第二部分 阅读理解 (共两节，满分50分)
第一节 (共15小题；每小题2. 5分，满分37. 5分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Sound is measured in decibels (dB) (分贝) . There are many sounds in the environment, from rustling leaves (20 dB) to a normal conversation (60 dB) , from a screaming baby (80dB) to a subway train (100 dB) . Sounds that reach 85 dB or higher can harm a person's ears.
Permissible Exposure Time
How long can a person be exposed to a certain sound before risking hearing damage According to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, for every 3 dB sound Pressure level over 85 dB, the permissible exposure time is cut in half — before damage to Our hearing can occur.
Sound Pressure Level Permissible Exposure Time
85 dB 8 hours
88 dB 4 hours
91 dB 2 hours
Four Commonest Types of Noise Pollution
● Road vehicles are one major source of noise pollution. This is more concentrated in urban areas where there is a much higher number of vehicles.
● Fireworks, used generally for celebrations, are beautiful. However, they can be very loud, and scary! There is no real way of dealing with it, as fireworks are used so briefly.
● Construction work cause loud and disturbing noises which can make it hard to concentrate. Most countries have laws in place preventing construction work from taking place between certain times.
● Animals also cause noise pollution. For example, if you live on a road where somebody keeps their dog outside for hours on end while it barks constantly, that's really annoying.
Obviously, noise pollution is a widespread issue. But the consequences of this pollution are often underestimated. According to WHO estimates, at least 1 million healthy life-years are lost annually from traffic-related environmental noise alone in western Europe. It is time that the effects of noise pollution on public health receive more attention.
21. What is the permissible exposure time to the noise of a subway train
A. 8 hours. B. 1 hour. C. 30 minutes. D. 15 minutes.
22. Which type of noise pollution already has legal restrictions in most countries
A. Road vehicles. B. Fireworks. C. Construction work. D. Animals.
23. What does the author imply in the last paragraph
A. There is a lack of attention to public health.
B. Noise pollution is most serious in western Europe.
C. Noise pollution has become the deadliest pollution.
D. There is insufficient awareness of the harm of noise pollution.
B
I remember when I started telling people about my upcoming solo (独自的) travel to Mongolia, I was met with surprise and often confusion. My manager at the time gave me a funny look and warned me against going there. I didn’t panic. I’d done my research. Mongolia wasn’t as dangerous as people thought — in fact, it’s far safer than a lot of more frequented countries, like South America.
The thing about Mongolia is… no one has been there. I don’t know a single other person in my life who has been there. Except for the friends I made while I was there.
That’s the thing about solo travel — you don’t technically have to do it alone. Since Mongolia held some risks to it and is considered one of the most remote regions in the world, I decided to join a small-group tour.
I admit I was a little nervous. Looking up past trips on this company’s website, it looked like it was a whole bunch of couples that frequented these tours. I started picturing six couples, enjoying a Mongolian sunset… and then little old me. Just off to the side, enjoying it on my own.
When I arrived in Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia, and met the rest of the tour, I was both surprised and thrilled to realise that, of the ten people on tour, there was only one pair. Everybody else was there on their own. And instead of sitting off to the side like I’d feared, I’d been tent-paired with a lovely young American girl called Annie. On what other occasions might I have met her if not for this solo trip The decision to travel solo, to not let the fact that I didn’t have a travel companion stop me, was what brought us together.
And that’s the beauty of travelling solo. When I’m alone, I’m more likely to branch out and talk to the locals and strangers, even if there’s a language barrier. And, in my experience, most people are good people. Start up a conversation, ask questions, and be curious. Most importantly: don’t be a tourist. Be a traveller.
24. What does the author say about Mongolia
A. It is hardly accessible. B. It is suitable for solo travel.
C. It is a popular destination. D. It is safer than people think.
25. Why was the author nervous about the small-group tour
A She feared being left out. B. She feared being too old to bond.
C. She was unsure of the risks ahead. D. She was unfamiliar with such tours.
26. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning Annie
A. To illustrate a benefit of solo travel. B. To show the friendliness of the small-group.
C. To stress the growing popularity of solo travel. D. To explain the importance of cooperation in travel.
27. According to the author, what is most attractive about solo travel
A. The thrill of self-discovery. B. The freedom of being alone.
C. The authentic engagement with others. D. The improvement of conversation skills.
C
On a cool day this past August, a two-year-old boy walked onto Boston’s Stanwood Street, a narrow neighborhood way lined with parked cars on both sides. A driver hit the child, whose blue-shirted body disappeared under the car. Miraculously (奇迹般地), the child survived.
But it was not a miracle that saved him mere feet before hitting the child, the driver had slowed for a speed hump (减速带). “Had that car been going faster, there’s a very good chance that kid would not have lived.” says Boston chief of streets Jasper Franklin-Hodge.
Crashes, explains associate professor of surgery David Mooney, are “all kinetic energy (动能) .” Doubling a car’s speed makes its kinetic energy four times bigger. “Only 10 percent of pedestrians (行人) die when struck by a vehicle traveling at 23 miles per hour — but a quarter die when the speed is 32 m. p.h. , half at 42 m. p.h. , and three-quarters at 50 m. p.h.” he says.
Accordingly, safety-minded road planners look for every opportunity to reduce vehicle speed. One might think speed could be reduced simply by lowering the speed limit, but the reality is more complex. Stanwood Street’s posted speed limit of 20 m. p.h. (a “slow zone”) was reinforced by tightly parked cars and speed humps — all physically encouraging the driver to go slowly. Architect Jeff Speck studies urban roads like this one, helping cities design safe, walkable streets. In an urban environment, he says, drivers choose their speed based not on the posted limit but on “what feels safe in that environment”.
But drivers often dislike the interventions that encourage slow speeds. Many drivers desire “elbow room” so those who are going beyond the speed limit by 5 to 10 m. p.h. can still proceed easily. However, designing a road for a speed faster than its posted limit invites everyone to speed. “Giving drivers a feeling of safety,” Speck says, “makes them more dangerous.”
28. What saved the two-year-old boy
A. Pure luck. B. A speed hump.
C. The quick action of the driver. D. The low speed limit of the neighborhood.
29. How does Mooney illustrate the relationship between vehicle speed and death rate
A. By referring to a study. B. By sharing experiences.
C. By providing statistics. D. By analyzing cause and effect.
30. What does the underlined word “reinforced” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Strengthened. B. Replaced. C. Disturbed. D. Determined.
31. What is Speck’s attitude towards “elbow room”
A. Favorable. B. Disapproving. C. Tolerant. D. Unclear.
D
Your team uses AI to draft ad copy, create blog posts, design graphics, or even generate product ideas. But when that content performs well (or gets copied) , one question keeps coming up: who actually owns it It feels like it should be yours. But under current U.S. law, it might not be.
According to the U.S. Copyright (版权) Office, content that is entirely created by AI without human input is not qualified for copyright protection. This means if an AI tool creates an image or writes a full blog post with no editing or guidance from a human, no one owns it.
Then what counts as enough human input Some AI tools let you guide the process, make changes to the results, or shape the final outcome. If a person plays a meaningful role in shaping the content by editing, combining, or making decisions, that work may be protected. But the line is still unclear. Submitting a prompt (提示词) isn’t enough. You’ll need to show that a human made real creative choices and contributed something original beyond just giving instructions.
Even if the work cannot be copyrighted, you still need to think about who owns the work. If you’re using AI with the help of outside contractors (外包商) , make sure your agreements clearly state that all rights to the work, including AI-assisted work, are yours. Without that, the person who operated AI might have a claim to the output.
Every AI platform has its own terms of use. Some say you own the output. Others say they can reuse or store it. Some platforms even restrict commercial use. If you’re building content into your product design, you need to know what your AI tool allows and whether your competitors could end up using the same content you paid for.
AI law is still being shaped. But businesses don’t have time to sit back and see how it unfolds. You need clear policies, well-written contracts, and smart review systems in place now. Otherwise, you could be investing time and money into content that offers no legal protection and leaves your business exposed.
32. What makes AI-created content qualified for copyright protection
A. Its great performance. B. Creative human involvement.
C. Its complex generation process. D. Prompts submitted by humans.
33. What does the author suggest readers do with AI platforms
A. Operate the AI tool themselves. B. Make a claim to the paid output.
C. Get familiar with the user agreement. D. Avoid the platform used by competitors.
34. What does the author think of the current AI law
A. It is outdated. B. It is immature.
C. It is overprotective. D. It is ineffective.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. What to Know about AI Tools B. Where will AI Platforms Lead Us
C. Who Owns AI-generated Content D. How to Protect Your AI-Assisted Work
第二节 (共5小题；每小题2. 5分，满分12. 5分)
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
A leader is someone who inspires positive change by empowering those around them. ____36____ Effective communication is vital to gain trust, align (统一) efforts in the pursuit of goals, and inspire positive change. Here are some communication skills you need.
Active Listening
Effective leaders know when they need to talk and, more importantly, when they need to listen. Show that you care by asking for employees’ opinions, ideas, and feedback. ____37____ Pose questions, invite them to explain in detail, and take notes. Keep your focus on the employees and what they’re saying.
Clarity
____38____ Define the desired result of a project or strategic initiative and be clear about what you want to see achieved by the end of each milestone. If goals aren’t being met, try simplifying your message further or ask how you can provide additional clarity or help. The more clear you are, the less confusion there will be.
Empathy (共情)
Empathy has been ranked the top leadership skill needed for success. The better you get at acknowledging and understanding employees’ feelings, the more heard and valued they’ll feel. In a recent survey, 96 percent of respondents said it was important for their employers to demonstrate empathy. ____39____ If you want to improve your communication and build a stronger and more productive culture, practice responding with empathy.
Open Body Language
Communication isn’t just what you say; it’s how you carry yourself. Ninety-three percent of communication's impact comes from nonverbal language, according to executive coach Darlene Price. To ensure you’re conveying the right message, focus on your body language. If you’re trying to inspire someone, talking with a furrowed brow (皱眉) isn’t going to send the right message. ____40____
A. Identify your communication style.
B. Yet nine in ten claimed it remains undervalued.
C. The most powerful tool for doing so is communication.
D. When communicating with employees, speak in specifics.
E. And when they do share, actively engage in the conversation.
F. Your tone of voice equally shapes the perception of your message.
G. Instead, make eye contact and flash a genuine smile to convey warmth and trust.

For the first wish he helped to fulfill, Bloom ____50____ flights for a desperate old lady named Nancy so she could say goodbye to her dying daughter ____51____ . After four days with her daughter, Nancy returned. “I ____52____ a totally different human being at the airport,” Bloom remembers. “She had found needed ____53____ in seeing her daughter one last time.”
Wish of a Lifetime is not Bloom’s ____54____ job—he’s currently the CEO of X Games — but Bloom says, “It is my 100 percent all in. It is: Let’s meet the seniors. Let’s ____55____ as many lives as we can.”

第二节 (共10小题；每小题1. 5分，满分15分)
阅读下面短文，在空白处填入1个适当的单词或括号内单词的正确形式。
Sell products at a loss and call it a strategy That is the concept of a loss leader (低价引流产品) : a certain product that is sold below its cost ____56____ (attract) customers to the store, where they are likely to buy other ____57____ (profit) products. The most famous example is Costco’s $1. 50 hot dog-and-soda combination, ____58____ deal so successful that it sells 130 million a year.
But over the past year, across the Pacific, a new king ____59____ (emerge). It is an ice cream cone (甜筒) ____60____ typically costs 40 cents — and customers buy about 700 million a year. The Chinese company behind the cone, Mixue Ice Cream & Tea, has topped McDonald’s and Starbucks ____61____ the world's largest fast-food chain by the number of stores, ____62____ (most) in Asia.
It did so by perfecting the modern science of making money by losing money. The classic version of the loss leader is to price a product at a low price ____63____ put it in the far back of the store. Chances are that customers are going to pick up other full-priced items in the store while buying that loss leader. However, Mixue stores, often small ____64____ (stand) , can’t direct customers through a shopping maze (迷宫) . Instead, they put the ice cream on top of the menu, ____65____ (follow) by about 35 items that make money.
Though Mixue calls the cone its signature item, it sells many more drinks — more than 7billion last year. Those typically cost closer to a dollar.

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。
Jessica breathed in the familiar smell of dried grass and horses when entering the building for horses. She was back for another summer at Green Meadow Farm’s riding camp. Her advisor, Rose, walked beside her. Jessica searched every corner, hoping to see Piper, her favourite horse she had bonded with last year. They had even won second place in the annual obstacle course race (障碍赛跑) , where Piper had skillfully moved through the poles. Jessica loved everything about Piper, from her gentleness to the way Piper’s soft nose tickled (使发痒) her hand whenever she fed her apples.
“I can’t wait to ride Piper,” Jessica told Rose. Rose smiled. “I know you love Piper, but we need to save her for some new riders.” Jessica’s heart sank, but she nodded in understanding.
“How about you try riding Harley ” Rose said. Jessica was a little frightened by the giant male horse Rose pointed to. Even though Harley was beautiful with his shiny hair, he looked restless. Rose could sense Jessica’s anxiety. “Don’t worry. He just needs an experienced rider to help train him.”
Jessica cautiously approached him, but Harley moved away. As Jessica touched his back, he appeared restless and let out a loud cry, making Jessica even more nervous. An annoyed Jessica led an unwilling Harley outside. She climbed on top of him and headed to the obstacle course. However, when reaching the fence, Harley planted his feet in the dirt, refusing to take another step.
The first few days together were full of challenges. Harley refused jumps, galloped (飞奔) out of control, and once, frightened by a bird, he even went up on his back legs and threw Jessica into the air. Feeling painful and discouraged, she turned to Rose. “I really miss Piper and her gentleness. Harley is too hard to control.” Patting her on the shoulder, Rose said thoughtfully, “It’s okay to be scared, but do remember Harley has his own fears. If you are nervous, you will make him nervous. If you are confident, he will feel confident. If you show him trust, he will trust you.”
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。
Hearing that, Jessica decided it was time for a fresh start with Harley.

第二部分 阅读理解 (共两节，满分50分)
第一节 (共15小题；每小题2. 5分，满分37. 5分)
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C和D四个选项中，选出最佳选项。
A
Sound is measured in decibels (dB) (分贝) . There are many sounds in the environment, from rustling leaves (20 dB) to a normal conversation (60 dB) , from a screaming baby (80dB) to a subway train (100 dB) . Sounds that reach 85 dB or higher can harm a person's ears.
Permissible Exposure Time
How long can a person be exposed to a certain sound before risking hearing damage According to the National Institute for Occupational Safety and Health, for every 3 dB sound Pressure level over 85 dB, the permissible exposure time is cut in half — before damage to Our hearing can occur.
Sound Pressure Level Permissible Exposure Time
85 dB 8 hours
88 dB 4 hours
91 dB 2 hours
Four Commonest Types of Noise Pollution
● Road vehicles are one major source of noise pollution. This is more concentrated in urban areas where there is a much higher number of vehicles.
● Fireworks, used generally for celebrations, are beautiful. However, they can be very loud, and scary! There is no real way of dealing with it, as fireworks are used so briefly.
● Construction work cause loud and disturbing noises which can make it hard to concentrate. Most countries have laws in place preventing construction work from taking place between certain times.
● Animals also cause noise pollution. For example, if you live on a road where somebody keeps their dog outside for hours on end while it barks constantly, that's really annoying.
Obviously, noise pollution is a widespread issue. But the consequences of this pollution are often underestimated. According to WHO estimates, at least 1 million healthy life-years are lost annually from traffic-related environmental noise alone in western Europe. It is time that the effects of noise pollution on public health receive more attention.
21. What is the permissible exposure time to the noise of a subway train
A. 8 hours. B. 1 hour. C. 30 minutes. D. 15 minutes.
22. Which type of noise pollution already has legal restrictions in most countries
A. Road vehicles. B. Fireworks. C. Construction work. D. Animals.
23. What does the author imply in the last paragraph
A. There is a lack of attention to public health.
B. Noise pollution is most serious in western Europe.
C. Noise pollution has become the deadliest pollution.
D. There is insufficient awareness of the harm of noise pollution.
【答案】21. D 22. C 23. D

I remember when I started telling people about my upcoming solo (独自的) travel to Mongolia, I was met with surprise and often confusion. My manager at the time gave me a funny look and warned me against going there. I didn’t panic. I’d done my research. Mongolia wasn’t as dangerous as people thought — in fact, it’s far safer than a lot of more frequented countries, like South America.
The thing about Mongolia is… no one has been there. I don’t know a single other person in my life who has been there. Except for the friends I made while I was there.
That’s the thing about solo travel — you don’t technically have to do it alone. Since Mongolia held some risks to it and is considered one of the most remote regions in the world, I decided to join a small-group tour.
I admit I was a little nervous. Looking up past trips on this company’s website, it looked like it was a whole bunch of couples that frequented these tours. I started picturing six couples, enjoying a Mongolian sunset… and then little old me. Just off to the side, enjoying it on my own.
When I arrived in Ulaanbaatar, the capital of Mongolia, and met the rest of the tour, I was both surprised and thrilled to realise that, of the ten people on tour, there was only one pair. Everybody else was there on their own. And instead of sitting off to the side like I’d feared, I’d been tent-paired with a lovely young American girl called Annie. On what other occasions might I have met her if not for this solo trip The decision to travel solo, to not let the fact that I didn’t have a travel companion stop me, was what brought us together.
And that’s the beauty of travelling solo. When I’m alone, I’m more likely to branch out and talk to the locals and strangers, even if there’s a language barrier. And, in my experience, most people are good people. Start up a conversation, ask questions, and be curious. Most importantly: don’t be a tourist. Be a traveller.
24. What does the author say about Mongolia
A. It is hardly accessible. B. It is suitable for solo travel.
C. It is a popular destination. D. It is safer than people think.
25. Why was the author nervous about the small-group tour
A She feared being left out. B. She feared being too old to bond.
C. She was unsure of the risks ahead. D. She was unfamiliar with such tours.
26. What is the author’s purpose in mentioning Annie
A. To illustrate a benefit of solo travel. B. To show the friendliness of the small-group.
C. To stress the growing popularity of solo travel. D. To explain the importance of cooperation in travel.
27. According to the author, what is most attractive about solo travel
A. The thrill of self-discovery. B. The freedom of being alone.
C. The authentic engagement with others. D. The improvement of conversation skills.
【答案】24. D 25. A 26. A 27. C
C
On a cool day this past August, a two-year-old boy walked onto Boston’s Stanwood Street, a narrow neighborhood way lined with parked cars on both sides. A driver hit the child, whose blue-shirted body disappeared under the car. Miraculously (奇迹般地), the child survived.
But it was not a miracle that saved him mere feet before hitting the child, the driver had slowed for a speed hump (减速带). “Had that car been going faster, there’s a very good chance that kid would not have lived.” says Boston chief of streets Jasper Franklin-Hodge.
Crashes, explains associate professor of surgery David Mooney, are “all kinetic energy (动能) .” Doubling a car’s speed makes its kinetic energy four times bigger. “Only 10 percent of pedestrians (行人) die when struck by a vehicle traveling at 23 miles per hour — but a quarter die when the speed is 32 m. p.h. , half at 42 m. p.h. , and three-quarters at 50 m. p.h.” he says.
Accordingly, safety-minded road planners look for every opportunity to reduce vehicle speed. One might think speed could be reduced simply by lowering the speed limit, but the reality is more complex. Stanwood Street’s posted speed limit of 20 m. p.h. (a “slow zone”) was reinforced by tightly parked cars and speed humps — all physically encouraging the driver to go slowly. Architect Jeff Speck studies urban roads like this one, helping cities design safe, walkable streets. In an urban environment, he says, drivers choose their speed based not on the posted limit but on “what feels safe in that environment”.
But drivers often dislike the interventions that encourage slow speeds. Many drivers desire “elbow room” so those who are going beyond the speed limit by 5 to 10 m. p.h. can still proceed easily. However, designing a road for a speed faster than its posted limit invites everyone to speed. “Giving drivers a feeling of safety,” Speck says, “makes them more dangerous.”
28. What saved the two-year-old boy
A. Pure luck. B. A speed hump.
C. The quick action of the driver. D. The low speed limit of the neighborhood.
29. How does Mooney illustrate the relationship between vehicle speed and death rate
A. By referring to a study. B. By sharing experiences.
C. By providing statistics. D. By analyzing cause and effect.
30. What does the underlined word “reinforced” in paragraph 4 mean
A. Strengthened. B. Replaced. C. Disturbed. D. Determined.
31. What is Speck’s attitude towards “elbow room”
A. Favorable. B. Disapproving. C. Tolerant. D. Unclear.
【答案】28. B 29. C 30. A 31. B
D
Your team uses AI to draft ad copy, create blog posts, design graphics, or even generate product ideas. But when that content performs well (or gets copied) , one question keeps coming up: who actually owns it It feels like it should be yours. But under current U.S. law, it might not be.
According to the U.S. Copyright (版权) Office, content that is entirely created by AI without human input is not qualified for copyright protection. This means if an AI tool creates an image or writes a full blog post with no editing or guidance from a human, no one owns it.
Then what counts as enough human input Some AI tools let you guide the process, make changes to the results, or shape the final outcome. If a person plays a meaningful role in shaping the content by editing, combining, or making decisions, that work may be protected. But the line is still unclear. Submitting a prompt (提示词) isn’t enough. You’ll need to show that a human made real creative choices and contributed something original beyond just giving instructions.
Even if the work cannot be copyrighted, you still need to think about who owns the work. If you’re using AI with the help of outside contractors (外包商) , make sure your agreements clearly state that all rights to the work, including AI-assisted work, are yours. Without that, the person who operated AI might have a claim to the output.
Every AI platform has its own terms of use. Some say you own the output. Others say they can reuse or store it. Some platforms even restrict commercial use. If you’re building content into your product design, you need to know what your AI tool allows and whether your competitors could end up using the same content you paid for.
AI law is still being shaped. But businesses don’t have time to sit back and see how it unfolds. You need clear policies, well-written contracts, and smart review systems in place now. Otherwise, you could be investing time and money into content that offers no legal protection and leaves your business exposed.
32. What makes AI-created content qualified for copyright protection
A. Its great performance. B. Creative human involvement.
C. Its complex generation process. D. Prompts submitted by humans.
33. What does the author suggest readers do with AI platforms
A. Operate the AI tool themselves. B. Make a claim to the paid output.
C. Get familiar with the user agreement. D. Avoid the platform used by competitors.
34. What does the author think of the current AI law
A. It is outdated. B. It is immature.
C. It is overprotective. D. It is ineffective.
35. What can be a suitable title for the text
A. What to Know about AI Tools B. Where will AI Platforms Lead Us
C. Who Owns AI-generated Content D. How to Protect Your AI-Assisted Work

A leader is someone who inspires positive change by empowering those around them. ____36____ Effective communication is vital to gain trust, align (统一) efforts in the pursuit of goals, and inspire positive change. Here are some communication skills you need.
Active Listening
Effective leaders know when they need to talk and, more importantly, when they need to listen.

Keep your focus on the employees and what they’re saying.
Clarity
____38____ Define the desired result of a project or strategic initiative and be clear about what you want to see achieved by the end of each milestone. If goals aren’t being met, try simplifying your message further or ask how you can provide additional clarity or help. The more clear you are, the less confusion there will be.
Empathy (共情)
Empathy has been ranked the top leadership skill needed for success. The better you get at acknowledging and understanding employees’ feelings, the more heard and valued they’ll feel.

Sell products at a loss and call it a strategy That is the concept of a loss leader (低价引流产品) : a certain product that is sold below its cost ____56____ (attract) customers to the store, where they are likely to buy other ____57____ (profit) products.

Chances are that customers are going to pick up other full-priced items in the store while buying that loss leader.

Instead, they put the ice cream on top of the menu, ____65____ (follow) by about 35 items that make money.
Though Mixue calls the cone its signature item, it sells many more drinks — more than 7billion last year. Those typically cost closer to a dollar.

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。
Jessica breathed in the familiar smell of dried grass and horses when entering the building for horses. She was back for another summer at Green Meadow Farm’s riding camp. Her advisor, Rose, walked beside her. Jessica searched every corner, hoping to see Piper, her favourite horse she had bonded with last year. They had even won second place in the annual obstacle course race (障碍赛跑) , where Piper had skillfully moved through the poles. Jessica loved everything about Piper, from her gentleness to the way Piper’s soft nose tickled (使发痒) her hand whenever she fed her apples.
“I can’t wait to ride Piper,” Jessica told Rose. Rose smiled. “I know you love Piper, but we need to save her for some new riders.” Jessica’s heart sank, but she nodded in understanding.
“How about you try riding Harley ” Rose said. Jessica was a little frightened by the giant male horse Rose pointed to. Even though Harley was beautiful with his shiny hair, he looked restless. Rose could sense Jessica’s anxiety. “Don’t worry. He just needs an experienced rider to help train him.”
Jessica cautiously approached him, but Harley moved away. As Jessica touched his back, he appeared restless and let out a loud cry, making Jessica even more nervous. An annoyed Jessica led an unwilling Harley outside. She climbed on top of him and headed to the obstacle course. However, when reaching the fence, Harley planted his feet in the dirt, refusing to take another step.
The first few days together were full of challenges. Harley refused jumps, galloped (飞奔) out of control, and once, frightened by a bird, he even went up on his back legs and threw Jessica into the air. Feeling painful and discouraged, she turned to Rose. “I really miss Piper and her gentleness. Harley is too hard to control.” Patting her on the shoulder, Rose said thoughtfully, “It’s okay to be scared, but do remember Harley has his own fears. If you are nervous, you will make him nervous. If you are confident, he will feel confident. If you show him trust, he will trust you.”
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；

Hearing that, Jessica decided it was time for a fresh start with Harley.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The final day of the camp arrived, bringing with it the obstacle course race.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】 Hearing that, Jessica decided it was time for a fresh start with Harley. Determined to build trust, she grabbed an apple from her lunch box and went to find Harley. Initially, Harley stepped back, his eyes wide with suspicion. Speaking softly, Jessica offered the apple, her hand held steady. This calmness finally convinced him to take a cautious bite. With the ice broken, she began the training, starting with simple commands. Practicing together every day, Jessica felt their confidence growing remarkably. Harley, no longer flinching at every sound, started to respond willingly. It was after numerous such sessions that a true partnership blossomed, transforming their initial struggles into smooth teamwork. Soon, they were working their way through the obstacle course that once seemed impossible.
The final day of the camp arrived, bringing with it the obstacle course race. Before starting, Jessica leaned close, whispering, “We can achieve this, together.” So profound was their bond that all the fear vanished. At the signal, they surged forward as one. With Harley as a partner rather than just a horse, they flew over jumps with incredible power and weaved through poles with graceful precision. It was a flawless performance. Not until an explosion of cheers erupted did Jessica realize they had crossed the finish line first. Overwhelmed with joy, she threw her arms around Harley’s neck, feeling his warm breath and steady presence. At that victorious moment, she finally understood the profound wisdom of Rose’s words: the patiently built trust is the foundation of everything.
