Before I tried the great escape, the door opened. “We’ve been waiting for you!” Mrs. Blackstone, my new fifth grade teacher, said loudly. With a smile my mom walked away and I was left taking center stage in front of a group of students. Over the next few days, Mrs. Blackstone made it her job to find me a new best friend. During history lessons, when I didn’t want to speak in front of the class, she’d not only call on me but have me stand up to address my classmates. One spring afternoon, Mrs. Blackstone asked me to stay after class. “I’d like to speak with you, Amanda.” My mind raced. Had I got a bad grade? Had I hurt anyone’s feelings? “Are you enjoying your new school?” She sat comfortably behind her desk. “I want to tell you something, between you and me, not to be shared with anyone else.” She continued, “I see something special in you. The way you communicate with others, and the kindness you show — I think you have great potential (潜力) to be something important.” I listened carefully to every word. “I have been a teacher for over twenty-five years; I can see it. But you must believe in yourself. That’s very important. Remember that and you’ll go far,” she said. Her voice was music to my ears that day. I walked out of her office, not staring at my shoes, but looking straight ahead with my head high. My teacher saw something special in me! Years later, her words still remain inside of me. 4.

When the author was asked to stay after class, she felt ______. A. annoyed B. nervous C. tired D. embarrassed 6. Why did Mrs. Blackstone have a talk with the author? A. To tell the author her potential. B. To help the author to realize her mistakes. C. To make the author feel cared and loved. D. To encourage the author to believe in herself. 7. What can we learn from the passage? A. The author came from a poor family. B. The teacher sang a song to the author. C. The author never forgets what the teacher said. D. The author no longer cared for anybody but herself. C As you grow rapidly through your teenage years, you will experience a lot of changes. The changes may seem difficult and they may seem to happen quickly. Don’t panic! You will deal successfully with them! You are a young adult now! With more responsibility, you will find more freedom to make your own choices. This is a time to be well informed about your choices so that you can make healthy balanced decisions that will help shape your future. You may already know your career path or you may have no idea at all what you want to do. Both situations are fine! Work hard and the right opportunity will present itself to you. Young adulthood means greater freedom and more choices. You will probably want to be independent. But try not to shut your family out of your life. You should learn to think of others even though you are old enough to look after yourself. Your family have been with you since you came into this world. It is also perfectly natural in this time for you to spend more time with your friends than your family. Choose your friends wisely. A true friend will stand by you no matter what happens. This period is part of the life cycle. There are some people who will be with you throughout life’s journey and there will be some people with whom you part and go separate ways. Leaving school can be hard. The reality is that you may not ever see all of your classmates again. You are a young adult. It is your life. No one can live it for you. The choices that you make from now on will be your choices. So making the right choices will be important to you. Life is for living. Enjoy your life wisely! 8. As far as the author is concerned, teenage years are _________. A. a period of complete freedom B. too hard for young people to get through C. an important time for the young to make the right choices D. a very important period for young students to leave their parents 9. The underlined words “some people” in paragraph 4 probably refer to “_________”. A. your parents. B. your classmates. C. your teachers D. your relatives. 10. The best title for this passage would be “_________”. A. The Choices in Life B. The Key to Success C. Say Goodbye to the Past D. Becoming a Young Adult 11. Who is the passage mainly intended for? A. Teenagers. B. Teachers. C. Young parents. D. Adults. D Loss of slow-wave sleep as you age may increase your risk of developing dementia (痴呆), according to a new study. “We found that aging was associated with a decline in the amount of the deepest stages of sleep, known as slow-wave sleep. We then found that people with greater declines in slow-wave sleep over time had a higher risk of getting dementia over the next 17 years of follow-up,” said Matthew Pase, senior author of the study. Slow-wave sleep is the third and fourth stages of sleep which is important for brain health. During this stage, the body removes unwanted or harmful materials from the brain. “For the brain, this deep sleep is thought to be the most restorative,” said Dr Richard Isaacson, who wasn’t involved in the study. The researchers wanted to know whether chronic (慢性的) reductions in slow-wave sleep over time are linked to dementia risk in humans and whether dementia-related processes in the brain may contribute to getting less of this type of sleep. They studied 346 people with an average age of 69 and completed two overnight sleep studies—one between 1995 and 1998 and the second between 1998 and 2001—during which their sleep was monitored. The researchers also investigated whether any change in the amount of slow-wave sleep that participants got was associated with developing dementia up to 17 years after they completed the sleep studies. By that time, 52 participants had been diagnosed with dementia. Each percentage decrease in slow-wave sleep per year was linked to a 27 percent increased risk of developing dementia. The rate of slow-wave sleep loss accelerated (加速) from age 60, peaked from ages 75 to 80and slowed afterwards. “This is an important study yet again showing the impact of quality of sleep on a person’s risk of cognitive decline and dementia,” Isaacson said. “It’s important to not only pay attention to the total amount of sleep a person gets each night, but also monitor sleep quality as best as possible.” 12. What can we learn from the new study? A. The older you are, the less sleep you will have. B. Slow-wave sleep has been linked to the risk of dementia. C. The rate of slow-wave sleep loss keeps going up with age. D. The amount of sleep has an impact on the risk of dementia. 13. How did researchers get what they wanted? A. By making a comparison. B. By introducing a concept. C. By referring to another study. D. By making a survey. 14. What did Dr Richard Isaacson suggest? A. Sleep quality needs more attention. B. We should have enough sleep. C. The elderly should sleep more than the young. D. The amount of sleep is more important than sleep quality. 15. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear? A. Sports. B. Health. C. Education. D. Environment. 第二节(共5小题;每小题 2. 5分，满分12. 5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Show emotion If anyone has ever told you to “open up more” or “show some emotion” you may wonder what they really meant.

She took all the pennies from a small box. “I’m going to town tomorrow,” she said. “You are going to town?” Tom asked. He was surprised. “That’s a long way. You see, the snow is thick. What are you going to do in town? Can’t you make it another day when the snow stops?” “It’s a surprise. And I must go there tomorrow!” she said with a determined voice. “Do you want Abe or me to go with you?” Tom asked his wife the next day. “No, don’t worry, honey! I’ll be all right,” she said and went out of the house. Walking in the snow was difficult. It took Mrs. Lincoln a long time to get to town. She bought something in town and wrapped it carefully.

Before I tried the great escape, the door opened.( 当我走进小学时，我低头看了看我的新黑鞋。我站在布莱克斯通夫人的门口。在我试图逃跑之前，门开了)”和第二段中“Over the next few days, Mrs. Blackstone made it her job to find me a new best friend.(在接下来的几天里，布莱克斯通夫人为我找了一个新的好朋友)”可推知，作者是第一次去上学，很可能是因为对新环境不适应，所以不情愿。故选D项。 【5题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段中“One spring afternoon, Mrs. Blackstone asked me to stay after class. “I’d like to speak with you, Amanda.” My mind raced. Had I got a bad grade? Had I hurt anyone’s feelings?( 一个春天的下午，布莱克斯通夫人让我课后留下来。“我想和你谈谈，阿曼达。”我思绪万千。我的分数很低吗？我伤了别人的感情吗？)”可知，当作者被要求课后留下来时，她不知道为什么被留下来，以为是自己犯了错误，心里感到很紧张。故选B项。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段中“She continued, “I see something special in you. The way you communicate with others, and the kindness you show — I think you have great potential (潜力) to be something important.” I listened carefully to every word. “I have been a teacher for over twenty-five years; I can see it. But you must believe in yourself. That’s very important. Remember that and you’ll go far,” she said.( 她继续说：“我看到你身上有特别的东西。你与人交流的方式，以及你表现出的善良——我认为你有很大的潜力成为重要的人物。”我仔细听了每一个字。“我当老师已经二十多年了；我看得出来。但你必须相信自己。这非常重要。记住这一点，你就会走得很远，”她说)”可知，布莱克斯通夫人和作者谈话是为了鼓励作者相信自己。故选D项。 【7题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Years later, her words still remain inside of me.( 多年后，她的话仍然留在我的心里)”可知，作者从未忘记老师说的话。故选C项。 C As you grow rapidly through your teenage years, you will experience a lot of changes. The changes may seem difficult and they may seem to happen quickly. Don’t panic! You will deal successfully with them! You are a young adult now! With more responsibility, you will find more freedom to make your own choices. This is a time to be well informed about your choices so that you can make healthy balanced decisions that will help shape your future. You may already know your career path or you may have no idea at all what you want to do. Both situations are fine! Work hard and the right opportunity will present itself to you. Young adulthood means greater freedom and more choices. You will probably want to be independent. But try not to shut your family out of your life. You should learn to think of others even though you are old enough to look after yourself. Your family have been with you since you came into this world. It is also perfectly natural in this time for you to spend more time with your friends than your family. Choose your friends wisely. A true friend will stand by you no matter what happens. This period is part of the life cycle. There are some people who will be with you throughout life’s journey and there will be some people with whom you part and go separate ways. Leaving school can be hard. The reality is that you may not ever see all of your classmates again. You are a young adult It is your life. No one can live it for you. The choices that you make from now on will be your choices. So making the right choices will be important to you. Life is for living. Enjoy your life wisely! 8. As far as the author is concerned, teenage years are _________. A. a period of complete freedom B. too hard for young people to get through C. an important time for the young to make the right choices D. a very important period for young students to leave their parents 9.

Teenagers. B. Teachers. C. Young parents. D. Adults. 【答案】8. C 9. B 10. D 11. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了少年时光过得很快，经历很多；成年早期意味着较多的自由和较多的选择，要正确做出选择，这样才能取得成功，并向青少年介绍了一些如何让自己在这一人生阶段表现得更好的建议。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“With more responsibility, you will find more freedom to make your own choices. This is a time to be well informed about your choices so that you can make healthy balanced decisions that will help shape your future. (有了更多的责任，你就会有更多的自由来做自己的选择。这是一个充分了解你的选择的时候，这样你就可以做出健康平衡的决定，这将有助于塑造你的未来。)”可知就作者而言，青少年时期是年轻人做出正确选择的重要时刻。故选C。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“There are some people who will be with you throughout life’s journey and there will be some people with whom you part and go separate ways. Leaving school can be hard. The reality is that you may not ever see all of your classmates again. (有些人会陪伴你走过人生的旅程，也有些人会与你分道扬镳。离开学校可能很难。现实情况是，你可能再也见不到所有的同学了。)”可知，离开学校你可能再也见不到所有的同学了，所以这里的some people指的是“你的同学”。故选B。 【10题详解】 主旨大意题。 通读全文可知，尤其第一段“As you grow rapidly through your teenage years, you will experience a lot of changes. The changes may seem difficult and they may seem to happen quickly. Don’t panic! You will deal successfully with them! You are a young adult now! (当你在青少年时期快速成长时，你会经历很多变化。 这些变化可能看起来很困难，但似乎发生得很快。别慌!你会成功地对付他们的！你现在是一个年轻人了! )”可知文章讲述的是如何成功地应付青少年这一阶段，成为一个真正的成年人，所以D项“做一个年轻的成年人”最能体现文章的中心思想。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，尤其第一段“As you grow rapidly through your teenage years, you will experience a lot of changes.

We then found that people with greater declines in slow-wave sleep over time had a higher risk of getting dementia over the next 17 years of follow-up,” said Matthew Pase, senior author of the study. Slow-wave sleep is the third and fourth stages of sleep, which is important for brain health. During this stage, the body removes unwanted or harmful materials from the brain. “For the brain, this deep sleep is thought to be the most restorative,” said Dr Richard Isaacson, who wasn’t involved in the study. The researchers wanted to know whether chronic (慢性的) reductions in slow-wave sleep over time are linked to dementia risk in humans and whether dementia-related processes in the brain may contribute to getting less of this type of sleep. They studied 346 people with an average age of 69 and completed two overnight sleep studies—one between 1995 and 1998 and the second between 1998 and 2001—during which their sleep was monitored. The researchers also investigated whether any change in the amount of slow-wave sleep that participants got was associated with developing dementia up to 17 years after they completed the sleep studies. By that time, 52 participants had been diagnosed with dementia. Each percentage decrease in slow-wave sleep per year was linked to a 27 percent increased risk of developing dementia. The rate of slow-wave sleep loss accelerated (加速) from age 60, peaked from ages 75 to 80and slowed afterwards. “This is an important study yet again showing the impact of quality of sleep on a person’s risk of cognitive decline and dementia,” Isaacson said. “It’s important to not only pay attention to the total amount of sleep a person gets each night, but also monitor sleep quality as best as possible.” 12. What can we learn from the new study? A. The older you are, the less sleep you will have. B. Slow-wave sleep has been linked to the risk of dementia. C. The rate of slow-wave sleep loss keeps going up with age. D. The amount of sleep has an impact on the risk of dementia. 13. How did researchers get what they wanted? A. By making a comparison. B. By introducing a concept. C. By referring to another study. D. By making a survey. 14. What did Dr Richard Isaacson suggest? A. Sleep quality needs more attention. B. We should have enough sleep. C. The elderly should sleep more than the young. D. The amount of sleep is more important than sleep quality. 15. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear? A. Sports. B. Health. C. Education. D. Environment. 【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. B 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要讲述随着年龄增长，人们的深睡眠时间会越来越短。新研究发现，如果深睡眠时间大幅减少，患痴呆症的风险将会大增。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Loss of slow-wave sleep as you age may increase your risk of developing dementia (痴呆), according to a new study.(新研究发现，随着年龄增长，慢波睡眠时间的减少可能会增加患痴呆症的风险)”可知，慢波睡眠与患痴呆症的风险有关。故选B。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“They studied 346 people with an average age of 69 and completed two overnight sleep studies—one between 1995 and 1998 and the second between 1998 and 2001—during which their sleep was monitored. The researchers also investigated whether any change in the amount of slow-wave sleep that participants got was associated with developing dementia up to 17 years after they completed the sleep studies.(研究人员调查了平均年龄69岁的346个人，并且分别在1995年至1998年间以及1998年至2001年间完成了两项夜间睡眠研究，在这期间对他们的睡眠进行了监测。研究人员还调查了参与者慢波睡眠时间的任何变化是否与完成睡眠研究17年后患痴呆症有关)”可知，研究人员是通过做调查的方式得到他们想要的。故选D。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段““This is an important study yet again showing the impact of quality of sleep on a person’s risk of cognitive decline and dementia,” Isaacson said. “It’s important to not only pay attention to the total amount of sleep a person gets each night, but also monitor sleep quality as best as possible.”(“这项重要研究再次表明了睡眠质量对于一个人患上认知衰退和痴呆症风险的影响。”艾萨克森表示：“我们不光要注意一个人每夜睡眠的总时长，也要尽可能监测睡眠质量。”)”可知，Richard Isaacson的建议是要多关注睡眠质量。故选A。 【15题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Loss of slow-wave sleep as you age may increase your risk of developing dementia(痴呆), according to a new study.(新研究发现，随着年龄增长，慢波睡眠时间的减少可能会增加患痴呆症的风险)”可知，这是与健康有关的研究，所以这篇文章很有可能出现在报纸上的“健康”板块。故选B。 第二节(共5小题;每小题 2. 5分，满分12. 5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 How to Show emotion If anyone has ever told you to “open up more” or “show some emotion” you may wonder what they really meant.

It snowed nearly every day and the snow was high around their little farm house. Abe was just a boy, but he had to help his father Tom around the farm. He looked after the house, milked the cow and prepared the dinner. It was hard work, and there wasn’t much fun for him and his brothers and sisters. Abe liked reading, but there was no book there. Abe was not happy. He was sad most of the time and seldom talked or smiled. Mrs. Lincoln, Abe’s stepmother, really loved the boy. She noticed the boy’s silence and was concerned about him. She tried to think of ways to make Abe happy. One day Mrs. Lincoln got up early in the morning. She took all the pennies from a small box. “I’m going to town tomorrow,” she said. “You are going to town?” Tom asked. He was surprised. “That’s a long way. You see, the snow is thick. What are you going to do in town? Can’t you make it another day when the snow stops?” “It’s a surprise. And I must go there tomorrow!” she said with a determined voice. “Do you want Abe or me to go with you?” Tom asked his wife the next day. “No, don’t worry, honey! I’ll be all right,” she said and went out of the house. Walking in the snow was difficult. It took Mrs. Lincoln a long time to get to town. She bought something in town and wrapped it carefully. Then she started back. 注意：续写词数应为150左右 It was late in the evening when she got home. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Abe’s eyes became very wide. ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】One possible answer It was late in the evening when she got home. The whole family was waiting for her. It was still snowing hard outside. Seeing the white frost on his stepmother’s face, little Abe took a cloth and helped to wipe it off gently. Dinner was ready and Abe’s brothers and sisters went to lay the table. But Mrs. Lincoln was not in a hurry. She carefully took out a package from her bag and started to unwrap it. Abe’s eyes became very wide. He fixed his eyes upon the package and watched eagerly. As Mrs. Lincoln tore the package open, a book suddenly came into sight. Little Abe couldn’t help crying out in joy! He ran to get it and found it was an old story book. He couldn’t wait one more minute and began to read it. Soon, he was so absorbed in reading the book that he totally forgot the meal on the table. 【解析】 【分析】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Abe是一个喜爱阅读的小男孩，但是他不得不在农场上帮父亲做事，并且没有书读，他感到很不开心。Abe的继母注意到了这些，冒着风雪出去给他买了一本书回来。Abe非常高兴。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“她到家时已经很晚了。”可知，第一段可描写全家人都在等待继母，继母给Abe带回了一个包裹。 ②由第二段首句内容“Abe的眼睛睁得大大的。”可知，第二段可描写继母给Abe带回来的是一本书，Abe非常高兴。 2.续写线索： 等待——体贴——吃饭——拆包裹——送书——激动——读书 3.词汇激活 行为类 ①帮助：help/assist ②打开：unwrap/unfold ③发现：find/discover 情绪类 ①渴望地：eagerly/longingly ②快乐：joy/happiness 【点睛】[高分句型1] Seeing the white frost on his stepmother’s face, little Abe took a cloth and helped to wipe it off gently.
