After some blood tests, Dr Stubs stood before me, a tall man, but short on personality and sporting a cold expression. “You have systemic lupus.” he said matter-of-factly. “Lupus,” he continued, “is an auto-immune disease and ...” I remember certain details but mostly I remember him talking about children. “Children are no harm. But childbirth would jumpstart additional symptoms that could be life threatening. You already have two kids anyway.”
As I got up to leave, shaken and drained, he said his parting words, “I would discourage any further research. There is no cure and nothing can prevent its progression.”
Still, I did research lupus and its symptoms — tiredness and joint pain — were both consistent with what I was experiencing. And eventually some major organs could be affected, causing shutdown and possibly death.
I studied and found out that echinacea had a record in making immune system stronger. I decided that along with the plant I would strengthen my mindset by immersing myself in my family with my one-year-old son and three-year-old daughter.
After another visit, I decided never to go back to Dr. Stubs. How could one endure repeatedly hear desperately words coming from an emotionless mouth even though they were truth The years passed. When I would feel tired and achy I pulled support from my children and their laughter.
Finally, after eight years, I went to Dr. Kirstein who was recommended by a friend. She stood there holding my hand and looking into my eyes warmly.
“So, let’s talk a little.”
Instantly my defenses were down. Before I knew it, she had me running on and on about my children, my husband, my life and dreams. I told her about all the meaningful activities I was involved in, those things I might have never done without the disease.
After several follow-up tests, and greater research into my family history, Dr. Kirstein came to conclusive answer. I did not have systemic lupus. There must be something wrong with the initial tests 8 years before.
I didn’t know whether I should jump for joy or scream because I had been living the last eight years in fear of a fatal disease. But then I realized that I had been living every day, not so much in fear, but happiness. Everyday was a gift and I knew it.
24. What did Dr. Stubs tell the author about lupus
A. It can be cured easily. B. Further research is necessary.
C. Childbirth would make it worse. D. It only affects minor organs.
25. What did the author do after leaving Dr. Stubs
A. She gave up all hope. B. She did more research on lupus.
C. She stopped seeing any doctors. D. She started taking a lot of medicine.
26. Why did the author decide not to go back to Dr. Stubs
A. Because he was not professional.
B. Because his words were too inspiring.
C. Because he didn’t offer any treatment.
D. Because his attitude was cold and unfriendly.
27. What can we infer about the author from the passage
A. She is a strong and positive person.
B. She is irresponsible for her health.
C. She is easily influenced by others.
D. She is too stubborn to listen to advice.
C
The ability to use the left hand is referred to as left-handedness. Left-handedness is actually more common in the male population than in females. There are a number of myths about them.
It is difficult for left-handed children to learn writing of the alphabet, without personal tutoring. Not true at all. Observe the left-handed toddler. Everyone else is more bothered about his left-handedness than he himself is. The left-handed child adapts to writing, drawing and all other activities that require him to hold a writing tool as early as the right-handed. In fact, many left-handed people display neater handwriting than their right-handed partners.
Lefties have a lesser chance of surviving a hand-to-hand fight. This is anything but true. History bears witness to the advantage left-handedness had during hand-to-hand fights and even within the boxing ring. In fact, a common observation is that the left-handed fighter is able to strike a strong surprise attack on the open, unprotected right side.
Left-handed people are many a time at the disadvantage of using tools designed for the right-handed. Well, this is true, but today, there is a whole range of tools and equipment being designed for left-handed people. Many right-handed tools can be molded to suit the needs of the left-handed craftsman. Even the computer mouse has been challenged in use and the touch pad provides a left-handed professional equal opportunity.
Research shows that left-handed people are in fact high achievers. This is because their brains are structured to widen their abilities. A number of mathematical, artistic and sporting geniuses were and are left-handed. However, most left-handers over the world, might have, at some stage in their life, been on the receiving end of devalued comments regarding their choice of hand. I am sure this list and discussion about left-handed people would be reason enough to be proud of being left-handed.
28. Who is more likely to be left-handed
A. Females. B. Males. C. Children. D. Elderly people.
29. What is true about tools for left-handed people
A. There are no tools designed for them.
B. Only a few tools are designed for them.
C. Many right-handed tools can be molded for them.
D They always have to use right-handed tools.
30. Why are left-handed people considered high achievers
A. Because they have better tools.
B. Because they are more determined.
C. Because their brains are structured differently.
D. Because they receive more support.
31. What is the author’s opinion about left-handed children learning to write
A. They need personal tutoring.
B. They adapt as early as right-handed children.
C. They have more difficulty than right-handed children.
D. They are slower in learning all activities.

How to Build Self-Confidence
Self-confidence is an essential quality for a successful life. It allows you to face challenges, take risks, and pursue your goals with determination. However, building self-confidence is not always easy. It takes time, effort, and practice. Here are some tips on how to build self-confidence.
First, set achievable goals. When you set goals that are too high, you are more likely to fail, which can damage your self-confidence. On the other hand, when you set achievable goals, you are more likely to succeed, which can boost your self-confidence. ___32___ For example, if you want to learn a new language, start by learning a few basic words and phrases each day.
Second, face your fears. Fear is a major obstacle to self-confidence. When you avoid facing your fears, you are giving them power over you. However, when you face your fears head-on, you are taking back your power and building your self-confidence. ___33___ For instance, if you are afraid of public speaking, start by giving a short speech to a small group of people.
Third, learn from your mistakes. Everyone makes mistakes, but the key is to learn from them. When you learn from your mistakes, you are showing yourself that you are capable of growing and improving. ___34___ Instead of beating yourself up over your mistakes, analyze them and figure out what you can do differently next time.
Fourth, surround yourself with positive people. The people you surround yourself with can have a big impact on your self-confidence. If you surround yourself with negative people, they will bring you down and make you feel worse about yourself. However, if you surround yourself with positive people, they will lift you up and inspire you to be your best self. ___35___
Finally, take care of yourself. Taking care of your physical and mental health is essential for building self-confidence. When you feel good about yourself, you are more likely to have confidence in your abilities. ___36___ This includes eating a healthy diet, getting enough sleep, exercising regularly, and taking time to relax.
A. This will help you build confidence gradually and achieve your long-term goals.
B. So, make an effort to spend time with people who support and encourage you.
C. Don’t be afraid to ask for help when you need it.
D. Also, make sure to celebrate your successes, no matter how small they may be.
E. This will give you the confidence to take on more challenging tasks in the future.
F. When you make a mistake, don’t see it as a failure, but as an opportunity to learn.
G. Try something that scares you every day, and gradually increase the level of difficulty.

【答案】Dear fellow schoolmates,
We are facing a common problem–excessive use of our eyes. Many of us spend long hours on electronic devices, which leads to eye strain and deteriorating vision. It's crucial to take immediate action.
Protecting our eyesight is essential for academic performance and overall well-being. We can practice good eye habits like the 20-20-20 rule, every 20 minutes, take a 20-second break and look at something 20 feet away. Also, maintaining good lighting while reading and keeping a balanced distance from screens can significantly reduce eye fatigue.
Let's work together to preserve our vision and make our “Eye Care Week” a success. Join English Club activities to learn more about eye care and spread awareness.
Sincerely,
Li Hua
