The elephant sanctuary in Hohenwald, Tennessee was built by Carol and Scott, who have seen enough abuse and ① neglect v. 忽视 at circuses and zoos. It is the nation’s largest natural habitat refuge developed specifically to meet the needs of ② endangered adj. 濒危的 elephants. The residents there are not required to ③ perform v. 表演，表现 or entertain for the public; instead, they enjoy the option to say no. The ④ remarkable adj. 非凡的，引人注目的 story of Jenny and Shirley's reunion ⑤ demonstrates v. 证明，展示 that elephants are sensitive, intelligent creatures and show great sympathy toward one another. Jenny and Shirley were both at the same circus when Jenny was a baby and Shirley was in her twenties. They lived one winter together, then were ⑥ separated adj./v. 分离的；分开 22 years ago. When they met again in the sanctuary, they recognized each other ⑦ instantly adv. 立刻，马上 and started to roar to express their excitement. Soon they were inseparable, as one bonded physically together. They always ⑧ wandered v. 漫步，徘徊 side by side and when Jenny lay down, Shirley stood aside in the most obvious protective manner and shaded her body from the sun and harm. Their relationship is intense and resembles that of mother and daughter. On October 17, 2006 Jenny died after a long illness, surrounded by Shirley, Bunny and Tarra and her caregivers. Just as she lived, Jenny entered death harmoniously. Shirley was quite ⑨ depressed adj. 沮丧的 after Jenny’s death and it took her a long time to ⑩ restore v. 恢复 her spirits and recover from her deep sorrow.

When an impressive athlete achieves or even surpasses their goal, there is no question of the ① inspirational adj. 鼓舞人心的 amount of effort they must have put in to be able to reach their achievement. They have ② outdone v. 胜过，超越 themselves when faced with a number of challenges just to get them in the right position to be able to compete. And with each ③ trial n. 考验，尝试 , that athlete has moved closer and closer to meeting their goals. However, they would not be able to accomplish any of this on their own. Every great athlete has an even greater team behind them. An athlete is never a(n) ④ instant adj. 立刻的，速成的 success. ⑤ despite prep. 尽管，不管 how easy it may appear, it did not start out that way. Even the very ⑥ epitome n. 典范，缩影 of a perfect candidate for any sport, would not be able to go very far on just their inherent talent alone. They need to be trained and tested to prove that they can meet the standard necessary to be able to actually compete against others in their field. And that is where the challenge truly begins. There are no exemptions (豁免), and no ⑦ fake adj. 假的 until you make it. Any quality athlete worth competing against must earn their place before they are even considered, without ⑧ exception n. 例外 . Now, all this may be daunting for an athlete. But fear of ⑨ making a fool of yourself 出丑，丢人 should never be a reason not to take the steps necessary to work towards your dreams. That is why having a supportive team behind every competitor is ⑩ essential adj. 至关重要的 . A good team can help to enhance the natural abilities of any capable athlete. When an athlete works together with their team, that is when they can achieve greatness.

One day, I received a phone call from an old lady, who had a ① frail adj. 虚弱的，脆弱的 voice. She asked my opinion about suicide. I didn’t expect such a call. But I didn’t respond with something flippant. Instead, I listened to her story. The lady told me she had terrible diseases and she wanted to ② commit v. 做（坏事） suicide because she thought she was a burden to her family. Then she ③ burst v. 突然爆发 into tears. Confused and searching for what to say, I stalled for time and ④ inquired v. 询问，打听 about the lady’s family. She told me that Andrew, her ⑤ rebellious adj. 叛逆的 middle child, had gotten especially close to her during her illness since he wanted her forgiveness for what he had done during his young adult years. Meanwhile, my memories ⑥ raced v. 快速闪过；急速移动. Her story reminded me of my Grandma Florence. When she was terribly ill, I was not ready to let her die. Maybe someone in my caller’s life also needed more time. The lady agreed with me. In our conversation, I learned that during the months after her ⑦ diagnosis n. 诊断 of cancer, Andrew made her a casket and wanted to have time to ⑧ reconcile v. 和解，和好. Then the lady told me about Sarah, her granddaughter. She gave birth to a stillborn baby and her loss seemed ⑨ overwhelming adj. 难以承受的，压倒性的 . She said perhaps God knew that Sarah couldn’t deal with another death right now. As she talked, the lady’s voice grew a little stronger. From my training, I learned this is sometimes a(n) ⑩ indication n. 迹象，暗示 that a person is beginning to see a ray of hope. Her perception was that God had a purpose for her life. He needed her help on Earth just a little longer.

Predictably, very few people are completely satisfied with the way they look. Many of people feel the need to incessantly (不停地) ① work out 锻炼，健身 and be on a(n) ② diet n. 饮食；节食 With just a ③ glance n. 一瞥，扫视, a person’s true self can be revealed through their figure without a single spoken word. A large part of that dissatisfaction stems from the understanding that there is a single idealized standard of beauty. This, however unrealistic, is maintained throughout our society. The idealized figure is prevalent in images being displayed in the media. This is so continuous that it has become normalized. A(n) ④ overweight adj. 超重的 body is seen as the absolute worst thing that could happen to a(n) ⑤ slender adj. 苗条的，纤细的 person. What might come as something of a surprise is that the whole concept of an ideal body image is nothing new. Sadly, this is far from a modern ⑥ epidemic n. 流行病；盛行，泛滥. Throughout time, there have been methods of making enhancements to the body. ⑦ plastic surgery 整形外科，整容手术 is just the newest technology in a long line of possible fixes for any issue that might arise surrounding a person’s appearance. All of this has only been used and retooled as a singular idea of beauty to be sold to those who are willing to purchase it. All based on images that have ⑧ planted v. 植入，灌输 in our minds. When we don’t stop to think about what we are buying, how can we possibly combat the ideas we are being fed? However desirable the ideal may be, what good would you be if you ⑨ exhausted v. 使筋疲力尽 yourself attempting to reach something so impossible? We all must remember that whatever our size, we should all ⑩ focus on 集中注意力于，专注于 a healthy body as well as a healthy mind.
