204107. （2023•西安中学•高二上期末） I once met a young woman who had dreams of swimming for the U.S Olympic team.She had to get up every morning at 4 a.m.to swim for 3 hours before going to school.She did not party with her friends on Saturday night.She had to study and keep her grades up，just like everyone else.
   When I asked her what compelled her with such super-human ambition and sacrifice（牺牲），she simply said. "I do it for myself and the people I love.It's love that gets me over the hurdles and sacrifices."
   A reason or a purpose is a combination of "wants" and "don't wants. "When people ask me what my reason for wanting to be rich is，it is a combination of deep emotional "wants" and "don't wants."
   I will list a few.First the "don't wants." for they create the "wants." I don't want to work all my life.I don't want what my parents aspired for，which was job security and a big house.I don't like being an employee.I hated it that my dad always missed my football games because he was so busy working on his career.I hated it when my dad worked hard all his life and the government took most of what he worked for at his death.
   Now the "wants".I want to be free to travel the world and live in the lifestyle I love.I want to be young when I do this.I want control over my time and my life.I want money to work for me.
   Those are my deep-seated，emotional reasons.What are yours？If they are not strong enough，the reality of the road ahead may be greater than your reasons.I have lost money and been set back many times.but it was the deep emotional reasons that kept me standing up and going forward.I wanted to be free by age 40.but it took me until I was 47 with many learning experiences along the way.
   I wish I could say it was easy.It wasn't，but it wasn't hard either.But without a strong reason or purpose anything in life is hard.

（1）The passage is started by        .
A．giving an example
B．explaining the causes
C．pointing out similarities
D．describing the differences
（2）The underlined word "compelled" in Para.2 probably means        .
A．committed
B．inspired
C．forced
D．combined
（3）We know from the passage that        .
A．the "wants" lead to the "don't wants"
B．the "wants" come from the "don't wants"
C．the "don't wants" have little to do with the "wants"
D．the "don't wants" are more important than the "wants"
（4）What can we learn from the underlined sentence in Para.6？

[解析]

（1）推理判断题。根据文章第一段I once met a young woman who had dreams of swimming for the U.S Olympic team.She had to get up every morning at 4 a.m.to swim for 3 hours before going to school.She did not party with her friends on Saturday night.She had to study and keep her grades up，just like everyone else.（我曾经遇到过一个梦想加入美国奥运游泳队的年轻女子。她不得不每天早上4点起床，在去学校之前游3个小时的泳。星期六晚上她没有和朋友一起聚会。她必须学习，保持好成绩，就像其他人一样。）可知文章通过举例一位游泳健将的经历告诉我们可以通过自己的努力成功。说明这篇文章以举一个例子开始的。故选A。
（2）猜测词义题。根据文章第二段I do it for myself and the people I love.It's love that gets me over the hurdles and sacrifices（我这样做是为了我自己和我爱的人。是爱让我跨越了障碍和牺牲）说明是有一定的东西让他强迫做出牺牲。因此compelled的意思是"强迫"。A.committed奉献；B.inspired鼓舞；C.forced强迫；D.combined结合。故选C。
（3）推理判断题。根据文章第四段First the "don't wants." for they create the "wants." I don't want to work all my life.I don't want what my parents aspired for，which was job security and a big house.I don't like being an employee.I hated it that my dad always missed my football games because he was so busy working on his career.I hated it when my dad worked hard all his life and the government took most of what he worked for at his death.（首先是"不想要"因为他们创造了"需求"我不想工作一辈子。我不想要我父母渴望的东西，那就是稳定的工作和一栋大房子。我不喜欢当雇员。我讨厌我爸爸总是错过我的足球比赛，因为他忙于他的事业。我讨厌我爸爸一生努力工作，而政府在他去世时拿走了他工作的大部分。）可知"不想要"比"想要"更重要。故选D。
（4）推理判断题。根据文章第六段 Those are my deep﹣seated，emotional reasons.What are yours？If they are not strong enough，the reality of the road ahead may be greater than your reasons.I have lost money and been set back many times.but it was the deep emotional reasons that kept me standing up and going forward.I wanted to be free by age 40.but it took me until I was 47 with many learning experiences along the way.（这些是我根深蒂固的情感原因。你的呢？如果他们不够强大，前方道路的现实可能大于你的理由。我曾经损失过金钱，也曾多次受挫。但正是这种深刻的情感原因让我站了起来，继续前进。我想在40岁的时候获得自由，但是我直到47岁才获得自由，在这过程中我有了很多学习经验。）可知现实中，如果没有更深层次的情感原因，我们可能会遇到更多的障碍。故选D。

   Lately，he says he just wants to make people happy by making bubbles.You can watch him perform his bubble art for hours at a time around the city's streets and in its parks.Sometimes he puts out a glass container called a tip jar.People who watch hiow can drop money into it if they want to.
   If the weather is good for bubbles，Reis makes a special mixture that can make bubbles the size of a small car.Humidity，or the amount of water in the air，is good for bubbles.So，he does not perform on very dry days.To make his large bubble，he puts a small rope hanging from two long sticks into the bubble mixture.As he removes it，he opens his arms wide and the bubbles begin to form.Once enough air is inside the bubble，he moves his arms back together to set the bubble free.Some people feel it looks like a bubble"ballet."

22266. （2016•新课标•ll卷） A new collection of photos brings an unsuccessful Antarctic voyage back to life.
Frank Hurley's pictures would be outstanding----undoubtedly first-rate photo-journalism---if they had been made last week.In fact,they were shot from 1914through 1916，most of them after a disastrous shipwreck（海难），by a cameraman who had no reasonable expectation of survival.Many of the images were stored in an ice chest,under freezing water,in the damaged wooden ship.
The ship was the Endurance,a small,tight,Norwegian-built three-master that was intended to take Sir Ernest Shackleton and a small crew of seamen and scientists,27men in all,to the southernmost shore of Antarctica's Weddell Sea.From that point Shackleton wanted to force a passage by dog sled（雪橇） across the continent.The journey was intended to achieve more than what Captain Robert Falcon Scott had done.Captain Scott had reached the South Pole early in 1912but had died with his four companions on the march back.
As writer Caroline Alexander makes clear in her forceful and well-researched story The Endurance,adventuring was even then a thoroughly commercial effort.Scott's last journey,completed as be lay in a tent dying of cold and hunger,caught the world's imagination,and a film made in his honor drew crowds.Shackleton,a onetime British merchant-navy officer who had got to within 100miles of the South Pole in 1908，started a business before his 1914voyage to make money from movie and still photography.Frank Hurley,a confident and gifted Australian photographer who knew the Antarctic,was hired to make the images,most of which have never before been published.

33．What do we know about the photos taken by Hurley？
A．They were made last week
B．They showed undersea sceneries
C．They were found by a cameraman
D．They recorded a disastrous adventure
34．Who reached the South Pole first according to the text？
A．Frank Hurley
B．Ernest Shackleton
C．Robert Falcon Scott
D．Caroline Alexander
35．What does Alexander think was the purpose of the 1914voyage？
A．Artistic creation
B．Scientific research
C．Money making
D．Treasure hunting.

202367. （2021•西安中学•四模） Learning to say "yes，and"
When I first heard about the improvisation （即兴交流） class，I was hesitating.As a quiet and shy girl，I feared improvising in front of strangers.However，I knew I wanted to work as a science communicator after finishing my Ph.D.，so it seemed like a perfect opportunity to learn how to speak and communicate with others effectively.I signed up，knowing the experience would give me help.
   During our first class，we learned an important concept of improvisation："yes，and." It means that，as improvisers，we'd better accept what fellow performers say.If someone says that rhinos（犀牛）are librarians，for example，then rhinos are librarians.We do not question the logic；we say "yes" and then continue with the scene as if nothing is wrong.
   The first few scenes were hard，but as weeks turned into months，I became more comfortable and even started to enjoy our classes.I became better at listening，relating to my conversation partners，and communicating clearly in the moment.Once when I was giving a presentation about my science，an audience member surprised me with a question that didn't grow out of the information I'd presented.Instead of getting confused and nervous，I took the "yes，and" approach-accepting the question and letting my mind focus on why it was asked.That helped me find an appropriate answer.I got pretty excited about it.
   The benefits of improvisation go beyond communication.Before attending the class，I would get stuck when my experiments produced unexpected data，thinking that I had made a mistake.But now，instead of getting discouraged，I will stay open to the possibility that the results are real，keep exploring the data and end up identifying a new type of cell-one that isn't behaving as expected.
   I think all scientists can benefit from this lesson.If the data say rhinos are librarians，then it's worth finding out whether rhinos are，in fact，librarians.As scientists，our job isn't to challenge data that support a preconceived （先入为主的）story，but to say "yes，and."

（1）Why did the author attend the improvisation class？
A．To get a different experience.
B．To finish her Ph.D.at university.
C．To give up her job as a science communicator.
D．To improve her speaking and communicating ability.
（2）What was the author's change after attending the improvisation class？
A．She formed her own idea quickly.
B．She came up with lots of creative responses.
C．She paid more attention to the logic of answers.
D．She became a good listener before giving an opinion.
（3）The author mentions applying the "yes，and" approach to her scientific experiments to        .
A．explain the process of using the method
B．prove the benefits of the improvisation class
C．share her own research experiences with readers
D．attract fellow scientists to attend the improvisation class
（4）What can be inferred about scientists from the last paragraph？
A．They should attend the improvisation class.
B．They should question all preconceived ideas.
C．They should carry on research by admitting earlier data.
D．They should try to improve their professional knowledge.

202119. （2022•西安中学•二模） When I was 6，my elder brother brought me to the local BMX（自行车越野） track to ride in a kid's race for the first time.The hill out of the starting gate looked so scary and steep that I backed off.My parents took me back for another try the next week.I fell almost immediately but still managed to win the second place.I've loved racing ever since.
   I turned pro at 15，which isn't possible now：You have to be 17 to compete professionally around the time I went pro.BMX became an Olympic sport and I decided to pursue it after high school.I'm the youngest woman with a professional title in the United States.
   BMX isn't judged on tricks or how you handle barriers，but it's an extreme sport.It's like horse racing mixed with riding a roller coaster.It starts with a huge burst of speed - I go 40 mph by the time.I'm two and a half seconds out of the gate.Then I try to come out in front of seven competitors at the end of the track，which includes 40-foot jumps.I keep chasing the high that comes from prestart nervousness，big jumps，and that feeling of crossing the finish line first.
   Strength and balance are key in competition，so I work out at least five days a week to prepare.I do tons of resistance and agility（灵活）training，both on and off the bike.I also do mental drills with a sports psychologist to make sure I'm focused and confident going into competition.If I make a mistake on the course，I have to move on.Everyone is out to beat me；I need to concentrate on winning so my competitors can't capitalize on an error and pass me!
   I was so proud to win a silver medal at the Olympics in Rio，but I felt I was capable of gold，so that will push me to do better.I'm continually working to reach my potential in the sport.Until I feel completely satisfied，I'll keep coming back.

（1）What do we know about the author？
A．She withdrew from her first BMX race.
B．She became the youngest BMX rider in America.

B．focus on other competitors
C．play tricks
D．keep balanced all the way
（3）The underlined phrase "capitalize on" in Paragraph 4 probably means        .
A．make up for
B．take advantage of
C．keep an eye on
D．take notice of
（4）What qualities have led to the author's success？
A．Proud and serious.

202148. （2022•西安中学•八模） I'm running some 3，550 kilometers.To be more precise，this jog is mostly around my neighborhood in Ottawa.It is the distance by air to Vancouver that my friend Lucy and I are doing.If we make it，Lucy and I will get on a plane to Vancouver and compete in one of the BMO Vancouver Marathon weekend races.We may not win medals，but for sure we'll have cake for my seventy-fifth birthday at the finish line.
   The workout for big birthdays represents a big change for me.I used to hate birthdays，especially those milestone ones.No longer feeling young is horrible.As I approached my sixtieth birthday，Lucy suggested setting targets to mark milestone birthdays. "That way you are looking forward to something，not dreading it，" she pointed out.
   By doing those expanding my world or demanding new skills，I feel myself growing，not shrinking.For my sixtieth，I got it into my head that I should do an Olympic distance triathlon （铁人三项赛），which turned out to be a real milestone.After over four hours on the course，I was last among the 95 competitors.But I was the oldest woman competing，so that made me first in my age category.Since then，I've looked on the special days as a call for trying something different.For my sixty-fifth birthday，I went to run a half marathon.And I finished seven activities that took me out of my "comfort zone" at seventy.
   I'm fortunate to have celebrated so many birthdays in good health and spirits，so whether I succeed in running to Vancouver or not，I'm grateful for the opportunity.One thing I've learned in taking up these challenges is that there are many possibilities for new adventures and achievements，even as we grow older.So do spend every day of every year with a definite end in view，which will release your energy and make you happy.

（1）How does the author plan to celebrate her 75th birthday？
A．Joining in a marathon race.
B．Going jogging across Canada.
C．Flying to Vancouver with a friend.
D．Running 3，550km in her neighborhood.
（2）What does the underlined word "dreading" in paragraph 2 mean？
A．Demanding.
B．Fearing.
C．Changing.
D．Accepting.
（3）Why did the author think the triathlon a milestone？
A．It inspired her to accept challenges.
B．It changed her attitude to birthdays.
C．It proved she was in good condition.
D．It drove her to step outside her comfort zone.
（4）What does the author suggest at last？
A．Living with a clear goal.
B．Doing exercise to keep healthy.
C．Facing adventures bravely.
D．Settling into old age positively.

202205. （2022•长安区一中•五模） Having worked for more than a decade in finance in the oil industry in Canada，Tori Fahey found herself wanting more from life.But it wasn't through desperation that her circumstances changed： "I didn't get fed up and storm off，nothing like that；it was curiosity about other interests and wanting to experience something new."
   Fahey left her job and completed an MBA before setting up a move to New York to begin a degree.However，the opportunity of an open year between the MBA and the degree came up，and as a keen touring cyclist，Fahey realised that a much dreamed-about adventure was now becoming a possibility："The ride in Africa had been on my fantasy list.It was a moment when I realised that I could do anything，so I should."
   Fahey rode across Africa，a 7，500-mile trip that took four months.The whole experience had a life-changing impact.Fahey said："Bicycles provide a literal freedom.You don't allow yourself to feel like that in everyday life because there are so many distractions.But when you' re out on the bike and there's nothing else，you're really free to experience what life is."
   Post-degree，Fahey worked on projects with the UNDP（United Nations Development Project）in Montenegro with the aim of bringing investment to rural communities.
   It was while working on these projects that the seeds were sown for the next new investment. "It was through my trip across Africa that I discovered pannier and rack systems inconvenient and I was never going to use them again." Little did she know this would lead her to start up her own company.
   In 2013，Apidura was born，producing storage solutions for people looking to travel the world by bike，race across continents and carry all they need to do so.It's now a successful global brand，but Fahey remains reflective about what else the company can do for people.

202224. （2022•临潼区•一模） Camelli's duty was simple：to give back to the community where she was raised.Warren，Ohio lies just thirteen miles north of Youngstown，the former center of steel production，and now one of the neediest cities in the country.Both cities' populations and its finance have been on the decline each year，with unemployment rates surpassing both the state and national average.
   But it wasn't always this way.Thirty years ago，when Camelli was a student at Howland High School，the school where she now teaches Advanced Placement Psychology，"The poorness level was around 6%，" she says.Today，it is closer to 40%.
   This financial condition influences everything from the way students learn，to their ability to deal with social and emotional issues.Knowing this，Camelli created Paw Pantry.Whether it's for food，clothes，school supplies or personal hygiene（卫生）products，students and their parents can go on the district's website and fill out a request form for Paw Pantry products.They can choose to pick their items up-or have them delivered-at school.
   Camelli mentioned Paw Pantry when she attended her high school activity in 2017.It made her former classmates aware of how their hometown has changed over the years. "soon，money started pouring in from all over the country，all over the world，" she says.
   In just a year and a half since the Paw Pantry began，Camelli has received plenty of non-perishable （不易变质的）food，clothing，lunch boxes，backpacks，school supplies-even home goods，including a refrigerator，a washer and dryer，and a stove.
   Camelli actively shows her students the power of connection. "I'm definitely kinder because of Ms.Camelli.Ms.Camelli is a mother，but she's also a mother figure for all of us".Blake says，"Ms.Camelli，you will never understand how happy this act of your caring had made me，" she added.
   Camelli is a community activist，a mental heath supporter，and by many people's standards，she's most certainly a hero，but she doesn't see herself that way.And that's what she as a teacher should do.

（1）What does the underlined word "neediest" in the first paragraph mean？
A．Liveliest.
B．Riskiest.
C．Remotest.
D．Poorest.
（2）What can we infer from the passage？
A．Paw Pantry didn't go well.
B．Paw Pantry gained much support.
C．Camelli was hopeful about Paw Pantry's future.
D．Many people treated Paw Pantry with doubt.
（3）How does Blake feel about Ms.Camelli？
A．Grateful.
B．Annoyed.
C．Unconcerned.
D．Confused.
（4）What can we learn about Camelli from the last paragraph？
A．She feels great about herself.
B．She won't continue her teaching career.
C．She thinks that she just does what a teacher does.
D．She doesn't think she has done enough.

202330. （2022•交大附中•七模） If you enjoy American stories，you'll have noticed that many of them take place on the road.Many famous American novels are about stories that occur while their characters are traveling along highways.These novels are often celebrations of American life.
   Jesmyn Ward's National Book Award winner Sing，Unburied，Sing is a road novel，but not a celebration.The road journey here is through Mississippi，as an African-American mother and her two children travel to collect her white husband as he's released from jail.
   Neither the mother，Leonie，nor the father，Michael，are ideal parents.Leonie in particular is so full of anger and regret that she takes out her unhappiness on her children，the 13-year-old Jojo and his little sister Kayla.
   The telling of the story is divided between various narrators.Jojo，the boy，is the most sympathetic of them.But it is worrying to read about how he experiences the world.Even though he's young，he's already experienced the dark side of life.The opening sentence of the book gives a sense of Jojo's unnatural maturity-"I like to think I know what death is.I like to think that I could look at it straight."
   But who，or what，is to blame for these sad circumstances？For Ward，it's clearly the past.She admires the work of fellow novelist William Faulkner.When she thinks about the past，she's of the same mind as him.
   Faulkner famously wrote， "The past is never dead.It's not even past." At one point，Ward says that her characters are "pulling the past with them." like a too-heavy trailer（拖车） coupled to the car，as they journey on through Mississippi to the jailhouse.The biggest part of this past，of course，is racism—the remains of slavery-which is always there，and ruining life.
   This is probably why The Washington Post listed Sing，Unburied，Sing as one of its 10 choices of 2017's Best Books. "The misery of this one family is tied to crimes that stretch over decades，" wrote the newspaper.

202348. （2021•西安中学•五模） Unless your parent is a head chef or bento box（便当盒）master，school lunch is usually nothing to write home about.For artist and father Dominick Cabalo，however，his son Nicholas' lunches are an oil painting cloth for creativity.Cabalo makes carefully designed drawings on each of 12-year-old Nicholas' paper lunch bags，usually representing popular lively characters and colorful superheroes.
   Cabalo began drawing on the bags about three years ago to help Nicholas make new friends in elementary school. "I noticed he was a bit shy when it came to talking to others，" he said. "So by creating a piece of artwork to 'break the ice'，kids would come up to him and start talking and hopefully a conversation，or better yet，a new friendship，would start."
   Though Nicholas is in middle school now，he still asks his dad to draw on the lunch bags，and will make requests for characters or drawings that he'd like to see on the next bag.Cabalo has drawn about 400 lunch bags in the past three years.He explained that the bags had really helped his son become more confident at school. "He's broken out of hiell because of this，and I like to think that I had a hand in helping him do this with these bags." he wrote.
   Nicholas keeps most of the bags. "Some come back in better condition than others，" Cabalo said. "We may lose one due to the occasional wet sandwich or leaky drink，but that's to be expected." As for the bags that make it home undamaged，Cabalo posts their photos to social media.His favorites are the more time-consuming series of bags that can be joined up to create a larger image，such as the "Finding Nemo" triptych（三联画）.

202369. （2021•西安中学•四模） One day，gardeners might not just hear the buzz of bees among their flowers，but the whirr of robots，too.Scientists have managed to turn an unassuming drone （无人机） into a remote-controlled pollinator （授粉媒介） by attaching horsehairs coated with a special，sticky gel to its underbelly.
   Animal pollinators are needed for the reproduction of 90% of flowering plants and one third of human food crops.Chief among those are bees - but many bee populations in the United States have been in steep decline in recent decades.Thus，the decline of bees isn't just worrisome because it could disrupt ecosystems，but also because it could disrupt agriculture and economy.People have been trying to come up with replacement techniques，but none of them are especially effective yet.
   Scientists have thought about using drones，but they haven't figured out how to make free-flying robot insects that can rely on their own power source without being attached to a wire. "It's very tough work，" said senior author Eijiro Miyako，a chemist at the National Institute of Advanced Industrial Science and Technology.His particular contribution to the field involves a gel，one he'd considered a mistake 10 years before and stuck in a storage cabinet.When it was rediscovered a decade later，it hadn't dried up or degraded at all. "I was so surprised because it still had high viscosity，" Miyako said.
   The chemist noticed that when dropped，the gel absorbed an impressive amount of dust from the floor.Miyako realized this material could be very useful for picking up pollen （花粉）.He and his colleagues chose a drone and attached horsehairs to its smooth surface to mimic a bee's fuzzy body.They coated those horsehairs in the gel，and then controlled the drones over lilies，where they would pick up the pollen from one flower and then deposit the pollen at another one，thus fertilizing it.
   The scientists looked at the hairs under a scanning electron microscope and counted up the pollen grains attached to the surface and found that the drones whose horsehairs had been coated with the gel had about 10 times more pollen than those that had not been coated with the gel.
   Miyako does not think such drones would replace bees altogether，but could simply help bees with their pollinating duties.There's a lot of work to be done before that's a reality，however.Small drones will need to become more controllable and energy efficient，as well as smarter，with better GPS and artificial intelligence.

（1）What does the underlined word "viscosity" in Para.3 probably mean？
A．Hardness.
B．Stickiness.
C．Flexibility.
D．Purity.
（2）We can learn from the passage that        .
A．bees disrupt both agriculture and economy
B．scientists have invented self-powered robot insects
C．bees in the United States are on the edge of extinction
D．Miyako found the special feature of the gel by chance
（3）A drone works best in picking up pollen when        .
A．its body is made like a bee's
B．its GPS works more efficiently
C．some flowers are coated with the gel
D．horsehairs with the gel are attached to it
（4）According to Eijiro Miyako，the drones        .
A．are not yet ready for practical use
B．may eventually replace bees in the future
C．are much more efficient than bee pollinators
D．can provide a solution to economic depression

202081. （2022•西安中学•六模） My mother always told me，"You should explore your own country before stepping out into the world." However，it seems like a tough mission to travel all across its expansive surfaces.But luckily for me，Via Rail Canada offered youths between the ages of 18 and 25 the chance to ride the train across Canada for the month of July.The ticket was a bargain ＄150.My best friends Trevor，Joel and Jeremy and I immediately jumped at the opportunity and secured four tickets on the great Canadian railroad.
   For a group of 20-year-olds，this was like the first flight of young birds from the nest.When we approached the train station in the morning，our 22-day adventure from Sudbury to Vancouver was to begin.Eyes baggy from lack of sleep，we jumped on board as if it was the train to Hogwarts in Harry Potter.Although the thought of three full days on those tracks covering close to 3，000 kilometres crushed our spirits a little，what happened next caught us by surprise.
   The three days on board turned into a summer camp on rails.At night，we would climb up the glass-domed train car，which gave us a scenic view of the starry night sky，untouched by the harmful light pollution.Before we knew it，the warm sun rays beating down on our faces woke us up for another day on the rails.To my surprise，a sea of golden grain fields dominated the landscape we were in the Canadian Prairies.
   Another day slipped away and we set up for another night in the dome.And this time we were greeted by night sky painted by a fantastic thunderstorm.Lightning was striking at an incredible rate.The spectacular and memorable light show left everyone in the glass bubble in complete disbelief.
   Arriving in the Rocky Mountains was one of the most surrealistic（超现实的） experiences of my life.Before the train adventure，if I could have skipped the travel and arrived at the destination，I would have.That is no longer true.I've learned that the journey can be more enjoyable than the destination.

   "There's my big camper!" said her mom.Then，she walked to the stove，placed two pieces of French toast on a plate and powdered sugar snowing down. "Just like you like it." At the meanwhile，Maria was already in position，armed with knife，fork，napkin and a full glass of milk.

202424. （2021•西安中学•七模） My doctor took me for a walk around the farm where she lives.I was physically and emotionally exhausted and discouraged by anxiety and depression.
   The place was full of life.There were insects，horses，rabbits and a cat.She told me to focus on my body in the environment.
   When I was ill，I tended to retreat into my mind and disconnect from here and now.So，when I met a horse named Fira，I expected nothing.
   As I got closer to Fira，she nuzzled her nose into my chest，putting a gentle pressure over my heart.Something happened inside me：I felt as if I had reached a wellspring of past hurts，fears and failings.I began to melt emotionally.
   I patted Fira's nose and breathed in her smell.I found I didn't have to concentrate on feeling better；Fira helped me feel loved and safe.
   I worked with Fira often，learning basic communication and leading methods to work together with her.Initially，I wasn't sure exactly what one would do with a horse except riding it.But I knew that Fira had touched me in an uncommon way and had made me feel better.She connected with me by responding to my emotional state and reflecting it back to me in an open，affectionate way.
   In my meetings with Fira，I found that I lost my usual self-consciousness，and I would focus entirely on communicating.
   I learned to live in the present，to focus on what was happening this day，in this moment，in this place.I learned to forget the past，with all its hurts.I learned to forget the future，which hasn't happened yet.When you stand beside a horse，you exist completely in the moment.
   With Fira by my side，I saw into a life in which trust comes first，and compassion follows.
   I found a deep peace in leading her along a path，by using my own power of intention to indicate whether to start，stop，turn left or turn right.I felt an inner quiet and even joy.My work with this horse was part of a journey out of a very dark night in my soul.
