26、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 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 wrote those books. The kindness 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.

28、I can’t remember when my dog finally stopped crying in fear at its top voice. For months after we took her home from a nearby rescue organization, Millie cried all the time. If you only walked past her, a sound would erupt that could freeze your blood.

When we adopted Millie in August of 2019 she was mentally hurt to a serious degree. Obviously, she was afraid of everything around her. A gentle touch from a little kid or the friendly smell of a small dog could make this full-grown dog frightened to death. The lights of a car would send her into great fear. Many sights and sounds terrified Millie so much that once she even couldn’t go to sleep in 36 hours.

But recently we’ve come to realize that we might have turned Millie into a naughty(淘气的) kid. Early on, trying to make her believe that the world contains good things, my husband started saving her the last mouth of his bread. This dog who had to be tricked (哄骗)into eating now knows exactly when the clock strikes five and then she follows me around and reaches his paws to me until I feed her. This dog who feared all strangers now greets guests with a kind of enthusiasm that not all guests actually welcome.

People who haven’t seen her for a while all say that, “This is not the same dog I met last time.” But she is the same dog. She has just become a happier, braver dog. Even now, Millie is not yet the dog she is in the process of becoming. But the warmth of the world has turned her into a better self.

A．To take a suggestion.

B．To show a particular attitude.

A．People forget what Millie looked like.

B．Millie’s personality has changed a lot.

C．The author is raising another dog.

D．Millie has become the best dog as expected.

【4】How does the writer develop the passage?

A．By giving reasons.

B．By explaining meanings.

C．By listing figures.

D．By showing contrast.

29、One day recently, Laurie Fenby was shopping at a garage sale in Rochester New York and as she was leaving, she found a wallet on the ground.

Laurie looked inside and found a Jamaican (牙买加人的) driver’s license, some American cash and some Jamaican cash. She tried all the usual ways to find the man, whose name was George. She couldn’t find him through Google or Facebook and then she asked for suggestions through Next door, a community website. Laurie received a lot of ideas and responses-some of them were not so positive. But one lady advised her to contact a little store that is known to have many Jamaican migrant workers as clients. Laurie called the store and found that yes, indeed, there was someone named George who lost his wallet.

Laurie suggested that the store owner contact George and have him call her. When George contacted her he was able to identify everything in the wallet and Laurie was able to return it. But it didn’t stop there. Laurie asked George, “What do you and the migrant workers need?” He said they need some warm clothes. Laurie immediately contacted the community and was able to organize a clothing drive. She received lots of coats, jackets, shoes and other supplies. Recently Laurie met George and the other migrant workers in Rochester, and she joined them to pick apples together.

They were so thankful to Laurie and her friends-and none of this community building or friendship would have happened if the wallet had stayed in George’s pocket.
