Sugar was my first choice when I was sad or happy, and the dependency and health consequences made it my abuser even as early as age five. For over twenty years after seven, every weight loss intervention failed me, leaving me feeling hopeless.
I was fourteen when I went to my first weight-loss camp. I knew that I would regain all the weight I’d lost when I went home. A little voice inside me whispered. “You should help people. You should make a program that really works.” That voice got louder with each failed diet. It sparked a need to help others who were struggling like me.
Eventually, I recognized that my issue was sugar. I broke up with sugar and dieting and found a way to heal my relationship with food. I finally created a program that would help people in the way that I had needed desperately all along.
That program took off. My clients discovered that their relationships with food could be loving and sustainable. As a result, I was often encouraged to take my message to a larger platform. But when l finally was committed to sharing my story with the world, I knew that I had to tell it all leaving no stone unturned.
My friend Rumi said, “The wound is the place where the light enters you.” Finally, I was ready to tell my story, shining a big and bright light on all the wounds. With anxiety screaming in my ear, I made progress and wrote Breaking Up with Sugar. Now, I receive daily e-mails from readers telling me that they finally feel heard and understood. They’re hopeful for the first time in their lives. To me, this is the truest meaning of life — to be truly healthy and loving. The greatest lesson I’ve learned on this journey is that by embracing my truth, loving and sharing it, I am able to become the best version of myself — someone whom I love and cherish.

In the vast desert plains of northwest Namibia, rhino (犀牛) trackers start a journey to monitor the desert-adapted black rhinos. These creatures, known for their poor eyesight, walk freely in this remote region.
Led by Sebulon Hoeb, the principal field office r of Save the Rhino Trust Namibia, the tracker carefully approach a grazing rhino named Matty 2. identified by his partner Ebson Mbunguha. Despite the windy conditions working in their favor, they maintain a safe distance, aware of the potential danger of encountering these massive animals.
Every day and night, devoted trackers and local community rangers patrol (巡逻) the vast expanse of land, totaling 25, 000 square kilometers, where the desert-adapted black rhino thrives. Armed with extensive knowledge of the rhinos’ behaviors and characteristics, they carefully document their observations, contributing to conservation efforts and fighting poaching (偷猎), which remains a constant threat due to the high demand for rhino horns.
Despite challenges, Namibia’s community conservation model has succeeded in protecting the rhino population. By prioritizing the preservation of wildlife and ensuring local communities to benefit from their natural resources, Namibia has become a lighthouse of conservation efforts in Africa. Save the Rhino Trust, established in 1982, has played a vital role in this achievement, witnessing a remarkable recovery in the black rhino population.
The significance of community conservation is stressed by Namibia’s commitment to environmental protection, written in its constitution since gaining independence in 1990. With the establishment of shared conservancies covering over 20% of the country’s territory, Namibia has pioneered a sustainable approach that balances conservation with economic development.
For the rhino rangers who devote their lives to safeguarding these iconic creatures, the job is rewarding. Living under the vast southern sky, they bear weeks of tented living, braving the dangers of tracking rhinos on foot. Despite the challenges, their serious commitment ensures the continued survival of the desert-adapted black rhino, a testament to the power of community-driven conservation efforts in preserving Earth’s oldest mammals.
28. What is the primary role of the rhino trackers
A. To relocate rhinos to other habitats.

D. To learn about the current situation of rhinos.
29. What can be learned about the rhinos in Namibia
A. They favor windy conditions. B. They will go extinct.
C. They are easy to approach. D. They can be violent.
30. Which best describes the conservation efforts in Namibia
A. Limited. B. Fruitful. C. Inconsistent. D. Unnoticed.

“When life gives you lemons, make lemonade (柠檬水).” It is a good saying, but life throws at us more serious problems than lemons, doesn’t it What do we do when we lose a family member What do we do when we have been through events that leave us feelings Can any failure be turned into success
Most of us realize we can learn one or two things from failure. When we fail, we think, “Well, I won’t try that again! ”or “I won’t trust anyone again! ”But this is not useful learning. It is suggested that we ask challenging questions. For example, “How could I try that again ” There are a lot we can learn and get from failure if we keep asking good questions on how to do better next time.
Failure or pain can be good for developing our character if we choose to face it in a positive way. Our own suffering often makes us understand others better. It can give us wisdom or knowledge to share with others, which can prevent them from similar failure. If we have been hurt by others because of another person’s poor character, it may improve us to be better persons.
Failures can make us experience many things that we didn’t experience before. If you lose your job, it doesn’t mean you lose everything and probably you may get more. As we know, no job often leads to self employment; no job has been the beginning of many highly successful businesses. It is common that we don’t like changing, but change, even unfortunate change, brings new opportunities. Sometimes only failure brings us better opportunities or greater success.
32. The underlined sentence in Paragraph 1 means that ________.
A. any lemons can be made into lemonade
B. problems always bring us lots of trouble
C. problems can never be avoided in our life
D. failure can also be turned into a success
33. The 2nd paragraph mainly tells us that ________.
A. We should learn more when we fail
B. We must be careful to trust anyone
C. We must ask questions when we fail
D. We should deal with failure positively
34. According to the writer, if you were hurt by another person, you should ________.
A. avoid hurting others in the same way
B. find a better way to hurt him bravely
C. try to prevent him from hurting others
D. thank him for making you more perfect
35. What is the best title of the passage
A. Failure Decides success B. Failure Creates Opportunities
C. Failure Brings Everything D. Failure Makes a Perfect Person

Tom was a fishing amateur. He once came to a wet place in the roadless forest to fish with his friends William and Tony. They put up their tent upon the top of a pine-clothed mountain and then began fishing. However, none of them was successful fisherman. They were either made lazy by the sun or wet by the rain. After two days of fishing, they got nothing. Finally they ate the last bit of bacon and smoked and burned the last fearful corncake. If they didn’t get anything to eat, they would have to starve.
Immediately Tom volunteered to stay and hold the camp while the remaining two should go miles away to a farmhouse for supplies. Hearing Tom’s suggestion, the two friends gazed at him jokingly. “ There is only one of you-be careful, for bears may appear and keep you company!” Tom didn’t take what they said seriously. Then the two men disappeared down the hill in the known direction of a distant wooden house.
Night came, but the two men did not return. Tom sat close to his companion, the campfire. He lit a cigarette and felt a thousand shadows were about to come towards him. Suddenly he heard the approach of something unknown, rackling the small branches and rustling (使沙沙作响) the dead leaves. Feeling a bit scared, Tom rose slowly to his feet. His cigarette dropped from his mouth and his knees shook with fear. “Hah!” he shouted in a loud voice in the hope of scaring his opponent away. A roar (咆哮) replied and a bear paced into the light of the fire.

1. 词义猜测题。根据划线句子后的“It is a good saying, but life throws at us more serious problems than lemons, doesn’t it What do we do when we lose a family member What do we do when we have been through events that leave us feelings Can any failure be turned into success (这句话很好，但生活给我们带来的问题比柠檬更严重，不是吗？失去亲人时我们该怎么办？当我们经历了让我们有感觉的事情时，我们会怎么做？任何失败都能转化为成功吗？)”可知，作者以谚语引出本文讲述的话题，同时，利用一系列的问题对此进行解释，生活给我们的问题比柠檬严重，任何失败都会转化为成功吗？作者对此产生疑问，进而展开本文的论述。由此可猜测，划线句子应是一个观点“失败能转化为成功”。故选D项。
2. 推理判断题。根据第二段中的“Most of us realize we can learn one or two things from failure.(我们大多数人都意识到我们可以从失败中学到一两件事)”可知，人们都意识到我们可以从失败中学到一两件事，结合尾句“There are a lot we can learn and get from failure if we keep asking good questions on how to do better next time.(我们可以从失败中学到很多东西，如果我们不断问一些好问题，下次如何做得更好)”可知，我们要失败后不断地问自己一些好的问题。由此可知，本段讲述的是我们失败的时候，要积极处理自己的失败。故选D项。
3. 推理判断题。根据第三段中的“Our own suffering often makes us understand others better. (我们自己的苦难常常使我们更好地理解别人)”可知，作者认为，如果我们自己遭遇了不行会让我们更好的理解别人，结合下文中的“If we have been hurt by others because of another person’s poor character, it may improve us to be better persons.(如果我们曾经因为别人的品行不好而受到别人的伤害，这也许会使我们变得更好)”可推断，如果我们受到了别人的伤害，我们会更好的理解其他人，我们从别人对我们的伤害中学到伤害别人不是好的行为，所以我们就不会再去伤害别人。故选A项。
4. 标题归纳题。根据首段中的“Can any failure be turned into success (任何失败都能转化为成功吗？)”可知，作者用提问的方式展开本文的论述，结合下文中作者论述的如何面对失败以及失败给我们带来的好处以及尾段中的“Sometimes only failure brings us better opportunities or greater success.(有时候，只有失败才能给我们带来更好的机会或更大的成功)”可知，有时候，只有失败会带给我们更好的机会或更大的成功，所以本文主要论述的是失败可以创造更多的机会。由此可知，“失败创造更多机会”适合作本文最佳标题。故选B项。

【答案】
My low-carbon life
It’s our duty to protect the environment. Low-carbon life is good for everyone. To help with the environment, I always walk or ride a bike to school instead of taking a car. Besides, I will try to use things that can be recycled and I never forget to turn off the lights when I leave the classroom. I think it’s my duty to live a low-carbon life. And even the simplest activities can make a real difference to the environment. So I suggest we should reuse books as long as possible. And we’d better not spend much money on expensive clothes.
If everyone does something for the environment, I believe the earth will be a better place.
Lower-carbon life, happier life.
【答案】
Tom supported himself upon a tree and observed his unexpected visitor. The bear was obviously a fighter, for the black of his coat had become brown with age. There was confidence in his small, twinkling eyes. Terrified as Tom was, he must save himself. He started running around the campfire, bear chasing after him. He was close to desperation when the tent fell down onto the burning fire, with the bear trapped inside. He then witnessed the burning tent racing in the direction of the lake, disappearing.
Tom breathed a sigh of relief. Maybe it was luck that saved him. Anyway, he was safe now. He rested for a while, rebuilt the fire and waited patiently for his friends. When they came back and saw the tent gone, they asked eagerly what had happened. Tom explained calmly everything as if it had not happened to him. “There is only one of me — and the bear keeps me company!” he said, lighting a cigarette again.
