Celeste Ng, a new writer, has gained recognition for her first novel, Everything I Never Told You. Ng's parents emigrated from Hong Kong in the 1960s. Ng grew up in a small town in Pennsylvania. Although her novel is not about race, the characters are Asian. The story is about Lydia, a teenage girl, who is the favorite of three children born to a white mother and a Chinese American father. The story is about Lydia's disappearance, and the emotions the family goes through as the mystery unfolds. The whole family deals with grief, regret, and exposed secrets as they search for their lost daughter. Though the characters in this story are Asian, Ng says she didn't really want to include Asian characters. She was afraid people would think the story was about real people in her life. Because she grew up in Pennsylvania and doesn't speak Chinese, she was actually surprised that she included Asian characters in the book. The book has taken off, especially on Amazon, where it won the Editors' Pick for No.1 Best Book of the Year in 2014. With so many readers, it's safe to say this is a book you should read. But if you're looking for a simple mystery, this book might not be for you. Most readers warn that you should not read this book unless you're prepared to cry.
18．What is Ng's first novel mainly about
A．Small town America.

Alice Moore is a teenager entrepreneur (创业者), who in May 2015 set up her business AilieCandy. By the time she was 13, her company was worth millions of dollars with the invention of a super sweet treat that could save kids' teeth, instead of destroying them.
It all began when Moore visited a bank with her dad. On the outing, she was offered a candy bar. However, her dad reminded her that sugary treats were bad for her teeth. But Moore was sick of missing out on candies. So she desired to get round the warning, “Why can't I make a healthy candy that's good for my teeth so that my parents can't say no to it？” With that in mind, Moore asked her dad if she could start her own candy company. He recommended that she do some research and talk to dentists about what a healthier candy would contain.
With her dad's permission, she spent the next two years researching online and conducting trials to get a recipe that was both tasty and tooth friendly. She also approached dentists to learn more about teeth cleaning. Consequently, she succeeded in making a kind of candy only using natural sweeteners, which can reduce oral bacteria.
Moore then used her savings to get her business off the ground. Afterwards, she and her father secured their first business meeting with a supermarket owner, who finally agreed to sell Moore's product—CanCandy.
As CanCandy's success grows, so does Moore's credibility as a young entrepreneur. Moore is enthusiastic about the candy she created, and she's also positive about what the future might bring. She hopes that every kid can have a clean mouth and a broad smile.
Meanwhile, with her parents' help, Moore is generally able to live a normal teenage life. Although she founded her company early on in life, she wasn't driven primarily by profit. Moore wants to use her unique talent to help others find their smiles. She donates 10% of AilieCandy's profits to Big Smiles. With her talent and determination, it appears that the sky could be the limit for Alice Moore.

Many kids help out around the house with chores such as emptying the dishwasher, putting laundry away, and taking out the trash. In exchange, some kids get allowances or other rewards such as extra computer time.
But some people do not think that kids should get rewards for doing chores. Susie Walton, a parenting educator and family coach, believes that by rewarding kids, parents are sending a message that work isn't worth doing unless you get something in return. “Running any kind of household is a team effort，” Susie said. “A home is a living space for everyone in the family. It's important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities in the house, and that families decide together how they want their home to look, and how they are going to keep it looking like everyone wants it to look.”
Other people believe that getting a cash allowance or other rewards motivates kids to do chores, and it also teaches them real world lessons about how we need to work to earn money. There are also new applications that give kids points and digital gifts that can be redeemed (兑取) either online or in the real world. With the ChoreMonster app, kids earn digital points by completing chores that they can turn in for real life rewards such as extra Xbox time or a trip to the mall. “Our goal is to encourage kids to earn rewards，” says Chris Bergman, founder of ChoreMonster. “Kids need positive reinforcement to help motivate them.”
What do you think Should kids be rewarded for doing chores Or should kids help out around their homes without getting anything in return

When I was nine years old, I pulled out my grandmother's dress over my young frame, admiring myself in the mirror. I had no idea what I wanted to be when I grew up. Later in senior high school, I began to dream of being an adult to explore a big world and make adventures. However, I knew adulthood for me was still distant because I supported myself mainly with the money from my family.
Fresh out of college, I was working as a middle school teacher. I was in charge of young people and heavy with that responsibility. I arrived at school early and stayed late, preparing lessons and chatting with students. I was an official adult. I paid my rent and taxes. But I still felt as if I were playing a role. I was the adult authority figure who secretly didn't feel grown up in a room full of children. But I wasn't worried; I was convinced that it would happen soon.
To me, an adult is someone who is mature and trustworthy—a contributing member of the society. We strive to become adults while there is also someone who spends life constantly partying and avoiding responsibility. A grown up, however, is a state of mind. Our body gets older but something inside us doesn't feel as if it is progressing as quickly.
In the following ten years, I followed the routines of adulthood: getting married, giving birth and working. My 6 year old daughter and I often held hands, running breathlessly and laughing wildly. I tried to avoid eye contact with the nearby people who glared at us. I suspected they would prefer adults who would never slide down a giant hill of sand.
I turned 57 recently and it occurred to me that maybe I had it all wrong; I should stop waiting to feel grown up. What if we embraced (拥抱) the child like part of ourselves to enjoy it, guilt free If we're responsible adults and do all the adult things in a way that works, why should it matter if we don't feel grown up deep inside Non grown ups don't necessarily play games, but it isn't fun embracing the playful side of life Why can't we feel 57 and 15 years old at the same time
篇章导读：本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者就自己的成长过程来理解什么是成人以及应该怎样才能做好成人。
32．How did the author feel about adulthood when she was a teenager
A．She was unwilling to make adventures if she became an adult.
B．She showed no interest in thinking about it.
C．She was expectant and hopeful about it.
D．She had unknown fears for it.
答案：C
解析：细节理解题。根据第一段中的“Later in senior high school ... a big world and make adventures.(后来到了高中，我开始梦想成为一个成年人，去探索一个大世界，进行冒险。)”可知，在十几岁的时候，作者对成年充满期待和希望。故选C。
33．What did the author believe would happen to her before long according Paragraph 2
A．Being respected by her children.
B．Becoming a capable teacher.
C．Living on her own.
D．Being a real adult.
答案：D
解析：推理判断题。根据第二段中的“I was the adult ... happen soon.(我是一个成年的权威人士，但在一屋子的孩子面前，我却觉得自己不是一个成年人。但我并不担心，我确信这很快就会发生。)”可推知，作者相信自己不久后就会成为一位真正的成人。故选D。
34．What does the author mainly talk about in the third paragraph
A．What an adult means in her opinion.
B．What an adult's state of mind can be.
C．Why some people spend life avoiding responsibility.
D．Why it doesn't progress so quickly to become a grown up.
答案：A
解析：段落大意题。根据第三段“To me ... as if it is progressing as quickly.(对我来说，成年人是成熟、值得信赖的人，是社会中有贡献的一员。我们努力成为成年人，但也有人一生都在寻欢作乐，逃避责任。然而，成年人是一种精神状态。我们的身体在变老，但我们内心的某些东西却没有那么快地变老。)”可知，本段主要讲述作者对成人的理解。故选A。
35．What advice does the author give to us through her story
A．Be true to your inner self.
B．It's never too late to learn.
C．Life is a bittersweet journey.
D．Nice souls are a masterpiece of time.
答案：A
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“What if we ... if we don't feel grown up deep inside？(如果我们拥抱自己像孩子般的部分，享受它，没有内疚感，会怎么样？如果我们是负责任的成年人，并且以一种有效的方式做所有成年人的事情，那么如果我们内心深处没有成年人的感觉，这又有什么关系呢？)”可推知，作者建议我们应忠于内心的自我。故选A。

As a parent, you want your kids to do their best in school. You already know plenty of sleep, healthy food and some school supplies are necessary. However, what else do children need to be successful without a professional homework helper __36__
Keep it ordered.
__37__ Hence, have your kids keep ahead of their homework with an organized system.

See what works best for them and go from there.
Break projects down.
Many children get stressed out when they have big assignments due. __38__ Often people get frightened by the difficulty of tasks without understanding that the large task is actually just made up of smaller ones. Another solution is to use a project proposal to help keep them on track with homework and projects.
Avoid delaying tasks.
One mistake students usually make is postponing unpleasant work and deliberately looking for distraction. Teach your children that the workload isn't going to get smaller if they wait longer. __39__
__40__
There are a growing number of online references and homework resources.

56．______ 57.______ 58.______ 59.______
60．______ 61.______ 62.______ 63.______
64．______ 65.______
篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了英国“丝路花园”的整体设计以及其中新建成的玻璃温室。
56．答案：engineering
解析：考查名词。设空处修饰名词techniques，在句中作定语，表示“工程技术”。engineering意为“工程”，此处为名词。故填engineering。
57．答案：functional
解析：考查词性转换。设空处与protective并列，修饰设空后的名词structure，应用形容词。故填functional。
58．答案：to give
解析：考查非谓语动词。设空处所在句的谓语动词是open，应用非谓语动词。此处应用动词不定式表示目的。故填to give。
59．答案：closed
解析：考查词性转换。根据设空前的系动词stays可知，设空处应用形容词作表语，表示“关闭的”。故填closed。
60．答案：walks
解析：考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。设空处在句中作谓语。walk sb through意为“带某人走过”。本句描述的是客观情况，应用一般现在时；walk与主语the Silk Route Garden之间为主动关系；主语是第三人称单数。故填walks。
61．答案：the
解析：考查冠词。固定搭配for the first time意为“第一次”。故填the。
62．答案：favo(u)rites
解析：考查名词。设空处作动词included的宾语，上文modern Western为定语，所以此处应用名词；根据下文“such as rosemary, lavender and fennel”可知，此处表示复数概念。favo(u)rite为可数名词时，表示“特别喜爱的事物”。故填favo(u)rites。
63．答案：as
解析：考查介词。结合句意“该玻璃温室作为当代设计的伟大成就而存在”可知，此处表示“作为”，应用介词as。故填as。
64．答案：that/which
解析：考查定语从句的引导词。设空处引导定语从句，先行词为the Silk Route，指物，关系词在从句中作主语。故填that/which。
65．答案：richness
解析：考查词性转换。设空处在定冠词the之后，且设空后的of gardening对设空处进行限定，此处应用名词形式。故填richness。

第二节(满分25分)
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。
When starting my sixth grade year, I was nervous about many things. But nothing compared to the problem that I got to the age where my voice started changing. At first, the voice getting deep excited me. But then I learned before getting deeper, it can crack (变嘶哑)．
The first time it happened I was so embarrassed. Surprisingly, my friends didn't make fun of me. In fact, they didn't even mention it. But in my self conscious sixth grade mind I was certain they made fun of me behind my back. They weren't having the same problem.
After my first voice crack experience, I was determined to make sure it wouldn't happen again. At least not in public. So, except for strategic times I said, “cool” and “yeah”， I didn't talk. My logic was, “If I don't use my voice, it cannot crack.” However, I couldn't go without talking forever. I needed a new solution.
I began clearing my throat before speaking, which actually seemed to help. Limiting how much I spoke and clearing my voice made me much less stressful. This was great but there was a larger problem. I was much more scared about having a voice crack during class. My class had many new kids I'd never spoken with. I didn't want their first impressions of me to be based on a voice crack.
Unfortunately, one day my concern came true. It was about two months after the beginning of the term. On the day it happened everything was the same as always until I got into the classroom. I noticed that we had a substitute teacher (代课老师) and immediately started thinking about how he would take attendance. My permanent teacher never had to, since he already knew each student, I panicked. So many thoughts rushed through my mind that I couldn't think straight. I calmed myself down by telling myself that I only had to say one word “Here”. “Easy enough, right？” I thought so until my name was called. I did my routine—cleared my throat, took a breath, and said, “Here.” The only problem was that while saying this, I had the worst voice crack in the history of voice cracks.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150个左右；
2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
The whole class turned to look at me. “You know, the voice problem you met in class is normal，” a classmate came to me and said.
写前导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了“我”因为变声期的原因，嗓音变得嘶哑难听而感到自卑。在代课老师的课上，老师点名，“我”不得已必须答“到”，而这声“到”是“我”有史以来最严重的声音嘶哑。面对全班同学的目光，“我”该怎么办？同学们又是如何开导“我”的？
[精彩范文]
The whole class turned to look at me. My face burned with embarrassment as I felt each pair of eyes fixed on me. The substitute teacher's puzzled expression only added to the awkward moment. I wished the ground would open up and swallow me whole, but all I could do was shift uncomfortably in my seat. The whispers that followed were like knives to my self esteem. When the bell finally rang for the break, I rushed out of the classroom, feeling utterly humiliated. It seemed like the whole school now knew about my voice crack.
“You know, the voice problem you met in class is normal，” a classmate came to me and said. His reassuring words caught me off guard. As he shared his own similar experiences, I realized I wasn't alone in this struggle. Knowing that others were going through the same thing made me feel seen and understood. His empathy sparked a sense of team spirit and support that I hadn't anticipated. Gradually, I let go of the fear of judgment and started to embrace my voice cracks as a natural part of growing up. This newfound sense of confidence and self acceptance transformed my interactions at school, making me feel more at ease and connected with my peers.

Alice Moore is a teenager entrepreneur (创业者), who in May 2015 set up her business AilieCandy. By the time she was 13, her company was worth millions of dollars with the invention of a super sweet treat that could save kids' teeth, instead of destroying them.
It all began when Moore visited a bank with her dad. On the outing, she was offered a candy bar. However, her dad reminded her that sugary treats were bad for her teeth. But Moore was sick of missing out on candies. So she desired to get round the warning, “Why can't I make a healthy candy that's good for my teeth so that my parents can't say no to it？” With that in mind, Moore asked her dad if she could start her own candy company. He recommended that she do some research and talk to dentists about what a healthier candy would contain.
With her dad's permission, she spent the next two years researching online and conducting trials to get a recipe that was both tasty and tooth friendly. She also approached dentists to learn more about teeth cleaning. Consequently, she succeeded in making a kind of candy only using natural sweeteners, which can reduce oral bacteria.
Moore then used her savings to get her business off the ground. Afterwards, she and her father secured their first business meeting with a supermarket owner, who finally agreed to sell Moore's product—CanCandy.
As CanCandy's success grows, so does Moore's credibility as a young entrepreneur. Moore is enthusiastic about the candy she created, and she's also positive about what the future might bring. She hopes that every kid can have a clean mouth and a broad smile.
Meanwhile, with her parents' help, Moore is generally able to live a normal teenage life. Although she founded her company early on in life, she wasn't driven primarily by profit. Moore wants to use her unique talent to help others find their smiles. She donates 10% of AilieCandy's profits to Big Smiles. With her talent and determination, it appears that the sky could be the limit for Alice Moore.

Many kids help out around the house with chores such as emptying the dishwasher, putting laundry away, and taking out the trash. In exchange, some kids get allowances or other rewards such as extra computer time.
But some people do not think that kids should get rewards for doing chores. Susie Walton, a parenting educator and family coach, believes that by rewarding kids, parents are sending a message that work isn't worth doing unless you get something in return. “Running any kind of household is a team effort，” Susie said. “A home is a living space for everyone in the family. It's important for kids to see that we all have responsibilities in the house, and that families decide together how they want their home to look, and how they are going to keep it looking like everyone wants it to look.”
Other people believe that getting a cash allowance or other rewards motivates kids to do chores, and it also teaches them real world lessons about how we need to work to earn money. There are also new applications that give kids points and digital gifts that can be redeemed (兑取) either online or in the real world. With the ChoreMonster app, kids earn digital points by completing chores that they can turn in for real life rewards such as extra Xbox time or a trip to the mall. “Our goal is to encourage kids to earn rewards，” says Chris Bergman, founder of ChoreMonster. “Kids need positive reinforcement to help motivate them.”
What do you think Should kids be rewarded for doing chores Or should kids help out around their homes without getting anything in return

When I was nine years old, I pulled out my grandmother's dress over my young frame, admiring myself in the mirror. I had no idea what I wanted to be when I grew up. Later in senior high school, I began to dream of being an adult to explore a big world and make adventures. However, I knew adulthood for me was still distant because I supported myself mainly with the money from my family.
Fresh out of college, I was working as a middle school teacher. I was in charge of young people and heavy with that responsibility. I arrived at school early and stayed late, preparing lessons and chatting with students. I was an official adult. I paid my rent and taxes. But I still felt as if I were playing a role. I was the adult authority figure who secretly didn't feel grown up in a room full of children. But I wasn't worried; I was convinced that it would happen soon.
To me, an adult is someone who is mature and trustworthy—a contributing member of the society. We strive to become adults while there is also someone who spends life constantly partying and avoiding responsibility. A grown up, however, is a state of mind. Our body gets older but something inside us doesn't feel as if it is progressing as quickly.
In the following ten years, I followed the routines of adulthood: getting married, giving birth and working. My 6 year old daughter and I often held hands, running breathlessly and laughing wildly. I tried to avoid eye contact with the nearby people who glared at us. I suspected they would prefer adults who would never slide down a giant hill of sand.
I turned 57 recently and it occurred to me that maybe I had it all wrong; I should stop waiting to feel grown up. What if we embraced (拥抱) the child like part of ourselves to enjoy it, guilt free If we're responsible adults and do all the adult things in a way that works, why should it matter if we don't feel grown up deep inside Non grown ups don't necessarily play games, but it isn't fun embracing the playful side of life Why can't we feel 57 and 15 years old at the same time
篇章导读：本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者就自己的成长过程来理解什么是成人以及应该怎样才能做好成人。
32．How did the author feel about adulthood when she was a teenager
A．She was unwilling to make adventures if she became an adult.
B．She showed no interest in thinking about it.
C．She was expectant and hopeful about it.
D．She had unknown fears for it.

33．What did the author believe would happen to her before long according Paragraph 2

34．What does the author mainly talk about in the third paragraph
A．What an adult means in her opinion.
B．What an adult's state of mind can be.
C．Why some people spend life avoiding responsibility.
D．Why it doesn't progress so quickly to become a grown up.
解析：段落大意题。根据第三段“To me ... as if it is progressing as quickly.(对我来说，成年人是成熟、值得信赖的人，是社会中有贡献的一员。我们努力成为成年人，但也有人一生都在寻欢作乐，逃避责任。然而，成年人是一种精神状态。我们的身体在变老，但我们内心的某些东西却没有那么快地变老。)”可知，本段主要讲述作者对成人的理解。故选A。
35．What advice does the author give to us through her story
A．Be true to your inner self.
B．It's never too late to learn.
C．Life is a bittersweet journey.
D．Nice souls are a masterpiece of time.

56.__________ 57.________ 58.________ 59.________ 60.________
61.__________ 62.________ 63.________ 64.________ 65.________
篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了英国“丝路花园”的整体设计以及其中新建成的玻璃温室。
56．答案：engineering
57．答案：functional
解析：考查名词。设空处修饰名词techniques，在句中作定语，表示“工程技术”。engineering意为“工程”，此处为名词。故填engineering。
解析：考查词性转换。设空处与protective并列，修饰设空后的名词structure，应用形容词。故填functional。
58．答案：to give
59．答案：closed
解析：考查非谓语动词。设空处所在句的谓语动词是open，应用非谓语动词。此处应用动词不定式表示目的。故填to give。
解析：考查词性转换。根据设空前的系动词stays可知，设空处应用形容词作表语，表示“关闭的”。故填closed。
60．答案：walks
61．答案：the
解析：考查动词的时态、语态和主谓一致。设空处在句中作谓语。walk sb through意为“带某人走过”。本句描述的是客观情况，应用一般现在时；walk与主语the Silk Route Garden之间为主动关系；主语是第三人称单数。故填walks。
解析：考查冠词。固定搭配for the first time意为“第一次”。故填the。
62．答案：favo(u)rites
63．答案：as
解析：考查名词。设空处作动词included的宾语，上文modern Western为定语，所以此处应用名词；根据下文“such as rosemary, lavender and fennel”可知，此处表示复数概念。favo(u)rite为可数名词时，表示“特别喜爱的事物”。故填favo(u)rites。
解析：考查介词。结合句意“该玻璃温室作为当代设计的伟大成就而存在”可知，此处表示“作为”，应用介词as。故填as。
64．答案：that/which
65．答案：richness
解析：考查定语从句的引导词。设空处引导定语从句，先行词为the Silk Route，指物，关系词在从句中作主语。故填that/which。
解析：考查词性转换。设空处在定冠词the之后，且设空后的of gardening对设空处进行限定，此处应用名词形式。故填richness。

第二节(满分25分)
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。
When starting my sixth grade year, I was nervous about many things. But nothing compared to the problem that I got to the age where my voice started changing. At first, the voice getting deep excited me. But then I learned before getting deeper, it can crack (变嘶哑)．
The first time it happened I was so embarrassed. Surprisingly, my friends didn't make fun of me. In fact, they didn't even mention it. But in my self conscious sixth grade mind I was certain they made fun of me behind my back. They weren't having the same problem.
After my first voice crack experience, I was determined to make sure it wouldn't happen again. At least not in public. So, except for strategic times I said, “cool” and “yeah”， I didn't talk. My logic was, “If I don't use my voice, it cannot crack.” However, I couldn't go without talking forever. I needed a new solution.
I began clearing my throat before speaking, which actually seemed to help. Limiting how much I spoke and clearing my voice made me much less stressful. This was great but there was a larger problem. I was much more scared about having a voice crack during class. My class had many new kids I'd never spoken with. I didn't want their first impressions of me to be based on a voice crack.
Unfortunately, one day my concern came true. It was about two months after the beginning of the term. On the day it happened everything was the same as always until I got into the classroom. I noticed that we had a substitute teacher (代课老师) and immediately started thinking about how he would take attendance. My permanent teacher never had to, since he already knew each student, I panicked. So many thoughts rushed through my mind that I couldn't think straight. I calmed myself down by telling myself that I only had to say one word “Here”. “Easy enough, right？” I thought so until my name was called. I did my routine—cleared my throat, took a breath, and said, “Here.” The only problem was that while saying this, I had the worst voice crack in the history of voice cracks.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150个左右；
2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
The whole class turned to look at me.﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍
“You know, the voice problem you met in class is normal，” a classmate came to me and said. ﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍
写前导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了“我”因为变声期的原因，嗓音变得嘶哑难听而感到自卑。在代课老师的课上，老师点名，“我”不得已必须答“到”，而这声“到”是“我”有史以来最严重的声音嘶哑。面对全班同学的目光，“我”该怎么办？同学们又是如何开导“我”的？
[精彩范文]
The whole class turned to look at me. My face burned with embarrassment as I felt each pair of eyes fixed on me. The substitute teacher's puzzled expression only added to the awkward moment. I wished the ground would open up and swallow me whole, but all I could do was shift uncomfortably in my seat. The whispers that followed were like knives to my self esteem. When the bell finally rang for the break, I rushed out of the classroom, feeling utterly humiliated. It seemed like the whole school now knew about my voice crack.
“You know, the voice problem you met in class is normal，” a classmate came to me and said. His reassuring words caught me off guard. As he shared his own similar experiences, I realized I wasn't alone in this struggle. Knowing that others were going through the same thing made me feel seen and understood. His empathy sparked a sense of team spirit and support that I hadn't anticipated. Gradually, I let go of the fear of judgment and started to embrace my voice cracks as a natural part of growing up. This newfound sense of confidence and self acceptance transformed my interactions at school, making me feel more at ease and connected with my peers.
