I told my kids I was so mad that I had to roll my window up so that I wouldn't keep yelling at this guy. Then, I stopped and looked back. I had moved up the 12 or so inches at his “suggestion”, while he hadn't moved an inch. Suddenly, I felt sympathy for him. He must have been suffering in some way. As my kids and I slowly made our way to the pick-up window to pay for our order, I had an idea.
“I heard how rude that man was to you, and I wanted to apologize to you for having to put up with that. He isn't worth paying for,” the cashier said to me. “My kids support me in doing that,” I answered the cashier, adding that hate cannot drive out hate.

As we get older. our facial skin thins, fat dissolves (溶解) and gravity pulls everything downward. Not everyone is pleased about this. One of Brown's friends didn't like watching time fly past. She couldn't stand watching herself age 50 years in 15 seconds—could life really go by that fast Brown cried herself after using the aging effect on her own young daughter. She won't live to see her daughter get that old. she pointed out.
For other people, the “Time Travel” filter brought up unexpected positive feelings Actor Jonathan Bennett shared a video saying his own filtered face recalled happy memories of his late father. Nicole Loehle. a 24-year-old in New Jersey, tested the effect with her boyfriend. It gave her a new viewpoint, she said, she could imagine the relationship lasting into their old age.
There's no correct way to age. But it's important to remember that no one can stop time or undo its effects. “I keep trying to view aging as a gift,” Brown said. “Some people don't get to age, unluckily.”
28. What can people do with the “Time Travel” filter

D
In Oceanside, a coastal suburb about 40 miles north of San Diego, the palm trees wave and the temperature is almost perfect. Teenagers watch surfers ride glassy waves. Every day it feels like the most perfect summer day. There is just one problem: The sand is disappearing.
While many visitors, and even lifelong Californians in the industrial state, might see wide areas of sand as part of the state's natural beauty, the reality is that over decades, the coast has become a highly engineered wonder. Millions of cubic yards of sand dug from other parts has been added in the last century to build the postcard-worthy beach like the one in Santa Monica.
But a range of forces have shrunk beaches all along Califormia's coastline. Califormia could lose as much as 75% of its beaches by 2100, given the sea level rise related to climate change. Over time, beach sand gets swept up into the water. Some of it moves towards other beaches. Besides, dams and concrete canals have reduced the amount of river sediment (沉淀物) flowing downstream that could help fill beaches as a supplement (补充) . If the shoreline were allowed to evolve without human intervention, the beaches could continue to exist as we know them. But in California, the development in many places along the coast has created a hard barrier, disturbing that natural evolution.
Over the years, local governments worked together on a few major sand supplement Projects. But those, still, have proved to be fleeting solutions. “Everything we do is a short-term fix,” said Gary Griggers, a professor specializing in coastal science. In recent years, as the sand's disappcarance grew more extreme, longtime Oceanside residents formed an organization called Save Occanside Sand. A beach town cannot exist without a beach.
Leaders here launched some international design competitions, aiming at finding new ways of getting and keeping sand on the city's beaches.
“It's really a race. I think there's absolutely nothing we can do to hold back the Pacific Ocean,” said Gary Griggers.
32. What does the author mean by mentioning the engineered wonder
A. The beach is artificially maintained. B. California is an industrial state.
C. It's the perfect holiday vacation. D. Most visitors are engineers.
33. What is a reason for the crisis of beaches along California's coastline
A. Sand supplement has been added.
B. Sea level rise results in climate change.
C. Much river sediment is flowing downstream.
D. Human intervention blocks the natural evolution.
34. What does the underlined word “fleeting” in Paragraph 4 mean
A. Efficient. B. Sustainable. C. Temporary. D. Complex.
35. Which of the following was done to preserve Califomian beaches
A. Dams and canals were built. B. Design contests were held.
C. Man-made beaches were expanded. D. Sand-themed postcards were published.

Up until the 1980s, people in many countries regularly followed in their parents footsteps by working in the family business or joining the same profession as them. In your grandparents' time. there was the prospect of doing the same job from graduation until retirement. 36 Most people now have no intention of following in their parents' footsteps or even staying at one job for very long.
In fact, planning to work in the same field for your entire working life just isn't practical anymore. One reason for this is technology. The skills you have now are unlikely to remain relevant. 37 And then what will you do Work hard Win the lottery Hope for the best You might be lucky. But most of us today have to look beyond the little box called “career”.
If you think you can work eight hours a day and build a career, think again. It is hardly a recipe for great career success. 38 Keep doing this, you can become a specialist in something one day. You have a chance to choose to build a career, rather than being told to stay or to go.
39 You may have to go back to the classroom and be retrained to qualify to work in another field. It is entirely your choice to learn, or to be forced to learn.
In short, lifetime security from one employer is no longer certain. 40 It is up to you to decide what you can do and how well you can do it.
A. Are you ready for this
B. How times have changed!
C. They will probably be out of date very soon
D. The truth is that you are the boss of your career
E. These skills should have brought you a nice, comfortable life
F. What if your job disappears after working for 10 years in the field!
G. Instead, you'd better keep looking for smarter ways to do your work

Tang Yan gave up a promising career in 1992 to save an almost lost art—that of “Beijing silk figurine” (北京绢人) . In 1997, she established a studio with five other enthusiasts. Then they spent 56 entire year making several figurines, only to find there was no market for their products.

Having nice things can make you feel good, but at the end of the day, what truly matters is that we have people we love and care about in our lives.
Still, when someone is asked to sacrifice (牺牲) something in order to be with their loved ones in good health, it can be hard. That was the situation one man was put in two decades ago when his wife was diagnosed (诊断) with cancer.
Years ago, Wesley Ryan learned his wife, Laura, had been diagnosed with cancer. The medical bills were piling up, and he knew in order to continue making ends meet, he would have to sell his beloved car.
Wesley loved that car and even nicknamed it Christine. However, Laura meant more to him, and Wesley wanted her to continue getting the care she needed. So he sold his car and handed over the keys.
“I know how much it broke his heart when seeing that car drive away from him,” his son, Jake, wrote online. “It's a day that I'll never forget.” Jake and his sister, Jen, knew they wanted to help their dad reunite with the car he'd loved so much. And over the years, the siblings (兄妹) had saved up enough money. So they started an online search and surprisingly, they were able to track down the old car online.
Actually, the man who bought the car found out about Wesley's story and the meaning behind the beloved vehicle by accident. Moved by the sacrifice one man had made for his family and how his family stepped up to repay him in the sweetest way possible, he soon got in touch with Jake, who purchased it as soon as possible. And after careful consideration, Jake and Jeni decided to surprise their dad in a nearby parking lot. Moreover, Laura, cancer-free for 13 years at the time, joined them for the big moment.
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。
Finally, the day came when Wesley reunited with his beloved car. Wesley's hands trembled as he reached out to confirm that it was real.

One possible version:
Dear Jack,
Delighted to know that you're interested in Chinese culture, especially Tang poetry, I'm writing to offer you some relevant information.
As you know, poetry is one of the most important literary forms in China. As the golden age of poems, the Tang Dynasty produced many outstanding poets, among whom Li Bai, Du Fu and Bai Juyi were the best-known in history. When it comes to learning a poem, you'd better grasp the meaning firstly, and then try to recite the whole poem. If you choose right methods and work hard, you will make great progress.
Welcome to China and I'm looking forward to hearing your views on Tang poems.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节(25分)
Possible version:
Finally, the day came when Wesley reunited with his beloved car. As Jake led him closer to the familiar sound of an engine rumbling, Wesley still had no idea what surprise his family had in store for him. When they turned the corner, Wesley froze in shock. Parked before him was his beloved Christine, gleaming under the sunlight. His heart raced, and tears welled up in his eyes. He couldn't believe his eyes. Could it really be his car
Wesley's hands trembled as he reached out to confirm that it was real. He ran his hands on the car, memories of the time he had spent with the car flooding back. Overwhelmed with emotions, he turned to his family. Seeing the joy on her husband's face, Laura stepped forward and wrapped her arms around him, feeling the weight of the emotions that had been building up over the years. Wesley's eyes were filled with gratitude. He knew that no matter what life threw at them, they would always be there for each other. And that was what truly mattered.
