（2026·安徽阜阳·一模）One sunny morning, a little lamb (小羊) wanted to visit his two good friends, a pony (小马) and an ox (小牛), in one day. The pony’s house and the ox’s house were close to the foot of the hill, but on opposite sides. However, both of their houses were far away from the lamb’s house.
The lamb soon found a big problem. If he chose to go to the pony’s home first, he would spend most of the day on the tiring trip and would not have enough time to visit the ox before dark. And if he decided to see the ox first, he couldn’t make it to the pony’s house before sunset. Standing at his door, the little lamb thought hard, recalling the fun times he had playing hide-and-seek (捉迷藏) with the pony and eating sweet fresh grass with the ox. He kept asking himself, “Who should I visit first ” The more he thought, the more worried he became, afraid of disappointing either of his close friends. He stood there, not knowing where to start. His mind went empty, and he had no idea how to make this hard decision. The bright sunny day suddenly seemed to turn gray because of his deep confusion (困惑).

（2026·安徽芜湖·一模）Wu Dajing, a famous Chinese short - track speed skater (短道速滑运动员), recently said goodbye to the ice rink (冰场) quietly. There was no big ceremony (仪式) or loud cheers. He simply stepped off the ice—the place where he had spent most of his life.
When he was a little boy, Wu Dajing was quiet. Other kids played and laughed, but he chose to skate. He fell. Again and again. More than 100 times. The ice was hard and cold, but he never cried. He never complained. He just stood up, brushed the ice off his clothes, and tried again.
In junior high school, he became even more hard-working. Every morning, before the sun came up, he was already on the ice alone. The rink was cold and empty. His body ached. But he never said a word. He just kept skating—faster, stronger, better.
Later, he made it to the national team. At first, no one noticed him. But he didn’t mind. He trained harder in silence, pushing himself day after day.
Then came the Olympic Games. He won gold. He became a world champion. But he didn’t change. No loud words. No showing off. He just smiled quietly.
Now, he leaves the ice. No big goodbye. Just a quiet step away. But his story stays. It tells us: being quiet doesn’t mean being weak.

（2026·安徽马鞍山·一模）A group of young people used to fish in a small but deep lake. To their surprise, there was a fisherman always fishing in a part of the river not far from the small lake. The young people thought the fisherman was silly. It’s impossible to catch fish in such big waves (波浪). It was wishful thinking.
One of the young men asked the fisherman, “Catching fish in these rapid waters isn’t possible. Why are you still here ” The fisherman said nothing, but picked up his basket and put it upside down. Suddenly a number of fish fell out of the basket. The young man was very surprised. Why did the fisherman catch such big fish in such rapid waters The fisherman smiled and said. “The low oxygen (氧气) in the lake is enough for small fish, but these big fish need more oxygen in the water. They can only go somewhere with big waves. There’s more oxygen in the bigger waves, so there are more big fish there.”
Again, the fisherman said, “Strong winds and waves seem to be the sufferings (困难) for fish, but these sufferings are the best oxygen feeders for fish. Only by going through difficulties can fish grow strong.”

I was a shy girl when I was in school. I often stayed quiet during classes. Every time a teacher asked me a question, my voice would shake and I would speak as little as possible. Then, I’d sit lower in my seat and wait quietly until the class was over.
This situation continued through my middle school years. As time passed, I felt increasingly awful and lost. I even started to think that maybe I was meant to just be shy and unnoticed.
Just before starting Grade 9, I talked to my sister about how I was feeling, “I am so bored.” She replied, “It’s your fault (错误), You never do anything!” I always knew I wanted to belong to a group and I understood that I had to start somewhere. I realized that speaking up was the first step I had to take.
One day, we had a small group discussion in class and I got up all my courage to share my ideas with everyone. Little by little, it started to have an effect. Sometimes, they even replied to what I was saying. Suddenly, I felt I was part of the discussion. This is how I started to make friends—friends who liked to hear what I had to say. I finally felt accepted.
Finding my voice was hard, but it helped me find the courage to be the person I wanted to be.Now that I’m older, I can easily say this has made all the difference.

Leo saw his neighbor, Mr. Clark, an old man with a big, messy garden. “Can I help with your garden for some money ” Leo asked. Mr. Clark smiled, “Yes, but I can only pay a little.”

Leo looked at the colorful flowers, the clean paths, and Mr. Clark’s happy face. He suddenly understood. He felt a warm, happy feeling inside—much better than getting any new toy.

And if he decided to see the ox first, he couldn’t make it to the pony’s house before sunset.

Then came the Olympic Games. He won gold. He became a world champion. But he didn’t change. No loud words. No showing off. He just smiled quietly.

I was a shy girl when I was in school. I often stayed quiet during classes. Every time a teacher asked me a question, my voice would shake and I would speak as little as possible. Then, I’d sit lower in my seat and wait quietly until the class was over.
This situation continued through my middle school years. As time passed, I felt increasingly awful and lost. I even started to think that maybe I was meant to just be shy and unnoticed.
Just before starting Grade 9, I talked to my sister about how I was feeling, “I am so bored.” She replied, “It’s your fault (错误), You never do anything!” I always knew I wanted to belong to a group and I understood that I had to start somewhere. I realized that speaking up was the first step I had to take.

Sometimes, they even replied to what I was saying. Suddenly, I felt I was part of the discussion. This is how I started to make friends—friends who liked to hear what I had to say. I finally felt accepted.

Leo was a twelve-year-old boy who always wanted new things—a better bike, the latest games. One summer, he wanted money to buy a special soccer ball. His parents said, “Why not make it ”
Leo saw his neighbor, Mr. Clark, an old man with a big, messy garden. “Can I help with your garden for some money ” Leo asked. Mr. Clark smiled, “Yes, but I can only pay a little.”
Leo agreed. He worked hard every afternoon. He pulled weeds (杂草), watered plants, and swept the paths. It was hot and tiring. Mr. Clark often sat nearby, telling stories about the flowers and the trees he planted.
One day, after three weeks, the garden looked beautiful. Leo felt proud. When Mr. Clark gave him the money, it was much less than the ball cost. Leo was upset.
Seeing Leo’s disappointment, Mr. Clark said softly, “Look at this garden now. You didn’t just grow plants; you grew beauty and peace.”
Leo looked at the colorful flowers, the clean paths, and Mr. Clark’s happy face. He suddenly understood. He felt a warm, happy feeling inside—much better than getting any new toy.
Leo bought a simpler ball with the money and kept helping Mr. Clark. He learned a very important lesson: True happiness often comes from helping others and seeing the good change you can make.

My family has always had family dinner, as far as I can remember. Since I was a little boy, my mother has insisted (坚持) that we attend family dinners at least once a week.
