I was born in the city of York, in England, in 1632. My father was a man of some wealth, able to give the me a good home and send me to school. It was his wish that I should be a lawyer but my head began to be filled very early with thoughts of travel, and I would be satisfied with nothing but going to sea. One day, being at Hull, met one of my friends who was about to sail for London in his father’s ship, and he invited me to go with him. Without telling my father, I went on board.
On the way to London, our ship was destroyed by a storm, and we almost lost our lives. I went on foot to London, where I met with the master of a large ship which did business with countries on the coast of Africa. He offered me a chance to go with him, which I gladly accepted.
A great storm came up, and the ship was tossed (颠簸) about for many days, until we did not know where we were. Suddenly we hit a bank of sand, and the sea broke over the ship in such a way that we could not hope to have her hold many moments without breaking into pieces. So we used a boat instead. After we had been driven four or five miles,a mountainous wave (波浪) hit us so hard that it overturned the boat at once. I swam well but the waves were so strong that I was pushed against a rock with such force, and left unconscious. But I recovered a little before the waves returned, and, running forward, got to the mainland safely. I never regretted my decisions.

A girl is smiling at me from a picture on my desk. She is one of my sponsor (资助) children. I didn’t spend much money helping her. The joy from helping her gives me, however, is over the picture.
I can still remember the first time that I decided to help a child. It was many years ago, I was only a middle school student. I had a little extra (额外的) money each month. I didn’t feel like buying anything, though. A few years ago, we lost everything in a house fire. That fire bought me a lot. I cleared that I didn’t need a lot of things to be happy. From then on I began to care about the suffering of children in poor countries. With my mom’s help, I soon found a few groups and joined them. They were helping others around the world.
It felt so good being able to reach out and help others in need. It felt so good being able to make even one life better. I could feel the love growing in my head and beginning to change me.

On September 13th, I woke up in the best mood. It was a late start, so I got to sleep in. Not only did I get my full eight hours of sleep, but an additional two more hours as well. I got ready, danced in my room to my favorite music while I picked out my clothes, made my lunch, and was on my way to school. I arrived at 9: 50 a. m. Little did I know, in the next 20 minutes, my life would change forever. As I got out of my classroom, there he was, holding the gun.
Although everything happened so fast, in a matter of about 4 minutes, I remember it clearly. I remember every face I saw, and I remember every sound I heard. I remember the fear and the panic of the unknown. And lastly, I remember running. Running for my life. I ran down the stairs, out of the school’s front doors, and down the street to the primary school. I remember looking down at my feet. As I looked down I thought to myself, “ How am I running so fast?”
I finally made it to a safe classroom, and 20 other students and I settled in for lockdown. We stayed close to one another and cried. It felt as though the tears going down our faces would never stop. We passed our phones around to text our loved ones that we were safe and that there was a school shooter, shots were fired, and 4 students were injured thus far.

I’ve gotten used to travelling alone over the past few years, and have found it’s something I quite enjoy most of the time. One thing I still find difficult though is eating alone in foreign restaurants, especially during main dining hours, such as a Saturday night. And yet, that’s the position I found myself in last night, wanting to enjoy a final Parisian meal of oysters（牡蛎）. I headed to a spot close to my house. But, to my dismay, when I arrived around 8:15 it as if the restaurant were already full. And worse, everyone was eating with someone else, and all of a sudden I got a kind of lonely and sad feeling. But I wanted my oysters, so I asked a waiter, “Would it be possible to find a seat for me?”
He said, “It is quite full, but for you I will find a place!” I waited and he quickly returned and asked me to follow him. He pulled out a table next to another couple. This couple was using one of the chairs of my table to store their things, and as the waiter pulled out my chair, the gentleman began to remove his belongings. I told him it wasn’t necessary.
“You are alone?” He asked me. “Yes,” I said. And then the waiter came up.
“No! You are not alone! Now you are here, dining with us!” he said, smiling, and with a gesture of his hand indicating the restaurant.
It was perhaps one of the nicest things anyone has ever said to me. I settled into my seat and watched the families and couples enjoying their dinner while I slurped the last briny oysters of my visit. And the feeling of being alone was forgotten.

Martha Graham, one of the most famous dancers and creators of dance, brought modern dance to a new level. Born in a small town near Pennsylvania in 1894, she did not know she would become a dancer.

The phone rang. I waited for the answering machine to get it, but it was not picking up. I was angry because I knew the call was either going to be for my wife, Susan, who had left to take Alyce to school ten minutes earlier, or it was the latest of 300 attempts (企图) to sell me something I had absolutely no interest in. “Hello,” I said. “Daddy, it’s me, Alyce. Mommy was just in a car accident.” “Are you all right?” “Yes.” “Is Mommy?” A deep sob (哭泣).“I don’t know. . . I don’t think so. Come quick”. I walked quickly a few blocks to what looked like a shoot for a disaster movie. Fire engines, police cars, and ambulances were parked in the street; helicopters circled. A city bus was on the wrong side of the road. In front of it were the remains of Susan’s destroyed car.
Susan was trapped under the dashboard (仪表盘). Alyce was standing on the comer, crying, covered in some glass but uninjured. Susan wasn’t so lucky. But she was alive. She spent almost three months in the hospital.
More than two years later, Susan and I were at an event and met with a woman, who told us she lived in the apartment building by where the accident had happened. That morning, she rushed to the street and saw Alyce standing there, crying. Alyce told her that she needed to call me, but her phone was missing. So the woman lent Alyce her phone.
We had our picture taken together, and as we were saying goodbye, we realized we had never been formally introduced, so she said to me, I’m sorry, but I never got your name. I told her it was Doug, and she paused, as if she hadn't heard me. I repeated, “Doug, like Douglas.”

It was a hot summer day a few years ago. I had just walked into the local station. After pumping(抽取) the gas I started to walk inside to pay. That was when I noticed them.

Yellow jackets had never been my friends. Several times these wasps(黄蜂) had attacked(袭击) me while I was in a garden. They gave me stings(蜇) each time I ran over their nests.

Both of us were chased(追赶) by the yellow jackets. I ran to my mom with tears in my eyes. She immediately put us in a cold bath(洗澡) to ease(缓解)the pain before giving us medicine(药).
Still, I knew I couldn’t let fear stop me now. I reached into my pocket(口袋) for a paper towel I had there, tore(扯)out the nest and stepped on it while the angry wasps buzzed(发出嗡嗡声) around me. Both of the ladies thanked me and I said."You' re welcome! " with a smile and a happy heart.

Kim Hyung-ho arrived in China from the Republic of Korea on Aug 24,1992, which happened to be the same day that the two countries officially established diplomatic relations. Kim, just 19 at the time, came to China to study traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), a medical system with thousands of years of history and which enjoys popularity in many countries.
Kim’s passion for TCM took root in his teenage years after he had a twisted ankle treated with acupuncture. “It’s incredible that a little needle can have such magical powers. That experience inspired me to learn authentic TCM in the place from which it originated,” recalls Kim.
In 2013, he was hired as a TCM specialist by the international clinic of Qingdao Municipal Hospital. “Doctor Kim is a professional, hardworking and nice,” says Sun Jie, director of the clinic. “He also helps bridge the communication gap between our staff and Korean patients.” For those who have difficulty moving around, Kim will go to the patient’s home to offer treatment.
Apart from his daily work, Kim has also volunteered to provide free medical consultations in the countryside. He found that many rural people have been suffering from long time diseases such as high blood pressure, but are not aware of their conditions, let alone attend regular checkups. As a result, Kim led fellow volunteers to collect lists of people from different villages. The lists were handed to local authorities to keep track of the patients’ treatment. Kim also provided guidance for village doctors, which helped improve the standard of treatment in the area.
Three decades have passed since Kim set foot in China, and he’s very grateful for what he has gained in the country. “Medicine does not have boundaries. As a TCM doctor, I will continue to communicate with doctors in Korea and other countries to help it spread and flourish even further, so that more people can understand its excellence,” says Kim.
31．When did Kim become interested in TCM?
A．He learned the long history of TCM.
B．China and Korea had a close relationship.
C．He was treated with TCM when he was young.
D．Chinese medicine enjoyed great popularity in Korea.
32．What can we infer from the working experience of Kim?
A．Korean patients are specially treated.
B．Some rural patients will be tracked by volunteers.
C．A blind patient may get a home treatment by Kim.
D．High blood pressure patients will be completely cured.
33．What does the underlined word “flourish” in the last paragraph mean?
A．Crash. B．Develop. C．Remain. D．Increase.
34．What is the purpose of this text?
A．To express patients’ demand. B．To recommend TCM treatment.
C．To explain a medical phenomenon. D．To introduce an international doctor.
As a dropout myself, I often feel it is my duty to defend my fellows. Common wisdom would have you believe we are the “bad kids’’, the future criminals, the worst sort of people. But not all dropouts are likely to deal drugs, steal goods from a shop, or shoot pool all day.
My own favourite place to go when skipping school was always the public library. My early retirement meant that at last I had time to read everything I wanted to. I found reading Thomas Pynchon’s Gravity’s Rainbow a lot more interesting than reading about Sir Isaac Newton and the falling apple.
The best of all was the time I finally had to myself. I felt liberated. I had been in school nearly my whole life. I wanted to find out for myself who I was, and until I did, everything else felt like a waste of time.
However, after three years, a series of strange thoughts began to make me anxious and unsure. Images of myself at the age of 35 began to haunt (困扰) me in my sleep. And a voice in my head began asking over and over, “Who is paying the hot water bills? Who buys the microwave pizza?” The answer, of course, was my poor old parents. Sure, I was having an enjoyable time doing plenty of nothing, discovering myself and all, but that 9s unfair to them. What kind of parents long to see their child drop out of school, with no plans for the future? Could they be expected to support me forever? Certainly not. I immediately moved out of the house and out of town, in search of a future for myself.
And it is here, in my new home of San Francisco, that I have decided to do what was once unthinkable: go back to school. I plan to take adult education classes and then apply to City College. On the one hand, I can hardly believe I’m doing it: a return to desks, chalkboards, and clocks that tell you when to stop thinking about one thing and start thinking about another. But at City College, I’ll be able to take film production, semiotics, and sociology—just because I want to know about them.
So next time you see a dropout, be sympathetic. And please don’t push him to do something he doesn’t want to do. It never works. He’ll come round when he’s ready.
35．It is commonly believed that dropouts are ______.
A．bad kids from birth
B．interested in studying drugs
C．very likely to commit crimes
D．responsible for defending non-scholars
36．What did the author find most enjoyable after dropping out of school?

C．Escaping the pressure from school.

37．Why did the author move to San Francisco?
A．To fight for his own future.
B．To apply to City College.
C．To break away from his parents.
D．To live up to his parents9 expectations.
38．What does the author suggest people do to deal with dropouts?
A．Push them to the limit.
B．Listen to them carefully.
C．Try to be understanding.
D．Encourage them to be friendly.
As I had grown up in Belgium, going to university in the UK made me feel lost and lonely. Although I was struggling, I felt unable to share how I was feeling with anyone and didn’t know where I could turn for support.
Things were getting harder and harder, and one day I was on my way back to university when I had a sudden thought that ending my life would be a way out. I was in my own world when a lady standing nearby came up for me and said: “Are you waiting for a train? Are you OK?”
Although I didn’t say much back to her, the little conversation was all it took to interrupt my thoughts of ending life. I got the next train back to university. The small talk was a wake-up call and made me realize it’s OK to reach out for help. I spoke to my university and they provided me with a teacher to help. I also shared my feelings with my loved ones. By seeking some timely and useful help and being honest about what I was feeling, I created a strong support network that I could lean on when I needed to.
When I started working at Network Rail in 2012, I heard that Samaritans provided training for staff working in the rail industry on identifying and helping people who may be vulnerable. Instantly, I knew I had to sign up. I wanted to turn my experience into something useful and positive, and to equip myself to help others who might be feeling like I did back then. The training was fantastic and interestingly shone a light on the fact that everyone has the skills to save a life.
So, if you ever notice someone who you think might be struggling, try talking to them. You already have everything you need to save a life. Take it from me, starting a conversation can be all that it takes.
39．How did the author feel when studying in the UK?
A．Unadaptable. B．Generous. C．Worthwhile. D．Appealing.

C．A small talk can make a big difference.
D．Where there is a will, there is a way.
When my father, who grew up on Tyneside, moved to the country in the 70s, he rapidly began accepting invitations to blood sports. He enjoyed the company, the sport and the hours spent out in the wild.
From about the age of eight, I was invited to accompany him on these weekend excursions, much like a child being taken to their first football matches. I was fed up with the early starts and standing around in freezing conditions, waiting for birds to be driven into the sky, to their deaths, over a line of booming guns. But I wanted to please my dad.
So years later-aged 27, I accepted an invitation to go deer hunting in Scotland with my father.
The hunting party assembled one Friday in September. The driver was also our ghillie, a tough figure whose job it was to identify elderly or weak deer that were selected for hunting and guide us to them through wind, fog and rain.
“Why are you doing this?” I kept asking myself. “What would have been wrong with a walk? Or a guided wildlife tour?”
And then, suddenly, the ghillie almost pushed me to the ground. He pointed at a cloud of fog about a hundred yards ahead. I was baffled, until the cloud lifted like a curtain to reveal-directly in front of us one of the most magnificent living creatures I have ever seen.
“Now!” the ghillie hissed in my ear. “Now’s your chance. The deer! Remember. You want to kill it, not wound it.”
I adjusted my position, focused down the scope once more and placed my finger on the trigger (扳机). And, of course, I didn’t fire. Another curtain of mist came; when it lifted, seconds later, the stag had disappeared.
But I wasn’t disappointed. I was elated. I had come — via a telescopic sight — face to face with an old but most beautiful, iconic and noble beasts of Britain, roaming free in an empty and deserted land of his kingdom.
It was moment of truth and lasting inspiration. I could never have killed that deer-not in any context, for any reason But I would, a decade Inter, write a story about him Not just one book, but four, about little boy and the stag that persuades him to help save the world’s last remaining animals The encounter with that magnificent stag changed my life And guess what-those stories did please my dad.

Fisayo Longe started her fashion label Kai Collective to celebrate all female forms—not just the western idea of beauty. “I feel my clothes transform you into a woman who is more confident,” says Longe.
Born in London and raised in Lagos, Nigeria, before returning to the UK when she was 15, Longe’s original outlet for her love of fashion was her blog Mirror Me. Having a passion for travel, Longe would pick up fabrics from the countries she visited and make clothes for herself, which she posted on social media. As her creations started to become a hit, the seed for her own brand was planted.
“I wanted something I could put 100% of my creativity into, something that belonged to me and women like me,” explains the business owner, who recalls going into a high street store and the jeans not fitting her body very well.
Longe says, “I’ve always wanted to build that kind of community of women because, having grown up in Nigeria, I feel some women are made to feel they have to dim (使暗淡)their light—we don’t realize our power. Things are all centred around men and marriage. I want to build a community that focuses on ourselves and our confidence.”
With no formal fashion training, Longe set up Kai Collective four years ago with money borrowed from her mum. Longe is the first to admit she was rather “naive” when she started, giving an example of heading to Turkey with her mother to find a company to produce her designs. “That’s not the way to find producers,” she says. “It’s much better to go to trade shows.”
But whatever she’s doing, it’s obviously working, with the brand featured in an Elle magazine cover shoot with the model Adwoa Aboah, as well as in Beyonce’s black-owned businesses list.
47．How did Longe express her love of fashion at first?
A．By setting up her own brand. B．By making her clothes while travelling.
C．By visiting high street stores frequently. D．By putting her designs on social media.
48．What is Longe trying to do?
A．To help women realize their dreams. B．To stress women’s role in a community.
C．To inspire women to live independently. D．To encourage women to find their own value.
49．What can we learn about Longe when she first started her business?
A．She was afraid of failure. B．She got formal fashion training.
C．She lacked relevant experience. D．She hunted for producers at trade shows.
50．What does the last paragraph want to tell us about Longe?
A．She is on the right track. B．She will never give up.
C．She has great ambitions. D．She is really hard-working.

阅读理解
I was born in the city of York, in England, in 1632. My father was a man of some wealth, able to give the me a good home and send me to school. It was his wish that I should be a lawyer but my head began to be filled very early with thoughts of travel, and I would be satisfied with nothing but going to sea. One day, being at Hull, met one of my friends who was about to sail for London in his father’s ship, and he invited me to go with him. Without telling my father, I went on board.
On the way to London, our ship was destroyed by a storm, and we almost lost our lives. I went on foot to London, where I met with the master of a large ship which did business with countries on the coast of Africa. He offered me a chance to go with him, which I gladly accepted.
A great storm came up, and the ship was tossed (颠簸) about for many days, until we did not know where we were. Suddenly we hit a bank of sand, and the sea broke over the ship in such a way that we could not hope to have her hold many moments without breaking into pieces. So we used a boat instead. After we had been driven four or five miles,a mountainous wave (波浪) hit us so hard that it overturned the boat at once. I swam well but the waves were so strong that I was pushed against a rock with such force, and left unconscious. But I recovered a little before the waves returned, and, running forward, got to the mainland safely. I never regretted my decisions.

A girl is smiling at me from a picture on my desk. She is one of my sponsor (资助) children. I didn’t spend much money helping her. The joy from helping her gives me, however, is over the picture.
I can still remember the first time that I decided to help a child. It was many years ago, I was only a middle school student. I had a little extra (额外的) money each month. I didn’t feel like buying anything, though. A few years ago, we lost everything in a house fire. That fire bought me a lot. I cleared that I didn’t need a lot of things to be happy. From then on I began to care about the suffering of children in poor countries. With my mom’s help, I soon found a few groups and joined them. They were helping others around the world.
It felt so good being able to reach out and help others in need. It felt so good being able to make even one life better. I could feel the love growing in my head and beginning to change me.

On September 13th, I woke up in the best mood. It was a late start, so I got to sleep in. Not only did I get my full eight hours of sleep, but an additional two more hours as well. I got ready, danced in my room to my favorite music while I picked out my clothes, made my lunch, and was on my way to school. I arrived at 9: 50 a. m. Little did I know, in the next 20 minutes, my life would change forever. As I got out of my classroom, there he was, holding the gun.
Although everything happened so fast, in a matter of about 4 minutes, I remember it clearly. I remember every face I saw, and I remember every sound I heard. I remember the fear and the panic of the unknown. And lastly, I remember running. Running for my life. I ran down the stairs, out of the school’s front doors, and down the street to the primary school. I remember looking down at my feet. As I looked down I thought to myself, “ How am I running so fast?”
I finally made it to a safe classroom, and 20 other students and I settled in for lockdown. We stayed close to one another and cried. It felt as though the tears going down our faces would never stop. We passed our phones around to text our loved ones that we were safe and that there was a school shooter, shots were fired, and 4 students were injured thus far.

I’ve gotten used to travelling alone over the past few years, and have found it’s something I quite enjoy most of the time. One thing I still find difficult though is eating alone in foreign restaurants, especially during main dining hours, such as a Saturday night. And yet, that’s the position I found myself in last night, wanting to enjoy a final Parisian meal of oysters（牡蛎）. I headed to a spot close to my house. But, to my dismay, when I arrived around 8:15 it as if the restaurant were already full. And worse, everyone was eating with someone else, and all of a sudden I got a kind of lonely and sad feeling. But I wanted my oysters, so I asked a waiter, “Would it be possible to find a seat for me?”
He said, “It is quite full, but for you I will find a place!” I waited and he quickly returned and asked me to follow him. He pulled out a table next to another couple. This couple was using one of the chairs of my table to store their things, and as the waiter pulled out my chair, the gentleman began to remove his belongings. I told him it wasn’t necessary.
“You are alone?” He asked me. “Yes,” I said. And then the waiter came up.
“No! You are not alone! Now you are here, dining with us!” he said, smiling, and with a gesture of his hand indicating the restaurant.
It was perhaps one of the nicest things anyone has ever said to me. I settled into my seat and watched the families and couples enjoying their dinner while I slurped the last briny oysters of my visit. And the feeling of being alone was forgotten.

Martha Graham, one of the most famous dancers and creators of dance, brought modern dance to a new level. Born in a small town near Pennsylvania in 1894, she did not know she would become a dancer.

The phone rang. I waited for the answering machine to get it, but it was not picking up. I was angry because I knew the call was either going to be for my wife, Susan, who had left to take Alyce to school ten minutes earlier, or it was the latest of 300 attempts (企图) to sell me something I had absolutely no interest in. “Hello,” I said. “Daddy, it’s me, Alyce. Mommy was just in a car accident.” “Are you all right?” “Yes.” “Is Mommy?” A deep sob (哭泣).“I don’t know. . . I don’t think so. Come quick”. I walked quickly a few blocks to what looked like a shoot for a disaster movie. Fire engines, police cars, and ambulances were parked in the street; helicopters circled. A city bus was on the wrong side of the road. In front of it were the remains of Susan’s destroyed car.
Susan was trapped under the dashboard (仪表盘). Alyce was standing on the comer, crying, covered in some glass but uninjured. Susan wasn’t so lucky. But she was alive. She spent almost three months in the hospital.
More than two years later, Susan and I were at an event and met with a woman, who told us she lived in the apartment building by where the accident had happened. That morning, she rushed to the street and saw Alyce standing there, crying. Alyce told her that she needed to call me, but her phone was missing. So the woman lent Alyce her phone.
We had our picture taken together, and as we were saying goodbye, we realized we had never been formally introduced, so she said to me, I’m sorry, but I never got your name. I told her it was Doug, and she paused, as if she hadn't heard me. I repeated, “Doug, like Douglas.”

Yellow jackets had never been my friends. Several times these wasps(黄蜂) had attacked(袭击) me while I was in a garden. They gave me stings(蜇) each time I ran over their nests. They are the reason I never do gardening anymore. The worst time, however, happened when I was a young boy.My friend and I were running and playing in my backyard(后院).I must step on one of their nests before I knew it. Both of us were chased(追赶) by the yellow jackets. I ran to my mom with tears in my eyes. She immediately put us in a cold bath(洗澡) to ease(缓解)the pain before giving us medicine(药).
Still, I knew I couldn’t let fear stop me now. I reached into my pocket(口袋) for a paper towel I had there, tore(扯)out the nest and stepped on it while the angry wasps buzzed(发出嗡嗡声) around me. Both of the ladies thanked me and I said."You' re welcome! " with a smile and a happy heart.

Kim Hyung-ho arrived in China from the Republic of Korea on Aug 24,1992, which happened to be the same day that the two countries officially established diplomatic relations. Kim, just 19 at the time, came to China to study traditional Chinese medicine (TCM), a medical system with thousands of years of history and which enjoys popularity in many countries.
Kim’s passion for TCM took root in his teenage years after he had a twisted ankle treated with acupuncture. “It’s incredible that a little needle can have such magical powers. That experience inspired me to learn authentic TCM in the place from which it originated,” recalls Kim.
In 2013, he was hired as a TCM specialist by the international clinic of Qingdao Municipal Hospital. “Doctor Kim is a professional, hardworking and nice,” says Sun Jie, director of the clinic. “He also helps bridge the communication gap between our staff and Korean patients.” For those who have difficulty moving around, Kim will go to the patient’s home to offer treatment.
Apart from his daily work, Kim has also volunteered to provide free medical consultations in the countryside. He found that many rural people have been suffering from long time diseases such as high blood pressure, but are not aware of their conditions, let alone attend regular checkups. As a result, Kim led fellow volunteers to collect lists of people from different villages. The lists were handed to local authorities to keep track of the patients’ treatment. Kim also provided guidance for village doctors, which helped improve the standard of treatment in the area.
Three decades have passed since Kim set foot in China, and he’s very grateful for what he has gained in the country. “Medicine does not have boundaries. As a TCM doctor, I will continue to communicate with doctors in Korea and other countries to help it spread and flourish even further, so that more people can understand its excellence,” says Kim.
31．When did Kim become interested in TCM?
A．He learned the long history of TCM.
B．China and Korea had a close relationship.
C．He was treated with TCM when he was young.
D．Chinese medicine enjoyed great popularity in Korea.
32．What can we infer from the working experience of Kim?
A．Korean patients are specially treated.
B．Some rural patients will be tracked by volunteers.
C．A blind patient may get a home treatment by Kim.
D．High blood pressure patients will be completely cured.
33．What does the underlined word “flourish” in the last paragraph mean?
A．Crash. B．Develop. C．Remain. D．Increase.
34．What is the purpose of this text?
A．To express patients’ demand. B．To recommend TCM treatment.
C．To explain a medical phenomenon. D．To introduce an international doctor.
As a dropout myself, I often feel it is my duty to defend my fellows. Common wisdom would have you believe we are the “bad kids’’, the future criminals, the worst sort of people. But not all dropouts are likely to deal drugs, steal goods from a shop, or shoot pool all day.
My own favourite place to go when skipping school was always the public library. My early retirement meant that at last I had time to read everything I wanted to. I found reading Thomas Pynchon’s Gravity’s Rainbow a lot more interesting than reading about Sir Isaac Newton and the falling apple.
The best of all was the time I finally had to myself. I felt liberated. I had been in school nearly my whole life. I wanted to find out for myself who I was, and until I did, everything else felt like a waste of time.
However, after three years, a series of strange thoughts began to make me anxious and unsure. Images of myself at the age of 35 began to haunt (困扰) me in my sleep. And a voice in my head began asking over and over, “Who is paying the hot water bills? Who buys the microwave pizza?” The answer, of course, was my poor old parents. Sure, I was having an enjoyable time doing plenty of nothing, discovering myself and all, but that 9s unfair to them. What kind of parents long to see their child drop out of school, with no plans for the future? Could they be expected to support me forever? Certainly not. I immediately moved out of the house and out of town, in search of a future for myself.
And it is here, in my new home of San Francisco, that I have decided to do what was once unthinkable: go back to school. I plan to take adult education classes and then apply to City College. On the one hand, I can hardly believe I’m doing it: a return to desks, chalkboards, and clocks that tell you when to stop thinking about one thing and start thinking about another. But at City College, I’ll be able to take film production, semiotics, and sociology—just because I want to know about them.
So next time you see a dropout, be sympathetic. And please don’t push him to do something he doesn’t want to do. It never works. He’ll come round when he’s ready.
35．It is commonly believed that dropouts are ______.
A．bad kids from birth

As I had grown up in Belgium, going to university in the UK made me feel lost and lonely. Although I was struggling, I felt unable to share how I was feeling with anyone and didn’t know where I could turn for support.
Things were getting harder and harder, and one day I was on my way back to university when I had a sudden thought that ending my life would be a way out. I was in my own world when a lady standing nearby came up for me and said: “Are you waiting for a train? Are you OK?”
Although I didn’t say much back to her, the little conversation was all it took to interrupt my thoughts of ending life. I got the next train back to university. The small talk was a wake-up call and made me realize it’s OK to reach out for help. I spoke to my university and they provided me with a teacher to help. I also shared my feelings with my loved ones. By seeking some timely and useful help and being honest about what I was feeling, I created a strong support network that I could lean on when I needed to.
When I started working at Network Rail in 2012, I heard that Samaritans provided training for staff working in the rail industry on identifying and helping people who may be vulnerable. Instantly, I knew I had to sign up. I wanted to turn my experience into something useful and positive, and to equip myself to help others who might be feeling like I did back then. The training was fantastic and interestingly shone a light on the fact that everyone has the skills to save a life.
So, if you ever notice someone who you think might be struggling, try talking to them. You already have everything you need to save a life. Take it from me, starting a conversation can be all that it takes.

When my father, who grew up on Tyneside, moved to the country in the 70s, he rapidly began accepting invitations to blood sports. He enjoyed the company, the sport and the hours spent out in the wild.
From about the age of eight, I was invited to accompany him on these weekend excursions, much like a child being taken to their first football matches. I was fed up with the early starts and standing around in freezing conditions, waiting for birds to be driven into the sky, to their deaths, over a line of booming guns. But I wanted to please my dad.
So years later-aged 27, I accepted an invitation to go deer hunting in Scotland with my father.
The hunting party assembled one Friday in September. The driver was also our ghillie, a tough figure whose job it was to identify elderly or weak deer that were selected for hunting and guide us to them through wind, fog and rain.
“Why are you doing this?” I kept asking myself. “What would have been wrong with a walk? Or a guided wildlife tour?”
And then, suddenly, the ghillie almost pushed me to the ground. He pointed at a cloud of fog about a hundred yards ahead. I was baffled, until the cloud lifted like a curtain to reveal-directly in front of us one of the most magnificent living creatures I have ever seen.
“Now!” the ghillie hissed in my ear. “Now’s your chance. The deer! Remember. You want to kill it, not wound it.”
I adjusted my position, focused down the scope once more and placed my finger on the trigger (扳机). And, of course, I didn’t fire. Another curtain of mist came; when it lifted, seconds later, the stag had disappeared.
But I wasn’t disappointed. I was elated. I had come — via a telescopic sight — face to face with an old but most beautiful, iconic and noble beasts of Britain, roaming free in an empty and deserted land of his kingdom.
It was moment of truth and lasting inspiration. I could never have killed that deer-not in any context, for any reason But I would, a decade Inter, write a story about him Not just one book, but four, about little boy and the stag that persuades him to help save the world’s last remaining animals The encounter with that magnificent stag changed my life And guess what-those stories did please my dad.

Fisayo Longe started her fashion label Kai Collective to celebrate all female forms—not just the western idea of beauty. “I feel my clothes transform you into a woman who is more confident,” says Longe.
Born in London and raised in Lagos, Nigeria, before returning to the UK when she was 15, Longe’s original outlet for her love of fashion was her blog Mirror Me. Having a passion for travel, Longe would pick up fabrics from the countries she visited and make clothes for herself, which she posted on social media. As her creations started to become a hit, the seed for her own brand was planted.
“I wanted something I could put 100% of my creativity into, something that belonged to me and women like me,” explains the business owner, who recalls going into a high street store and the jeans not fitting her body very well.
Longe says, “I’ve always wanted to build that kind of community of women because, having grown up in Nigeria, I feel some women are made to feel they have to dim (使暗淡)their light—we don’t realize our power. Things are all centred around men and marriage. I want to build a community that focuses on ourselves and our confidence.”
With no formal fashion training, Longe set up Kai Collective four years ago with money borrowed from her mum. Longe is the first to admit she was rather “naive” when she started, giving an example of heading to Turkey with her mother to find a company to produce her designs. “That’s not the way to find producers,” she says. “It’s much better to go to trade shows.”
But whatever she’s doing, it’s obviously working, with the brand featured in an Elle magazine cover shoot with the model Adwoa Aboah, as well as in Beyonce’s black-owned businesses list.
47．How did Longe express her love of fashion at first?
A．By setting up her own brand. B．By making her clothes while travelling.
C．By visiting high street stores frequently. D．By putting her designs on social media.
48．What is Longe trying to do?
A．To help women realize their dreams. B．To stress women’s role in a community.
C．To inspire women to live independently. D．To encourage women to find their own value.
49．What can we learn about Longe when she first started her business?
A．She was afraid of failure. B．She got formal fashion training.
C．She lacked relevant experience. D．She hunted for producers at trade shows.
50．What does the last paragraph want to tell us about Longe?
A．She is on the right track. B．She will never give up.
C．She has great ambitions. D．She is really hard-working.
