(2024·北京顺义·一模)First Impression
The day that I met my best friend for the first time, I was full of anxiety. I was trying to do some revision for an important oral exam in the local library and people kept disturbing(打扰)me. I was getting more and more annoyed and the more upset I got, the less I was able to concentrate. I couldn’t stand when I heard someone singing loudly behind me. I turned around and glared at the person who was singing. It was a tall girl about the same age as me and she was standing with a book in her hands. I picked up my books, looked at her and said angrily, “Thanks to your noise. I’ve been unable to study. You’re so selfish!” Then I left the library in a hurry.
When I got home, I realized I’d left my textbook behind and there was nothing I could do as the library was closed. I was so upset that I almost cried. Just then, the phone rang. A girl named Jenny had noticed my book in the library and she got my phone number from the librarian. She said she didn’t live far away and could bring it around for me.
I was so grateful and agreed to meet her at the store down the road. When I recognized Jenny was the girl I
had shouted at for singing, I was filled with shame and apologized several times for my rude behavior.
Jenny was kind enough to pardon me. Ever since then we’ve been best friends and we got along very well. I often think how lucky I am! We two girls are much alike and I trust her more than anyone else.
From the experience I know that the first impression is untrue sometimes and we can’t judge a person only by the first impression.

When I was in my first year of high school, I had a terrible time when every area of my life was a disaster. I felt so hopeless and alone that I thought everything was impossible.
On one such day, I was walking from class across the school to catch the school bus home, with my head down, fighting tears of total hopelessness, when a young man came down the sidewalk toward me. Though I had never seen him before, I did not want him to see that I was in such low spirits, so I turned my head away and hoped to hurry past. I thought he’d walk on by, but he moved until he was directly in front of me, waited until I looked up, and then smiled.
Looking into my eyes, this stranger spoke in a quiet voice: “Whatever is wrong will pass. You’re going to be OK, just hang on.” He then smiled again and walked away.
I can’t explain the effect of that man’s unexpected kindness and caring! He gave me the one thing that I’d lost
completely—hope. I looked for him in our school to thank him, but never saw him again.
That was thirty years ago. And I’ve never forgotten that moment. Over the years, whenever I see someone who is in trouble, I will always think of that young man and try to give a flash of hope in the dark wherever I can. I carry things for people when they are too heavy for them, sit with naughty babies in the waiting room while their mothers are busy, or talk to tired couples at the checkout line or it could be anything. If you keep your head up, your heart will show you the place that needs hope.

(2024·北京石景山·一模)Hey, that’s me!
Amy Jandrisevits knows the value of a good doll. “Dolls have a power we don’t completely understand,” she told The Today Show. It’s what she learned while working as a social worker in a hospital. She used dolls to help her young patients to adapt (适应) to their changing medical situations. Many of the kids saw themselves in those dolls. But for the kids missing an arm or a leg, there were none they could relate to.
So, seven years ago, when a friend’s son lost one of his arms because of an accident, Jandrisevits knew what might help the little boy to go through this challenging period. “It’s hard to tell a kid, ‘You are perfect the way you are,’ and to build confidence that way, but never offer them anything that looks like them,” she says. Jandrisevits went about changing that. She made a doll by hand that looked like her friend’s child and sent it off. After the friend
posted a photo online of the happy child and his doll, another woman asked Jandrisevits to make a doll that looked like her baby, who was missing a leg.
Word spread, and soon Jandrisevits was making dolls for children with facial scars (疤) and birthmarks—in short, a doll that looked like themselves. She quitted her job and started an organization called A Doll Like Me which offers dolls to those children for free.
Working out of her home in Milwaukee, from photos sent by parents or caregivers, Jandrisevits spends about seven hours making each doll. A Go Fund Me page helps her with costs and allows her to donate her services.
In all, she’s made more than 400 dolls so far. The waiting list is long, but Jandrisevits is not planning to give up. As she explains, “Every kid, no matter which country, age, medical problem, or body type, should look into the sweet face of a doll and see their own.”
16.What happened seven years ago
A.Jandrisevits became a social worker in a hospital.
B.Jandrisevits lost one of her arms in an accident.
C.Jandrisevits planned to start her own business.
D.Jandrisevits made a doll for her friend’s son.
17.Jandrisevits started A Doll Like Me to ________.
A.teach parents how to make dolls at home
B.offer dolls to children with medical problems
C.provide social workers for children’s hospitals
D.send caregivers to families with disabled children
18.According to Jandrisevits, what is the value of good dolls
A.Looking after dolls helps children to be more caring.
B.Selling dolls is a good way to improve children’s social skills.
C.Seeing themselves in dolls can help children build confidence.
D.Making dolls provides more job opportunities for social workers.

MVP
When Brandon had the ball, I was open. But he passed it to Cole. Cole had a great turn-around jump shot, but I was a good shot, too. In fact, we each had six points so far. But Cole was more popular, and the team fed him the ball. I must outscore Cole because I wanted to be the MVP—most valuable player.
Later, Jeff stole the ball from the Kings and passed it to me. I saw Cole running toward the basket, but no one was guarding me either. I threw the ball into the basket.
Cole slapped (拍) my hand. “Good shot, Derek.” I just smiled. Then Cole got the ball. He passed it to me and ran under the basket. I ignored (忽视) him and shot, but I failed.
“Cole was open,” said Jeff.
“So was I,” I muttered (嘟囔). But I felt upset inside.
“Hey, it’s no big deal,” said Cole. “We’re all trying to win this game. We’re a team.”
It happened fast. Cole was on the floor holding his ankle (脚踝). Coach Sanchez was there in a second and helped him to the bench. I felt my heart hammer (敲击) in my ears. Now I was going to be the MVP without a doubt.
Everything didn’t look good. Every time I took the ball, two Kings players were guarding me instead of one. The Kings believed that with Cole gone, they could shut me down and win. Cole had helped divide their attention before. I’d never thought about how much that helped me.
Now we were down by one, but time was running out. All of a sudden, more than anything, I wanted our team to take home the trophy (奖杯). I took the ball down the court and passed it to Brandon. He caught it and and hesitated. “Shoot!” I shouted. He caught it and let it fly—right into the basket. We won!
We were all jumping around when I saw Cole on the bench.
“Hey,” I said. “Great game.”
“You, too,” said Cole, slapping my back. “Great idea to pass it to Brandon. Congratulations on getting MVP.”
I’d been waiting a long time to hear those words, but they didn’t seem so important now. “Thanks,” I said. “It was a team effort.”
And I finally understood just what that meant.
22.At first, Derek wanted to be ________.
A.the most valuable player B.the greatest guard
C.the most popular coach D.the best team leader
23.Derek helped the team win the game by ________.

“What are you talking about Daisy, you did a great job!” Ms. Wilson said. “What I wanted to ask you is if you would be interested in working a few days a week after school as a lab assistant (助手). I need some help organizing all the materials.” Daisy happily accepted.

(2024·北京通州·一模)When I was 13, I was going to visit my grandfather in Lancashire. My aunt made me sandwiches for the road. They would keep me going until I reached the airport.
As I got onto the bus, I was so thankful to find a window seat. When I sat there, I saw an old man watching me. “Excuse me Can I sit here ” His voice was deep.
“Yes, of course!” I said. He looked kind of nervous, or tired. He let out a sigh (叹气) and relaxed a bit in his seat.
“Hi, I’m Tony.” I said as I gave him my right hand to shake.
“George.” He looked at me for a couple of seconds before accepting my hand.
He was friendly and we talked about this trip. I knew he was 70 and headed to Birmingham to visit his son and grandchildren. I told him about my grandfather, and we both seemed to relax.
Our conversation was rudely interrupted by my stomach. I took out a sandwich and took a big bite. I noticed George was watching me eating. He probably was hungry.
“Would you eat with me ” I said as I handed him my second sandwich.
“No, no, I don’t want to eat your food. You will need that for your next coach.”
“No, I won’t. I will eat again on the plane. Plus, I don’t really like eating alone.” The determination (决心) on
my face must have been very persuasive (有说服力的), because after a moment’s hesitation (犹豫), he nodded his head weakly and accepted the sandwich.
After eating, I decided that I should have a nap. I had an hour to kill before we reached Birmingham.
The sudden tap (轻拍) on my shoulder made me open my eyes. It was George. He told me we had reached Birmingham. I said, “Nice to meet you, George. I hope you have a great time with your family.”
As I extended (伸出) my hand for a final handshake, he not only took it, but cupped it in both his hands. “Thank you for being so kind to me. Safe travels.” He said and turned around to get off the bus.
I didn’t know what he walked away with that day, but I walked away with a sense of satisfaction. His words “Thank you for being so kind to me” kept ringing in my ears and I kept smiling to myself.

(2024·北京大兴·一模)The Greatest Gift
On Christmas Eve, George found himself on a bridge outside his hometown. He was sad because he thought his life had been a complete waste. In this hopeless moment, a mysterious man appeared. The man wondered why George was here instead of staying with his family. George told him he disliked his simple life in the small town. George believed he was just an insignificant banker with a family doing the same thing every day. Without any achievement, George wished he had never been born at all. Hoping to teach him a lesson, the man granted (满足) George his wish.
After the man disappeared, George traveled back to town. Nothing appeared out of place until he walked by Hank Biddle’s tree. The tree should have been damaged (毁坏) from the time George ran his car into it. But in this moment, the tree looked like it hadn’t been hit. In fact, he remembered clearly that he had run his car into it. Soon, George discovered the town he knew so well didn’t know him at all-because he had never been born.
As George walked around town, he noticed he was a stranger to everyone. Not only that, George learned that the lives of his friends and family had taken a turn for the worse. For one, George’s job as a banker was replaced by another man. Because the new banker was greedy (贪婪的), many people’s lives were negatively affected.
Without George, the lives of his family members were also disturbed. George learned that his beloved brother, whom he had once saved from drowning (溺水), died because George was not there to save him. The death of George’s brother continued to bring huge sadness to their parents. George also found out that Alice, the love of his life, ended up in a difficult marriage with someone else.
George realized these dark changes might stay forever unless he did something. He returned to the bridge to find the man and begged for his life back. Once again, his wish was granted.

One Sunday, Nicholas, a teenager, went skiing at Sugarloaf Mountain in Maine. In the early afternoon, when he was planning to go home, a snowstorm swept into the area. Unable to see far, Nicholas was lost, all alone! He didn’t have food, a phone, or other supplies (供给).
Nicholas had no idea where he was. He tried to calm down. He thought about all the survival (求生) shows he had watched on TV. It was time to put the tips he had learned to use. He decided to stop skiing. There was a better chance of someone finding him if he stayed out. The first thing he did was to find shelter (庇护所) from the freezing wind and snow. If he didn’t, his body temperatures would get very low, which could quickly kill him. Using his skis, Nicholas built a snow cave. He gathered a lot of snow and dug out a hole in the middle to stay warm.
By that evening, Nicholas was really hungry. He ate snow and drank water from a nearby river so that his body wouldn’t lose too much water. Not knowing how much longer he could last, Nicholas did the only thing he could—he huddled (蜷缩).
The next day, Nicholas went out to look for help, but he couldn’t find anyone. He followed his tracks and returned to the snow cave, he could die that night. On Tuesday, Nicholas went out again to find help. He had walked for about a mile when a volunteer searcher found him. After two days stuck in the snow, Nicholas was saved.
He had often watched Grylls’ survival show Man vs Wild. That’s where he learned the tips that saved his life. When Grylls heard about Nicholas’ amazing deeds, he was super impressed that Nicholas had made it since he knew better than anyone how hard Nicholas had to work to stay alive.
