She knew she was different from her peers because she could not hear. But a painting class in primary school opened for her a door to creativity and a way of expression.“I still remember my first mural, which was to help a kindergarten to design and paint its wall,” Li says. “The project made me realize how happy I was immersing myself into painting.”To pursue her passion for art, Li went to study advertising design at a vocational and technical school. “Painting brushes can help me create a colorful world in my imagination, telling my thoughts on paper, instead of through voices,” Li said.Graduating from college in 2005, Li got a job as a typist at a public institute. But she could not communicate well with her other colleagues. Her husband understood how she felt because he lost his hearing due to medication when he was 1 year old. He is also an art lover. In March 2016, under her husband’s suggestion, Li quit her job and joined her husband’s company, which specializes in 3D wall and ground paintings.Wall painting is a demanding job because it requires people to work outdoors, whether in extremely cold or hot weather.

Now Li has an apprentice who just graduated from college. While coaching the newcomer, Li is exploring her own style and hopes to become an illustrator and open her own exhibition one day.“They’re energetic young people with a passion to create new things, and you can feel that in their paintings,” one of their clients said. “They’re also a professional, dedicated team, often working late into the night on the designs for us.”Li hopes that their stories can encourage more hearing-impaired people to build their own careers and achieve their goals, regardless of how tough it may be.；4.

Historic buildings, works of art, traditions, and even local languages are disappearing at an increasingly rapid rate. Yale is leading a new organization, the Global Consortium for the Preservation of Cultural Heritage (GCPCH), to work on the preservation of cultural heritage. The first official meeting of the organization took place in Milan, Italy, which gathered 36 international university officials and experts from around the world to determine next steps for advancing GCPCH’s mission (使命). During the meeting, experts and officials determined that the mission of GCPCH is to share knowledge and to promote relationships between the parties that seek to protect various forms of cultural heritage worldwide. More specifically, GCPCH will create a map of education programs and field experiences, research projects, and funding sources. The two-day meeting of GCPCH was hosted by Bocconi University. It kicked off with an address by UNESCO Director—General Irina Bokova. “Knowledge-sharing gets all stakeholders (有利益关系者)involved at a global level,”said Bokova in her inspiring speech. “Together we need to strengthen the networks and build more bridges between all actors,”Stefano Baia Curioni, vice-president of ASK Research Center of Bocconi University, commented on what an honor it was for Bocconi to host the meeting. “It is with great pleasure that we gather such a set of leaders who bring so many valuable points of view on challenges related to the preservation of cultural heritage,” Baia Curioni said. “We know how important the work of this body is to advancing our collective work, and are honored to support such efforts.”；8.

It can help you process what you’ve been through and assist you as you envision a path forward.Why does a writing intervention work?    13    In fact, narrating the story of an ongoing anxiety “frees up” cognitive resources. When you write down the emotions associated with a traumatic experience, you may be changing the way it is organized in the brain. You are then able to detach from the emotion, making it easier for you to talk about and process the event.However, for most people, the thought of acknowledging emotions and admitting that there’s something wrong with us is difficult. This is because expressing emotions can bring up feelings of guilt and shame.    14    That is what sets journaling apart. This is between you and your journal — you don’t have to share it with anyone unless, of course, you choose to.If you’re interested in trying out writing as a tool for healing, start your writing by setting a timer for ten minutes.    15    Think of one object in your home that signifies a moment for you. See it in full color. Feel the weight of it. Use all your senses. Now, write about that object and see how large its meaning can become.    16    How you heal from trauma can be different from person to person as well. It all depends on what works best for you. Remember, one size does not fit all. Writing may not work for everyone, but you won’t know if you don’t try.B．Of course, expressive writing is hardly a panacea (灵丹妙药).C．Also, seeking help for emotional stress is often seen as a sign of weakness.D．It may seem abnormal that writing about negative experiences has a positive effect.E．Once you have a better handle on your problems, you can move forward and get on with life.F．It is writing from your heart and mind and about the emotion associated with a certain event.G．Let your mind go to the detailed, specific moments to get to the feelings and truth of your experience. 三、完形填空Sommaroy is a small island in northern Norway.

I had gone out to visit my friend living in another county, but unfortunately I got stuck and was unable to drive further. I fully realized how dangerous this would be as there was not enough gas left in the truck for me to get through the deadly snowstorm. The situation got even worse in such a place without any houses in sight. I stayed in my truck, calling for help anxiously but the weak signal didn’t help me get connected. There was nothing I could do but wait. At midnight, there came a knock outside the truck. I opened the door and surprisingly found an old lady standing in the storm with just a thin coat, clearly not enough to survive the snowstorm. I invited her to get inside my truck at once. She told me in a weak voice that her name was Mary and her car broke down. She had walked a long way before finding my truck. Misfortune never came alone. Soon, we realized the air conditioner burned all the fuel in my truck and it was getting colder and colder inside the truck. Mary closed her eyes without saying a word, shaking in the corner. Considering Mary’s condition, I decided to take action right now. Luckily, the GPS of my truck still worked. And with the help of GPS, I noticed that a school was nearby. I decided to take shelter in the school. Since Mary was too weak to move, I carried her on my back, heading to the school. After ten minutes’ struggle in the snow, we finally arrived, but found the school gate locked. 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。I hesitated about what I should do.  The next morning, a policeman drove by and found the gate broken.

 42. Mary was still shivering and seemed to be in a worse condition. I had no choice but to find a way to break into the school. Fortunately, with the help of a snow shovel lying next to the gate, I managed to make it. I found the nearest classroom and laid Mary on one of the benches. I also found a pile of unused blankets and used them to wrap Mary up. I felt satisfied that I had done everything that I could to help her.He came in to investigate. When he entered the classroom, he found me and Mary still asleep, wrapped in blankets. He woke us up and asked if we needed any help. I gratefully accepted his offer to drive us to the nearest gas station. I filled up my truck and made sure it had enough fuel to get me to my destination safely. As I waved goodbye to the policeman, I couldn’t help but think about how lucky I was to have Mary’s unexpected appearance that night. Without her, I might not have been able to survive the dangerous snowstorm.
