Test1(2025·甘肃张掖联考)
Our family was sitting on the porch swing enjoying the summer breeze when my husband pointed to something on the swing's chain next to him. We 1 forward to see a large praying mantis (螳螂) attaching to the chain. We held our 2 and watched, not wanting to scare it away. We sat and 3 chatted for the next half hour as we watched the insect 4 up and down the chain. It seemed 5 by our presence, and we were 6 to observe its slow, precise movements.
We wouldn't have 7 it if my husband had not pointed it out. Too often, we move through life, 8 of the beautiful blessings surrounding us each day. The 9 of sitting and watching an insect for half an hour is something I do not want to 10 for granted. Too often, I define myself by my productivity. I start my morning with a checklist and 11 my worth by how much I get done by the day's end.
I'm learning to 12 my tireless striving for productivity and simply 13 the gifts of this beautiful world when I see them. Each creature displays a small 14 . To sit and watch a unique bug like a praying mantis is an act of admiration. I think I'll 15 and sit for a while in search of another beautiful bug just to appreciate the beauty of nature.
