Your feelings about other people, however, are really just show the way that you look at yourself.So you can allow others to be the mirror to see your own feelings of self-worth more clearly. And,you can see the people you don’t like as mirrors to show you what you are not accepting about yourself.To live peacefully with others, you will need to learn patience. A big challenge is to let your judgment of others be a lifelong research of yourself. Your task is to consider all the judgments you make onto others carefully and to begin to see whether you can use them to help yourself to become better.Several days ago I had a business lunch with a man who showed objectionable table manners. My first feeling was that he was impolite. When I noticed that I was judging him, I stopped and asked myself what I was feeling. I discovered that I was nervous to be seen with someone who was eating with his mouth open.I was very surprised to find how much I cared about how the other people in the restaurant judged me.Remember that your judgment of someone will not stop you from becoming like him. Just because I think my lunch partner impolite, it does not prevent me from looking or acting like him. In the same way, my patience to him wouldnot make me eat food with my mouth open.When you get close to life in this way, those whom you hate and those whom you love can be seen as mirrors, guiding you to discover parts of yourself that you dislike and to accept your greatest personalities you are proud of.1．When we judge others, we are really .A．beginning to know them B．treating them in a polite wayC．showing what we ourselves are D．telling them what they should do2．The writer felt nervous when he was with his lunch partner because .A．he was afraid to be influenced by his lunch partnerB．he was too angry to go on with his lunch any moreC．he was afraid he might be thought badly of by othersD．he was too surprised at the manners of his lunch partner3．What’s the meaning of the underlined word “objectionable”?A．unknown B．unacceptable C．unfair D．unreasonable4．What is the best title for this passage?A．An Impolite Lunch Partner B．Pay Attention to Our MannersC．How to Judge Others Properly D．Know Ourselves by Judging OthersB14、Y esterday I went to the nursing home to visit my grandma.

Ernie said quietly, “As a child until I left home at 18, Al came into my room every night, gave me a kiss and said, ‘Love you, son.’”Tears came to my eyes as I realized what a fool I had been to judge AI as a failure.

So why exactly does this happen?All spicy foods come from plants, and according to BBC News, these plants contain spicy items to keep animals from eating them. Eating or even just touching these plants leads to the familiar burning feeling that comes from spicy food.When we are eating the spicy food, our nose and eyes may also feel irritated(痒痒的)and go into defense mode(模式),producing tears or mucus(黏液)to protect themselves. The more irritated our nose and eyes feel, the more tears or mucus they produce. That explains the tearing eyes, running nose and burning mouth that come from eating spicy food.So if we know that our body will react to chilies this way, why is it that humans are the only animals to eat them? In fact, about 600 million Chinese, almost half of the national population, are chili eaters, reported website Huanqiu.According to BBC News, the human body responds to spicy food by giving off endorphins(内啡肷)-chemicals that create a sense of happiness.So if you're a big fan of spicy food, what can you do to reduce these symptoms(症状)?It's widely believed that a glass of ice water is the perfect way to lighten the burning sense caused by spiciness. How ever, as Live Science reported, it’s been proved that water will just make you feel worse by spreading the spicy items around your mouth.*Live Science suggested that the easiest way to put out the fire in your mouth is with dairy products, such as milk or yogurt. Dairy contains a special element named casein(酪蛋白),a type of protein which is able to dissolve the spicy component in chilies and reduce your pain immediately.Equally effective is a spoon of sugar, according to Live Science.So, if you're the kind of person who holds the belief" the spicier, the better", make sure to keep some dairy products in your refrigerator.1．A lot of animals don't like chilies because they_ _if they eat or touch them.A．produce tears or mucus B．their eyes feel happyC．have a feeling like burning D．their noses feel irritated2．Which of the following way is the right way of making the symptoms less serious while eating chilies according to the passage?A．We can try a spoon of salt.B．We can drink a bottle of ice water.C．We should drink a large cup of warm tea.D．We can eat some dairy products such as yogurt.3．Which of the following statements is TRUE?A．Some plants contain spicy items to protect their enemies.B．When we are eating chilies, our body creates a chemical that makes us happy.C．Eating or even just touching spicy plants will make us burn out with anger.D．Humans, as well as all the animals, like eating chilies very much.4．Why did the writer write the passage with a*?A．To show the best method to stop the burning feeling from spicy food.B．To tell readers how good and effective dairy products are.C．To tell readers why dairy products reduce pain.D．To show what dairy contains.5．Where can we probably read the passage?A．A chemistry textbook B．novelC．A science website D．A geography magazineF18、Can you write down a Chinese word being read to you? Sometimes it can be difficult when you find the word is not included in most dictionaries.Lu Jialei, 14, from Hangzhou Foreign Language School, won the CCTV Chinese Character (汉字) Spelling Contest on Oct 18th, 2013. About 160 people competed. The host read a word to the contestant, explained its meaning and gave sample sentences.

It went through many villages and forests. Then it reached a desert. The stream then thought, “I overcame so many difficulties. I should have no problem crossing this desert !” But when she decided to start her journey, she found herself gradually disappearing into the sand. After many tries, she still failed.“Maybe it’s my destiny(命运) ! I’m not d estined （命中注定）to reach the vast（广阔的）ocean in the legend（传说）, ”she thought sadly to herself.At this time, a deep voice came, saying, “If a breeze（微风）can cross the desert, so can a river.”It was the voice of the desert. But the little stream replied, “That’s because a breeze can fly, but I can’t.”“That’s because you stick to what you are. If you’re willing to give it up, and let yourself evaporate （蒸发）into the breeze, it can take you across, and you can reach your destination(目的地）,” said the desert in it s deep voice.The little stream had never heard of such a thing. “Give up what I am now and disappear into the breeze? No!No!”She could not accept this idea. After all, she had never experienced anything like it before. Wouldn’t it beself-destruction（自毁）to give up what she was now ?“How do I know if this is true?” asked the little stream.“The breeze can carry the vapor（蒸汽）across the desert and let it leave as rain . The rain will form a river again ,” answered the desert .“Will I still be what I am now?” asked the little stream.“Yes, and no. Whether you’re a river or vapor, your nature never changes. Y ou stick to the fact that you’re a river because you don’t know your inner nature,” answered the desert.Hearing this, the little stream went into the open arms of the breeze（微风）. which carried her to the next stage of her life.Perhaps you can try asking yourself these questions: What is my inner nature? What is it that I cling （紧抓）to? And what is it that I really want ?1．Before the stream reached the desert, she didn't ______ .A．believe in herself . B．meet any difficultiesC．want to cross the dessert D．worry about the journey to the ocean2．The underlined word "it " refers to______ .A．stream B．breeze C．vapor D．desert3．The desert suggests that the stream ______ in order to cross the desert.A．change its form B．disappear into the desertC．stick to what it is D．turn to another stream for help4．Finally the stream successfully crossed the desert with the help of ________.A．the rain B．the desert C．the breeze D．the mountain5．What is the main idea of the story ?A．The road to success is not always easy.B．We should do the right thing whatever others say.C．Our lives can be as difficult as the little streams.D．To succeed, sometimes we should change the way we used to be.B14、The next time you look up at the sky and see a cloud that looks like Mickey Mouse or your favorite fruit, look again. It may not be a cloud, but a Flogo -- a logo that flies. It's a new form of advertising in the sky that's never been used before. It's a different way to market your products, logos, and events.These funny logos are made with soap bubbles （肥皂泡）mixed with a little helium gas （氦气）,which makes them lighter than air and float in the sky. Special machines are used to make these new funny Flogos. The machine, which can be rented for $ 2,500 a day, can make a Flogo every 15-25 seconds.Flogos can fly much higher or lower if needed. They can last from a few minutes to an hour anywhere in the sky, depending on the weather conditions. Though they can fly up to 20, 000 feet, they usually float around at 300- 500 feet. Flogos are only white now, but people hope to have more colorful Flogos in the near future.Flogos are Green, 100% environmentally safe, because the soap used to make the Flogo comes from plants and leaves. So this fun way of advertising is healthy and good for the environment.1．Flogos are mainly used to _____.A．advertise in the sky B．make funny bubblesC．improve weather conditions D．see colorful clouds2．Why are Flogos healthy and good for the environment?A．Because they can float high and last for a long time in the sky.B．Because there is a little helium gas mixed with soap bubbles.C．Because the machines used to make them are special and expensive.D．Because the soap used to make them comes from plants and leaves.3．From the passage, we can infer that Flogos _____.A．can fly for hours in the sky all day B．can have different colors at presentC．may be influenced by the weather D．may be the cheapest way of advertising4．Which of the following can be the best title of the passage?A．Machines -- Used for Flogos! B．Flogos -- Logos that fly!C．Advertising -- Made of Fruits! D．Clouds -- Like Mickey Mouse!C15、April will bring a new product – the Apple Watch – into the market. Last week, the watch was firstly introduced by Tim Cook, Apple's CEO. The price of the watch will differ from $349 to $1,099, depending on its size, strap and whether it is a sports or regular version.Apple engineers and designers have put in a lot of thought and hard work into creating this "small screen" on your wrist(手腕). The "sensor" on the screen not only detects your finger, but knows the difference between when you are tapping, and when you are pressing harder.The watch also has “haptic feedba ck(触觉反馈)”. You can send personal messages to your friend - such as drawing a star or a special sign with your fingers, or tapping the watch, say 3 times, and your friend will receive those taps on their wrist.Besides telling the time, the watch will use 'bluetooth' to connect with your iPhone and show calls or text messages that come in.According to Tim Cook, the watch may open up a whole new area of applications that we had never thought of. Some car factories like BMW have developed an app that allows its car owners to open their cars with the watch. A 'Hotels' app may allow you to open the door to your hotel room without worrying about losing the smart-card. And finally, even airlines are jumping in - passengers may be able to simply wave their wrist to check into their flight.The biggest use of the watch, however, is as your personal fitness coach. The watch can measure your pulse (heartbeat) using a sensor at the bottom of the watch.

Each of over 40,000 characters needed to be written correctly.And each stroke(笔画)in a character had to be written in a certain order. Poetry was also an important form of art.Great poets were famous all over the country，but all educated people were expected to write poetry. During the Tang dynasty poetry was so important that writing poetry was part of the examinations to become a civil servant (文官)and work for the government.Chinese painting was often connected with calligraphy. It is one of the oldest artistic traditions in the world.The most traditional way of Chinese painting is known as “national”or“native painting(国画)”，which is quite different from Western painting.People can draw mountains，homes，birds，trees and water on it.1．What is the most famous types of works of art in ancient China?A．Calligraphy.

Not caring about the money, parents often send their children to the best schools or foreign countries. They also make their children take after-school classes. The Chinese believe that the more expensive an education is, the better it is. In the countryside, even poor parents are willing to buy computers for their children.But in fact, the best early education that parents can give their children is usually very cheap. They should teach their children the most important skills to help them become confident, happy and clever.Parents can achieve this by teaching children practical skills like cooking, washing and doing other chores. Teaching children to cook will improve many skills that they will need later in life. Cooking needs patience and time. It’s an enjoyable but difficult experience. A good cook always tries to improve his cooking skills, so he will learn to work hard and finish his job successfully. His result, a great dinner, will give him much satisfaction and a lot of self-confidence.Some old machines, such as a broken radio or a TV set that you give your child to play with, will make him interested. He will spend hours looking at them and trying to fix them. Perhaps your child will become an engineer when he grows up because these activities can teach a child to think. And that is the most important.1．How do Chinese parents us ually deal with their children’s education?A．All of them send their children abroad.B．They all buy computers for their children.C．They all let their children study in the best schools.D．They always try their best to give their children a better education.2．What does the underlined word “this” refer to?A．Teaching children the most important skills.B．Providing children with a better education.C．Helping children become confident, happy and clever.D．Providing children with enjoyable and relaxing experiences.3．What can we know from the passage?A．In China, most children are interested in after-school classes.B．For children, cooking is one of the most important skills.C．All parents like to use old machines to teach children to think.D．Most parents educate their children by teaching them to do the chores.4．What’s the main idea of the passage?A．Parents should know how to educate their children better.B．Parents should pay attention to their children’s school education.C．Parents are used to spending lo ts of money on their children’s education.D．Chinese children need to learn to do the chores when they are young.F18、Five Ways to Rock the Rest of the SemesterWith exams around the corner, how can you possibly pack in one more English word, let alone the causes of the Cold War? Don’t worry. Here is our handy guide to help youPower DownSo you stayed up too late last night reading Mockingjay for the fifth time. Oops! When you’re that fired, your schoolwork suffers. Instead of studying inefficiently while you are sleepy, allow yourself a 15-minute afterschool power nap. Studies show that even a few minutes of shut-eye can improve memory and concentration.Take NotesNot quite grasping that super complicated concept in your chemistry class? Y ou may need to change the way you take notes. Instead of recording every word your teacher says, try using visual hints like pictures, symbols and word bubbles. You can even switch computer fonts or pen color for the important stuff.Dream OnYour bed’s not just for zzz’s. Experts say it may be good to study in bed, too. Why? We’re able to absorb more right before bed because we’re less distracted and the new information stays in our minds as we sleep. So, slide into bed with a textbook or notes, read for 15 minutes, and then turn off the lights for some sweet and smart dreams.Brain FoodYou’re in the middle of a biology exam when your mind goes blank. You knew this stuff cold at home, but now you can’t tell a ribosome from a chloroplast. What’s going on? Your brain’s in need of some refueling. Have some snacks like apple slices or cheese before class, and have plenty of water, too. If your teacher doesn’t mind, pop in a piece of gum during an exam. Some scientists think the chewing increases the flow of oxygen to the brain.Smart MoveUgh! You’re taking an English test and you cannot remember the past participle of “understand”. What to do? Skip it. Test taking is all about timing, so don’t waste it on tricky questions. Move ahead and answer everything you know before ret urning to the ones you don’t. Chances are, once you get back to the toughies, you’ll recall the answer or at the very least, you’ll have a little more time to come up with one that works.1．When taking notes, we can do all these except ______.A．draw picturesB．change the typefaceC．switch on the computerD．colour the key points2．According to the passage, _____.A．it’s good to study under the covers for some time every dayB．you cannot skip the difficult questions and go on to the restC．you can have some snacks and drink enough water to refresh yourself in examsD．when taking notes, you should record whatever the teacher says3．What does the underlined phrase “knew this stuff cold” mean?A．had no clue about itB．were a cold fishC．knew it was coldD．were familiar withⅤ.书面表达19、三年的初中生活，你对自己的表现一定有满意的方面和不满意的方面。

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.

Last week, the question was answered.“The answer, is blowing in the wind,” said Michael Meyer. He is the lead scientist for Mars Exploration Program.It turns out solar winds from the sun are slowly stripping( 除掉) away Mars' air. That is what scientists explained at apress conference.Bruce Jakosky is the principal investigator on the MA VEN team. It is a spacecraft that collects information from Mars as it circles around the planet.Today, Mars has a thin atmosphere. It is cold and dry. ______"When we look at ancient Mars, we see a different type of surface. One that had valleys that looked like they were carved by water, lakes that were standing for a long period of time. We see an environment that was much more able to support liquid water."Recently scientists found a kind of liquid water that flows with salt down a mountain area of the planet. But, it is not always there. Scientists already knew that ice exists on Mars. So why is it important to find liquid water?"It means that we have a resource. And when we're looking at sending humans to Mars, water is one of the key things that we need to have. Not only for the astronauts to drink, but also to make oxygen and fuel."Sending humans to Mars will be in the 2030s. Those chosen might fly any number of space vehicles still in development. Human beings are developing rockets and spacecraft to get people to Mars. Scientists want to know how the human body reacts to being in space for long period of time.Whether there is life on Mars remains unanswered. But some scientists think there might be some kind of microbial life on the planet. Finding life on another planet would change the way we view the whole universe.1．What was the surface of ancient Mars like?A．It had thin air. B．It was dry.C．It had valleys that looked like they were carved by water.

In Jim and Kate’s house, “Father Christmas” is really Mr Green. Mr Green doesn’t climb down the chimney. He waits until the children are asleep. Then he quietly goes into their bedrooms and fills their stockings with small presents. When they were very young, Mr Green sometimes wore a red coat. But he doesn’t do that now.

This restriction (限制) was introduced in preparation for April 22nd, also known as Day Zero, on which the city will turn off all municipal (市政) water taps because of the overuse of fresh water these years.Over the past three years, Cape Town has suffered from a dangerous drought (干旱). That, along with a growing population of four million people, has caused water---supply drop strongly. As of November 2017, the water level in their largest water reservoir (水库) had dropped to 28% from 102.9% in 2014. That amount is expected to come down to 13 .5% by April 22, 2018.What's worse, the last 10% of the reservoir's levels are not potable (safe to drink) because of the dirt at the bottom.Firstly, researchers thought the cause of the drought was El Niño. Cape Town could become the first ever major city to run out of water. The government has called on people to conserve the little water they have left by way ofpr evention, including stopping car washing and filling up swimming pools. They are asking the public to cut showers to two minutes and reuse bathing water to flush the toilet.When Cape Town reaches Day Zero, there will be 200 water stations scattered(分布) across the town for people to receive the ir daily supply of 6.6 gallons. Armed guards will stand by to make sure there is no violence(暴力冲突) or theft.The water shortage has already influenced all parts of Cape Town. People's lives are being affected, with those in the tourism industry and businesses like car washing, seeing no chance to make a living. The relationship between people also becomes worse as neighbors are encouraged to report each other for water waste and the government plans to collect a drought tax(税收) as they are losing tax money because of the low water use.1．On April 22nd, people in Cape Town could have only _____ gallons of water for a whole day.A．13 .2 B．13 .5 C．10D．6 .62．The water shortage in Cape Town has become so serious because of ________ over the past three years．①a dangerous drought ②a growing population③overuse of fresh water ④fewer water reservoirsA．①②③B．①③④C．②③④D．①②④3．What does the word conserve in Paragraph 4 mean?A．produce B．protect C．promise D．prepare4．Which of the following statements is TRUE according to the passage?A．The water in the largest water reservoir has already dropped to 10%.B．Neighbours will learn to help each other when facing the serious problem.C．Tourism industry and business will not be influenced by the shortage of water.D．Armed guards will work to help keep the water stations in order when Day Zero comes.E17、One of the best-known American writers of children's books is Alfred Strong, or Doctor Strong, as he is better known to readers everywhere．Now, an art show called "Doctor Strong From Then to Now" is travelling around the United States．The pictures and drawings show the history of Doctor Strong．Doctor Strong first became famous almost fifty years ago when his first children's book was published (出版)．Since then, he has written forty—five books that have been sold more than one hundred million copies around the world．Doctor Strong's books are known for their easy use of words and colourful, hand drawn pictures．These drawings bring life to his imaginary creatures, The Cat in the Hat, Horton the Elephant, The Grinch Who Stole Christmas, and hundreds of others．The San Diego Museum, in California, organized the art show．It included about three hundred Doctor Strong's early drawings and some of his writings．Most of Doctor Strong's books, although written in a funny way, have serious messages．For example, in McElligot's Pool, he describes the danger of pollution．He discusses the arms race (军备竞赛) in The Butter Battle Book, written in nineteen eighty four．Doctor Strong says he never planned to write stories just for children．He says he writes stories that interest people of all ages．He says he uses easy words so that everyone, even a child, can understand．1．Doctor Strong first became famous in ________．A．his eighties when an art show was travelling around the United StatesB．his fifties when his drawings and writings were publishedC．nineteen eighty-four when his book McElligot's Pool was publishedD．his thirties when his first book was published2．Doctor Strong's books are very popular in America because ________．A．they are stories about animals such as cats, elephants and so onB．they are written in easy words with colourful picturesC．he organized the art show in CaliforniaD．they are written in a funny way3．His purpose in writing many such books is ________．A．to show his early pictures and drawingsB．to organize a special art show of his ownC．to make his readers laugh or smile when they read his booksD．not only to interest people but to show some serious social problems upF18、I volunteer with Meals on Wheels every Friday.

A recent report from the United Nations shows that wildfires are becoming more common and severe (严重的). Wildfires have caused many problems across countries. These fires destroy homes and businesses, take lives and also damage the environment.In the US* A wildfire in New Mexico, a state in the southwestern US, burnedfor nearly two months in 2022, damaging more than 315,000 acres (英亩) of land – an area about the size of the city of Los Angeles. * Wildfires have created seasonal pollution patterns in the northwestern US. Between 2002 and 2018, carbon monoxide (一氧化碳) levels increased every year for the month of August in the area.In Australia* In 2019 and 2020, Australian bushfires displaced (转移) millions, filled the air with deadly clouds of smoke and killed thousands of koalas.* Around 437,000 people were exposed to air with a PM2.5 concentration of at least 25 micrograms (微克) per cubic meter of air. That’s more than the 15 micrograms per cubic meter of air that the World Health Organization considers acceptable for short-term exposure.In China* In the last decade, the total number of forest fires in the country every year has increased to more than 2,000 cases.* Greater Hinggan Mountains (大兴安岭) is one of the important forestry bases in China. The government uses mountain watchtowers, forest cameras and aerial drones (无人机) to prevent forest fires in summer.11. Which of the following have wildfires NOT causedA.

He wanted to make a change.The boy from Hangzhou Entel Foreign Language School, together with several other students, worked on a project called “The Invisible (隐身的) are Significant”. They hoped more students would see and respect the “invisible” staff on campus. The project won aprize at China Thinks Big, a competition held by Harvard University and Tsinghua University to encourage teenagers to study social issues.“My team members and I sent questionnaires (问卷) to 158 students,” said Ding. “In one question, 56 percent of the students said they would greet those non-teaching workers, while only 17 percent strongly believe that every student should do so.”The team also observed interactions between students and workers. “When most students follow the rules of their teachers, one-third of the students go against the rules of the dormitory attendants (宿舍管理员),” said Ding. “It shows that students treat non-teaching staff differently from teaching staff.”The main reason, according to Ding, is that students know little about the work done by non-teaching staff. They also have few chances to communicate with them. Therefore, Ding’s team shot videos to show staff working around campus. They also held a basketball match between students and non-teaching staff to increase their interaction.“We’ve a lso made a series of stickers (贴纸),” said Ding. “We hope these cute images will help young people like the non-teaching staff more.”“The activity helped me understand that we can all make a positiveimpact (积极影响) through our creative ideas,” Ding said.14. Why did Ding Jiacheng and his teammates start the project “The Invisible are Significant”A. To win a prize at the competition China Thinks Big.B. To help non-teaching staff at his school find other jobs.C. So more students would see and respect non-teaching workers.D. To draw students’ attention to important social issues.15. What are Paragraphs 3-4 mainly aboutA. What jobs non-teaching workers do.B. How asking questions helps students learn.C. How Ding’s team worked on their project.D. Why many students don’t follow school rules.16. According to the passage, what did Ding’s team do to help other students know more about the non-teaching staff on their campusa. They made posters.b. They shot videos.c. They made a series of stickers.d. They held a basketball match.A. abcB. abdC. acdD. bcd17. What can we learn from the passageA. High school students care more about the non-teaching staff.B. Students treat non-teaching staff the same as teaching staff.C. Better communication can help students value the non-teaching staff.D. Young people love to make stickers of the people around them. （ C ）If you are studying at a university in the US, there is no need to decide your major in the first year, but it’s a good idea to spend time early on working out what subjects you are interested in.To do this, you can take some tests such as the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator Test (MBTI职业性格测试) and the Enneagram Personality Test (九型人格测试).18._____ They can help you work out what subjects you’re interested in and tell you what jobs may suit you best.Further, you should choose a major you are passionate(热情的) about and interested in. 19._____Your passion and interests are important, and they will bring you pleasure and happiness.

Dweck has found that it is your mindset that plays an important role in deciding achievement and success. So, what exactly is a mindset A mindset is a set of beliefs that shape how you make sense of the world and yourself. It influences how you think, feel, and behave in any given situation.According to Dweck, there are two basic mindsets: fixed and growth. If you have a fixed mindset, you believe your abilities are fixed and therefore can’t be changed. You may also believe that your talent and intelligence（智商）alone leads to success. And effort is not required. If you have a growth mindset, you believe that your talents and abilities can be developed over time through effort and determination（决心）. People with this mindset don’t necessarily believe that everyone can become Einstein or Mozart just because they try. They do, however, believe that everyone can get smarter or more talented if they work at it.Your mindset plays an important role in how you deal with life’s challenges. When children have a growth mindset, they hunger for learning and have a desire to work hard and discover new things. This often translates into achievement in education. As adults, these same people are more likely to keep going in the face ofdifficulties. Instead of giving up, adults with a growth mindset view it as an opportunity to learn and grow. On the other hand, those with fixed mindsets are more likely to give up in the face of challenging situations. Dweck suggests that people should get rid of their fixed mindset. Here’s how:● Focus on the journey. When building a growth mindset, it is important to see the value in your journey. When you’re fixated on the end result, you miss out on all the things you could be learning along the way.● Add “yet” to your life. If you’re having trouble with a task, remind yourself that you just haven’t mastered it “yet”. Adding this word into your vocabulary shows that in the face of troubles, you can overcome （克服）anything.● Pay attention to your words and thoughts. Replace negative thoughts with more positive ones to build a growth mindset.● Take on challenges. Making mistakes is one of the best ways to learn. So, instead of shying away from challenges, welcome them. 47．What is a mindset______________________________________________48．Which mindset makes you believe your abilities can’t be changed______________________________________________49．What do adults with a growth mindset think of difficulties______________________________________________50．What are Dweck’s suggestions about developing a growth mindset______________________________________________51．Someone says, “I’m not good at E nglish, and I can do nothing about it.”Is this an example of a growth mindset or a fixed mindset Why______________________________________________六、书面表达（18分）我们在变化中成长，成长让我们的人生充满意义。

She will lend the books to children who give her plastic cups, bags and other waste. She told Reuters that she is helping the kids learn the value of reading as well as making them protect the environment. As soon as she shows up, little children surround (围绕) her “Trash Library”.All of the children are all carrying rubbish bags and Raden’s three-wheeler quickly fills up with them as the books fly out. She’s happy that the kids are going to spend less time on online games as a result.“Let us build a culture of literacy (素养) from young age to mitigate the harm of the online world,” Raden said. “We should also take care of our waste in order to fight climate (气候) change and it is our responsibility to save the earth from trash,” Raden said.She collects about 100 kg of waste each week, which is then sorted out (挑选) and sent for recycling or sold. She has 6,000 books to lend and wants to take the mobile service to neighbouring areas as well.Kevin Alamsyah, an avid 11-year-old reader, searches for waste lying in the village. “When there is too much trash, our environment will become dirty and it’s not healthy. That’s why I look for rubbish to borrow a book,” he says.11．What’s the purpose of Raden’s mobile service?A．To get kids in the village to read more.B．To make villagers collect the waste.C．To encourage children to buy the books.D．To ask the villagers to give her books.12．What does the underlined word “mitigate” in paragraph 4 probably mean?A．add B．brighten C．increase D．reduce 13．Which words can best describe the librarian?A．Humorous and caring.B．Responsible and creative. C．Talented and hardworking.D．Outgoing and brave.Big snowstorms and cold air swept across northern in the first week of November. At the same time, a global (全球的) meeting on climate (气候) change was held in Glasgow, Scotland. There, leaders from around the world tried to deal with global warming.Why are we experiencing such a cold winter on a warming planet? The cold winter and global warming, two seemingly opposite facts, are not contradictory. Global warming does not happen evenly (均衡地) on Earth, and it causes more extreme (极端的) heat and cold, Zhou said.Because of the warming climate, China has seen a growing temperature in winter. It has increased by 0.41 ℃ every 10 years since 1961. But in some cases, the country has also seen extreme cold—for example, the icy weather in early 2008.Global warming has affected the local weather through sea-air or land-air interaction (相互作用). For example, in October, La Nina affected China. It is caused by strong winds above the Pacific Ocean. It brought more cold air to China. Another reason for the cold weather is the warming Arctic, according to BBC．It is warming almost three times as fast as any other place on Earth.Will this winter be much colder? The official forecast (预报) said a cold winter is likely. Northern China will probably see more snow than average, and Southern China less rainfall than average.14．What does the underlined word “contradictory” mean in Chinese?A．opposite B．common C．similar D．false 15．When La Nina happened, China ________.A．had an increase in temperature B．suffered from extreme drought C．was much colder than usual D．had a hotter summer than usual 16．The recent cold weather in China was influenced by cold air from ________.A．ab B．ac C．bc D．bd 17．According to the official forecast, ________.A．there will be lots of snow in southern China this winterB．this winter will not be as cold as usualC．Southern China will be warmer and wetter this winterD．Northern China will probably see a cold winterWe all know there is a problem with plastic pollution. Five trillion (万亿) plastic bags are used every year. One million plastic drinking bottles are bought every minute.What if we could use plastic waste to build roads? This is exactly what Toby McCartney has done.In 2019, McCartney’s UK-based company, MacRebur, built the world’s first plastic road in Elgin town, Scotland. The plastic waste was made into grains (颗粒) and then mixed with bitumen (沥青). The road looks just like any other road. But it is more stretchy (有弹性的) thanks to the plastic.“Our technology can help solve the problem of plastic waste. It can also produce roads that deal better with changes in the weather, reducing potholes (坑洼),” McCartney told the BBC．McCartney’s idea came from a trip to India. “I saw people in India would put plastic waste into potholes and burn it. The plastic would melt down (熔化) in the hole,” said McCartney.“I know there must be some similarities between the plastic and bitumen, which both come from oil. That’s how I started to think about mixing them,” he said.After lots of testing, McCartney found the perfect idea. And now his company has built many plastic roads around the world, from Australia to Europe. A one-kilometer stretch of road uses about 684, 000 plastic bottles or 1.8 million plastic bags. The road itself can be recycled at the end of its lifespan (寿命). The materials can be reused to build new roads.“We are just a small part of ending the plastic problems, but it is nice to be part of it,” McCartney said. “I just don’t want my daughters to live in a world where there are more plastics in our oceans than fish.”18．Paragraph 1 is written to show that plastic pollution is _____.A．faster than imagined B．better than other pollutionC．mostly unknown D．a serious problem19．Compared with common roads, the plastic road _________.A．is easy to break B．is afraid of hot weatherC．is more stretchy D．costs more money20．What inspired McCartney to build the plastic road?A．Indian people’s way of repairing roads.B．Seeing cracks and potholes on roads one day.C．His wish of reducing plastic pollution.D．His knowledge of plastic and bitumen.21．_________ plastic bottles are needed to build a 10-kilometer stretch of plastic road. A．684, 000B．6.84 million C．1.8 million D．18 million22．What does McCartney mean in the last paragraph?A．Children should also join to reduce plastic pollution.B．Plastic pollution will soon be solved with his help.C．Plastic pollution will become more and more serious.D．He is willing to offer help in reducing plastic pollution.三、阅读还原5选4阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后面的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。

I was walking to visit my dad. His house was only a short walk from mine, but I was already wet because of the rain. I knocked on his door and stepped into his house. Warm steam（蒸汽）came from the kitchen. It touched my nose and suddenly I felt like I was 8 years old again. Dad was making Nana’s special sauce.Growing up, Nana would make us an Italian feast every Sunday after church. She would slowly cook her spaghetti sauce for hours. When it was ready, we would mix it in the spaghetti and sprinkle （撒上）cheese on top. It always left our bellies full, our hearts happy and our house smelling yummy.I sat down when Dad made me a plate. I felt like a boy again. We talked about those old times and laughed over the memories, both good and bad. And I noticed something, too. I didn’t feel cold anymore. My heart was warm, my spirit was light, and both my face and stomach were smiling.Dad and Nana have been gone for years now. I still miss them both every single day. Although my daughter and I both know how to make Nana’s special sauce, we don’t cook it as often as we should. No matter how hard I try, I can never get it quite right. Maybe it was just the love with which they cooked it that made it so delicious. Either way, this winter, I am going to make it again. I need its warmth. I need its goodness. And when I cook it with love, I know that Nana and Dad will be smiling down on me from Heaven.11．What brought the author back to his childhood? ______A．A cold, gray winter day.B．His wet clothes and chilled bones.C．The warm smell of the spaghetti sauce.D．A heart-to-heart talk with his dad.12．How did the author feel after having his dad’s meal? ______A．Fun and moved.B．Surprised and happy.C．Sad and disappointed.D．Warm and relaxed.13．According to the author, what made the sauce taste better? ______A．The love put into it.B．The person he cooked it with.C．The kitchen.D．The time of year.Kinoshita of Japan is 81 years old, but his age doesn’t stop him from learning new tricks (技巧)on a skateboard. Almost every morning, Kinoshita rides at his local skate park. He gets helpful information on how to improve from some young skateboarders. “They are all my teachers,” said Kinoshita. “At first I was holding on to the railing ” he said. But he soon learned to make a 180-degree turn and other tricks.Before he retired, Kinoshita worked in the building industry. He still works part-time as a waiter in a bicycle parking area. Kinoshita began skateboarding only 2 years ago. The decision to buy a skateboard changed Kinoshita’s life.Kinoshita thinks skateboarding can help prevent mental decline (智力衰退). He said, “For old people like me who try to learn new things, if we don’t practice it little by little every day, we will forget how to do it immediately. That’s why I think I have to come here and practice every day.”He said he watched in wonder at the skateboarders who competed in the Tokyo Olympics. All three medalists in the women’s street skateboarding competition were between the ages of 13 and 19. “They are really incredible.” He added, “To be honest, I can’t beat those 5-year-old, 4-year-old or 3-year-old kids. ”14．What do we know about Kinoshita? ______A．He is an 80-year-old Japanese skateboarder.B．He gets help from some young skateboarders.C．He works in the building industry now.D．He has practiced skateboarding for 3 years.15．Why does Kinoshita practice skateboarding every day? ______A．Because he wants to improve his health.B．Because he wants to compete in Tokyo Olympics.C．Because he wants to become a professional skateboarder.D．Because he will have a match with other skateboarders .16．What does the underlined word “incredible” in the last paragraph mean? ______ A．valuable B．honest C．excellent D．hard-working 17．What can we learn from the passage? ______A．Every coin has two sides.B．It is never too late to learn.C．Think much and speak little.D．All roads lead to Rome.On November 16, seven astronauts on the International Space Station ISS woke up to an alarm. A Russian missile (导弹) test had just exploded (爆炸) a satellite into more than 1,500 pieces. Some of them got very close to the ISS.NASA says these small pieces can travel at more than 28,000 km/h. That is much faster than a bullet (子弹) about 3,500 km/h.. Even a small piece could destroy a space station or kill an astronaut if he or she is doing a spacewalk, says Live Science.Since the 1950s, humans have sent thousands of rockets and satellites into space. Many are still there, and we now face an ever-increasing risk of space junk. In 2006, for example, National Geographic reported that a tiny piece of space junk hit the ISS, taking a chip (一小块) out of a window. In June of this year, a piece of debris (残骸) ran into one of the station’s robotic arms and left a hole.Scientists are trying different ways to deal with the problem. One way is to use a huge net. In 2018, the UK’s Surrey Space Center caught some space junk with a net in an experiment. It first found the debris, and then collected it with a net and a harpoon (鱼叉).Another solution is to use robotic arms. ClearSpace 1, the European Space Agency’s task to clean space junk, is going to be sent into space in 2025. It will use robotic arms to catch debris. The task plans to throw the debris into Earth’s atmosphere (大气层), where it will burn up.18．From the passage,we can know that space debris can come from ______.

I had the meanest mother in the whole world. While other kids ate candy for breakfast, I had to have cereal, eggs or toast. While others had Cokes and candy for lunch, I had to eat a sandwich. 1 you can guess, my supper was different from the other kids’too. But at 2 , I wasn’t alone since my sister and two brothers had the same mean(刻薄的) mother as I did.My mother knew where we were at all times. She had to know who our friends were and 3 we were doing. And she always insisted upon us telling the truth. Now you can see how mean she was. The worst is yet to come. We had to be in 4 by nine each night and up at eight the next morning. We couldn’t sleep 5 noon like our friends. So while they slept, she made us work. We had to wash dishes, make beds, and learn to cook. We had to wear clean clothes and take a bath every day. I believe she lay 6 at night thinking of mean things to do to us. Through the years, things didn’t improve a bit. When we didn’t want to attend school, we could not lie in bed “sick”like our friends did. My mother, being as different as she was, would care only about our marks. Out of four children, a couple of us received higher 7 . My two brothers devoted themselves to the country. None of us have ever done 8 things. She forced us to grow up into educated and honest adults.I am now trying to raise my three children 9 my mother. I will feel proud when my children call me mean. Mother’s love to children can be rather deep, yet this very love must help children grow away from the mother, and to become 10 independent(独立的). Now I thank God every day for giving me the meanest mother in the whole world. I’m proud of my mother!1. A. While B. As C. If D. Though2. A. last B. first C. most D. least3.

"They come to big cities to follow their dreams，realize their goals，and improve their family situations.They are just like Mulan."The idea of reinterpreting（重新诠释） traditional culture came to Ye in her exchange study at Oslo National Academy of the Arts in 2016 .She often missed home and shared Chinese history and culture with foreign friends."There are many wonderful stories in Chinese culture，so I thought maybe I could do something，like drawing a picture book，"Ye said. "In my eyes，the most important thing is not that Mulan is brave enough to go to the battlefield（战场），but that after so many experiences，she still chooses to return to her hometown.The most important thing for her is her family.That touches me deeply."11.

What do we know about Mulan in Ye Luying's book？A. She is similar to Mulan in the traditional story.B. She is a common girl following her dream.C. She teaches illustration in an art school.D. She lives a hard life in modern society.13. What can we infer from the passage？A. Mulan first appeared in a storybook.B. Ye is touched by Mulan's love for her family.C. Ye spends much time talking with foreign friends.D. The book Mulan is popular both at home and abroad.CThere are people living in almost every corner of our crowded planet.From the tops of mountains to deep underground，we've always been able to find places to make a home.But with less space available（有用的），people have started to look even deeper for somewhere to live.Throughout history，people have been excited by the idea of living underwater.More recently，the influence of human activities on the land has led people to look to the ocean for natural resource s（资源）.Some have been creating large ships，laboratories and underwater home grounds to enable people to live and work under the sea.While dr eams of an underwater city have remained a fantasy（幻想），how close are we to making our home on the seabed a realityThe pioneer of underwater living was Ian Koblick.He said that technology was already able to cr eate underwater home grounds supporting up to a hundred people.He even opened La Chalupa，once the largest and most developed underwater habitat in the world.A more recent plan for an underwater city is Ocean Spiral.Designed by a Japanese company，it's a huge transparent globe（透明球体） on the seabed.There is a tower running through it to the surface，providing space for homes，offices and even an amusement park for five thousand people.Of course，there're engineering challenges in building an underwater city.And living underwater would have a great influence on the human body，especially as there is an increase in atmospheric（大气层的） pressure which could lead to the bends（弯曲）.So，maybe it's too soon to consider packing our bags and setting up a new life three thousand meters un der the sea!14. Why do people begin to consider living underwater？A. Life on the planet is too boring.B. There's less space left on the land.C. It's safer for people to live underwater.D. There is too much traffic on the planet.15. What can we learn from Paragraph 2？A. Living under the sea costs much money.B. People show interest in underwater living.C. There won't be any laboratories under the sea.D. It's hard to find natural resources in the ocean.16. How many people could live in Ocean Spiral？A. A hundred people.B. A thousand people.C. Five hundred people.D. Five thousand people.17. What does the writer think of living under the sea？A. It still has a long way to go.B. It is good for people's health.C. It will make people's life colorful.D. It will come true in the near future.18. Not all self-disciplined（自律的） people are excellent，but nearly all excellent people are self-disciplined ones. （1） Some of them never get late.T he real difference between an excellent person and a common person is that an excellent person can manage his time well.And that's where his success comes from.What people call self-discipline is in fact self-management.One example is staying fit.Never und erestimate（低估） someone who is in good shape.Anyone who has ever tried to lose weight knows that it isn't ea sy at all.（2） If someone is in good shape，it shows that he knows the ways of staying fit and he's able to stick to a plan that uses those ways.If someone is in good shape，it means that this person is good at managing himself and his time.Whether it's natural or learned，it's really a great skill.It also shows that this person is able to persevere（坚持）. （3）But how do you learn self-management？First of all，set a goal and write down your reasons for wanting to achieve it.Then list all the things you need to do to achieve this goal. （4）With self-discipline，small things in life will no longer trouble you.Only through self-discipline can you truly own your b right future.A.Some of them keep reading every day.B.And start to work on them，one at a time.C.Someone wants to lose weight by eating less.D.It's even harder to avoid putting weight back on.E.So if someone is in good shape，he's more than just healthy.(1)(2)(3)(4)19.（1） Things don't always work out as planned.Even if you work especially hard on something，it's important to accept that it doesn't work sometimes.Face the failure，and try your best to improve next time.（2） If you're burned out or need some time to clear your head，take some time off.For some people，this may mean closing a project for some time.For others it may mean taking a vacation or road trip. Remember that leaving it for a while is not the same thing as giving up.（3） You might feel pain at first，but spend some time thinking why you failed.For example，if you failed a test，think about how you studied for it.When did you start studying and how long did you study？Did you truly learn and memorize the information？Do you need to study or learn in a different wayAnswering these questions can help you learn from the experience and do better in your next exam.（4） Don't analyze（分析） every little problem that went wrong or everything you "should" have done in the past.Instead，pay attention to what you've learned from these mistakes.With each mistake you make，ask yourself， "What can I learn from this？"（5） Failure doesn't have to be the end.Think of it as the start or middle of a process.See f ailure as a stepping stone on the way.Most successful people have had failures，but they picked up and moved forward.A.Take a break.B.Lear your lessons.C.Accept your failure.D.Find out what went wrong.E.View failure as part of a process.(1)(2)(3)(4)(5)20.of course.Then you may give it to someone else.That's called re-gifting.Some people say re-gifting makes good use of an unwanted gift（2） others worry that re-gifting might hurt the original （最初的） gift giver's feelings.In my opinion，re-gifting has many（3） .It's a fantastic way to deal with things you don't need.It's also a simple form of recyclin g.It gives a（4） life to unwanted gifts and stops them from being left in rubbish bins.It's also good for t he（5） .If you are thinking about re-gifting，you must follow some rules in order to be a（n）（6） re-gifter and avoid making some mistakes.Firstly，don't re-gift anything within the same circle of friends or family.If the original gift giver finds out y ou have re-gifted his or her gift，he or she will certainly get （7） .Secondly，keep in mind that the gift isn't（8） another man's "treasure".If you are re-gifting something，make sure your receiver will really like the gift.If the gift is something that you are sure nobody wil l like，you can（9） giving it away to a charity（慈善机构）.Lastly，check that there aren't any notes or cards（10） the original gift giver inside.(1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)21. Did you once forget where your socks were when you woke up in the morning？Can you remember what you （1）（eat） for lunch a week ago？You may think that being forgetful is not a good thing.But now you should be （2）（thank）.Scientists from University of Toronto have found that forgetting is （3） important part oflearning.Getting rid of（除去） unnecessary information can help our brains work better.What kind of information is unnecess ary？Scientists say that，generally，this may have something to do （4） the environment you live in.In an environment that is al ways changing，our brains may require us to remember less.For example，a supermarket cashier（收银员） meets many people every day and will （5）（probable） only remember them for a s hort time.But a designer who often meets his or her customers will remember much （6）（l ong）."That is because our brains keep making new neurons（神经细胞），" said Paul Frankland，a professor at University of Toronto.According to （7）（he），there is a special area in our brain called the hippocampus（海马体）.It helps us learn and remember （8）（thing）.When new neurons fit in the hippocampus，they renew our old memories.This could explain （9） you forget so much information about the time when you were very young.However，forgetting is not always good.When you don't have enough sleep，you may have difficulty （10）（remember） new information.Sleeping helps the brain store and keep new information，Matthew Walker from the university told the Huffington Post.(1)(2)(3)(4)(5)(6)(7)(8)(9)(10)22. Ryrkaypiy，a village with about 700 people，is located in the northeast of Russia.Standing on the coast of the Arctic Ocean，it has to brave both the Arctic's cold weather and wild animals like polar bears.Most of the area's po lar bears live a few miles away from Ryrkaypiy.Only a few bears come near to the village now and then.But last winter，over 50 polar bears went to Ryrkaypiy in search of food.The villagers were told to stay indoors to avoid danger.Now polar bears come to the village more often and in larger numbers than ever.Although polar bears are born on land，they spend most of their life on the sea ice.The ice gives them a place where they can have a rest an d catch fish.But as the temperature rises because of global warming，the bears have started to find their home disappearing.Polar bears normally go onto dry land in summer，and return to the ice when the ocean freezes again in autumn.But over the past few years，the ocean has frozen later and later，and the ice area has become smaller and smaller.Unable to live on the ice，hungry polar bears have to look for food on land，including villages like Ryrkaypiy.In some countries，polar bears are considered as endangered animals.If the earth becomes so warm that there is no long er enough ice for the bears to live on，there will probably be no polar bears.Immediate action must be taken to protect both polar bears and humans.(1) Why did polar bears go to Ryrkaypiy last winter(2) What can polar bears do on the sea ice？(3) When do polar bears normally go onto dry land(4) What will probably happen to polar bears if there is not enough ice？(5) What's the passage mainly about？23. 生活中充满压力，学会减压无异于守护心灵。
