As the saying goes, “It takes a village to raise a child.” And one Massachusetts community certainly takes that
to heart.
In the summer of 2016, Glenda and Raphael Savitz moved into their new home in Newton and had their
daughter Samantha soon. Unluckily, Samantha was born deaf. But that didn’t stop Samantha growing into an
outgoing girl. When she was out, she tried to communicate with her neighbors. But they couldn’t understand her
because they didn’t know sign language (手势语). It made them a little upset.
Instead of giving up, the neighbors decided to learn sign language together. They found a sign language
teacher and took classes in Lucia’s living room. Lucia has lived in Newton for over 20 years. She believes in the
power (影响) of community. “Samantha is creating a reason for us to get together,” she says.
It was not easy for the neighbors to learn sign language, but they enjoyed the process (过程). Before long, they
could communicate with the little girl freely. Both Samantha and her parents were very happy. “We are seeing
changes in Samantha. We’re just so thankful that we live here and we are surrounded (被围绕) by these wonderful
people,” Samantha’s mother says. “I can’t think of a better place for my daughter.”
And they’re not the only ones who say they’re thankful. “Samantha is doing something for us,” say some
neighbors. “She has made our community closer.”

Watson entered Mr. Smith’s office. The boss was a hard man. He fired people who didn’t do well without
giving them a second chance.
“Watson,” said Mr. Smith, “this past year your department hasn’t earned money. We’re going to drop that
department. It’s finished. I’m sorry, ________.’’ “But, sir—if I just had a little more time. For the moment I need
the job to keep my son at Riverside School.”
“What’s that!” said the boss. “Riverside! I didn’t know you had a boy there. That’s an expensive school for a
man with your salary(薪水).”
“I know, sir. But he likes it there so much! He’s a star athlete and the best boxer in the school. The boys call
him Champ (冠军) there.”
The boss sat seriously still for a long time—a faraway (恍惚的) look in his eyes. Then, suddenly, he said,
“We’ve got to close your department, Watson. But you’ll take over a new job in another department. It means
longer hours—maybe more pay. Now get out. You’re here for life.”

with sick pain. The letter read:

you’re a cripple (跛脚的人). But don’t worry about me, Dad. And there’s one boy here who is really great. He’s a
track star and boxing champ and just tops in chemistry. The boys call him Champ. He made them stop throwing my
books around. And he knocked a boy down who hit me. He is the best friend I ever had. Dad, I am so grateful to

（2022·河南·郑州外国语中学模拟预测）
Do you get nervous thinking about coming math test? If yes, you are far from alone. Math anxiety has become
a common psychological condition among students around the world. Students in countries with higher levels of
math anxiety tend to achieve lower math grades, according to a study published in the National Academy of
Sciences on Feb 15, 2022.
Math anxiety-a negative emotional reaction to the core subject causes fear, physical suffering and behavior
problems among young pupils, according to a University of Cambridge study. In ordinary life, many people
experience some degree of discomfort when faced with a math problem, ranging from mild stress to strong fear.
Some people also experience physical changes such as having sweaty (出汗的) hands or a racing heart. They
may then try to avoid every situation including number, meaning they are held back from working in the fields
related to this subject, such as science, technology or engineering, according to The Guardian.
Reassurance (慰藉) comes from the fact that those with math anxiety aren’t born to be bad at math. “If a childhas math anxiety, don’t think that they’re not good at math. They may have had a really bad experience with math
and there are ways to improve math achievement,” Daniel Ansari, the senior author of the study told The London
Free Press. Students with math anxiety are not cognitively (认知地) disadvantaged.
Also, there are ways to manage your stress related to math. If you’re feeling stressed before a math exam, it
may help to spend a few minutes exploring those feelings before the exam begins. It’s about making sure you
understand your feelings correctly. Just because you have a fast heartbeat and sweaty palms, that does not
necessarily mean you will fail.
A little math anxiety could be taken as a positive challenge to overcome. Just like many people get stage fright
before delivering a speech, this nervous energy can help to motivate.
36．What do we know about math anxiety?
A．People with math anxiety are often bad at math.
B．Having math anxiety will make you fail the math test.
C．It may cause physical changes.
D．Math anxiety is common among teenagers.
37．Which picture shows the physical change of math anxiety?
A． B． C． D．
38．According to the passage, which is the best way to deal with Peter’s math anxiety?
A．Practice hard before a speech competition.
B．Take challenges to overcome stage fright.
C．Ask teachers for help.
D．Get to understand his feelings before exam begins.
39．Which may not be the future job for a man who is experiencing serious math anxiety?
A．An engineer. B．An artist. C．A Chinese teacher. D．A lawyer.
40．Who will be inspired by the passage?
A．A girl who is good at dancing. B．A pupil who is weak in Chinese.
C．A student who gets lower math grades. D．A scientist who likes word puzzles.
