One day when the ladies got together for a card game, they started missing about the “old days” with Malaw and PaPaw. They remembered how MaMaw made and sent cakes to families who 15 lost someone.

As a kid, I often suffered from nosebleeds. My parents had some knowledge of traditional Chinese medicine, and they said this was caused by my love for 41 fruits. Lychees, my favorite, had given me “too much heat”, 42 it didn’t stop me from eating them by the dozens. After we moved from China to Canada, lychees became 43 to find. Whenever we drove to Montreal’s Chinatown to shop, I would scan all the fruit markets for my red jewels.
As I’ve grown older, my love for unusual fruits has only become 44 . Trying these fruits widens my horizons. Just when I thought I had met every pleasant fruity smell in the world, the lulo 45 at my favorite fruit shop. I bought a couple to make desserts. Its 46 left me wide-eyed. The strong, sweet scent made my whole kitchen smell nice for days. It was such a rare smell that I’d rather believe it was picked from a food scientist’s imagination than accept that this fruit just happened to 47 in some people’s backyards.
I try most fruits, only a couple of times because I always love newer things. But there is one I keep 48 to: the soursop. When it is ripe, it tastes wonderful—it’s hard to describe, somewhat like a combination of orange, banana, pineapple, strawberry and papaya. Wait just one more day, though, and it starts to brown, giving off a(an) 49 smell. This rapid decaying (腐烂的) process is only another 50 that time and tide wait for no man. So don’t let our sweetest days go to waste. “Taste” the joys around us as they come along.

（2024·江苏南京·二模）I do believe that everyone is given a chance in life. My son, Gary, was given his chance with cooking.
We ran a small restaurant and lived over it. From a very early age, Gary would come down and talk to our customers. It has 51 a good start in his life. By the age of ten, Gary was in the 52 every weekend, so he always made some pocket money. He also had a lot of self-discipline (自律). He used to 53 even before me in the morning. If you run a family business, it was nice to see him helping out.
Gary wasn’t so good at schoolwork, but he 54 so much in the kitchen. By the age of 15, he was 55 any of the cooks working there, and sometimes he was even left in charge of (负责) the kitchen.

He understood when I said to him, “Gary, if you’re going to get anywhere in life, you’ve got to do it by the age of 30. If you haven’t done it by then, it’s too 59 . ”
None of us can believe that Gary’s TV cookery series has become such a great success.

The other day our English teacher asked us to read an article in the textbook called “Stonehenge—Can Anyone Explain Why It Is There ” While reading, I couldn’t stop thinking of my 61 of Stonehenge last summer when my family went to the UK. It is one of the most wonderful experiences I’ve ever had.
Stonehenge is a 62 stone group made up of a large number of heavy stones. It is said that they were put together almost 5,000 years ago. It took us about two hours to get there from London by bus.
When we 63 there at about 10 a.m., visitors of all ages had already begun their trips. I could not wait to join them. Some men 64 uniforms guided us to walk along the paths around the large stone monuments (石碑). Walking along them, I felt like stepping back 5,000 years. I 65 each stone might weigh several tons. Looking at them in amazement, I wanted to know how ancient people could make those large stones stand without the help of modern 66 . Questions came into my mind: Why did they build Stonehenge How long did it take them to build it I could not 67 how many people worked together to build these monuments. The true purpose of building Stonehenge may remain a mystery. But its 68 to attract and encourage people has lasted for thousands of years. Without great teamwork, Stonehenge would never have been built.
As we stopped to take pictures, I saw a blonde girl 69 the stone monuments. She was getting inspiration (灵感) from them for her artwork.
Stonehenge is a very great place that has amazed people from all over the world for 70 . If you ever get the chance to visit England, take the time to see the great stone monuments for yourself.

Do you know that there are twelve Chinese zodiac sign, each one represented by an animal Each one of the twelve animals has their own characteristics and attributes, and each year is represented by a 71 animal. For example, 1990 was the year of the Horse, 72 2010 was the year of the Tiger. In Chinese culture, some people believe that a person’s success, personality and marriage are based on the animal of the year in which they were born.
However, the origin of the zodiac signs is based on a legend. Long ago, the Jade Emperor wanted to 73 twelve animals to be his guards. So, all animals on Earth were ordered to take part in a 74 race. The first twelve animals to swim across the fast river would be the winners of the race, and therefore would have a year of the zodiac specially given to 75 .
The Rat came first because he jumped on the back of the Ox to cross the river, and then suddenly jumped down from the Ox and ran to the Emperor’s feet to win first place. As Tiger and Rabbit are both fast and competitive, they both raced to the finish line, with Tiger being faster. Dragons are naturally eye-catching, so the Emperor immediately noticed it, who said his son could be sixth. Immediately after, Snake said Dragon was his adopted father, so he came 76 . Then, as Horse and Goat were both 77 and kind to one another, they let each other go first, so they came seventh and eighth. The ninth animal to finish the race was Monkey, as he jumped between trees and stones to catch up with the other animals after falling behind. Finally, the last three animals to finish the race were the Rooster, Dog and Pig.
Some people wonder 78 the cat isn’t one of the twelve Chinese zodiac animals, and many people believe that the Cat joined the Rat in jumping on the Ox’s back to cross the river, but the Rat pushed it into the water, so it was washed away and didn’t 79 the Emperor in time to get a ranking. No wonder cats and rats are always 80 in our daily lives.
The story is well-known in Chinese culture, and although it’s made up, it’s definitely interesting to learn about and tell your friends and family about!

Besides this offline form, the Palace Museum has also created its official 118 for them. Here, online visitors may go on a visit at the museum in the 119 of a comic book.

“Congratulations! Your spring has arrived!” It was the 121 from his friends to the 47-year-old actor Zhang Songwen early this year. He became well-known 122 his role of Gao Qiqiang in the hot TV drama series The Knockout.
Zhang learnt acting at 25 years old. In order to 123 his putonghua, he put a stone in his mouth to correct his pronunciation. Also, he spent more time practising than others every day to make his acting skills better. 124 , he was refused hundreds of times or just could play some supporting roles after he graduated, simply because he wasn’t thought to have high-level acting skills or good looks by others. At that time, he lived in a shared house and couldn’t 125 to support his family. This made him able to experience common people’s life, which helped him bring the roles of “nobody” (小人物) 126 on screen.
If Zhang lost heart and gave up, could he be a famous actor “Never look down on yourself! Never be afraid of your 127 !” said Zhang. Even great people have their own weak points. If you lose confidence and get lost in your weak points for a long time, you will completely keep yourself 128 in the cage of self-doubts. The way to get out of it is to begin looking at what you have and what you don’t have. Bravely 129 your weak points and work hard at them. “You are the lead role in your life. Believe that you are 130 to be useful and maybe you will be a shining star some day.” Zhang added. Believe that you are a seed, and give it some water and sunshine. One day, when spring comes, it may become a tall tree.

In the city of London about 150 years ago, many people started to get very sick. The sickness they had was called “cholera”(霍乱). The disease caused 141 among Londoners because nobody knew how to prevent it or cure it.
Most doctors thought that people got cholera from breathing in 142 air. They told patients to open their windows and breathe in fresh air as much as possible. Some doctors told their patients to drink lots of water or take certain medicine. However, their advice did not 143 . They did not know what to do.
John Snow was a doctor and scientist who had a(n) 144 idea. He thought that cholera might have been spreading through the water that people were drinking. Maybe polluted water was making everyone sick.
At first, nobody paid much attention to Dr. Snow. They believed that cholera was spread through the air and that water was not the 145 . Dr. Snow developed a plan to prove his theory (理论). He went to different neighbourhoods in London and 146 their water. He also counted the number of sick people in each neighbourhood. It was just as he had thought! The neighbourhoods with the cleanest water had the 147 sick people. The places with the dirtiest water had the greatest number of sick people. This proved his theory that cholera was spread through dirty water. The other doctors finally 148 that Dr. Snow was right. All over London, people stopped drinking water that might be polluted. Almost 149 , people stopped getting sick. All it took was clean water.
Thanks to Dr. John Snow, we also know how to stop many other sicknesses that can be spread through dirty water. We would not know about the risks of dirty water if it were not for Dr. John Snow’s hard work and 150 . Dr. Snow may not be as famous as Batman or Wonder Woman, but he is a hero.

I used to think the whole purpose of life was looking for happiness. What truly makes people happy What I discovered changed my life. Looking for happiness may make people stressed and 151 . Even though life is getting better by nearly every standard, more people feel hopeless, sad and alone. According to the research, what causes this is not a lack(缺乏) of happiness but a lack of having 152 in life.
Many psychologists(心理学家) think of happiness as feeling comfortable or good in the moment. Meaning, though, is deeper. The famous psychologist Marin Seligman says meaning comes from belonging(归属感), achieving something beyond yourself and 153 from the best inside you. Belonging, purpose, transcendence(超越), telling stories—these are the four parts of meaning. We need to build them inside our families and organizations to help people 154 an excellent person. But living a meaningful life takes work. There’s a long way to go. As each day goes by, we’re creating our lives, 155 to our story.
I remember a powerful experience I had with my father. Several months after I graduated from college, my dad had a 156 heart attack. He survived, and when I asked him what was going through his mind as he faced death, he said all he could think about was needing to live, 157 he could be there for my brother and me, and this gave him the courage to fight for life. When doctors were giving him an operation, he didn’t feel afraid. 158 , he repeated our names. He wanted our names to be the last words he spoke on earth if he died.
My dad lives a common, but a good life. Lying there facing death, he had a 159 to live: love. His sense of belonging inside his family, his purpose as a dad, his unusual thinking, repeating our names—these are why he survived. That’s the story he tells himself. That’s the 160 of meaning. Happiness comes and goes. But whether life is good or bad, having meaning gives you something to hold on to.
151．A．amazed B．cheerful C．unhappy D．comfortable
152．A．ability B．meaning C．progress D．direction
153．A．hiding B．accepting C．promising D．developing
