"The other is something else," Molly answered. "What's in it?" "Just something. Take it with you."He put both paper bags into his briefcase(公文包), kissed Molly and rushed off. At noon he opened Molly's bag and took out all the things: a small Teddy bear, two tiny sea shells, five small stones, and twelve coins...

I have forgotten what the argument was about, but I have never forgotten the lesson I learned that day.I believed that I was right and he was wrong, and Tony believed that I was wrong and he was right. Our teacher, a kind and smart lady, decided to teach us a lesson. She brought us to the front of the class andplaced him on one side of her desk and me on the other. In the middle of her desk was a large and round object. I could clearly see that it was black. The teacher asked us what colour the object was. To my surprise, Tony answered "white". I couldn't believe he said the object was white! "Clearly, it was black!". Another argument started between Tony and me, this time about the colour of the object.The teacher told me to go and stand where Tony was standing and told him to go and stand where I was standing. We changed places, and now she asked me what colour the object was. I had to answer, "White." It was an object with two differently coloured sides-from his side it was white, while from my side it was black. "Boys, now, what do you say?" The teacher smiled at us.Tony has been my best friend ever since.My teacher taught me a very important lesson that day: When you disagree with others, you'd better be in their shoes. That will help you look at the situation through their eyes, and truly understand their ideas and ways of thinking.21. What did the teacher do at first?A. She shouted at the boys.B. She called the boys' parents.C. She walked out of the classroom.D. She brought the boys to her desk.22. How did the writer feel when Tony answered "white" in Paragraph 2?A. Pleased.B. Surprised.C. Afraid.D. Thankful.23. From this lesson, the writer has learned that _______.A. great minds think the sameB. burn the candle at both endsC. stand in other people's shoesD. many hands make light workBKids are born for science. This idea may surprise you because science seems difficult to learn. Yet it really holds water and science learning is likely to make a great difference in kids'lives.The basic science is a mixture of thought and experiment called the scientific method. It's where you start with an idea, create a way to explain your idea, and show what you learned based on facts. Learning to follow this process helps you think logically(逻辑地) and carefully. These important thinking skills can be used in many areas of study. To give a child practice with these thinking skills is like giving vitamins(维生素) to a developing mind.One of the greatest things we can teach our children is to love learning. Learning science is a great way to do so. Children are intrigued by science because much of science is hands-on. It attracts most children. Nothing makes a child sit up and take notice like the "WOW!" of a great science showing.Science opens doors to many subjects at school. Building love for science can be helpful in other areas of study. For example, one cannot love science for very long without becoming good at its language—math! So, science encourages children to study math. An interest in science is an interest in how things were once understood compared to how they are understood now. As a result, studying science lends itself easily to studying history. And after you do an experiment, you need to write a lab report. So, writing becomes an important part of science.Science is the basic thing for much of our life. The science of farming shows how our food is produced; biomedical(生物医学的) science keeps us healthy; even our beds these days are designed according to scientific facts. We almost eat, sleep and breathe with the help of science! When we prepare the future voters(选民), creators and officials, it is important to make sure they are not only comfortable but also good at science.24. The expression "are intrigued by" in Paragraph 3 probably means ________.A. are interested inB. are satisfied withC. are good atD. are busy with25. The writer probably agrees that ________.A. children usually consider science boringB. science is too difficult for children to understandC. learning science can improve children's thinking skillsD. children who are good at writing can learn science well26. What is the passage mainly about?A. Why kids should learn science.B. How kids can make use of science.C. Why science is important for officials.D. What future voters should learn at school.CLike many writers, I'm a top master at procrastination (拖延症). When I should be working on a task, with the clock ticking towards my deadline, I'll sit there watching meaningless interviews or cat videos on the Internet.According to the traditional thinking—I, along with my friend procrastinators, have a time management problem. By this view, I haven't fully understood how long my task is going to take and I'm not paying enough attention to how much time I'm actually wasting on videos. With better scheduling (时序安排), I will stop procrastinating and get on with my work.Increasingly, however, psychologists (心理学家) are realizing this is wrong. Researchers in the UK have showed that procrastination is a matter with managing our emotions, not our time. The task we're putting off is making us feel bad—perhaps it's boring, too difficult or we're worried about failing—and to make ourselves feel better in the moment, we start doing something else, like watching videos.One research to encourage the emotional view of procrastination was published by researchers at Case Western Reserve University. They first made people feel bad (by asking them to read sad stories) and showed that this increased their repeated habit to procrastinate by playing video games instead of preparing for the test they knew was coming. Following studies by another team also showed feeling down only makes people procrastinate more if they have fun things to divert (分散) their attention.This fresh view on procrastination is beginning to open up exciting new methods to reducing the habit. A method, which is based on Acceptance and Commitment Therapy (接纳与承诺疗法), seems especially proper. It argues that ordering choices and actions that help you get closer to get things done can keep you away from the unpleasant feelings. So the next time you're going to procrastinate, make your focus as simple as "What's the next action?" Focusing on this one-step question takes your mind off your feelings and onto easily achievable action. "Our research and lived experience show very clearly that once we get started, usually we're able to keep going. Getting started is "everything".27. Traditionally, we think procrastinators are those who ________ .A. are usually responsible peopleB. have difficulty managing timeC. enjoy watching videos while writingD. can get work done with better organization28. What can we learn from Paragraph 4?A. Low emotions lead to procrastination.B. Procrastination improves your moods.C. Test-takers can not escape bad emotions.D. Procrastinators prefer games to sad stories.29. Why does the writer suggest focusing on one simple question?A. Because it shortens the process.B. Because it may reduce unpleasant feelings.C. Because it can fix time management problem.D. Because it encourages the wildest imagination.30. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?A. To introduce new studies about procrastination.B. To compare different reasons for procrastination.C. To discuss what effect procrastination brings about.D. To explain how good time management matters in life.四、任务型阅读-简答（本大题共1小题，共10.0分）31. Have you ever paid for educational podcasts (播客) or live videos? Most of you will say yes. "Pay-for-knowledge" has been more and more popular these years. These products are from language learning to gardening or baby-caring. Everything can be found online at this moment,"pay-for-knowledge" is on the rise.Why is "pay-for-knowledge" industry developing so quickly? First, its development is based on the Internet. With a fast network and a smartphone, anyone who has passed the identity(身份) check can be an online teacher, and anyone with an online account(账户) can buy "pay-for-knowledge" products at an affordable price. Second, people are afraid to miss any information. On one hand, people hope for more useful information. On the other hand, such information is usually at the handsof experts(专家) who serve well-known companies or universities. The need to learn new skills in today's job market also pushes people to learn on such educational podcasts.The industry of "pay-for-knowledge" carries three benefits. It promises possibilities of turning information into money. For example, it is good for the development of our country and it can help sellers make money. Besides, buyers can enjoy self-growth from it. What's more, it shows people's respect for knowledge.However, the fast development of "pay-for-knowledge" has a few problems. For one, the market is full of eye-catching words such as "How to Be an Industry's Expert in 5 Hours" and "15 Classes to Be a Master of Appreciating (欣赏) Classical Music", which sound like if you pay for it, you are sure to succeed. For another, a large number of customers buy them just for showing off. In fact, those who have really had self-growth after buying online courses may be the kind of people who need them least, because they are those who have the ability to learn by themselves.In general, the best is the one that fits you most. "Pay-for-knowledge" may be used as a good start for self-growth. Be careful! Or, your dream of success may not come true.(1) What is the development of "pay-for-knowledge" industry based on?___________________________________________________________(2) Who can buy “pay-for-knowledge” products at an affordable price?___________________________________________________________(3) How many benefits does “pay-for-knowledge” industry have?___________________________________________________________(4) What do you think of “pay-for-knowledge”?

For most of us, it takes a long time to learn how to make something tasty, but not for Remmi Smith. Still a teenager, she’s already creating fantastic dishes. She’s also becoming well known for her Italian salad dressing, which is delicious. And with her knowledge of social media, she’s making sure that everyone knows she’s here!Remmi, who was born in China, now lives in the USA. She is just 16. She has already starred in two shows on cooking and her book of healthy recipes has recently come out. From the age of four, Remmi helped in the kitchen by preparing vegetables. By the age of seven, Remmi was a real food lover who could cook complete meals for her family. Remmi began making videos for fun. Her mother videoed her while she was cooking and put the videos online. A local TV station broadcast them. They then asked Remmi to create another show for them.That show is mainly about Remmi’s interest, which is getting teenagers to take healthy eating seriously. She believes that when young people make their own food, they care more about what they eat. Remmi works with a company in the USA which shows her videos in school dining halls. About 3.5 million students watch her every day!Remmi believes that young people can create a healthy meal for their family which doesn’t cost a lot. Her delicious recipes include vegetable paella and strawberry kebabs. In fact,strawberries, which are Remmi’s favorite food, appear in other recipes, including strawberry sandwich!Her latest idea is a healthy-snack service. For a monthly subscription（订购）, you receive snacks, which include fruit sticks and popcorn, and fun cooking activities that help you develop a healthy lifestyle.36.When could Remmi make complete family meals?A. From the age of four.B. By the age of seven.C. Over the age of nine.D. At the age of sixteen.37.Why did the local TV station ask Remmi to make another show?A. To create more recipes.B.

A Teenage Star of TV ShowsBThe Chinese pingfeng (folding screen) is an ancient invention and traditional Chinese furniture. Its earliest common use dates from the Han Dynasty. The term pingfeng means protection from wind, showing its purpose at the very beginning.As time passes, it has been made into different sizes with colourful paintings. On screens usually appears a dragon. It’s a symbol of light, growth and life-giving water. It also stands for nobility and power. The peacock, a beautiful bird, can be seen on screens, too. It’s a symbol of everlasting life. Beautiful flowers, which mean wealth and good luck, are also chosen as a popular design of the pingfeng. All the designs carry people’s beautiful wishes.Behind the pingfeng lies an interesting story. In the past the unmarried daughter of a rich family was not supposed to see or be seen by men except her father, brothers or very close male cousins. When an admirer paid a visit however, she might take a secret look at him from a screen behind which she would be completely hidden. Her father would discuss poems with the young man and ask him to create one. If the daughter and her father were satisfied with the young man’s poem and his looks, she might agree to take him as a husband.Today the pingfeng is back in fashion for its beauty and its practical use as furniture. Acting as a moving wall or divider, it can be the perfect match for modern sofas and walls, which adds style to them.The pingfeng is more than beautiful furniture.40.What was the pingfeng used for at the very beginning?A.

If we couldn’t have these, we might as well sit in front of the television on a quietevening.Pleasure is an important part of the quality of life, but by itself it doesn’t bring happiness. When people think further about what makes a worthy life, they tend（倾向于）to move beyond pleasant memories and begin to remember other events, other experiences that overlap（有重叠）pleasurable ones but fall into a group with a separate name: enjoyment. Enjoyable events take place when people have not only satisfied a need or met some earlier expectation, but also achieved something unexpected.Enjoyment is characterized by a sense of curiosity, of achievement. Playing a tennis game that improves one’s ability is enjoyable, as is reading a book that shows things in a new light, as is having a conversation that leads us to express ideas we didn’t know we had. None of these experiences may be especially pleasurable when they are taking place, but when we think back on them afterwards, we would say, “That really was fun” and wish they would happen again. After an enjoyable event we know that we have changed, and grown.Experiences that give pleasure can also give enjoyment, but the two feelings are quite different. For example, everybody takes pleasure in eating. However, to enjoy food is more difficult—you have to pay enough attention to a meal, so as to sense and tell its various tastes. As this example suggests, we can experience pleasure without any psychic energy, while enjoyment happens only as a result of full attention. A person can feel pleasure without any effort, as long as certain parts in his brain are stimulate（刺激）. But it’s impossible to enjoy a tennis game or a book without full attention. It’s for this reason that pleasure does not last long, nor does it make us grow. Growth requires full attention to goals that are new, that are relatively challenging.Without enjoyment, life will go on, and it can even be pleasant. But it depends heavily on luck and the external（外部的）environment. To achieve personal control over the quality of experience, however, we need to learn how to build enjoyment into what happens day in, day out.47.You will most probably experience enjoyment when you ______.A. buy expensive shoesB. order a delicious mealC. talk with friends for new ideasD. sit quietly in front of a television48.What do you know about pleasure and enjoyment from the passage?A. Enjoyment grows out of pleasure.B. Pleasure and enjoyment come hand in hand.C. Pleasurable experience are part of enjoyable ones.D. Some experiences provide both pleasure and enjoyment.49.The words “psychic energy” in Paragraph 4 are closest in meaning to ______.A. attentionB. interestC. abilityD. knowledge50.The writer probably agrees that ______.A. feeling pleasure stops people from achieving growthB. feeling enjoyment comes with achieving growthC. a worthy life depends on luck and environmentD. pleasure is the key to a happy and worthy life第二节阅读填空（共5小题；每小题1分，满分5分）Have you heard of Oliver Twist or Peter Pan?

Do you let a bad driver or an impolite waiter make your day in a mess? However, the mark of your wise reply to the actions is how 1 you can come back to smiling tothem. Sixteen years ago, I learned this 2 at the back of a taxi in New York.We were driving fast in the right lane (车道) when suddenly, a black car jumped 3 a parking space right to front of us. My taxi driver stepped on the brake (刹车) as hard as possible, and at the 4 moment our car stopped just one inch from the back of the other car.I couldn’t believe what happened next. The driver of the car turned his head around and started 5 bad words. But then here’s what really 6 me. My taxi driver just smiled and waved (挥手致意) at the guy. I said, “Why did you just do that? This guy nearly 7 us!” He told me what I now remember “The Law of the Garbage (垃圾)Truck.”He said, “Like garbage trucks, many people run around full o f garbage, full of anger, and full of regret. 8 their garbage increases more and more, they look for a place to pour it. If you let them, they’ll pour it on you. So when someone wants to pour it on you, don’t feel hurt. Just smile, wave, and move on. You will be 9 .”I started thinking: how often do I let Garbage Trucks run right over me? And how often do I take their garbage and 10it to other people? Then I knew clearly what I should do.I began to see Garbage Trucks. I see the bad mood people are carrying. I see them coming to pour it. And like my taxi driver, I don’t feel hurt. I just smile, wave, and move on。

Mann simply stated the value of books, but some researchers have found evidence that people with books in their homes really do gain a window on the world.A new study in the journal Social Science Research, published in October, suggests that people who grow up with more books are more likely to have educational advantages, and to achieve more in life, than people who grow up without them.In the study, over 160,000 adults from 31 countries and regions were asked about the number of books there were in their homes when they were 16 years old. They were then given tests in literacy (读写能力), numeracy (计算能力) and information communication technology.The research shows that the number of books for each household varies greatly from country to country. For example, the number of books is 27 in Turkey, 143 in the UK and 218 in Estonia. But “the total effects of home library size on literacy ar e large everywhere”.The researchers found that people who had only lower levels of secondary education but had a large number of books at home got a similar score as university graduates who grew up with only a few books.The Guardian newspaper commented that “bookish adolescence makes for a good deal of educational advantage.”“Adolesce nt exposure to books can compensate for shortcomings not only in adult literacy but also numeracy: its impacts are equal to additional years of education,” Sikora told Science Alert.Apart from the educational benefits, growing up with more books also plays an important role in adult success.Through analyzing their personal information, researchers found that people surrounded by books in adolescence are on average more successful in adulthood than those who had only few books at a younger age.“Early exposure to books in the parental home matters because books are an basic part of routines and practices that enrich lifelong cognitive competencies (认知能力)”, Sikora told Science Alert. These competencies are important to future development.Without doubt, the fact that we are moving toward a digital era could weaken the importance of printed books. For now, however, “they still seem to maintain quite a large positive benefit, which shows no sign of abating (减弱)”, researchers wrote in the paper.1．What’s the study mainly about?A．Reading habits of different countries.B．The benefits of growing up with more books.C．How reading books brings educational advantages.D．The impacts of books on people of different ages.2．How many books do an average British family own, according to the study?A．27. B．32. C．143. D．218.3．The underlined phrase “compensate for” probably means ______.A．make up for B．result in C．prepare for D．draw attention to4．According to the study, people who read more books in adolescence are likely to ______.a. have better literacyb. achieve more in adulthoodc. have better communication skillsd. achieve more pleasant personalitiesA．ac B．bc C．cd D．abC15、Take a Bus, a Plane or a TrainToday is February 1st.

I was going to spend four months in France, learning French. Alice, my sister, was going as well. We arrived at the airport, feeling nervous and excited.The flight went by quickly because I was so busy talking with Alice about our trip and how different French life might be from life back home. We decided that we shouldn't spend too much time together in France. We knew we wouldn't learn much French if we did that. Even though we agreed, I was worried that I wouldn't be able to say much the whole time I was in France. However, when my host family(接待家庭) met me, I knew from the mother's warm smile that everything would be OK.It was still a bit stressful at first to try to understand and communicate, but after a couple of weeks it became easier. I spent a lot of time with a lovely girl who was a friend of the family, and we got on very well. In fact, I learned lots of interesting words from her, you know, the kind of things you don't find inbooks! I had one shameful moment. I used the wrong word when I was talking to a waiter, but he was relaxed about it and told me not to be afraid of making mistakes.When the time came to say goodbye to my host family, I was very sad to leave. However, I have brought back some wonderful memories from this experience. The most important thing I've learned is that if you're open-minded and positive(积极的) about learning a language, then it's much easier. I've come back much more confident in my ability. I've even started watching a television show in French and I'm surprised to find that I can understand a lot more than before my stay in France.21. Why didn't the writer and Alice want to spend too much time together in France?A. Because they talked too much during the flight.B. Because they didn't get on well with each other.C. Because they knew life in France would be different.D. Because they wanted to get more chances to practice French.22. How did the writer feel when she started her life in France?A. Relaxed.B. Stressed.C. Confident.D. Surprised.23. From the experience, the writer learned _______.A. how to make friends with strangersB. how to live comfortably in a new countryC. to keep an active attitude toward language learningD. to correct mistakes immediately after making themBWith numbers of books and courses helping us develop self-discipline(自律), it seems quite obvious that self-discipline is highly valued. However, this may overstate the importance of being self-disciplined and make people worried. People with such worries are likely to push themselves harder and harder. Once their energy is burned out or their willpower breaks down, they will feel upset.In fact, being self-disciplined isn't about leading a restrictive(约束的) lifestyle. Although it seems to be usually connected with self-control and willpower, it still has to be based on respect for one's own free will and effective methods. Some people are caught in a "self-discipline trap(陷阱)" where they always work hard, and mistakes, failure and laziness are not allowed. Is this really the way we can improveourselves, or is it a way to make things worse? Even though staying self-disciplined is beneficial forself-improvement, it's never something everyone must do in life.How can we avoid being over self-restrained? Here are some ideas.Follow your own energy flow and limit. Going against it may produce unpleasant results. For example, sleeping for five hours and then forcing yourself to get up for a morning run. The harm caused by not getting enough sleep may outweigh the good brought by running.Follow your own heart. Information on the Internet has created a hidden competitive environment where many good examples lead the trends(潮流). People who see these are more likely to follow. Listen to your own voice instead of others. Think and decide whether it is what you truly want.Change your goals and expectations. Some who are over self-restrained may set unrealistic goals and expectations. They may never stop until it's perfect, even though nothing could really be perfect. For example, losing 10 pounds in a week. It then easily goes into an unhealthy cycle where they always set goals but never reach them.Work smart instead of working hard. We might all have ever been stuck in a situation where, no matter how much effort we've made, the progress is slow. Have you found better ways to do it instead of just trying harder? For example, if I have a goal of learning 20 new words each day, I might follow the Forgetting Curve(遗忘曲线) to do it more effectively.24. What is Paragraph 2 mainly about?A. The meaning of self-discipline.B. The ways to develop self-discipline.C. The effects of being self-disciplined.D. The reason for being self-disciplined.25. To avoid being over self-restrained, we should _______.A. consider other people's adviceB. follow good examples on the InternetC. set up achievable goals and expectationsD. raise our energy limit to get good results26. Why does the writer use the example of learning new words in the last paragraph?A. To stress the value of working hard.B. To explain how effort influences progress.C. To suggest a good way of learning a language.D. To show the importance of finding effective methods.CGossip is the information passed from one person to another about other people's lives. You may think gossip is awful. Even dictionary entries suggest that it is often unkind or untrue. And yet this common idea is unreasonable.Firstly, a study by Robbins and Karan in 2019 shows that gossip common but much of it is just people sharing information. For their study, 467 people's conversations were recorded. Robbins and Karan found that, on average, these people gossiped for 52 minutes a day, with three quarters of the time spent communicating non-evaluative(非评价性的) information. Only about 14 percent(百分比) of the gossip was considered malicious, a much smaller percentage than the common idea suggests, although to be fair, that was double the percentage of positive gossip.Scientists consider gossip to be an important reason why our ancestors(祖先) were able to stay alive. It helped spread important news, but more importantly, it provided information about who was trustworthy and who might not work well with others in a group. It allowed humans to build small communities with those who could be trusted, ensuring a greater chance of living. Today, it seems that not much has changed. Gossip still allows us to form, relationships and find out who we can work with best. Gossip also explains the principles(行为准则) of our society. When we hear someone criticize a person's behaviour, it is obvious that such behaviour is unacceptable and should not be copied. That's not to say we should pay attention to everything we hear, but it gives us direction.Of course, these days, our world is changing the nature of gossip. Our networks are now larger, and some gossip can spread like wildfire. Our obsession(痴迷) with gossip about well-known peoplemay seem unimportant to some, but it serves to bring people closer. Problems come up when gossip includes untrue information. This kind of gossip can destroy people's lives.So scientists say that it's important to share information that is unlikely to hurt others. If we fail to do this, people will see us as someone who can't be trusted and may even avoid us. Similarly, gossiping to improve one's own place in society is unacceptable. It's best to share information that may act as a warning to others or encourage them to behave better. It's these things that normally push people together rather than make them turn away from each other.27. The word "malicious" in Paragraph 2 probably means _______.A. unimportantB. harmfulC. meaningfulD. interesting28. What can we learn from Paragraph 3?A. People who gossip a lot in a group are always criticized.B. People who like gossiping can work well together in a group.C. Gossip helps people build relationships today as well as in the past.D. In the past, people who liked gossiping were considered untrustworthy.29. The writer probably agrees that _______.A. we shouldn't spend too much time gossipingB. gossiping to move up in society should be avoidedC. gossip about well-known people should be limitedD. we shouldn't stay close to people who like gossiping30. What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?A. To discuss the effects of gossiping.B. To state the reason why gossip is common.C. To remind people of the problems of gossiping.D. To guide people to be responsible when gossiping.四、任务型阅读-简答（本大题共1小题，共10.0分）31.The Library With No RulesWhen you walk by Hernando Guanlao's home on Balagtas Street, downtown Manila, you will see thousands of books on shelves and on the stairs. Each one is free to anyone who wants it."People can borrow, take home, bring back or keep," says Guanlao. "Or they can share and pass on to another. But basically they should just take, take!" He thinks books need to live, and they're only alive if they are being read. "The act of giving books makes your life meaningful," says Guanlao.The Reading Club 2000, as the project is called, began more than twenty years ago. "My parents gave me my love of reading," he says. "I started the club to honour them and to do some kind of community service. So I put my old books—and my brothers' and sisters', maybe 100 in all—outside, to see if anyone was interested."It took a while for people to work out that this was a library. It never closed and there were no rules in it. But the project, offering everything from paperbacks to fashion magazines, technical boaks and school textbooks, is becoming popular.The success of the project is helped by the fact that the country, with a population of 92 million, has fewer than 700 public libraries, and many people cannot afford to buy books. Luckily, the project is spreading. Guanlao takes boxes of books into—Manila's neighbourhoods himself. He has also helped friends set up similar projects in ten other places around the country, and encouraged students to donate(捐赠) books.Aurora Verayo, from a town several hours' drive from Manila, says she came to see Guanlao to donate books, but he encouraged her to open her own library. "I'm going a step further and offering reading activities for children," she says. Mark, 16-year-old student, is organizing a book donation with friends. "We've collected." he says, "We're taking them to some poor books so far, and we expect many more, areas next month. Books open minds. A book can take you anywhere."(1) What does Guanlao think of books?_______________________________________(2) Why did Guanlao start the Reading Club 2000?__________________________________________________(3) What was special about Guanlao's library?______________________________________________(4) What do you think of the Reading Club 2000?

Anyway, cleaning couldn't be that difficult, could it?There was a lot more to the job than you might expect. First, I'd collect all the things I needed and put them in my cart. Then I set to work on cleaning the rooms. I made the beds, cleaned the baths, and did some other work. It wasn't fun. In fact, it was unpleasant, especially at the beginning. The first time I made a bed, I didn't do it correctly, and the manager made cart me do it all over again. One of my workmates showed me what to do and I took notes, just like I did in school. It took ages for me to get it right but when I did, I felt happy and confident.Although it wasn't well paid, the job enabled me to party with my friends. It wasn't just the money that made it all worthwhile. For the first time I was able to spend time with adults other than my parents and teachers. If I didn't want to do the work, these grown-ups wouldn't try to force me to do it. It was up to me to push myself. That was one very important lesson for me to learn and one I never got taught in school.My time at the hotel also taught me that you can learn new skills from any kind of work, even a job you never thought you'd do. And at the same time, it showed me where I didn't want to be in the future. And I didn't want to be in a hotel cleaning for the rest of my life. I was looking for something a lot more challenging.21. What did the writer think of her job when she started doing it?A. Interesting.B. Easy.C. Unpleasant.D. Unimportant.22. Who pushed the writer to work when she didn't want to?A. The writer herself.B. Her parents.C. The hotel manager.D. Her workmates.23. From the story, we know that the writer ______.A. regretted doing the jobB. disliked her workmatesC. was satisfied with the paymentD. was open to learning new thingsBHave you considered being a writer? Maybe this is a dream you've had ever since you were young. But writing for a living is not easy, and before you start, you should be sure that you are doing it for the right reasons and go in with your eyes open.To be a writer, you need to get used to being alone. A writer must be ready to spend at least five hours a day alone, often in front of the computer. At the same time, remember that good stories are created through a lot of effort.Another question might be how to tell if you have a talent for writing. Perhaps you always got good grades at school for your writing, or you worked on school newspapers, or won prizes for your writing. Perhaps you may have had articles published(出版) in magazines. This shows you have good writing skills.Originality is always considered the heart of writing. It is important that tired old ideas and words do not appear in your writing. From the first page, the story should be like nothing anyone has ever read before. Try to surprise your reader at every turn and make your reader say, "Wow! I never expected that to happen!"Even though there are a lot of challenges, if you still want to be a writer, here are some ideas that might help. First, remember that your first draft(草稿) will never be perfect. The value of the first draft may be to start developing and organizing your ideas. Many successful writers write, rewrite, and rewrite again.When you write, put yourself in the place of the reader. Try to write stories that you would like to read yourself. If you are writing a passage only because you have to, your reader is certainly not going to enjoy it. Most, if not all, good writers read as much as possible. When you read other people's work, think about what makes for good writing and use that in your own writing. As a writer, you are a kind of educator. Make sure that you are well-informed about the things you write about.Doing research has helped many writers create more interesting and realistic stories. Writing is different for everyone. If writing is really for you, chances are you already know it deep down and have done for some time. If so, good luck!24. What is the most important thing for a writer?A. Aloneness.B. Interest.C. Creativity.D. Talent.25. The writer probably agrees that _______.A. writers should do research about what is writtenB. successful writers should write the first draft perfectlyC. writers should ask readers for advice about what to writeD. good writers should avoid following other writers’ writing styles26. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A. Are You Talented at Writing?B. Do You Want to Be a Writer?C. Is Writing Different for Everyone?D. Do You Need Practice to Be a Writer?CBeing thankful and expressing it to others is good for our health and happiness. It also helps us build trust and closer relationships with the people around us.These benefits have mostly been seen when two people are involved: one person gives thanks and the other receives thanks. Now, a new study suggests that expressing gratitude(感谢) not only improves one-to-one relationships, but could bring whole groups together—inspiring(激发) a will to help and connect in people who simply see an act of gratitude.In this study, Sara Algoe and her team ran several experiments to find out how seeing gratitude influences people's feelings toward the thankful person and the person who is thanked.In one experiment, participants(参与者) were tasked with reading a movie review draft and underlining eye-catching parts for the reviewer's benefit. First they saw an example. Several lines of text were underlined, as the task required, but many mistakes were also corrected, showing effort that went beyond the task. Some participants could see a handwritten note from the reviewer saying, "Thank you so much for catching those mistakes!"Afterward, participants underlined parts in another article by the reviewer. Then researchers counted how many mistakes participants corrected, and asked them how much they might like to be friends with the reviewer.The results showed that participants who had seen a note of gratitude were more willing to correct mistakes and help out, and more likely to want to become friends with the reviewer, than those who hadn't.Algoe and her team also discovered from other survey questions that participants wanted to help and connect with the person receiving the gratitude. "That's because receiving gratitude marks you as a person who is effective at being supportive or helpful," says Algoe.These findings show that expressing gratitude not only strengthens the relationships between the people involved but also influences the people who see it in ways that could reverberate throughout a group. If people in a group notice others' good acts and thank them for their kindnesses, the whole group could be encouraged to be kinder to one another.Does this mean we should all express gratitude more often? Yes. We can give a hug, bring a gift of flowers, or just say thank you. Gratitude expression seems to be a special kind of emotional experience that is great for building relationships.27. What do we know about the experiment?A. Participants tried to make friends with the reviewer.B. Participants were asked to write a movie review draft.C. Participants were thanked for underlining eye-catching parts.D. Participants who saw a thank you note corrected more mistakes.28. Which of the following best matches the findings of the study?A. Tony is thanked a lot because he always helps others.B. Susan and Mike are friends and they always help each other.C. Linda is supportive in a group and becomes the group leader.D. Amy wants to be friends with John because he is thanked a lot.29. The words "reverberate throughout a group" in Paragraph 8 probably mean _______.A. attract more people to join a groupB. have an effect on everyone in a groupC. help group members develop their strengthsD. provide opportunities for everyone in a group30. What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?A. To introduce how to express gratitude properly.B. To explain why people show and receive gratitude.C. To encourage people to show thankfulness to others.D. To remind people of the importance of helping others.四、任务型阅读-简答（本大题共1小题，共10.0分）31. Cinema, but Not as We Know ItA friend recently asked me if I'd like to go to the cinema. Being a huge fan of the big screen, I said yes. I usually go to the cinema once or twice a week, so it's normal for me to spend a lot of money on the latest film. But when she told me the ticket cost £105, I was surprised. What's more, she said I'd receive my personalised character by email. Character?Was I going to act in the film? I prefer watching films to performing in them. And since when did it cost more than a hundred pounds to go to the cinema? Still, my friend was really interested in it, so I handed the money over.Then I carried out some online research into what I was spending my money on, I realised that I'd signed up for an immersive(沉浸式的) cinema experience. This is a type of cinema where both actors and the audience(观众) take part in a remake of a classic film. Before the performance, you receive information about your character, and you need to spend time getting to know the character.You also need to buy a costume(戏服). You need to dress and act like your character in theperformance.When I arrived, I was greatly surprised at how professional(专业的) everything looked. The set, music, and lighting were all wonderful. I felt like I was actually in the film, which, of course, is the whole point of this experience. It was a remake of an old film, so everyone was dressed in old-style clothes. I'd thought mine was pretty good, but when I saw how much effort others had made, I felt uneasy. If you don't enjoy dressing up, you'd better think twice about going. There was a mix of professional actors who played the main characters and members of the public, like me, who were given unimportant roles to play. The professional actors were fantastic and really supportive. They offered lots of encouragement to all of us.Was it worth the ticket price? I'd say so, yes. Would I go again? Of course, yes! But I probably need to go to a few acting classes first.(1) How did the writer feel about the price of the ticket at first?____________________________________________________(2) What do you need to do before performing in an immersive cinema?__________________________________________________________________________(3) How did the professional actors help the members of the public?______________________________________________________________________(4) Would you like to have an immersive cinema experience?

This is to see what Chinese character the number sounds like. For example, the Chinese word for the number 8 sounds like the word for “making a fortune”. So, people think it is a very lucky number. Some people spend a lot of money to have 8s in their phone numbers. The opening time of the Beijing Olympics began at 8:08 p.m. on August 8, 2008.The number 9 is also a lucky number. It is something to do with the emperors of China. There were nine dragons on emperors’robes(龙袍). Today, 9 often stands for “long lasting”. That’s why close friends always use 99 or 999 to describe their friendship. So what’s a “bad luck” number in China? It might be 4. Many Chinese people see 4 as a “bad luck” number. Because it sounds like the Chinese character for “death”.Be cause of this, many buildings don’t have the fourth floor, and just call it the fifth floor. In Hong Kong, some buildings eve n don’t have all floors numbered with 4, such as, 4、14、24、34 and all 40-49 floors.

Some officials suggested that school hours for children aged 7 to 12 should be reduced, and that they should be1．to spend at least an hour a day on team sports.All work and no play makes children depressed. Becky, an 8-year-old girl, used to be happy when she finished classes every day, but now, life has become unhappy. To make sure she has enough time for the lessons, she has to study until 11 at night toSome ideas are offered for helping cultivate(培养) kids’ talents. The ideas2．cutting down classroom hours, introducing more team sports for children, getting parents to stop putting too much pressure on children and some other suggestions. It is believed that all these can help train young people to be confident.“I used to go to the park with my parents on weekends before because I like playing tennis with my dad and I can play well,” a boy said, “But now, I3．have time to do that any more.”“I would like to try other things, such as drawing,” Nara said.

But can it help kids lose weight In the first study to look at the influence of liter ature on overweight teenagers, researchers at Duke Children’s Hospital discovered that reading the right type of novel may m ake a difference.The Duke researchers asked overweight girls aged 9 to 13 who were already in a weight loss program to read a novel called Lake Rescue. It was carefully created with the help of pediatric experts (儿科专家) to include specific healthy lifestyle and weight management guidance, as well as positive messages and strong role models.Six months later, the Duke researchers found the 31 girls who read Lake Rescue experienced a significant decrease (fall) in their BMI scores (-.71%) when compared to a control group of 14 girls who hadn’t (+.05%), explained Alexandra C．Russell, a fourth-year medical student at Duke who led the study.“As a pediatrician, I can’t count the number of times I tell parents to buy a book that might provide useful advice, yet I’ve neverProgram where the research took place. “This is the first probable interventional (介入的) study that found literature can have a positive influence on healthy lifestyle changes in young girls.”Obesity(肥胖）is becoming more widespread in children, according to the CDC (Centres for Disease Control), which reports that 16 percent of children aged 6 to 19 are overweight or obese, a number that has increased since 1980. Researchers are looking at a lot of ways to help kids stay healthy, lose weight and be more active, but Armstrong says, “most don’t work very well. The weight loss choices that are effective typically involve taking powerful medications with side effects, or requirelong-lasting surgical procedures.”While the BMI decrease because of the book is small, Armstrong says any decrease in BMI is encouraging because BMI typically increases in children as they grow and develop. That’s okay as lon g as it follows a normal, progressing curve(曲线）. In overweight kids, however, BMI usually increases more quickly. “If their BMI percentile (百分位) goes down, it means they are either losing weight or getting tall and not gaining weight. Both are seen as positive signs in kids who are trying to lose weight,” she explains.1．What did researchers at Duke Children’s Hospital do?A．They tried to find out the reasons why kids are overweight.B．They focused on the research into girls’ healthy lifestyle.C．They studied whether literature could help lose weight.D．They helped the girls to choose right books to read.2．The underlined phrase “back up my recommendations” probably means “_____”.A．influence my research B．change my opinion C．respect my study D．support my advice3．Which of the following statements about the research is TRUE?A．The researchers interviewed the girls and studied information.B．Pediatric experts offered specific guidance to the research.C．16 percent of children aged from 9 to 13 were overweight.D．The girls read a certain novel and gave their reports.4．What’s the finding of the research?A．That the girls all grew tall and lost weight after 6 months.B．That the girls showed great interest in reading literature works.C．That the girls who read Lake Rescue had a decrease in BMI.D．That the girls needed to take powerful medications to lose weight.B14、An inventor has created his perfect girlfriend，a robot who can do the cleaning，remember his favorite drink and read thenewspaper to him．Le Trung，33，has spent 14000 dollars creating the robot．He made the robot look like a woman in her twenties with shiny hair and blue eyes．She can speak English and Japanese and she is also good at math．She can help Mr．Trung deal with his accounts．Mr．Trung comes from Canada．He said he has never had time to find a real girlfriend—so he designed and created a robot as his girlfriend using the latest technology．He used to be a software programmer．In order to make this robot，he has taken out his credit cards，sold his car and spent all his life saving．Now he is trying to find a corporate sponsor(赞助商)to help him complete and perfect his robot．He said his robot is what happens when science meets beauty．He said．“I want to make her look，feet and act as human as possible so she can be the perfect companion．I chat a lot with her and hope to improve her knowledge．”So far the robot can understand and speak 13,000 different sentences in English and Japanese，so she’s already fairly intelligent．She canrecognizefaces and says hello when any of his family comes around to visit．She helps him what to have for dinner and knows what drinks he likes．She doesn’t need holidays，food or rest，she will work almost 24 hours a day and never goes shopping．She is very patient and never complains．What a perfect woman she is !1．The robot can do many things EXCEPT _______ for the inventor．A．cleaning B．reading newspapersC．dealing with math problems D．cooking2．Why is he trying to find a corporate sponsor?A．He has spent all his life savings．B．He can’t change it better．C．He doesn’t know the software of computer．D．He doesn’t like working by himself．3．The Chinese meaning of the underlined word“recognize”in this passage is probably _______．A．描绘B．拍照C．记录D．识别4．This passage mainly tells us something about ．A．how to make a new robot．B．an inventor and his robot girlfriend．C．how much you need to make a robot．D．why the inventor made a robot as his girlfriend15、Do you have any online classes?

There I was, walking home at one in the morning after a tiring practice at the theater. With opening night only a week away, I was still learning my lines. I was having trouble dealing with my part-time job at the bank and my acting at night at the same time. As I walked, I thought seriously about giving up both acting and San Francisco. City life had become too much for me.As I walked down empty streets under tall buildings, I felt very small and cold. I began running, both to keep warm and to keep away any possible robbers(抢劫犯). Very few people were still out except a few sad-looking homeless people under blankets. About a block from my apartment, I heard a sound behind me. I turned quickly, half expecting to see someone with a knife or a gun. The street was empty. All I saw was a shining streetlight. Still, the noise had made me nervous, so I started to run faster. Not until I reached my apartment building and unlocked the door did I realize what the noise had been. It had been my wallet falling to the sidewalk.Suddenly I wasn’t cold or tired anymore. I ran out of the door and back to where I’d heard the noise. Although I searched the sidewalk anxiously for fifteen minutes, my wallet was nowhere to be found.Just as I was about to give up the search, I heard the garbage truck(垃圾车) pull up to the sidewalk next to me. When a voice called from the inside, “Alisa Camacho?” I thought I was dreaming. How could this man know my name? The door opened, and out jumped a small red-haired man with an amused look in his eyes. “Is this what you’re looking for?” he asked, holdi ng up a small square shape.It was nearly 3 a.m. by the time I got into bed. I wouldn’t get much sleep that night, but I had got my wallet back. I also h ad got back some enjoyment of city life. I realized that the city couldn’t be a bad place as long as pe ople were willing to help each other.1．（小题1）How did the writer feel when she was walking home after work?A．Cold and sickB．Lucky and hopefulC．Satisfied and cheerfulD．Disappointed and helpless2．（小题2）From the first paragraph, we learn that the writer was busy_____.A．solving her problem at the bankB．taking part in various city activitiesC．learning acting in an evening schoolD．preparing for the first night show3．（小题3）On her way home the writer_____A．lost her wallet unknowinglyB．was stopped by a garbage truck driverC．was robbed of her wallet by a man with a knifeD．found some homeless people following her4．（小题4）From the text, we can infer that the writer_____A．would stop working at nightB．would stay on in San FranciscoC．would make friends with cleaners.D．would give up her job at the bankⅤ.书面表达19、书面表达生活中总有一些事情让人觉得无奈，被人误解、考试失利、遭遇逆境等。
