When Mia Woods retired at 61, she knew she needed a plan. “I was worried about losing my identity as a professional. What else can I be ” she thought.
The year before, she had been told she had a mild memory problem. “I was trying to show myself that I could still think and be creative,” she says. So she decided to do — rather than be — something new: bake a pie every day for a year and give each pie away. “It made me reach out
every day to somebody, so I wouldn’t be alone. And it gave me a routine,” she says.
She baked her first pie and gave it to her 88-year-old aunt, Carol. As a teenager, Mia had
moved in with her aunt’s family when her mother became ill. “They gave me stability... It was the perfect first pie,” she says. She went on giving pies to former colleagues, grocery clerks, even a
homeless man. As word spread, she got known as “the pie lady”.
For more than 30 years, Mia had worked as a city planner. “I’m a planner by nature,
training and profession. What I really liked about it was that planning takes time, chaos, many
different components, puts them all together and makes them into something manageable.” She
sees the same in baking pies: “You take a bunch of ingredients and create something out of them.”
Twelve years on, Mia has continued to invent new projects, including writing a letter a day, and painting pictures of her local sky. She is writing a book about the pie experience. But she has learned more than baking. “What really came out ofit was the understanding that I was someone who could do new things,” she reflects. “And my professional identity wasn’t critical to who I
am.”
“Even now, after I have an encounter with somebody, I think: ‘There’s a person I wish I could give a pie to.’” says Mia.
24 .What was Mia’s worry when she retired
A .Her serious mental problem. B .Her being cut off from others.
C .Having no identity beyond career. D .Having to change her daily routine.
25 .Why did Mia give her first pie to her aunt
A .She had given Mia a home.
B .She had cared for Mia’s mum.
C .She was the oldest in the family.
D .She had built Mia’s stable character.
26 .What do city planning and baking pies have in common according to Mia
A .Both require professional training. B .Both make sense of mixed elements.
C .Both create something out of nothing. D .Both connect people with one another.
27 .What is Mia’s reflection on her experience
A .Everyone in the world deserves a pie.
B .New challenges redefine who we are.
C .Opening up to changes takes courage.
D .Simple acts can bring people together.
C
In an episode of Friends, actor Joey is asked to host a charity show. “A little good deed... plus some TV exposure, now that’s the kind of math Joey likes to do!” he exclaims, while his
friend Phoebe calls it “totally selfish”. This scene captures a common human tendency: our suspicion of do-gooders, especially when they might benefit from their actions.
This instinct is explored in a recent paper on “do-gooder derogation (行善者贬损)”.
Research shows that we often look for someone’s hidden motive, and once found, we may judge
them even more harshly than those who act with obvious self-interest. For instance, in a classic
experiment called the public goods game, participants who contributed the most money to a
shared pool were often criticized just as badly by other players as those who contributed nothing at all.
Psychologist Nichola argues that we are all playing a “status game”, suspicious of anyone
who might be faking virtue to boost their own standing. Studies confirm this, revealing a
phenomenon known as the “tainted altruism effect” (被玷污的利他效应). Imagine your friend
Andy volunteers at a homeless shelter. You later discover he is only doing so to get a date with the manager. Studies suggest we view Andy more negatively than someone who took a job at a coffee shop for the same romantic motive. We are more judgemental ofthe person hiding self-interest
behind a charitable act.
Hafenbr dl, a researcher at the University of Navarra, suggests this judgment stems from a calculation weighing the social rewards someone gets against the cost of their deed. In one
experiment, a resort owner who spent $100,000 cleaning local beaches was considered less moral when he used the act to advertise his business than when he kept it quiet. Interestingly, Hafenbr dl found that people who donated blood or gave to charity for their own sense of self-satisfaction
were considered more moral than those seeking to enhance their reputation.
Perhaps Joey is right: pure altruism may not exist. But personally, I am happy to forgive the “warm glow” that comes from helping others, if it means there is a little more kindness in the
world.
28 .What does the “tainted altruism effect” refer to
A .Judging generous people positively. B .Valuing ordinary jobs over volunteering.
C .Rewarding those who seek social recognition. D .Criticizing charitable acts with hidden motives.
29 .What can be learned from Hafenbr dl’s experiment
A .Publicity lowers moral credit. B .Cost alone decides moral worth.
C .Actions matter more than motives. D .People undervalue environmental acts.
30 .What is the author’s attitude towards the “warm glow” of helping others
A .Tolerant. B .Skeptical. C .Indifferent. D .Critical.
31 .Which of the following is the best title for the text
A .The Disappearance of Pure Altruism
B .The Hidden Cost of Being Kind to Others
C .Why Are We Suspicious of Do-gooders
D .How to Perform Truly Selfless Good Deeds
D
For 19-year-old Marta Bernardino and Sebastiao Mendonca, the forest was the intimate
backdrop of their childhood. “It was a living playground where we built our world,” says the pair. As children growing up near Lisbon, the two always believed that the forest would remain a
constant in their lives. But every year, they saw fires destroy the forest near their homes, leaving
scorched (烧焦) hillsides. Desperate to revive the forest, the two then-high school students set out to create Trovador, a robot capable of reaching and reforesting areas where humans have been
unable to.
In 2023, Bernardino and Mendonca set out to create Trovador. Their first 15 prototypes (原型), built from recycled parts, planted 28 percent faster than humans with a 90 percent survival rate. The two are currently working to improve the efficiency of the robot and hope that their
current prototype is able to handle longer operations on steeper terrains.
The robot is capable of climbing slopes of up to 45 degrees while detecting and avoiding any rock in its way. Trovador is also equipped to carry and plant up to 200 young trees per hour.
Unlike a tractor (拖拉机), it barely makes an indent on the ground thanks to its light movement, preserving pore space for air and water in the soil. A depth camera attached to it maps any
obstacle and allows it to slightly adapt its tracks in real time. It also uses artificial intelligence and sensors to analyze the pH and humidity of the soil, after which Trovador will follow a three-step dig-place-tamp sequence to plant rooted saplings instead of seeds.
Miguel Jeronimo, a landscape architect, is interested in the tool. He says, “Trovador appears to be an innovative project with potential, particularly as it was developed by two young students who turned a low-cost prototype into a possible approach to one of Portugal’s environmental
challenges.” While Jeronimo is hopeful about the success of Trovador, he is equally apprehensive about the robot’s durability in the actual field. He says, “Operational endurance, mobility in dense vegetation and ease of maintenance are areas that need further exploration before the system can be considered ready for broad use.”
32 .Why did the two teenagers start to create Trovador
A .To replace farm tractors. B .To study soil conditions.
C .To play in the nearby forest. D .To restore the burnt forest.
33 .Which of the following can best describe Trovador
A .Slow but reliable. B .Costly but powerful.
C .Elegant and energy-saving. D .Eco-friendly and efficient.
34 .What attitude does Jerónimo have to Trovador
A .Objective. B .Doubtful. C .Uncaring. D .Critical.
35 .What may be the best title for the text
A .Portugal’s Forest Fire Crisis B .The Rise of Agricultural Robots
C .A Robot to Reforest the Unreachable D .Two Teenagers’ Connection with the Forest
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。
The end of the year, with its many holidays, is usually the peak time for shopping. Yet the flood of promotions can be exhausting. 36
In response, Buy Nothing Day, observed annually in November in many countries, seeks to suspend it. Instead of leading people to online stores, it invites them to ask what they truly need
and how they want to celebrate. The fashion industry produces a large share of global waste each year. 37 It demands extra production and higher energy use, and it brings even more
packaging, much of which is plastic that will last for centuries.
38 It encourages small, intentional actions that support personal well-being and the planet, such as slowing down and reconnecting with nature. A short walk outdoors can lower
stress and bring attention back to the present moment. Noticing the wind, the light or the rhythm of a neighborhood helps people feel more grounded and more willing to care for their
surroundings.
Beyond spending less, another step is to care for what we already own. Extending the life of clothes or other everyday objects reduces demand for new products and the energy behind them.
39 Such “re-loving” shifts our focus from accumulation (积累) to appreciation and responsibility.
Buy Nothing Day also highlights creative alternatives to shopping. Instead of buying new
things,people can turn saved paper into cards or cook a meal with whatever is already at home.
40 Gradually, they will turn Buy Nothing Day from a rule of“don’t buy” into an invitation to rediscover what it means to have enough.
A .Holiday shopping adds to this situation.
B .Green living has more benefits than thought.
C .Donating whatever is not needed should come first.
D .Yet Buy Nothing Day isn’t taking away anyone’s joy.
E .Repairing a sweater can become a quiet act of gratitude.
F .In this rush, it’s easy to ignore the environmental cost of consumption.
G .When repeated, such choices can reshape people’s expectations of holidays.

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。
I was in high school before I realized my father had a birth problem. He had a harelip and cleft palate (唇腭裂), but to me, he’d looked the same since the day I was born. I still remember kissing him goodnight as a kid and asking if my nose would go flat after a lifetime of kisses. He smiled and assured me it wouldn’t, but I remembered a twinkle in his eyes. I was sure he was
marveling about a daughter who thought her kisses, not thirty-three operations, had reshaped his face.
My father was kind, patient, thoughtful and loving, my lifelong hero. Never did he let his
appearance hold him back. When rejected for sales work for being “too unattractive”, he delivered
goods by bike and made his own route. When turned away by the army, he became a volunteer. People always accepted his disability calmly when they met his warm smile and positive spirit.
But as a so-called “sophisticated teen”, I grew embarrassed by him, barely tolerating being in the same room with the man who’d let me watch him shave every morning for a decade. The man I once admired now seemed hopelessly old-fashioned, especially compared to my trendy
friends.
One afternoon, my classmates and I were hanging out at my home, laughing and playing games in the living room. Suddenly, Dad walked in, his usual gentle smile on his face. He was
eager to host them, hurrying to the kitchen to pour cold sodas and pop fresh popcorn, chatting
softly with my friends as he handed out the snacks. Just then, one of my classmates tugged my
sleeve and whispered, “What’s wrong with your dad ” His words hit me hard. I felt a sharp sting of shame. I mumbled an excuse, hurried all my classmates out and spoke to Dad in an impatient, cold tone when he looked at me in confusion, my face burning with embarrassment.
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。
Amid the noise of my classmates leaving, I caught the look of hurt in Dad’s eyes.

文章主要讲述了退休城市规划师米娅·伍兹为应对退休后可能失去职业身份认同的焦虑,通过每天烤一个派并送给他人这一日常行动,重新认识自我价值、建立生活秩序并延续创造力的故事。
24 .细节理解题。根据第一段““I was worried about losing my identity as a professional. What else can I be ” she thought. (“我担心自己作为专业人士的身份会丧失。那我还能做些什么
呢?”她这样想。)”可知,她退休时的担忧是失去职业身份,害怕除了职业身份之外自己不知还能成为什么样的人。选项 C“Having no identity beyond career (除了职业之外没有其他身份认同)”与此直接对应。
25 .细节理解题。根据第三段“She baked her first pie and gave it to her 88-year-old aunt, Carol. As a teenager, Mia had moved in with her aunt’s family when her mother became ill. “They gave me stability... It was the perfect first pie,” she says. She went on giving pies to former colleagues, grocery clerks, even a homeless man. As word spread, she got known as “the pie lady”. (她做了第一个馅饼,并送给了她 88 岁的姑妈卡罗尔。在十几岁的时候,米娅曾因母亲生病而搬到了姑妈家。那时的姑妈家给了她一种稳定的环境 把第一个馅饼送给姑妈是最合适的选择。
她继续把馅饼送给以前的同事、杂货店店员,甚至一个无家可归的人。随着消息的传播,她被称为“馅饼女士”。)”可知,米娅年少时因母亲生病而搬去与姨妈一家同住,姨妈家为她提供了稳定的家庭环境。她把第一个派送给姨妈,是因为姨妈曾给予她一个家、一份依靠,这符合选项 A“She had given Mia a home (她曾给米娅一个家)”的表述。
26 .推理判断题。根据第四段““I’m a planner by nature, training and profession. What I really liked about it was that planning takes time, chaos, many different components, puts them all
together and makes them into something manageable.” She sees the same in baking pies: “You
take a bunch of ingredients and create something out of them.”( “我天生就是个规划师,这是我的训练和职业。我真正喜欢的是规划工作,规划需要时间,它要把混乱和众多不同的要素整合起来,使之变得井然有序。”她在烘焙馅饼时也发现了同样的道理:“你将各种食材混合在一起,就能创造出新的成果。”)”可知,通过米娅的类比,两者的共同之处在于都是将纷繁杂乱的不同元素组合成有序、有意义的整体,即选项 B“Both make sense of mixed elements (两者都让混合的元素变得有条理) ”。
27.推理判断题。根据倒数第二段““What really came out ofit was the understanding that I was
someone who could do new things,” she reflects. “And my professional identity wasn’t critical to who I am.”(最重要的是,这件事让我明白自己能够尝试新事物,”她回忆道,“而且我的职业身份并不决定我的本质。”)”可知,她通过尝试新事物认识到自己有能力应对改变,并重新定义了自我价值,不局限于职业身份。这体现了选项 B“New challenges redefine who we are (新挑战重新定义了我们是谁)”的内涵。

这篇文章主要探讨了人们对行善者的怀疑态度,即“行善者贬损”现象,分析了这一现象产生的原因,并通过相关实验进行验证,最后作者表达了自己对帮助他人所带来的“温暖光芒” 的宽容态度。
28 .细节理解题。根据第三段“Studies confirm this, revealing a phenomenon known as the
“tainted altruism effect” (被玷污的利他效应). Imagine your friend Andy volunteers at a
homeless shelter. You later discover he is only doing so to get a date with the manager. Studies
suggest we view Andy more negatively than someone who took a job at a coffee shop for the same romantic motive. We are more judgmental ofthe person hiding self-interest behind a charitable
act(研究证实了这一点,揭示了一种被称为“被玷污的利他效应” 的现象。想象一下,你的朋 友安迪在一家无家可归者收容所做志愿者。你后来发现他这样做只是为了和管理人员约会。研究表明,与出于同样浪漫动机在咖啡店工作的人相比,我们对安迪的看法更消极。我们对在慈善行为背后隐藏私利的人更严厉地批评)”可知,“被玷污的利他效应”指的是批评有隐藏动机的慈善行为。
29 .推理判断题。根据第四段“In one experiment, a resort owner who spent $100,000 cleaning local beaches was considered less moral when he used the act to advertise his business than when he kept it quiet.(在一项实验中,一位花费 10 万美元清理当地海滩的度假村老板,当他用这一行为来宣传自己的生意时,比他不声张时被认为更不道德)”可知,度假村老板宣传自己的生意,导致被认为不道德,可推理出从 Hafenbr dl 的实验中可以得知宣传会降低道德信誉。
30 .推理判断题。根据最后一段“But personally, I am happy to forgive the “warm glow” that
comes from helping others, if it means there is a little more kindness in the world(但就我个人而
言,如果这意味着世界上多一点善良,我很乐意原谅帮助他人所带来的“温暖光芒”)”可知,作者乐意原谅帮助他人所带来的“温暖光芒”,可推理出作者对帮助他人所带来的“温暖光芒”持宽容态度。
31 .主旨大意题。根据第一段“This scene captures a common human tendency: our suspicion of
do-gooders, especially when they might benefit from their actions.(这一场景捕捉到了人类的一
种常见倾向:我们对行善者的怀疑,尤其是当他们可能从自己的行为中受益时)” 、第三段
“Studies confirm this, revealing a phenomenon known as the “tainted altruism effect” (被玷污的
利他效应). Imagine your friend Andy volunteers at a homeless shelter. You later discover he is
only doing so to get a date with the manager. Studies suggest we view Andy more negatively than someone who took a job at a coffee shop for the same romantic motive. We are more judgmental
of the person hiding self-interest behind a charitable act(研究证实了这一点,揭示了一种被称为 “被玷污的利他效应” 的现象。想象一下,你的朋友安迪在一家无家可归者收容所做志愿者。你后来发现他这样做只是为了和管理人员约会。研究表明,与出于同样浪漫动机在咖啡店工作的人相比,我们对安迪的看法更消极。我们对在慈善行为背后隐藏私利的人有更为苛刻的评价)”以及最后一段“But personally, I am happy to forgive the “warm glow” that comes from
helping others, if it means there is a little more kindness in the world(但就我个人而言,如果这意味着世界上多一点善良,我很乐意原谅帮助他人所带来的“温暖光芒”)”可知,文章主要探讨了人们对行善者的怀疑态度,即“行善者贬损”现象,分析了这一现象产生的原因,并通过相关实验进行验证。所以 C 项“Why Are We Suspicious of Do-gooders (为什么我们对行善者持怀疑态度?)”是本文最佳标题。

主要介绍 19 岁的玛尔塔·贝尔纳迪诺和塞巴斯蒂昂·门东萨为恢复被火灾破坏的森林,制造出名为 Trovador 的机器人,该机器人具有环保、高效等特点,同时也面临一些有待改进之处。
32.细节理解题。根据第一段“But every year, they saw fires destroy the forest near their homes, leaving scorched (烧焦) hillsides. Desperate to revive the forest, the two then - high school
students set out to create Trovador(但每年,他们都看到大火摧毁了他们家附近的森林,留下烧焦的山坡。为了恢复森林, 这两名当时还是高中生的学生开始制造 Trovador)”可知,这两名青少年制造 Trovador 是为了恢复被烧毁的森林。
33.推理判断题。根据第二段“Their first 15 prototypes (原型), built from recycled parts, planted 28 percent faster than humans with a 90 percent survival rate.(他们最初的 15 个原型机由回收零件制成,种植速度比人类快 28%,成活率达到 90%)”以及第三段“Unlike a tractor (拖拉机), it barely makes an indent on the ground thanks to its light movement, preserving pore space for air
and water in the soil.(与拖拉机不同,由于它移动轻便,几乎不会在地面上留下凹痕,为土壤
中的空气和水保留了孔隙空间)”可知,Trovador 不仅种植效率高,而且对土壤环境友好。
34.推理判断题。根据最后一段“Miguel Jeronimo, a landscape architect, is interested in the tool. He says, “Trovador appears to be an innovative project with potential, particularly as it was
developed by two young students who turned a low-cost prototype into a possible approach to one of Portugal’s environmental challenges.” While Jeronimo is hopeful about the success of
Trovador, he is equally apprehensive about the robot’s durability in the actual field.(景观设计师
米格尔 热罗尼莫对这款工具十分感兴趣。他表示:“特罗瓦多是一个极具潜力的创新项目,尤其难得的是,它由两名年轻学生研发而成。二人将一个低成本的原型装置,转化为能够应对葡萄牙其中一项环境难题的可行方案。” 热罗尼莫既对 “特罗瓦多” 项目的前景充满期待,同时也十分担忧这款机器人在真实野外环境中的耐用性)”可知,杰罗尼莫既看到了 Trovador的潜力,又指出其存在的问题,态度是客观的。
35 .主旨大意题。根据第一段“For 19-year-old Marta Bernardino and Sebastiao Mendonca, the forest was the intimate backdrop of their childhood. “It was a living playground where we built
our world,” says the pair. As children growing up near Lisbon, the two always believed that the
forest would remain a constant in their lives. But every year, they saw fires destroy the forest near their homes, leaving scorched (烧焦) hillsides. Desperate to revive the forest, the two then-high
school students set out to create Trovador, a robot capable of reaching and reforesting areas where humans have been unable to.(19 岁的玛尔塔 贝尔纳迪诺与塞巴斯蒂昂 门东萨自幼便与森林相伴,森林是他们童年最亲切的背景。 两人说道:“森林是一座鲜活的乐园,我们在那里构筑了属于自己的世界。” 作为在里斯本郊外长大的孩子,他们一直以为这片森林会永远陪伴在身边。可年复一年,火灾不断吞噬着家附近的森林,只留下一片片被烧焦的山坡。 为了让森林重焕生机,当时还在读高中的二人决心研发出特罗瓦多机器人。这款机器人能够抵达人类难以涉足的区域,并完成植树造林工作。)”文章主要围绕玛尔塔·贝尔纳迪诺和塞巴斯蒂昂·门东萨制造 Trovador机器人来恢复难以到达地区的森林展开,C 选项“一个为难以到达之地重新造林的机器人”为最佳标题。

36 .根据上文“The end of the year, with its many holidays, is usually the peak time for shopping.
Yet the flood of promotions can be exhausting.(每年年末,伴随着众多节日的来临,通常就是购物的旺季。然而,促销活动的大量涌现却可能会让人感到疲惫不堪)”可知,第一段末尾促销泛滥使人疲惫;F 项“在这种抢购热潮中,人们容易忽视消费带来的环境代价”承接上文购物热潮,引出下文无消费日主题。故选 F。
37 .根据上文“In response, Buy Nothing Day, observed annually in November in many countries, seeks to suspend it. Instead of leading people to online stores, it invites them to ask what they truly need and how they want to celebrate. The fashion industry produces a large share of global waste each year.(对此,每年 11 月在许多国家都会举行的“不消费日”活动旨在让人们停止这种消费行为。它并非引导人们前往线上商店购物,而是鼓励他们思考自己真正需要的东西以及如何进行庆祝。每年,时尚行业都会产生大量全球性的废弃物)”以及后文“It demands extra
production and higher energy use, and it brings even more packaging, much of which is plastic
that will last for centuries.(这需要更多的生产投入和更高的能源消耗,并且还会带来更多的包装材料,其中大部分是塑料,这些塑料将会长期存在)”可知,前文指出时尚产业制造大量垃圾;A 项“假日购物加剧了这一状况” ,指代前文资源浪费问题,衔接后文过度生产、能源消耗等危害。故选 A。
38 .根据后文“It encourages small, intentional actions that support personal well-being and the
planet, such as slowing down and reconnecting with nature. A short walk outdoors can lower
stress and bring attention back to the present moment. Noticing the wind, the light or the rhythm
of a neighborhood helps people feel more grounded and more willing to care for their
surroundings.(它鼓励人们采取一些小而有目的的行动,这些行动既能促进个人的身心健康,又能保护地球环境,比如放慢脚步、重新与大自然建立联系。在户外进行短暂的散步就能减轻压力,并让人们将注意力重新集中到当下。留意风声、光线或所在社区的节奏,能让人感觉更加踏实,也更愿意去呵护周围的环境)”以及上段讲购物的环境弊端;D 项“但无消费日 并非剥夺人们的快乐”转折,引出下文它带来治愈、亲近自然等积极意义。故选 D。
39 .根据上文“Beyond spending less, another step is to care for what we already own. Extending the life of clothes or other everyday objects reduces demand for new products and the energy
behind them.(除了减少消费之外,另一个可行的措施是善加利用我们现有的物品。延长衣物或其他日常用品的使用寿命,能够降低对新产品的需求以及相关产品的能源消耗)”以及后文“Such “re-loving” shifts our focus from accumulation (积累) to appreciation and
responsibility.(这种“重新去爱” 的行为将我们的注意力从积累的层面转移到了欣赏和责任的
层面)”可知,本段核心爱护已有物品、延长用品寿命;E 项“修补毛衣可以成为一种安静的感恩之举” ,举例呼应复用旧物的理念,衔接后文“重新爱惜物品” 。故选 E。
40 .根据上文“Buy Nothing Day also highlights creative alternatives to shopping. Instead of
buying new things, people can turn saved paper into cards or cook a meal with whatever is already at home.(“不购物日”还强调了替代购物的创新方式。人们可以将节省下来的纸张制作成贺卡,或者利用家中现有的食材烹饪一顿饭菜)”可知,前文列举节日替代购物的创意做法;G 项“长期坚持,这类选择会重塑人们对节日的期待” ,总结做法并说明长远影响,收束段落。故选G。

66 .Dear Mark,
Thanks for sharing the disqualified photo case with me. In my view, disqualifying the AI-generated photo is both reasonable and necessary.
Photography, as an art form, embodies the photographer’s painstaking efforts in
composition, lighting adjustment, and on-site shooting, capturing the essence of a real-world
moment. AI-generated images, despite their visual appeal, lack the human touch, the emotional resonance, and the genuine creative process that traditional photography offers.
Allowing such works in a competition would undermine the hard work of sincere
participants and distort the very nature of the contest. Thus, this decision upholds the fairness and integrity of the photography competition.
Best wishes,
Li Hua
67.
Amid the noise of my classmates leaving, I caught the look of hurt in Dad’s eyes. He froze by the coffee table, the half-full popcorn bowl still held in his hand, his usual warm smile fading away completely. He never scolded me, just murmured an apology for disturbing us, cleaned up the leftover snacks quietly and walked back to his room. I shut myself in my bedroom, and warm old memories flooded in: how he played with me as a kid, how he said my kisses were the best
gift in the world. Shame quickly swallowed my foolish embarrassment.
I knew I had to make it right. I walked straight to Dad’s room, threw myself into his arms
and stammered out my sincere apology. I told him loudly that he was always my greatest hero,
and I was the one who was wrong. Dad patted my back gently, with tears in his eyes. That day I
learned that real beauty lives in a loving heart, and I will never forget the lesson that unconditional
love is the most precious thing in life.
