Passage 1
（2025·河北秦皇岛·三模）I quit a boring job that was killing me mentally. But I didn’t 1 a new
job until last week.
In those 8 months of unemployment, I’ve 2 myself. I’ve smiled less. I’ve laughed less. My 3
has supported me completely, which made him exhausted as well. We 4 every day to get by in the same
house. Gradually, the relationship between us was 5 . It’s been heartbreaking to know I saved part of
myself by losing absolutely everything else.
We had the worst 6 of our relationship yesterday. I was broken. I couldn’t be in the house. I
wandered 7 around Manhattan, avoiding going home.
At the end of the day, I sat in Union Square. I saw a man 8 a “free hugs” sign and watched for a
while as people came and 9 , some hugging him with smiles on their faces, some ignoring him 10
. I finished my coffee and decided, “I think I need a hug.”
I 11 and hugged this man. I hugged him hard, and long, and tight. And I didn’t realize how badly
I’d 12 one until I started weeping. And after that 13 , I got on the train home and I spent time
with my partner. And I started to try and 14 everything I’d broken.
Sometimes, a hug makes all the 15 .

Passage 2
（2025·河北衡水·三模）It was an ordinary afternoon. I walked my dog as usual around the block, 1
solutions to the writing class I was to teach that evening. While I was known for the 2 that usually formed
in my classes, this term was a real 3 . I had tried several strategies for bringing the students together, but
failed .
In those days, I was always 4 about something: my teaching, my novels, my family... It didn’t take
much to 5 the “anxiety” tap (水龙头), and once flowing, it could pull most areas of my life into its 6
.
About halfway through the block, I 7 noticed a dried leaf curled (卷曲) elegantly on the road. A
sycamore (美国梧桐) leaf. I'd seen such leaves so frequently, but that afternoon, I stopped to 8 it for the
first time. The leaf looked so beautiful, balanced in its balletic position. When I arrived home, the 9 brought
by staring at the sycamore leaf was still with me. A small moment of 10 beauty sustained my happiness,
making me stop feeling anxious about my class. I realized I might have discovered something 11 !
I was determined to 12 this experience to practice small things for a year. Since I'm a 13
, I decided to record my experiences for my works. That was the beginning: an ordinary day on a 14 walk
that suddenly changed into the door to a new 15 : noticing small moments of beauty.

Passage 4
（2025·江苏南通·三模）Growing up, I would constantly ask my parents what new words meant in English
when I was reading novels in primary school. Regardless of how much I understood, I returned to these books
because reading in itself was 1 .
Of course, looking up every word in a sentence is no fun. So when I was trying to read books in English, I
adopted something similar to a weightlifting 2 : finding my comfort zone, then pushing a bit beyond it,
3 , and trying again. It did suck at the beginning but it wasn’t long before I could 4 more complexity. I
made a goal to 5 material just above my comfortable level; if I felt 6 when I finished, the next
book I chose would be a bit harder. If I got frustrated, I dialled down the 7 .
I embraced practice; the words I could understand were enough to keep me going, even if my 8
wasn’t perfect. Reading turned from self-imposed (自我强加的) “study” to a fun, sustainable 9 . Letting
go of the 10 — embracing the fact that I didn’t understand every word — helped me 11 more
ground, allowing me to see phrases and vocabulary over and over in hundreds of 12 , however imperfect.
And I became 13 in the stories; I grew 14 of the characters and wanted to know what
happened next.
It’s as though an ocean has opened up before me, and for now I’m just wading ( 蹚水) in the shallows —
knowing that I’ll 15 someday.

Passage 5
（2025 浙江省强基联盟高三下学期三模英语试题）
It started like any normal day. My partner, Stewart, helped me out of bed. I 1 on my crutches (拐杖)
as I made my way to the car, slowly and dangerously. All of a sudden, I 2 my footing and fell.
Not for the first time, Stewart was caught between concern and 3 . Wasn’t it time, he asked, for me
to consider using a wheelchair? Once again, I 4 the suggestion.
I was diagnosed with rheumatoid arthritis ( 类风湿性关节炎) in my 20s. Over the following
years, movement and mobility became more and more painful and challenging, but I was 5 to stay on
my feet — to still be a “walking person”. But, slowly, walking unaided became impossible. The morning after my
6 , the truth of what Stewart had been saying 7 me: trying to stay on my feet was disabling me
further. My perspective 8 and I admitted what felt, at the time, like defeat. At 46, I started using the
wheelchair. Suddenly, having been 9 , here I was, a “disabled person”, sitting at the height of most
people’s waists.
However, being more 10 disabled has had other silver linings, too. People are kind. And, I often
feel as if I am seeing the very best of human 11 .
Now, when I look at the wheelchair, I see the imprint of myself on it, how its shape has 12 me,
and mine to it, and I feel greater 13 : it is a part of me now.
Of course, I long to walk, but I am learning to live with my 14 . Using a wheelchair can be
challenging, but it has also proved hugely 15 ; together, it feels as if we are starting a whole new
adventure.

The restaurant has always been the 5 of our lives. At fourteen, I started being a vegetarian (素食

started high school thirty pounds heavier than everyone in my class, Mom and I designed a 7 menu for
La Salle Rouge, and Mom let me 8 tasty, low-calorie desserts, which became popular later. I 9
early on that this was the work I want to do.

（2025 浙江省北斗星盟高三下学期三模）My dad was trying to raise the seven of us by himself. And I

The rest of us saw what happened to him but we were 9 to get strapped (用带子绑住) in to that seat to

Passage 8

（2025·安徽合肥·三模）Throughout elementary school I did everything to achieve my highest self. While
enjoying time with family and friends, I worked hard to shine 1 . When in Grade 5, I lost my grandma. I was
old enough to learn that some lives are cut 2 and there will always come a day everyone has to leave.
3 , I thought I could handle it on my own. To shift my focus from the pain, I joined many groups and
clubs, believing that staying 4 would help me move on. I thought this would help me 5 this hard
time. However, it took me 2 years to realize what I needed wasn’t a(n) 6 , but the time to talk to someone
about my feelings. Writing then became my new 7 , allowing me to express emotions and let things go

Passage 10
（2025·安徽蚌埠·三模）Early mornings in my family’s home had grown quiet. With my parents working
abroad and my brothers studying elsewhere, I often found myself alone, walking through 1 rooms once
filled with life. I had stayed behind to attend medical school despite the economic 2 that had pushed
family and friends to seek opportunities far from home. Yet, for all its challenges, my homeland taught me to find
3 in tough times and pride in my heritage (遗产). That foundation 4 me as I began a new journey:
shifting from clinical medicine to the uncharted 5 of research, a jump that tested my resilience (韧性) in
unexpected ways.
Growing up, I was inspired by our scientists, artists, and poets, as well as the educational system that
6
intellectual pursuits. My parents, a doctor and an engineer, were my role models. My mother completed her medical
training during the most tough times. My father taught me that the
7
of science and taking care of loved
ones were the most important commitments I could make.
8
by their example, and attracted by the
complexity of the human body, I decided to become a physician.
While I was a medical student, the resilience I learned from my parents stood the
9
of the social
chaos and economic crises. Despite all that, I 1
0
focused and completed my degree.
Finally, it was my turn to leave home 1

a brighter future. Then, I went abroad as a postdoc to gain
research experience. It turned out to be much more challenging than I 1

colleagues and advisers provided great 1

learned there will stay with me forever, 1

However, Justin made a(n)

Passage 12
（2025·福建三明·三模）It was a warm afternoon in mid-July at the Jersey shore. With baskets in hands,
my kid Tom and I began picking up shells (贝壳).
After a while, I looked into his basket and saw nothing but 1 shells. “All of these shells are no
good. You need to find shells like this,” I said, as I held up a shell in perfect 2 . Tom looked at me in 3
but went on gathering whatever he found. Later I noticed him drop more broken shells into the basket. Again, I
stopped, but this time I asked in a serious voice, “Why do you 4 filling your basket with broken shells?”
“They are broken, but they are 5 beautiful,” he explained. Just then he dived into the basket and began
6 out the different shells and commenting on their 7 .
“This one has the color purple on it. None of yours have purple on them,” he said with 8 . “And
this one looks like a smile when you 9 it this way.”
“You’re right,” I agreed, realizing he was teaching me a valuable
1 0
. So I placed the few
1 1
shells back on the beach. Then we walked along the beach, collecting only damaged shells and
1 2
their
beauty.
Back home, we proudly

our shells in the garden. They’re a constant

of how none
of us are perfect. We are all imperfect in some way, but we still

Passage 1
（2025·浙江金华·三模）Kitesurfers, riding the wind, appear to escape gravity. 1 to a parasol (牵
引伞) arching 40 feet high, they shift directions, slide along the waves and float through the air, seemingly 2
and birdlike. The sport requires more than 3 nerves. It also needs amazing athletic skills to 4
both the wind and air at the same time — almost like superhuman. And for one man, his 5 is also nearly
superhuman.
Bruno Lobo, a surgeon and a former champion swimmer, has been kitesurfing for 15 years. In 2016 and
2023, he held six Brazilian 6 and won Olympic gold in kitesurfing.
On a 7 day with some gray clouds and strong winds, Lobo went into the ocean near Sao Luis.
“After 8 a few meters, I heard a cry for help and noticed a girl who was drowning,” he explained in a
post on Instagram. “I 9 approached her with the kite, tried to calm her down and asked her to

Passage 3
（2025·福建泉州·三模）From Canada comes the story of a lost artwork, a bargain-bin (廉价品区) treasure
of a lifetime and a connection that grew into a friendship across 1,200 miles.
Having spent 300 hours each 1 two plates of color-phase tiles (变色瓷砖), Nova Scotian artist
Sydney Blum was excited at the chance to 2 her work in a Montreal gallery. She shipped them, but both got

Weeks later, Sonja Krawesky, a teacher, was 5 by two colorful plates when she was looking through
items at a bargain-bin store in Hamilton. Krawesky loved their 6 . She knew these did not 7 there

Passage 4
（2025·江西景德镇·三模）Last summer, I volunteered at a community center in Toronto where Ms.
Thompson ran weekly mental health workshops. Her
1
approach blended personal storytelling with
scientific research, creating a safe space for healing.
One participant, 16-year-old Clara, had suffered from social
2
for years. “I felt like a prisoner in
my own mind,” she admitted. Her turning point came when Ms. Thompson asked everyone to draw their emotions.
Clara’s sketch of a caged bird sparked a
3
discussion about invisible struggles.
“Mental health isn’t about being ‘fixed’,” Ms. Thompson emphasized. “It’ s about learning to
4
with imperfections. ” She introduced mindfulness techniques, comparing anxious thoughts to passing clouds. “You
don’t have to 5
every storm, ” she’d say, “just build a stronger umbrella.”
Research supports this metaphor. A 2023 Johns Hopkins study found that communities adopting
6
coping strategies reduced anxiety-related hospital visits by 34%. Clara gradually implemented these lessons,
replacing self-criticism with
7
emotional support. Her progress wasn’t smooth — some days she’d
8
into old habits — but the group’s consistent support became her anchor.
The program’s success lies in its
9
structure. Morning sessions focused on skill-building; afternoons
allowed
10
reflection through journaling or art. Ms. Thompson cleverly used gardening as therapy —
nurturing plants helped participants
11
patience. “You can’t rush a rosebud,” she’d smile.
Cultural barriers initially caused disagreement. For example, Mr. Davies
12
the “soft” methods
until his daughter persuaded him to try. His eventual participation demonstrated mental health’s universal
13
. By summer’s end, Clara presented a new drawing: the bird rested on an open cage. “It’s still there,” she said, “but
now I know the
14
isn’t locked.”
Ms. Thompson’s final advice stayed with me: “Mental wellness isn’t a destination. It’s the
15
we
maintain through life’s seasons. ”

wanted to do something 1 for his neighbors during the COVID-19 lockdown. So he posted to an online

after kids had grown up or adults had 5 their bikes to new models.
6 , in his tidy little backyard shelter, he got to work. Space was 7 , so Vera preferred to work
alone. Vera fixed the donated bikes and moved them with great efforts to parks, food banks and churches. He
camped out with his Free Bikes sign and waited for people to 8 . Then he talked with those interested and
9 them up with the perfect bikes. His first giveaway saw six bikes go in under 30 minutes.
Now neighbors know Vera as the Bike Dude, and they keep him busy with a steady

of bikes,
helmets and locks to redistribute. He is

Last year, Darren suffered a massive heart attack in the middle of the night, which is often 1 .
Remarkably, it was Bear, the family dog, who 2 the danger and took 3 to save Darren’s life.
Darren’s wife, Janice, was awoken by Bear one night, who had come upstairs to 4 her. She
followed Bear downstairs, 5 but concerned, only to find Darren 6 on the floor. “I cried, ‘Oh
my God!’” Janice recalled.
As Janice called 911, doctors quickly arrived and 7 Darren to the hospital, where he was 8
to have experienced one of the most severe forms of heart attack. He later had a 9 surgery, which
ultimately saved his life.
Amazingly, Darren’s recovery may not have been possible if Bear hadn’t stepped in. His jumping on
Darren’s chest was a

chest and Janice was calling 911,” Darren said. He

chest, which doctors believed provided just enough

service dogs, Bear seemed to know something was wrong. “But he wasn’t even trained to do it. He just did it. He
saved me.” Darren
