ADaniel was born in New Orleans，LA．，in 1962，slow to walk and talk，and short．He was the tiniest in his class，but he developed a warm，outgoing nature and was popular with his peers（同龄人）．And he became skillful at sports．Baseball gave him his earliest challenge．He was an excellent players in Little League．At graduation，the coach named Daniel the team's most valuable player．His finest hour，though，came at a scho ol science meeting．He entered an exhibit explaining how the circulatory system works．It was traditional，especially compared to（与…相比）the modern，computerized，blinking-light models entered by other students．My wife，Sara，felt embarrassed for him．It turned out that the other kids had made their exhibits．As the judges went on their rounds，they found that these other kids couldn't answer their questions．Daniel answered every one．When the judges awarded the Albert Einstein Plague for the best exhibit，they gave it to him．By the time Daniel left for college he stood six feet tall and weighed 170pounds．He was in superb condition，but he quit baseball for English literature．I was sorry that he would not develop his athletic talent，but proud that he had made such a satisfactory decision． One day I told Daniel that the great failing in my life had been that I didn't take a year or two off to travel when I finished college．This is the best way，to my way of thinking，to broaden oneself．Once I had married and begun working，I found that the dream of living in another culture had disappeared．Daniel thought about this．After graduation，he worked as a waiter at college，a bike messenger and a house painter．With the money he earned，he had enough to go to Paris．The night before he was to leave，I tossed in bed．I was trying to figure out something to say．Nothing came to mind．Maybe，I thought，it wasn't necessary to say anything．1.How can we describe little Daniel？ ______A. He was thin and tall．B. He was slow in his study．C. He was good at basketball．D. He got on well with his classmates．2.Why was Daniel's mother upset about his exhibit？ ______A. Because it was not to the taste of the judges．B. Because it was computerized．C. Because it was designed by his father．D. Because it was attractive．3.How did the author feel about the major（专业）Daniel chose at college？ ______A. Angry．B. Satisfied．C. Disappointed．D. Astonished．4.What can we infer according to Paragraph 6？ ______A. Daniel will study in Paris．B. Daniel dropped out of college．C. What the author said impressed Daniel greatly．D. Daniel worked hard to pay off the money he borrowed．BSome people learn a second language easily．Others have trouble learning a new language．How can you help yourself learn a new language，such as English？There are several ways to make learning English a little easier and more interesting．The first step is to feel positive about learning English．If you believe that you can learn，you will learn．Be patient．You do not have to understand everything all at once．It is natural to make mistakes when you learn something new．We can learn from our mistakes．In other words，do not worry about taking risks．The second step is to practice your English．For example，write a diary every day．Youwill get used to writing it in English，and you will feel comfortable expressing your ideas in English．Several weeks later，you will see that your writing is improving．In addition，you must speak English every day．You can practice with your classmates outside class．You will make mistakes，but gradually you will become comfortable communicating in Engl ish．The third step is to keep a record of your language learning．You can write this in your journal．After each class，think about what you did．Did you answer a question correctly？Did you understand something the teacher explained？Perhaps the lesson was difficult，but you tried to understand it．You must be positive about learning English and believe that you can do it．It is important to practice every day and make a record of your achievements．You will enjoy learning English，and you will feel more confident in yourself．5.To feel positive about learning English means ______ ．A. if you are patient，you will learn quicklyB. if you believe you can learn，you will learnC. if you keep a record，you can improve greatlyD. if you make mistakes，you can learn from your mistakes6.When you learn English，you do not need to ______ ．A. feel more confident in yourselfB. practice with your classmates outside classC. write a diary regularlyD. understand everything all at once7.According to t he passage，what is NOT helpful for you to enjoy learning English？ ______A.

Newspaper．CMy First Marathon（马拉松） A month before my first marathon， one of my ankles was injured and this meant not running for two weeks， leaving me only two weeks to train． Yet， I was determined to go ahead．I remember back to my 7th year in school． In my first P．E． class， the teacher required us to run laps and then hit a softball． I didn't do either well． He later informed me that I was" not athletic"．The idea that I was "not athletic" stuck with me for years． When I started running in my 30s，I realized running was a battle against myself， not about competition or whether or not I was athletic． It was all about the battle against my own body and mind． A test of wills!The night before my marathon， I dreamt that I couldn't even find the finish line． I woke up sweating and nervous， but ready to prove something to myself．Shortly after crossing the start line， my shoe laces （鞋带）became untied． So I stopped to readjust． Not the start I wanted！At mile 3， I passed a sign：" GO FOR IT， RUNNERS!"By mile 17， I became out of breath and the once injured ankle hurt badly． Despite the pain， I stayed the course walking a bit and then running again．By mile 21， I was starving！As I approached mile 23， I could see my wife waving a sign． She is my biggest fan． She never minded the alarm clock sounding at 4 a．m． or questioned my expenses on running．I was one of the final runners to finish． But I finished! And I got a medal． In fact，I got the same medal as the one that the guy who came in first place had．Determined to be myself， move forward， free of shame and worldly labels（世俗标签），I can now call myself a "marathon winner"．9. A month before the marathon， the author ______ ．A. was well trainedB. felt scaredC. made up his mind to runD. lost hope10.Why did the author mention the P．E． class in his 7th year？ ______A. To acknowledge the support of his teacher．B. To amuse the readers with a funny story．C. To show he was not talented in sports．D. To shar e a precious memory．11.How was the author's first marathon？ ______A. He made it．B. He quit halfway．C. He got the first prize．D. He walked to the end．12.What does the story mainly tell us？ ______A. A man owes his success to his family support．B. A winner is one with a great effort of will．C. Failure is the mother of success．D. One is never too old to learn．DWhen something goes wrong, it can be very satisfying to say, “Well, it’s so-and-so’s fault.”or “I know I’m late, but it’s not my fault; the car broke down.”It is probably not your fault, but once you form the habit of blaming somebody or something else for a bad situation, you are a loser. You have no power and could do nothing that helps change the situation. However, you can have great power over what happens to you if you stop focusing on whom to blame and start focusing on how to remedy the situation. This is the winner’s key to success.Winners are great at overcoming problems. For example, if you were late because your car broke down, maybe you need to have your car examined more frequently. Or, you might bring along with you the useful phone numbers, so you co uld call for help when in need. For another example, if your co-worker causes you problems on the job for lack of responsibility or ability, find ways of dealing with his irresponsibility or inability rather than simply blame the person. Ask to work with a different person, or don’t rely on this person. You should accept that the person is not reliable and find creative ways to work successfully regardless of how your co-worker fails to do his job well.This is what being a winner is all about ——creatively using your skills and talents so that you are successful no matter what happens. Winners don’t have fewer problems in their lives; they have just as many difficult situations to face as anybody else. They arejust better at seeing those problems as challenges and opportunities to develop their own talents. So, stop focusing on “whose fau lt it is.”Once you are confident about your power over bad situations, problems are just stepping on for success.13.According to the passage, winners _____________.A. meet with fewer difficulties in their livesB. deal with problems rather than blame othersC. have responsible and able co-workersD. blame themselves rather than others14.When your colleague brings about a problem, you should __________.A. find a better way to deal with the problemB. blame him for his lack of responsibilityC. tell him to find the cause of the problemD. ask a more able co-worker for help15.When problems occur, winners take them as __________.A. excuses for their failuresB. barriers (障碍) to greater powerC. challenges for their co-workersD. chances for self-development16.Which of the following is the best title for the passage?A. A Winner’s Key to Success．B. A Winner’s Problem．C. A Winner’s Opportunity．D. A Winner’s Achievement．第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）根据短文内容，从短文后的7个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。

an excerpt from a biology textbook discussing the process of photosynthesis in plants.Photosynthesis is the process by which green plants and certain other organisms use sunlight to synthesize foods with the help of chlorophyll.This process is essential for life on Earth as it produces oxygen and organic compounds that are used by plants and other organisms.The overall chemical equation for photosynthesis is:6CO₂ +6H₂0+light energy →C₆H₁2 O₆ +60₂Photosynthesis can be divided into two main stages:the light-dependent reactions and the Calvin cycle.The light-dependent reactions occur in the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplasts.These reactions use sunlight to split watermolecules(H₂0)into oxygen(O₂),protons(H ),and electrons (e-).The oxygen is released into the atmosphere,while the protons and electrons are used to produce ATP and NADPH, which are energy carriers.The Calvin cycle,also known as the light-independent reactions,takes place in the stroma of the chloroplasts.It uses the ATP and NADPH produced in the light-dependent reactions to convert carbon dioxide(CO₂)into glucose (C₆H₁20₆).This cycle consists of three main stages:carbon fixation, reduction,and regeneration of the starting molecule,ribulose-1,5-bisphosphate(RuBP).1 、What is the overall chemical equation for photosynthesis?A.3CO₂ +6H₂0+light energy →C₆H₁20₆ +60₂B.6CO₂ +6H₂0+light energy →C₆H₁20₆ +60₂C.2CO₂ +3H₂0+light energy →C₆H₁20₆ +60₂D.5CO₂ +4H₂0+light energy→C₆H₁20₆ +60₂2 、Where do the light-dependent reactions occur in a plant?A.In the mitochondriaB.In the cytoplasmC.In the thylakoid membranes of the chloroplastsD.In the stroma of the chloroplasts3 、What is the main purpose of the oxygen produced during photosynthesis?A.To be used as an energy source by plantsB.To be released into the atmosphereC.To be converted into glucoseD.To be used as a building block for proteins4 、In which stage of photosynthesis is carbon dioxide converted into glucose?A.The light-dependent reactionsB.The Calvin cycleC.The light-independent reactionsD.The regeneration of RuBPAnswers:1、B2、C3、B4、B四、阅读第二节(12.5分)Title:The Importance of ExerciseReading Passage:Exercise is not just about staying fit and

2020届大连市第一中学高三英语上学期期末考试试卷及参考答案第一部分阅读（共两节，满分40分）第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项AI truly thought thatI might die that day. Had I not seen three bears and a few wolves over the last couple of days near the road, I might have just lain down and called it quits. What in the world was I thinking, dragging my bike up to Yellowstone and thinking I could ride from West Yellowstone to Old Faithful in the snow? No less!I had planned this trip for more than two months, and I wasn't about to give up so easily. The first few miles were beautiful. Ten miles in, I started sucking wind. Fifteen miles and my legs felt like they were made of lead. By twenty miles, my lungs were burning and felt like there was nothing left in the tank. That was when I turned around and saw my husband and three children cheering me on in the van behind me. I knew I couldn't quit because I tell my children all the time that just because something is hard doesn't mean that you stop doing it. I had to live what I'd been preaching(说教). That thought got me up that mountain and to the end of the ride.The importance of that ride was apparent after only a week. My eight-year-old daughter Emalee wanted to ride in a twelve-mile charity ride. That day was cold as well. She was the youngest rider. About four miles into the ride, she started feeling cold. The chill(寒冷)was making her muscles cramp a little and she began to struggle. By six miles, she had tears running down her face. It broke my heart to see her suffering like that.I told herthat she didn't have to finish. She said that she wouldn't quit. I told her how I had wanted to quit the week before, but perseverance had gotten me to the end and I knew she could do it, too.The look on her face as she pulled into the finish was priceless. She threw her arms around me and said, “You didn't quit, Mommy, so neither did I.”1. What motivated the author to finish her ride?A. Her family's encouragement.B. Her own instruction for children.C. The beautiful scenery and weather.D. The careful and thorough preparation.2. By describing the conditions Emalee met, the author wanted to________.A. show her guilt for her daughterB. prove that riding is a tough taskC. persuade her daughter to give upD. indicate she was proud of Emalee3. What does the author want to tell us according to the story?A. Never say die.B. Do nothing by halves.C. Children are what the mothers are.D. Every mother's child is handsome.BYou must have read "The Tortoise and the Hare(《龟兔赛跑》)" when you were younger. So which animal are you? The tortoise or the hare? Do you rush around trying to do things as quickly as possible? Or do you deal your work at a slow , but steady(稳定的)pace? Whether you approach life like the tortoise or the hare can make a difference in the results you'll see.Some will say that you should avoid being like the hare. After all. he was overconfident and finally lost the race. You mayalso have heard teachers say from time to time that "haste makes waste”. But what does that mean? Most people think it meant that the faster you do something,the more likely it is that you'll make mistakes. Many teaches wantyouto approach your schoolwork thoughtfully and carefully.But does haste always make waste? Not necessarily ! Some people are able to work quickly while also maintaining(保持)a high level of quality in all that they do. Recent research, however, is making the idea of haste making waste seem more believableResearchers found that the brain changes into a special mode(模式)when forced to make rapid decisions. Overall, there appears to be a trade-off between speed and correctness. As the brain makes decisions more quickly, those decisions are usually built on less information, which often leads to a greater likelihood of mistakes.When you approach things like the tortoise. you methodically and steadily work towards your goal. You might not arrive there first, but then again you might! In any case, you're likely to make fewer mistakes and you might just enjoy the journey more than the bare.Goals are great to work towards, but often the achievements aren't what we remember. In the end, the most meaningful and important parts of our lives are the journeys we went on , not the destination we reached. So be the hare when you have to, but always remember that the slow and steady journey is what you’ll remember and treasure the most.4. Why does the author mention the story in the first paragraph?A. To introduce the topic.B. To show its popularity.C. To suggest its importance.D. To advise readers to read it.5. For what purpose do teachers often say “haste makes waste to students?A. To ask them not to waste their time.B. To tell them it is OK to make mistakes.C. To ask them to avoid making silly mistakes.D. To tell them they should check their schoolwork.6. What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?A. How the brain collects the information it needs.B. When the decision made by the brain is correct.C. Why the quickly-made decision is often unwise.D. What the relationship between lime and results is.7. Which of the following may the author agree with?A. Finishing the race is often a victory for everyone.B. Joy is found not in finishing an activity but in doing it.C. The journey to every destination starts with a small step.D. A destination is important because it guides us on the journey.COnline education has grown fast over the past ten years. The explosion of technology has made teaching outside the traditional classroom possible for teachers and has provided learners with easy access to course materials. Its attractiveness, benefits, and challenges are addressed.In April, 2005, I was approached by a student who was interested in our doctoral program. However, the first question out of her mouth was, “Do you offer any online courses?” Later that day, as I was reading the conference program guide trying for interesting presentations, I noticed many workshops on web-based learning and online education. I later attended two of those workshops and met several professors from different universities who had either taught online courses for quite some time or who were discovering the best practice for teaching online. These experiences helped me realize at least to some extent the degree of growth in online education.My responsibilities for the term included gaining more understanding of online education. Consequently, I made several attempts to enrich my knowledge of distance learning and online teaching. I consulted with my colleagues who were teaching online courses. This helped me recognize the importance of getting materialsprepared even before the start of a term. I also learned that online courses may consume more time than regular classroom teaching. And I attended several workshops regarding online education and established a network with those who were involved in online programs at other universities. I will consider these people as my consultants as I begin to design my own online course. Also, I conducted a brief survey with 15 students and two faculty members who had taken or taught an online course before to understand their experience. Eventually I completed a literature review which gave me the foundation and the background of understanding the need for online education.8. What benefits the development of online education?A. Teachers’ good teaching ability.B. Lack of traditional classrooms.C. Learners’ access to free courses.D. The rapid advance of technology.9. Why did the author take a student for example?A. To show students’ love for the doctoral program.B. To persuade learners of traditional education.C. To explain the growing trend of online education.D. To predict the future of the teaching career.10. What caused the author to know more about online education?A. The appetite for knowledge.B. The professional responsibilities.C. The requirement of research.D. The colleagues’ encouragement.11. What is the author’s attitude to online education?A. Carefree.B. Doubtful.C. Supportive.D. Unwilling.DI was so worried about handing my little boy over during his first week of school, but you made it easier. You smiled at him like a mother would at her own child.You showed warmth and your hugs were always on offer.After a day in class with you, Charlie would come home singing. Whenever I hear Do Your Ears Hang Low or see him stretching to the sky when singing about the days of the week, I will think of you.I didn't tell you at the time, but I loved your morning song so much that Iimplementedit in my own class (I'm a teacher, too).When you saw I was troubled, you hugged me with your smile and I knew everything would be OK. You made parents feel as cared for as our children.In the short time I knew you; you taught me about the type of teacher I desire to be. You never seemed disturbed by the mountain of paperwork or impossible work-life balance that comes with the role. Instead, you appeared to embrace every minute.I can't understand why you've been taken from us. Telling Charlie was one of the hardest things I've had to do.I'm not sure he fully understands, but he told me he loved you and has been asking whether your"robot powers"will work in heaven.A friend once told me white feathers are angels telling us that loved ones in heaven are well. On the first day collecting the children without you，a white feather floated through the sleet (雨夹雪). Watching the younger ones bounce and gigle as they tried to catch it was beautiful.I wish I had told you all of this when you were with us.I hope that you knew how you brought happiness to everyone you met and how loved you were. Goodbye, Dear Friend.12. What does the underlined word "implemented" in Paragraph l probably mean?A. Looked back on.B. Looked forward to.C. Thought highly of.D. Made use of.13. What can we learn from the passage about parents?A. They need to sing songs before children.B. They need to feel the affection as well.C. They find it hard to handle their kids.D. They find it necessary to hug the teachers.14. The writer mentioned "white feather" in Paragraph 4 mainly to ______.rm us of the loved one's deathB. remind us it's time for a snowball fightC. tell us the teacher stays in our mind after deathD. warn us of the falling snow when collecting children15. What's the writer's main purpose in writing this article?A. To make a remark on Charlie's teacher.B.To say goodbye to her fellow teacher.C. To take pity on her fellow teacher.D. To recall and show respect for Charlie's teacher.第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

With growing confidence, I decided to take the subway to the hotel, not realizing that the network didn’t go that far. Impressed with the cleanliness of the station, I bought a ticket and boarded the first train that came along.After a few minutes I asked in English of course a young man seated next to me where I should get off closest to the Friendship Hotel. Wearing a smart business suit and tie, he would surelyspeak English, wouldn’t he? Unfortunately, he couldn’t understand me but seemed very friendly. I showed him the room card with all the information of the Friendship Hotel in Chinese characters. He looked at it, and then his eyes moved quickly to the carriage (车厢) subway map. Next, he raised three fingers of his right hand.In Australia, raising fingers at someone is not usually nice, but this man wasn’t smiling. At the next station he showed me two fingers. Now in Australia, that’s really rude, but I got the message. When we stopped at th e third station, he didn’t just point to the door, but got up, took me out of the train, and led me to the top of the stairs, and out onto the street. Then he stopped a taxi and told the driver where to take me.All this came from a man who couldn’t speak my language, and I couldn’t speak his.

Don’t panic（恐慌）！You will deal successfully with them！You are a young adult now!With more responsibility(责任)，you will find more freedom to make your own choices. This is a time to be well informed(知晓)about your choices so that you can make healthy balanced decisions that will help shape your future. You may already know your career path or you may have no idea at all what you want to do. Both situations are fine！Work hard and the right opportunity will present(展现)itself to you.Young adulthood means greater freedom and more choices. You will probably want to be independent. But try not to shut your family out of your life. You should learn to think of others even though you are old enough to look after yourself. Your family have been with you since you came into this world.It is also perfectly natural in this time for you to spend more time with your friends than your family. Choose your friends wisely. A true friend will stand by you no matter what happens. This period is part of the lifecycle. There are some people who will be with you throughout life's journey and there will be some people with whom you part and go separate ways. Leaving school can be hard. The reality is that you may not ever see all of your classmates again.You are a young adult. It is your life. No one can live it for you. The choices that you make from now on will be your choices.

On a Saturday morning last autumn，I had gone to town to do some shopping and as I was on my way home，it suddenly began to rain. I at once ran into a nearby phone box because I didn’t havean umbrella．It was raining so heavily that I have to stay in the phone box until it stopped．A few moments later，I saw a young man walk up to the phone box，wearing a yellow raincoat and holding a box. I didn’t want to go out into the rain，so I picked up the phone and pretended（假装） I was talking to someone. I thought the man would go away，but he didn’t. He just waited in the rain，watching me. I had to wave my hands about and acted as if I was deep in conversation.Luckily，it began to stop after about ten minutes．“Okay，Mum，” I said loudly into the phone，“I’ll see you later Bye!” I put the phone down, picked up my shopping bag and walked out of the phone box “I’m sorry I took so long,” I said to the man．“Oh, I don’t want to use the phone,”he replied, smiling．“I’ve just come to repair it. It’s out of order, you see.” I felt myself go red in the face and I hurried away with my head down，feeling a complete fool. That was certainly one of the mostembarrassing moments of my life!25.

And Australian people love swimming and going to the beach. But it wasn't always that way.Different Climate, Different habitsWhen Europeans first invaded Australia, the only people here who were good at swimming were the Aboriginal(原住民) people. The Europeans came from climates where it was too cold to swim. Also some people worried that they would get sick if they wet their whole body.However the warm climate of Australia soon changed their attitude to swimming. At first, only men swam. They swam naked - there were no women to see them.Cover up!By the 1880’s and 90’s visiting the beach was very fashionable and a lot of people went there, especially in warm weather. They wore everyday street clothes - much more than people wear at the beach today.In those days, people believed they should cover most of their body so it would not be seen by the opposite sex. Special bathing costumes(服装) were designed for women. These costumes used a lot of cloth and were very heavy when wet, making it difficult to swim.Laws Made and Laws ChangedThe government decided to stop men swimming naked. It passed a law which forbade bathing between 6am and 7pm. Many people objected to this law and wrote letters to the government asking it to change the laws. In 1903, the laws changed; people could swim in the daytime, but they had to wear neck-to-knee costumes.The Shrinking CostumeAs time passed, swimming costumes became smaller and more convenient.At first men and women were covered from neck to knee. Then the arms became bare. Then more of the legs were uncovered. Each new change was regarded by many as shocking and rude and people wrote letters to the newspapers complaining about the new costumes. Nowadays some people go to special "nude (裸的) beaches" to swim naked.However, most people cover their bodies more than they did ten years ago -- not because they think bare skin is shocking -- but to protect their skin from the harmful rays of the sun.28．The climate of Australia _____.A.made European settlers think differently about swimmingB.change European settlers’ swimming costumeC.made European settlers hotterD.made European settlers swim naked29．During the late 19th century, swimmers should _____.A.hide when they see a person of the opposite sexB.cover their bodiesC.wear many heavy clothesD.take no notice of their clothes30．According to the law just before 1903, people must _____.A.not swim in the main daylight hoursB.only swim between 6am and 7pmC. have a bath at 6am and 7pmD.swim with neck-to-knee costumes between 6am and 7pm31．The last paragraph of the passage states that _____.A.people worry about getting skin cancer from too much sunlightB.people didn’t cover their bodies ten years ago.C.people are shocked by the sunD.people think it rude to swim with the smaller costumesD“Come on! All of us are cutting math. Who wants to take that quiz? We’re going to take a walk and get lunch instead. Let’s go!” says the coolest kid in your class. Do you do what you know is right and go to math class, take the quiz? Or do you give in and go with them?People who are at your age, like your classmates, are called peers. When they try to influence you how to act, to get you to do something, it’s called peer pressure. It’s something everyone has to deal with—even adults.Peers influence your life, even if you don’t realize it, just by spending time with you. You learn from them, and they learn from you. It’s only human nature to listen to and learn from other people in your age group.Peers can have a positive influence on each other. Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in the solar system. Or you got others excited about your new favorite book, and now everyone is reading it. Sometimes peers influence each other in negative ways. For example, a few kids in school might try to get you to cut class with them.It’s difficult to say “no”to peer pressure, but you can do it. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do.It can really help to have at least one another peer, or friend, who is willing to say “no”too. If you continue to face peer pressure and you’re finding it difficult to handle, talk to someone you trust, a parent, or a teacher. They can help you feel much better and prepare you for the next time you face peer pressure.32. With his words in the first paragraph, the kid is ________.A. planning some interesting activities after schoolB. talking about a dinner partyC. asking other kids to take a quiz with himD. encouraging other kids to cut a class33. According to the author, _________.A. peer pressure does kids more harm than goodB. math is the most difficult subject for most kidsC. kids today are under greater pressure than beforeD. peer pressure exists among people of all age groups34. It’s suggested in the last paragraph that the readers _______.A. make more close friends while at schoolB. learn to refuse their friends in a polite wayC. get support from someone else if it’s necessaryD. build closer relations with their parents and teachers35. What’s the best title for the text?A. Cutting a classB. Peer pressureC. Asking for helpD. Problems in school第二节 (共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分)根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。
