Get up at 6 a. m., arrive at the hospital one hour earlier to help patients check in, and accompany patients during consultations... In recent years, “patient escorts” has emerged as a new industry, and those who have taken on this career are known as “people who sell time”.26-year-old Zhang Tian is one of them.
September 4 was a lucky day for Zhang Tian. On this day, Zhang Tian saw a video about patient escorts(陪侍)on a short video platform. The daily routine of patient escorts shown in the video fascinated her and gradually inspired her to take this on as a business. She browsed through many platforms and read multiple information and found there indeed exists a certain demand for patient escorts, especially from the elderly, children, and pregnant women. Since she had never engaged in this kind of work before, she spent two days in major hospitals in Wuhan, in order to familiarize herself with all the departments on different floors, as well as the processes of medical consultation and preparation for surgery.
After early preparatory work, Zhang Tian posted a video of her self-introduction on major social platforms, talking about the help and services a patient escort provides, as well as some tips for a quick and convenient medical consultation. At first, she was a little worried that her video would go unnoticed. However, after she uploaded the video, it got over 100 likes and she received her first ever offer as a patient escort.
The memory of her first task is still alive and fresh in her mind. She received a phone call on September 9 from a man whose father was seriously ill and might need surgery. He wanted Zhang Tian to accompany his father through his consultation and treatment. Zhang Tian made full preparations before meeting her first client and did a very good job despite her nervousness.
“Later, the family expressed their gratitude to me over and over again, which warmed my heart and gave me a sense of achievement,” Zhang Tian said.

The walls of our house were supposed to be white. But I never remember them being white. At first, they were gray, then turning black. My father was a coal worker. He made charcoal(木炭)in our house. Have you ever seen charcoal being made The little bags you buy in the store for barbeque come from somewhere, and honestly, it’s a very dirty business.
I remember one day I was bagging up the charcoal with my dad, and it was really cold and raining. All we had was the tiny roof over our heads. After a few hours, I got to go to school, where it was warm. My dad stayed out, working all day. If he didn’t sell that day, maybe we wouldn’t have enough to eat. I thought to myself: At some point, everything is going to change.
For this, I owe football everything. I started to play football early. I played so much football that every two months, my boots would break apart. When I was seven, I must have been pretty good, because I scored 64 goals for my neighborhood team. That year, my dad got a call from a coach saying they wanted me to play there. My dad asked, “Oh, it’s too far away. Nine kilometers. How will we get him there ” My mom said, “No, no, no! Don’t worry! I’ll take him!” And that is when Graciela was born.
Graciela was an old yellow bicycle that my mother would use to drive me to the training ground every day. It had a little basket in the front. Imagine this: A woman biking through town with a little boy on the back and a bag in the basket with his boots. Up hills. Down hills. Through the dangerous neighborhoods. In the rain. In the cold. In the dark. Graciela got us where we needed to go.
Nowadays, people see me on YouTube, watch the World Cup and witness how I won the competition, but they don’t know the journey. They don’t know about my living room walls turning from white to black. They don’t know about my father working under a little roof. They don’t know about my mother riding Graciela through the rain and the cold.

This winter, the U. S. state of California received unusually large amounts of rain and snow. Now, people worry that some areas will flood as the snow in the Sierra Nevada Mountains melts.
Ron Caetano lives about half— way between the cities of Los Angeles and San Francisco. He is preparing to leave in case his community, called the Island District, floods.
More than 100 years ago, the Island District area was under a large lake named Tulare Lake. At one time, Tulare Lake was the largest freshwater lake west of the Mississippi River. But reservoirs(水库)and watering systems for agriculture caused it to disappear. However, in very rainy years, farmland can still get covered with water.
Experts say reservoirs near the area will likely receive three times more water than they can hold this year. That means officials must increase the amount of water they release from the reservoirs. If too much water is released, the area might flood.
The Island District has organized a community network to help prepare for floods. People are placing sandbags close to elderly neighbors’ houses to block possible flooding. And they are looking at reports from water officials, county officials, and from each other.
California has had very dry weather in recent years. Both cities and farm communities acclaimed this year’s winter rains. If the weather gets warmer slowly, the snow will not melt quickly and there may be little or no flooding. But if the weather gets hot quickly, that will bring trouble from too much melting snow.
Officials announced plans to close parts of Yosemite National Park because of threats of flooding. The park is about 270 kilometers east of San Francisco in the Sierra Nevada Mountains.
Nicholas Pinter is with the University of California, Davis Center for Watershed Sciences. He said the lake’s size has always changed because of California’s weather. He described the surrounding area this way. “It has been an engineering problem all along,” he said. “This is a bathtub with no way out.”
32. What made Tulare Lake disappear
A. Lack of rainfall. B. Natural disasters.
C. Human behaviors. D. Climate warming.
33. What does the underlined word “acclaimed” mean in paragraph 6
A. Feared. B. Prevented. C. Stored. D. Welcomed.
34. What might people of California hope to happen
A. The government can help them escape. B. The weather will gradually get warm.
C. There will be more rain there. D. Officials won’t let off water.
35. What can we infer from Nicholas Pinter’s words
A. It is difficult to deal with the flood. B. It is easy to keep the snow water.
C. The surrounding area is unfit to live. D. The lake is already overflowing.

It’s not possible to stay together with loved ones all the time. Sometimes family members have to be far away from each other. 36 Although we know what they are suffering, being far away makes it harder to help and comfort loved ones. 37 Keeping a positive attitude of support is more helpful than getting into worrying about the person. I think it is what I can do to help my loved ones.
My daughter has been working full—time during summer about 10 hours a day. She has to study hard for a big entrance exam.

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。
Jackson, now a successful architect in NewYork City, comes back to his father’s small wooden house that is on the island in the middle of the lake. Jackson is fond of fishing. And he often takes his son and daughters fishing in the same place, where he used to fish when he was a child. His children are addicted to the fishing joy, which reminds him of the day 34 years ago.
34 years ago, Jackson was 11 years old and lived with his family on an island in the middle of a lake in New Hampshire. On the day before the bass(鲈鱼)season opened, Jackson and his father were fishing early in the evening, catching sunfish. When his fishing rod(鱼竿)doubled over, he knew something huge was on the other end.
He very carefully lifted the fish from the water. It was the largest one he had ever seen, but it was a bass.
The boy and his father looked at the handsome fish, its gills(鳃)playing back and forth in the moonlight. The father lit a match and looked at his watch. It was 10 pm —two hours before the season opened. He looked at the huge fish, then at the boy.
“You’ll have to put the fish back, son,” he said. “Dad!” cried the boy.
“There will be other fish,” said his father.
“Not as big as this one,” the boy cried and shouted. He looked around the lake. No other fishermen or boats were anywhere around in the moonlight. He looked again at his father. Even though no one had seen them, nor could anyone ever know what time he caught the fish, the boy could tell from his father’s voice clearly that the decision couldn’t be changed.
The father patted him slightly on his shoulder and sincerely taught him, “My boy, rules are simple matters of right and wrong. It is the practice of rules that is difficult, but it’s your choice.”
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
