Following tips from a tourist guide 15 years ago, Zhao Jiang went to Mahabalipuram, a town, that despite its architectural splendors, golden beach and performing arts, was strictly off the map for Chinese holiday­goers at the time. Then in October, came the news that Chinese President Xi Jinping and Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi would have an informal summit at the same seaside resort in the Indian state of Tamil Nadu.

“I was happy that Tamil Nadu got the chance to host the summit and enjoy the spotlight, and I was proud that what I have learned and am working on has now become well­known，” Zhao, who heads the Tamil language service at China Radio International (CRI), said.

It has been an illuminating journey for Zhao. In the mid­1990s, when she went to study a foreign language at the Communication University of China, she chose her major more on a quirk．

“At that time, the university was offering Bangla, Nepali, Swahili and Tamil as foreign languages. I knew Bangla was spoken in Bangladesh, Nepali in Nepal and Swahili in Tanzania. But I had never heard of Tamil and I had no idea where it was spoken. So I signed up for this unheard­of language，” she said.

Today, she is an expert in Tamil, the predominant language in Tamil Nadu. It is also spoken in Sri Lanka, Singapore and Malaysia. One of the oldest languages in the world with a history of about 2，100 years, its script is formidable, leading to a noted Indian business tycoon calling it “the Great Wall of Tamil”．

Ⅱ. 七选五

(2022·辽宁沈阳高三模拟)We know that choosing a college major can be stressful.   1  ！ Here's what you need to know about college majors before you commit.

Career preparation

Choose a major because it will prepare you for a specific career path or advanced study. Maybe you already know that you want to be a nurse, a physical therapist, or a web developer.   2  . Make sure you're ready for the coursework required for the career of your dreams.

Earning potential

Future earning potential is worth considering. After all, college is such a big investment. The majors that lead to the highest salaries include just about any type of engineering, mathematics, computer science, and economics.   3  . That six­figure salary may not be worth it if you're not happy at the office.

  4 

Some students choose a major simply because they love the subject matter. If your love is philosophy, don't write it off just because you're not sure about what the job market holds for philosophers. Many liberal arts majors provide students with critical thinking skills and writing abilities that are highly valued by employers.

Explore your interests

If you truly have no idea what you want to study, that's okay.   5  . That gives you four semesters to play the field. Make the most of any required general education courses — choose ones that interest you. Exploring your interests will help you find your best fit major — and maybe even your ideal career.

A. Many schools don't require students to declare a major until the second year

B. The most exciting aspect of college life is that it fosters new passions

C. A double major provides you with an understanding of two academic fields

D. However, keep your quality of life in mind, too

E. But have no fear

F. Before you decide, check out the curricula

G. Subjects you love

The Benefits of Learning by Involvement

There is nothing like the pressure of the classroom to make you feel nervous and even hold you back.

Learning by doing, by participating, is very effective. In fact, it 1. is believed (believe) that our athletic skills and language learning skills are located in 2. the same area of the brain and indeed, this is how children learn. Living with a family makes the language familiar, literally 3. bringing (bring) it home to you.

To really appreciate and understand another language, you need 4. to understand (understand) its culture and philosophy. The only way to do that is to put yourself in it. It will be an adventure, 5. where there, undoubtedly, will be some unexpected elements. But it will 6. certainly (certain) be memorable and you'll have plenty of tales to tell on your return.

Your everyday life is lived in that language, 7. whether it is peeling the potatoes or feeding the cat! The exchange is natural and meaningful. It's a big difference from the grammar and structure in classroom 8. textbooks (textbook). Every single interaction or conversation, from buying a bus ticket 9. to making new friends will be in this language. You give yourself no 10. choice (choose) but to learn it and every reason to learn it well!

The Teacher Who Wrestled A Cougar

For days, a cougar (美洲狮) had been edging closer to the small village at the edge of the mountains of southern British Columbia in Canada. Now, after drinking the river's cold water, the cougar bedded down again in a nest of tall grass.

On July 3, the three children in Larrane's day care group were outdoors early, painting bright flowers under the sun. By 10 a．m., it was time to find shade, so Larrane decided they would walk down to the river. “We're going to pick strawberries now，” she announced.

At the age of 44, she had made her dream come true when she turned her home into a day care centre. It had taken hard work to get her certification. So far the centre was operating smoothly. But she always worried about keeping her clients satisfied, as well as being able to care for enough children to make the business pay off. Larrane had known all three children in her care since they were babies. They were shy Mikey, a three­year­old boy; Alleshia, a playful girl aged four; and the group leader Natani, a girl of five years old.

After clearing away the painting supplies and handing each child an empty jar on that July morning, Larrane called for Pal, her one­year­old German sheepdog. Cheering with anticipation, Alleshia and Natani paired off in front. Larrane linked Mikey's hand and said, “Let's go.”

The group made its way over the dusty road and then onto a dirt trail through the trees. The two girls broke into a run through the brown grass at the trail's edge. Larrane and the little one Mikey hurried to keep up.

“OK，” Larrane gave the order after the group climbed down to the sandbank, “let's get in our circle.” She could not risk letting a child wander off. Suddenly a rabbit rushed into the trees and Alleshia jumped up, racing towards the trees. “Come back, Alleshia，” Larrane called. Running after her, she caught up with the child and helped her back to the sandbank.

Larrane sensed the children suddenly went quiet.                                                                        

“Stay behind me！” Larrane screamed as she faced the cougar.                                                                        

【参考范文】

Larrane sensed the children suddenly went quiet. She looked up to see a cougar standing there. Frozen by the sight, her mind raced wildly. She sprang impulsively towards the cougar. Blindly intending to grab its tail, she shifted the target at the last minute and seized the cougar by the neck. As she stumbled backward, one claw slipped onto her right shoulder, grazing her ear. This animal was capable of killing her. Aware now of the danger, the children ran behind Larrane.

“Stay behind me！” Larrane screamed as she faced the cougar. Acting before she could think, she grabbed the cougar's forelegs and pulled them off her. The cougar forced her back into a crouch, making it difficult for her to rise up. Gathering all her strength, Larrane forced herself back upright, still grasping the cougar's thick legs. She shouted, “Pal, do something！” Her aggressive movements and loud shouting probably scared the cougar. Pal gave chase, barking madly. The cougar retreated. She had met the greatest challenge of her life.Her friends and neighbours applauded her for courage.
