Most passwords are still weak. A study by Specops found that 98.5% of real-world
passwords are objectively weak. Only 1.5% of passwords made it into the “strong” zone, defined as being at least 15 characters long and using two or more character types. Only 3.3% of
passwords were longer than 15 characters. This means that most passwords can be cracked quickly using inexpensive powerful computer tools.
The most common passwords were eight characters long with just two character types, such as “Summer22” or “Office99”. About 8% of all passwords fell into this dangerously basic zone.
Close behind were eight-character passwords with only one character type, most often letters alone, and in many cases lowercase letters only. These accounted for another 7.6% of all
passwords.
When password length is held constant, security depends largely on the variety of characters used. The table below illustrates this effect.
Character set Size of set Total combinations How long to crack
15 characters password of lowercase only (a-z) 26 2615~1. 68×1021 Easily cracked with powerful tools in days or weeks
15 characters password of lowercase + uppercase (a-z, A-Z) 52 5215~2. 53×1025 Much harder to crack, but still possible over time
15 characters password of alphanumeric (a-z, A-Z, 0-9) 62 6215~7. 70×1026 Very strong passwords for most practical use cases
15 characters password of all printable characters (a-z, A-Z, 0-9, symbols) 94 9415~2. 25×1029 Nearly impossible to crack
In addition to character variety, password length also plays an important role in security.
Using passwords of 16 to 20 characters with at least two different character types-letters, numbers, or symbols-pushes the number of possible combinations into the trillions. Even high- end cracking farms would take years or centuries to break them. In reality, however, weak passwords are still
very common. As Darren James, Senior Product Manager at Specops, notes, “Many users are still low-hanging fruit for online thieves, who can crack their passwords in seconds.”
1 ．What percentage of passwords are the most common type
A ．1.5%. B ．3.3%. C ．7.6%. D ．8%.
2 ．What is the main factor the table compares
A ．The size of set. B ．Use of letters.
C ．The cracking method. D ．Password length.
3 ．Why does the author quote Darren James
A ．To introduce his company. B ．To warn the online thieves.
C ．To stress the worrying reality. D ．To criticize users for poor choices.

Dear Mom,
It’s me, Faisal Abdullah Malik, your son from Pakistan, who crossed the border for a heart transplant. You saved my life a decade ago by making a decision that only a mother as
extraordinary as you could make.
On 26 December 2014, both our lives changed forever. Karthick, your beloved son, was brought to Tirupur Government Hospital, near Coimbatore, in southern India, after a tragic road accident. He was later transferred to G. Kuppusamy Naidu Memorial (GKNM) Hospital. When the doctors declared him brain dead, you had to face the unthinkable, holding his hand, saying your silent goodbyes.
In the depths ofthat unimaginable grief, Mom, you made a choice that speaks of boundless courage and selflessness. You not only gave me Karthick’s heart but also donated five other
organs, giving the gift of life to six strangers. You made this difficult decision without ever questioning the race, religion, or nationality. Your decision was solely about saving lives.
Today, as a father of two growing children, I can truly understand the magnitude of your
sacrifice. I can only imagine the storm of emotions you must have battled. Did you question if it was the right decision Did you fear it was too much to bear And yet, in the darkest hour of your life, you chose life for others. You chose hope. I know Karthick must be so proud of you, as am I, Mom. I am alive today because of your strength.
Tearing apart the political divide, I have longed to meet you, Mom. I have travelled to
Chennai several times since receiving Karthick’s heart, always hoping to somehow find a way to Coimbatore. But my medical visa restricts me from travelling outside Chennai. You might be
wondering why I don’t even call you Names of donors and recipients are kept confidential, and I feel helpless.
Allah tells us in The Qur’an, “Whoever saves a life, it is as if they saved all of humanity.” Mom, you embody it. I love you, Mom, forever and always.
Yours always,
Faisal

A study led by Professor Michael T. French shows that there is a strong connection between high school grades and how much money people earn later in life. The research, which was
published in the Eastern Economic Journal, found that each additional point on a high school
grade point average (GPA) can increase a person’s earnings by about 12% for men and 14% for women when they become adults.
Previous research has already shown that higher levels of education are connected to higher earnings, but the exact relationship between high school grades and income wasn’t well
understood. French notes that while good grades are important for getting into college, this study is the first to show their impact on how much money people make later in life.
The study used information from the National Longitudinal Survey of Adolescent Health, looking at the records, demographics (人口特征) , and backgrounds of over 10, 000 people. Their educational background and income were checked when the participants were between 24 and 34 years old, which was about ten years after they finished high school.
The study looked at data for men and women separately and found that women generally have higher high school GPAs, but men earn more money each year. However, no matter the
gender, a higher GPA makes it twice as likely for someone to finish college.
It’s also interesting to note that without considering GPA and other performance measures, students from disadvantaged backgrounds seem to have lower levels of education compared to
their peers (同龄人) . However, when these factors are included, these groups of students achieve
higher levels of education if they have similar high school GPAs to their peers. This could be because students with good grades, regardless of their initial socioeconomic status, are more motivated to go to college.
By understanding the importance of high school performance, teachers and counselors (辅导员) can help students see how it affects both their short-term goals like getting into college and their long-term goals like how much they’ll earn as adults. The findings ofthe research are
important for policymakers and educators who want to help students succeed.
8 ．What is the main value of French’s study
A ．Proving the value of higher education. B ．Measuring GPA’s effect on future income.
C ．Finding women get higher grades than men. D ．Using a large national survey for research.
9 ．What is paragraph 4 intended to do
A ．To question the reliability of the data. B ．To stress the great importance of college.
C ．To focus on the issue of gender inequality. D ．To present two key findings ofthe study.
10 ．What is suggested about disadvantaged students with good grades
A ．They lack the drive to attend college. B ．Their GPAs should be assessed differently.
C．They can achieve educational success equally. D．Their family background still holds them back.
11 ．What can be the best title for the text
A ．The Gender Gap in Grades and Income B ．Financial Background Affects Achievement
C ．High School Grades matter for Future Earnings D ．A Study on Education Equality and Career Success
D
Poet and Harvard Professor Henry Wadsworth Longfellow famously said, “Music is the universal language of mankind.” A new Harvard study suggests he may have been right.
The study conducted by a research team found that people around the world could identify lullabies (摇篮曲), dance songs, and comforting songs — regardless of the songs’ cultural origin — after hearing just a 14-second clip (片段). The finding suggests that not only is music deeply rooted in human nature, but that some types of songs break cultural boundaries.
The findings are based on a wide-reaching experiment in which 750 online participants in
60 countries listened to brief clips of songs collected from nearly 90 small societies around the world, including hunter-gatherers and some special farmers. Participants then answered six
questions, rating each clip according to whether they believed the song was used for dancing,
calming a baby, treating illness, or expressing love. Two additional uses — mourning (哀悼) the dead and telling a story — were included as controls.
The data showed that despite participants’ unfamiliarity with the cultures, the random
sampling of each song, and the short duration of the samples, people were able to reliably infer the songs’ functions, and that their ratings were consistent across the world.
The findings ran counter to expert expectations. The team had also asked professionals,
including performers, composers, psychologists, and scientists about whether they believed people would be able to identify the song types. Their answer was no. And not only that, but they
predicted that people’s responses will be inconsistent with one another. “That’s not what we found,” the researchers said.
The researchers also wanted to know whether listeners were recognizing certain
non-musical characteristics of the songs. To test that, the team conducted a second study. This time, they asked listeners about a number of contextual and musical features, ranging from the gender of the singers to the rhythm of the song.
When data from the two studies were combined, the results showed that songs of the same function shared similar characteristics — lullabies, for example, tended to be slower and simpler than dance music — suggesting that something about musical characteristics crosses cultural
boundaries.
12 ．What did the participants do in the first study
A ．They distinguished functions of the songs.
B ．They identified the cultural origins ofthe songs.
C ．They recognized the non-musical characteristics of the songs.
D ．They sorted the songs according to the gender of the singers.
13 ．What does the underlined part “ran counter to” in paragraph 5 probably mean
A ．Were equal to. B ．Were similar to.
C ．Were superior to. D ．Were opposite to.
14 ．Why did the researchers carry out the second study
A ．To test the musical knowledge of a wider audience.
B ．To collect more diverse songs from various cultures.
C ．To confirm the surprising results from the first one.
D ．To explore the underlying reasons behind the findings.
15 ．What can we learn from the two studies
A ．Listeners recognize music by its rhythm. B ．Something about music might be universal.
C ．Dance music is usually slower and simpler. D ．Cultural similarities lead to similar musical features.

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。
During the journey of achieving success, everyone often encounters obstacles that test their
determination. Adversity is an unavoidable part of life, but the ability to manage it sets individuals apart. This ability is often referred to as Adversity Quotient (AQ). ____16____ While IQ and EQ focus on cognitive and emotional abilities, AQ focuses on one’s capacity to bounce back from
failure. Fortunately, researchers suggest that your AQ is not fixed and can be strengthened through several key strategies.Cultivate a growth mindset
A growth mindset is the belief that your abilities can be developed through dedication and hard work. Instead of seeing challenges as unbeatable barriers, you should view them as chances to improve. 17 . By focusing on learning and perseverance, individuals can significantly enhance their Adversity Quotient. This shift in thinking allows people to see themselves as active participants in their growth rather than passive victims.
18
Having a strong support network is crucial in times of adversity. Surrounding yourself with
positive individuals can provide encouragement and guidance. Sharing experiences and looking for support from others who have faced similar challenges can help in building resilience and
enhancing your adaptability. Knowing you are not alone often provides the extra strength needed to keep moving forward.Learn from every setback
Every failure presents an opportunity for learning and growth. 19 . Reflecting on
past experiences and identifying areas for improvement can contribute to the development of your resilience. This habit prevents individuals from being frozen by the fear of making mistakes again.
20 . With the right mindset, strong external support, and a habit of reflecting on setbacks, anyone can navigate life’s storms and emerge stronger than before. Resilience, after all, is not about never falling, but about how quickly you get back up.
A ．Lean on a reliable community
B ．Expand your social connection
C ．Focusing on the negative side of a crisis is a natural tendency
D ．This internal perspective acts as a guide through hardship
E ．High AQ individuals actively draw lessons from their failures
F ．It serves as a practical tool to evaluate one’s future potential
G ．Embracing these shifts in attitude will lead to lasting growth:

My dad is 68 and on a fixed income. He is too to ask for help, but I know money is tight. Yesterday, I went grocery shopping with him. He spent twenty minutes
everything in his head, choosing generic brands and items back — doing that math my generation doesn’t have to do anymore.
At checkout, his card . He wasn’t even surprised; he just quietly asked the cashier to remove items until the total worked. The woman behind us in line, who didn’t look at all, suddenly and said, “Ring it all up on mine.”
My dad refused. But the woman . He refused harder, his face turning slightly red. She looked him in the eye and said, “Sir, someone did this for my family when I was 7
years old. I remember how it made my dad feel to be unable to provide. But I also
remember how we ate that week. Let me pay it forward. You can pay me back by doing the same for someone else when you are ”
She paid $83 for his groceries and to give her name. She just remarked that his
turn would come and left. My dad cried in the car. Faced with numerous hardships, he never
in his life, yet that stranger’s silent understanding finally broke through his defenses.
I’m going to remember this. Next time I see someone change at checkout, I’m
going to be that for them. Kindness, I realized, is a chain that should never stop moving.

第二节(共 10 小题；每小题 1.5 分，满分 15 分)
阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容(1个单词)或括号内单词的正确形式。
A Latin translation of The Tao Te Ching, 36 (forget) in the British Library for more than 300 years, has recently been rediscovered and published through the efforts of Misha Tadd, a scholar at Nankai University.
Tadd says, “Compared with The Analects of Confucius, which 37 (root) in the
traditions and rules of the Spring and Autumn Period (770-476 BC), The Tao Te Ching does not involve specific names, places, 38 social systems.” This quality allows it to go beyond
cultural boundaries and speak directly to universal human concerns.
Tadd’s connection with The Tao Te Ching began at the age of 14, when he came 39
an English edition in a small-town library in the United States. That chance encounter sparked 40 one-of-a-kind interest in Chinese culture.
Years later, while 41 (study) a Latin translation of The Republic by Plato, Tadd
wondered if The Tao Te Ching could also be translated into Latin. His search eventually led him to the British Library, 42 he discovered a Latin manuscript of the text, translated by early missionaries. He discovered parts of the manuscript were faded and 43 (complete), and it was not until 2022 that he obtained a full digital scan of the work. He spent a long time
transcribing, comparing, and annotating the text word by word. “It requires enduring 44 (patient),” Tadd says.
The thought system of The Tao Te Ching is grounded in China, but its interpretation and influence are now 45 (true) global.

第二节 (满分 25 分)
47 ．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。
At twenty-four, I moved to America, a massive 11,000 kilometers away from my
homeland. The initial excitement of a new start soon faded, replaced by the harsh reality of fitting into an unfamiliar environment. Since I worked from home, my world was reduced to the four
walls of my small apartment and a glowing laptop screen. I spent my days in video meetings
where people spoke a language that was still a bit too fast for me to fully grasp. When the screens went dark, the silence of the rooms seemed to echo my own growing sense of displacement. I was physically in a new country, but mentally, I was still searching for a place to land.
Desperate to break this suffocating (令人窒息的) isolation, I signed up as a volunteer at a local animal shelter. My supervisor, a kind woman named Sarah, introduced me to the residents. In the farthest corner of the cat section, she stopped before a small cage. “This is Luna,” she
whispered. “She was found abandoned in a rainy alley. She’s terrified of everything.”
Luna was a small, grey-and-white cat with large, lonely green eyes. Whenever I
approached, she would cower (畏缩) in the corner, her tiny body shaking at the slightest sound. Sarah told me that my only task was to help Luna feel safe again. For the first two weeks, I sat outside her cage for hours every day. I brought my laptop and worked there, or I would speak to her softly about the home I missed, describing the busy streets and the scent of my mother’s
cooking. I wanted to comfort her, but the invisible wall between us remained.
One stormy afternoon, a sudden crash of thunder shook the shelter’s roof. The lights
flickered, and the animals began to cry out in fear. I looked at Luna, who trembled more than ever, her breath coming in quick, tiny gasps (喘气) as she tried to hide behind a small wooden box in
her cage.
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。
I opened the cage door and sat quietly beside her.
Luna’s progress soon began to change me as well.

peers.(然而，当把这些因素考虑在内时，如果这些学生的高中 GPA 与同龄人相似，他们就能获得更高的教育水平。)”可知，成绩好的弱势学生同样可以取得学业上的成功。故选 C 项。
11 ．主旨大意题。通读全文，尤其是第一段中的“A study led by Professor Michael T. French shows that there is a strong connection between high school grades and how much money people earn later in life.(迈克尔·T·弗伦奇教授领导的一项研究表明，高中成绩与人们日后的收入之间存在密切联系。)”可知，文章主要说明高中成绩对未来收入很重要，标题“High School
Grades Matter for Future Earnings(高中成绩对未来收入很重要)”直接点明了文章探讨的高中成绩与收入的核心因果关联，适合作为最佳标题。故选 C 项。
12 ．A 13 ．D 14 ．D 15 ．B
本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了哈佛大学的一项新研究表明，尽管文化背景不同，但人们能识别出不同功能歌曲的共性，音乐可能有共性。
12 ．细节理解题。根据第三段中“Participants then answered six questions, rating each clip
according to whether they believed the song was used for dancing, calming a baby, treating
illness, or expressing love.(参与者随后回答了六个问题，根据他们认为歌曲是用于跳舞、安抚婴儿、治疗疾病还是表达爱意，对每个片段进行评分)”可知，在第一个研究中，参与者要区分歌曲的功能。故选 A。
13 ．词句猜测题。根据第四段“The data showed that despite participants’ unfamiliarity with the cultures, the random sampling of each song, and the short duration of the samples, people were
able to reliably infer the songs ’ functions, and that their ratings were consistent across the
world.(数据显示，尽管参与者对这些文化并不熟悉，每首歌曲都是随机选取的，且样本持续时间很短，但人们仍能够可靠地推断出歌曲的功能，而且他们的评分在全球范围内是一致的)” 、第五段中“The findings ran counter to expert expectations. The team had also asked
professionals, including performers, composers, psychologists, and scientists about whether they
believed people would be able to identify the song types. Their answer was no. And not only that, but they predicted that people’s responses will be inconsistent with one another. “That’s not what we found,” the researchers said.(这一发现 ran counter to 专家们的预期。研究团队还询问了包括表演者、作曲家、心理学家和科学家在内的专业人士，他们是否认为人们能够识别出歌曲类型。他们的回答是否定的。不仅如此，他们还预测人们的回答会相互不一致。“这并非我
们的发现，”研究人员说道)”可知，研究结果与专家预期相反，所以 ran counter to 意思是“与 相反” 。故选 D。
14 ．细节理解题。根据第六段中“The researchers also wanted to know whether listeners were
recognizing certain non-musical characteristics of the songs. To test that, the team conducted a
second study.(研究人员还想知道听众是否通过歌曲的某些非音乐特征来识别。为了验证这一点，团队开展了第二项研究)”可知，研究人员进行第二项研究是为了探索研究结果背后的潜在原因。故选 D。
15 ．推理判断题。根据第一段中“Poet and Harvard Professor Henry Wadsworth Longfellow
famously said, “Music is the universal language of mankind.” A new Harvard study suggests he
may have been right.(诗人、哈佛大学教授亨利·沃兹沃思·朗费罗曾说过一句名言：“音乐是人类通用的语言。”哈佛大学的一项新研究表明，他可能是对的)”以及最后一段中“When data from the two studies were combined, the results showed that songs of the same function shared
similar characteristics — lullabies, for example, tended to be slower and simpler than dance music
— suggesting that something about musical characteristics crosses cultural boundaries.(当两项研究的数据结合起来时，结果显示，功能相同的歌曲具有相似的特征——例如，摇篮曲往往比舞曲更慢、更简单——这表明音乐特征的一些方面跨越了文化界限)”可知，这两项研究告诉我们音乐的一些方面可能是普遍的。故选 B。

本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了在追求成功的道路上，逆境商数（AQ）的重要性以及如何通过培养成长型思维、依靠可靠团体、从失败中学习等策略来提高 AQ。
16．上文“This ability is often referred to as Adversity Quotient (AQ).(这种能力通常被称为逆境商数（AQ）)”引出逆商 AQ 这一概念。空后“While IQ and EQ focus on cognitive and emotional abilities, AQ focuses on one’s capacity to bounce back from failure.(虽然智商和情商侧重认知与情感能力，但逆商侧重人从失败中恢复过来、重新振作的能力)”对比 IQ、EQ 与 AQ 的不同。空处承接上文，继续介绍 AQ 的作用。选项 F“It serves as a practical tool to evaluate one’s future potential(它是一种评估一个人未来潜力的实用工具)”符合语境。F 选项中的“It”指代前文的 “AQ” ，进一步阐述了 AQ 的作用，与后文内容相呼应，符合语境。故选 F。
17 ．上文“Instead of seeing challenges as unbeatable barriers, you should view them as chances to improve.(不要把挑战看作是不可战胜的障碍，而应该把它们看作是改进的机会)”阐述了应如何看待挑战。空后“By focusing on learning and perseverance, individuals can significantly
enhance their Adversity Quotient.(通过专注于学习和坚持，个人可以显著提高他们的逆境商数)”说明采取正确看待挑战的方式后带来的结果。空处承接上文，需说明这种看待挑战的内部视角的作用。选项 D“This internal perspective acts as a guide through hardship(这种内部视角在困难中起到指引作用)”符合语境。D 选项中的“This internal perspective”指代前文把挑战看作改进机会的这种看待方式，说明了这种视角在应对困难时的作用，与后文通过这种方式提高逆境商数的内容相呼应，逻辑连贯。故选 D。
18 ．后文“Having a strong support network is crucial in times of adversity. Surrounding yourself with positive individuals can provide encouragement and guidance.(在逆境中，拥有一个强大的支持网络是至关重要的。与积极的人在一起可以提供鼓励和指导)”强调了拥有强大支持网络的重要性。空处作为段落主题句，应概括这一核心内容。选项 A“Lean on a reliable
community(依靠一个可靠的团体)”符合语境。A 选项直接点明了要依靠可靠的团体，与后文提到的拥有强大支持网络以及与积极的人在一起等内容相契合，能够很好地概括段落主旨。故选 A。
19．上文“Every failure presents an opportunity for learning and growth.(每一次失败都是学习和成长的机会)”表明失败具有积极意义。空后“Reflecting on past experiences and identifying
areas for improvement can contribute to the development of your resilience.(反思过去的经历并 找出需要改进的地方有助于培养你的韧性)”说明反思失败对培养韧性的作用。空处承接上文，需说明高逆商的人在面对失败时的做法。选项 E“High AQ individuals actively draw lessons
from their failures(高逆商的人会积极从失败中吸取教训)”符合语境。E 选项中的“High AQ
individuals”与上下文讨论的逆商相关，且说明了高逆商的人会积极从失败中学习，与后文反思失败培养韧性的内容相呼应，进一步阐述了面对失败时的正确做法。故选 E。
20．上文分别从培养成长型思维、依靠可靠团体、从失败中学习等方面阐述了提高逆商的方法。空后“With the right mindset, strong external support, and a habit of reflecting on setbacks,
anyone can navigate life’s storms and emerge stronger than before.(有了正确的心态、强大的外部支持和反思挫折的习惯，任何人都能驾驭生活的风暴，比以前更强大)”总结了采取这些方法后的积极结果。空处承接上文，需说明接受这些态度转变带来的影响。选项 G“Embracing these shifts in attitude will lead to lasting growth(接受这些态度的转变将带来持久的成长)”符
合语境。G 选项中的“these shifts in attitude” 指代前文提到的培养成长型思维等态度的转变，说明了接受这些转变会带来持久的成长，与后文能够驾驭生活风暴、变得更强大的内容相呼应，逻辑合理。故选 G。

36．考查非谓语动词。句意：一部尘封在大英图书馆 300 多年的《道德经》拉丁文译本，近日在南开大学学者米沙·塔德的努力下被重新发现并出版。名词 translation 与动词 forget 之间为被动关系，需用过去分词作后置定语，故填 forgotten。
37 ．考查动词时态语态。句意：塔德说：“与植根于春秋时期（公元前 770-476 年）传统和礼制的《论语》不同，《道德经》不涉及具体的姓名、地点或社会制度。”“be rooted in”为固定搭配，意为“植根于，源于”，句子描述客观事实，需用一般现在时的被动语态，主语 which指代 The Analects of Confucius ，为单数，故填 is rooted。
38．考查连词。句意：塔德说：“与植根于春秋时期（公元前 770-476 年）传统和礼制的《论语》不同，《道德经》不涉及具体的姓名、地点或社会制度。”否定句中，并列成分用 or 连接，此处连接 names, places 和 social systems ，符合语义逻辑，故填 or。

42．考查定语从句关系副词。句意：他的搜索最终把他带到了大英图书馆，在那里他发现了这部著作的拉丁文手稿，由早期传教士翻译而成。先行词为 the British Library ，指地点，关系词在定语从句中作地点状语，需用关系副词 where 引导，故填 where。
43 ．考查形容词。句意：他发现手稿的部分内容已经褪色且不完整，直到 2022 年他才获得了这部作品的完整数字扫描件。根据前文“faded”及语境可知，此处表示“不完整的”，complete的否定形式是 incomplete ，意为“不完整的” ，符合语境，故填 incomplete。

46 ．Possible Version
Traditional Culture in the Digital Age
In the digital age, traditional Chinese culture is experiencing a new form of preservation.
For example, the Palace Museum uses digital technology to document each cultural relic in detail, allowing people to explore them on virtual screens. This not only lets them “live forever” digitally but also conveys the brilliance of Chinese civilization. Through such technology, we can explore restored ancient relics at any time.
Digital tools thus bridge the past and the future of Chinese culture. They make cultural
resources easier to access and more engaging for the public. By combining technology with
respect for tradition, I believe we can ensure that traditional culture continues to live.
47 ．例文
I opened the cage door and sat quietly beside her. I didn’t reach out, but simply leaned
against the wall, humming a soft tune from my childhood against the sound of the rain lashing the windows. I expected to wait a long time, yet to my great surprise, I soon felt a faint, warm
pressure against my knee. Luna had crept out from the shadows, her emerald eyes fixed on mine. With a trembling heart, I tentatively stroked her soft fur. She didn’t run; instead, she let out a tiny, shaky purr. In that small, shared space, I realized I had finally gained her trust, and the cold knot of loneliness in my chest began to dissolve.
Luna’s progress soon began to change me as well. Watching her transform from a terrified stray into a confident companion gave me a new perspective. If Luna could adapt to her new
environment, I realized I could do the same. Inspired by her bravery, I began to step out of my
shell, joining other volunteers for lunch and sharing stories about my culture. My once- quiet
apartment was no longer a cage, but a home filled with warmth. I finally understood that a sense of belonging isn’t something you find on a map; it’s something you build through connection, one small step at a time.
