A woman in Lakewood,Washington,wanted to find a boy who left $5 and a
heartbreaking apology note on her doorstep.On Friday,Marie found this note from “Jake”:
“I am sorry that I took your butterfly wind chimes(风铃) without your permission.My
mum died and she liked butterflies so I took them to put them by our window.Now I feel
terrible for my past behaviour.I am sorry.This is the only money I have.Please do not be mad
at me.”
Marie said she was not mad and wanted to find Jake to return his $5.“I wanted to cry
because apparently he felt bad for what he had done.And I think he might be scared,” she told
the station.Marie said she knows stealing is immoral,but she is sympathetic to the child.“I’m
not agreeing with the stealing act but he did try to make up for what he had done.I lost my
mum at a young age so I really make sense of his feeling and know how hard it is,” she said.
Marie wanted to find Jake,not to punish him,but to return his money for his
honesty.Marie moved to the neighbourhood two months ago and didn’t know many people
there,which made tracking down Jake difficult.
In order to find the boy,she turned to Meta.Almost a week later,her Meta post got much
attention from social media,but she still didn’t hear from the boy.Marie said she wanted Jake
to know that she had no intention of embarrassing or scaring him by asking him to reveal
himself.She also said she was willing to help Jake with his schooling if she could find him.
1.Why did Jake feel sorry
A.He caught butterflies in Marie’s garden.
3
B.He stole five dollars from a woman.
C.He lost something borrowed from Marie.
D.He took Marie’s wind chimes without permission.
2.What do Marie and Jake have in common
A.Their mums liked butterflies.
B.They lost their mums in childhood.
C.They collected wind chimes.
D.They took something of neighbours.
3.What makes it hard for Marie to find Jake
A.Her neighbours’ unwillingness to help her.
B.Her considerable shyness.
C.Her announcement to punish the boy.
D.Her being unfamiliar with the neighbourhood.
4.Which of the following can best describe Marie

In the 1970s,a new supermarket selling LPs arrived in my hometown and I began
devoting my pocket money to acquiring records.I swiftly developed an affection for
Beethoven’s Moonlight Sonata,harboring dreams of performing that music myself.Despite
the absence of a piano at home,there was one at my grandmother’s care home,where I learned
to play Beethoven by ear,with pigeons cooing and farmers working in the fields.It was truly
magical.

Entering the Royal Academy of Arts at 16 marked the beginning of my artistic
journey.In my 30s,I took another significant step in life-marriage.My wife worked at
Elephants World,a reserve dedicated to the care of rescued domestic elephants.These
elephants have worked for humans all their life and many are blind or disabled from being
treated badly,so I wanted to make the effort to carry something heavy myself.For my 50th
birthday,my wife successfully persuaded the manager to allow us to bring a piano into the
reserve,bringing music to the elephants’ lives.
Initially,when I started playing,it was hard to hear the piano above the sounds of nature
and the elephants chewing grass.However,everything changed when a blind elephant ceased
eating and tuned into my playing.It struck me that this elephant,trapped in a world of
darkness,had a profound love for music.From that moment on,there was no longer any
concern about disturbing their peace.We occasionally film these performances,and now,we
proudly have nearly 700,000 subscribers.
I continue to play for these elephants that run freely in the reserve,despite the constant
potential danger.Surprisingly,it’s the moody male elephants who show the most fascination
with the music.I firmly believe it has a calming effect.These elephants’ breathing actually
slows down when I play,which tells me they are relaxed and happy.I’ve even witnessed
elephants seemingly dancing to Beethoven’s tunes.With their exceptional hearing and the
ability to sense vibrations(震动) through their feet,I am convinced that elephants grasp the
language of human expression.This serves as a powerful illustration that music serves as a
universal language,connecting us all.

In this digital age,people measure their popularity by the number of “likes” and
followers they get on social media.But as it turns out,people are happier when their friends
are of high quality rather than huge quantity.
Scientists from the University of Leeds in the UK studied data from two online surveys
of nearly 1,500 people.Those who took the survey gave details about their age,social
interactions,and how satisfied they were with their social lives.The researchers found that
those who had a small number of close friends generally tended to be happier than those who
had a large number of superficial(关系浅薄的) friends.
“Loneliness has less to do with the number of friends you have,and more to do with how
you feel about your friends,” said Bruine de Bruin,one of the researchers.

He found that older people tended to have smaller social circles than young people,but
the people in these circles tended to be closer to them.He also found that younger people
tended to have larger social circles that were made up of“peripheral(次要的) others”—people
who are not their true friends,but just the ones they know.These people had no influence on
their happiness.
The results of the study show that the opinion society has about old people being sad and
lonely might not be accurate.
“The research shows that older adults’ smaller networks don’t decrease their social
satisfaction and happiness.In fact,older adults tend to report a better sense of well-being than
younger adults,” said Bruine de Bruin.
9.According to the study,when do people tend to be happier
A.When they have friends of huge quantity.
B.When they have a small circle of close friends.
C.When they have a lot of followers on social media.
D.When they make friends with older people.
10.What can we learn from paragraph 4
A.Older people’s friends seem to be of higher quality.
B.Younger people don’t need to make peripheral friends.
C.Older people’s happiness has nothing to do with their friends.
D.Both older and younger people find it hard to make close friends.
11.Which word might Bruine de Bruin use to describe older adults
A.Sad. B.Happy.
C.Lonely. D.Concerned.
12.What is the focus of this article
A.Different types of friends in one’s life.
B.Changes in people’s happiness levels.
7
C.Interactions between older and younger people.
D.The relationship between happiness and the quality and quantity of friends.
Ⅵ.七选五

1 ,as long as your friend makes time to get together when it’s appropriate,such as on a
weekend and during vacation time.If your friend doesn’t want to make the time or comes up
with a lot of excuses every time you try,then you will have a warning sign that he or she is
not interested in being around you much.
2 .If your friend does come,is he or she being friendly with you or is he or she
ignoring you,just eating the cake and leaving early Since you are the host or the center of

Think about how you feel when you talk around your friend.A true friend is someone
who won’t judge you.You don’t have to be careful about what you say when you’re around
the right person. 4 .Anything less is not true friendship.
