I expected them to turn away and turn me away . Out of my expectation, they just smelled my lunch
curious. Katrina first shouted, “What is it?” My throat tightened, and I tried to take away my lunch when she
continued, “Can I have a taste?” “Of course!” relief mingled with excitement, accumulating in my heart. I was
amazed to see her taking a bite and letting out a scream, “Delicious!” Hearing that, her friends also tasted my
lunch and shared theirs with me. Thanks to mom’s tofu, we got familiar and became friends.
When I arrived home, my mom asked how my day went. I hugged her tightly and said, “Thank you,
mom!” I explained what had happened at lunchtime to her. A bright smile leaked out on her face when I asked
“Could you cook Chinese dishes for me again?” “Of course!” In the following days, every lunch time I would
share my mom’s dishes with my new friends. Their enthusiasm erased my bad memories. Never will I forget
the golden times we enjoyed. It’s the love from my mom and friends that encourages me to be myself.

W: Dad, look! I can climb the stairs now!
M: Oh my God, sweetheart! Be careful not to trip on the steps. Your legs haven’t fully recovered yet. And the
doctor advised you to avoid unnecessary movements.

M: You’ve come back just in time. The TV drama is about to start.
W: I don’t feel like watching TV. I’m dying of thirst.
M: There happens to be some fresh orange juice in the fridge. When you go to get it, please bring some bread
for me.

W: Are you going to apply to lead the new project? The application deadline is this Friday.
M: I’m still hesitating.
W: It’s already Wednesday. Remember, he who hesitates is lost. If you haven’t applied by Friday, you’ll miss
the chance.
M: You’re right. I’ll hand in my application tomorrow.

M: Jenny, I heard you moved house last weekend. What kind of place are you living in now?
W: It’s just a little flat, right next to the City Library. I really love the kitchen.
M: Oh, that area is nice and quiet.
Text 5
W: Excuse me, sir, your dog isn’t on a lead. It’s against the rules of our park.
M: Oh, sorry. I wanted to train my dog to catch the frisbee.
W: I understand, but dogs without a lead can be a threat to the safety of visitors.

W: ⑥It’s said that a researcher named 16 newly discovered spiders after some pop songs.
M: Really? Naming spiders after pop songs seems strange.
W: I disagree. ⑥I think it’s an appealing way of naming spiders. It can draw public attention to science. In
学科网（北京）股份有限公司fact, combining science with culture and art is a trend among researchers, especially younger ones. For
example, ⑦in 2019, a deep-sea creature was named after the character Dorotea from the novel Don
Quixote.
M: I know a new insect species was named after the Chinese poet Su Shi in 2024. But I think such names
might cause misunderstandings.

W: Uncle Ian, ⑧Grandma and I found this old notebook during the spring-cleaning. She said it was yours. Can
I open it?
M: Sure, it’s my high school classmate-record-book. It contains my classmates’ contact information, photos,
messages, etc.
W: Sounds fun! ⑧Can we go through it together?
M: Of course.
W: Good! ⑨The first page is about Jim Brown. He wrote so many messages!
M: Yes. ⑨He was my deskmate. Now he’s an army medical doctor.
W: That’s cool! Let’s move on to the next page. This one is about Anna Smith. She even added a photo of
herself. She looks so familiar. I think I’ve seen her somewhere.
M: You might have, because she lives on the same block as us.
W: No wonder! ⑩She wrote, “I hope you achieve your three wishes: to become a college teacher, to learn to
fly a plane, and to travel around Europe.”
M: ⑩So far, I’ve only achieved the first one.
W: There’s always time for the other two wishes.

M: ⑪⑬Alisa, how was your weekend?
W: Eric and I had a busy weekend. ⑪At noon on Saturday, we had Italian dishes with Eric’s family at the
restaurant you recommended.
M: That restaurant really has some great dishes.
W: Yes, it does. ⑪In the late afternoon, I went to the dentist.
M: ⑪Why did you go to the dentist again? To have a tooth pulled out or get a filling?
W: Neither, ⑪I just had a check-up this time. One of my teeth on the right side ached when I drank cold water.
I got an X-ray, and the doctor said the tooth was just sensitive and there wasn’t a big problem.
M: That’s good to hear. ⑫⑬What did you do on Saturday night?
W: We went to see a stand-up comedy. After that, ⑫we went shopping. Eric bought a tie, and I tried on some
T-shirts and trousers, but I didn’t find anything I liked.
M: ⑬What did you do the next day?
W: ⑬We spent a whole day going on a bike trip in the countryside.

W: ⑭What do you usually do when you feel stressed?
M: ⑭I usually jog five kilometers. I think jogging is an escape from the pressure of my life.
W: I tried doing yoga and reading comic books to reduce stress before, but they didn’t help much. Fortunately, I
discovered a very effective way to reduce stress — sound healing.
M: Sound healing? Can you be more specific?
W: Simply speaking, it’s healing through sound. A sound therapist uses instruments to produce sounds from
nature to relax people.
M: ⑮What kind of instruments are usually used?
W: There are guitars, the Chinese guqin, gongs and handpans. ⑮Among them, I enjoy the Chinese guqin the
most.
M: Where can you experience sound healing?
W: I currently go to a sound therapy center. In addition, ⑯some yoga studios and tea rooms also offer sound
healing. I first experienced sound healing during a yoga class.

The Worcester Public Library announced that through the end of March, people who have lost or
damaged a book or other borrowed items can bring a photograph, drawing or magazine clipping of a cat,
and make their library cards work again without paying fines. ⑲The library called the program March
Meowness, a way to forgive people who lost or damaged borrowed items by accident. ⑰Jason Homer, the
executive director of the library, said in an interview on Monday that about 400 people had their library
accounts unblocked and could borrow books again after bringing in their pictures or drawings of cats. ⑱In
学科网（北京）股份有限公司one case, a cat-less 7-year-old boy, who lost the book Captain Underpants, had his library card work
again after the staff gave him paper and a pencil to draw a cat. Like many public libraries in the United
States, ⑲the Worcester Public Library is trying to encourage people to return there after the pandemic.
The library had previously tried to raise the number of visitors with canned food drives. The library staff
held meetings for several months to come up with different creative ways to get people back through the
library doors. After these meetings, the Meowness program took shape. While the library had previously
stopped charging fines for late returns, many people who faced fees for lost items simply stayed away.
⑳One woman named Julie, who had lost library DVDs by accident, regained access to her account with a
photograph of a cat.
