It was 1963 in the Toronto suburb.I was eight years old and hockey-crazy.My next-to-zero skills had not stopped my passion for the game.The players of the great hockey club Toronto Maple Leafs were of course my heroes, and their posters and photos covered the walls of my room.
There is always some price to pay for maintaining a love.I raised funds in an old-fashioned way, selling something the public could actually sink their teeth into.I joined the local annual event—Margaret's Doughnuts (甜甜圈) to sell doughnuts, which offered choices of honey-glazed or chocolate-glazed.
Door-to-door I went, notebook in hand to record.I sold dozens of dozens; hardly a soul turned me down.My notebook was almost full, and my stomach was almost empty when I went up the last house on the south side.
I rang the doorbell and went over my speech while staring at the screen door.Suddenly, the door opened.My unforgettable memory was looking up from a large pair of fuzzy slippers, way up, to the face staring down.I stood there speechless for what seemed 10 years, opening and closing my mouth like a fish out of water.Collecting my calmness, but still unable to go into doughnut-promoting overdrive, I told him something he seemed have already known and he replied with a nod and a smile.
I have an unclear memory of murmuring through my speech “Please-buy-some-doughnuts”, and then a vivid memory of him taking the notebook from my hand.I followed with new information—that we shared our given name.With pride from our first-name-basis farewells, I flew home holding the notebook tightly to my chest.
The next morning before the school bell, I cautiously showed off the precious paper.It is surely mine alone to claim: I sold a dozen doughnuts to Tim Horton, one of my most respected players who lived a mere three blocks away!

Flights are getting bumpier (更颠簸的) as the climate changes, scientists have revealed.And it is only set to continue or worsen in the coming years.
The study, conducted by scientists at the University of Reading in the U.K., shows an increase in clear-air turbulence unexpected air currents in cloudless air.These invisible currents are potentially dangerous to aircraft.The researchers said the increases are in line with the effects of climate change.
Research in the past decade has shown that climate change will increase clear-air turbulence in the future.“We now have evidence suggesting that the increase has already begun,” said professor Paul Williams, an atmospheric scientist at the University of Reading.“We should be investing in improved turbulence forecasting and detection systems, to prevent the rougher air from translating into bumpier flights in the coming decades,” he added.
The study focused on one of the world's busiest flight routes over the North Atlantic Ocean.The results show that it has seen a 55% increase in annual duration of severe turbulence.In 1979, the duration recorded was 17.7 hours.In 2020, it was 27.4 hours.Turbulence increased by 37%, from 70 hours to 96.1 hours.The increase is due to warmer air from CO2 emissions.This increases a sudden change in wind speed or direction in jet streams.
Clear-air turbulence is most severe over mountainous areas and also close to thunderstorms.While it hasn't been known to cause aircraft crashes, it has caused damage to aircraft and injuries to passengers.“Airlines will need to start thinking about how they will manage the increased turbulence.It costs the industry $150 to $500 million annually in the United States alone,” Ph.D researcher Mark Prosser said.
“Every additional minute spent travelling through turbulence increases wear-and-tear on the aircraft, and the risk of injuries to passengers and flight attendants,” he added.
8.What does the text mainly talk about
A.The increase in turbulence damages aircraft.
B.The turbulence duration has increased greatly.
C.Climate change contributes to bumpier flights.
D.Flights routes are in line with the climate change.
9.What can we learn from what professor Paul Williams said
A.He was relieved that turbulence was not dangerous.
B.He was confident of the future of the prevention systems.
C.He was aware of what to do to reduce bumpier flights.
D.He was worried flights would become bumpier and bumpier.
10.Why are the figures listed in the fourth paragraph
A.To reveal the great change in turbulence duration over time.
B.To introduce how terrible the flights were in turbulence duration.
C.To tell readers about the effect of turbulence on the flight route.
D.To stress the relationship between increased turbulence and flights.
11.What do we know about clear-air turbulence
A.It is the most powerful to aircraft around the world.
B.It leads to aircraft crashes and climate change.
C.It can both damage airlines and kill passengers.
D.It puts the airlines under huge financial pressure.
D
Anyone can be late a handful of times, but to be the person who is always late—that's an art, a frustrating art.Or, a side effect of your personality traits, scientists have found.
So what is it that causes some people to constantly miss trains, make it to the wedding just after the bride's shown up and regularly annoy their friends And why is it so hard for us to fix it “There are all sorts of punishments for being late, and the paradox is that we are late even when those punishments and consequences exist,” said Justin Kruger, a social psychologist at New York University.
One of the commonest reasons why people are frequently late is that they fail to accurately judge how long a task will take something known as the planning fault. Research has shown that people on average underestimate the time to complete a task by a significant 40 percent.
Another trait is that forever-late-comers are more likely to be multitaskers.In a 2003 study run by Jeff Conte from San Diego State University found that out of 181 subway operators in New York City, those who preferred multitasking were more often late for their job.This is because multitasking makes it harder to have the awareness of what you're doing.Conte also discovered there is a personality type that's more likely to be late.While highly strung, achievement-oriented Type A individuals are more possible to be punctual.Type B individuals, however, who are more laid-back(漫不经心), have a higher chance to be late.
Admittedly, knowing all of this doesn't necessarily help fix the problem.But scientists are starting to work on strategies that can slowly improve our punctuality.For people who constantly underestimate tasks, breaking down an activity into detailed steps can help people estimate how long something will take more accurately.As for your personality type, unfortunately, there isn't much you can do to change that.But accepting that you need to struggle for it may just help.Acceptance, after all, is the first step to change.
12.What does the underlined word “paradox” mean in paragraph 2
A.Strategy. B.Argument.
C.Solution. D.Puzzle.
13.What is a possible feature of forever-late-comers
A.They plan to spend more time on a task.
B.They tackle more than one task at a time.
C.They suffer from concentration difficulties.
D.They have high expectations for achievements.
14.Which advice can be given to people who are always late
A.Learn to accept who you are.
B.Change your personality type.
C.Divide a task into smaller ones.
D.Keep to the timetable accurately.
15.What is the main idea of the text
A.Time management contributes to success.
B.Late comers should be severely punished.
C.One's always being late is linked to personality.
D.Changing personality helps improve punctuality.

Green Thumb
All I did was show my little sister how to grow plants.Dig a hole.Put in a seed.Cover it with dirt.Water it.Wait.“See, Laynie,” I explained, “a whole plant will grow from this tiny seed.All we have to do is water it.”
Laynie had her own watering can so she could “help” me in the garden.One day, after everything was watered, she ran to the fence and started sprinkling water on another spot.I walked over and saw a fresh patch of dirt near the fence.
“Did you plant something there?” I asked.
“Yes,” she said.“I'm growing a pencil.My purple pencil got too small, so I planted it.”
“What But, Laynie...”
I should have explained things right then, but I just muttered, “Uh...I never grew one before.”
Later I got what seemed like a great idea.I dug up Laynie's pencil and “planted” a brand-new purple pencil.Laynie was really excited when she saw it.“My pencil grew!” she shouted.
A few days later, Laynie was watering on the same spot.Two days later, new crayons sticking their pointy little heads out, thanks to me.Laynie jumped up and down and yelled, “They look like flowers!” She “picked” them and ran into the house.
Next, Laynie grew an adult bear doll from a tiny one, a soup spoon from a teaspoon, and a hand mirror from a piece of glass.When she claimed that she had grown these things, I just kept my mouth shut! Actually, it was fun trying to think of what should grow from Laynie's seeds.And it was cool to see her get excited.
One day I saw her patting down some dirt near the fence again, so I knew she'd just planted something.My heart dropped to my feet when she asked, “How long does it take to grow a goldfish, Brad?” I couldn't speak.
“Not long, I bet!” said Laynie.She knelt down to whisper “Grow, Molly.Grow!” before she skipped back to the house.
注意:1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答。
I sat down with my back to the fence and thought for a long time.
Later I found Laynie sitting by the spot where Molly was buried.

I sat down with my back to the fence and thought for a long time.Sighing, I decided there was only one right thing to do.I got up, took some things from the shed, and went inside.When I displayed the short pencil, the crayons, the teaspoon...on the table, Laynie was dumbfounded.Then I explained how I'd dug up and replaced all of her things.“No!” she screamed, red-faced.With a big shove, she knocked everything off the table.“Laynie,” I swallowed hard and added, “Molly isn't going to grow either.” At this, she burst into tears and ran off.The heart pierced with guilt, I felt like a worm.
Later I found Laynie sitting by the spot where Molly was buried.I sat down beside her, gently held her in my embrace and apologized.Laynie turned her face away.I went on, “See, you can grow things from seeds—not from pencils or...dead things.OK?” “Just seeds?” she asked, face still tear-stained.I nodded.She looked at me for a minute as if thinking about something.Later that day, after we had a funeral for Molly, I saw Laynie patting down some dirt on Molly's grave.My heart tightened.“I'm growing some forget-me-nots, so Molly won't forget me,” she said.This time, I thought “the green thumb” would have a real harvest.
