When I was about twelve, I headed to a restaurant for dinner with my family. It was winter, and on that night the wind was really blowing hard.
As my mum and I headed to the restaurant from our car, a girl about my age and her mother came up to us. They asked if we had any spare change(零钱). My mum right away asked where they lived. They pointed to an old car in a parking lot across the street. The girl said there were six of them living in that car.
My mum said she had something to do after handing the people a few dollars. She sent me inside the restaurant with my dad and my three siblings(兄弟姐妹). But she didn't come. Later, I found out she had gone home and put all the food in our cupboards into a few bags. Then, she brought that food over to the car and handed the bags to the family. I wasn't there when that happened, but I can only imagine the joy it brought to those people. A few days later, when I actually found out about what she had done, I asked her why she helped those people. She told me that they were not lucky. I remembered the face of that girl who had asked us for change. She was the same age as me, yet we looked so different.
Here I stood, dressed in almost new clothes, headed to eat in a restaurant and then went back home to the bedroom I shared with my younger sister. I remembered thinking the other girl didn't have any food to eat and that she was heading back to a cold car shared with five other people.
After painting this picture in my mind, I understood why my mum had done what she did. I will never forget what she did that night, and how she taught me one of the best lessons I have ever learned.

16、 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。
Long long ago, there was a little prince who was used to having everything he wanted. He was so badly behaved that he wouldn't let anybody have a new toy if he didn't have it first. If any child in the land wanted a new toy, they had to buy two and give one to him. Therefore, the little prince had no friends except for his toys.
One day a magic toymaker, who invented the most wonderful toys, came to the land. The little prince liked his toys so much that he invited him to spend an entire year in the palace, promising him great wealth if he made him a new toy every day. The toymaker set just one condition: "My toys are very special and need an owner who will play with them" he said. "Will you be able to devote a little time to each one every day?" "Of course, I will" the little prince replied impatiently.
From then on, every morning the little prince received a new toy. Every day the toymaker delivered a toy better than the previous ones. The little prince appeared very happy.
But the toy collection kept growing and, after a few weeks there were simply too many toys to play with all of them every day. So, one day the little prince put a few toys to one side, hoping that the toymaker wouldn't notice. However, when it was night time and he was ready to go to bed. The toys that had been put away lined up in front of him and, one by one, demanded their daily playtime. The little prince couldn't get to sleep until well past midnight because he had to play with every single toy.
Next day, tired after all his efforts, the prince slept very late. In the little time left of the day, he had to get to know a new toy and then play with all the others too. Once again, he finished very late and was so tired he could hardly stop yawning (打哈欠).
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Every day was a little bit worse than the one before, with the same amount of time but one extra toy to play with.
……
The children saw the prince, wondering whether the prince would force them to hand over their toys just like before.

The International Federation of Pickleball, with 60 member countries and counties, is working to make sure pickleball will be part of the 2028 Olympic Games in Los Angeles.
"Pickleball comes from tennis, badminton and table tennis," says Hope Tolley, managing director of USA Pickleball. And it uses square paddles (球拍) and a small plastic ball that's similar in size to a tennis ball, but much lighter.
Unlike tennis, you can score only when it's your turn to serve. What you should do is keep the ball in the air, and if your opponent(called the receiver)fails to return the ball over the net, you get the point. If not, you'll end up with a shot that fails to reach the net. Matches can be played in doubles or singles, and games are played to 11 points.
Because the game can vary the intensity-going all out or taking a slower pace-pickleball suits professional athletes and beginners alike. It's a great workout and it's a low-influence sport, so it's easy on players' joints (关节).
People who are really into the sport can join tournaments at various levels. The first World Pickleball Games will be held next summer in Austin, Texas.
A. Here's how the game is played.
B. So be sure to hit with enough force.
C. Make sure you can't stand in wrong position.
D. Playing pickleball can't have any negative impact on players.
E. It's played on a badminton-sized court with a slightly lowered tennis net.
F. If you haven't played it yourself, you've probably at least heard of pickleball.
G. By 2030, pickleball is expected to have as many as 40 million players worldwide.

Speaking two languages deeply affects the brain and changes how the nervous system reacts to sound, and researches have shown that learning a foreign language can strengthen brain power, but a new study suggests that the effects go further to those who begin in middle childhood.
It indicates that people who began learning a foreign language at 10 and were always exposed to the language, meaning they heard and used it in daily life, had improvements in the structure of the brain's white matter compared with people who grew up speaking only one language and did not learn a foreign language.
These "higher levels of structural integrity(完整性)" were in areas responsible for language learning and semantic(语义的)processing, which occurs when the meaning of a word is encoded and related to similar words with similar meaning.
The new findings, published in the National Academy of Sciences on Monday, studied brain scans from 200 subjects(实验者), all around the age of 30, who lived in Britain for at least 13 months. They all started learning English as a foreign language at the age of 10.
Their imaging scans were compared with people of similar age who spoke only English. The study was led by Christos of the University of Kent School of Psychology in Britain.
"Everyday dealing with more than one language benefits specific language-related brain structures by preserving their integrity, and therefore it protects them against deterioration in older age," the study found.
(1)、Who may have stronger brain power according to the text?A、A person who learns English as a foreign language. B、A person who speaks English as a mother language. C、A person who can speak English well at an early age. D、A person who hears and uses English in everyday life.(2)、What can we know from 200 subjects' brain scans?A、The 200 subjects lived in Britain to learn English. B、The 200 subjects studied English at the age of 30. C、The structure of their brains' white matter improved. D、The structure of their brains' white matter disappeared.(3)、What does the underlined word "deterioration" mean in the last paragraph?A、Evolving. B、Reaction. C、Worsening. D、Formation.(4)、What's the text mainly about?A、Speaking two languages affects the brain seriously. B、Speaking two languages changes how the brain works. C、Learning a foreign language can affect people's childhood. D、Learning a foreign language at 10 strengthens brain power.
