As we talked and I finished dressing his wound, I asked if his wife would be angry if he was a bit 58 . He replied that she no longer 59 him, and that she hadn't known him for five years. I was 60 and asked, "And you still go every morning, even though she doesn't know who you are " He smiled and replied, "She may not know me, but I still know who she is."

Dear Mr: White,
To be honest, I hated you when I first met you. I hated it when you made me stand up straight. I hated the way you made me wear my uniform right. What I hated most was that you wouldn't accept my work if it wasn't my best. But you showed me who I could be and what I could do.
We had lots of arguments. Sometimes I even shouted at you, but you never lost your temper（发脾气）. You were always patient with me.
I still remember that you shared your regrets and your successes with us when you were our age. Not only did you teach me English, but you also showed me that I could achieve more than what I or anyone else thought I could. When I was in college, it was your words that made me realize that if I wanted to reach the top, it was only on my own.
When I look back, that time is very important for my growth. If I hadn't had you as-my teacher in the seventh grade, my life would be different.
Thank you, my dear teacher!
Sincerely,
Nick

The Sol Reader, weighing only around 100g, is an e-book reader. But different from Kindle, it's like a pair of sunglasses! It wants to provide people with a more comfortable reading experience by making it hands-free. The pages of the e-book are projected against a dark background on the glasses. But sorry, you cannot turn the pages with your eyes or the power of your mind. You need to use a remote controller（遥控器）. So it's not totally hands-free. Using AR glasses and a smartphone, deaf and people with hearing loss are also able to join in everyday conversations. The G-Wonder has a microphone that receives the sound from the environment and sends it to a connected smartphone. The phone then creates subtitles（字幕）from that sound. By special software, these subtitles then appear on the users' glasses screen. Real-time subtitles made the pair of glasses become part of the conversations as never before.
Do you want a pair of high-tech glasses Want glasses that can help you find your way or give you helpful information Try Conan. The glasses are from Google, a US company. They look like any other glasses, but in fact, they are computers. There are many buttons on the arms of the glasses. Users can find the latest information from the glasses.
71. Where could we read the passage

C. www.
72. Lisa lost her way. Which glasses will she choose

③A microphone in the glasses gets the sound, and sends it to the phone.
A. ③②① B. ①③② C. ③①②
74. What can we infer from the passages above
A. Sol Reader will be popular because people can turn pages with eyes.

What is science fiction A dictionary may tell you it's fiction 1 on future or new scientific discoveries. Many sci-fi stories deal with space travel or life on other planets. Chinese sci-fi writer Hai Ya. however, has taken a very different way. Many of his writings 2 to Chinese culture and history. One of them is The Space-Time Painter. The novel 3 has won the Hugo Award, the world's top science fiction prize.
Hai Ya got the idea for The Space-Time Painter after learning about One Thousand Li of Rivers and Mountains. Wang Ximeng, a 4 Song-dynasty painter, created it at the age of 18. The man died young and 5 is known about him. This “gap”（空白）in history gives Hai Ya the space and freedom to create a novel.
The main character in The Space-Time Painter is Zhao Ximeng. His life experience is modeled（仿照） on that of Wang. After many hard times, Zhao's mind leaves his body and enters a 6 space. There, he meets Zhou Ning. The modern-day police officer is trying to solve a case about an ancient painting. Hai Ya didn't just create the story out of his 7 . He carefully studied historical facts and tried his best 8 Chinese culture with science fiction.
In order to finish The Space-Time Painter, Hai Ya explored（探索）not only a "gap" in history but also "gaps" in his 9 life. As we congratulate Hai Ya on his big success, we can all take a moment to think about what "gaps" we can explore. Are you interested in history Is there a "gap" that few others 10 a finger on so far Try to make good use of it. Maybe it will be your chance to bring home a big prize, too.

As summer gives way to autumn, many of us want warmth and sunlight. It is common for some of us to feel down when the days get shorter. 1
While autumn sadness is a common seasonal feeling we have as there is less sunlight, for some people, it takes on a more serious form known as seasonal affective disorder（情绪失调）, or SAD. 2 People who have SAD typically oversleep, overeat, and lose interest in activities they once enjoyed. Generally, almost all people who have SAD feel sad and helpless.
3 Johns Hopkins University suggests that if people get less natural light during the autumn and winter months, their body's hormones（荷尔蒙）will be influenced.
4 Light therapy（光疗法）is a common and useful treatment. Patients are advised to let under sunlight or man-made light that copies natural sunlight. Light therapy can help regulate patients' hormones and get their lives back on track. 5 For example, you can keep a regular sleep schedule, take part in regular physical activity, and have a balanced diet.
It's worth noting that, in most cases, SAD begins in young adulthood. So, while learning in books and classes, don't forget to enjoy the sunlight outdoors and get energy from nature!
A. People call this autumn sadness. B. Dealing with SAD often requires medical help. C. But it's not an easy job to find out what causes SAD. D. Besides, living a healthier life, can help manage SAD. E. SAD mostly starts in late autumn or early winter and goes away in spring and summer. F. The cause of SAD is not yet totally understood, but many have been influenced by its development.

Creative ideas are bringing nature into city areas all around the world. Here are some cities that have found ways to let the plants in, which is good for their populations and the environment.
Liverpool
A living wall is how the city of Liverpool has made room for nature in its busy city center. Without planting space, it turned the concrete（混凝土的）surface of the St. John's Shopping Center into a 65-meter living wall. It is perfectly located to help take in some of the pollution produced by the nearby bus station.
In 2021, two beehives（蜂箱）were put on the rooftop of the shopping center, each housing 20,000 bees. The bees don't just pollinate（授粉）on the living wall. They are active within a five-kilometer-wide circle around their hives, helping the environment of the wider community.
Singapore
Singapore plans to be "a city of nature.” In February 2021, the city announced（宣告）its "Green Plan 2030." It's a program to make the city as environmentally friendly as possible. Singapore already has over 400 parks and 4 nature protected areas. It has also promised to plant a million trees across the country and further increase parkland by S0 percent. The hope is that by 2030, no family will be more than a ten-minute walk from a green space.
New York City
The High Line on the West side of Manhattan is a two-kilometer long public park. It is built along the remains of a railway line. The railway line closed in the early 1980s. It faced being pulled down before people wanted to put the place to good use. In 2003, people decided to make it an above-street level garden. It is now a city greenway with over 150, 000 flowers and trees.
The projects from all over the world show just how possible it is to include nature into city. Some of the projects are big, while others have a far more localized influence-but all are inspirational ways to give the whole planet a helping hand.

（三）A possible version:
Hi! I’m happy here to share our experience in making a video of retold English stories of China. At first, we made a plan together. We had a discussion and chose Hanfu as our topic.
Then, my partners and I surfed the Internet to collect some information. Next, we wrote the story by ourselves. At last, we made a video with the help of our parents. With our hard work, the video was finally completed.
Through this experience, we learned a lot. We feel proud of our Chinese culture. Besides, we learned the importance of team work. We can’t be successful without each other’s help.
