Have you ever felt that your life (1)_____ completely out of control, as if you were standing in the middle of a storm with no shelter in sight For sixteen-year-old Maya, that feeling had become her everyday companion. Her parents' sudden divorce, her best friend's unexpected move to another city, and the increasing pressure of schoolwork all hit her at once like a wave crashing over a small boat.
She used to be a cheerful girl who (2)_____ laughter wherever she went, but now she barely spoke to anyone. Her grades began to fall rapidly, and her teachers (3)_____ worried about her sudden change in behaviour. Nothing seemed to matter anymore, and she spent most of her afternoons staring blankly at her bedroom ceiling, feeling as if the world had moved on without her.
One day, her science teacher, Mrs. Chen, noticed Maya sitting alone in the empty classroom after school. She sat down beside her and said, "You know, Maya, sometimes when everything (4)_____ impossible, the only thing we can control is our next small step." Those simple words, spoken quietly, planted a tiny seed of hope in Maya's heart that she thought had long since died.
The next morning, Maya decided to take that small step. She began by writing down three things she was grateful for each day, no matter how small or ordinary they seemed. At first, her list (5)_____ ridiculous: "the sun is shining," "I had breakfast," "my shoes are comfortable." But day by day, the list grew longer and more meaningful. She started to notice the beauty she had been blind to for months.
Slowly but surely, Maya's perspective (6)_____. She joined the school's gardening club, where she found peace in digging in the soil and watching seeds grow into flowers. She wrote letters to her friend in the new city, sharing her daily victories and small discoveries. She even began to help younger students who were struggling with the same subjects she had once failed.
Looking back, Maya realised that the hardest part was not the challenges themselves, but the belief that she could not overcome them. She learned that when we (7)_____ our problems quietly alone, they (8)_____ larger than they really are. But when we share them with others or take action, no matter how small, we (9)_____ our own strength and discover that we are far more capable than we ever imagined.
Today, Maya still faces difficulties, just like everyone else. But she no longer fears them. She knows that every storm eventually passes, and that even the darkest night (10)_____ an end. Her experience has taught her the most valuable lesson of all: hope is not something we find; it is something we create, one small step at a time.

Ella had always been a quiet and anxious girl. She would (1)_____ her problems rather than face them, hoping they would simply disappear on their own. But when she started high school, she found that her usual strategy no longer worked. The workload was heavier, the expectations were higher, and the pressure felt unbearable. She knew she could not (2)_____ the growing anxiety inside her any longer.
With her mother's encouragement, Ella decided to join the school's public speaking club. The very thought of standing in front of an audience made her hands sweat and her heart race. However, she was determined to overcome her fear. Every Wednesday afternoon, she would stand before the small group and deliver a short speech. At first, she stumbled over her words and her voice trembled. But with each attempt, her (3)_____ grew a little stronger.
After six months of persistent effort, Ella was asked to represent the school at a city-wide speech competition. She prepared tirelessly, practising in front of her mirror, her dog, and eventually her entire family. On the day of the competition, she took a deep breath and walked onto the stage. She spoke from the heart, and the audience listened in complete silence. When she finished, the applause was thunderous.
Though she did not win first prize, Ella felt deeply (4)_____ of herself. More importantly, she was (5)_____ for the journey that had transformed her from a frightened girl into a confident young woman. She learned that facing our fears, rather than hiding from them, is the first step toward real personal growth.
(1)_____ (2)_____ (3)_____ (4)_____ (5)_____
B
A. curious B. determine C. alone D. stress E. admire
Moving to a new country was never going to be easy, but for fifteen-year-old Daniel, it felt nearly impossible. He had left behind everything familiar: his friends, his school, and even the language he had spoken since birth. Every day felt like a (1)_____ as he tried to understand what his teachers were saying and make sense of the strange new world around him.
Daniel felt completely (2)_____ at first. He ate lunch by himself in the corner of the noisy cafeteria and spent his weekends in his room, missing his old life. His parents noticed his sadness and encouraged him to join the school's photography club, hoping it might help him connect with others who shared his interests.
At the photography club, Daniel met Leo, a friendly boy who was (3)_____ about Daniel's home country. Leo asked endless questions about the food, the festivals, and the daily life there. For the first time since his arrival, Daniel felt truly seen and heard. He and Leo began to spend time together outside of school, exploring the city and taking photographs of everything they saw.
Daniel slowly began to (4)_____ his new life. He learned new words every day, made new friends, and even started to enjoy the cultural differences he had once feared. He still missed his home country, but he no longer felt trapped by his sadness. He had discovered that being brave does not mean being without fear; it means facing that fear and choosing to move forward anyway.
Now Daniel looks forward to each new day with (5)_____ and excitement. He knows that the journey ahead may still have challenges, but he is no longer afraid to face them.
(1)_____ (2)_____ (3)_____ (4)_____ (5)_____

They encouraged him to focus on more "practical" subjects, and Kevin (3)________(eventual) put away his paintbrushes and stopped drawing altogether.
For two long years, Kevin felt something was missing, although he could not (4)________(exact) explain what it was. He did well in his exams and received high marks, but he no longer felt the same joy that had once filled his (5)________(day) life. Something inside him had been silenced.
One afternoon, Kevin's art teacher, Ms. Rivera, noticed him staring (6)________(thought) at a painting on the classroom wall. She handed him a fresh sheet of paper and a pencil. "You don't have to be perfect," she said softly. "Just start."
Kevin hesitated for a long moment, and then he began to sketch. The pencil moved across the paper as if it had a mind of its own. For the first time in years, he felt that familiar spark of (7)________(excite). He realised that his love for art had never really disappeared; it had only been waiting patiently for him to return.
Now Kevin draws every day, and his work has become more (8)________(meaning) than ever before. He has learned that true passion never truly fades; it simply waits for us to remember it.

B. 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。（12分）
At seventeen, Leo had already learned that life was not going to hand him anything easily. He had grown up in a small apartment with his grandmother, who raised him after his parents passed away when he was just a small child. Money was always tight, but his grandmother never complained. She would say, "Leo, the only thing we can control is how hard we try."
When Leo entered his final year of high school, he knew he wanted to attend university more than anything in the world. But the cost of tuition was far beyond what his grandmother could possibly afford. She offered to sell her most precious possession, an old gold ring that had been in the family for generations. Leo refused firmly. He was determined to find another way.
Instead of giving up, Leo worked tirelessly. He took on three part-time jobs: delivering newspapers before dawn, working at a fast-food restaurant after school, and tutoring younger students on weekends. He slept only a few hours each night, but he never missed a single day of school. His teachers admired his determination and offered to write strong recommendation letters for his university applications.
Halfway through the year, disaster struck. Leo's grandmother fell seriously ill and needed expensive medical treatment. Leo had saved a substantial amount of money for his tuition, but he gave it all for her medical bills without any hesitation. His friends said he was foolish, but Leo knew that some things were more important than money.
Word of Leo's situation spread through the community. His neighbours organized a fundraising event, his classmates held a bake sale, and even his teachers contributed. The local newspaper wrote an article about his story. Within a few weeks, enough money was raised to pay for both his grandmother's treatment and his university tuition.
When Leo received his university acceptance letter, he cried tears of joy. He had learned that while we cannot always choose our circumstances, we can always choose our response to them. His grandmother recovered, and she spent many hours proudly telling everyone she met about her grandson's remarkable courage.

D. 阅读下面短文，回答第1—4小题，并按要求续写短文结尾（约35词）。（11分）
Sam was known as the quietest boy in his grade. He never raised his hand in class, never spoke at lunch tables, and never joined any school activities. His classmates had stopped noticing him altogether; he was simply the boy who sat in the back corner of every room, silent and invisible. But Sam had a secret that nobody knew: he wrote beautiful poetry, filling notebook after notebook with words that nobody else would ever read.
The poetry came from a dark place. Sam's father had passed away suddenly the previous year, and Sam had never found the right words to express his grief aloud. He had tried talking to the school counsellor, but the words got stuck in his throat like stones. So he wrote instead. Poetry became his voice, his comfort, and his only true friend in a world that seemed to have forgotten him.
One afternoon, his English teacher, Mrs. Bennett, discovered one of Sam's notebooks when he accidentally left it in the classroom after school. She read a poem about rain that reminded him of his father, and she was deeply moved. The next day, she quietly asked Sam to read one of his poems at the school's annual open-mic night. Sam felt his face burn with embarrassment and fear. He almost refused, but something in Mrs. Bennett's kind eyes convinced him to at least consider it.
For weeks, Sam prepared. He stood in front of his bedroom mirror, reciting his poem again and again. His hands trembled, his voice cracked, and his heart pounded every single time. But he kept trying.
On the night of the open-mic, Sam watched nervously as other students performed. When his name was called, he walked to the stage as if in a dream. The spotlight blinded him, and for a moment he could not speak. Then he thought of his father, closed his eyes, and began.
The words poured out of him like water from a broken dam. He spoke of rain, of grief, of the love that outlasts death. The room was completely silent. When he finished, there was a long moment of stillness, and then the audience rose to their feet in applause. Some students were crying. Others were simply speechless.

参考范文：
Last term, I tried out for the school basketball team but failed. I felt disappointed and wanted to give up. However, my coach told me that failure is not the end, but a chance to grow. I decided to practise harder every morning. I worked on my shooting and passing. Two months later, I tried out again and made it. From this experience, I learned that failure teaches us more than success. It builds our character and makes us stronger. Now I am not afraid to fail because I know every failure brings me one step closer to success.
