The older I get, the more I understand how my teachers have transformed my life.
On a recent Sunday afternoon, I went to see Mr. C at Roxbury Park in Beverly Hills. His love of life has not dimmed despite the fact that his legs no longer work like they used to. He visited some of his former students while he was in town. At Beverly Hills High School, Mr. C taught ancient history, coached football and golf, and risked his life teaching driver’s training on Saturday mornings from 1964 to 1988. The gray and hobbled students lined up one after another to thank their favorite teacher. One called him a rock star. Another was grateful for helping him when he couldn’t say so. It was a beautiful tribute, especially in these times of catastrophic teacher shortages.
Spending that Sunday in the park with Mr. C was nothing short of magic. It was a reminder of all that is promising and possible in public education, including a teacher whose rare emotional honesty could be appreciated and honored decades later. It also brought to mind Maya Angelou’s saying “People will forget what you said and did, but never forget how you make them feel.” He made me and others in the park feel heard and seen.
Mr. C changed my perception of myself. Rather than seeing myself as a loser cheerleader who couldn’t compete with the smart kids, I realized how much I loved learning. His history class was so interesting. In his classes about the Persians, Greeks, and Romans, extra credits can be earned for creativity. During earthquake drills, we counted on Mr. C to scream his head off in mock terror.
It should come as little surprise that I’d value the role of teachers in my life. Both of my parents taught; so did my siblings, aunts, uncles and cousins. I, too, have become a teacher and I try to follow in Mr. C’s footsteps. Some days, I fantasize what it would be like to go on a teacher tour, reaching out to my mentors to express my deep gratitude for all they’ve given me. Seeing Mr. C sparked that fantasy again. When I finally worked up my courage to thank him, knowing a floodgate of tears would open, he said to me with his typical modesty: “You were doing me more good than I was doing you.”
4. What does the underlined word “tribute” mean in Paragraph 2
A. enthusiasm B. admiration C. devotion D. commitment
5. Why does the author mention Maya Angelou’s saying
A. To make a suggestion.
B. To introduce a celebrity.
C. To show respect to an educator.
D. To interpret the influence of education.
6. What does the author think of her job as a teacher
A. Enjoyable. B. Intolerant. C. Incompetent. D. Patient.
7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. A reunion. B. A rock star. C. A surprise. D. A great teacher.

Not only does the use of plastic water bottles hurt your wallet, it also increases pollution and wastes energy and water. Only 23% of all plastic in America ends up in a recycling bin, meaning over $ 1 billion worth of plastic is treated as rubbish a year. Recently, Skipping Rocks Lab has invented a kind of water bottle called Ooho.
It is a convenient, clear water bottle that can either be drunken or eaten. To drink it, you can either peel off the membrane(薄膜) or tear a hole in the membrane with your teeth to pour the water into your mouth. To eat it, you simply put the whole bottle in your mouth. One problem the scientists have run into is how to ship large amounts of Ooho bubbles(水泡) without arriving with a very wet truck. However, they have attempted to package units of individual bubbles together inside a larger and thicker membrane. It is targeting large outdoor events, such as marathons, music festivals, and sporting events, where tons of plastic bottles are used, and frequently left behind as litter. And too much plastic is sure to do harm to the environment, which could account for their purpose of such a new invention.
The team has been working for the past two years to develop the technology and materials needed to produce Ooho; they have recently applied a patent for their new advancements. The price for an individual bubble or a unit of bubbles has not been set yet, but they cost about two cents to create a unit, which is cheaper than plastic bottles. It has appeared at events in London, San Francisco, Boston, at conferences, festivals, and so on.
Ooho is catching many people’s attention and has raised over $ 1 million and gained 1,000 investors in only three days. It is mostly being sold at events at the moment to keep the consumer’s interest while the production machine is getting up and running. It is quickly making a rise,so keep an eye out this year for these bottles of the future.
8. How is most plastic dealt with in America
A. It’s sold. B. It’s recycled.
C. It’s buried. D. It’s wasted.
9. Why did the team invent Ooho
A. To make a profit for a company. B. To protect the environtnent.
C. To make people eat as they drink. D. To reduce the cost of plastic bottle.
10. What can we infer about Ooho from the text
A. It is easy and safe to ship it in large amounts.
B. It has become popular since it began to be sold.
C It might be sold at a lower price than plastic bottles.
D. It cost the team a lot of money to develop the technology.
11. What does the author really want to say in the last paragraph
A. Ooho is to be a success in the future.
B. Ooho is being supported by smart people.
C. Ooho is taking the place of plastic bottles now.
D. Ooho is being produced to attract more investors.
D
GPS has completely transformed how we get around. But other animals have long had their navigation (领航) systems built right in.
“We know their eyes are quite sensitive to polarized (偏振的) light and the sky has a particular pattern of polarized light relative to the position of the sun,” Barbara Webb, a researcher at the University of Edinburgh, says.
You can see polarized light firsthand if you take a pair of polarized sunglasses and spin them against the sky-the light passing through the glasses changes. Webb says the insects have polarization like that built into their many eyes. “You can think of it as having lots of sunglasses pointing in different directions.”
But Webb was curious whether there’s really enough information in the sky to give insects an accurate sense of direction. So her team built a sensor (传感器) modeled after a desert ant eye and put it under artificial light meant to simulate the sky. They then put that sensor into a model meant to model the brains of desert ants and other insects. And they found that with the insects’ sensing and processing equipment, they can likely sense direction down to just a couple degrees of error.
A system based on that of insects could someday be a cheap low-energy choice to GPS. Insects have very tiny brains. A brain the size of a pinhead that’s using hardly any energy. And yet they’re still able to navigate better than we can with GPS, which is surprising. Webb is now working on building a robot that can use light to get its directions.
12. What can we learn from the text
A. GPS is not accurate enough.
B. Insects have better eyes than humans.
C. Light changes passing through polarized sunglasses.
D. Insects have tiny brains that use no energy.
13. What does the underlined word “simulate” in paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Pretend. B. Cover.
C. Block. D. See.
14. What did Webb’s research find
A. Insects can’t find their ways during nights.
B. Insects can find directions with little mistakes.
C. Insects always make mistakes finding directions.
D. Insects have sensing and processing equipment in their eyes.
15. Which of the following can best describe insects’ navigation ability
A. Disappointing. B. Interesting.
C. Amazing. D. Confusing.

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。
It was an Art lesson. Rachel sat at the desk watching her classmates busy preparing the water jars and paints. She understood why Mrs. Weston asked her to sit down and got Lisa to fetch everything for her. It was always a disaster when Rachel tried to do Art!
Rachel sighed and reached out to dip her brush in some black paint and—oh, no! She knocked over the jar. The water spread across the desk and drowned the paper. Lisa called Mrs. Weston to see what Rachel had done. Rachel went red in the face. She jumped to her feet to get a cloth. Her chair fell over backwards. She turned round and her paintbrush caught Lisa across the face, giving her a black moustache. Lisa was so surprised that she fell back against a wire bookstand. It came crashing down and the books went all over the floor.
How clumsy (笨拙的)! Rachel thought as she went home on the bus. The bus stopped outside her house. She jumped up and her elbow (肘部) knocked a woman’s hat right over her eyes. Oh, no! Rachel said sorry, got off and ran indoors. Mum wasn’t in the kitchen but lay in bed as she caught an awful cold. Rachel offered to make a cup of tea but Mum would rather wait for Dad. Rachel sighed. She understood Mum was afraid she would spill (溅出) it.
“But would you go to Mrs. Willow for some cold cure ” asked Mum. Rachel turned to the door at once. “But Rachel, Mrs. Willow’s house is full of beautiful things, so if she asks you to come in, you’d better say no.” Rachel sighed and ran out.
Mrs. Willow was an old lady with white hair and sharp blue eyes living in an old house. She opened the door and invited her in. Rachel said why she came and that she preferred to wait outside remembering her mother’s warning. Mrs. Willow insisted Rachel come inside. Rachel took a deep breath and stepped in. She looked round Mrs. Willow’s sitting room and saw at once why Mum had been worried.

The older I get, the more I understand how my teachers have transformed my life.
On a recent Sunday afternoon, I went to see Mr. C at Roxbury Park in Beverly Hills. His love of life has not dimmed despite the fact that his legs no longer work like they used to. He visited some of his former students while he was in town. At Beverly Hills High School, Mr. C taught ancient history, coached football and golf, and risked his life teaching driver’s training on Saturday mornings from 1964 to 1988. The gray and hobbled students lined up one after another to thank their favorite teacher. One called him a rock star. Another was grateful for helping him when he couldn’t say so. It was a beautiful tribute, especially in these times of catastrophic teacher shortages.
Spending that Sunday in the park with Mr. C was nothing short of magic.

It also brought to mind Maya Angelou’s saying “People will forget what you said and did, but never forget how you make them feel.” He made me and others in the park feel heard and seen.
Mr. C changed my perception of myself. Rather than seeing myself as a loser cheerleader who couldn’t compete with the smart kids, I realized how much I loved learning. His history class was so interesting. In his classes about the Persians, Greeks, and Romans, extra credits can be earned for creativity. During earthquake drills, we counted on Mr. C to scream his head off in mock terror.
It should come as little surprise that I’d value the role of teachers in my life. Both of my parents taught; so did my siblings, aunts, uncles and cousins. I, too, have become a teacher and I try to follow in Mr. C’s footsteps. Some days, I fantasize what it would be like to go on a teacher tour, reaching out to my mentors to express my deep gratitude for all they’ve given me. Seeing Mr. C sparked that fantasy again. When I finally worked up my courage to thank him, knowing a floodgate of tears would open, he said to me with his typical modesty: “You were doing me more good than I was doing you.”
4. What does the underlined word “tribute” mean in Paragraph 2
A. enthusiasm B. admiration C. devotion D. commitment
5. Why does the author mention Maya Angelou’s saying
A. To make a suggestion.
B. To introduce a celebrity.
C. To show respect to an educator.
D. To interpret the influence of education.
6. What does the author think of her job as a teacher
A. Enjoyable. B. Intolerant. C. Incompetent. D. Patient.
7. Which of the following is a suitable title for the text
A. A reunion. B. A rock star. C. A surprise. D. A great teacher.
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. A 7. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。讲述了作者的老师C先生对自己影响。
【4题详解】
词句猜测题。根据前文“The gray and hobbled students lined up one after another to thank their favorite teacher. One called him a rock star. Another was grateful for helping him when he couldn’t say so.(头发灰白、步履蹒跚的学生们一个接一个地排队感谢他们最喜欢的老师。有人称他为摇滚明星。另一个人很感激在他不能说的时候帮助了他)”可知,此处是在说C先生的学生们对他的感激,可推知tribute是“敬意”之意,和B项admiration意思相近。故选B项。
【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“It also brought to mind Maya Angelou’s saying “People will forget what you said and did, but never forget how you make them feel.” He made me and others in the park feel heard and seen.(这也让人想起了玛雅·安杰洛的一句话:“人们会忘记你说过的话和做过的事,但永远不会忘记你给他们的感觉。”他让我和公园里的其他人感觉自己被听见了,被看见了)”以及第四段中“Mr. C changed my perception of myself. Rather than seeing myself as a loser cheerleader who couldn’t compete with the smart kids, I realized how much I loved learning.(C先生改变了我对自己的看法。我没有把自己看作一个无法与聪明的孩子竞争的失败者拉拉队员,而是意识到我是多么热爱学习)”可知,作者提到Maya Angelou的话是为了解释教育的影响。故选D项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“It should come as little surprise that I’d value the role of teachers in my life. Both of my parents taught; so did my siblings, aunts, uncles and cousins. I, too, have become a teacher and I try to follow in Mr. C’s footsteps.(我很重视老师在我生命中的作用,这不足为奇。我的父母都是教师;我的兄弟姐妹、阿姨、叔叔和表兄妹也是。我也成为了一名教师,我试图追随C先生的脚步)”可知,作者很喜欢自己的老师工作,推知是愉快的。故选A项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意。根据第一段“The older I get, the more I understand how my teachers have transformed my life.(随着年龄的增长,我越来越明白我的老师们是如何改变了我的生活)”和下文可知,本文主要讲述了作者的老师C先生对他学生的影响,所以D项“A great teacher.(一个伟大的老师)”是本文最好的标题。故选D项。

However, they have attempted to package units of individual bubbles together inside a larger and thicker membrane. It is targeting large outdoor events, such as marathons, music festivals, and sporting events, where tons of plastic bottles are used, and frequently left behind as litter. And too much plastic is sure to do harm to the environment, which could account for their purpose of such a new invention.
The team has been working for the past two years to develop the technology and materials needed to produce Ooho; they have recently applied a patent for their new advancements. The price for an individual bubble or a unit of bubbles has not been set yet, but they cost about two cents to create a unit, which is cheaper than plastic bottles. It has appeared at events in London, San Francisco, Boston, at conferences, festivals, and so on.
Ooho is catching many people’s attention and has raised over $ 1 million and gained 1,000 investors in only three days. It is mostly being sold at events at the moment to keep the consumer’s interest while the production machine is getting up and running. It is quickly making a rise,so keep an eye out this year for these bottles of the future.
8. How is most plastic dealt with in America
A. It’s sold. B. It’s recycled.
C. It’s buried. D. It’s wasted.
9. Why did the team invent Ooho
A. To make a profit for a company. B. To protect the environtnent.
C. To make people eat as they drink. D. To reduce the cost of plastic bottle.
10. What can we infer about Ooho from the text
A. It is easy and safe to ship it in large amounts.
B. It has become popular since it began to be sold.
C. It might be sold at a lower price than plastic bottles.
D. It cost the team a lot of money to develop the technology.
11. What does the author really want to say in the last paragraph
A. Ooho is to be a success in the future.

GPS has completely transformed how we get around. But other animals have long had their navigation (领航) systems built right in.
“We know their eyes are quite sensitive to polarized (偏振的) light and the sky has a particular pattern of polarized light relative to the position of the sun,” Barbara Webb, a researcher at the University of Edinburgh, says.
You can see polarized light firsthand if you take a pair of polarized sunglasses and spin them against the sky-the light passing through the glasses changes. Webb says the insects have polarization like that built into their many eyes. “You can think of it as having lots of sunglasses pointing in different directions.”
But Webb was curious whether there’s really enough information in the sky to give insects an accurate sense of direction. So her team built a sensor (传感器) modeled after a desert ant eye and put it under artificial light meant to simulate the sky. They then put that sensor into a model meant to model the brains of desert ants and other insects. And they found that with the insects’ sensing and processing equipment, they can likely sense direction down to just a couple degrees of error.
A system based on that of insects could someday be a cheap, low-energy choice to GPS. Insects have very tiny brains. A brain the size of a pinhead that’s using hardly any energy. And yet they’re still able to navigate better than we can with GPS, which is surprising. Webb is now working on building a robot that can use light to get its directions.
12. What can we learn from the text
A. GPS is not accurate enough.
B. Insects have better eyes than humans.
C. Light changes passing through polarized sunglasses.
D. Insects have tiny brains that use no energy.
13. What does the underlined word “simulate” in paragraph 4 probably mean
A. Pretend. B. Cover.
C. Block. D. See.
14. What did Webb’s research find
A. Insects can’t find their ways during nights.
B. Insects can find directions with little mistakes.
C. Insects always make mistakes finding directions.
D. Insects have sensing and processing equipment in their eyes.
15. Which of the following can best describe insects’ navigation ability
A. Disappointing. B. Interesting.
C. Amazing. D. Confusing.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. B 15. C
【解析】
【分析】本文是说明文。文章告诉我们,研究发现昆虫拥有与生俱来的导航能力。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第三段“You can see polarized light firsthand if you take a pair of polarized sunglasses and spin them against the sky-the light passing through the glasses changes.”可知当把一副偏振光太阳镜放在太阳底下旋转的时候,你就能亲眼看到偏振光了。光穿过偏振玻璃的时候会发生改变。选项C意为“光线在穿过偏振玻璃的时候会发生改变。”符合文意。故选C项。
【13题详解】
词义猜测题。文章第四段“So her team built a sensor (传感器) modeled after a desert ant eye and put it under artificial light meant to simulate the sky. ”可知,她的团队模拟沙漠蚂蚁的眼睛制作了传感器,然后把它放到人造光下。人造光是来模拟天空的。本段Webb在模拟天空和沙漠蚂蚁的大脑来研究天空是如何给予昆虫方向感的。本段一直出现的词是model即模拟。可推断这里把人造光源当做天空。A项意为“假装”,符合文意。故选A项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第四段“And they found that with the insects’ sensing and processing equipment, they can likely sense direction down to just a couple degrees of error.”可知他们发现昆虫通过自己的感知和处理设备,可以很好的识别方向且误差还比较小。B项意为“昆虫可以找到方向且很少有误差。”符合文意。故选B项。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。由文章最后一段“And yet they’re still able to navigate better than we can with GPS, which is surprising.”可知昆虫的导航能力比我们用GPS的导航能力还要好,这一点让人很惊奇。文章对动物的导航能力是感到惊叹的。C项符合文意。故选C项。

Some people say house dust is mostly human skin cells, but it’s only a little bit true. ____16____, but there are many other components(成分)on top of your ceiling fans. These include paint, hair, building materials, bacteria, viruses, insect body parts, etc.
That list is based on the Canadian House Dust Study, in which researchers collected dust samples from 1,025 Canadian homes. The proportions(比例)of the components vary from household to household. A house near a busy road, for example, is likely to harbor a high level of outdoor pollutants from car exhaust(废气). ____17____.
The commonly-cited statement that 70% to 80% of house dust is human skin cells is likely not true for most houses. ____18____, and 40%came from dirt and other materials from outside. That indoor 60%included everything from organic fibers to building materials, not just dead skin cells.
People do drop lots of skin cells as they go about their business. ____19____. Not all dead skin flakes(剥落)off onto your home’s floors. Many run down the drain(下水道)in the shower, and others are contained by clothing and end up being washed out in the washing machine.
____20____. One study found that higher levels of cholesterol and squalene (oils found in dead skin) in dust were associated with lower levels of ozone(臭氧)indoors. Ozone is a pollutant that can cause lung discomfort. Ozone reacts with these oils, thus reducing indoor ozone by between 2% and 15%.
A. But our body needs all kinds of nutrients
B. Skin cells are part of the makeup(组成)of house dust
C. The skin helps people maintain the right internal temperature
D. A newly-built house might have much dust from construction
E. The average adult loses about 500 million skin cells each day
F. It may not be a bad thing to have some dead skin in your home
G. According to a study of house dust, 60% of the components of the dust were from inside
【答案】16. B 17. D 18. G 19. E 20. F
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了室内灰尘的主要组成部分,其中人体皮肤是其中之一,并详细介绍了人体皮肤细胞。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Some people say house dust is mostly human skin cells, but it’s only a little bit true.(有人说,室内灰尘主要是人体皮肤细胞,但这只对了一点点)”以及下文“but there are many other components(成分)on top of your ceiling fans.(但在吊扇上还有许多其他成分)”可知,此空设于段中,起承上启下的作用,根据下文“but there are many other components(成分)on top of your ceiling fans.(但在吊扇上还有许多其他成分)”因此,此处表示“皮肤细胞是室内灰尘的组成部分”,选项B“Skin cells are part of the makeup(组成)of house dust(皮肤细胞是室内灰尘的组成部分)”符合语意,故选B。
【17题详解】
根据上文“A house near a busy road, for example, is likely to harbor a high level of outdoor pollutants from car exhaust(废气).(例如,靠近繁忙道路的房子很可能含有大量来自汽车尾气废气)”可知,此句在举例说明室内灰尘的由来,即路边房子的灰尘来自汽车尾气,因此下一句会进一步举例说明另一种室内灰尘的由来,选项D “A newly-built house might have much dust from construction(新建的房子在施工过程中可能会有很多灰尘)”解释了室内灰尘也有可能来自新建的房屋,符合语意,故选D。
【18题详解】
根据下文“and 40%came from dirt and other materials from outside.(40%来自室外的灰尘和其他物质)”可知,本句在陈述一项研究的结果,即40%来自室外的灰尘和其他物质,并通过and构成并列关系,因此设空处为引出该项研究其他的数据结果—来自室内的灰尘。选项G“According to a study of house dust, 60% of the components of the dust were from inside(根据一项对室内灰尘的研究,60%的灰尘成分来自室内)”符合语意,故选G。
【19题详解】
根据上一句“People do drop lots of skin cells as they go about their business.(人们在忙自己的事情时确实会掉很多皮肤细胞)”可知,本句为段落主旨,因此设空句为进一步解释这一观点,选项E“The average adult loses about 500 million skin cells each day(成年人平均每天会失去大约5亿个皮肤细胞)”进一步说明了成年人人体细胞的脱落。符合语意,故选E。
【20题详解】
根据下文“One study found that higher levels of cholesterol and squalene (oils found in dead skin) in dust were associated with lower levels of ozone(臭氧)indoors. Ozone is a pollutant that can cause lung discomfort. Ozone reacts with these oils, thus reducing indoor ozone by between 2% and 15%.(一项研究发现,灰尘中胆固醇和角鲨烯(死皮中发现的油脂)含量较高,室内臭氧水平较低(臭氧)。臭氧是一种会引起肺部不适的污染物。臭氧与这些油发生反应,从而使室内臭氧减少2%至15%)”可知,本段在具体描述室内灰尘中的部分死皮能有效的降低室臭氧含量,即本段主要描述室内灰尘中的死皮益处。选项F“It may not be a bad thing to have some dead skin in your home(家里有些死皮也许不是件坏事)”符合语意,故选F。

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。
It was an Art lesson. Rachel sat at the desk watching her classmates busy preparing the water jars and paints. She understood why Mrs. Weston asked her to sit down and got Lisa to fetch everything for her. It was always a disaster when Rachel tried to do Art!
Rachel sighed and reached out to dip her brush in some black paint and—oh, no! She knocked over the jar. The water spread across the desk and drowned the paper. Lisa called Mrs. Weston to see what Rachel had done. Rachel went red in the face. She jumped to her feet to get a cloth. Her chair fell over backwards. She turned round and her paintbrush caught Lisa across the face, giving her a black moustache. Lisa was so surprised that she fell back against a wire bookstand. It came crashing down and the books went all over the floor.
How clumsy (笨拙的)! Rachel thought as she went home on the bus. The bus stopped outside her house. She jumped up and her elbow (肘部) knocked a woman’s hat right over her eyes. Oh, no! Rachel said sorry, got off and ran indoors. Mum wasn’t in the kitchen but lay in bed as she caught an awful cold. Rachel offered to make a cup of tea but Mum would rather wait for Dad. Rachel sighed. She understood Mum was afraid she would spill (溅出) it.
“But would you go to Mrs. Willow for some cold cure ” asked Mum. Rachel turned to the door at once. “But Rachel, Mrs. Willow’s house is full of beautiful things, so if she asks you to come in, you’d better say no.” Rachel sighed and ran out.
Mrs. Willow was an old lady with white hair and sharp blue eyes living in an old house. She opened the door and invited her in. Rachel said why she came and that she preferred to wait outside remembering her mother’s warning. Mrs. Willow insisted Rachel come inside. Rachel took a deep breath and stepped in. She looked round Mrs. Willow’s sitting room and saw at once why Mum had been worried.

【答案】Possible Version One:
There were beautiful things everywhere—pretty china figures and delicate vases. Rachel stood very still, afraid of knocking something over. Mrs. Willow handed Rachel a small brown bottle. Rachel couldn’t wait to get away, feeling any minute there would be a disaster. She thanked her and turned to the door when something brushed against her leg. Rachel was so surprised that she jumped backwards. It was a cat! But her elbow hit a vase and it fell to the floor, broken. How awkward!
With a smile Mrs. Willow comforted her saying it had been broken before. Rachel sighed and stared at her. “I did, when I was young. You couldn’t have been as clumsy as I was,” Mrs. Willow said, her sharp blue eyes shining. “Keep telling yourself you are a swan and it will work.” Rachel doubtfully said that several times. After they cleared up the vase, they drank tea from china cups and ate cakes off delicate plates and Rachel didn’t break another thing. It was a kind of magic. Rachel smiled.
Possible Version Two:
There were beautiful things everywhere—pretty china figures and delicate vases. All the treasures seemed to boast a long history and thus priceless. “Wow, it is really a land of wonder.” Rachel couldn’t help admiring the elegance of the china figures and vases. Mom’s words echoing(重复) in her mind, curiosity still got the upper hand(占上风). She reached for one of them, but unfortunately, the vase slipped off her hand and lay in pieces on the floor. Her heart missing a beat, she felt terribly worried.
With a smile Mrs. Willow comforted her saying it had been broken before. Rachel sighed and stared at her. “No worry at all. It’ll be perfect after being mended,” Mrs. Willow said, her sharp blue eyes shining. “Nobody grows up without being clumsy.” Rachel let out a long sigh and for the first time she felt good about her clumsy self. She believed what Mrs. Willow said must have the same magic as her special cold cure. To her amazement, she returned home with the bottle of medicine safe and sound.
