Johannes Fritz, a biologist, needed to come up with a plan, again, if he was going to prevent his rare and beloved birds from going extinct.
To survive the European winter, the northern bald ibis (朱鹭)- -which had once disappeared entirely from the wild on the continent-needs to migrate south for the winter, over the Alps, before the mountains become impassable. But shifting climate patterns have delayed when the birds begin to migrate, and they are now reaching the mountains too late to make it over the peaks, locking them in an icy death trap. Determined to save them, Mr. Fritz decided he would teach the birds a new, safer migration route by guiding them himself in a tiny aircraft. And he was confident he could succeed in this daring, unconventional plan because he had done it before.
Mr. Fritz was his young pupils’ sole provider of food, love and cuddles since they’d been just a few days old, and the ibises eagerly followed their teacher. He learned to fly, modifying an ultralight aircraft so it would cruise at speeds slow enough for his winged students to keep up. In 2014, three years after some initially bumpy experiments, Mr. Fritz led the first flock from Austria to Italy, and has since led 15 such migrations. Over that time, he has rewilded 277 young ibises, many of which then started to pass the route on to their own young. For now, however, the main worry is getting the birds to follow the aircraft. “While they have a strong bond with their ‘mothers’ and follow them around on the ground, flying is more difficult, ” Fritz said.
“Fly Away Home was a huge hit with us biologists, ”Mr. Fritz said, recalling the 1996 movie in which characters lead the migration of orphaned Canada geese in a hang glider. When Mr. Fritz proclaimed he’d do the same with the ibises, he was initially ridiculed. But through years of trial and error, he succeeded. He even learned to fly like a bird, he said, soaring with ease. Mr. Fritz’s two sons, both now teenagers, followed their flying father and the migrating birds on the ground, and his family and colleagues witnessed the risks he was taking. But the inevitable risks are “necessary”, Mr. Fritz said.
“It’s not so much a job, ” he added, “but my life’s purpose. ”
24．Why did the northern bald ibis fail to migrate south for the winter
A．The impassable mountains. B．The late arrival of Mr. Fritz.
C．The daring and unconventional plan. D．The shifting climate patterns.
25．According to Paragraph 3, what is Fritz’s present concern
A．Complicated situations in the flying. B．The fast speed of the aircraft.
C．A strong attachment to their mother. D．Limited migration support.
26．What can we know from paragraph 4
A．Mr. Fritz was heavily favoured by those around.
B．Mr. Fritz was greatly inspired by the 1996 movie.
C．Mr. Fritz set a ridiculous example for his two sons.
D．Mr. Fritz convinced people around to witness the risks.
27．How does the author feel about Mr. Fritz
A．Imaginative and honest. B．Strong-willed and purposeful.
C．Generous and easygoing. D．Energetic and open-minded.
While we aim to avoid any appearance of baseless theories, it is noteworthy to observe the longstanding practice of putting magnets (磁铁) in cows, a phenomenon that has been carefully unfolding for years. Why are farmers putting magnets in cows
Known as cow magnets, the devices are placed inside cattle to deal with “hardware disease”. Hardware disease occurs after an animal eats a metallic object that then makes a hole in the wall of the reticulum, the second stomach room in ruminant animals (反刍动物) .This issue arises from the natural eating behaviors of these ruminants, similar to a person at an unlimited food event — quickly and eagerly taking large bites without sufficient chewing. This fast-paced feeding approach makes them tend to unintentionally consume metal pieces in their food, including broken farm machinery parts, nails and wires used in fencing, for instance.
Metal objects entering the reticulum may result in infections, increased body temperatures, digestive problems, and unease for the animals. To address hardware disease, the main strategy is to prevent metal from entering the cattle’s diet. Farmers have also adopted the method of placing cow magnets into the stomach using either a stomach tube or a balling gun. The cow magnet attracts such objects and prevents them from becoming fixed in the animal’s tissue. These magnets, once positioned, remain within the animals throughout their lifespan, only being removed after death when the cows pass away or are processed for meat.
Moseley, a Veterinary Medicine professor, states in a hardware disease resource, “The magnet gathers foreign metallic objects, reducing the risk of making a hole in the reticulum.” Research shows a mild magnetic field affects a cow’s small blood pathways, improving circulation and aiding recovery without significant impact on the cow or milk quality.
28．Why are magnets fed to cows
A．To change feeding habits.
B．To improve the milk quality.
C．To prevent hardware disease.
D．To enhance the digestive system.
29．What is the main cause of hardware disease in ruminant animals
A．Swallowing metals accidentally.
B．Taking magnets by mistake.
C．Chewing hard food sufficiently.
D．Eating without chewing.
30．What is the author’s purpose in writing the passage
A．To describe the historical practice of putting magnets in cows.
B．To explain the reason for using magnets to prevent hardware disease.
C．To discuss the influence of a mild magnetic field on milk quality.
D．To deny the adoption of cow magnets to enhance cattle health.
31．What might be a logical continuation of the passage
A．Evaluating the long-term effects of magnets on animals.
B．Investigating the broader applications of magnets.
C．Discussing the alternative methods of caring for cows.
D．Exploring more potential benefits of cow magnets.
Li Bai holds a wine cup in his hand, while Du Fu sits in front of a desk, writing poems on the paper in front of him. It’s not that we have traveled to the past. Modern technology has brought them “back to life”.
The two great poets, along with other humanoid robots, were presented at the 2023 World Robot Conference in late August in Beijing. They looked similar to real human beings.
“The skin is made of medical-grade bionic silicone (仿生硅胶), which is why the skin looks soft and veins can be seen through it,” CGTN explained in a video about Liaoning-based producer EXROBOTS. Goosebumps (鸡皮疙瘩) and palm lines can also be seen on the arms and hands.
Researchers are also trying hard to create other features of humans on robots. A U.S. robotics start-up Apptronik brought out its humanoid robot called Apollo on Aug 23, 2023. Apollo has around 30 muscles.
However, “humans have around 300 muscles in our bodies,” Nick Paine, the co-founder of the company, told the media. For now, engineers can only simplify the muscles, allowing them to do basic movements like holding objects and walking.
The robot also contains cameras and sensors in its head, helping it map out a 360-degree view of its environment. They also help the robot keep balance when walking on uncertain surfaces.
Nowadays, bionic human-like robots mostly work with humans, as tour guides or by helping visitors at front desks. There are also robots that share the work of nurses, such as handing out medicine. This could be because people feel comfortable to live and work with machines that look or act like them. They can “strike a chord with people,” a U.S. robotics scientist, Marc Raibert, told the media.
As more humanoid robots come out, safety will be the key, according to the Robot Report website. When a 70-kilogram robot breaks down and falls, humans nearby may be hurt.
32．What do we know about the robots of Li Bai and Du Fu
A．They look lifelike in every detail.
B．They can learn from each other.
C．They can communicate with visitors.
D．They manage to compose original poems.
33．According to the text, what is the limitation of the robot Apollo
A．It cannot keep balance on some surfaces.
B．It cannot perform complex movements.
C．It moves too slowly when holding objects.
D．It lacks the ability to tell people directions.
34．What does the underlined phrase “strike a chord” mean
A．Play a piece of music.
B．Be trustworthy friends.
C．Cause a feeling of emotional connection.
D．Look the same.
35．What is a suitable title for the text
A．Robots Play a Significant Role in Our Lives
B．The World Robot Conference Is a Success
C．Two Great Poets Got Revived Thanks to Technology
D．New Technology Makes Humanoid Robots Possible
Friends are incredibly important people in our lives. Some are with us for decades. 36 Here are some tips to remember if you’re processing the loss of a friend.
Sometimes things just don’t work out.
37 In fact, people, on average, lose about half of their friends every seven years. One of the most common reasons those relationships end is that they just fell through the cracks. Things didn’t work out. Nobody really wanted the friendship to end, but people got busy and didn’t intentionally maintain the friendship.
Make the unsaid said.
Sometimes, in friendship, people don’t make the unsaid said. 38 And because they’re never directly addressed, people get to a point where they want to end the friendship before actually addressing the problem. Actually, if they had intervened sooner, they might have been able to save the friendship.
It’s normal to feel grief.
When a friendship ends, there is a grieving process. Allow yourself to feel those emotions and be patient. Instead of pushing yourself to cheer up, try thinking like this, “Of course I’m upset. This is a natural part of intimacy (亲密关系) and loss. I lost someone I’m very close to. 39
40
It’s important not to blame yourself and be mean to yourself for not getting over the loss of a friendship. Just because this happened like this doesn’t mean more friendships will happen like this. Allow yourself to have a fresh perspective when you enter new friendships. You don’t want to go into a new connection fearfully.
A．That means I love them deeply.
B．Be kind to yourself along the way.
C．Find ways to enter a new friendship.
D．Small things can kind of accumulate.
E．Losing friends is a regular part of life.
F．But not all of them can stand the test of time.
G．When a close friendship ends, the reasons are complicated.
三、完形填空
I used to hate being called upon in class mainly because I didn’t like attention drawn to myself. And 41 otherwise assigned (指定) a seat by the teacher, I always 42 to sit at the back of the classroom.
All this changed after I joined a sports team. It began when a teacher suggested I try out for the basketball team. At first I thought it was a crazy 43 because I didn’t have a good sense of balance, nor did I have the 44 to keep pace with the others on the team and they would tease me. But for the teacher who kept insisting on my “ 45 for it”, I wouldn’t have decided to give a try.
Getting up the courage to go to the tryouts was only the 46 of it! When I first started 47 the practice sessions, I didn’t even know the rules of the game, much 48 what I was doing. Sometimes I’d get 49 and take a shot at the wrong direction—which made me feel really stupid. 50 , I wasn’t the only one “new” at the game, so I decided to focus on learning the game, do my best at each practice session, and not be too hard on myself for the things I didn’t know “just yet”.
I practiced and practiced. Soon I knew the 51 and the “moves”. Being part of a team was fun and motivating. Very soon the competitive 52 in me was winning over my lack of confidence. With time, I learned how to play and made friends in the 53 —friends who respected my efforts to work hard and be a team player. I never had so much fun!
With my improved self-confidence comes more praise from teachers and classmates. I have gone from 54 in the back of the classroom and not wanting to call attention to myself, to raising my hand—even when I sometimes wasn’t and not 100 percent 55 I had the right answer. Now I have more self-confidence in myself.
41．A．as B．unless C．until D．though
42．A．chose B．agreed C．meant D．hoped
43．A．plan B．idea C．belief D．saying
44．A．right B．chance C．ability D．patience
45．A．applying B．looking C．cheering D．going
46．A．point B．rest C．half D．basis
47．A．enjoying B．preparing C．watching D．attending
48．A．less B．later C．worse D．further
49．A．confused B．motivated C．embarrassed D．committed
50．A．Interestingly B．Fortunately C．Obviously D．Hopefully
51．A．steps B．rules C．orders D．games
52．A．role B．mind C．part D．value
53．A．process B．operation C．movement D．situation
54．A．dreaming B．playing C．relaxing D．hiding
55．A．lucky B．happy C．satisfied D．sure
四、语法填空
阅读下边短文, 在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的适当形式。
2024 is “The Year of the Dragon” on the Chinese lunar calendar. But 56 that’s the proper translation of the iconic mythical symbol of China or not has aroused 57 (heat)debate.
The Western concept of dragon is not consistent with 58 of the Chinese dragon. Influenced by Greek mythology, the dragon is often the keeper of treasure. For Europeans, dragon is usually a monster 59 (keep) distances away from people. With four legs and two huge black wings, they can spit fire or even poison gas out of their mouth. Contrary 60 the evil image of European dragons, Chinese dragons symbolize 61 (strong) and goodluck. In Chinese legends, dragons were appointed head of the four seas, rulers of weather and water. Those born in the year of the Loong are believed 62 (be)interested in the world and willing to give a helping hand.
The differences in perception of the mythical creatures in China and the West 63 (root)in their different cultural values. What is important is that as we enter 64 new lunar year, people 65 (global)appreciate the cultural values embodied in such Chinese symbols as Loong.

六、书面表达
67．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。
The moment my son Joe knew I was going to have another baby, he tried his best to stay out of our lives. By the time our daughter Molly was due to be born, I had grown accustomed to his embarrassment and animosity (敌意). I had grown accustomed to a lot of things, not the least of which was having an unexpected child at the age of thirty-nine. My husband, to his eternal credit, was delighted. Throughout it all, Joe rarely spoke to me, except to say, “You don’t have to come to my school,” and — after a marathon baby naming conference—“Call her Molly, the name of my friend’s dog.”
When Molly finally arrived, tiny, quiet and perfect, four family arms were there to draw her close. But Joe’s remained tightly crossed over his chest, on the far side of the hospital room I signed to him to come closer but he shook his head slightly. I could see him standing there, arms still folded, staring straight ahead.
Joe stayed away at a friend’s cottage when Molly and I came home from the hospital. He was still gone ten days later when I took our daughter for her first check-up. He arrived home just as I was coming back, tears streaming down my face. “The doctor thinks she might have a hearing problem,” I sobbed. “She’s too quiet she’s not responding like she should. We have to have her tested.”
As my husband comforted me, downplaying my worry, I noticed that Joe had stopped beside the baby, sound asleep in her car seat. He reached out to her, shifting her slightly away from a bump (隆起) in the carpet. “She’s okay,” he said, looking down at her. “There’s nothing wrong with her. She’s just little.”
Three months later as I walked the floor at 4:00 A．M. with a crying and inconsolable (难以安抚的) (and otherwise perfectly healthy) baby in my arms, I dragged myself into Joe’s room and woke him up “Joe, could you take her Just for a few minutes I can’t settle her down, Dad’s on business, and I just really need a break.”
注意：
1．续写词数应为150个左右；
2．请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Saying nothing, Joe took his little sister from me.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Seeing Molly sleeping peacefully in Joe’s bed, I walked out, followed by Joe.

M: Yes. The winnings not only allowed me to pay off my loan for college but it helped me make the Travel Talk app. The win also made me a bit of a celebrity in my small town, bringing me invitations to speak at local functions. On the whole, winning the contest was a great experience for me.
W: Do you have any suggestions for those who want to enter the contest
M: Yes. First, you should learn well about the rules. Second, you should read different kinds of materials to enrich your knowledge.

【原文】Look at the map now! I’m going to give you an introduction to the site.Now we’re on the right side of a river, standing at the entrance, and to our right is the ticket office. You won’t need that because you’ve got your group booking, and just past it are the toilets—always good to know where they are. To our left is a shop. That’s where you can get the guidebooks.
The big stone building at the top is the main workshop. That’s where all the metal was made into tools, which you’ll be able to see. Now, in the top right-hand corner, that building is the Showroom, where some tools are on show. In the top left corner is the Grinding Shop, where tools were sharpened and finished. And on one side of that you can see a cafe, which isn’t an antique. But they do serve very nice traditional tea. The rows of small wooden houses are on the left. These were built for the workers in the 18th century. You can get a good idea of ordinary people’s living conditions there. Across from them, you can see a yard where the horses were kept for transporting the products.

But shifting climate patterns have delayed when the birds begin to migrate, and they are now reaching the mountains too late to make it over the peaks, locking them in an icy death trap. (为了度过欧洲的冬天，曾经在欧洲大陆上完全消失的北方秃头鹭需要在阿尔卑斯山变得无法通行之前向南迁移过冬。但是不断变化的气候模式推迟了鸟类开始迁徙的时间，它们现在到达山脉的时间太晚了，无法越过山峰，这使它们陷入了一个冰冷的死亡陷阱。)”可知，不断变化的气候模式，导致北方的秃鹰没有迁徙到南方过冬。故选D。
25．细节理解题。根据第三段中“For now, however, the main worry is getting the birds to follow the aircraft. “While they have a strong bond with their ‘mothers’ and follow them around on the ground, flying is more difficult, ” Fritz said. (然而，目前主要的担忧是如何让鸟类跟随飞机飞行。弗里茨说：“虽然它们与‘母亲’有着密切的联系，并在地面上跟随母亲，但飞行却更加困难。”)”可知，Fritz现在的主要担忧是让鸟儿跟随飞机飞行，即飞行中的复杂情况。故选A项。
26．推理判断题。根据第四段““Fly Away Home was a huge hit with us biologists,” Mr. Fritz said, recalling the 1996movie in which a Canada geese was led to migrate by an aircraft. When Mr. Fritz claimed he’d do the same with the ibises, he was initially laughed at. But through years of trial and error, he succeeded. He even learned to fly like a bird, he said, laughing with ease. Mr. Fritz’s two sons, both now teenagers, followed their flying father and the migrating birds on the ground, and his family and colleagues witnessed the risks he was taking. But the unexpected risks are “necessary”, Mr. Fritz said. (“《飞回家》对我们生物学家来说是一部巨大的成功，”Fritz回忆起1996年的一部电影，其中一只加拿大鹅被一架飞机引导着迁徙。当Fritz声称他也会对朱鹭做同样的事情时，他最初遭到了嘲笑。但经过多年的反复试验，他成功了。他甚至学会了像鸟一样飞翔，他轻松地笑着说。Fritz的两个儿子现在都已经十几岁了，他们跟随飞翔的父亲和地面上的候鸟，他的家人和同事目睹了他所冒的风险。但Fritz表示，这些意外风险是“必要的”。)”可知，弗里茨深受1996年这部电影的启发。故选B项。
27．推理判断题。根据第四段““Fly Away Home was a huge hit with us biologists,” Mr. Fritz said, recalling the 1996movie in which a Canada geese was led to migrate by an aircraft. When Mr. Fritz claimed he’d do the same with the ibises, he was initially laughed at. But through years of trial and error, he succeeded. He even learned to fly like a bird, he said, laughing with ease. Mr. Fritz’s two sons, both now teenagers, followed their flying father and the migrating birds on the ground, and his family and colleagues witnessed the risks he was taking. But the unexpected risks are “necessary”, Mr. Fritz said. (“《飞回家》对我们生物学家来说是一部巨大的成功，”Fritz回忆起1996年的一部电影，其中一只加拿大鹅被一架飞机引导着迁徙。当Fritz声称他也会对朱鹭做同样的事情时，他最初遭到了嘲笑。但经过多年的反复试验，他成功了。他甚至学会了像鸟一样飞翔，他轻松地笑着说。Fritz的两个儿子现在都已经十几岁了，他们跟随飞翔的父亲和地面上的候鸟，他的家人和同事目睹了他所冒的风险。但Fritz表示，这些意外风险是“必要的”。)”以及第五段““It’s not so much a job,” he added, “but my life’s purpose.” (“与其说这是一份工作，”他补充说，“不如说是我人生的目标。”)”可知，Fritz表示他的工作不仅仅是他的工作，而是他的生活目标。这表明他非常有决心和意志力，对自己的目标非常明确和坚定。因此，可以推断出Fritz是一个意志坚定，目标明确的人。故选B项。
28．C 29．A 30．B 31．D
【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要解释了在牛体内放磁铁这种做法的原因。
28．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“Known as cow magnets, the devices are placed inside cattle to deal with “hardware disease”.(这种被称为牛磁铁的设备被放置在牛体内，以应对“创伤性胃炎”。)”和第三段中的“Metal objects entering the reticulum may result in infections, increased body temperatures, digestive problems, and unease for the animals. To address hardware disease, the main strategy is to prevent metal from entering the cattle’s diet. Farmers have also adopted the method of placing cow magnets into the stomach using either a stomach tube or a balling gun. The cow magnet attracts such objects and prevents them from becoming fixed in the animal’s tissue.(金属物体进入网胃可能会导致感染、体温升高、消化问题和动物的不安。为了解决创伤性胃炎，主要策略是防止金属进入牛的饮食。农民们还采用了将牛磁铁放入胃里的方法，要么使用胃管，要么使用投丸枪。牛磁铁吸引这些物体，防止它们固定在动物的组织中。)”可知，将牛磁铁放置在牛体内，可以吸引金属物体，防止金属固定在动物的组织里，从而预防创伤性胃炎。故选C。
29．细节理解题。根据第二段中的“This issue arises from the natural eating behaviors of these ruminants, similar to a person at an unlimited food event — quickly and eagerly taking large bites without sufficient chewing. This fast-paced feeding approach makes them tend to unintentionally consume metal pieces in their food, including broken farm machinery parts, nails and wires used in fencing, for instance.(这个问题源于这些反刍动物的自然饮食行为，类似于一个人在无限制的食物活动中——快速而热切地大吃一口，而没有足够的咀嚼。这种快节奏的喂养方式使它们倾向于无意中吞食食物中的金属块，例如破碎的农业机械零件、围栏中使用的钉子和电线。)”可知，反刍动物得创伤性胃炎是因为它们在没有充分咀嚼的情况下快速而急切地大口进食，这会使它们无意中吃掉食物中的金属碎片。故选A。
30．推理判断题。通读全文，尤其是第一段最后一句“Why are farmers putting magnets in cows (为什么农民要在牛体内放磁铁？)”和第二段中的“Known as cow magnets, the devices are placed inside cattle to deal with “hardware disease”.(这种被称为牛磁铁的设备被放置在牛体内，以应对“创伤性胃炎”。)”可知，本文主要解释了在牛体内放磁铁预防创伤性胃炎这种做法的原因。故选B。
31．推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Research shows a mild magnetic field affects a cow’s small blood pathways, improving circulation and aiding recovery without significant impact on the cow or milk quality.(研究表明，温和的磁场会影响牛的小血管，改善血液循环，帮助恢复，而不会对牛或牛奶质量产生重大影响。)”可知，在牛体内放磁铁除了能够防止创伤性胃炎外，还能够影响牛的小血液通路，改善血液循环，帮助恢复，而不会对牛或牛奶质量产生重大影响，由此可推测出，接下来文章可能会谈牛磁铁的更多潜在好处。故选D。
32．A 33．B 34．C 35．D
【导语】本文是一篇新闻报道。文章介绍2023世界机器人大会的李白、杜甫类人机器人，说明其仿生细节，还提及 Apollo 机器人局限、类人机器人用途及未来安全重点。
32．细节理解题。根据第一段中“Li Bai holds a wine cup in his hand, while Du Fu sits in front of a desk, writing poems on the paper in front of him. (李白手里端着酒杯，杜甫坐在书桌前，在他面前的纸上写诗)”和第二段“The two great poets, along with other humanoid robots, were presented at the 2023 World Robot Conference in late August in Beijing. They looked similar to real human beings(这两位伟大的诗人，以及其他人形机器人，于8月底在北京举行的2023年世界机器人大会上亮相。它们看起来和真人很像)”可知，这两个机器人每一个细节都栩栩如生。故选A项。
33．细节理解题。根据第五段中“For now, engineers can only simplify the muscles, allowing them to do basic movements like holding objects and walking.(目前，工程师们只能简化肌肉，让它们做一些基本的动作，比如拿东西和走路)”可知，目前这种机器人只能做一些基本的动作，做不了复杂的动作。故选B项。
34．词句猜测题。根据倒数第二段“Nowadays, bionic human-like robots mostly work with humans, as tour guides or by helping visitors at front desks. There are also robots that share the work of nurses, such as handing out medicine. This could be because people feel comfortable to live and work with machines that look or act like them.(如今，仿生类人机器人大多与人类一起工作，比如当导游或在前台帮助游客。也有一些机器人分担护士的工作，比如分发药品。这可能是因为人们觉得与看起来或行为像他们的机器一起生活和工作很舒服)”可知，人们觉得与看起来或行为像他们的机器一起生活和工作很舒服，所以猜测“strike a chord with people”意思是“与人们产生情感联系”。故选C项。
35．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第二段中“The two great poets, along with other humanoid robots, were presented at the 2023 World Robot Conference in late August in Beijing.(这两位伟大的诗人，以及其他人型机器人，于8月底在北京举行的2023年世界机器人大会上亮相)”可知，文章主要介绍了在2023年世界机器人大会上亮相的李白、杜甫、阿波罗等人型机器人，说明研究人员利用技术在这些机器人身上创造出人类的各种特征，让它们尽可能拥有人类的外观和动作模式，并借助摄像头和传感器帮助它们感知周围环境，从而使得人们对和这类机器人一起工作感到舒适。由此可知，D项New Technology Makes Humanoid Robots Possible(新技术使人型机器人成为可能)抓住了文章主旨，最适合作为标题。故选D项。

40．空处为小标题，为本段主要内容。根据下文内容“It’s important not to blame yourself and be mean to yourself for not getting over the loss of a friendship. Just because this happened like this doesn’t mean more friendships will happen like this. Allow yourself to have a fresh perspective when you enter new friendships. You don’t want to go into a new connection fearfully.(重要的是不要因为没有从失去友谊中走出来而责怪自己，也不要对自己刻薄。仅仅因为这样的事情发生了并不意味着会有更多这样的友谊发生。当你开始一段新的友谊时，让自己有一个新的视角。你不想害怕地进入一段新的关系。)”可知，本段主要讲述的是不要苛责自己。选项B“Be kind to yourself along the way.(一路走来，要善待自己。)”与本段内容相符，指的是善待自己。故选B。

67． Saying nothing, Joe took his little sister from me. He laid her gently on his bed, tightly rewrapping her blanket. Putting her over his shoulder, he patted her back and spoke to her softly. He acted so skillfully. Miraculously, Molly stopped crying immediately and became quiet. I watched in amazement as my son, who had been so distant and cold towards me, became a loving and caring big brother. Tears welling up in my eyes, I breathed a sigh of relief. It didn't take long for Molly to fall asleep.
Seeing Molly sleeping peacefully in Joe’s bed, I walked out, followed by Joe. “Thank you, Joe.” I said with my eyes fixed on his little face. “Molly is lovely.” Joe responded shyly. “I’m sorry that I didn’t welcome her as our new family member at first.” Joe apologized. He explained to me by saying he was worried Molly might take parental love away from him. I hugged him tightly and told him it was normal to think that way and assured him that nobody could replace him in Mom’s and Dad’s hearts.
