says doing so is like pouring lemon juice on a paper cut. When the animal awoke with an aching arm, Crook kept her in the room she had preferred before. The researcher removed the octopus 20 minutes later and used lidocaine to numb (使麻木) her arm. Crook then placed her in the room she had not liked as much at first. After another 20 minutes, Crook returned her to her home container.
Finally, about five hours later, Crook brought the octopus back to the rooms and gave her an alternative: return to the originally preferred room, where she was kept with an aching arm, or go to the one she had not liked as much but where she was numb. Crook ran the experiment with seven octopuses. They all chose to go to the non-preferred room. As a control, Crook put salt water into seven other octopuses. Unlike the experimental group, those octopuses returned to their originally preferred room.
It turned out the octopuses related the room they had once liked better to the ache they felt the last time they were there. Then they compared that experience with their typical pain-free state and decided that how they usually felt was better. Using that information, the octopuses chose to go to the non-preferred room. “There’s a lot of brain processing that has to happen,” Crook says.
Crook’s study suggests that there should be more focus on the welfare of octopuses. Due to people’s ignorance, animals like octopuses are not properly protected in both research and industry in the U.S. Luckily, Crook’s findings, giving us more insights into them, have led to increased protection for octopuses.
8. What effect did lidocaine have on the studied octopus
A. Keeping her awake. B. Making her energetic.
C. Making her feel less pain. D. Removing her memory of pain.
9. What does the underlined word “alternative” in the third paragraph mean
A. Treat. B. Choice. C. Lead. D. Punishment.
10. What can we infer about octopuses according to Crook’s study
A. They tend to work in groups. B. Their preference changes with time.
C. They update their memories regularly. D. Their painful memories last for hours.
11 What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. The significance of the research. B. The description of the research.
C. The reasons for protecting octopuses. D. The assumption about the octopuses.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。研究发现，章鱼可以感知疼痛，拥有远比人类想象中复杂的大脑活动。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“When the animal awoke with an aching arm, Crook kept her in the room she had preferred before. The researcher removed the octopus 20 minutes later and used lidocaine to numb (使麻木) her arm.(当动物醒来时手臂疼痛，克鲁克把她留在她以前喜欢的房间里。20分钟后，研究人员取出了章鱼，并用利多卡因麻醉了她的手臂)”以及第四段中“Then they compared that experience with their typical pain-free state and decided that how they usually felt was better.(然后，他们将这种体验与他们典型的无痛状态进行比较，并确定他们通常的感觉更好)”可知，实验人员用利多卡因使章鱼的触角麻木是为了减少章鱼的疼痛感。故选C。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词后文“return to the originally preferred room, where she was kept with an aching arm, or go to the one she had not liked as much but where she was numb”可知，章鱼可以回到章鱼一开始选择的但后来留给她痛苦记忆的房间，或是去她不太喜欢，但没有感觉的房间。即Crook在实验中给章鱼提供了两种选择，划线词“alternative”意为“选择”。故选B。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“Finally, about five hours later, Crook brought the octopus back to the rooms and gave her an alternative: return to the originally preferred room, where she was kept with an aching arm, or go to the one she had not liked as much but where she was numb. Crook ran the experiment with seven octopuses. They all chose to go to the non-preferred room.(最后，大约五个小时后，克鲁克把章鱼带回了房间，并给了它两个选择：要么回到原来喜欢的房间，在那里她的手臂疼痛，要么去她不太喜欢的房间，在那里她没有感觉。克鲁克用七只章鱼做了这个实验。他们都选择去不喜欢的房间)”可知，五小时后，章鱼仍然记得在第一个房间里所感受到的痛苦，由此可推知，章鱼对痛苦的记忆会持续几个小时。故选D。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Crook’s study suggests that there should be more focus on the welfare of octopuses. Due to people’s ignorance, animals like octopuses are not properly protected in both research and industry in the U.S. Luckily, Crook’s findings, giving us more insights into them, have led to increased protection for octopuses.(克鲁克的研究表明，应该更多地关注章鱼的福利。由于人们的无知，像章鱼这样的动物在美国的研究和工业中都没有得到适当的保护。幸运的是，克鲁克的发现让我们对章鱼有了更多的了解，从而增加了对章鱼的保护)”可知，由于缺乏对章鱼的了解，人们对章鱼的保护并不到位，所以Crook的研究发现可以唤起人们对章鱼更加周到的保护，这也是此研究的重要意义。故选A。
D
Humans and horses have enjoyed strong working relationships for nearly 10,000 years. Can these age-old relationships teach us something about building robots Researchers at the University of Florida carried out research and said yes. “As we work to improve how humans communicate with robots, I thought why not learn from our partnership with horses to help solve the problem of natural interaction (互动) between humans and robots ” said Eakta Jain, an associate professor of computer and information science and engineering.
Looking at our history with animals to help shape our future with robots is nothing new. But Jain and her colleagues are the first to bring together engineering and robot researchers and horse experts and trainers to do on-the ground field studies with the animals.
Jain first reached out to Joel McQuagge, who managed the UF Horse Teaching Unit. He provided Jain with full access, so Jain spent months observing classes. She interviewed and observed horse experts, including horse trainers and owners. Jain’s notes resulted in findings and design ideas that can be applied by robot designers.
“Some of the findings are easy to visualize (可视化) while others are not very specific,” Jain said. “For example, we learned that a horse speaks with its body. You can see its ears pointing to where something caught its attention. We could build similar types of expressions without speech in our robots, like ears that point to something visual in the car when there’s a person walking on that side of the street.”
A groundbreaking finding is the sense of respect. When a trainer works with a horse, he looks for signs of respect from the horse for its human partner. “We don’t typically think about respect in the situation of human-robot interaction,” Jain says. “Can we design behaviors similar to what the horse uses Will that make the human more willing to work with the robot ”
12. Why does the author mention horses in the first paragraph
A. To provide examples. B. To make comparisons.
C. To introduce the topic. D. To support his argument.
13. How did Jain carry out her research
A. She interviewed engineers and robot designers.
B. She worked with horse experts for observations.
C. She discussed her design with robotics and horse experts.
D. She checked historical records of human-horse partnerships.
14. What lesson can robot designers draw from Jain’s notes
A. Body language can be designed into robots.
B. Early warnings could be given if something happens.
C. Robots may hardly understand non-speech instructions.
D. Robots can perform better than horses in locating things.
15. What can be the best title for the text
A. Study the Influences of Robots on Horse Training
B. Improve the Interaction Between Robots and Humans
C. Explore the Relationships Between Humans and Horses
D. Build Better Robots Through the Experience with Horses
【答案】12. C 13. B 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。研究人员通过观察马与人类之间的互动关系，认为在建造机器人时可以在非语言交流和尊重等方面借鉴一些经验。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“Can these age-old relationships teach us something about building robots Researchers at the University of Florida carried out research and said yes. ‘As we work to improve how humans communicate with robots, I thought why not learn from our partnership with horses to help solve the problem of natural interaction (互动) between humans and robots ’(这些古老的关系能教会我们制造机器人的一些东西吗？佛罗里达大学的研究人员进行了研究，得出了肯定的结论。“当我们致力于改善人类与机器人的交流方式时，我想为什么不从我们与马的合作中学习，来帮助解决人类与机器人之间的自然互动问题呢？”)”可知，人类和马一直保持着牢固的关系，而研究人员设想能否把这种关系运用于制造机器人。由此可知作者在第一段中提到马是为了引出话题。故选C。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“Jain spent months observing classes. She interviewed and observed horse experts(Jain花了几个月的时间观察课程。她采访并观察了马专家)”可知，Jain花了几个月的时间在马匹教学课上进行观察，并且她采访了马匹专家，即她与这些人合作实地开展研究，获得观测结果。故选B。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段中“We could build similar types of expressions without speech in our robots, like ears that point to something visual in the car when there’s a person walking on that side of the street.(我们可以让机器人在没有语言的情况下建立类似的表情，比如当有人走在街道的另一边时，它们的耳朵会指向车内的视觉物体)”可推知，可以模仿马的行为在机器人中建立类似的无语言表达，即通过肢体语言交流。故选A。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据全文内容，结合第一段中“As we work to improve how humans communicate with robots, I thought why not learn from our partnership with horses to help solve the problem of natural interaction (互动) between humans and robots (当我们致力于改善人类与机器人的交流方式时，我想为什么不从我们与马的合作中学习，来帮助解决人类与机器人之间的自然互动问题呢？)”可知，文章主要介绍了通过观察马与人类之间的互动关系，研究人员认为在建造机器人时可以借鉴一些经验，由此可知D项“通过与马的体验打造更好的机器人”可作文章最佳标题。故选D。

If you want to stay healthy, you need to get moving and start exercising. ____16____ But the truth is that you can perform a regular exercise routine (常规) even in the comfort of your home. Here are some good tips you can follow at home.
Set up a gym area. It can be quite difficult to work out at home without a specific area that you can use. So make sure to set up one, even if it’s just at the side of your bed. And you’d better prepare some sports equipment that you truly need there. You can also work with the things that you have at home. ____17____
Draw up plans ahead of time. One of the first things that you need to do to ensure that you stay fit at home is give exercise a priority in your plan. ____18____ However, sometimes, it’s only a matter of priorities and making time for the things that matter the most, such as exercising to keep your body physically and mentally fit.
____19____ This is specifically important when you feel that the routines that you are performing are becoming too easy for you, or simply when you get tired of doing the same set of exercises daily. For example, if you are already tired of doing push-ups, why not try to do something different
Don’t forget a self-care routine. ____20____ You need to focus on your mental health as well. If you feel good mentally, the positive energy will spread physically. In this case, you will be healthier.
A. Pay more attention to your feelings.
B. Change your exercise routine if necessary.
C. This will remind you to stand up from time to time.
D You may connect the workout with the need to go to the gym.
E. For example, it’s a good choice to use filled water bottles as weights.
F. Only taking care of your physical body to stay fit is far from enough.
G. The reason is that you may argue that you are too busy to exercise during the day.
【答案】16. D 17. E 18. G 19. B 20. F
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了几条在家锻炼身体的建议。
【16题详解】
此空设于段中，是一个过渡句，用于承上启下。上文“If you want to stay healthy, you need to get moving and start exercising. (如果你想保持健康，你需要动起来，开始锻炼。)”提到如果你想保持健康，就要开始锻炼。空处指出你或许会把锻炼和去健身房联系起来，下文“But the truth is that you can perform a regular exercise routine (常规) even in the comfort of your home. Here are some good tips you can follow at home. (但事实是，即使在舒适的家中，你也可以进行有规律的锻炼。这里有一些很好的建议，你可以在家里遵循。)”接着指出但事实是，即使在舒适的家里，你也可以进行有规律的锻炼，空处内容与下文构成转折关系，D选项“你可能会把锻炼和去健身房的需要联系起来”符合语境。故选D。
【17题详解】
根据上文“And you’d better prepare some sports equipment that you truly need there. You can also work with the things that you have at home. (你最好准备一些你在那里真正需要的运动器材。你也可以使用家里的东西。)”指出你也可以使用家里的东西去锻炼，可知，空处就此进行举例说明。E选项“例如，用装满水的瓶子作为砝码是个不错的选择”符合语境，故选E。
【18题详解】
根据上文“One of the first things that you need to do to ensure that you stay fit at home is give exercise a priority in your plan. (要想在家保持健康，你需要做的第一件事就是在你的计划中优先考虑锻炼。)”以及后文“However, sometimes, it’s only a matter of priorities and making time for the things that matter the most, such as exercising to keep your body physically and mentally fit. (然而，有时候，这只是一个优先考虑的问题，为最重要的事情腾出时间，比如锻炼身体，保持身心健康。)”可知，上文提到在制定计划时要把锻炼放在首要位置，空处指出这么做的原因是你可能会争辩说白天太忙，没有时间锻炼。下文表示转折，说明有时只是需要为最重要的事情腾出时间，比如锻炼。此空设于段中，与上文存在解释关系，与下文存在转折关系。故G项“原因是你可能会争辩说你白天太忙而没有时间锻炼”符合语境。故选G。
【19题详解】
此空设于段首，是本段的主题句。根据本段内容“This is specifically important when you feel that the routines that you are performing are becoming too easy for you, or simply when you get tired of doing the same set of exercises daily. For example, if you are already tired of doing push-ups, why not try to do something different (当你觉得你所做的例行公事对你来说变得太容易了，或者只是当你厌倦了每天做同样的一套练习时，这一点尤其重要。例如，如果你已经厌倦了做俯卧撑，为什么不尝试做一些不同的事情呢？)”可知，本段主要说明当你发现锻炼的常规计划不合适的时候，要适时地去改变。故B项“如果有必要，改变你的锻炼计划”可作为本段主题句。故选B。
【20题详解】
根据后文“You need to focus on your mental health as well. (你也需要关注自己的心理健康。)”可知，此空设于段中，下文与其存在顺承关系，根据下文指出你也需要关注心理健康，说明空处说明仅仅照顾你的身体以保持健康是远远不够的，故F项“仅仅照顾好你的身体来保持健康是远远不够的”符合语境。故选F。

47. 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
For most people, adopting (收养) a pet is one of the best decisions that they can ever make in their lives. In addition to giving an animal a home and a loving family, the owner will find the company of a pet brings more happiness than expected.
For someone like Maria, having a pet was very suitable. She was all alone after moving to a new apartment in Brazil, which made her feel lonely.
So when she found a cute black puppy named Chips, she knew she had to take him home. Maria thought that Chips would be able to fill the emptiness that she had been experiencing from living all alone.
Maria was right. Once she took the puppy home, they immediately bonded. However, as Maria had to work during the day, she was worried about leaving Chips home alone in her apartment. She was also worried that his crying would upset her neighbors.
One night, when she returned home, outside her door was a package with a folded note attached to it. Maria knew that she was in trouble. She hoped that she would not be evicted (驱逐) from her new apartment because of Chips. She loved Chips so much, and she was afraid that she might have to get rid of him because he made too much noise whenever she was away. Maria was frightened and wondered who could have left it at the door because she had little contact with the people in the building except her neighbor, Angelia. In fact, they only said hello few times.
However, when she noticed the names on the folded note, she found that it wasn’t addressed to her but to her dog, Chips, and that it was “written” by another dog named Corote. Maria opened the package first and found a few toys for pets.
注意：续写词数应为150个左右。
Curious, Maria opened the note and started reading it.

With Chips following her, Maria knocked at Angelia’s door.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Curious, Maria opened the note and started reading it. The note, which was actually written by her neighbor Angelia in Corote’s voice, said she’d noticed Chips crying a lot. She wanted to give Chips some toys to play with so that he wouldn’t feel alone when Maria was away. Besides, Chips was invited to play with Corote. Maria was deeply moved and felt relieved after reading the note. Instead of expressing discontent, her kind neighbor was really understanding and tried to offer support. Maria felt she needed to meet Angelia and her dog.
With Chips following her, Maria knocked at Angelia’s door. The door opened and Maria saw Angelia, smiling at her. Corote, Angelia’s dog, followed her and stared at Chips happily. The two dogs immediately hit it off. A pleasant atmosphere was created when Maria and Angelia were chatting. After that, the two pairs regularly played together. In the process, Maria also got valuable advice from Angelia. Through their shared experiences and the joy their pets brought them, Maria and her neighbor formed a deep connection and their lives became very colorful and meaningful.
