I’ll always remember the first time I tried ballet. My mother was a dancer and I wanted nothing more than to be like her, but after making mistakes during my first class, I felt like I wanted to quit right away. However, I told my mom I couldn’t wait to dance again because it was only my first day.
Weeks passed and my dancing didn’t get any better. Then my dance teacher announced that we were going to perform in a show. I was scared of falling on my face in front of hundreds of people and disappointing my mom.
Even though I practiced hard for the show, I never quite got the hang of it. Finally, I went to my mom to tell her how I felt. She simply laughed and told me she would teach me all she knew about ballet.
My mom quickly discovered how bad at ballet I was, but she still taught me with the greatest patience, love and understanding. When I jumped and fell, she was there to catch me. When I lost my balance, she held me up. By the time the show arrived, I was as prepared as I could be.
The music began and my heart started to race. Breathing calmly, I began moving to the music without missing a step. When the music stopped, I ran off the stage and laughed in excitement.
My mom found me and gave me a huge hug, telling me how proud she was. I looked my mom in the eye and told her that there was no way this could have happened without her. Through this, I realized one important fact: My mom will always be there to catch me if I fall.

Many people love gum(口香糖). Delicious as it is, the dirty waste can be a problem for humans. The main material for gum cannot break down naturally. Lots of gum waste ends up being thrown away into the rivers and grounds each year.
Now thanks to the company, Gumdrop Ltd., there may be a way to deal with this problem. The UK-based company has come up with a clever idea that enables easy disposal of gum waste using pink boxes they’ve produced. Passers-by can simply throw any unwanted gum into the pink boxes set up across London. Once full, they are mailed to the factory where the gum is used to create more pink boxes. The company said that gum waste could be changed into other useful things like shoes as well.
Bullus, who founded the company, said she decided to create the clever boxes after observing the mess caused by gum waste on the streets of London. She had spent many months studying how to use gum waste as a material for the clever boxes. After hundreds of failures, she finally succeeded.
To know whether people would like to throw gum waste into the pink boxes, she did two tests. She set up two boxes inside a men’s restroom at Southampton Airport. Bullus said they had to pick up the full boxes just 5 times a year, an effort that cost the company $300. But airport officials would have spent $4,600 over the same period cleaning up the mess left behind by carelessly thrown gum waste. A similar test at London’s famous Villiers Street resulted in a 40% decrease(减少)in gum waste.
Their success has led to the rapid setting-up of the pink boxes across London. Bullus now hopes the pink boxes can help not only London, but also many other places. There are many countries and cities where gum is a problem. The company has also introduced the pink boxes that can be easily carried by people.
46.The introduction to gum in the first paragraph is mainly to show ______.
A.it’s a kind of unhealthy food
B.it’s environmentally unfriendly
C.it needs improvement in quality
D.it becomes popular all over the world
47.What do we know about the pink boxes made by Gumdrop Ltd.?
A.They can break down gum waste
B.They can change people’s views on gum
C.They are used for recycling gum waste.
D.They are made from the same materials as shoes
48.What may best describe Bullus according to Paragraph 3?
A.Creative and hardworking. B.Funny and smart
C.Kind and courageous. D.Careful and trustful
49.We can learn from the two tests that the pink boxes ______.
A.lead to a decrease in gum sales
B.can be too costly for some airports
C.are less helpful in busy places
D.reduce the pressure to deal with gum waste
50.What’s probably Bullus’s future plan?
A.Applying the pink boxes in more places.
B.Encouraging people to avoid buying gum.
C.Making it more convenient to carry the pink boxes.
D.Improving London’s relationship with other cities.
D
Many of us mistakenly believe that it's wrong to think we have any good qualities. We may spend a lot of time blaming ourselves for our negative qualities, thinking that self criticism is the key to improving our performance. However, a constant focus on our supposed shortcomings can stop our efforts to make friends with other people. How can we believe that others could like us if we believe our inner being is flawed(有缺陷)?
If someone seems to dislike you, the reason for that dislike might have little or nothing to do with you. The person who doesn't like you might be fearful, or shallow, or busy or shy. Perhaps you and that person are simply a mismatch for each other at this particular time.
Don't take yourself out of the game by deciding that your flaws are bigger than your good qualities. In fact, some of the very qualities you consider to be flaws may be irresistible to someone else. For all the factors that might cause one person to reject you, there are at least as many factors that will work in your favor with someone else.
You might be thirty pounds over your ideal weight, but you may have a wonderful laugh and a real enthusiasm for life. There are many people who don’t mind your extra pounds. You may drive a shabby car, but you might be a great dancer and a loyal friend. There are people out there looking for loyalty, or fun, or sweetness, or wisdom, and the package it comes in is not important. If you are worried that you are not beautiful enough to attract friends, keep in mind that not everyone is looking for physical beauty in their friends. You can decide to feel inferior(自卑) because you don't have much money and you don't drive a nice car. You can believe that this is the reason that you don't have many friends in your life. On the other hand, if you are very wealthy you may be suspicious that everyone is after your money and that nobody really likes you as a person.
The point is that you can focus on just about anything and believe it's the reason you do not have friends and cannot make any.
51.According to the author ________plays an important role in making friends.
A.modesty B.confidence
C.admitting your shortcomings D.self criticism
52.If you are not liked by a person, _________ .
A.you may not be the one to be blamed
B.you and that person misunderstand each other
C.you should find the reason in yourself
D.you’d better talk with the person face to face
53.We can learn from the third paragraph that ________ .
A.you’ll have few friends if your flaws a re bigger than your good qualities
B.your negative qualities cause a person to reject you
C.your weakness may also be your strengths in some way
D.your good qualities may turn out to be your flaws
54.Which of the following is true according to the author?
A.Inner qualities are more important than physical appearance.
B.It is easier for a wealthy person to make friends.
C.It is important to lose weight.
D.If you are not beautiful enough, try to improve your physical beauty.
55.What do you think the author is most likely to suggest if he continues to write?
A.How to lose weight.
B.How to make friends.
C.How to make self criticism.
D.How to find your good qualities.

阅读下面短文,并根据短文内容完成下列各题。
Months earlier, my wife Lisa had woken up at 4: 45 am, preparing to do exercise. She heard voices coming from the upstairs game room and decided to investigate. She discovered that our older son, Hunter. had been playing the video game Fortnite since he got home from school the previous day. What she found angered both of us.
We were sick and tired of the amount of time Hunter spent playing video games. He was so addicted to video games. Back in the 1980s, instead of playing video games, we kids were crazy about playing baseball and street football, driving hoops (大环圈) outside the house, etc. But times are different now. It becomes apparent that kids of the new generation are entirely different from kids of my generation. My kid and his peers (同龄人) are crazy about electronic products. I work in a summer camp and am responsible for the field sports programme. I often notice many of the campers playing video games on little portable (便携式的) devices.
I began to refer to kids who spent more time playing video games than playing sports as the Nintendo Generation. In an attempt to ensure that our kid did not become a member of the Nintendo Generation, I came up with a programme to help Hunter deal with his bad habit. It was that video-game time in our house would have to be earned, just like money. I set the exchange rate: Each mile run equals 30 minutes of video-game play.
The first couple of days didn’t go well. Instead of choosing to run to win the time of playing games, he decided to boycott my programme and spend time sleeping. But eventually. Hunter came around, and decided he would give running a shot. Now, Hunter is in good health and can run 18 miles. But nine months earlier, he was not in any condition to run five miles.
I hope that running teaches my son to invest his time in worthwhile efforts, to do something hard, but quite meaningful and beneficial and then to enjoy a reward. I never want him to stop challenging himself.
56.What made the author and his wife Lisa angry? (no more than 10 words)
57.What did kids in the 1980s like doing according to the author? (no more than 5 words)
58.How did the author help Hunter deal with his bad habit? (no more than 12 words)
59.What does the underlined part in Paragraph 4 mean? (no more than 5 words)
60.How do you find Hunter’s change? What lesson can you learn from it? (no more than 20 words)

41.推理判断题。根据文章第一段“My mother was a dancer and I wanted nothing more than to be like her, but after making mistakes during my first class, I felt like I wanted to quit right away.

【导语】这是一篇说明文,本文主要介绍了Bullus为解决口香糖对环境的不利影响而研制出来的粉红盒子。
46.推理判断题。根据第一段“Many people love gum(口香糖). Delicious as it is, the dirty waste can be a problem for humans. The main material for gum cannot break down naturally. Lots of gum waste ends up being thrown away into the rivers and grounds each year.(许多人喜欢口香糖。虽然它很美味,但这脏的垃圾对人类来说可能是一个问题。口香糖的主要原料不能自然分解。每年都有大量的口香糖垃圾被丢弃到河里和地上。)”以及第二段第一句“Now thanks to the company, Gumdrop Ltd., there may be a way to deal with this problem. (现在多亏了Gumdrop有限公司,也许有办法解决这个问题。)”可知第一段介绍口香糖是为了说明口香糖所带来的问题,口香糖垃圾不能分解,会造成环境污染。故选B。
47.细节理解题。根据第二段最后两句“Once full, they are mailed to the factory where the gum is used to create more pink boxes. The company said that gum waste could be changed into other useful things like shoes as well.(一旦满了,它们就会被邮寄到工厂,在那里,口香糖被用来制造更多的粉色盒子。该公司表示,口香糖垃圾也可以变成其他有用的东西,比如鞋子。)”可知,粉红色盒子被用来回收利用口香糖垃圾,故选C。
48.推理判断题。根据第三段“Bullus, who founded the company, said she decided to create the clever boxes after observing the mess caused by gum waste on the streets of London.

49.细节理解题。根据第四段中“She set up two boxes inside a men’s restroom at Southampton Airport. Bullus said they had to pick up the full boxes just 5 times a year, an effort that cost the company $300. But airport officials would have spent $4,600 over the same period cleaning up the mess left behind by carelessly thrown gum waste. A similar test at London’s famous Villiers Street resulted in a 40% decrease(减少)in gum waste.(她在Southampton机场的一个男洗手间里放了两个箱子。Bullus说,他们一年只需要捡5次装满的盒子,这项工作花费了该公司300美元。但在同一时期,机场官员将花费4600美元清理不小心扔掉的口香糖垃圾留下的烂摊子。在伦敦著名的Villiers Street进行的一次类似测试使口香糖垃圾减少40%。)”可知这两次测试中粉红色的盒子存在可以减轻处理口香糖垃圾的压力,故选D。
50.推理判断题。根据最后一段第二句“Bullus now hopes the pink boxes can help not only London, but also many other places.(Bullus现在希望这些粉色盒子不仅能帮助伦敦,还能帮助许多其他地方。) ”可知Bullus未来计划是把粉红盒子应用到其他城市。故选A。

【分析】这是一篇议论文。作者认为我们不应该总是把焦点放在自己的缺点上,我们更多地应该关注自己的优点,内在的好品质远比外表重要的多。
51.细节理解题。根据第一段“However, a constant focus on our supposed shortcomings can stop our efforts to make friends with other people. How can we believe that others could like us if we believe our inner being is flawed(有缺陷)?(然而,一味地关注我们所谓的缺点会阻止我们交朋友。如果我们相信自己的内心是有缺陷的,我们怎么能相信别人会喜欢我们呢?)”可知,作者认为自信对我们交朋友有很重要的作用。故选B项。
52.细节理解题。根据第二段“If someone seems to dislike you, the reason for that dislike might have little or nothing to do with you.(如果某人看起来不喜欢你,那么这种不喜欢的原因可能和你没有什么关系。)”可知,如果你不被某人喜欢,这可能和你没有关系,所以你可能不应该是被责备的那一个。故选A项。
53.推理判断题。根据第三段“In fact, some of the very qualities you consider to be flaws may be irresistible to someone else. For all the factors that might cause one person to reject you, there are at least as many factors that will work in your favor with someone else.(事实上,一些你认为是缺点的特质,对其他人来说可能是充满诱惑的。在所有可能导致一个人拒绝你的因素中,至少有同样多的因素会对另一个人起作用。)”可知,一些你认为的缺点在某些人看来可能就是优点。故选C项。
54.细节理解题。根据最后一段“You might be thirty pounds over your ideal weight, but you may have a wonderful laugh and a real enthusiasm for life…If you are worried that you are not beautiful enough to attract friends, keep in mind that not everyone is looking for physical beauty in their friends.(你可能比理想体重多了30磅,但你可能拥有美妙的笑声和对生活的真正热情。……如果你担心自己不够漂亮,无法吸引朋友,请记住,并不是每个人都希望自己的朋友长得漂亮。)”可知,作者认为内在的品质比外表重要。故选A项。

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。主要讲述了作者通过制定运动计划帮助儿子摆脱电子游戏带来的负面影响。
56.考查细节理解。根据第一段中“She discovered that our older son, Hunter. had been playing the video game Fortnite since he got home from school the previous day. What she found angered both of us.”(她发现我们的大儿子,亨特。自从前一天从学校回到家,他就一直在玩电子游戏《堡垒之夜》。她的发现激怒了我们俩。)可知,亨特整晚都在玩电子游戏让作者和他的妻子丽莎感到很生气。故答案为That Hunter stayed up (spent) all night playing video games. / Hunter’s staying up (spending) all night playing video games. / Hunter’s too much gaming time.
57.考查细节理解。根据第二段中“Back in the 1980s, instead of playing video games, we kids were crazy about playing baseball and street football, driving hoops (大环圈) outside the house, etc.”(早在20世纪80年代,我们的孩子们不玩电子游戏,而是疯狂地打棒球、街头足球、在屋外开车打篮球等等。)可知,根据作者的说法,80年代的孩子喜欢去外面做运动。故答案为Going outside to do sports. / Playing sports games outside. / Playing outside the house. / Doing sports/ Playing outdoors.
58.考查细节理解。根据第三段中“In an attempt to ensure that our kid did not become a member of the Nintendo Generation, I came up with a programme to help Hunter deal with his bad habit.It was that video-game time in our house would have to be earned, just like money. l set the exchange rate: Each mile run equals 30 minutes of video-game play.”(为了确保我们的孩子不会成为“任天堂一代”的一员,我想出了一个计划来帮助亨特改掉他的坏习惯。那就是在我们家里玩电子游戏的时间必须要挣来,就像钱一样。我设定汇率:每跑一英里等于玩30分钟的电子游戏。)可知,作者想出了一个计划让亨特通过跑步来赢得打游戏的时间,从而帮助亨特改掉他的坏习惯的。故答案为By asking Hunter to earn video-game time by running. /They made a programme for Huntter to earn video-game time by running. / By making a program where Hunter had to earn video-game time through running.
59.考查词句猜测。根据第四段中“The first couple of days didn’t go well. Instead of choosing to run to win the time of playing games…”(最初的几天并不顺利。他没有选择跑步来赢得玩游戏的时间……)由此可知,此处为决定抵制我的计划,花时间睡觉。故可猜测划线部分“boycott my programme”为“抵制我的计划”的意思。故答案为Resist my programme. / Refuse to follow my programme/ Reject to participate in my program.
60.考查主观评价。根据第四段中“But eventually. Hunter came around, and decided he would give running a shot. Now, Hunter is in good health and can run 18 miles. But nine months earlier, he was not in any condition to run five miles.”(但最终。亨特回过神来,决定试一试跑步。现在,亨特身体很好,可以跑18英里。但9个月前,他的身体状况还不能跑5英里。)以及最后一段“I hope that running teaches my son to invest his time in worthwhile efforts, to do something hard, but quite meaningful and beneficial and then to enjoy a reward. I never want him to stop challenging himself.”(我希望跑步能教会我的儿子把时间投入到有价值的努力上,去做一些艰苦但很有意义和有益的事情,然后享受回报。我希望他永远不要停止挑战自己。)可知,亨特的变化是是非常积极的。我能从中学到:我们应该正确使用电子设备,通过花更多的时间在有意义的事情上来提高自己。故答案为It’s very positive / inspiring/ encouraging. We should make proper use of electronic devices and improve ourselves by spending more time on meaningful things.
61.Dear Chris,
I am sorry to hear about your communication problems with your parents, but I know how you feel since I’ve had similar problems before. Here are my suggestions and I hope things can get better soon.
First, let’s put ourselves in their shoes. Parents love us and often try to prevent us from making mistakes that seem obvious to them. Besides, when we share our problems with them, we often look for a listening ear and an open heart, not a solution. So, what you need to do is tell them about the difference and put trust in them.
I hope these suggestions will help. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Jin
