21、A flash of light, then an explosion — BAM! I sit upright up out of a sound sleep. I’m not thinking clearly, but I know I’m on a mountaintop, in a fire tower, in the middle of the night and a lightning storm in progress and it seems there is a fire outside the house. With my headlamp on, I step out into the night storm to put the fire out...

That was in mid-August, 2018.

There are thousands of such fire spotters like me across the US national parks. Some of them are paid, and some are volunteers. My fire tower in Montana’s Glacier National Park was built in 1934.

Everything about the towers are designed to look out. My tiny home has 19 large windows and one windowed door. All the furniture sits no higher than two feet, so none of the windows are blocked.

Even in bad fire years, there’s a rhythm to the days. I usually wake up to early morning light, make a steamy cup of coffee on my stove and drink it outside on a chair, while listening to the birds and insects. Without a doubt, this is my favorite part of the day.

After the drink, I use my powerful telescope to scan miles of the edges where mountains meet the sky in case something wrong has escaped my eyes. At 10 am, I report to the Forest Service Center in Kalispell the weather at my location.

My official working day ends at 4:30 pm. It means I’m free to take a walk before I return to my tower to enjoy the beautiful sunset! This is a long-drawn-out process with breath-taking color and light changes. If I don’t think it’s a show worth watching, I should probably find another job.

Despite living in such a quiet house with killer views, fire spotters’ life is definitely not for everyone. The first summer that I was hired in the 1970s, I was the third fire spotter of the season—the first two decided in a matter of days that it wasn’t what they imagined, or perhaps they never imagined how the loneliness would affect them.

【1】What is the main purpose of the first paragraph?

A．To describe fire spotters’ dangerous work.

B．To report an accident in mid-August, 2018.

D．All of them have broad and unblocked views.

A．The beautiful scenery.

B．The high income.

C．The short working hours.

A．Fire spotters’ life is very exciting.

B．Fire spotters have to get used to loneliness.

C．Applicants understand fire spotters’ job well.

D．Applicants have to ignore the effects of loneliness.

22、When I was 12 years old, I already knew that my teen years were going to be the worst years of my life. I was a total outsider, bullied(欺凌) at school. I felt completely alone in my small town.

But by starting to do volunteer work when I was 14, I turned my problem into a passion for helping others. The opportunity to practice kindness made me feel like my life had a greater purpose. The more positive energy I shared, the more kindness and appreciation I received. I realized that my purpose in life would be to reach out to people, specifically teenagers, and help them feel less alone.

Books were my true friends back then. I was so thankful that the authors who wrote those books. The kindness that they offered me with their books saved my life. One of my biggest dreams was to become an author, so I could write books that would help other teenagers the way those books helped me.

After surviving terrible experiences at school and at home, I made a choice to take the optimistic, positive road in the next steps of my journey. My dream career, one I thought was only possible for the authors I loved, is what I am doing now. I have been a full-time author of teen novels since 2007 and am grateful for this amazing opportunity to reach out to readers every single day.

Kindness saved me when I needed help the most. Even small acts of kindness can change someone’s life. You never know what someone else is going through. But by practicing daily kindness, you become an architect of positive change.

24、Li Ziqi, a short video blogger specializing in traditional Chinese cooking and handicrafts, has gained worldwide popularity.

Li has about 20 million followers on Sina Weibo, and 7 million followers on overseas social media networks. Many foreigners say they have got to know traditional Chinese food culture through her short videos.

It is the spirit of craftsmanship behind her works that makes Li's videos loved by many people at home and abroad. Li seems to be a master of all kinds of skills—farming, cooking, painting and designing. In her short videos, Li always wears homemade hanfu. She strictly follows the real traditional steps in making traditional Chinese food and handicrafts, such as peach flower wine and silk, and tries her best to ensure her videos are accurate. Sometimes she spends almost half a year producing one of her videos.

Li has been inheriting traditional Chinese culture in a rather creative way. She raises ducks in order to make a sauce from salted duck eggs. She makes bamboo tables and chairs all by herself.

It is that unique attraction that makes her works so attractive. Thanks to Li's efforts, many cultural heritages that only existed in memories and written records now appear before our eyes.

Through her short videos, Li presents the image of a beautiful and friendly China. People overseas are showing more interest in traditional Chinese culture with the growth of the Chinese economy.
