一I live in the keepers lodge (屋舍) in London Zoo. Its a big shared house on site where eight zookeepers can care for the animals overnight. Its an experience like no other, and one every zookeeper wants.  Every morning I wake up at 7 when our gibbon (长臂猿), Jimmy, starts singing loudly. I take a coffee into the garden and chat to the hawks (老鹰) and the ibis (鹮) in the aviary (鸟舍) behind the house. We fed our sloth (树懒), Edward, when his mother couldnt, and built him a jungle gym (攀爬架) from broom handles. Beanie, a newborn giant anteater (食蚁兽), lived with us, too.  The best time is sunset, when the gates have closed. Ill take a walk around and hear Bhanu, our male lion, roar and watch the ringtail lemurs (环尾狐猴) play with each other; it seems theyre enjoying themselves. A keeper will say they dont have favorite animals, but its a lie. Mine are small monkeys called emperor tamarins (皇绒猴). I helped a pair breed (孕育) a family of 10 when I worked in the rainforest house. Coronavirus has changed everything. On March 21, the zoo closed to the public for the first time since World War II, so its always quiet now. I miss answering visitors questions and showing off our animals. Weve hidden food for the meerkats (狐蒙) to find and puzzles for the squirrel monkeys (松鼠猴).  We wear personal protective equipment to prepare food and activities. Colds have passed between humans and primates (灵长类); were unsure if coronavirus can, but its important to be safe. Living and working here is an unusual existence but, at 42, it cant get any better. I have animals in my back garden that are threatened or extinct in the wild. Even though were in lockdown, I can stretch my legs and have a chat with a lion or an okapi (狓，一种非洲鹿). Its a dream job. I couldnt imagine doing anything else. Summary writing 概要写作 Please write a summary of the article in about 60 words. 二I am retiring from teaching. This is my exit card. Teachers learn just as much from students as students learn from us. These are a few of the things that I learned in my career. Roger was physically and mentally delayed. About once a month, we would have a dance in our classroom. Roger was out of his element when it came to asking a girl to dance with him. Once, I noticed that Roger was slow dancing with Leah, one of the more popular girls. He had the biggest smile on his face. The next day, when Roger left my classroom to work with his support teacher, I spoke to my class. That simple act of including him in a slow dance was such a classy move. At our next dance, Roger asked Leah and every girl in the class to dance. No one turned him down. Leah taught me about the kindness of a simple act and its profound (深刻的) effect. It was Serena who demonstrated (展示) bravery. Serena was our plays narrator (旁白). She was scared she would forget her lines. “If you do,” I advised, “pause, stare at the audience and take time to remember. The audience will think its part of the play.” Halfway through the opening night, Serena forgot her lines. She stared out at the 300 people gathered in the gym. After what seemed like forever, Serena remembered. After the performance, she burst into tears backstage (在后台), thinking she had let everybody down. When our principal came back to congratulate our cast (全体演员), she turned to Serena and said her pause worked so well. Little did she know about Serenas little act of bravery. Teachers spend hours making lessons to teach skills and knowledge. We adjust lessons, keep the good and throw out the bad. A good teacher listens to and learns from students and often it has nothing to do with the curriculum (课程).Summary writing 概要写作 Please write a summary of the article in about 60 words. 三I cant remember if I was 9 or 10 years old, but I do remember that it was the last day of 4-H camp. I was looking in the mirror and checking my face for bruises (瘀伤). The day before, for some silly reason, I had gotten into a fistfight with another boy. It didnt take long for the bigger boys to pull us apart and call it a draw, but in truth, I had lost. My head was still sore from a couple of the blows the other boy had landed. We hadnt talked since the fight either but only stared coldly at each other from across the room. Still, I was in a good mood this morning because I knew my Mom was bringing some of her homemade pizzas as a treat for my brother, me and our friends. Soon I saw her walking up the sidewalk toward the steps of our cabin (小屋). She had been bringing these pizzas to us every 4-H camp for years now. I saw her smile as my brother and his friends all grabbed the big cut pieces. She made sure, though, to save the last two pieces for me. I thanked her with a smile and started to eat when I saw my fistfight opponent standing off to the side by himself. At that moment, something moved me. I walked over to him and gave him one of the pieces. We talked, laughed and ate. And for some reason unknown to me at the time, the pizza tasted better than ever before. I can see now what moved my heart. A little miracle (不可思议的事) was working inside of me moving me to forgive, to give and to love. And I am so happy that I followed that guidance. Scottish writer Henry Drummond wrote: “You will find as you look back upon your life that the moments when you have truly lived are the moments when you have done things in the spirit of love.” May you really live then. May you forgive, give and love. And may your pizza always taste delicious. Summary writing 概要写作 Please write a summary of the article in about 60 words. 四Whats your favorite time of the year? I like different seasons for different reasons. But my favorite season is fall. Growing up, I spent a lot of time with my dad and his folks on their farm in the Blue Ridge Mountains of North Carolina. In summer, I would swim in the creek (小溪), chase lightning bugs (萤火虫) and go fishing with my dad. In winter, Id spend hours sliding on a hill and throwing snowballs at cows, and then come inside to warm my feet by the fire. In spring, my grandmother and I would go hunting for trees, herbs (药草) and wildflowers. In fall, the weather was usually perfect, warm enough to play in the creek by day, cold enough at night to cozily curl up and listen while my grandmother or my dad told me stories. But my best fall memory begins with rain when I was 6. We drove to the farm in a light rain. The next day, when the clouds parted, I went out to see a sight I will never forget. I yelled and my grandmother came running. “Look!” I shouted, pointing at what looked to me like flames. “The mountains are on fire!” She looked. Then she laughed. “Thats not fire, child,” she said. “Thats just fall.” I wish you couldve seen it. Those leaves left their mark on my soul. Fall became my forever favorite season. Not just for its colors, but for other things, too. Books we read. Talks we shared. Good times we spent together. We did all those things in every season. But in fall, the days grew shorter. And longer evenings gave us more time for things that meant the most. I remember the smell of my grandmothers stew (炖菜) cooking in a cast iron pot (铸铁锅) on her wood stove. She made it with deer meat my dad had hunted. It was delicious.  That was long ago, but I recall it clearly. Some memories are gifts that stay with us forever. When seasons change, they remind us that life keeps moving. We recall good times gone by, give thanks for the present and dare to look forward to what lies ahead. Fall will always be my favorite time of the year. But the best season to celebrate life is any time, any place, every chance were givenSummary writing 概要写作  Please write a summary of the article in about 60 words. 参考答案：一Being a zookeeper is a dream job for me. I work and live in a zoo where I can care for a variety of animals. I love interacting with the lovely animals and the visitors. The zoo has experienced some changes due to the pandemic, but I still enjoy living and working in the zoo. An exit card is a written student response to a question posed at the end of a class. Students give their exit cards to the teacher before they leave the classroom, and we use them as a quick check to see what they really remembered from the lesson. 二 Im going to retire, and Id like to hand in my exit card to show what I have learned in my teaching career. Here it is. As a teacher, I learned a lot from my students. Leah taught me that a small act of kindness can have a deep effect, and Serena showed me her bravery. In conclusion, I believe in addition to teaching students, teachers can also learn from them.三At a camp when I was young, I had a fistfight with a boy, and then we refused to talk with each other. The next day, my mother brought us her homemade pizzas, and I shared a piece with the boy. I realize now that it was the kindness inside of me that guided me to share and forgive. I hope we all can love, give and forgive.四Growing up with my family on a farm, I had great fun doing different activities in different seasons. Among all four seasons, fall is my forever favorite. I love fall for its beautiful colors and the longer evenings, which mean more good times spent with family. Grandmothers stew is another fall memory that lingers in my mind. Life keeps moving along as the seasons change. We should celebrate life whenever we have the chance.
