“When you experience a difficult period of time, there’s nothing wrong with crying a little, but you have to soldier on,” according to late billionaire Charlie Munger. “You can cry, all right. But you can’t quit.” Munger said that challenging times are unavoidable in everyone’s life. What matters is how you deal with them and then move on.
On the surface, Munger’s life may have appeared perfect. He was a successful lawyer and investor, extremely wealthy, and he lived a long, seemingly happy life. But his struggles and sadness were intense: a divorce in his 20s, blindness in one eye as a result of failed surgery and the death of his 9-year-old son Teddy, who had leukemia (白血病).
“Your ability to recover from struggles or disappointments, whether in your personal life or career, is essential for your success and happiness in the long run,” experts say. Often, that can mean properly feeling sad or processing your disappointment before moving forward. As Munger noted, crying can be a healthy way of doing that. It literally helps you let go of emotional suffering through the release of endorphins (内啡肽), research shows. In contrast, repressing (压抑) those emotions can make a variety of mental and physical health problems severer.
“The iron rule of life is: Everybody struggles,” Munger said. People who have the strength to carry on are more likely to live happily, sometimes, learning a valuable lesson in the process. “It’s your only option. You can’t bring back the dead. You can’t cure the dying child. You can’t do all kinds of things,” said Munger. “You have to move forward.”
19. What does the underlined phrase “soldier on” probably mean
A. Keep going. B. Take a break. C. Stay committed. D. Be passionate.
20 What can be learned about Munger according to the text
A. He lived a life free of sadness and stress.
B. He was always successful and never failed.
C. He experienced significant personal losses.
D. He was a millionaire known for his success.
21. What does the research suggest about the role of crying during tough times
A. It is a typical sign of weakness. B. It can only be beneficial for a short time.
C. It is a helpful way to process emotional pain. D. It promotes someone’s ability to recover immediately.
22. What’s Munger’s suggestion for dealing with hard times
A. Focusing on the positive aspects of life.
B. Accepting the challenges and keeping on.
C. Seeking professional help to cope with struggles.
D. Avoiding sadness and focusing on moving forward.
C
Buying clothes for special events, hiding the price tickets and returning them to the store the next day has for years been the method of money-saving shoppers. Today people are doing it just for social media.
A survey conducted by the credit card company Barclaycard showed that nearly one in ten UK shoppers admits to buying clothing only to post photos on social media for likes. After the “outfit (装束) of the day” (OOTD) makes it online, they return it back to the store. According to Barclaycard, the “try before you buy” policy of online retailers (零售商) — where people pay for clothing they order online after they try it on at home — could be leading to this rising trend.
But the rise of social media means that everyone, not just superstars, expects to build and maintain a personal brand. Since we’re recording our lives and posting them online for public judgement, getting caught in the same outfits more than once should be avoided. And the cost of all those outfits of the day adds up, which makes returning a popular way.
There are brands that make clothes specially for social media shoppers, like Fashion Nova. “These are clothes made for social media: meant to be worn once, photographed and abandoned,” Allison P. Davis wrote in her report about the brand. Another favourite of the social media age is Rent the Runway, which lets customers rent designer clothing for a fee.
Some, however, are moving in the opposite direction. Groups promoting “work uniforms” have increased greatly in recent years, aiming to free women from “the trouble of clothing decisions”. The concept of the “capsule wardrobe (胶囊衣橱)”, which calls for purchasing a small number of high-quality pieces instead of lots of trendy throwaway clothes, is also making a comeback.
23. What does the survey by Barclaycard suggest
A. Britons follow the fashion stars closely.
B. Some Britons over-order and return clothes.
C. Britons try on clothes before online purchases.
D. Some Britons send outfits back after taking pictures.
24. What’s Fashion Nova’s special service
A. Renting top designers’ clothes.
B. Offering customers single-use clothes.
C. Creating unique shopping experiences.
D. Helping shoppers improve their clothing style.
25. What’s the idea behind the “capsule wardrobe”
A. Better fewer, but better. B. Less addition, but more enjoyment.
C. Less uniform, and more freedom. D. More choices, and less trouble.
26. Why does the author write the text
A. To compare different wearing trends.
B. To introduce Britain’s new wearing trend.
C. To support buying high-quality clothes.
D. To criticize the “try before you buy” policy.
D
It seems that the era of fancy, well-known restaurants has ended as people are now more interested in finding which hole-in-the-wall restaurant (苍蝇小馆) has the best food. Nowadays, it’s more fulfilling to post hole-in-the-wall restaurants you have found on Xiaohongshu and be asked for addresses in the comment section.
Hole-in-the-wall restaurants are small restaurants that are not highly decorated but have many delicious local dishes. Though they have long served as the “canteen” of their surrounding neighborhoods, these hole-in-the-wall restaurants have gradually retreated from the busy streets as more high-rise structures are built.
Now, hole-in-the-wall restaurants are often found in the corners of small lanes and alleys in different parts of a city and the most popular ones usually have a history of more than 10 years and are run as family businesses.
Many hole-in-the-wall restaurant lovers desire a more natural lifestyle, with some viewing their dining habits as a protest against consumerism. A native of Wuhan surnamed Tian, appreciates that these humble diners cook food with care. In contrast, some internet-famous restaurants only use pre-made food or simply stir-fry their dishes, she complained. This results in the foods having similar tastes.
A university student surnamed Zhou, tried a hole-in-the-wall restaurant with her boyfriend after friends recommended it to her. She ordered three dishes, which only cost 64 yuan. “The food tastes good, and it’s cheap,” she said.
Still, there are risks for both owners and fans of hole-in-the-wall restaurants. Zou Zhiping, a professor at Hubei University of Economics, said that due to limitations in funds and management as well as lack of food safety awareness, there could be hygiene and food security issues at these locations.
To solve these problems, Zou suggested that the government provide training and more support for these restaurants. These restaurants should also improve their quality of service.
27. What is the author’s attitude to the hole-in-the-wall restaurants
A. Approving. B. Skeptical. C. Neutral. D. Indifferent.
28. What do we know about the hole-in-the-wall restaurants
A They are often run as family businesses in the back lanes and alleys.
B. Pre-made food or simply stir-fried dishes are highly recommended there.
C. Customers can appreciate a natural and overdecorated lifestyle there.
D. Delicious and costly local specialities are served in those humble diners.
29. According to Zou Zhiping, what is NOT one of the causes of the risks
A. Limitations in funds. B. Imperfect management.
C. Off-the-map locations. D. Lack of safety awareness.
30. In which column do we probably find the article
A. Economy. B. Cuisine. C. Security. D. Management.

71. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整短文。
On a summer vacation morning, I went to a bookstore with my mom. As we stepped through the entrance, a large sign immediately captured my attention. It read, “Books: Open Doors to New Worlds. Discover, Dream, Delight.” These words seemed to dance in the sunlight, leading me to explore all the wonders they promised.
When we made our way between the shelves, I spotted a beautiful book with a cover that was a masterpiece of colors and images. Unconsciously, my hand reached out to trace the outlines of the illustrations. I turned to my mom, my eyes begging for this book, but she shook her head with a sad expression. Our family was going through a tough time financially, and there was no room for such an expensive purchase. Disappointed, I dragged my feet and left.
The next day, unable to resist the temptation, I found myself back at the store. I slipped the book into my bag, my hands trembling with a mix of excitement and guilt. Just as I was about to leave, the store owner noticed me. I froze, my face flushing with shame as I was caught red-handed. He stared at me, from whose eyes I could feel the judgement. I wanted to disappear, but there was no escape. With a shaky voice, I admitted stealing the book, and promised to make things right. As I walked out, the sign seemed to scold me. It was a reminder that the world I entered by a wrong path was disheartening.
I walked home slowly, each step filled with fear. When I saw my mom, I burst into tears and told her the truth. She looked disappointed, but there was a glimmer of relief in her eyes that I was honest. She hugged me and said softly, “You made a mistake, but you had the courage to face it. Remember, there are always right ways to get what you want.” I nodded. After a moment of silence, my mom said, “Let’s make things right.”
注意：
(1). 续写词数应为150个左右；
(2). 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
As we walked back into the store, my heart was so heavy.

When I finished my summer job, the owner handed me the book with a smile.

Buying clothes for special events, hiding the price tickets and returning them to the store the next day has for years been the method of money-saving shoppers. Today people are doing it just for social media.
A survey conducted by the credit card company Barclaycard showed that nearly one in ten UK shoppers admits to buying clothing only to post photos on social media for likes. After the “outfit (装束) of the day” (OOTD) makes it online, they return it back to the store. According to Barclaycard, the “try before you buy” policy of online retailers (零售商) — where people pay for clothing they order online after they try it on at home — could be leading to this rising trend.
But the rise of social media means that everyone, not just superstars, expects to build and maintain a personal brand. Since we’re recording our lives and posting them online for public judgement, getting caught in the same outfits more than once should be avoided. And the cost of all those outfits of the day adds up, which makes returning a popular way.
There are brands that make clothes specially for social media shoppers, like Fashion Nova. “These are clothes made for social media: meant to be worn once, photographed and abandoned,” Allison P. Davis wrote in her report about the brand. Another favourite of the social media age is Rent the Runway, which lets customers rent designer clothing for a fee.
Some, however, are moving in the opposite direction. Groups promoting “work uniforms” have increased greatly in recent years, aiming to free women from “the trouble of clothing decisions”. The concept of the “capsule wardrobe (胶囊衣橱)”, which calls for purchasing a small number of high-quality pieces instead of lots of trendy throwaway clothes, is also making a comeback.
23. What does the survey by Barclaycard suggest
A. Britons follow the fashion stars closely.
B. Some Britons over-order and return clothes.
C. Britons try on clothes before online purchases.
D. Some Britons send outfits back after taking pictures.
24. What’s Fashion Nova’s special service
A. Renting top designers’ clothes.
B. Offering customers single-use clothes.
C. Creating unique shopping experiences.
D. Helping shoppers improve their clothing style.
25. What’s the idea behind the “capsule wardrobe”
A. Better fewer, but better. B. Less addition, but more enjoyment.
C. Less uniform, and more freedom. D. More choices, and less trouble.
26. Why does the author write the text
A. To compare different wearing trends.
B. To introduce Britain’s new wearing trend.
C. To support buying high-quality clothes.
D To criticize the “try before you buy” policy.

It seems that the era of fancy, well-known restaurants has ended as people are now more interested in finding which hole-in-the-wall restaurant (苍蝇小馆) has the best food. Nowadays, it’s more fulfilling to post hole-in-the-wall restaurants you have found on Xiaohongshu and be asked for addresses in the comment section.
Hole-in-the-wall restaurants are small restaurants that are not highly decorated but have many delicious local dishes. Though they have long served as the “canteen” of their surrounding neighborhoods, these hole-in-the-wall restaurants have gradually retreated from the busy streets as more high-rise structures are built.
Now, hole-in-the-wall restaurants are often found in the corners of small lanes and alleys in different parts of a city and the most popular ones usually have a history of more than 10 years and are run as family businesses.
Many hole-in-the-wall restaurant lovers desire a more natural lifestyle, with some viewing their dining habits as a protest against consumerism. A native of Wuhan surnamed Tian, appreciates that these humble diners cook food with care. In contrast, some internet-famous restaurants only use pre-made food or simply stir-fry their dishes, she complained. This results in the foods having similar tastes.
A university student surnamed Zhou, tried a hole-in-the-wall restaurant with her boyfriend after friends recommended it to her. She ordered three dishes, which only cost 64 yuan. “The food tastes good, and it’s cheap,” she said.
Still, there are risks for both owners and fans of hole-in-the-wall restaurants. Zou Zhiping, a professor at Hubei University of Economics, said that due to limitations in funds and management as well as lack of food safety awareness, there could be hygiene and food security issues at these locations.
To solve these problems, Zou suggested that the government provide training and more support for these restaurants. These restaurants should also improve their quality of service.
27. What is the author’s attitude to the hole-in-the-wall restaurants
A. Approving. B. Skeptical. C. Neutral. D. Indifferent.
28. What do we know about the hole-in-the-wall restaurants
A. They are often run as family businesses in the back lanes and alleys.
B. Pre-made food or simply stir-fried dishes are highly recommended there.
C. Customers can appreciate a natural and overdecorated lifestyle there.
D. Delicious and costly local specialities are served in those humble diners.
29. According to Zou Zhiping, what is NOT one of the causes of the risks
A. Limitations in funds. B. Imperfect management.
C. Off-the-map locations. D. Lack of safety awareness.
30. In which column do we probably find the article
A. Economy. B. Cuisine. C. Security. D. Management.

第四部分 写作 (满分25分)
71. 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。
On a summer vacation morning, I went to a bookstore with my mom. As we stepped through the entrance, a large sign immediately captured my attention. It read, “Books: Open Doors to New Worlds. Discover, Dream, Delight.” These words seemed to dance in the sunlight, leading me to explore all the wonders they promised.
When we made our way between the shelves, I spotted a beautiful book with a cover that was a masterpiece of colors and images. Unconsciously, my hand reached out to trace the outlines of the illustrations. I turned to my mom, my eyes begging for this book, but she shook her head with a sad expression. Our family was going through a tough time financially, and there was no room for such an expensive purchase. Disappointed, I dragged my feet and left.
The next day, unable to resist the temptation, I found myself back at the store. I slipped the book into my bag, my hands trembling with a mix of excitement and guilt. Just as I was about to leave, the store owner noticed me. I froze, my face flushing with shame as I was caught red-handed. He stared at me, from whose eyes I could feel the judgement. I wanted to disappear, but there was no escape. With a shaky voice, I admitted stealing the book, and promised to make things right. As I walked out, the sign seemed to scold me. It was a reminder that the world I entered by a wrong path was disheartening.
I walked home slowly, each step filled with fear. When I saw my mom, I burst into tears and told her the truth. She looked disappointed, but there was a glimmer of relief in her eyes that I was honest. She hugged me and said softly, “You made a mistake, but you had the courage to face it. Remember, there are always right ways to get what you want.” I nodded. After a moment of silence, my mom said, “Let’s make things right.”

As we walked back into the store, my heart was so heavy.

When I finished my summer job, the owner handed me the book with a smile.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】
As we walked back into the store, my heart was so heavy. However, encouraged by my mom, I gathered the courage and apologized to the store owner. Much to my surprise, the owner came up with an idea that he would give me the book as a reward for helping him in the store. Following his instructions carefully, I worked hard by dusting book covers and arranging books neatly on the shelves. As I was engaged in these tasks during the vacation, I came to realize the value of earning something through honest work.
When I finished my summer job, the owner handed me the book with a smile. I received the book with a sense of pride and gratitude. The owner patted me on the shoulder and offered words of praise. My mom was also proud of me for working diligently for my small dream. This scene made me even more aware of the significance of my efforts. As I walked out of the store, the sign seemed to smile at me. From that moment on, it was a constant reminder that a delightful new world should be unlocked through honesty and kindness.

“When you experience a difficult period of time, there’s nothing wrong with crying a little, but you have to soldier on,” according to late billionaire Charlie Munger. “You can cry, all right. But you can’t quit.” Munger said that challenging times are unavoidable in everyone’s life. What matters is how you deal with them and then move on.
On the surface, Munger’s life may have appeared perfect. He was a successful lawyer and investor, extremely wealthy, and he lived a long, seemingly happy life. But his struggles and sadness were intense: a divorce in his 20s, blindness in one eye as a result of failed surgery and the death of his 9-year-old son Teddy, who had leukemia (白血病).
“Your ability to recover from struggles or disappointments, whether in your personal life or career, is essential for your success and happiness in the long run,” experts say. Often, that can mean properly feeling sad or processing your disappointment before moving forward. As Munger noted, crying can be a healthy way of doing that. It literally helps you let go of emotional suffering through the release of endorphins (内啡肽), research shows. In contrast, repressing (压抑) those emotions can make a variety of mental and physical health problems severer.
“The iron rule of life is: Everybody struggles,” Munger said. People who have the strength to carry on are more likely to live happily, sometimes, learning a valuable lesson in the process. “It’s your only option. You can’t bring back the dead. You can’t cure the dying child. You can’t do all kinds of things,” said Munger. “You have to move forward.”
19. What does the underlined phrase “soldier on” probably mean
A. Keep going. B. Take a break. C. Stay committed. D. Be passionate.
20 What can be learned about Munger according to the text
A. He lived a life free of sadness and stress.
B. He was always successful and never failed.
C. He experienced significant personal losses.
D. He was a millionaire known for his success.
21. What does the research suggest about the role of crying during tough times
A. It is a typical sign of weakness. B. It can only be beneficial for a short time.
C. It is a helpful way to process emotional pain. D. It promotes someone’s ability to recover immediately.
22. What’s Munger’s suggestion for dealing with hard times
A. Focusing on the positive aspects of life.
B. Accepting the challenges and keeping on.
C. Seeking professional help to cope with struggles.
D. Avoiding sadness and focusing on moving forward.

第四部分 写作 (满分25分)
71. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整短文。
On a summer vacation morning, I went to a bookstore with my mom. As we stepped through the entrance, a large sign immediately captured my attention. It read, “Books: Open Doors to New Worlds. Discover, Dream, Delight.” These words seemed to dance in the sunlight, leading me to explore all the wonders they promised.
When we made our way between the shelves, I spotted a beautiful book with a cover that was a masterpiece of colors and images. Unconsciously, my hand reached out to trace the outlines of the illustrations. I turned to my mom, my eyes begging for this book, but she shook her head with a sad expression. Our family was going through a tough time financially, and there was no room for such an expensive purchase. Disappointed, I dragged my feet and left.
The next day, unable to resist the temptation, I found myself back at the store. I slipped the book into my bag, my hands trembling with a mix of excitement and guilt. Just as I was about to leave, the store owner noticed me. I froze, my face flushing with shame as I was caught red-handed. He stared at me, from whose eyes I could feel the judgement. I wanted to disappear, but there was no escape. With a shaky voice, I admitted stealing the book, and promised to make things right. As I walked out, the sign seemed to scold me. It was a reminder that the world I entered by a wrong path was disheartening.
I walked home slowly, each step filled with fear. When I saw my mom, I burst into tears and told her the truth. She looked disappointed, but there was a glimmer of relief in her eyes that I was honest. She hugged me and said softly, “You made a mistake, but you had the courage to face it. Remember, there are always right ways to get what you want.” I nodded. After a moment of silence, my mom said, “Let’s make things right.”

(1). 续写词数应为150个左右；

As we walked back into the store, my heart was so heavy.

“When you experience a difficult period of time, there’s nothing wrong with crying a little, but you have to soldier on,” according to late billionaire Charlie Munger. “You can cry, all right. But you can’t quit.” Munger said that challenging times are unavoidable in everyone’s life. What matters is how you deal with them and then move on.
On the surface, Munger’s life may have appeared perfect. He was a successful lawyer and investor, extremely wealthy, and he lived a long, seemingly happy life. But his struggles and sadness were intense: a divorce in his 20s, blindness in one eye as a result of failed surgery and the death of his 9-year-old son Teddy, who had leukemia (白血病).
“Your ability to recover from struggles or disappointments, whether in your personal life or career, is essential for your success and happiness in the long run,” experts say. Often, that can mean properly feeling sad or processing your disappointment before moving forward. As Munger noted, crying can be a healthy way of doing that. It literally helps you let go of emotional suffering through the release of endorphins (内啡肽), research shows. In contrast, repressing (压抑) those emotions can make a variety of mental and physical health problems severer.
“The iron rule of life is: Everybody struggles,” Munger said. People who have the strength to carry on are more likely to live happily, sometimes, learning a valuable lesson in the process. “It’s your only option. You can’t bring back the dead. You can’t cure the dying child. You can’t do all kinds of things,” said Munger. “You have to move forward.”
19. What does the underlined phrase “soldier on” probably mean
A. Keep going. B. Take a break. C. Stay committed. D. Be passionate.
20. What can be learned about Munger according to the text
A. He lived a life free of sadness and stress.
B. He was always successful and never failed.
C. He experienced significant personal losses.
D. He was a millionaire known for his success.
21. What does the research suggest about the role of crying during tough times
A. It is a typical sign of weakness. B. It can only be beneficial for a short time.
C. It is a helpful way to process emotional pain. D. It promotes someone’s ability to recover immediately.
22. What’s Munger’s suggestion for dealing with hard times
A. Focusing on the positive aspects of life.
B. Accepting the challenges and keeping on.
C. Seeking professional help to cope with struggles.
D. Avoiding sadness and focusing on moving forward.

Buying clothes for special events, hiding the price tickets and returning them to the store the next day has for years been the method of money-saving shoppers. Today people are doing it just for social media.
A survey conducted by the credit card company Barclaycard showed that nearly one in ten UK shoppers admits to buying clothing only to post photos on social media for likes. After the “outfit (装束) of the day” (OOTD) makes it online, they return it back to the store. According to Barclaycard, the “try before you buy” policy of online retailers (零售商) — where people pay for clothing they order online after they try it on at home — could be leading to this rising trend.
But the rise of social media means that everyone, not just superstars, expects to build and maintain a personal brand. Since we’re recording our lives and posting them online for public judgement, getting caught in the same outfits more than once should be avoided. And the cost of all those outfits of the day adds up, which makes returning a popular way.
There are brands that make clothes specially for social media shoppers, like Fashion Nova. “These are clothes made for social media: meant to be worn once, photographed and abandoned,” Allison P. Davis wrote in her report about the brand. Another favourite of the social media age is Rent the Runway, which lets customers rent designer clothing for a fee.
Some, however, are moving in the opposite direction. Groups promoting “work uniforms” have increased greatly in recent years, aiming to free women from “the trouble of clothing decisions”. The concept of the “capsule wardrobe (胶囊衣橱)”, which calls for purchasing a small number of high-quality pieces instead of lots of trendy throwaway clothes, is also making a comeback.
23. What does the survey by Barclaycard suggest
A. Britons follow the fashion stars closely.
B. Some Britons over-order and return clothes.
C. Britons try on clothes before online purchases.
D. Some Britons send outfits back after taking pictures.
24. What’s Fashion Nova’s special service
A. Renting top designers’ clothes.
B. Offering customers single-use clothes.
C. Creating unique shopping experiences.
D. Helping shoppers improve their clothing style.
25. What’s the idea behind the “capsule wardrobe”
A. Better fewer, but better. B. Less addition, but more enjoyment.
C. Less uniform, and more freedom. D. More choices, and less trouble.
26. Why does the author write the text
A. To compare different wearing trends.
B. To introduce Britain’s new wearing trend.
C. To support buying high-quality clothes.
D To criticize the “try before you buy” policy.
【答案】23. D 24. B 25. A 26. B
D
It seems that the era of fancy, well-known restaurants has ended as people are now more interested in finding which hole-in-the-wall restaurant (苍蝇小馆) has the best food. Nowadays, it’s more fulfilling to post hole-in-the-wall restaurants you have found on Xiaohongshu and be asked for addresses in the comment section.
Hole-in-the-wall restaurants are small restaurants that are not highly decorated but have many delicious local dishes. Though they have long served as the “canteen” of their surrounding neighborhoods, these hole-in-the-wall restaurants have gradually retreated from the busy streets as more high-rise structures are built.
Now, hole-in-the-wall restaurants are often found in the corners of small lanes and alleys in different parts of a city and the most popular ones usually have a history of more than 10 years and are run as family businesses.
Many hole-in-the-wall restaurant lovers desire a more natural lifestyle, with some viewing their dining habits as a protest against consumerism. A native of Wuhan surnamed Tian, appreciates that these humble diners cook food with care. In contrast, some internet-famous restaurants only use pre-made food or simply stir-fry their dishes, she complained. This results in the foods having similar tastes.
A university student surnamed Zhou, tried a hole-in-the-wall restaurant with her boyfriend after friends recommended it to her. She ordered three dishes, which only cost 64 yuan. “The food tastes good, and it’s cheap,” she said.
Still, there are risks for both owners and fans of hole-in-the-wall restaurants. Zou Zhiping, a professor at Hubei University of Economics, said that due to limitations in funds and management as well as lack of food safety awareness, there could be hygiene and food security issues at these locations.
To solve these problems, Zou suggested that the government provide training and more support for these restaurants. These restaurants should also improve their quality of service.
27. What is the author’s attitude to the hole-in-the-wall restaurants
A. Approving. B. Skeptical. C. Neutral. D. Indifferent.
28. What do we know about the hole-in-the-wall restaurants
A. They are often run as family businesses in the back lanes and alleys.
B. Pre-made food or simply stir-fried dishes are highly recommended there.
C. Customers can appreciate a natural and overdecorated lifestyle there.
D. Delicious and costly local specialities are served in those humble diners.
29. According to Zou Zhiping, what is NOT one of the causes of the risks
A. Limitations in funds. B. Imperfect management.
C. Off-the-map locations. D. Lack of safety awareness.
30. In which column do we probably find the article
A. Economy. B. Cuisine. C. Security. D. Management.
【答案】27. C 28. A 29. C 30. B

On a summer vacation morning, I went to a bookstore with my mom. As we stepped through the entrance, a large sign immediately captured my attention. It read, “Books: Open Doors to New Worlds. Discover, Dream, Delight.” These words seemed to dance in the sunlight, leading me to explore all the wonders they promised.
When we made our way between the shelves, I spotted a beautiful book with a cover that was a masterpiece of colors and images. Unconsciously, my hand reached out to trace the outlines of the illustrations. I turned to my mom, my eyes begging for this book, but she shook her head with a sad expression. Our family was going through a tough time financially, and there was no room for such an expensive purchase. Disappointed, I dragged my feet and left.
The next day, unable to resist the temptation, I found myself back at the store. I slipped the book into my bag, my hands trembling with a mix of excitement and guilt. Just as I was about to leave, the store owner noticed me. I froze, my face flushing with shame as I was caught red-handed. He stared at me, from whose eyes I could feel the judgement. I wanted to disappear, but there was no escape. With a shaky voice, I admitted stealing the book, and promised to make things right. As I walked out, the sign seemed to scold me. It was a reminder that the world I entered by a wrong path was disheartening.
I walked home slowly, each step filled with fear. When I saw my mom, I burst into tears and told her the truth. She looked disappointed, but there was a glimmer of relief in her eyes that I was honest. She hugged me and said softly, “You made a mistake, but you had the courage to face it. Remember, there are always right ways to get what you want.” I nodded. After a moment of silence, my mom said, “Let’s make things right.”

【答案】
As we walked back into the store, my heart was so heavy. However, encouraged by my mom, I gathered the courage and apologized to the store owner. Much to my surprise, the owner came up with an idea that he would give me the book as a reward for helping him in the store. Following his instructions carefully, I worked hard by dusting book covers and arranging books neatly on the shelves. As I was engaged in these tasks during the vacation, I came to realize the value of earning something through honest work.
When I finished my summer job, the owner handed me the book with a smile. I received the book with a sense of pride and gratitude. The owner patted me on the shoulder and offered words of praise. My mom was also proud of me for working diligently for my small dream. This scene made me even more aware of the significance of my efforts. As I walked out of the store, the sign seemed to smile at me. From that moment on, it was a constant reminder that a delightful new world should be unlocked through honesty and kindness.
