26、 Growing up in Venezuela, there was never really much cause to learn English.
For years I knew nothing past “hello,” until I started high school. For five years, I spent two hours a week immersed in understanding the verb “to be”, numbers, colors, and the difference between saying “good evening” and “good night”.
I thought two hours a week was enough time to invest in learning a foreign language. I would always get top marks, and my teachers would regularly praise me.
Even as an adult, I still thought I spoke the language, just by understanding English menus or translating common phrases.
Yep, that used to be me, walking like a queen among everyday Spanish speakers.
“Bring it on, life,” I said.
“I can handle whatever you’ve got; I’m a rock star.” But when I moved to Canada, life hit me so hard that it knocked me down. Years later, I am still recovering.
Living in a new land, with different people, new rules, new weather, a new culture and language, I was no longer a queen.
Did I speak English?
No, not at all.
So, I went back to school, thinking that it was a challenge I would conquer in record time. But the reality was different. English was more like a solid wall in my path.
Even after getting a job, it took all my courage to stop myself from hiding in the washroom during my lunch break, crying, completely overwhelmed (不知所措的) and scared.
Learning English, speaking, listening – it hurt me. Not the language. Not the unkind people, it hurt because I wasn’t good, despite my efforts.
Now, after almost seven years in Canada, I’ve decided not to apologize for my accent, grammar mistakes, or pronunciation. I’m going to chase my dreams and enjoy a beautiful, rich, and fascinating language without being ashamed.
Don’t get me wrong, my brain still screams “Give me a break!” from time to time, but that’s completely natural.
I know it’s going to take a while, but at least now I accept the person I am – not the perfect person I thought I was.

27、 Some people would go through anything just to achieve their dream. Kasia Siwosz is proof.
Born in Poland, Siwosz began playing tennis at seven years old and developed the skills that helped her earn a top-50 ranking among the ITF Junior division (国际网球联会青少年赛). Siwosz wanted to do more with her life than just play tennis, which led her to seek chances that would also allow her to obtain a top education. “There’s no collegiate (大学的) sports in Poland and no culture of sports and academic study there. You can only do one, not both,” Siwosz said.
Her desire to have a quality education led her to America to follow her dream. While Siwosz was talented enough to begin her collegiate tennis career, she could only attend community college because she missed the deadline to apply to four-year schools, mainly due to misinformation provided in her home country of Poland.
When she had earned all her credits and was able to transfer, Siwosz made the decision to attend Baylor in Texas. Her friends from Poland put in a good word for the university, saying that it was a good fit because there were many international players at Baylor. “I thought it would be a good idea, but it really wasn’t what I thought it would be,” Siwosz said. “I wasn’t happy at Baylor. The level of tennis was high, but the academic standards were no match and I just wanted more.”
After one year at Baylor, Siwosz’s luck finally began to change when she made the decision to transfer to Berkeley, which was due in large part to Lee, a former Berkeley student. Lee, who is a keen tennis player himself, met Siwosz four years ago in Texas. “I knew she was unhappy there,” he said. “I saw the opportunity for her to come here.” Siwosz visited Lee in Berkeley. “I ended up loving this place and this school,” Siwosz said. “I came here a lot over the summer, I gave it a shot and I ended up with a Berkeley education and a spot on one of the best college tennis teams in the country.”
【1】Why did Siwosz want to leave her homeland for America?
A.Poland had no culture of sports.
B.Berkeley had always been her dream university.
C.She wanted to play tennis and have a good education.
D.She wanted to improve her tennis skills and get a higher ranking.
【2】Why didn’t Siwosz take Baylor as her first choice when she first arrived in America?
A.The level of tennis in Baylor was not high.
B.It was too late for her to apply to a school like Baylor.
C.Her home country of Poland forbade her to Baylor.
D.Baylor was not suitable for international students.
【3】How did Siwosz feel in Berkeley?
A.She was unhappy there.
B.She had difficulty in keep up with others.
C.She enjoyed studying there.
D.She regretted going there.
【4】What is the main idea of the passage?
A.How Siwosz realized her dream.
B.How Siwosz left Poland.
C.How Siwosz became a tennis player.
D.How Siwosz transferred from Baylor to Berkeley.
28、 When I first met George, I was in my early 30s. My children were just entering school life allowing me to escape from endless housework. At 65, George had recently left work and was seeking a rewarding hobby for his golden years. For both of us, we loved painting and we met at a local TAFE painting class. Thus began a friendship that was to last for 25 years —until the day he died.
George was an energetic man who lived life to the full. He loved his family, his friends, and was loyal and outspoken. As the only male in a painting class full of women, George quite enjoyed it. He ruled the roost（栖息处）and we were his hens. He loved his singular（单一的）role and looked after his hens with the same attention he gave to everything.
He took to painting with passion and devotion. He carefully housed his expensive painting tools a box—a red metal tool box—built to bear hard knocks. Not fancy, but smooth and shiny and very red.
In 2004, I learned that he was very ill and went to visit him. “He's very confused and may not recognize you,” Penny, his daughter, warned. But as I bent over, George opened his eyes —“Bev!” he said, and with surprising strength, held my hand. ”I’ve always been hoping to leave my box to you. I'm afraid I can’t paint anymore, and you have the best talent and are most likely to use it," he said. With tears in my eyes, I accepted the gift on the proviso（附带条件）he could take it back at any time. He never did. He died two days later.
Today I still use much of his equipment kept in the box. As I paint I big personality, generous spirit and unfailing encouragemen. The box is still in good shape, very red. The original shop sticker is still firmly in place although the price has worn off.
But that's all right because to my mind something, like friendship, are beyond price.

29、Take care of your spine（脊柱）
The spine stands at the center of your health, providing your body with structure and support. It also contains your spine cord, a massive collection of nerves conveying electric signals from the rest of your body to your brain【1】
Maintaining good posture( 姿势) is one of the most important things you can do to keep your spine healthy. Proper posture means standing or sitting while keeping your spine straight, except for its natural curves. Posture comes into play even when you are asleep. Sleeping on your side puts less stress on your spine than most other positions. 【2】 . Especially if you work at a desk most of the day, it's important to get up and stretch regularly.
【3】Stretch can help the muscles around your spine relax and allow bones to shift into better arrangement. Strength exercises like pushups(俯卧撑) can also help by strengthening the muscles around your spine. However, don’t overdo the exercise, as repeated motions can strain the muscles around your spine.
Finally, your diet affects the health of your spine because many vitamins are necessary for bones and nerves. In particular, vitamins B and D are essential to keep bones healthy, so you may want to consider taking a supplement.【4】, so it is also helpful to do some of the back exercise outside.
Many of the actions necessary to keep your spine healthy are identical to those used to preserve your health in other ways.【5】
A．However, the latter is also absorbed from sunlight.
B．Staying still for too long can be hard on your back.
C．So protect your back, the rest of the body will benefit.
D．Protecting your spine with yoga is also a necessary step.
E．Try the following exercises to keep your spine more flexible.
F．Exercise is also an important factor in the health of your spine.
G．So you should take the following factors into account to have a healthy spine.

Take Kalasatama, a city being built from scratch on the outskirts (市郊) of Helsinki, Finland. Developers say that by its _________ in 2030, residents will get an average hour of their day back by living there.

"Your life is easier because of living in the most ________ city in the world,” he adds.
However, only 3, 500 people currently live in Kalasatama. By 2030, developers hope to have ________ 25,000 people and created 10,000 jobs.
Cities don't have to be custom-built to be able to unlock this potential. The ancient cliffside city of Matera in southern Italy is working to become one of the first 5G-enabled ________ in Europe.
It believes 5G can help it become a center of ________ tourism, using technology such as Virtual Reality to display the cultural and artistic heritage of the city that was named European Capital of Culture in 2019.
