A. Replaced. B. Appreciated. C. Improved. D. Developed.

The bridge consists of 100 acres of greenery, and while designed for people, has reconnected wildlife corridors (廊道). The reconstruction added 45 acres of native Gulf Coast prairie (草原) that’ll increase biodiversity in the park. “This project is not just about creating a passage or a bridge.

I think there are many fears that I’ve overcome in my teaching career and I’m sure everyone has as well, but the one that sticks out to me the most was attending university after high school. I think the scariest part of that was meeting all the different types of people, and different people from different cultures, different high schools, and different areas. It was very strange to see that group all mixed together. I wasn’t sure how to approach people and talk to them. Some of the classes were very tough. It was just a huge mess of interacting with people and doing well in school. But I think the best way to approach it is to find similarities that you can connect with people. For example. I really liked basketball and so I tried to hang out with people who liked basketball and other people who enjoyed some of my similar subjects.

My Favourite Traditional Chinese Festival
Ladies and gentlemen,
It is my honor to give a speech on my favorite traditional Chinese Festival, the Spring Festival.
It starts from the late days of the 12th lunar month and lasts till the mid-1st lunar month of the next year. Chinese people attach great importance to Spring Festival Eve, when all family members eat dinner together and enjoy the Spring Festival Gala. As for me, I love the Spring Festival most because during the festival, not only can I set off fireworks, but I can also get lucky money. Besides, it symbolizes unity, prosperity and new hopes for the future.
Hope the excitement of the celebration will reach more people across the world. Thank you for your listening.
第二节
One possible version:
Luis was watching all the things happen. He was incredibly impressed with the quick response from the high school athletes, noting that they did not hesitate to rush towards a potentially dangerous situation to help a stranger. He joined them. They started using their strength to pull the door open, so the lady could be released.
They finally opened the door and helped the woman to safety. The scene was in a mess. The injured woman was moaning and shaking because of pain and fear. Georgia rushed to the nearest medicine shop to buy some bandages for the woman to stop the bleeding. By that time. the police and the first-aid rescue workers were on the scene. The broken car was dealt with properly and the woman was taken to the hospital. She was expected to make a full recovery, and now everyone in town is praising those young men wearing helmets for their heroism!
