10、项中，选出最佳选项。AAttention from strangers is nothing new to me. Questions about my height is the center of almost every public interaction. My friends say my height !s just a physical quality and not a personality aspect. However, when I reflect on my life, I realize that, my height has shaped my characte

11、r in many ways and has helped to make me who I am.I learned how to be kind. When I was younger, some parents in my neighborhood regarded me kind of dangerous because I was so much larger than other children my age. I had to be extra welcoming and gentle simply to play with other children. Of course.

12、 now my coaches wish I werent quite so kind on the basketball court. I learned the quality of not being too proud about myself. At 7 feet tall, everyone expects me to be an amazing basketball player. They come expecting to see Dirk Nowitzki, and instead they might see a performance more like Will Fe

13、rrell(successfully starred a professional basketball player). I have learned to be modest and to work even harder than my fellows to meet their (and my) expectations. I developed a sense of lightheartedness. When people playfully make fun of my height, 1laugh at myself too. On my first day of high s

14、chool, a girl dropped her books in a busy hallway. I got down to her level and gathered some of her notebooks. As we both stood up, her eyes widened as I kept rising over her. Astonished, she dropped her books again. Embarrassed, we both laughed and picked up the books a second time.All of these les

15、sons have defined me. Looking back, I realize that through years of such experiences, I have become a confident, expressive person.

19、ke robbers.” She is referring to the fact that we are half Jewish and half Indian, so we receive gits on both the. festivals of lights. Hanukkah and Diwali. Though my mother teases us, I do not mind getting two sets of gifts!Hanukkah is celebrated on the 25th day of the Jewish month. which is usuall

20、y sometime in December. On Hanukkah, like most Jewish families. we light a menorah and say a prayer each night. We also say a special prayer on the first night. After that, it is a tradition tor my sister and me to do hot and cold, for our hidden Hanukkah gifts. When we walk towards the gift, our pa

21、rents say hot and when we walk further away, they say cold. We each receive one present every night of Hanukkah. Another part I like about this holiday is seeing family members who we do not see often. My aunt usually stays for a few days, and we sometimes visit other relatives. Diwali is celebrated

22、 on the 13th day of the dark fortnight of the month of Ashwin(October / November). To celebrate Diwali, my family does a pooja, or prayers, in honor of the goddess Lakshmi. Since she is the goddess of wealth and prosperity, the pooja includes washing silver coins in milk and water. In India, people

23、decorate their houses with lamps, similar to the way you might light up your house for Christmas.

CHave you ever noticed tiny raised areas on the branches of a tree? These may have been insects. These small insects feed on tree sap (汁液

28、). Insects on urban trees are notably more abundant than those on rural trees. As a result, urban trees suffer from heavy infestations (害虫横行), and are often unhealthy or die. To protect and restore urban trees health, we need to determine the factors that make these tree pests more successful in urb

29、an habitats. Living organisms interact closely with their environment. The warmer, more drought-stressed trees harbor more successful pests than cooler, less drought-stressed trees. As cities and natural habitats become hotter and drier, damaging insects will become more abundant on urban trees. Tre

30、es within urban forests are valuable economically and for the environmental sustainability (可持续性) of the region. More than half of the worlds population lives in cities.
