UW Student Classical Music Jacoby Competition
The worlds of competition and classical music meet head-on as the University of Wyoming’s finest student musicians will be chosen during the UW Symphony Orchestra’s Jacoby Competition at 7:30 pm on May 6 in the Buchanan Center for the Performing Arts concert hall.
Tickets are $19 for the general public, $15 for the elderly and $9 for students. To order tickets, call (307) 766-6666 or go online at www./ticket-sales/uwyo/6984.
The concert is named after Dorothy Jacoby, a musical and founding member of the local Symphony Association and a longtime supporter of classical music in Laramie. After her death, her sons, Peter and Michael Jacoby, made a generous contribution in honour of their mother.
“The Jacoby Competition never fails to be one of the UW Symphony Orchestra’s most exciting events,” says UW Department of Music Professor Michael Griffith. “What you will hear is actually the finals of a two-stage competition.”
Several months ago, many UW music students played their selected pieces in the audition (试演) round. A group of well-known musicians served as judges and chose the seven top students to perform in the finals concert. Another set of judges will be at the performance and will decide the best two performances of the evening. The winners will get the $2,500 prize that is awarded at the performance.
21．What is the ticket price for students to attend the concert
A．$5. B．$9. C．$15. D．$19.
22．What were the music students required to do in the first round
A．Produce the original work. B．Practice with these musicians.
C．Perform their picked music. D．Play pieces written by judges.
23．What will the winners receive
A．Recordings. B．Cash awards. C．Concert tickets. D．Singing auditions.
A few months ago, I was working on an article about oceans across the solar system. Having read my fill about oceans of water, I turned to goggle for information about oceans made of other stuff, like liquid hydrocarbons. I hoped to find reliable (可靠的) results, perhaps from NASA．Instead, Google’s AI feature suggested Enceladus, a moon of Saturn, known for its saltwater ocean. This made me mad because it was not the information I was looking for.
This is a small example of how AI can fail. Arvind Narayanan and Sayash Kapoor highlight many more concerning examples in their new book AI Snake Oil. They write about AI tools that say they can predict (预测) things like academic success, disease risk, or even wars. Along the way, the authors also explore many other issue with AI, covering misinformation, privacy, and copyright. They address whether we should be afraid of AI, concluding. “We should be far more concerned about what people will do with AI than with what AI will do on its own.”
The authors point out that the technology is advancing quickly. Some of the details may be out of date — or at least old news — by the time the book makes it into your hands. For example, predictive AI, which aims to foresee future events, often fails because human behavior is too complex to predict. The authors believe that many AI systems are “snake oil” meaning they do not work as promised.
When it comes to why these problems exist and how to change them, Narayanan and Kapoor bring a clear point of view: Society has given too much freedom to the teach industry, “We are not okay with leaving the future of AI up to the people currently in charge.” they write.
This book is a wake-up call for anyone who uses AI or makes decisions about it, encouraging us to think critically (批判地) and use AI responsible.
24．Why does the author mention the example in paragraph 1
A．To show the disadvantage of AI B．To prove the reliability of AI
C．To explore the power of Google. D．To share a scientific discovery.
25．What do Narayanan and Kapoor find more concerning
A．What AI will do by itself. B．How people choose to use AI
C．What is spreading online D．How AI systems are stopped.
26．What do Narayanan and Kapoor suggest about AI development
A．Leaving it growing fast. B．Giving it enough freedom
C．Putting it under control D．Preventing it immediately.
27．What is the text
A．A diary entry. B．A news report.
C．A book review. D．A research paper.
Seattle’s waterfront has a new look, with art celebrating the city’s history and native culture, A key piece is a series of wooden posts inspired by traditional native longhouses, stretching from Columbia to Spring streets and towers over plant beds and a new bike path The artwork is a part of Seattle’s larger waterfront revitalization (翻新) project inspired by the history, ecology and communities of the land on which they stand.
Three of the new artworks were created by native artists, highlighting the importance of native people in Seattle’s history and future, For many years, the waterfront has been crowded with heavy traffic. Now these new changes create a space that invites personal interaction — and allows people to recognize native culture, land and peoples in Seattle’s past and future.
Oscar Tuazon is the lead artist behind the artwork on the waterfront. Though not native himself, Tuazon worked with other native artists They included house posts carved (雕刻) by local artists, such as Randi Purser. One of the two house posts will complete a family in sculpture (雕像). Purser’s post shows Sholeetsa, Chief Seattle’s mother, holding Chief Seattle as a baby. Across the water, on Bainbridge Island, another of Purser’s posts represents Schweabe, Chief Seattle’s father. “It represents a young family who faced a time of change,” Purser said, “I want to convey that feeling within Seattle of an Indian woman facing the future.”
Tuazon used native trees for the artwork, stressing the connection between traditional native and industrial Seattle architecture, He believed wood represents a process of renewal, much like culture, which develops over time.
Other native artworks on the waterfront include a large basket designed by Malynn Foster. “It’s a gathering basket. We create a space for people to gather and celebrate,” Foster said “As people walk through that space, they will stop and see something familiar from the past.”
28．What inspired the artists to create thee wooden posts
A．A group of young bikers. B．Towering trees in the forest.
C．Natural beauty in spring. D．Traditional native buildings.
29．Which of the following best describes the current waterfront in Seattle
A．Dangerous B．Unchanged. C．Welcoming. D．Bad-looking.
30．What does the underlined word “convey” in paragraph 3 mean
A．Express. B．Replace. C．Separate. D．Question.
31．What does Foster expect people to do when they walk through the large basket
A．Clean the space now and then. B．Show respect for their family.
C．Connect with the local history. D．Offer tips for the new project.
In a very important journey to make space travel better for the environment, scientists have successfully launched LignoSat, the world’s first wooden satellite, aboard a SpaceX rocket. The satellite is going on a trip to bring more things to the International Space Station (ISS), where it will be launched into orbit in the coming month.
The pioneering project was developed by Kyoto University scientists and Sumitomo Forestry, which is a big step in finding new ways to be good for the environment when we use technology in space. LignoSat’s purpose is to see whether wood could be a proper material in space. The satellite is set to orbit Earth for six months, staying strong in the tough space environment while scientists watch how well it holds up.
Wood, surprisingly strong in space due to the absence of oxygen and water, could offer a solution to a significant problem facing the satellite industry: metal pieces from retired satellites re-entering Earth’s atmosphere. Traditional metal satellites often generate metal particles upon burning up, but LignoSat, designed to break up harmlessly on re-entry, has the potential to avoid this environmental impact altogether.
Koji Murata, a professor from Kyoto University who studies forests, said that because wood could last a long time without oxygen, it might be a good material to use for spaceships, reducing environmental harm when the satellite returns to Earth. The satellite was put in a specialized container (容器) by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) and flew into space safely, according to a post on the Internet. Sumitomo Forestry’s spokesperson said the satellite’s journey went well and that it would soon arrive at the ISS, where it will then be launched into space.
32．What can be learned about LignoSat
A．It’s made of metal. B．It’s a wooden satellite.
C．It looks like a SpaceX rocket. D．It’s near the International Space Station
33．What is the main purpose of LignoSat
A．To make the journey to space faster. B．To discover water sources in space.
C．To bring space materials back to Earth. D．To test if wood is suitable for use in space.
34．What benefit does wood offer compared to metal for satellites according to paragraph 3
A．It is more environment-friendly. B．It can be found more easily.
C．It provides more strength. D．It is cheaper.
35．What is the best title for the text
A．ISS: Wooden Addition B．LignoSat: Beyond Profit
C．First Wooden Satellite: Eco-Space Travel D．SpaceX: Green Satellite Launch

67．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。
Jason and his two-year-old daughter walked into a busy airport. The girl wore a bright red hat and smiled as she looked around at the tall windows and long lines of people. The hall was filled with voices, rolling suitcases, and the announcements over loudspeakers. They had come early to make sure they had enough time for their flight.
They reached the check-in counter (柜台) well before their flight. Jason smiled at the agent (工作人员) and placed two small bags on the scale. Jason gently lifted his daughter onto the counter beside his suitcase. The agent asked, “May I have your tickets, please ” The agent scanned his boarding pass, then looked at the girl. “I’m sorry,” she said, in a soft but firm voice, “your daughter needs her own ticket. Our rules say any child over twenty-four months needs a full-price seat.”
Jason blinked (眨眼睛) in surprise. He mistakenly thought his daughter was free because of her age. He looked down at his daughter’s small feet and remembered how he had held her when she was a baby. “But she is only two years old,” Jason said softly. “I did not know she needed a ticket.” The agent shook her head. “I know it is confusing. But our system will not let me continue without the extra ticket.”
Jason took a deep breath and checked his wallet. Inside were a few bills, a credit card, and a hope that he could somehow fix this. He turned to the agent, “I don’t have enough money right now. The ticket costs… ” She tapped the screen. “Seven hundred forty-nine dollars.” He swallowed hard and whispered, “I do not…” He felt his face going red as he stepped back from the counter. He bent down and hugged his daughter close. “Sweetie, I need to make a quick call,” he said. Then he walked away, with phone in hand, his steps slow and heavy.
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。
While Jason stood a few feet away, a kind-looking woman came to the counter.

【原文】W: Don’t blame yourself too much. It is too early to start the afternoon class at 1:00 pm.
M: No, the class has been rescheduled to 2:00 pm, and I was still 30 minutes late yesterday.
4．C
【原文】W: Wow! I do like this campus: the green lawns, and the old buildings with tall columns. It’s really beautiful.
M: It sure is. The architecture of these buildings is in the Greek style. It was popular in the 18th century here.
5．B
【原文】W: Hi, waiter. Can you come over here and make out what this is
M: Oh, my god. I think that’s a cockroach.
W: So there’s nothing wrong with my eyes.
6．C 7．A
【原文】M: Do you see the signs for Washington D. C.
W: No. According to the map we should be close to the city, but the highway signs don’t say anything about Washington D. C..
M: What names do the signs show
W: I see road signs for San Jose and New York. Do you think we’re lost
M: Yeah, I think we’re going in the wrong direction. I hope we can reach Washington D.C. before it gets dark.
W: Oh, I think I see a gas station up there on the right.

【原文】W: Can I help you, sir
M: I’d like a dark business suit, the kind that never goes out of style. Something in wool, I guess.
W: Right this way. We have some excellent pure wool suits. Wool has the best of everything —more comfort, more quality, more value. But as to style, I think you should realize that even the most conservative styles still change.
M: I’m sure you’re right. It’s just that I’m afraid of buying a new suit every year.
W: Well, the changes are usually not so great. What do you think of this one
M: That’s a bit too formal for me. I’d like a dark gray, or navy blue, or black. But I prefer a solid color.
W: Here, try this gray one. That looks almost the tailor made for you.
M: It’s just what I wanted.
14．C 15．C 16．C
【原文】W: May I take your order, sir
M: Well, it’s very hard to decide. Is there any particular dish you would recommend

W: It’s a small steak cooked on a grill.
M: Oh!
W: Maybe you’d like to try today’s special — roast beef, which includes appetizer, soup, salad, choice of dessert, and tea or coffee.
M: I think I’ll try that.
W: What appetizer would you like
M: I’ll have the fruit cocktail.
W: And the soup
M: I’ll have the cream of mushroom soup, and I’d like French dressing on my salad.
W: Very well, sir.

W: Yes, of course. We have pumpkin layer pie, peach pie, rice pudding, ice cream, and chocolate cake.
M: I’ll have rice pudding and black coffee.
W: OK, sir.
17．B 18．A 19．A 20．B
【原文】
W: Trees are pretty important to the environment. So it makes sense that if you chop down too many of these and don’t replace them, and you’re going to run into all sorts of problems. The Philippines knows all about that. It's lost more than two thirds of its forest area in less than a hundred years. In 2003, a slide of a large mass of dirt and rock down a mountain or cliff, or we call a landslide, killed around two hundred people. Recently another landslide buried an entire village in mud. It’s believed more than one thousand people died. The cause of this landslide is still being debated. Most say it was the heavy rainfall. I mean we’re talking about two thousand millimeters of rain in ten days that’s quite a downpour. Some say a minor earthquake played a part, while others blamed the removal of trees. Of course, it could be a combination of all those things. While the Philippines banned chopping down trees for several years, it started again in 2005. Partly because the Philippines’ population is growing at a rapid rate, so the land is needed for housing and farming. So how do you support the increasing population without ruining the environment Grow more plantations — forests, which are for commercial use. And don’t destroy our native forests.

66．Dear Chris,
Last Friday, my school held a special cultural event called “I Love Paper-cutting” to celebrate the upcoming Dragon Boat Festival.
I created a traditional “Double Happiness” design, which is a symbol of luck and joy in Chinese culture. It took me three attempts to perfect the patterns! Our art teacher said this symbol was often used at Chinese weddings.
What fascinated me most was discovering how paper-cutting combines maths with artistic freedom. As I carefully folded and cut the red paper, I felt connected to centuries of Chinese craftsmanship.
Would you like to try this when you visit China I can teach you the basic techniques!
Yours,
Li Hua
67．One possible version:
While Jason stood a few feet away, a kind-looking woman came to the counter. “I will pay for the ticket,” she said. The agent paused in surprise, then nodded. The woman folded the pass and handed it to the girl. Moments later, Jason returned to the counter. He looked at his daughter’s ticket in her hand. “How did this happen ” The agent pointed to the woman, “This kind lady paid for it.” The father turned to the woman. “Thank you,” he said. “My name is Jason. I want to repay you. May I have your name, please ”
The woman smiled and shook her head, saying “You don’t need to repay me.” “I just wanted to help,” she added. “It was nothing big, really. Enjoy your trip with your daughter.” Before Jason could try again to learn her name or offer his thanks in some other way, she turned around and walked down the line of people waiting to check in. Jason watched her and thought about the stranger’s act of kindness. He felt both grateful and humbled. He looked at his daughter’s red hat and decided to teach her to help others, just as the stranger had helped them.

UW Student Classical Music Jacoby Competition
The worlds of competition and classical music meet head-on as the University of Wyoming’s finest student musicians will be chosen during the UW Symphony Orchestra’s Jacoby Competition at 7:30 pm on May 6 in the Buchanan Center for the Performing Arts concert hall.
Tickets are $19 for the general public, $15 for the elderly and $9 for students. To order tickets, call (307) 766-6666 or go online at www./ticket-sales/uwyo/6984.
The concert is named after Dorothy Jacoby, a musical and founding member of the local Symphony Association and a longtime supporter of classical music in Laramie. After her death, her sons, Peter and Michael Jacoby, made a generous contribution in honour of their mother.
“The Jacoby Competition never fails to be one of the UW Symphony Orchestra’s most exciting events,” says UW Department of Music Professor Michael Griffith. “What you will hear is actually the finals of a two-stage competition.”
Several months ago, many UW music students played their selected pieces in the audition (试演) round. A group of well-known musicians served as judges and chose the seven top students to perform in the finals concert. Another set of judges will be at the performance and will decide the best two performances of the evening. The winners will get the $2,500 prize that is awarded at the performance.
21．What is the ticket price for students to attend the concert
A．$5. B．$9. C．$15. D．$19.
22．What were the music students required to do in the first round
A．Produce the original work. B．Practice with these musicians.
C．Perform their picked music. D．Play pieces written by judges.
23．What will the winners receive
A．Recordings. B．Cash awards. C．Concert tickets. D．Singing auditions.
A few months ago, I was working on an article about oceans across the solar system. Having read my fill about oceans of water, I turned to goggle for information about oceans made of other stuff, like liquid hydrocarbons. I hoped to find reliable (可靠的) results, perhaps from NASA．Instead, Google’s AI feature suggested Enceladus, a moon of Saturn, known for its saltwater ocean. This made me mad because it was not the information I was looking for.
This is a small example of how AI can fail. Arvind Narayanan and Sayash Kapoor highlight many more concerning examples in their new book AI Snake Oil. They write about AI tools that say they can predict (预测) things like academic success, disease risk, or even wars. Along the way, the authors also explore many other issue with AI, covering misinformation, privacy, and copyright. They address whether we should be afraid of AI, concluding. “We should be far more concerned about what people will do with AI than with what AI will do on its own.”
The authors point out that the technology is advancing quickly. Some of the details may be out of date — or at least old news — by the time the book makes it into your hands. For example, predictive AI, which aims to foresee future events, often fails because human behavior is too complex to predict. The authors believe that many AI systems are “snake oil” meaning they do not work as promised.
When it comes to why these problems exist and how to change them, Narayanan and Kapoor bring a clear point of view: Society has given too much freedom to the teach industry, “We are not okay with leaving the future of AI up to the people currently in charge.” they write.
This book is a wake-up call for anyone who uses AI or makes decisions about it, encouraging us to think critically (批判地) and use AI responsible.
24．Why does the author mention the example in paragraph 1
A．To show the disadvantage of AI B．To prove the reliability of AI
C．To explore the power of Google. D．To share a scientific discovery.
25．What do Narayanan and Kapoor find more concerning
A．What AI will do by itself. B．How people choose to use AI
C．What is spreading online D．How AI systems are stopped.
26．What do Narayanan and Kapoor suggest about AI development
A．Leaving it growing fast. B．Giving it enough freedom
C．Putting it under control D．Preventing it immediately.
27．What is the text
A．A diary entry. B．A news report.
C．A book review. D．A research paper.
Seattle’s waterfront has a new look, with art celebrating the city’s history and native culture, A key piece is a series of wooden posts inspired by traditional native longhouses, stretching from Columbia to Spring streets and towers over plant beds and a new bike path The artwork is a part of Seattle’s larger waterfront revitalization (翻新) project inspired by the history, ecology and communities of the land on which they stand.
Three of the new artworks were created by native artists, highlighting the importance of native people in Seattle’s history and future, For many years, the waterfront has been crowded with heavy traffic. Now these new changes create a space that invites personal interaction — and allows people to recognize native culture, land and peoples in Seattle’s past and future.
Oscar Tuazon is the lead artist behind the artwork on the waterfront. Though not native himself, Tuazon worked with other native artists They included house posts carved (雕刻) by local artists, such as Randi Purser. One of the two house posts will complete a family in sculpture (雕像). Purser’s post shows Sholeetsa, Chief Seattle’s mother, holding Chief Seattle as a baby. Across the water, on Bainbridge Island, another of Purser’s posts represents Schweabe, Chief Seattle’s father. “It represents a young family who faced a time of change,” Purser said, “I want to convey that feeling within Seattle of an Indian woman facing the future.”
Tuazon used native trees for the artwork, stressing the connection between traditional native and industrial Seattle architecture, He believed wood represents a process of renewal, much like culture, which develops over time.
Other native artworks on the waterfront include a large basket designed by Malynn Foster. “It’s a gathering basket. We create a space for people to gather and celebrate,” Foster said “As people walk through that space, they will stop and see something familiar from the past.”
28．What inspired the artists to create thee wooden posts
A．A group of young bikers. B．Towering trees in the forest.
C．Natural beauty in spring. D．Traditional native buildings.
29．Which of the following best describes the current waterfront in Seattle
A．Dangerous B．Unchanged. C．Welcoming. D．Bad-looking.
30．What does the underlined word “convey” in paragraph 3 mean
A．Express. B．Replace. C．Separate. D．Question.
31．What does Foster expect people to do when they walk through the large basket
A．Clean the space now and then. B．Show respect for their family.
C．Connect with the local history. D．Offer tips for the new project.
In a very important journey to make space travel better for the environment, scientists have successfully launched LignoSat, the world’s first wooden satellite, aboard a SpaceX rocket. The satellite is going on a trip to bring more things to the International Space Station (ISS), where it will be launched into orbit in the coming month.
The pioneering project was developed by Kyoto University scientists and Sumitomo Forestry, which is a big step in finding new ways to be good for the environment when we use technology in space. LignoSat’s purpose is to see whether wood could be a proper material in space. The satellite is set to orbit Earth for six months, staying strong in the tough space environment while scientists watch how well it holds up.
Wood, surprisingly strong in space due to the absence of oxygen and water, could offer a solution to a significant problem facing the satellite industry: metal pieces from retired satellites re-entering Earth’s atmosphere. Traditional metal satellites often generate metal particles upon burning up, but LignoSat, designed to break up harmlessly on re-entry, has the potential to avoid this environmental impact altogether.
Koji Murata, a professor from Kyoto University who studies forests, said that because wood could last a long time without oxygen, it might be a good material to use for spaceships, reducing environmental harm when the satellite returns to Earth. The satellite was put in a specialized container (容器) by the Japan Aerospace Exploration Agency (JAXA) and flew into space safely, according to a post on the Internet. Sumitomo Forestry’s spokesperson said the satellite’s journey went well and that it would soon arrive at the ISS, where it will then be launched into space.
32．What can be learned about LignoSat
A．It’s made of metal. B．It’s a wooden satellite.
C．It looks like a SpaceX rocket. D．It’s near the International Space Station
33．What is the main purpose of LignoSat
A．To make the journey to space faster. B．To discover water sources in space.
C．To bring space materials back to Earth. D．To test if wood is suitable for use in space.
34．What benefit does wood offer compared to metal for satellites according to paragraph 3
A．It is more environment-friendly. B．It can be found more easily.
C．It provides more strength. D．It is cheaper.
35．What is the best title for the text
A．ISS: Wooden Addition B．LignoSat: Beyond Profit
C．First Wooden Satellite: Eco-Space Travel D．SpaceX: Green Satellite Launch

Jason and his two-year-old daughter walked into a busy airport. The girl wore a bright red hat and smiled as she looked around at the tall windows and long lines of people. The hall was filled with voices, rolling suitcases, and the announcements over loudspeakers. They had come early to make sure they had enough time for their flight.
They reached the check-in counter (柜台) well before their flight. Jason smiled at the agent (工作人员) and placed two small bags on the scale. Jason gently lifted his daughter onto the counter beside his suitcase. The agent asked, “May I have your tickets, please ” The agent scanned his boarding pass, then looked at the girl. “I’m sorry,” she said, in a soft but firm voice, “your daughter needs her own ticket. Our rules say any child over twenty-four months needs a full-price seat.”
Jason blinked (眨眼睛) in surprise. He mistakenly thought his daughter was free because of her age. He looked down at his daughter’s small feet and remembered how he had held her when she was a baby. “But she is only two years old,” Jason said softly. “I did not know she needed a ticket.” The agent shook her head. “I know it is confusing. But our system will not let me continue without the extra ticket.”
Jason took a deep breath and checked his wallet. Inside were a few bills, a credit card, and a hope that he could somehow fix this. He turned to the agent, “I don’t have enough money right now. The ticket costs… ” She tapped the screen. “Seven hundred forty-nine dollars.” He swallowed hard and whispered, “I do not…” He felt his face going red as he stepped back from the counter. He bent down and hugged his daughter close. “Sweetie, I need to make a quick call,” he said. Then he walked away, with phone in hand, his steps slow and heavy.

2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
While Jason stood a few feet away, a kind-looking woman came to the counter.

M: I’m sure you’re right. It’s just that I’m afraid of buying a new suit every year.
W: Well, the changes are usually not so great. What do you think of this one
M: That’s a bit too formal for me. I’d like a dark gray, or navy blue, or black. But I prefer a solid color.

【原文】
W: Trees are pretty important to the environment. So it makes sense that if you chop down too many of these and don’t replace them, and you’re going to run into all sorts of problems. The Philippines knows all about that. It's lost more than two thirds of its forest area in less than a hundred years. In 2003, a slide of a large mass of dirt and rock down a mountain or cliff, or we call a landslide, killed around two hundred people. Recently another landslide buried an entire village in mud. It’s believed more than one thousand people died. The cause of this landslide is still being debated. Most say it was the heavy rainfall. I mean we’re talking about two thousand millimeters of rain in ten days that’s quite a downpour. Some say a minor earthquake played a part, while others blamed the removal of trees. Of course, it could be a combination of all those things. While the Philippines banned chopping down trees for several years, it started again in 2005. Partly because the Philippines’ population is growing at a rapid rate, so the land is needed for housing and farming. So how do you support the increasing population without ruining the environment Grow more plantations — forests, which are for commercial use. And don’t destroy our native forests.

66．Dear Chris,
Last Friday, my school held a special cultural event called “I Love Paper-cutting” to celebrate the upcoming Dragon Boat Festival.
I created a traditional “Double Happiness” design, which is a symbol of luck and joy in Chinese culture. It took me three attempts to perfect the patterns! Our art teacher said this symbol was often used at Chinese weddings.
What fascinated me most was discovering how paper-cutting combines maths with artistic freedom. As I carefully folded and cut the red paper, I felt connected to centuries of Chinese craftsmanship.
Would you like to try this when you visit China I can teach you the basic techniques!
Yours,
Li Hua
67．One possible version:
While Jason stood a few feet away, a kind-looking woman came to the counter. “I will pay for the ticket,” she said. The agent paused in surprise, then nodded. The woman folded the pass and handed it to the girl. Moments later, Jason returned to the counter. He looked at his daughter’s ticket in her hand. “How did this happen ” The agent pointed to the woman, “This kind lady paid for it.” The father turned to the woman. “Thank you,” he said. “My name is Jason. I want to repay you. May I have your name, please ”
The woman smiled and shook her head, saying “You don’t need to repay me.” “I just wanted to help,” she added. “It was nothing big, really. Enjoy your trip with your daughter.” Before Jason could try again to learn her name or offer his thanks in some other way, she turned around and walked down the line of people waiting to check in. Jason watched her and thought about the stranger’s act of kindness. He felt both grateful and humbled. He looked at his daughter’s red hat and decided to teach her to help others, just as the stranger had helped them.
