I dont recall any one special bit of wisdom she passed on. Yet I cannot forget her 3 for language, for ideas and for her students. I 4 now, many years later, that she is the perfect example of a 5 teacher. Id like to say something to her, I say, but I dont want to 6 her from a class. Nonsense, he says, shell be 7 to see you.The drama teacher 8 Miss Roberts into the hallway where stands this 32-year-old man she last saw at 18. “Im Mark Medoff,” I tell her. “You were my 12th-grade English teacher in 1958.” She 9 her head to one side and looks at me, as if this angle might remember me in her 10 And then, though armed with a message I want to 11 in many words, I cant think up anything more memorable than this: “I want you to know,” I say, “you were 12 to me.”And there in the hallway, this lovely woman, now nearing 13 age, this teacher who doesnt remember me, begins to weep; and she encircles me in her arms. 14 this moment, I begin to sense that everything I will ever know, everything I will ever pass to my students, is an inseparable part of a legacy(遗产) of our ancestors.Irene Roberts holds me 15 in her arms and through her tears whispers 16 my cheek, “Thank you.” And then, with the briefest of looks into my forgotten face, she 17 back into her classroom, 18 to what she has done thousands of days through all the years of my 19 On reflection, maybe those were, 20 , just the right words to say to Irene Roberts.

(40 points)Text 1 In the U.S. state of Washington, a road called Interstate 90 cuts through a wild, mountainous area to reach the city of Seattle. For the area's many kinds of animals, the busy highway greatly limits their movements. Crossing 1-90as the road is calledis a risky but sometimes necessary act. But soon, animals will have a safer choice for crossing the road. They will be able to go above it.To help the animals, the state is finishing work on its largest-ever wildlife bridge. The 11-meter-tall, 20-meter-wide structure begins in the forest. It forms two arches above the highway, one for each direction of traffic.

Some are fences, some are overland bridges, and some are underpasses. They all aim to keep drivers and animals away from each other. Collisions between animals and drivers are rarely deadly to people. But they are often deadly to wildlife. In Canada's Banff National Park, studies have found that wildlife crossings reduce the area's animal-driver collisions by 80 percent.Most of the wildlife bridges are in western states. But experts have noted many other areas that have a need for such paths. Jen Watkins, whose organization has helped campaign for animal crossings, says ftind for more crossings is "the number-one barrier."Patty Garvey-Darda of the U.S. Forest Service has worked on the 1-90 crossing from the start of the project. She says the $6- million bridge will one day pay for itself because the highway will not
