（2022·全国·高考真题）It was the day of the big cross-country run. Students from seven different primary
schools in and around the small town were warming up and walking the route(路线)through thick evergreen forest.
I looked around and finally spotted David, who was standing by himself off to the side by a fence. He was
small for ten years old. His usual big toothy smile was absent today. I walked over and asked him why he wasn’t
with the other children. He hesitated and then said he had decided not to run.
What was wrong? He had worked so hard for this event!
I quickly searched the crowd for the school’s coach and asked him what had happened. “I was afraid that kids
from other schools would laugh at him,” he explained uncomfortably. “I gave him the choice to run or not, and let
him decide.”
I bit back my frustration(懊恼). I knew the coach meant well—he thought he was doing the right thing. After
making sure that David could run if he wanted, I turned to find him coming towards me, his small body rocking
from side to side as he swung his feet forward.
David had a brain disease which prevented him from walking or running like other children, but at school his
classmates thought of him as a regular kid. He always participated to the best of his ability in whatever they were
doing. That was why none of the children thought it unusual that David had decided to join the cross-country team.
It just took him longer—that’s all. David had not missed a single practice, and although he always finished his run
long after the other children, he did always finish. As a special education teacher at the school, I was familiar with
the challenges David faced and was proud of his strong determination.

（2020·海南·高考真题）The Meredith family lived in a small community. As the economy was in decline, some
people in the town had lost their jobs. Many of their families were struggling to make ends meet. People were
trying to help each other meet the challenges.
Mrs. Meredith was a most kind and thoughtful woman. She spent a great deal of time visiting the poor. She
knew they had problems, and they needed all kinds of help. When she had time, she would bring food and medicine
to them.
One morning she told her children about a family she had visited the day before. There was a man sick in bed,
his wife, who took care of him and could not go out to work, and their little boy. The little boy -his name was
Bernard-had interested her very much.
“I wish you could see him,” she said to her own children, John, Harry, and Clara. “He is such a help to his
mother. He wants very much to earn some money, but I don't see what he can do.”
After their mother left the room, the children sat thinking about Bernard. “I wish we could help him to earn
money,” said Clara. “His family is suffering so much.”
“So do I,” said Harry. “We really should do something to assist them.”
For some moments, John said nothing, but, suddenly, he sprang to his feet and cried, “I have a great idea! I
have a solution that we can all help accomplish(完成).”
The other children also jumped up all attention. When John had an idea, it was sure to be a good one. “I tell
you what we can do,” said John. “You know that big box of corn Uncle John sent us? Well, we can make
popcorn(爆米花), and put it into paper bags, and Bernard can take it around to the houses and sell it.”

（2022·江苏省泰州市模拟预测）May 18, 1986, was the kind of beautiful, sunny day that regularly brought the
Rodriguez family to Santa Catalina Island for some fishing on their nine-metre pleasure boat, the DC Too. They
spent the day fishing in the Pacific Ocean, then left the island in the early evening.
Soon thick fog rolled in. Louise fell into a light sleep beside her five-year-old sister, Trisha, at a table on the
boat’s lower deck. Their father’s sharp orders frightened her awake: “Get out of the boat. It’s sinking!” Louise
pushed her sister into the cold, dark water. The girls were followed by their mother, Petra Rodriguez. Both girls
wore life jackets,but the adults did not. Within seconds, the boat capsized, leaving just the tip of its bow in the air.
After some time, her father told them he would swim for help. Louise watched him disappear into the
darkness. A while later, her mother went still. Then her sister died, too.
Pisano and Strasser, both 25, were going on a fishing expedition. The fog was so thick that they couldn’t even
see the stern(船尾) of the boat. They decided to try one more spot before going home. Late that afternoon, the fog
cleared and the sun started shining. On their return voyage, about 11 kilometres away from Catalina Island, Pisano
noticed something yellow floating in the water.
Strasser steered(驾驶) the boat closer and Pisano jumped into the water. He swam toward the figure and
grabbed the life jacket. Fortunately, Louise was saved and quickly sent to hospital. The little girl soon recovered,
but the search for Louise’s father, sister and mother was in vain.
Louise was adopted by her aunt and uncle. She attended college, got married in 2013 and gave birth to a son.
In her late 20s, Louise began to wonder about her rescuers. She even tried to find them but no luck. One day,
Louise came across a magazine article featuring Pisano talking about the 1986 rescue.

（2022·山东师范大学附中模拟预测）You know how when big things in your life aren’t going well, the little
things bother you more? Yet one tiny kind act that appears in the path may easily light up your whole life and give
you hope again.
Like many people during the pandemic, my husband, Paul, had been laid off. I was still working, but my job
would likely be ending soon too. I was worried about money, Covid-19 and our future. That’s when our mailbox
really started getting to me.
The mailbox, relic from the previous homeowners, had already been in rough shape when we moved in. The
paint was faded. The metal pole holding up the box was rusted. It stood at the end of our long driveway, far enough
away from our house. Every time I saw it, it just reminded me of all the problems in my life. “I wish we had a
better mailbox, ”I found myself thinking as I pulled out of the driveway. I probably would have forgotten all about
it if it were not for the news we got one morning.
“Shelly just texted, ”Paul said. Shelly was a neighbor and a good friend. “A girl drove her car right into the
mailbox. Completely mowed it down. ”I sighed, heart almost falling apart. “Shelly saw it happen. The driver, just a
teenager, wasn’t hurt, but she was really upset, ”Paul added.
As much as I wanted a new mailbox, getting it would be expensive. “That certainly wasn’t in the budget, ”I
thought. I guess it’s true what they say: Be careful what you wish for.
I went to work in low spirits. While doing the usual tasks, I received a text from Shelly again, “That teenage
girl named Audree came by and repaired your mailbox.”
