When a group of college students put their sorrows into action, they never imagined the project would fuel a nationwide movement to help deal with hunger and control on food waste.
But that’s exactly what the Farmlink Project has done since 2020, bringing together hundreds of young volunteers to rescue nearly 77 million pounds of excess food and deliver it to those in need. The organization’s efforts help farmers, the environment, and people struggling to feed their families all at once.
“In the United States, 40 million Americans don’t have enough food to eat. They don’t know where their next meal is going to come from,” said Aidan Reilly, who co-founded Farmlink. “Meanwhile, in the United States, we’re throwing out over 100 billion pounds of food every year.”
Back in 2020, Reilly and his childhood friend James Kanoff were reading and watching news about food shortages, and they learned that area farms were forced to destroy excess produce that they couldn’t sell, especially with restaurants, schools and hotels closed. Reilly, Kanoff and a core group of friends worked together over Zoom, texted and e-mailed to contact farms coast to coast. “We didn’t really set out to start a nonprofit,” Reilly said. “We just thought, ‘There’re so many people suffering, if we can figure out one way to help, then that’ll be great.”
In California, they found a farmer who had 13, 000 eggs that could be donated, and Reilly offered to do the pickup and delivery himself. That was the first of many more deliveries. With “we’ll come to you” as their catchphrase (标语), the group rented U-Haul trucks and attempted to do all the food pickup and deliveries themselves.
“We had a lot of small problems in the beginning,” Reilly said. “We broke axles (车轴), loaded in 40, 000 pounds of potatoes in a wrong way and had to try to drag them out by using another truck and a rope. But we made it work.”
“Farmlink has worked with more than 100 farms and 300 communities in the US, rescuing and moving enough food to distribute more than 64 million meals,” Reilly said.
4. What can we learn about Farmlink Project from the text
A. It was launched by some college students. B. It helps relieve American poverty.
C. It cooperated with the farms worldwide. D. It is supported by the government.
5. Why did some farms waste the produce left
A. The produce was of poor quality.
B. Nobody came to purchase the produce.
C. The farmers refused to sell it at a low price.
D Food shortages were no longer a problem globally.
6. What difficulty did the students encounter in the start-up phase
A They were lacking in experience. B. They overloaded the supply.
C. Their navigation aids didn’t work. D. The vehicles were inadequate.
7. What is the text mainly about
A. Americans faced a food shortage crisis.
B. Farmers in poor areas worried about food waste.
C. Volunteers delivered farm produce to those in need.
D. Students took action to tackle hunger and food waste.
C
Tariq Qaiser, an architect, is trying to protect mangroves (红树林). The trees could save Pakistan’s largest city Karachi, sitting on the Arabian Sea, from natural disaster. He comes to Bundal Island several times a week to document the illegal cutting of mangrove trees. Very often, “You can’t hear a single bird because the chain saws are so loud. The trees are cut down illegally for firewood,” he says, shaking his head. Besides, developers clear the mangroves to make room for construction.
Karachi has a hot climate, and its concrete buildings and paved roads make it even hotter. Offshore, there are islands where mangroves grow. They could be the key to slowing climate change. Mangrove forests pull carbon dioxide out of the air, holding four times as much of the planet-warming gas as other forests can. They support diverse ecosystems. As sea levels rise with global warming, the trees could play a big role in protecting coastal cities like Karachi from flooding. Karachi’s mangroves are disappearing. But its numbers are rising in other parts of Pakistan. With replanting efforts, the country has tripled (三倍于) its mangrove coverage over the past 30 years.
Qaiser’s work may have worked. Recently, a court in Karachi declared Bundal Island’s mangroves to be protected forests. But unforested parts of the island remain unprotected, and developers want to build there. City officials say this could provide much-needed housing and bring in billions of dollars. They claim that some of that money could be used to plant mangroves in other parts of Pakistan.
Ecologist Rafiul Haq appreciates Qaiser’s “extraordinary work” educating the public about mangroves. But he wishes Qaiser would look at the bigger picture. “Only 7% of Pakistan’s mangroves are in Karachi,” Haq says. He thinks it’s wrong to focus on the losses in 7% of the country while ignoring the success in 93% of it. But Qaiser believes it’s important to protect every bit.
8. What do we know about Karachi’s mangroves
A They occupy the building land. B. They’re home to various birds.
C. They’re primarily being used as firewood. D. They protect the city from climate catastrophe.
9. Why are efforts made to conserve the mangrove trees
A. Their birthplaces meet crisis. B. They boast huge diversity.
C. Their bonds with nature are close. D. They grow at a rapid speed.
10. What does the Karachi government plan to do
A. Grow mangroves in other areas. B. Destroy buildings to grow mangroves.
C. Build more mangrove reserves. D. Use mangroves to make profit.
11. What does Haq think of Qaiser’s work on Karachi’s mangroves
A. Challenging. B. Effective. C. Insignificant. D. Partial.
D
It’s well-known that humor can benefit us both physically and mentally. The idea that laughter is the best medicine has been around since ancient times. In his 1905 book, Jokes and Their Relation to the Unconscious, Sigmund Freud argued that humor is the highest of the psyche’s defense mechanism (机制), capable of turning anxiety into pleasure.
There are four humor styles. Affiliative humor refers to jokes about things that might be commonly considered funny, which is usually employed to improve relationships or make others laugh. If you’ve ever shared a funny picture with a coworker, you’ve used affiliative humor. Self-enhancing humor involves being able to laugh at yourself, often used as a way for you to deal with stress or difficulties and feel better as a result. Aggressive humor is laughing at the expense of others, which often involves sarcasm (讽刺), teasing, and criticism. Self-defeating humor is the art of putting yourself down to gain favor from your peers, which is possibly used by someone who’s targeted by bullies.
Each style of humor actually carries a different influence, when it comes to mental health. Julie Aitken Schermer, a psychological researcher at The University of Western Ontario, says people using self-enhancing humor are less likely to show signs of loneliness and poor relationships with others. By contrast, both aggressive and self-defeating humor styles can hint at trouble. “We find that self-defeating humor is the most concerning style as it is also linked with loneliness and feelings of not mattering. Those with an aggressive humor style may not experience loneliness as much, however, since they rely on group dynamics (群体动力) in order to make fun of their peers,” says Schermer.
Even if you tend to favor more negative humor styles, there’s no reason to lose heart. Schermer says people can develop a positive, self-enhancing humor style by concentrating on the lighter and more humorous aspects of life. As author Kurt Vonnegut once wrote, “Laughter and tears are both responses to worries and anxieties. I prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward.”
12. Why is Sigmund Freud’s book mentioned in Paragraph 1
A. To show the importance of mental health. B. To stress the role of humor.
C. To persuade people to stay positive. D. To introduce ancient jokes to us.
13. According to the text, which kind of humor may you use to relieve pressure
A. Affiliative humor. B. Self-enhancing humor.
C. Aggressive humor. D. Self-defeating humor.
14. What does the underlined phrase “hint at” probably mean in the third paragraph
A. Signal. B. Explain. C. Prevent. D. Solve.
15. Which of the following will Kurt Vonnegut probably agree with
A. Humor is difficult to control. B. Crying is a good way of relief.
C. Humor is a double-edged sword. D. Laughter is the best cure for stress.

When I was little, I lived in a house with a beautiful garden full of all kinds of flowers, and roses were the most beautiful of them. There was nothing I enjoyed more than sitting in the garden with my mother as she read stories to me. When I was in primary school and old enough to read, I enjoyed reading stories aloud to her.
I will never forget one day when I was in the third grade. I had been picked to be the princess in the school play, and for weeks my mother had rehearsed my lines so hard with me. But no matter how easily I acted at home, as soon as I stepped onstage, every word disappeared from my head. Finally, my teacher took me aside. She explained that she had written a narrator’s part to the play, and asked me to change roles. Her word, kindly expressed, still hurt, especially when I saw my part go to another girl.
I didn’t tell my mother what had happened when I went home after school that day. But she sensed my pain. Instead of suggesting we practice my lines, she asked if I wanted to take a walk in the garden.
It was May and roses were blossoming and, under the trees, we could also see yellow dandelions in the grass, as if a painter had painted our garden with red, yellow and green. I watched my mother casually bend down by one dandelion. “I think I’m going to dig up all these weeds,” she said, pulling it up by its roots. “From now on, we’ll have only roses in this garden.”
“But I like dandelions,” I protested. “All flowers are beautiful — even dandelions.”
My mother looked at me seriously. “Yes, every flower is beautiful in its own way, isn’t it ” She asked thoughtfully. I nodded, pleased that I had won her over. “And that is true of people too,” she added. “Not everyone can be a princess, but there is no shame in that.” Relieved that she had guessed my pain, I started to cry as I told her what had happened. She listened and smiled reassuringly.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答
“But you will be a beautiful narrator,” she said,

When a group of college students put their sorrows into action, they never imagined the project would fuel a nationwide movement to help deal with hunger and control on food waste.
But that’s exactly what the Farmlink Project has done since 2020, bringing together hundreds of young volunteers to rescue nearly 77 million pounds of excess food and deliver it to those in need. The organization’s efforts help farmers, the environment, and people struggling to feed their families all at once.
“In the United States, 40 million Americans don’t have enough food to eat. They don’t know where their next meal is going to come from,” said Aidan Reilly, who co-founded Farmlink. “Meanwhile, in the United States, we’re throwing out over 100 billion pounds of food every year.”
Back in 2020, Reilly and his childhood friend James Kanoff were reading and watching news about food shortages, and they learned that area farms were forced to destroy excess produce that they couldn’t sell, especially with restaurants, schools and hotels closed. Reilly, Kanoff and a core group of friends worked together over Zoom, texted and e-mailed to contact farms coast to coast. “We didn’t really set out to start a nonprofit,” Reilly said. “We just thought, ‘There’re so many people suffering, if we can figure out one way to help, then that’ll be great.”
In California, they found a farmer who had 13, 000 eggs that could be donated, and Reilly offered to do the pickup and delivery himself. That was the first of many more deliveries. With “we’ll come to you” as their catchphrase (标语), the group rented U-Haul trucks and attempted to do all the food pickup and deliveries themselves.
“We had a lot of small problems in the beginning,” Reilly said. “We broke axles (车轴), loaded in 40, 000 pounds of potatoes in a wrong way and had to try to drag them out by using another truck and a rope. But we made it work.”
“Farmlink has worked with more than 100 farms and 300 communities in the US, rescuing and moving enough food to distribute more than 64 million meals,” Reilly said.
4. What can we learn about Farmlink Project from the text
A. It was launched by some college students. B. It helps relieve American poverty.
C. It cooperated with the farms worldwide. D. It is supported by the government.
5. Why did some farms waste the produce left
A. The produce was of poor quality.
B. Nobody came to purchase the produce.
C. The farmers refused to sell it at a low price.
D. Food shortages were no longer a problem globally.
6. What difficulty did the students encounter in the start-up phase
A They were lacking in experience. B. They overloaded the supply.
C. Their navigation aids didn’t work. D. The vehicles were inadequate.
7. What is the text mainly about
A. Americans faced a food shortage crisis.
B. Farmers in poor areas worried about food waste.
C. Volunteers delivered farm produce to those in need.
D. Students took action to tackle hunger and food waste.
【答案】4. A 5. B 6. A 7. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲一群美国大学生将悲伤付诸行动,推动一场全国性的运动,帮助解决饥饿和控制食物浪费的故事。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“When a group of college students put their sorrows into action, they never imagined the project would fuel a nationwide movement to help deal with hunger and control on food waste. (当一群大学生将他们的悲伤付诸行动时,他们从未想到这个项目会推动一场全国性的运动,帮助解决饥饿问题和控制食物浪费)”可知,这个项目是由一些大学生发起的。故选A。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第四段“Back in 2020, Reilly and his childhood friend James Kanoff were reading and watching news about food shortages, and they learned that area farms were forced to destroy excess produce that they couldn’t sell, especially with restaurants, schools and hotels closed. (早在2020 年,赖利和他儿时的朋友詹姆斯·卡诺夫在阅读有关粮食短缺的新闻时就了解到,该地区的农场被迫销毁卖不出去的多余农产品,尤其是在餐馆、学校和酒店关闭的情况下)”可知,造成农民食物浪费的原因是没有人来购买这些剩余的农产品。故选B。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据第六段““We had a lot of small problems in the beginning,” Reilly said. “We broke axles (车轴), loaded in 40, 000 pounds of potatoes in a wrong way and had to try to drag them out by using another truck and a rope. But we made it work.”(“一开始我们遇到了很多小问题,”赖利说。“我们弄坏了车轴,用错误的方式装了4万磅土豆,不得不用另一辆卡车和一根绳子把它们拖出来。但我们成功了。”)”可知,“缺乏经验”(而导致犯错)是他们最大的困难。故选A。

Tariq Qaiser, an architect, is trying to protect mangroves (红树林). The trees could save Pakistan’s largest city Karachi, sitting on the Arabian Sea, from natural disaster. He comes to Bundal Island several times a week to document the illegal cutting of mangrove trees. Very often, “You can’t hear a single bird because the chain saws are so loud. The trees are cut down illegally for firewood,” he says, shaking his head. Besides, developers clear the mangroves to make room for construction.
Karachi has a hot climate, and its concrete buildings and paved roads make it even hotter. Offshore, there are islands where mangroves grow. They could be the key to slowing climate change. Mangrove forests pull carbon dioxide out of the air, holding four times as much of the planet-warming gas as other forests can. They support diverse ecosystems. As sea levels rise with global warming, the trees could play a big role in protecting coastal cities like Karachi from flooding. Karachi’s mangroves are disappearing. But its numbers are rising in other parts of Pakistan. With replanting efforts, the country has tripled (三倍于) its mangrove coverage over the past 30 years.
Qaiser’s work may have worked. Recently, a court in Karachi declared Bundal Island’s mangroves to be protected forests. But unforested parts of the island remain unprotected, and developers want to build there. City officials say this could provide much-needed housing and bring in billions of dollars. They claim that some of that money could be used to plant mangroves in other parts of Pakistan.
Ecologist Rafiul Haq appreciates Qaiser’s “extraordinary work” educating the public about mangroves. But he wishes Qaiser would look at the bigger picture. “Only 7% of Pakistan’s mangroves are in Karachi,” Haq says. He thinks it’s wrong to focus on the losses in 7% of the country while ignoring the success in 93% of it. But Qaiser believes it’s important to protect every bit.
8. What do we know about Karachi’s mangroves
A. They occupy the building land. B. They’re home to various birds.
C. They’re primarily being used as firewood. D. They protect the city from climate catastrophe.
9. Why are efforts made to conserve the mangrove trees
A. Their birthplaces meet crisis. B. They boast huge diversity.
C. Their bonds with nature are close. D. They grow at a rapid speed.
10. What does the Karachi government plan to do
A. Grow mangroves in other areas. B. Destroy buildings to grow mangroves.
C. Build more mangrove reserves. D. Use mangroves to make profit.
11. What does Haq think of Qaiser’s work on Karachi’s mangroves
A. Challenging. B. Effective. C. Insignificant. D. Partial.
【答案】8. D 9. C 10. A 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章介绍了对巴基斯坦最大城市卡拉奇红树林的保护措施。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“The trees could save Pakistan’s largest city Karachi, sitting on the Arabian Sea, from natural disaster. (这些树木可以使位于阿拉伯海的巴基斯坦最大城市卡拉奇免遭自然灾害。)”可知,它们保护城市免受气候灾难。故选D。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“Offshore, there are islands where mangroves grow. They could be the key to slowing climate change. Mangrove forests pull carbon dioxide out of the air, holding four times as much of the planet-warming gas as other forests can. They support diverse ecosystems. As sea levels rise with global warming, the trees could play a big role in protecting coastal cities like Karachi from flooding. (在近海,有红树林生长的岛屿。它们可能是减缓气候变化的关键。红树林从空气中吸收二氧化碳,其吸收的温室气体是其他森林的四倍。它们支持不同的生态系统。随着全球变暖导致海平面上升,这些树木可以在保护卡拉奇等沿海城市免受洪水侵袭方面发挥重要作用。)”由此判断,红树林科院减缓气候变化,且能吸收很多的二氧化碳,在很多方面保护着城市,故保护红树林是因为它们与自然的紧密联系。故选C。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段最后两句“City officials say this could provide much-needed housing and bring in billions of dollars. They claim that some of that money could be used to plant mangroves in other parts of Pakistan. (市政府官员表示,这可以提供急需的住房,并带来数十亿美元的收入。他们声称,其中一些钱可以用来在巴基斯坦其他地区种植红树林。)”可知,政府官员会在其他的地方种植红树林。故选A。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段““Only 7% of Pakistan’s mangroves are in Karachi,” Haq says. He thinks it’s wrong to focus on the losses in 7% of the country while ignoring the success in 93% of it. But Qaiser believes it’s important to protect every bit. (Haq说:“巴基斯坦只有7%的红树林在卡拉奇。”他认为关注全国7%的损失而忽视93%的成功是错误的。但是Qaiser认为保护每一处都很重要。)”可知,Haq认为不能只关注到失败的而不关注成功的方面,但Qaiser认为就算是再小的区域都要兼顾到,因此Haq认为Qaiser对于卡拉奇红树林工作成果的想法的认识是片面的,不全面的。故选D。
D
It’s well-known that humor can benefit us both physically and mentally. The idea that laughter is the best medicine has been around since ancient times. In his 1905 book, Jokes and Their Relation to the Unconscious, Sigmund Freud argued that humor is the highest of the psyche’s defense mechanism (机制), capable of turning anxiety into pleasure.
There are four humor styles. Affiliative humor refers to jokes about things that might be commonly considered funny, which is usually employed to improve relationships or make others laugh. If you’ve ever shared a funny picture with a coworker, you’ve used affiliative humor. Self-enhancing humor involves being able to laugh at yourself, often used as a way for you to deal with stress or difficulties and feel better as a result. Aggressive humor is laughing at the expense of others, which often involves sarcasm (讽刺), teasing, and criticism. Self-defeating humor is the art of putting yourself down to gain favor from your peers, which is possibly used by someone who’s targeted by bullies.
Each style of humor actually carries a different influence, when it comes to mental health. Julie Aitken Schermer, a psychological researcher at The University of Western Ontario, says people using self-enhancing humor are less likely to show signs of loneliness and poor relationships with others. By contrast, both aggressive and self-defeating humor styles can hint at trouble. “We find that self-defeating humor is the most concerning style as it is also linked with loneliness and feelings of not mattering. Those with an aggressive humor style may not experience loneliness as much, however, since they rely on group dynamics (群体动力) in order to make fun of their peers,” says Schermer.
Even if you tend to favor more negative humor styles, there’s no reason to lose heart. Schermer says people can develop a positive, self-enhancing humor style by concentrating on the lighter and more humorous aspects of life. As author Kurt Vonnegut once wrote, “Laughter and tears are both responses to worries and anxieties. I prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward.”
12. Why is Sigmund Freud’s book mentioned in Paragraph 1
A. To show the importance of mental health. B. To stress the role of humor.
C. To persuade people to stay positive. D. To introduce ancient jokes to us.
13. According to the text, which kind of humor may you use to relieve pressure
A. Affiliative humor. B. Self-enhancing humor.
C. Aggressive humor. D. Self-defeating humor.
14. What does the underlined phrase “hint at” probably mean in the third paragraph
A. Signal. B. Explain. C. Prevent. D. Solve.
15. Which of the following will Kurt Vonnegut probably agree with
A. Humor is difficult to control. B. Crying is a good way of relief.
C. Humor is a double-edged sword. D. Laughter is the best cure for stress.
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. A 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章通过一本书——Jokes and Their Relation to the Unconscious,介绍了四种不同的幽默类型。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段“It’s well-known that humor can benefit us both physically and mentally. The idea that laughter is the best medicine has been around since ancient times. In his 1905 book, Jokes and Their Relation to the Unconscious, Sigmund Freud argued that humor is the highest of the psyche’s defense mechanism (机制), capable of turning anxiety into pleasure.(众所周知,幽默对我们的身心都有好处。笑是最好的良药这一观点自古以来就存在。西格蒙德·弗洛伊德在他1905年出版的《笑话及其与无意识的关系》一书中认为,幽默是心灵的最高防御机制,能够将焦虑转化为快乐)”可知,第一段提到这本书是为了强调幽默的作用。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Self-enhancing humor involves being able to laugh at yourself, often used as a way for you to deal with stress or difficulties and feel better as a result.(自我提升的幽默包括能够自嘲,通常是你处理压力或困难的一种方式,结果感觉更好)”可知,用于缓解压力的是自我提升式幽默,故选B。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线词上文“Julie Aitken Schermer, a psychological researcher at The University of Western Ontario, says people using self-enhancing humor are less likely to show signs of loneliness and poor relationships with others.(西安大略大学的心理学研究员Julie Aitken Schermer说,使用自我提升式幽默的人不太可能表现出孤独和与他人关系不佳的迹象)”以及“By contrast, both aggressive and self-defeating humor styles”可知,使用自我提升式幽默的人不太可能表现出孤独和与他人关系不好的迹象。相比之下,攻击性和自我挫败的幽默风格都可能暗示出麻烦,故划线词意思是“暗示”。故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“Laughter and tears are both responses to worries and anxieties. I prefer to laugh, since there is less cleaning up to do afterward.(笑和哭都是对担心和焦虑的反应。我更喜欢笑,因为笑完之后要做的清理工作少了)”可知,Kurt Vonnegut更喜欢笑,可得出他可能同意“笑是治疗压力的最好方法”这一观点。故选D。

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When I was little, I lived in a house with a beautiful garden full of all kinds of flowers, and roses were the most beautiful of them. There was nothing I enjoyed more than sitting in the garden with my mother as she read stories to me. When I was in primary school and old enough to read, I enjoyed reading stories aloud to her.
I will never forget one day when I was in the third grade. I had been picked to be the princess in the school play, and for weeks my mother had rehearsed my lines so hard with me. But no matter how easily I acted at home, as soon as I stepped onstage, every word disappeared from my head. Finally, my teacher took me aside. She explained that she had written a narrator’s part to the play, and asked me to change roles. Her word, kindly expressed, still hurt, especially when I saw my part go to another girl.
I didn’t tell my mother what had happened when I went home after school that day. But she sensed my pain. Instead of suggesting we practice my lines, she asked if I wanted to take a walk in the garden.
It was May and roses were blossoming and, under the trees, we could also see yellow dandelions in the grass, as if a painter had painted our garden with red, yellow and green. I watched my mother casually bend down by one dandelion. “I think I’m going to dig up all these weeds,” she said, pulling it up by its roots. “From now on, we’ll have only roses in this garden.”
“But I like dandelions,” I protested. “All flowers are beautiful — even dandelions.”
My mother looked at me seriously. “Yes, every flower is beautiful in its own way, isn’t it ” She asked thoughtfully. I nodded, pleased that I had won her over. “And that is true of people too,” she added. “Not everyone can be a princess, but there is no shame in that.” Relieved that she had guessed my pain, I started to cry as I told her what had happened. She listened and smiled reassuringly.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150左右;
2.请按如下格式作答
“But you will be a beautiful narrator” she said,
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
After the play, I took home the flower.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
“But you will be a beautiful narrator,” she said, reminding me how much I loved to read stories aloud to her. “The narrator’s part is just as important as the part of a princess.” Her wise words inspired me with courage and confidence. But on the evening of the performance, I suddenly felt nervous backstage again. My teacher came over to me. “Your mother asked me to give you this,” she said, handing me a dandelion. Looking at it, I knew my mother was out there for me, which calmed me down.
After the play, I took home the flower. My mother made it into a dried flower and put it into a glass bottle. Every time I see it, I am reminded of this unforgettable experience. I have taken part in many school plays, tried different roles and made many speeches ever since. Gradually, I’ve become really good at performing and public speaking, seldom feeling nervous onstage now. For this, I am forever grateful to my mother, who have made me what I am today.
