For me, Nancy, it means much more than not going to school. It is also a golden chance to spend time with my family because I have little time with them during the school year. Last summer vacation I travelled with my family to the Hawkesbury River in Western Sydney. It was one of the most unforgettable summer vacations in my life. Staying by the river helps us escape from the hot weather and noise of the city. Every day, my family and I got up early to go swimming in the cool water. In the morning, we all took part in a big game. We enjoyed water-skiing, wakeboarding (尾波滑水) and other activities. These activities made our family feel closer. In the warm afternoon, we peacefully read books on hammocks hung among trees by the river. The days always ended with a campfire. We sat around the fire, talking and laughing. The river is a perfect place for people to forget about all the stresses (压力) of life and simply enjoy the moment. To me, it is the best place to spend time together with my family. I can’t help thinking about those days again and again although so many months has passed. 36. Nancy ________ before the summer vacation starts. A. is too busy to stay with her family B. has no chance to go back to Australia C. sees her parents very often D. is busy practising swimming 37. Hawkesbury is a river in the ________ of Sydney. A. east B. west C. north D. south 38. What does Nancy mainly want to tell us in Paragraph 3? A. How she enjoyed swimming. B. Where her family spent the vacation. C. What activities her family enjoyed. D. Why she enjoyed those activities. 39. Hammocks, the underlined word in Paragraph 4, may be something like ________. A. roads B. houses C. libraries D. beds 40.

In the morning, we all took part in a big game. We enjoyed water-skiing, wakeboarding (尾波滑水) and other activities. These activities made our family feel closer.”可知，第三段Nancy主要想告诉我们她的家人喜欢什么活动。故选C。 【39题详解】 词句猜测题。根据文中“hung among trees by the river.”可猜测出，“hammocks”应是悬挂在河边树上的吊床，故“hammocks”可能是像床一样的东西。故选D。 【40题详解】 推理判断题。根据文中“I can’t help thinking about those days again and again although so many months has passed.”可推理出，Nancy很怀念跟家人一起度过的暑假时光。故选B。 C Do you know why you get angry so easily, but your friend smiles all the time? It’s because you have different personalities. Then what is personality? It’s about how people think, behave (举止) and react (反应) to everything around them. So what makes people think and behave in certain ways? Part of the reason is that people are born like this. A baby gets its genes and blood type (血型) when it is still inside its mother. These may help decide what the baby will be like. But one’s personality doesn’t stop here. Family life, school learning and life experiences can also make you the person you are. But this doesn’t mean you can’t change your personality. You can always try to make yourself better. Don’t get too worried if you don’t have a good personality. Just face it. This is a good way to start making changes. For example, if you don’t know how to make friends, find out why. Is it because you’re too shy? If so, tell yourself to smile at people. Start talking to people kindly. But don’t give yourself a hard time about it all. After all, it’s not easy to change lifelong habits in one night. Just keep trying. One day you can see that you can be a new you! 41. Personality is about the following except (除了) ________. A. how people think B. what people look like C. how people behave D. how people react to something 42. The underlined word “it” refers to ________.

From the last paragraph, we can learn that ________. A. it’s hard for a shy person to make friends B. there is no way to change lifelong habits C. people can change themselves by keeping trying D. shy people can change themselves in a short time 45. Which can be the best title for the passage? A. Facts About Personality B. Be a New You C. Personality Decides Life D. Change Your Personality 【答案】41. B 42. A 43. D 44. C 45. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了什么是性格，性格是怎么形成的以及如何改变自己的性格，成为更好的自己。 【41题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Then what is personality? It’s about how people think, behave and react to everything around them”可知，性格与人们的思考、行为、反应有关，不包括外貌。故选B。 【42题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“A baby gets its genes and blood type (血型) when it is still inside its mother.”可知，此处“it”指代的是“婴儿”，故选A。 【43题详解】 细节理解题。根据“ A baby gets its genes and blood type when it is still inside its mother”及“Family life, school learning and life experiences can also make you the person you are”可知，决定性格的因素包括血型、基因、家庭生活、学校学习和生活经历，故选D。 【44题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Just keep trying. One day you can see that you can be a new you”可知，通过不断努力，一个人可以改变自己，故选C。 【45题详解】 最佳标题题。通读全文，从最后一段“Just keep trying, one day you can see that you can be a new you!”来看，本文主要介绍了什么是性格，性格是怎么形成的以及如何改变自己的性格，成为更好的自己。最适合的标题是“Be a New You”。故选B。 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题 共30分） Ⅳ. 选词填空（共5小题，每小题1分，共5分） 仔细阅读下面五个句子，然后下面方框中所给的单词或短语填空，使每个句子在结构、句意和逻辑上正确。（提示：选项中有两个是多余的） felt like / swung/ cared about / excitement / touches / enjoyable / interested 46.

Carry Newman Contact her Age: 34 Language: English I am an open-minded 34-year-old living in Scotland. I love to travel but haven’t been able to do much of that these last few years. I used the lockdown (封锁) to teach myself how to knit (编织) . It is now one of my favorite hobbies. I love spending time with friends, either over a good meal or along dog walk. I would love to have a snail (蜗牛) mail pen pal. I like pretty stationery (信纸), but the letter is always more important than the paper! Dean Gill Contact him Age: 26 Language: English I’m a shy person. Although I have been trying to escape (逃避) my little shell, I still love losing myself in other worlds, whether it’s a nice novel or a great movie. I also love to write and draw. I enjoy being around people with similar interests. I’m now looking for someone who truly enjoys writing and drawing. I prefer deep conversations. We can share our goals, dreams, thoughts and so on. Shirley Stacey Contact her Age: 15 Language: English Hi there! I am from Northern California in the U. S. I love hanging out with my family and listening to a large variety of music. I also love reading and often spend my free time trying to find new books to read. I am a bit shy with new friends, but I quickly open up once I have gotten to know them.

Shirley needs a pen pal younger than her B. people in the pictures all can speak English C. Carry would like to send e-mails to her pen pal D. Dean Gill wants a pen pal who likes writing and dancing B Without classes and exams, the summer vacation is an ideal time for Australian kids. For me, Nancy, it means much more than not going to school. It is also a golden chance to spend time with my family because I have little time with them during the school year. Last summer vacation I travelled with my family to the Hawkesbury River in Western Sydney. It was one of the most unforgettable summer vacations in my life. Staying by the river helps us escape from the hot weather and noise of the city. Every day, my family and I got up early to go swimming in the cool water. In the morning, we all took part in a big game. We enjoyed water-skiing, wakeboarding (尾波滑水) and other activities. These activities made our family feel closer. In the warm afternoon, we peacefully read books on hammocks hung among trees by the river. The days always ended with a campfire. We sat around the fire, talking and laughing. The river is a perfect place for people to forget about all the stresses (压力) of life and simply enjoy the moment. To me, it is the best place to spend time together with my family. I can’t help thinking about those days again and again although so many months has passed. 36. Nancy ________ before the summer vacation starts. A. is too busy to stay with her family B. has no chance to go back to Australia C. sees her parents very often D. is busy practising swimming 37. Hawkesbury is a river in the ________ of Sydney. A. east B. west C. north D. south 38. What does Nancy mainly want to tell us in Paragraph 3? A. How she enjoyed swimming. B. Where her family spent the vacation. C. What activities her family enjoyed. D. Why she enjoyed those activities. 39. Hammocks, the underlined word in Paragraph 4, may be something like ________. A. roads B. houses C. libraries D. beds 40. We can infer (推断) from the passage that Nancy ________. A. is still a young student who often spends time at home B misses the summer time with her family C. will go to the river with her parents this summer D. won’t stay in Australia any longer C Do you know why you get angry so easily, but your friend smiles all the time? It’s because you have different personalities. Then what is personality? It’s about how people think, behave (举止) and react (反应) to everything around them. So what makes people think and behave in certain ways? Part of the reason is that people are born like this. A baby gets its genes and blood type (血型) when it is still inside its mother. These may help decide what the baby will be like. But one’s personality doesn’t stop here. Family life, school learning and life experiences can also make you the person you are. But this doesn’t mean you can’t change your personality. You can always try to make yourself better. Don’t get too worried if you don’t have a good personality. Just face it. This is a good way to start making changes. For example, if you don’t know how to make friends, find out why. Is it because you’re too shy? If so, tell yourself to smile at people. Start talking to people kindly. But don’t give yourself a hard time about it all. After all, it’s not easy to change lifelong habits in one night. Just keep trying. One day you can see that you can be a new you! 41. Personality is about the following except (除了) ________. A. how people think B. what people look like C. how people behave D. how people react to something 42. The underlined word “it” refers to ________. A. the baby B. the blood type C. the gene D. the personality 43. What can help decide a person’s personality? ①blood type ②genes ③family life ④height ⑤school learning ⑥life experiences A. ①②③④⑤ B. ①②③④⑥ C. ①②④⑤⑥ D. ①②③⑤⑥ 44. From the last paragraph, we can learn that ________. A. it’s hard for a shy person to make friends B. there is no way to change lifelong habits C. people can change themselves by keeping trying D. shy people can change themselves in a short time 45. Which can be the best title for the passage? A. Facts About Personality B. Be a New You C. Personality Decides Life D. Change Your Personality 第Ⅱ卷（非选择题 共30分） Ⅳ. 选词填空（共5小题，每小题1分，共5分） 仔细阅读下面五个句子，然后下面方框中所给的单词或短语填空，使每个句子在结构、句意和逻辑上正确。（提示：选项中有两个是多余的） felt like / swung/ cared about / excitement / touches / enjoyable / interested 46.
