2． My mother used to take me to my grandparents' in Belgium during the school holidays.While I would play chess with my grandfather，he would tell me stories about growing up，falling in love，and travelling around the world.
I didn't realize the importance of preserving memories until my grandfather passed away，which ultimately changed my outlook on remembering our loved ones and the stories we share.I thought about solutions to help other people record the precious memories for those they love—before it's too late.So I began matching ghostwriters （代筆人） to clients to help them write a book as smoothly and beautifully as possible，and Story Terrace was born.
Since then，we have explored the power of stories and their ability to connect us with our past and make sense of the present.It has been documented that increased family connection is significantly linked to less loneliness.Learning more about one's family history，however，has been linked to boosting emotional health，increasing compassion and providing a deeper sense of cultures and traditions.
What we have found through our own research is that so many of us have missed out on the opportunity to explore our origins.56 percent of Brits agreed that much of their family history is lost because they are no longer able to speak with the person who knows the most about it.A further 51 percent expressed regret as they wished they could tell their younger self to document their family's life story，feeling that most of it had been forgotten.But when it comes to telling these stories，many don't know where to begin.
We have seen numerous times when people come to us with random journal entries and notes from over the years，and these can be developed into a wonderful work of art that can be passed down for generations to come.
Half of the projects we see at StoryTerrace are heritage stories，with family occupying a dominant theme for most stories.Alongside this，common themes we see are of course love，overcoming challenges，settling in new surroundings and so on.However，family is a thread that always ties these together.
（1）What does Story Terrace do？
A．It boosts the mood of your family members.
B．It gives treatment to people with mental illness.
C．It links people from different cultures together.
D．It helps turn your beloved one's stories into a book.
（2）What does the author intend to show by listing the numbers in paragraph 4？
A．Why StoryTerrace matters.
B．How StoryTerrace functions.
C．What StoryTerrace focuses on.
D．Where StoryTerrace beings your story.
（3）What can you infer about Story Terrace from the last paragraph？
A．It is part of the national heritage.
B．Its stories are mostly about family.
C．It dominates half of the market.
D．Its stories gain much popularity.
（4）What is the best title for the text？
A．Family Stories Worth Telling
B．Create Your Own Story Books
C．Documents of Family History
D．Preserve Memories with StoryTerrace組卷：9引用：3難度：0.3 -
3．Sherry Gao is pouring coffee made from single-origin beans，hoping that her Mandarin Coffee Stand in the city of Pasadenawill，California introduces you to your new favorite coffee and turns your preconceptions about Chinese coffee beans upside down.
Much of the Western world imports its coffee from Africa and South America.But Gao hopes that throwing light on Yunnan-sourced coffee could expose customers to the coffee-producing region and help to break down prejudice against the beans，which for decades，until only a few years ago，were primarily used for instant products.
"We wanted to highlight Chinese coffee because a lot of people never had Chinese coffee before，" Gao said. "Some have the mindset that it's bad or it's cheap，but that's not the case anymore.It's been changing so much over the last decade."
Recent experimentation with processing，such as the addition of fruit or sugarcane molasses during the production，is leading Yunnan's coffee to more flavorful results. "Every time a new product comes in，it tastes better than the last one，" Gao said.
Farmers in China have grown tea for more than 3，000 years，but coffee has been grown there for only about a century in small quantities，with an uptick in the 1980s with government involvement.And the turn of the century and the 2010s saw a sharp growth with international corporations investing in the region's crops，initially for use in instant coffee.
But in the last 10 to 15 years，tastes and demand for specialty and high-grade coffees emerged，especially from local growers and shops.The domestic demand for China-grown coffee has risen so dramatically that Gao says it's now much more expensive.
To further connect with the community，Gao hopes to one day host classes for interactive how-to events.After all，she says，the Yunnan coffee tastes excellent when made in one's own kitchen with a pour-over system and she hopes it's only a matter of time before home specialty coffee enthusiasts catch on too.
（1）What's a misunderstanding of Chinese coffee beans？
A．They are of poor quality.
B．They have limited producing areas.
C．They have a mild taste.
D．They are used for flavored coffee.
（2）What does the underlined word "uptick" in paragraph 5 mean？
A．Output.
B．Increase.
C．Option.
D．Investment.
（3）What does Sherry Gao expect to do in future？
A．Offer community members coffee for free.
B．Buy a pour-over system for her shop.
C．Teach people to make Chinese coffee at home.
D．Keep up with home specialty coffee fans.
（4）In which section of a newspaper may this text appear？
A．Entertainment.
B．Health.
C．Education.
D．Business.組卷：6引用：2難度：0.5

9． I had been working in a game reserve （野生動(dòng)物保護(hù)區(qū)） in South Africa for many years.Though a part of me longed for the busy familiarity of Paris，I knew my life was in South Africa.
One night there was a sharp knock on my door.I wasn't expecting a visitor. "Francoise？It's me，" a woman whispered.I threw open the door. "Amanda？What's wrong？"
Amanda，a thin young woman，was our chef.She motioned for me to come outside. "There's a baby Ellie here."
"An elephant？"
"She's right over there，tiny and terrified."
"It must be ET's baby daughter，" I said.
Amanda explained that she'd heard a noise outside her room.She'd taken her flashlight，opened the door and shined it across the garden.A tiny elephant stared back at her，eyes in terror.Not knowing what to do，Amanda had closed the door and climbed out of a back window to call me.
Elephants are fantastic mothers — ET would never leave her baby unattended.Apparently，the baby elephant had somehow slipped under the fence.
Amanda and I had to get her inside the house to keep her safe until we could get her back to her motjye.ai.Her frightened eyes stared at us through the leaves.I walked slowly toward the Ellie.She watched me but as soon as I was within touching distance，she ran behind the house.Amanda and I ran after her.Finally，we managed to corner the Ellie in the parking area.She stood completely still，head down and eyes flashing anxiously at any movement or sound.I tried approaching her again，and this time she didn't resist，allowing us to gently get her into my home.
I kept talking to her，telling her she was safe and that we would get her back to her mum.Then I called the reserve center for help and，to our relief，they promised to come right away.

Soon，we heard the sound of a truck on the dirt track.
