When I was 14, I met Mrs. Korthaus, a warm English teacher, who gave me the best     
 
 1      
 
  in my life.
She inspired me to explore my     
 
 2      
 
 . Living in a small town, I had a     
 
 3      
 
  vision and was 
unwilling to step out of my comfort zone. I performed well in school, but I wasn’t genuinely investing in myself — 
in fact, I

  success. It was a     5     that I met Mrs. Korthaus and I didn’t get my way. She had an 
important part in that and made writing, literature and communications a     
 
 6      
 
  to the world.
25 years later, I received an unexpected call: a college needed an English teacher. Thinking of my role 
model, I     
 
 7      
 
 . I connected with students from different backgrounds, who came with their own

— a mom balancing work and life, a young man escaping a troubling past. I

  Mrs. Korthaus and tried to

help them.
I treated all my students with the same approach but there were a few who managed to     
 
 10
      
 
 . They 
were the students who were open with me about their difficulties, trusting that I would be part of their     
 
 11
      
 
 . 
At the end of the semester, I received my highest evaluation score, which was a     
 
 12
      
 
  statement: “I feel this 
instructor cares about me.”
I finally

  the real success of a teacher: to inspire and help each student feel

Korthaus lit the way for me, and now I

It happened in Australia’s Kakadu National Park. I scanned the water     
 
 1      
 
  for an ancient killer: a 
saltwater crocodile (鳄鱼). No ripples (涟漪), no sound. But I knew it was there.     
 
 2      
 
 , just beneath the 
surface. It could even be     
 
 3      
 
  me right now.
Crocodiles are among the world’s most     
 
 4      
 
  hunters. Their eyes and noses are     
 
 5      
 
  high on 
their heads, while their whole body is just beneath the water surface. With explosive tail power and the ability to 
stay underwater for hours, their design has     
 
 6      
 
  unchanged for 95 million years. In short, they’re     
 
 7      
built for the kill.
As I continue to scan the water, I see     
 
 8      
 
 : a soft ripple. Then, just a few metres away, two eyes break 
the surface. The silent beast     
 
 9      
 
  me. I feel my heart racing. I take a few steps to the left; the crocodile 
silently follows. Then a few to the right; and again, it     
 
 10
      
 
  me. I’m a dot on its radar. I can’t help but feel 
awe for this ancient hunter as it remains motionless, waiting for me to make a     
 
 11
      
 
 , to take one step too 
many. It has almost endless     
 
 12
      
 
 .
In a world of constant change, where we’re always seeking innovation and     
 
 13
      
 
 , it’s easy to forget 
that some things are     
 
 14
      
 
  just the way they are. When the foundation is strong, there’s no need to     
 
 15
     
much at all.

【解析】文章讲述了作者在卡卡杜国家公园近距离观察潜伏的湾鳄,感叹其进化完美、捕猎能力强悍且极
具耐心,并由此感悟:世间不必一味求变革与革新,根基稳固便无需刻意改变。
1.考查动词。句意:我扫视着水面,搜寻着一种古老的掠食者——湾鳄。A. searching 搜寻;B. longing 渴
望;C. caring 关心;D. preparing 准备。根据后文“But I knew it was there.”可知,作者扫视水面是为了寻找

Invisible 看不见的;D. Hesitant 犹豫的。根据前文“No ripples, no sound.”可知,鳄鱼藏在水面下,不动也
不发出声音,因此是“看不见的”。
3.考查动词。句意:它此刻甚至可能正注视着我。A. leaving 离开;B. ignoring 忽视;C. watching 注视;

4.考查形容词。句意:鳄鱼是世界上最高效的捕猎者之一。A. flexible 灵活的;B. effective 有效的;C.

5.考查动词。句意:它们的眼睛和鼻子长在头部较高的位置,而整个身体却潜藏在水面之下。A. placed
放置;B. positioned 使位于;C. fixed 固定;D. bent 弯曲。此处讲鳄鱼身体器官的生长位置,position 作动
词表示“使位于,定位”,符合描述生物构造位置的语境。

万年来一直保持不变。A. remained 保持;B. appeared 出现;C. enjoyed 享受;D. suffered 遭受。根据空后
“unchanged for 95 million years.”可知,鳄鱼的身体构造9500 万年一直没有改变,remain unchanged 是固定
搭配“保持不变”。

eventually 最终;D. partially 部分地。根据前文“Crocodiles are among the world’s most   hunters.”可知,前

8.考查名词。句意:当我继续扫视水面时,我察觉到了一丝动静:一圈淡淡的涟漪。A. effect 效果;B. 
success 成功;C. surprise 惊讶;D. movement 动静。根据空后“a soft ripple”可知,水面泛起了涟漪,因此

9.考查动词短语。句意:这头沉默的猛兽把目标锁定在了我身上。A. jumps at 欣然接受;B. locks onto 锁
定;C. counts on 依靠;D. runs into 偶遇。根据后文“I feel my heart racing. I take a few steps to the left; the 
crocodile silently follows.”可知,作者移动鳄鱼就跟着,说明鳄鱼锁定了作者。
10.考查动词。句意:接着我又向右挪了几步,它依旧在暗中尾随我。A. frightens 使害怕;B. tricks 欺骗;
C. tracks 跟踪;D. hurts 伤害。根据上文“I take a few steps to the left; the crocodile silently follows.”可知,作

只要基础足够稳固,根本不需要做出太多的改变。

At 42, I walked into a community college classroom for the first time, feeling like a fish out of water. I’d 
dropped out of high school when I was 17,     
 
 1      
 
  myself to a lifetime of low-wage labor, convinced that I was 
“not     2     enough” for academic work. For decades, I had tried to avoid any situation that might     
 
 3      
my lack of education, building a small but safe life around that     
 
 4      
 
 .
It was my daughter’s struggle with dyslexia (读写困难) that     5     me to step out of my comfort zone. 
Watching her     
 
 6      
 
  to learn in spite of constant setbacks, I felt ashamed of my own long-held     
 
 7      
 
 . I 
enrolled in a basic English course, and that first day, I sat in the back, my hands     
 
 8      
 
 , certain I’d be found 
out as an“impostor(骗子)”.
Instead, that classroom became a space where I

  decades earlier.

 12

People often ask why I     
 
 13
      
 
  so much stress to go back to school. The answer isn’t just the degree. 
It’s about learning that growth doesn’t have a(n)

 15

 , “Just a minute.” A small woman in her 80s stood there. “Would you 
carry my bag to the

 12

  you?” 
“Nothing,” I hugged her. “You gave an old woman a little moment of     
 
 14
      
 
 ,” she said gratefully. At that

I usually eat an apple on the drive home from work. Normally, I carry the core ( 果核) into the kitchen 
dustbin marked “organics.”
But one day, I     
 
 1      
 
  the core as I climbed out of the car. Guiltily, I kicked it toward the fence,     
 
 2     
myself to pick it up later. Of course. I forgot all about it.
The next morning, I noticed rabbit footprints around the fence. I remembered the apple core and felt a 
moment of     
 
 3      
 
  that some creature had found the treat I’d     
 
 4      
 
  left. I found myself grinning, and the 
happy moment stuck in my mind.
That evening, I did the same thing at the same spot. To my delight, more     
 
 5      
 
  of different animals 
were found. I began to Google them and take     
 
 6      
 
  for the following months in identifying my visitors. I felt 
7      
 
  to a different world that existed all around me.
I didn’t share my new     
 
 8      
 
  with anyone and I knew the complaints from my neighbors about my 
seemingly innocent gifts. I     
 
 9      
 
  all their cautionary voices and enjoyed my     
 
 10
      
 
  every morning 
until one day, the driveway was full of large prints, scattered mud and leaves, which deeply     
 
 11
      
 
  the 
neighbors. I didn’t say a word but     
 
 12
      
 
  leaving my cores and my secret co-existence with wildlife came to 
an end.
This episode was just one innocent     
 
 13
      
 
  to lessen the divide between ourselves and the many 
species with whom we co-exist. It seems that living     
 
 14
      
 
  our feathered and furred friends is a difficult 
challenge. I am     
 
 15
      
 
  that we can figure it out, or at least lessen our impact.

For the longest time, I believed I wasn’t a math person. The very word “math” used to fill me with     
 
 1      
. While others handled formulas (公式) with ease, I struggled a lot. So I     
 
 2      
 
  math whenever possible, 
accepting numbers just weren’t my thing.
Then came junior year with an unexpected change. Due to a course selection     
 
 3      
 
 , I got placed in an 
advanced statistics class. I panicked and considered begging the counselor to     
 
 4      
 
 . But by the time I 
checked, the drop deadline had     
 
 5      
 
 . I had no choice but to stay.
The first few weeks were rough. I felt like learning a new language. However, there was something     
 
 6      
about this class. The teacher didn’t just write formulas. He told stories with data, showing how statistics could    
7      
 
  real-world problems. Then came the     
 
 8      
 
  that made all the difference.
We were asked to collect data and analyze it to answer a     
 
 9      
 
  we were curious about. Half-jokingly, I 
chose: “Does sleep affect test scores?” I surveyed classmates, tracked sleep habits, and created graphs with my 
group members. To my surprise, I enjoyed every part of the     
 
 10
      
 
 . I especially liked finding patterns and 
telling stories with     
 
 11
      
 
 . When I presented my findings, I felt     
 
 12
      
 
  — not just for surviving the 
task, but because something finally made sense.
Since then, I’ve stopped labeling myself so     
 
 13
      
 
 . I’ve learned that I’m more     
 
 14
      
 
  than I 
thought. Sometimes what we fear or avoid holds pieces of who we really are, waiting to be

When I was young, I used to walk in the woods around my home. My Mom

  me several times 
never to travel so far that I would lose sight of the house. Being a(n)     
 
 2      
 
  boy, however, I soon hiked further 
away,     
 
 3      
 
  just how far I could go into the woods without getting lost. After losing my way once for two 
hours, though, I decided to leave a     
 
 4      
 
  the next time I went for a walk.
The next day, I walked into the woods until the house was out of     
 
 5      
 
 . Then I broke a small branch to 
mark my place. I wandered further in and     
 
 6      
 
  another branch and then another. In a few spots where there 
were no branches     
 
 7      
 
  enough, I picked the heads off some flowers. Finally I got tired and decided to    
8

  I had left going on and on. Looking at the branches and flowers I wondered if people were 
disappointed in me and I

  never to do that again.
There is an old saying that goes “We will be

  forever by the tracks we leave.” As I have 
grown older and      
 
 14

  and kindness.

I remember opening my iPad one day in fifth grade, inspired by a lighthearted conversation with my cousin 
about scary stories. Hours later, I had     
 
 1      
 
  my first short story. Writing     
 
 2      
 
  became a beloved 
hobby, but as I grew older, the     
 
 3      
 
  began to fade. I started reading more books, encountering critiques 
online, and comparing my work to others. Self-doubt crept in, and what once felt like a creative outlet became a 
source of     
 
 4      
 
 . I felt I had to be “good” at writing to share it.
This    
 
 5      
 
  happens often. Hobbies start as a form of    6    , a way to relax ourselves. Yet, over 
time, societal pressures to     
 
 7      
 
  can change how we view them. Whether it’s painting, playing an instrument, 
or any other    
 
 8      
 
 , there’s an expectation to perform at a high level. When we don’t meet that standard, the joy 
fades, replaced by feelings of inadequacy.
For me, writing has been the one hobby I’ve regularly returned to,    
 
 9      
 
  moments of self-doubt. I’ve 
taken creative writing classes and seen significant improvement, but the constant    
 
 10
      
 
  for perfection turns 
writing from a     
 
 11
      
 
  into a chore. I’ve come to realize that this mindset    
 
 12
      
 
  me of the joy I once 
found in it.
We need to recognize that it’s     
 
 13
      
 
  not to be great at something. Perfection is often    
 
 14
      
 
 , and 
more often than not, we are our toughest critics. The challenge, then, is finding balance between enjoyment and    
15
      
 
 . Embrace imperfection, and enjoy the process, even if you’re not “great” at it.261

One day, our neighbor called again to invite my daughter Angie over to play. Angie refused, so I had to say a 
fib (小谎) which sounded a little     
 
 1      
 
  than a plain refusal. This small     
 
 2      
 
  forced me to face a long-
held struggle: a ridiculous     
 
 3      
 
  of upsetting anyone, which made it difficult for me to say no.
I remember another time that same year. My sister dropped by     
 
 4      
 
  with her children. For extra 
income, she needed me to babysit while she covered someone else’s     
 
 5      
 
  that evening.
Exhausted by my two younger kids, I could feel the     
 
 6      
 
  aroused inside me. Reluctantly, I agreed on 
a     
 
 7      
 
  basis. I was trying to be     
 
 8      
 
  but was seized with anger.
Aware of my discomfort, my sister asked what was wrong. Before I knew it, the truth     
 
 9      
 
 : she 
always put me on the spot and never asked me     
 
 10
      
 
 ! She looked at me in the eye, arguing it’s my     
 
 11
     
. “If you didn’t want to, you should have said no! You can’t agree to do and then blame me! Blame yourself!”
I was     
 
 12
      
 
  at first, but it was the hard truth. I had to     
 
 13
      
 
  the floor, crying on my knees, to 
realize I needed to change.
I bought a book and took a class about healthy     
 
 14
      
 
 . I’ve learned to keep     
 
 15
      
 
  relationships 
with others and with myself. My “yes” means yes, and “no” means no — that’s where my power and freedom are.

【解析】文章主要讲述了作者因害怕得罪人而难以拒绝他人,最终学会设定健康界限的故事。
1.考查形容词比较级。句意:安吉拒绝了,所以我不得不说了一个小谎,这听起来比直接拒绝更委婉。
A. nicer 更友好的;B. louder 更大声的;C. harder 更难的;D. sharper 更尖锐的。根据上文“One day, our 
neighbor called again to invite my daughter Angie over to play. Angie refused, so I had to say a fib (小谎) which 
sounded a little”和下文“than a plain refusal”可知,撒谎是为了让拒绝听起来不那么生硬,更委婉。
2.考查名词。句意:这件小事迫使我面对一个长期存在的挣扎:一种荒谬的害怕得罪任何人的心理,这
让我很难说“不”。A. incident 事件;B. celebration 庆祝;C. view 观点;D. accident 事故。根据上文
“Angie refused, so I had to say a fib (小谎) which sounded a little ______ than a plain refusal. This small”可知,
前面提到拒绝邻居邀请这件事,这是一件不起眼的小事。
3.考查名词。句意:这件小事迫使我面对一个长期存在的挣扎:一种荒谬的害怕得罪任何人的心理,这
让我很难说“不”。A. promise 承诺;B. belief 信念;C. habit 习惯;D. fear 恐惧,害怕。根据下文“of 
upsetting anyone, which made it difficult for me to say no”可知,很难说不,害怕得罪人。
4.考查副词。句意:我姐姐带着她的孩子意外地到访。A. frequently 频繁地;B. unexpectedly 意外地;C. 
casually 随意地;D. briefly 短暂地。根据下文“For extra income, she needed me to babysit”和“Exhausted by 
my two younger kids, I could feel the ______ aroused inside me”可知,姐姐提出让作者帮忙看孩子的请求,以
及作者当时疲惫的状态,可推测姐姐的来访是突然的,没有提前告知。
5.考查名词。句意:为了赚取额外收入,那天晚上她要替别人上班,需要我帮忙照看孩子。A. shift 班次;
B. package 包裹;C. schedule 日程;D. visit 拜访。根据上文“For extra income, she needed me to babysit 
while she covered someone else’s”可知,姐姐是要替别人完成工作班次,cover one’s shift 表示“替某人上
班”,是固定搭配。
6.考查名词。句意:被两个年幼的孩子弄得筋疲力尽,我能感觉到内心的冲突。A. comfort 安慰;B. 
effort 努力;C. conflict 冲突;D. joy 快乐。根据下文“Exhausted by my two younger kids”可知,作者很累但
又不得不答应姐姐,内心有冲突。
7.考查形容词。句意:我不情愿地答应了定期这么做。A. rare 稀少的,偶尔的;B. optional 可选择的;C. 
sudden 突然的,临时的;D. regular 定期的。结合前文“For extra income, she needed me to babysit while she 
covered someone else’s ____ that evening.”以及“Exhausted by my two younger kids”以及“Reluctantly, I agreed 
on a”以及“which made it difficult for me to say no.”姐姐突然来访、提出请求,为了赚取额外收入,那天晚
上她要替别人上班,所以作者不情愿地答应了定期帮她照顾孩子。
8.考查形容词。句意:我努力表现得愉快,但却充满了愤怒。A. silent 沉默的;B. pleasant 令人愉快的;
C. curious 好奇的;D. worried 担心的。根据下文“but was seized with anger”可知,此处与下文构成转折,
充满了愤怒,作者却努力让自己表现得很愉快。
9.考查动词短语。句意:在我意识到之前,真相脱口而出:她总是让我陷入两难境地,而且从不提前问
我!A. wandered off 走开;B. slipped out 溜出,脱口而出;C. got away 逃脱;D. came about 发生。根据上
文“Aware of my discomfort, my sister asked what was wrong.”和下文“she always put me on the spot and never 
asked me”可知,姐姐察觉到作者的不适,问作者怎么了,作者无意间说出了真相,即:她总是让作者陷入
两难境地,而且从不提前问作者。
10.考查介词短语。句意:在我意识到之前,真相脱口而出:她总是让我陷入两难境地,而且从不提前问
我!A. at last 最后;B. for free 免费;C. in advance 提前;D. right away 立刻。根据下文“she always put me 
on the spot and never asked me”可知,前文姐姐突然来访并提出请求,以及作者的疲惫和矛盾,说明姐姐没
有提前询问作者是否方便。
11.考查名词。句意:她看着我的眼睛,争辩说这是我的错。A. dream 梦想;B. routine 常规;C. fault 错误;
D. opinion 观点。根据下文“If you didn’t want to, you should have said no! You can’t agree to do and then blame

12.考查形容词。句意:一开始我很生气,但这是残酷的事实。A. angry 生气的;B. amazed 惊讶的;C. 
surprised 惊讶的;D. delighted 高兴的。根据下文“If you didn’t want to, you should have said no! You can’t 
agree to do and then blame me! Blame yourself!”可知,姐姐认为这是作者的错,作者一开始听到姐姐的话很
生气。
13.考查动词。句意:我不得不跪倒在地,幡然醒悟,意识到自己需要改变。A. escape 逃跑;B. find 发现;
C. clean 打扫;D. hit 突然意识到。根据下文“the floor, crying on my knees, to realize I needed to change”可知,

14.考查名词。句意:我买了一本书,上了一堂关于健康界限的课。A. debate 辩论;B. lifestyles 生活方式;
C. boundaries 界限;D. appetite 胃口。根据下文“I’ve learned to keep ______ relationships with others and with
