I need your help. 2 days ago Lucy Answer 1: I was very shy when I was in high school. Over the last 5 years or so I have worked very hard at overcoming it. I started by making conversations with friends’ friends that I didn’t know. It did take a lot of effort (努力). Now I can talk to almost everyone. Yesterday Tina Answer 2: Yes, I was shy about two years ago. It took me about two years to overcome my shyness. Don’t worry. Find your confidence, and you’ll overcome your fear. 2 hours ago Anna Answer 3: I used to be shy in high school until I started serving in a restaurant. I found that really helpful. I have become more outgoing now because I have to talk to strangers every day. 30 minutes ago 21. What can we learn about Elisabeth? A．She wants to introduce herself.

D．Looking for jobs. 23. Where does the information probably come from? A．A magazine. B．The Internet. C．A newspaper. B Have you met someone who kept talking and talking, and you couldn’t get them to stop? You don’t want to be impolite by telling them to shut up, but you really want to get out of the conversation. Here are some ways to help you. Use body language. While it may feel impolite, you could turn away, leave your headphones on, and avoid looking at his or her eyes, which will show that you don’t want to talk. This may save you from directly telling someone to stop talking later on. Keep working on whatever activity you are doing. Get up and move around, be active and find little things to do instead of listening. Interrupt them as soon as you can. Saying things like “I’d like to add something” or “If I could interrupt you for just a minute” will often let someone know that they are talking too much. Lead the conversation. This is especially helpful when dealing with someone you often talk to. Let them know that you heard what they said and guide the conversation in a different direction. Mention that you don’t have a lot of time to talk. Expressions like “I would love to chat(聊天) but I have to go for a movie right now” and “Today’s not a great day to talk. I have a lot of tasks” will make you easily end the conversation. Remember it is a skill to back out of a conversation without saying “You are boring. Shut up.” 24．How many suggestions does the writer mention in the text? A．Three. B．Four. C．Five. 25．Which of the following is the best way to make someone stop talking? A．Saying someone is boring. B．Getting up and finding something else to do. C．Looking at him or her and listening carefully. 26．What does the underlined word “Interrupt” mean in Chinese? A．离开 B．打断 C．倾听 27．What’s the best title for the text? A．How to End a Conversation Politely B．Polite Ways to Start a Conversation C．How to Lead and Guide a Conversation C Chinese, Japanese and Korean all have simpler number words. They express math concepts (概念) more clearly than English. The language difference has drawn lots of attention. Several recent studies have connected weaker math abilities of English-speaking children with English number words. Chinese, for example, has just ten basic number words. English, however, has more than two dozen (一打) . The trouble starts at English has a word (eleven) for that number. Chinese, Japanese and Korean have words that can be translated as ten-one-spoken with the ten first. That makes it easier for these children to understand the place value (位值) . And the students can easily see the number system comes from units of 10. English number words over 10 don’t make the place value clear. Words for numbers 13 to 19 change the order of the ones and tens. Children often mix 17 with 71. As a result, children working with English number words have a harder time doing difficult calculations (运算) . They make more mistakes. It also feels more natural for Chinese speakers than for English speakers to use the make-a-ten method. When adding two numbers, Chinese students often break down the numbers into parts and regroup (重新组合) them into tens and ones. For example, 9+5 becomes 9+1+4. This method greatly helps students work out math problems. Many teachers in America are teaching their students the make-a-ten method. However, they are still having trouble because of the unclear and difficult English number words. Now, you should feel lucky that you are learning math in China. Thanks to your mother language, all the math problems have become clearer and less difficult. 28．Several recent studies have found a connection between English number words and _________ . A．weaker math abilities of young learners of English B．weaker math abilities of English-speaking children C．stronger math abilities of English-speaking children 29．How many basic number words are there in English? A．Ten. B．Eleven. C．More than two dozen. 30．If you use the make-a-ten method, what will 8+7 become? A．6+2+7 B．7+1+7 C．8+2+5 31．What is the passage mainly about? A．Why some Asian languages can make math learning easier. B．Why some Asian languages are easier than English. C．How Asian children do basic calculations within ten. 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。每个选项仅使用一次。 Sometimes we may forget something easily. Don’t worry.

Do you know that many people are trying to learn a new language these days? Some of them consider it as a hobby, while others have to learn a language because it is required by their jobs or study. As a foreigner, I’m really interested in Chinese culture. That’s why I like learning Chinese. Now I’d like to share the experience of how I have learned Chinese well with you. It is thought that a person needs to know at least 3,000 Chinese characters (汉字) to understand most Chinese newspapers. The problem for most foreigners, however, is that knowing 3,000 characters sounds like an impossible task, for many of the Chinese characters look the same. That’s why some people give up halfway. 39.这对我来说也是最难的部分。But I try to learn how to write each character by watching videos online. Whenever I saw a character I didn’t know in the street or on a menu, I would just write it down on my phone and then look it up. 40.Slowly I’ve learned the characters that are common in daily life. As for speaking, I practice talking about different topics in Chinese when I am cycling around, talking to myself or in my head, thinking through different conversations and scenes. For example, whenever I was going to a shop, I would think how to say that in Chinese. It helps me to think in a Chinese way, which is really important. Learning a language is never easy. But as long as I learn it step by step, I will make progress day by day. 56．Why does Adam Simth like learning Chinese? 57．Is knowing 3,000 Chinese characters difficult for most foreigners? 58．How does Adam Simth learn to write each Chinese character? 59．将划线的句子翻译成英文。 60．将划线的句子翻译成中文。 五、书面表达（共15分） 61．学校举办弘扬中国传统节日为主题的征文比赛，假如你是李华，请你根据下面的提示写一篇不少于80 词的英语短文，介绍一下中国的传统节日——春节，并谈谈你的感受。 Festival The Spring Festival When come in January or February; from the first day of the first lunar month to 15th Meaning a symbol of togetherness and happiness; wishes for the new year; family… Food dumplings; fish; some special food… Activities sweep out dust from houses; have a big family dinner; set off fireworks; greet friends and relatives; make new year resolutions; enjoy the dragon and lion dances… Your feelings … 要求: (1)短文必须包括表格中的所有要点，可适当发挥; (2)文中不得出现真实人名和班级。 _________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 参考答案： 题号 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 10 答案 B A C C A A B C B C 题号 11 12 13 14 15 16 17 18 19 20 答案 B B A C A C A B B C 题号 21 22 23 24 25 26 27 28 29 30 答案 B A B C B B A B C C 题号 31 32 33 34 35 36 37 38 39 40 答案 A B E A C B C A C B 题号 41 42 43 44 45 答案 C A B A B 46. an 47. on 48. before 49. brightly 50. like 51. are made 52. giving 53.traditional 54. to enjoy 55.
