My father was always a good gardener. One of my earliest memories is standing without shoes in the freshly
tilled (翻耕的) soil, my hands blackened from digging in the ground.
As a child, I loved following Dad around in the garden. I remember Dad pushing the tiller ahead in perfectly
straight lines. Dad loved growing all sorts of things: yellow and green onions, watermelons almost as big as me,
rows of yellow corn, and our favorite-red tomatoes.
As I grew into a teenager, I didn’t get so excited about gardening with Dad. Instead of the magical land of
possibility, it had turned into some kind of prison. However, as Dad grew older, his love for gardening never
disappeared. After all the kids were grown and had started families of their own, Dad turned to gardening like never
before. Even when he had cancer, he still took care of his garden.
But then, the cancer, bit by bit, invaded his body. I had to do the things he used to do. What really convinced
me that Dad was dying was the state of his garden that year. The rows and rows of colorful vegetables were gone.
Too tired to weed (除草) them, he simply let them be. He only planted tomatoes.
A few years later, I couldn’t even bear to look at anyone’s garden without having strong memories pour over
me like cold water from a bucket. Last year, I decided to plant my own garden and started out with just a few
tomatoes. That morning, after breaking up an amount of soil, something caught the corner of my eye and I had to
smile. It was my eight-year-old son Jerry, happily playing in the freshly tilled soil.
41. What did the author like doing as a child in the garden?
A. Standing in the soil barefoot and painting.
B. Following Dad around and watching him work.
C. Pushing the tiller ahead in straight lines.
D. Growing all kinds of vegetables by himself.
42. The underlined word “invaded” in Paragraph 4 probably means ______.
A. entered B. protected C. left D. cured
43. How did the author’s attitude towards gardening change as he grew into a teenager?
A. He became more interested in it.
B. He lost interest in gardening with his dad.
C. He started to help his dad more actively.
D. His interest in gardening remained the same as before.44. What can we infer from last paragraph?
A. The author’s son doesn’t like gardening at all.
B. The author’s son will become a great gardener in the future.
C. The author’s son will take care of the garden instead of the author.
D. The author’s son’s behavior made the author think of his own childhood.
45. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The importance of gardening.
B. The author’s love for tomatoes.
C. The author’s father’s battle with cancer.
D. The author’s memories of his father and the garden.

Just like everyone has their own unique personal space needs, we also all have our own unique comfort zones.
Personal space boundaries keep others out while our comfort zones keep us in. Yet until we’re able to move beyond
what is comfortable for us, we won’t be able to grow or develop beyond our limits. Until you get outside your
comfort zone and consider other ideas, you won’t really know what you “know” or even know “why” you believe
what you believe.
The fear of leaving our comfort zones is a natural human emotion that often keeps us from exploring new
territories, trying new experiences, and accepting unfamiliar situations. It is a powerful force that can prevent us
from reaching our full potential and realizing our dreams.
Not only does stretching past your comfort zone allow you to develop into an adult, but it also enhances your
happiness in life. The happier you are with your life, the greater the positive change will be. Choosing how to
stretch yourself beyond the familiar can be more satisfying, too, than being assigned a particular activity. In a study,
researchers found that the most rewarding activity is one that stretches you to provide support or engage with
others.
It’s true that doing something beyond your normal range of activities can lead to fear. In the study, while 41
percent of the “comfort zone breakers” expressed feelings of fear, 70 percent described their feelings of courage at
breaking out of their comfort zone. In fact, facing a fear was a strong motivator for many of the participants in their
choice of activities. Being able to encounter a fear and overcome it provides a boost to your sense of self and your
brain responds with a boost of dopamine (多巴胺). There’s less stress on your body, too. At the same time, the fear
will decrease and eventually disappear.46. What can we know about comfort zones according to Para. 1?
A. Everyone has the same comfort zone.
B. Comfort zones help us grow and develop.
C. We should stay within our comfort zones all the time.
D. Stepping out of comfort zones is necessary for growth.
47. What can we learn from Para. 3?
A. Being assigned activities is more satisfying than choosing by ourselves.
B. Stretching beyond the comfort zone has nothing to do with happiness.
C. Engaging with others can be a rewarding way to stretch ourselves.
D. The more you stretch yourself, the less happy you will be.
48. What can we infer about dealing with fear in Para. 4?
A. It is simply a response to stress.
B. It is a sense of one’s own value.
C. It is an ability to control emotion.
D. It leads to positive outcomes.
49. What is the author’s attitude towards breaking out of the comfort zone?
A. Doubtful. B. Positive. C. Negative. D. Indifferent.
50. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. The disadvantages of leaving comfort zones.
B. The reasons for staying in comfort zones.
C. The importance of personal space boundaries.
D. The benefits of breaking out of comfort zones.

第Ⅱ卷（共35分）
第四部分：写作（共两节，满分35分）
阅读表达
Mum and Dad never noticed I was failing, but I don’t blame them. They had five children and a busy
household. I got through primary school, but within months after starting secondary education I’d been moved into
a class for “slow” kids. As far as I was concerned, that was where I belonged, but still felt ashamed.
At 14, I realized things weren’t going to get better. I’d soon leave school unqualified and unemployable.
Everyone would know I was stupid. Unable to talk about that with family or friends, I ran away from home.
Life was not easy for me, but I always found a way out. If I had to meet someone, I’d repeat the street name tomyself until I found a cab. I avoided situations where I’d have to sign my name. Bills were paid at the post office,
in cash. If I had to fill in an application form, I’d take it into the street and ask a passer-by for help. If someone
suggested a trip to the theatre, I’d find an excuse not to go.
The turning point emerged with the birth of my daughter, Henrietta. How could I expect her to thrive (茁壮
成长) if I wasn’t able to help her with homework? Who would read her bedtime stories, if not me? I was 30, and
couldn’t even recite the alphabet.
I took an evening course but kept it secret from my friends. Gradually, I started to gain what felt like a whole
new sense. Within a year, I was able to stand in front of my classmates and deliver a speech about the works of
William Blake. After that first year, I told my friends what I’d been up to. The relief was great; it’s like letting out a
breath I’d been holding for years. I realized how lonely I’d always been. Finally, I was able to be myself.
Today, my confidence is real, and I feel in control of everything I do. I run a guest house, work as a
photographer and am about to complete a degree in psychology and sociology.
51. Why didn’t the author’s parents notice she was failing? (No more than 10 words)

55. What do you think of learning at an older age or throughout one’s life?(No more than 20 words)

【答案】51. Because they had a big family and were very busy.
52. She would ask a passer-by for help.

【答案】Dear Chris,
I was really happy to get your email. I know you want to use AI to finish your Chinese homework. It’s fine to
use it, but don’t overdo it.
AI can help you a lot. You can ask it to find useful information. For example, if you need to write a
composition, you can ask AI for some ideas on how to organize it. You can also get some good sentences from it.
This will make it easier for you to do your homework.
But you must remember that not all the information AI gives is right. Some of it may be wrong. So, you need
to check the facts by yourself. This is also a good way to learn.
I hope my advice can help you. Keep in mind that the point of homework is to make you better at Chinese.
Use AI properly.
Yours,
