It 24 that we were going on a nature 25 and that our instructor paired everyone up with a partner. Guess who my partner turned out to be? It was Elizabeth!

Passage 3 （2020·首都师范大学附属中学高二期中）
Dash of Hope
"Dash" is a symbol which represents everyday we''ve spent alive on earth. Therefore, how you spend your "dash" is important.
Recently I 36 about a little girl named Hope. After learning more about her life，I couldn''t help but feel it was not by coincidence，nor happenstance，that she had been named "Hope". The strong feeling of sympathy and generosity housed in her young heart made a lasting impression on me and countless others. 37 I never had the opportunity to meet her，I wish I had. It seems as though she was wise beyond her tender years and very，very special.
Hope was a twelve-year-old girl who was offered a "wish" in early December 2010 by the "Make-A-Wish" Foundation after being 38 that she had a rare type of bone cancer. However，when she found out that more than 150 children in her area were waiting for their wishes to be granted(实现)，she unselfishly used her wish to 39 that those children have their wishes granted. She also asked it to be done by January 16，2011. Unfortunately， however，the organization informed her that her 40 request could not be granted as the funds(资金) were simply 41 . They calculated that they would need to raise more than one million dollars in thirty days in order to grant her wish. Disappointed，but not discouraged，she turned her disappointment into an enthusiasm that inspired caring 42 to take up helping grant the wishes of the other children, and eventually hers as well. Newspaper columnists and reporters for radio and TV stations shared the story of this caring young girl who had 43 the hearts of so many and as word spread，the community was challenged. Committees were fanned and schools，corporations and various organizations assisted in 44 money to help make Hope''s dream come true.
Her efforts were not in vain as they continue to help others，not only physically，but spiritually and emotionally as well. At the gathering to celebrate her life， "A Celebration of Hope" on January 16， 2011， the 45 was made that they had indeed received donations totaling more than one million dollars. Her wish had been granted!

Passage 8 （2020·青海湟川中学高二期中）
There’s a program for middle schools called Treps that teaches kids about business and product development. The students are given the task to learn to 121 products on their own, and at the end of the program the school gym is 122 up like a trade show where all the kids get to sell the products. They each get a 123 , make signs and dress up a little. The school gym is 124 to the public and attracts a crowd.
Some of the kids there 125 have a crowd at their stand, because the products made by themselves are unique and interesting. But there are some other kids, with 126 that aren’t very good, just don’t stand out, aren’t getting attention. At first, they stand there with a 127 face but later you can see the 128 in their eyes because everyone walks by the stands uninterested. I always think it 129 to visit the stands of those kids, buy something, and 130 them for how hard they must have worked on it. Just the confirmation that someone likes what they make and notices their effort can 131 them. I usually bring $100 to this event merely for this 132 . As the night goes on, 133 they still haven’t sold much, I will send my daughter over there to buy something from them.
The other day, as an education expert, I was 134 with some parents about this. They asked me why I encouraged the kids who made terrible products, saying “ 135 confirmation means they won’t learn anything”. I told them, “These kids know their products aren’t a 136 , but that doesn’t mean they should 137 . It takes courage to 138 there and try to sell their products. If nobody buys anything, or nobody 139 their effort, they will probably quit next time.” Hearing these, all the parents agreed.
A little encouragement can go a long way and sometimes a small lie can be a big 140 in the right direction.

Passage 10 （2020·广东金山中学高二期中）
Leslie Morissette’s son, Graham, was six years old when he was diagnosed with leukemia (白血病).

It’s a really great 174 that gives children the feeling of control, when their world is maybe out of control.
“Every time I can help a child in need, I feel as if Graham is looking 175 ,” Morissette said. “I believe that Graham’s love lives on in the work that I do. And I’m proud and privileged to be able to do it in his honor.”
