Where to Eat in Kuala Lumpur
Great restaurants in Kuala Lumpur offer a genuine global dining experience. Whether you are looking to enjoy hearty comfort food or some local delicacies, the city's dining scene satisfies all comers.
Mum's Place
Nothing brings more comfort than mom's cooking. With recipes inspired by the owners' mother, this restaurant brings you Nyonya dishes that are truly Malaysian. Located in the district of Damansara Perdana, Mum's Place is a neighbourhood restaurant with its main customers from residents nearby. Some of the best dishes include cencaru fish, devil curry chicken and beef rendang.
Cantaloupe
Located about 20 minutes from downtown Malacca, it is a home-based eatery with about 10 tables manned by four operators. Unlike most restaurants, food is self-service here, with dishes placed on catering pans for customers to choose from. It serves traditional Malaysian dishes with distinct Chinese influences. You will find rice dumplings and chicken rendang among the offerings. It has two branches in the city. Their dishes sell out fast, so it'd be best to head there before lunch time.
YumYum Restaurant
Situated in the beautiful Shangri-La Hotel, Yum Yum Restaurant is among the locals' many favourite spots to dine at. It offers an interesting Nyonya and Thai food with Chinese influences that make them stand out. The classic dishes include sambal petai prawns, assam fish head and Yum Yum egg. It can get crowded here, so it'd be best to head there early or call ahead for reservations.
Troika Sky Dining
Offering fine dining, the impressive Troika Sky Dining undoubtedly stands out from the pack. Set on the 23rd floor of Tower B of The Troika, it goes without saying that the cloud-skimming views here are something else entirely. The food is what helped it stand out. It serves award-winning French, Italian, Greek, and Spanish food and adventurous menu of high-end pizzas and pasta.

Montessori was born in Italy in 1870 with progressive parents, who frequently communicated with the country’s leading thinkers and scholars. This enlightened family environment provided Montessori with many advantages over other young girls of the time.
Her mother’s support was vital for some important decisions, such as her further study in a technical school after her elementary education. Her parents’ support also proved to be essential for her decision to study medicine, a field that was dominated by men.
Soon after graduating, in 1896, Montessori began work as a voluntary assistant in a clinic at the University of Rome, where she cared for children with learning difficulties. The rooms were empty, with just a few pieces of furniture. One day, she found that the children were enthusiastically playing with breadcrumbs(面包屑) that had dropped on the floor. It then occurred to her that the origin of some intellectual disabilities could be related with poverty. With the right learning materials, these and other young minds could be trained, Montessori concluded.
The observation would lead Montessori to develop a new method of education that focused on providing better stimulation during the sensitive periods of childhood.
At its centre was the principle(原则) that all the learning materials should be child-sized and designed to appeal to all the senses. In addition, each child should also be allowed to move and act freely, and use their creativity and problem-solving skills. Teachers took the role of guides, supporting the children without press or control.
Montessori opened her first Children’s House in 1907. When the Fascists(法西斯主义者) first came into power in Italy in 1922, they welcomed her movement at the beginning. But they soon came to oppose the emphasis on the children’s freedom of expression. Montessori s values had always been about human respect and the rights of children and women, but the Fascists wanted to use her work and her fame
Things reached a breaking point when the Fascist tried to influence the schools’ educational content, and in 1934 Montessori and her son decided to leave Italy. She didn’t return to her homeland until 1947, and she continued to write about and develop her method until her death in 1952, at the age of 81.
24. What was the main reason for Montessori to develop a new educational method
A. Her experience as a voluntary assistant in a clinic.
B. Her family’s supportive influence on her education.
C. Her decision to study medicine, a field dominated by men.
D. Her observation of children playing with breadcrumbs happily.
25. What was a central principle of Montessori’s educational method
A. Focusing on group competition.
B. Taking control of children’s action.
C. Providing one-size-fits-all learning materials.
D. Creating a free and child-centered environment.
26. Why did Montessori decide to leave Italy in 1934
A. She was offered a better job in a different country.
B. She was forced to give up her work and her fame.
C. She wanted to avoid the influence from the Fascist.
D. She wanted to explore other countries and cultures.
27. Which of the following words can best describe Montessori in this passage
A. Enthusiastic and kind. B. Observant and innovative.
C. Cooperative and generous. D. Traditional and emotional.
C
In today’s digital age, where a vast ocean of information is just a click away, the question arises: can one learn too much because no individual can grasp the entirety of human knowledge. However, there exists a phenomenon where too much learning can lead to inaction, a state of being flooded with too much information.
Consider a situation where you’re eager to achieve a particular goal. You begin by conducting lots of research, diving deep into the subject. As you absorb more information, it paradoxically (矛盾地) feels like your understanding weakens. Each new concept or strategy reveals further layers, making the goal seem more complicated and out of reach.
This situation is a common trap: the endless pursuit (追求)of more information. Although gaining comprehensive knowledge is valuable, that is to say there’s nothing wrong with learning a lot, issues arise when this pursuit affects practical application. If learning continuously prevents you from starting, you’ll find yourself stuck, unable to achieve your desired outcomes.
A more effective approach to achieving goals is to strike a balance between learning and doing. Gather necessary information and then shift into action quickly, even if you feel somewhat unprepared. This is often the best way to learn, as hands-on experience provides insights that theoretical (理论的)knowledge alone cannot.
The comparison with a baby learning to walk is a good example here. A baby doesn’t learn to walk by sitting and analyzing the process. Instead, it learns by attempting to walk, falling, and then understanding from each fall what works and what doesn’t. Through repeated effort, walking is eventually mastered. This method applies to goal achievement too. By engaging in action, learning from the outcomes, and adjusting accordingly, you gradually move closer to your goals.
In summary, while the pursuit of knowledge is valuable, it’s crucial not to let it become a barrier to action. Learning should be a stepping stone to doing, not an end in itself. It’s through the interaction of gathering knowledge and applying it that we can truly progress towards our ambitions.
28. What stops people from achieving the goal
A. The distraction caused by unrelated tasks.
B. The inability to find relevant information.
C. The desire to learn basic concepts or strategies.
D. The confusion caused by too much information.
29. What does the author try to advocate in Paragraphs 3&4
A. Sticking to continuous learning.
B. Gaining as much knowledge as possible.
C. Taking practical action without delay.
D. Focusing more on theoretical knowledge.
30. Why is the example “baby learning to walk” mentioned in paragraph 5
A. To compare different learning styles.
B. To illustrate learning through action and experience.
C. To show the significance of making mistakes.
D. To emphasize the necessity for parental guidance.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. The Process of Absorbing Information
B. The Harmony of Learning and Doing
C. The Pursuit of Advanced Knowledge
D. The importance of Hands-on Experience
D
Even if you haven’t held a conversation with Siri or Alexa, you’ve likely encountered a chatbot online. They often appear in a chat window that pops up with a friendly greeting: Thank you for visiting our site.How can I help you today Depending on the site, the chatbot is programmed to respond accordingly and even ask follow-up questions.
Chatbots are a form of conversational AI designed to simplify human interaction with computers. They are programmed to simulate human conversation and exhibit intelligent behavior that is equivalent to that of a human.
Chatbots communicate through speech or text. Both rely on artificial intelligence technologies like machine learning and natural language processing (NLP), which is a branch of artificial intelligence that teaches machines to read, analyze and interpret human language. This technology gives chatbots a baseline for understanding language structure and meaning. NLP, in essence, allows the computer to understand what you are asking and how to appropriately respond.
With developments in deep learning and reinforcement learning, chatbots can interpret more complexities in language and improve the dynamic nature of conversation between human and machine. Essentially, a chatbot tries to match what you’ve asked to an intent that it understands. The more a chatbot communicates with you, the more it understands and the more it learns to communicate like you and others with similar questions. Your positive responses reinforce its answers, and then it uses those answers again.
From customer service chatbots online to personal assistants in our homes,chatbots have started to enter our lives. In almost every industry, companies are using chatbots to help customers easily navigate their websites, answer simple questions and direct people to the relevant points of contact. Personal assistants like Siri and Alexa are designed to respond to a wide range of scenarios and queries, from current weather and news updates to personal calendars, music selections and random questions.
32．Why does the author mention Siri and Alexa in Paragraph 1
A．To explain how a chatbot works. B．To show where to find a chatbot.
C．To give examples of chatbots. D．To compare different chatbots.
33．What is the basis of chatbots
A．Language study. B．Data transmission.
C．Social interaction. D．Natural language processing.
34．What does the underlined word “reinforce” in paragraph 4 mean
A．Inspire. B．Strengthen. C．Organize. D．Match.
35．What is the last paragraph mainly about
A．The future trend of chatbots. B．The author’s predictions.
C．The effects of chatbots. D．The applications of chatbots.
第二节（共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分）
根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Apologizing for a mistake might seem difficult, but it will help you repair and improve your relationships with others after that offense.
Acknowledge the offense. This is an essential element of a good apology. 36 . Apologies are most likely to be well-received if you show that you recognize who was responsible and who was harmed. For example, saying “I made a mistake” is more effective than saying “mistakes were made”, which fails to clarify responsibility.
37 . In some cases, it’s helpful to explain an offense, especially to explain that it was not intentional and that it will not happen again. But explanations that are long-winded, sound like excuses, or blame the victim (e.g.You were really getting on my nerves.) tend to have an opposite effect.
Express regret. 38 . Expressing these feelings communicates that you recognize and regret the suffering you caused. Be careful of phrases like “That was uncharacteristic of me.” 39 . Instead, acknowledge your disappointment in yourself and make your commitment to improve.
Tell them how you’ll change. Let them know how you’ll change and what you’d do to make that possible. For instance, if you’ve been late once again, instead of just apologizing, share how you’d keep an early alarm to be on time! 40 .
A. Provide a proper explanation
B. Express your intention clearly.
C. But many apologies don’t do this enough.
D. When you hurt someone, it’s natural to feel shame or regret
E. A true apology is one where you promise it won’t be repeated again.
F. This might show that you aren't taking full ownership for what happened.
G. This will enable you to know what means the most to the offended person.

On March 18, 2018, I was alone at home in Costa Rica, unaware that my life was about to change. I received an e-mail with the subject “ 41 selection result”.

My Time to Shine
When I was a boy, I always wore turtleneck shirts because I was so sensitive and shy. I worked hard to earn exceptional marks and always tried to behave well. I was younger than everyone else because my good marks had allowed me to skip second grade, but this added nothing to my already low self-confidence.
When I was 14, I moved in with my dad in a new neighborhood, but he was always so busy and had little time for me. It seemed that he was always criticising me or demanding me too much. I began to hate coming home from school every day. I sank further into my low self-esteem (自尊心) and was filled with feeling unappreciated and alone.
One day, my aunt called. This seemed like a miracle (奇迹) to me. Aunt Ginette usually only called once a year, on my birthday. She said she had just seen some young teenagers participate in a public speaking contest, and she thought I should try it, too. She told me she firmly believed I could perform on stage like the other kids since she had seen me do skits (幽默小品) for the family at Christmas. I was astonished. Me Onstage In a public speaking contest I was hesitant. But Aunt Ginette was so confident and seemed really serious. Feeling her strong belief, I went against all odds and agreed to enter the contest.
All that winter, twice a week after dinner, I took three different buses for the three-hour round-trip to practice in Ville, where the competition would take place. Although my dad really did love me and wanted the best for me, he didn’t support this new dream, fearing it would take up my homework time and impact my academic performance. But I remained a top performer in school and never missed a day.

Cultural heritage protection
It is universally acknowledged that cultural heritage sites are of great significance, which tell the story of human civilization. Besides, having survived for a long time, they are valuable cultural resources, helping us pass our traditional culture on to future generations.
However, some cultural heritage sites in our country are facing a variety of dangers, many of which are in urgent need of protection. Consequently, cultural heritage protection should be at the top of the agenda for the benefit of all mankind.
We all share a joint responsibility to protect and preserve them. To begin with, people’s awareness of cultural heritage protection should be enhanced. Additionally, the government ought to shoulder the main responsibility to protect them. If necessary, laws should be made to punish those who destroy them on purpose.

Four months later, the big night arrived. Waiting anxiously alongside the other competitors, I couldn’t keep from trembling. Taking a deep breath, I tried my best to control my emotions, murmuring to myself, “You can do it!” Finally, it was my turn. I adjusted my clothes, confidently rose to my feet and strode (大步走) onto the stage. I stood there and firmly began my speech, which I had practiced hundreds of times. Words smoothly flew out of my mouth like a beautiful melody, and it was then that I spotted my father in the audience.
When I saw my father’s face, his eyes were shining－he was so proud. Somehow, I gained energy from his expression and finished the speech smoothly. Sitting by my dad, I awaited the result and the previous nervousness was replaced by a sense of relief. Dad gently patted my shoulder, saying, “Well done,” and gave me a big hug. “I now realize how wrong I was to criticize you all the time. I should have appreciated you more.” Hearing this, tears welled up in my eyes, blurring the surroundings. It turned out I got the first prize and we cheered happily. Since then, I have looked at the world with brand-new confidence, heading toward my bright future.

Where to Eat in Kuala Lumpur
Great restaurants in Kuala Lumpur offer a genuine global dining experience. Whether you are looking to enjoy hearty comfort food or some local delicacies, the city's dining scene satisfies all comers.
Mum's Place
Nothing brings more comfort than mom's cooking. With recipes inspired by the owners' mother, this restaurant brings you Nyonya dishes that are truly Malaysian. Located in the district of Damansara Perdana, Mum's Place is a neighbourhood restaurant with its main customers from residents nearby. Some of the best dishes include cencaru fish, devil curry chicken and beef rendang.
Cantaloupe
Located about 20 minutes from downtown Malacca, it is a home-based eatery with about 10 tables manned by four operators. Unlike most restaurants, food is self-service here, with dishes placed on catering pans for customers to choose from. It serves traditional Malaysian dishes with distinct Chinese influences. You will find rice dumplings and chicken rendang among the offerings. It has two branches in the city. Their dishes sell out fast, so it'd be best to head there before lunch time.
YumYum Restaurant
Situated in the beautiful Shangri-La Hotel, Yum Yum Restaurant is among the locals' many favourite spots to dine at. It offers an interesting Nyonya and Thai food with Chinese influences that make them stand out. The classic dishes include sambal petai prawns, assam fish head and Yum Yum egg. It can get crowded here, so it'd be best to head there early or call ahead for reservations.
Troika Sky Dining
Offering fine dining, the impressive Troika Sky Dining undoubtedly stands out from the pack. Set on the 23rd floor of Tower B of The Troika, it goes without saying that the cloud-skimming views here are something else entirely. The food is what helped it stand out.

Montessori was born in Italy in 1870 with progressive parents, who frequently communicated with the country’s leading thinkers and scholars. This enlightened family environment provided Montessori with many advantages over other young girls of the time.
Her mother’s support was vital for some important decisions, such as her further study in a technical school after her elementary education. Her parents’ support also proved to be essential for her decision to study medicine, a field that was dominated by men.
Soon after graduating, in 1896, Montessori began work as a voluntary assistant in a clinic at the University of Rome, where she cared for children with learning difficulties. The rooms were empty, with just a few pieces of furniture. One day, she found that the children were enthusiastically playing with breadcrumbs(面包屑) that had dropped on the floor. It then occurred to her that the origin of some intellectual disabilities could be related with poverty. With the right learning materials, these and other young minds could be trained, Montessori concluded.
The observation would lead Montessori to develop a new method of education that focused on providing better stimulation during the sensitive periods of childhood.
At its centre was the principle(原则) that all the learning materials should be child-sized and designed to appeal to all the senses. In addition, each child should also be allowed to move and act freely, and use their creativity and problem-solving skills. Teachers took the role of guides, supporting the children without press or control.
Montessori opened her first Children’s House in 1907. When the Fascists(法西斯主义者) first came into power in Italy in 1922, they welcomed her movement at the beginning. But they soon came to oppose the emphasis on the children’s freedom of expression. Montessori s values had always been about human respect and the rights of children and women, but the Fascists wanted to use her work and her fame
Things reached a breaking point when the Fascist tried to influence the schools’ educational content, and in 1934 Montessori and her son decided to leave Italy. She didn’t return to her homeland until 1947, and she continued to write about and develop her method until her death in 1952, at the age of 81.
24. What was the main reason for Montessori to develop a new educational method
A. Her experience as a voluntary assistant in a clinic.
B. Her family’s supportive influence on her education.
C. Her decision to study medicine, a field dominated by men.
D. Her observation of children playing with breadcrumbs happily.
25. What was a central principle of Montessori’s educational method
A. Focusing on group competition.
B. Taking control of children’s action.
C. Providing one-size-fits-all learning materials.
D. Creating a free and child-centered environment.
26. Why did Montessori decide to leave Italy in 1934
A. She was offered a better job in a different country.
B. She was forced to give up her work and her fame.
C. She wanted to avoid the influence from the Fascist.
D. She wanted to explore other countries and cultures.
27. Which of the following words can best describe Montessori in this passage
A. Enthusiastic and kind. B. Observant and innovative.
C. Cooperative and generous. D. Traditional and emotional.
C
In today’s digital age, where a vast ocean of information is just a click away, the question arises: can one learn too much because no individual can grasp the entirety of human knowledge. However, there exists a phenomenon where too much learning can lead to inaction, a state of being flooded with too much information.
Consider a situation where you’re eager to achieve a particular goal. You begin by conducting lots of research, diving deep into the subject. As you absorb more information, it paradoxically (矛盾地) feels like your understanding weakens. Each new concept or strategy reveals further layers, making the goal seem more complicated and out of reach.
This situation is a common trap: the endless pursuit (追求)of more information. Although gaining comprehensive knowledge is valuable, that is to say there’s nothing wrong with learning a lot, issues arise when this pursuit affects practical application. If learning continuously prevents you from starting, you’ll find yourself stuck, unable to achieve your desired outcomes.
A more effective approach to achieving goals is to strike a balance between learning and doing. Gather necessary information and then shift into action quickly, even if you feel somewhat unprepared. This is often the best way to learn, as hands-on experience provides insights that theoretical (理论的)knowledge alone cannot.
The comparison with a baby learning to walk is a good example here. A baby doesn’t learn to walk by sitting and analyzing the process. Instead, it learns by attempting to walk, falling, and then understanding from each fall what works and what doesn’t. Through repeated effort, walking is eventually mastered. This method applies to goal achievement too. By engaging in action, learning from the outcomes, and adjusting accordingly, you gradually move closer to your goals.
In summary, while the pursuit of knowledge is valuable, it’s crucial not to let it become a barrier to action. Learning should be a stepping stone to doing, not an end in itself. It’s through the interaction of gathering knowledge and applying it that we can truly progress towards our ambitions.
28. What stops people from achieving the goal
A. The distraction caused by unrelated tasks.
B. The inability to find relevant information.
C. The desire to learn basic concepts or strategies.
D. The confusion caused by too much information.
29. What does the author try to advocate in Paragraphs 3&4
A. Sticking to continuous learning.
B. Gaining as much knowledge as possible.
C. Taking practical action without delay.
D. Focusing more on theoretical knowledge.
30. Why is the example “baby learning to walk” mentioned in paragraph 5
A. To compare different learning styles.
B. To illustrate learning through action and experience.
C. To show the significance of making mistakes.
D. To emphasize the necessity for parental guidance.
31. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. The Process of Absorbing Information
B. The Harmony of Learning and Doing
C. The Pursuit of Advanced Knowledge
D. The importance of Hands-on Experience
D
Even if you haven’t held a conversation with Siri or Alexa, you’ve likely encountered a chatbot online. They often appear in a chat window that pops up with a friendly greeting: Thank you for visiting our site.How can I help you today Depending on the site, the chatbot is programmed to respond accordingly and even ask follow-up questions.
Chatbots are a form of conversational AI designed to simplify human interaction with computers. They are programmed to simulate human conversation and exhibit intelligent behavior that is equivalent to that of a human.
Chatbots communicate through speech or text. Both rely on artificial intelligence technologies like machine learning and natural language processing (NLP), which is a branch of artificial intelligence that teaches machines to read, analyze and interpret human language. This technology gives chatbots a baseline for understanding language structure and meaning. NLP, in essence, allows the computer to understand what you are asking and how to appropriately respond.
With developments in deep learning and reinforcement learning, chatbots can interpret more complexities in language and improve the dynamic nature of conversation between human and machine. Essentially, a chatbot tries to match what you’ve asked to an intent that it understands. The more a chatbot communicates with you, the more it understands and the more it learns to communicate like you and others with similar questions. Your positive responses reinforce its answers, and then it uses those answers again.
From customer service chatbots online to personal assistants in our homes,chatbots have started to enter our lives. In almost every industry, companies are using chatbots to help customers easily navigate their websites, answer simple questions and direct people to the relevant points of contact. Personal assistants like Siri and Alexa are designed to respond to a wide range of scenarios and queries, from current weather and news updates to personal calendars, music selections and random questions.
32．Why does the author mention Siri and Alexa in Paragraph 1
A．To explain how a chatbot works. B．To show where to find a chatbot.
C．To give examples of chatbots. D．To compare different chatbots.
33．What is the basis of chatbots
A．Language study. B．Data transmission.
C．Social interaction. D．Natural language processing.
34．What does the underlined word “reinforce” in paragraph 4 mean
A．Inspire. B．Strengthen. C．Organize. D．Match.
35．What is the last paragraph mainly about
A．The future trend of chatbots. B．The author’s predictions.
C．The effects of chatbots. D．The applications of chatbots.

Apologizing for a mistake might seem difficult, but it will help you repair and improve your relationships with others after that offense.
Acknowledge the offense. This is an essential element of a good apology. 36 . Apologies are most likely to be well-received if you show that you recognize who was responsible and who was harmed. For example, saying “I made a mistake” is more effective than saying “mistakes were made”, which fails to clarify responsibility.
37 . In some cases, it’s helpful to explain an offense, especially to explain that it was not intentional and that it will not happen again. But explanations that are long-winded, sound like excuses, or blame the victim (e.g.You were really getting on my nerves.) tend to have an opposite effect.
Express regret. 38 . Expressing these feelings communicates that you recognize and regret the suffering you caused. Be careful of phrases like “That was uncharacteristic of me.” 39 . Instead, acknowledge your disappointment in yourself and make your commitment to improve.
Tell them how you’ll change. Let them know how you’ll change and what you’d do to make that possible. For instance, if you’ve been late once again, instead of just apologizing, share how you’d keep an early alarm to be on time! 40 .
A. Provide a proper explanation
B. Express your intention clearly.
C. But many apologies don’t do this enough.
D. When you hurt someone, it’s natural to feel shame or regret
E. A true apology is one where you promise it won’t be repeated again.
F. This might show that you aren't taking full ownership for what happened.
G. This will enable you to know what means the most to the offended person.

My Time to Shine
When I was a boy, I always wore turtleneck shirts because I was so sensitive and shy. I worked hard to earn exceptional marks and always tried to behave well. I was younger than everyone else because my good marks had allowed me to skip second grade, but this added nothing to my already low self-confidence.
When I was 14, I moved in with my dad in a new neighborhood, but he was always so busy and had little time for me. It seemed that he was always criticising me or demanding me too much. I began to hate coming home from school every day. I sank further into my low self-esteem (自尊心) and was filled with feeling unappreciated and alone.
One day, my aunt called. This seemed like a miracle (奇迹) to me. Aunt Ginette usually only called once a year, on my birthday. She said she had just seen some young teenagers participate in a public speaking contest, and she thought I should try it, too. She told me she firmly believed I could perform on stage like the other kids since she had seen me do skits (幽默小品) for the family at Christmas. I was astonished. Me Onstage In a public speaking contest I was hesitant. But Aunt Ginette was so confident and seemed really serious. Feeling her strong belief, I went against all odds and agreed to enter the contest.
All that winter, twice a week after dinner, I took three different buses for the three-hour round-trip to practice in Ville, where the competition would take place. Although my dad really did love me and wanted the best for me, he didn’t support this new dream, fearing it would take up my homework time and impact my academic performance. But I remained a top performer in school and never missed a day.

Cultural heritage protection
It is universally acknowledged that cultural heritage sites are of great significance, which tell the story of human civilization. Besides, having survived for a long time, they are valuable cultural resources, helping us pass our traditional culture on to future generations.
However, some cultural heritage sites in our country are facing a variety of dangers, many of which are in urgent need of protection. Consequently, cultural heritage protection should be at the top of the agenda for the benefit of all mankind.
We all share a joint responsibility to protect and preserve them. To begin with, people’s awareness of cultural heritage protection should be enhanced. Additionally, the government ought to shoulder the main responsibility to protect them. If necessary, laws should be made to punish those who destroy them on purpose.

Four months later, the big night arrived. Waiting anxiously alongside the other competitors, I couldn’t keep from trembling. Taking a deep breath, I tried my best to control my emotions, murmuring to myself, “You can do it!” Finally, it was my turn. I adjusted my clothes, confidently rose to my feet and strode (大步走) onto the stage. I stood there and firmly began my speech, which I had practiced hundreds of times. Words smoothly flew out of my mouth like a beautiful melody, and it was then that I spotted my father in the audience.
When I saw my father’s face, his eyes were shining－he was so proud. Somehow, I gained energy from his expression and finished the speech smoothly. Sitting by my dad, I awaited the result and the previous nervousness was replaced by a sense of relief. Dad gently patted my shoulder, saying, “Well done,” and gave me a big hug. “I now realize how wrong I was to criticize you all the time. I should have appreciated you more.” Hearing this, tears welled up in my eyes, blurring the surroundings. It turned out I got the first prize and we cheered happily. Since then, I have looked at the world with brand-new confidence, heading toward my bright future.
