Grace Carr has been studying, working or volunteering at the same hospital for almost as long as she’s been alive — and at 97 years old, she doesn’t plan on stopping anytime soon.
Grace started training to become a nurse at St. Luke’s Sacred Heart Campus in 1944.She was just 17 years old. “As long as I can remember, I wanted to be a nurse and work in a hospital,” says Grace. For the past eight decades, Grace has been an almost constant presence at “The Heart”, as the hospital is affectionately called by staff.
Grace retired when she was 65. She started volunteering at the hospital in 1993 after her husband, Edward Carr, died. She has volunteered for more than 6,000 hours so far, coming in every Wednesday to offer patients water, cheer them up with flowers, take them to tests and procedures and bring specimens (标本) to the hospital’s lab.
“We call her Amazing Grace,” says Beth Fogel, the hospital’s volunteer engagement specialist, who has known Grace for 20 years. “From the time she shows up in the morning until she leaves in the afternoon, she’s like an Energizer Bunny (兔子), always eager to help and so much fun to be around.”
Grace says she would always like to volunteer at the hospital as a retiree. “I couldn’t imagine my life without it,” she says. “I love the people there, and my health is good, so I’m happy to help however I can.”
Burnout is high in the nursing profession, and Grace acknowledges that she has experienced momentary waves of stress and tiredness throughout her career. “When you work in a hospital, you see both the best and worst life has to offer, “ she says. “It was really, really tough watching someone suffer or die and knowing we couldn’t do more to help them.”
But Grace says the more joyous occasions — such as the birth of a baby or a surgery going well — along with the meaningful relationships she built helped her carry on through the challenges.
4. What motivated Grace to be a nurse at St. Luke’s Sacred Heart Campus
A. Family tradition. B. Financial stability.
C. A desire from her childhood. D. Her husband’s encouragement.
5. What did Grace do when she volunteered at the hospital
A. She delivered babies. B. She trained new nurses.
C. She managed the hospital lab. D. She brightened patients’ spirits.
6. Why does Beth Fogel call Grace “Amazing Grace”
A. She is very old but still works hard. B. She is willing to assist and full of energy.
C. She excels at making friends with patients. D. She brings flowers to the hospital every week.
7. Why does the author write the text
A. To describe the daily routine of a nurse.
B. To promote the hospital where Grace works.
C. To discuss the challenges of the nursing job.
D. To praise Grace’s devotion to nursing and volunteering.
C
A native language or “mother tongue”, is the first language a person learns and is usually a key part of their identity, allowing them to connect with their family and friends and to accept their culture. But is it possible to forget your native language — for example, if you move to another country and start speaking a different dialect or language
Linguists (语言学家) call this phenomenon “native language attrition”, or the process in which you become less competent in your native language over time — perhaps because you’re not using it as much.
Experts say it’s possible to forget your native language in certain circumstances, particularly in the case of young children moving to a different country or region where a different language is spoken. A prime example of this are young children who are adopted by families who live in other countries.
“However, the older you are when you move, the greater the likelihood that you’ll keep your native language because you’ll have established a much more solid grounding in it,” said Laura Dominguez, a professor of linguistics at the University of Southampton in the UK. “Therefore, it’s improbable that a teenager or an adult will forget whole chunks (语块) of language, like how to construct the past tense,” she said.
In fact, studies show that people are less likely to forget their native language after they reach their teenage years. This is probably because beyond this age, our brains mature and become less flexible and receptive to change. “That said, the part of your native language that is most likely to be lost even after short periods is vocabulary,” Dominguez said. “An area of language that is slightly more resistant to being forgotten than vocabulary is grammar,” she added.
8. What is the function of the first paragraph
A. To introduce the topic of the text. B. To define what a native language is.
C. To offer some background knowledge. D. To emphasize the importance of culture.
9. What does the underlined word “attrition” in paragraph 2 probably mean
A. Improvement. B. Loss. C. Barrier. D. Development.
10. Why do adults rarely forget their native language completely, according to Dominguez
A. They have a stronger sense of identity.
B. Their brains are more flexible to change.
C. Their foundation in their native language is more solid.
D. They are more exposed to their native language in daily life.
11. Which of the following would be the best title for the text
A. The Power of Language B. The Importance of Mother Tongue
C. Can You Forget Your Native Language D. How Do You Maintain Your Native Language
D
In my ninth-grade writing class last year, I met a cowboy who saved his town, a strict father who demanded his son earn straight A’s, and a modern-day Juliet who died of heartbreak after her parents rejected the love of her young life. More than once, I found myself wondering just how my students, who’d created these people, knew their subjects so well.
But things were different for their first essay, which was about the question: “Why is writing important ” Most of the essays filled less than one page, and few contained a sentence that could be interpreted as a thesis (论点) statement. I was shocked. Then I realized that the problem was the question itself. They could have written pages on the necessity of computers, but writing, in and of itself, simply didn’t strike them as important. This would have to change.
As a new unit started, I asked everyone to write a persuasive piece on a health-related topic of their choice. This time they found the exercise much more interesting. For the next two assignments, a personal-narrative unit followed by a creative-writing workshop, I only required that the piece meet the specifications of its genre (体裁) and that it contain a thesis. The results were staggering. The students took on diverse topics and turned in stories, 10 to 20 pages each, with characters that broadened my view and touched my heart.
I walked into class believing that writing is important as a means of communication. However, my students demonstrated something more important to me. When the final bell rang in June, I walked away with a yearbook full of messages about writing’s most powerful significance — the ability to connect people, to put us in another’s skin, to teach us what it means to be human.
12. Who are the people mentioned at the beginning of paragraph 1
A. Ninth graders. B. Students’ parents.
C. Modern writers. D. Fictional characters.
13. Why did the students perform poorly in writing their first essay
A. They were not given enough time. B. They had a very limited vocabulary.
C. They misunderstood the question. D. They had little interest in the topic.
14. What does the underlined word “staggering” in paragraph 3 mean
A. Mixed. B. Amazing. C. Similar. D. Disturbing.
15. What does the author’s experience show
A. Teaching is learning. B. Still waters run deep.
C. Knowledge is power. D. Practice makes perfect.

How to Make Friends in High School
Friendships matter a lot for high school students — they encourage confidence, reduce the stress of school life, and support personal growth. However, making friends is not easy for everyone, especially when starting a new school or entering a new class. ____16____
Join after-school activities.
____17____ Joining sports, clubs or groups based on personal interests is a great way to meet classmates with similar passions. These places offer natural chances to connect with others. They allow students to chat naturally about things they love, like discussing a song in the music club or planning a match in the sports team, which helps them feel a sense of belonging quickly.
Don’t spend too much time on screens.
Technology is helpful in daily life, but too much screen time may reduce face-to-face communication. ____18____ This kind of interaction can improve communication skills, which is useful for making friends. For example, working on a group project in the library or playing a team game on the playground lets students talk and cooperate more. They can also set a 30-minute daily limit for phone use after homework, leaving more time for in-person talks.
____19____
If face-to-face talks make students feel nervous, safe online groups can be a good start. These groups let them share ideas without pressure, helping build confidence, and online friends may even become real-life ones. Students should choose platforms with strict safety rules, never share personal information like phone numbers, and meet online friends in public if they trust each other.
Learn from good examples.
It is helpful to watch how good friends behave — they are usually honest, kind and open. ____20____ For instance, good friends listen carefully when others share worries and keep promises. Besides, being a good listener and caring about others’ feelings also helps. These small acts make friendships stronger and last longer.

B. Practise online interaction carefully.
C. Shared hobbies often bring teens closer.
D. These qualities teach you about friendship.

47. 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。
We all like to think that we have all the time in the world, but do we really This question stayed in my mind as I faced the tough situation of nearly losing my father. That unforgettable experience taught me a lesson about the shortness of life and the importance of treasuring every moment with our loved ones.
Our family was a tight unit built around my father’s work as a truck driver — he spent long hours on the road delivering goods across the state, but always made sure to be home for Sunday dinners. Dad was more than just a provider; he was the backbone of our family, the one who fixed broken bikes and reminded us daily that “hard work and heart can get you through anything”. We’d grown used to his routine — leaving in early mornings, returning in late evenings — and never thought twice about how delicate those moments of togetherness might be.
It was a quiet morning in September when my life took an unexpected turn. Around 3:30, a gentle whisper in my ear awakened me from sleep, “Judy, Judy, wake up.” Half-asleep and confused, I found myself staring at my aunt Eva, who was standing over me. “Aunt Eva, are you really here, or am I dreaming ” I asked, trying to distinguish reality from a dream. Her response was both relieving and alarming, “Yes, it is me. Everything is going to be OK. You just need to get up, get dressed, and help your little sisters get ready.” Despite her attempts at calmness, I could tell for sure the seriousness of the situation from the tremble in her voice.
As soon as we were ready, we piled into Aunt Eva’s car, still confused about the unfolding events. “Where are we going Where are my mom and dad ” I asked. Aunt Eva, trying to maintain her calmness, replied, “I am going to take you to them. Just have a short sleep, and I will wake you up when we are there.” The 30-minute drive to Memorial Hermann Hospital felt almost like a century. As we eventually entered the emergency room, I saw my mom crying softly over there.
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。
At that moment, I knew something was terribly wrong.

After months of stay in the hospital, my father was finally allowed to return home.
