I want to tell everyone about two teachers on Changyu Island, Wang Kaiquan and Lin Zhujin.

Few people know about this hometown of     1    (I). The island is beautiful, but it’s quite isolated, and there aren’t many modern     2    (convenience). In bad weather, even our water and power supplies     3    (be) unstable. People who have never been to our island are often     4    (surprise) by this and find it hard     5    (adjust). Many     6    live on the island dream of leaving.

These two primary school teachers, however,     7    (stay) on for 23 long years! They are     8    only teachers here, and they plan to stay for as long as there are children who need to attend school.

2 . Growing up, I understood one thing about my dad: He knew everything. I asked him questions and he gave me _________. When I moved out on my own, I usually called him when something broke and I needed to know how to _________ it.

But then, eventually, I _________ him less. I got married, and my husband had the _________ I was short of. I didn’t know when it happened, but our _________ when I called developed into six words. Me: “Hi, Dad.” Him: “Hi, sweetie. Here’s Mom.” There would be a(n) _________ if my mum wasn’t at home. I _________ loved my dad, but I wondered at times if maybe he had already _________ everything I needed to know.

Then, this past summer, my dad said that he once spent a summer in college building boats. “You did?” I asked. I thought I knew everything about my dad. However, I never knew this. I _________ that in the past 40 years, I had focused on myself only. I felt a deep sense of __________.

A few weeks later, I called my parents. Dad answered. “Hi, sweetie. Here’s Mom.,” he said.

__________ to know more about him, I said, “Wait, Dad. How are you?” We __________ talking about a new battery he’d bought for his boat.

3 . Ways to Show Gratitude (感激)

COVID-19 has a way of making people feel like their world was turned upside down overnight. They struggle with feeling frightened and feeling like everyone is overreacting (反应过度).     1    

Give thanks for everyday things

    2     In fact, being grateful for something as small as a fresh cup of coffee, a sunny day, or a perfect parking spot can give you a better mood and train your brain to see the good rather than the bad.

    3    

One way to make gratitude a regular part of your day is to make it a habit to think of three things you are thankful for each day. It doesn’t really matter whether you perform this exercise first thing in the morning or just before you go to bed. The important thing is that you’re taking time and reflecting on what you are grateful for.

Keep track of everything you’re grateful for

Using a phone app like Gratitude Plus, you can record the things you’re grateful for. Another option is to use social media or even post-it notes to express your gratitude.     4     This way, when you’re feeling down, you can reflect on the things that previously (以前) brought a smile to your face.

Reflect on past negative experiences

Look back on the worst moments in your life.     5     Consider not only what you suffered, but also what you learned through the experiences. When you find the positive in negative experiences, you have turned them into something positive that does you good in the end.

A．Make gratitude a daily habit.

B．Stick to expressing gratitude in public.

C．Then, compare those with where you are now.

D．Gratitude doesn’t have to be over the top or something significant.

E．You can hardly stay strong while recalling the moments that ever happened.

F．But learning to practice gratitude every day can bring some changes to your life.

G．The key is to use a method to help you remember the things you are grateful for.

7 . 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。

My mom told me the story when I asked her about my hand. “The room was quiet, and you were quiet. I was waiting for you to cry. I asked if you were OK, but they were hesitant, the doctor and nurses. They said you were missing a hand." My mom told this to me with such complex（复杂的）feelings. My disability came as a surprise to my parents, but they took me home and treated me as any other child.

They knew I was an active child and took part in sports, music and everything a typical child would. They never let anything hold me back. That was their goal. However hard, they would help me. And with many kind people's help, I was able to receive prosthetics（义肢） that cost $1,000, at no cost.

Middle and high school brought about different challenges. Just like most girls, I struggled hard with self-respect for how I looked. I was not like other girls, and I was aware of that clearly. I lost my confidence as I questioned whether anyone would ever love me. Luckily, my worry was unnecessary.

My confidence was still shaking in my 20's as I became a mother. I had years to prepare everything, but I was also worried about the coming baby. Worse still, I felt my son would dislike me.

However, that all changed with one moment. It all happened when my son was around 6 years old. "She was born like that!" He responded loudly, standing protectively in front of me as I bent down to answer his little classmates' question.

It was a moment that lives on forever in my memory. My son freed me of questioning myself if I was a good enough mom for him. I was, I had always been. He knew it before I did. The pride in his voice showed me that I was just me.

注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
My son made me confident and I started sharing my story.

8 . Express Yourself

If you do think you've been bottling up your emotions, here are some tips for connecting with your feelings.

Let go of shame.     1     It means you're a human being experiencing feelings. Being able to express those emotions in healthy ways, like shedding tears, is OK.

Explore your reactions in the moment. Facing a challenging situation can bring up difficult emotions or thoughts that you might not want or feel able to deal with.     2     Wherever possible, try to be with and face your reactions as they come up.

Make room for emotions. Not everyone is comfortable crying in public and that's OK. Make sure you find a safe place where you can work through your feelings in whatever ways to feel right and safe.     3    

Find what works for you. Of course, crying isn't the only way to express how you feel.     4     Remember it's completely normal to have a whole range of reactions and that even the difficult ones are a natural part of life.

    5     If you find it difficult to connect to your emotions, you could try listening to a sentimental piece of music or watching a tearjerker movie to help unlock them. But remember that what feels normal for one person might not feel the same as another, so if the tears don't roll, don't worry.

If you experience long periods when you can't stop crying, or feel you can't connect with your feelings, try to talk to a guardian, or another trusted adult—maybe an auntie or uncle. You could also ask to speak to a school counselor or nurse. If that feels too much, visit youngminds.org.uk.

A．Get in the mood.

B．Adjust your mood.

C．Crying doesn't mean that you are weak.

D．Ignoring or pushing them away, however, can become a habit.

E．Crying sometimes can be the best way to deal with your pressure.

F．You could go to your room or to a quiet place in nature, or perhaps go to places with good memories.

G．You could try finding words to describe your emotions and talk to someone you trust, or you could express how you feel through drawing.
