I’m not sure there’s any specific advice I can give to cheer you up. It’s sometimes quite annoying to be reminded how much people love you when you don’t love yourself that much. I’ve found that it’s of some help to compare one’s moods(情绪)about the world to the weather.  Here are some obvious things about the weather: It’s real. If it’s dark and rainy, it really is. It isn’t under one’s control as to when the rain stops, but it will stop one day. You can’t change it by wishing it away. It really is the same with one’s moods．The wrong approach is to believe that they are illusions(幻想). Panic, anxiety and anger are as real as weather. But they will pass; they really will. In the same way that one has to accept the weather, one has to accept how one feels about life. “Today’s a bad day” is a perfect approach.“Hey-ho, it’s raining inside; it isn’t my mistake, and there’s nothing I can do about it. But when the sun comes out, I shall take full advantage.” I don’t know if any of that is of any use... I just hope this brings you a little more pleasure and purpose in life. Best wishes! Yours, Stephen Fry 29．How does Crystal feel according to the letter? A．Ignored. B．Ashamed. C．Panicked.

You could have both. You’re noticing that time spent on academic learning is time not spent with friends. That time cost will get worse as you get older, rounded with working, achievement-hunting or family responsibilities. Many achievers have woken up at age 50 or 70, only to wonder where all of their friends and soft memories were. It is too easy to forget why we are trying to gain money and knowledge. It is for a life well-lived instead of money and knowledge themselves. Smart people make this stupid mistake all the time, in search for the means to an end so much that they forget the end altogether. The trick is to see your day, not your life, as the place where you carry out your priorities. Every day there will be one more task you could do. Teach yourself to stop even though there’s more to do. Think of things you have missed out in your life and promise yourself you won’t do them again: “I won’t cancel on a friend’s birthday” or “I won’t speak to my family as though I’m the lead.” Giving slightly less time to work doesn’t mean achieving less. I have been lucky to know some seriously achieving people in my life from Rhodes scholars to Nobel Prize and Pulitzer Prize winners. None of them are in their office at 11 p.m. flapping papers. If they were, they would not have such energy for their greatness. You don’t have to choose between life and work since making time for one helps the other. But you have to make the time since how you plan your day is how you plan your life. Eleanor Gordon-Smith 35．What problem is troubling Alexa? A．How to adapt to her school life. B．How to balance her studies and social life. C．How to improve her test grades. D．How to get along well with her classmates. 36．What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 2 mean? A．It is too late to make friends at 50 or 70. B．Many people lose their memory at 50 or 70. C．The elderly are fond of thinking back the old days. D．Regret on the time spending may be expressed by old achievers. 37．Why does Mr. Smith share the examples of award-winning people? A．To encourage necessary rest among tasks. B．To summarize useful methods in learning. C．To praise their achievements in their fields. D．To list common qualities of successful people. 38．Which of the following would the author most likely agree with? A．Hard work is the key to success. B．A friend is easier lost than found. C．There are more important things than prizes. D．It is significant to make the most of time in a day. 【答案】35．B 36．D 37．A 38．C 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。作者通过这封信向亚历克莎传达了关于如何平衡学习、工作和社交生活的建议。 35．细节理解题。根据第二段“You’re noticing that time spent on academic learning is time not spent with friends.(你注意到，花在学习上的时间就没有花在与朋友相处上)”可知，让亚历克莎感到困惑的是如何平衡社交和学习生活，故选B项。 36．推理判断题。根据第二段“Many achievers have woken up at age 50 or 70, only to wonder where all of their friends and soft memories were(许多成功人士在50岁或70岁时才恍然大悟，疑惑自己所有的朋友和那些美好的回忆都去了哪里)”以及第三段“It is too easy to forget why we are trying to gain money and knowledge. It is for a life well-lived instead of money and knowledge themselves(我们太容易忘记为何我们努力赚钱和获取知识。我们是为了过上充实的生活，而不仅仅是赚钱和获取知识本身)”可推理出，划线部分表达的是成功人士太容易忘记为何要努力赚钱和获取知识，然而到了50岁或70岁时，会对过去的日子感到后悔，故选D项。 37．推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“I have been lucky to know some seriously achieving people in my life from Rhodes scholars to Nobel Prize and Pulitzer Prize winners. None of them are in their office at 11 p.m. flapping papers. If they were, they would not have such energy for their greatness(我很幸运地认识了一些非常成功的人，他们中有罗德奖学金获得者，也有诺贝尔奖和普利策奖得主。他们中没有一个会在晚上11点还在办公室里手忙脚乱地处理文件。如果他们这样做，他们就不会有如此多的精力去成就伟大事业)”可知，史密斯先生分享获奖者的例子的目的是为了鼓励在任务之间必要的休息，故选A项。 38．推理判断题。根据第四段“Every day there will be one more task you could do. Teach yourself to stop even though there’s more to do. Think of things you have missed out in your life and promise yourself you won’t do them again(每天都会有一项你可以完成的任务。学会适可而止，即使还有更多事情要做。想想你人生中错过的事情，并承诺自己不再重蹈覆辙)”、倒数第二段“I have been lucky to know some seriously achieving people in my life from Rhodes scholars to Nobel Prize and Pulitzer Prize winners. None of them are in their office at 11 p.m. flapping papers. If they were, they would not have such energy for their greatness(我很幸运地认识了一些非常成功的人，他们中有罗德奖学金获得者，也有诺贝尔奖和普利策奖得主。他们中没有一个会在晚上11点还在办公室里手忙脚乱地处理文件。如果他们这样做，他们就不会有如此多的精力去成就伟大事业)”以及最后一段“You don’t have to choose between life and work since making time for one helps the other. But you have to make the time since how you plan your day is how you plan your life(你不需要在生活和工作之间做出选择，因为为其中一方腾出时间也会有助于另一方。但你必须腾出时间，因为你规划一天的方式就是你规划生活的方式)”可知，作者认为成功的人生不需要在生活和工作之间做出选择，要学会做好规划，适可而止，因为人生中不只有工作，还有比工作中获得的奖励更重要的东西，故选C项。 （十三） （23-24高一上·四川德阳·期末）Thinking on the Other Side of Zero Part 2 Alan Joseph Oliver Hardback | Paperback | E-book $40.99 | $20.99 | $4.99 From the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali he learned and how it works in theory and practice, Alan Joseph Oliver relates the Yoga theory to his limited understanding of quantum mechanics.

And if you choose films that you enjoy watching, you’ll learn English without even realising it! Here are four movies that are perfect for English learners. Charlotte’s Web (2006) Story: The power of friendship between a pig(Wilbur)and a spider(Charlotte). The live-action film, a fine adaptation of E. B．White’s book, will entertain the young audience with cute talking animals and easy-to-follow language. Adults will also be charmed by heartwarming good time and learn to look at the world with curiosity and joy. Toy Story(1995) Story: A cartoon film about toys that come to life when children and adults aren’t around. The storylines are clear and the characters use simple but useful language. Though it’s mainly for kids, Toy Story doesn’t feel childish. The story and jokes also attracted adults, so parents would be more likely to take their children to see the film. Charlie & the Chocolate Factory (1971) Story: Things go wrong when a group of kids get a free tour of Willy Wonka’s chocolate factory. This film is also great for English learners as it is generally easy to follow. And you’ll hear some extracts(选段) from English literature because Willy often quotes well-known writers  such as Oscar Wilde and Shakespeare. The Sound of Music(1965) Story: A young woman (Maria) becomes the nanny for seven children in a house in the Austrian  Alps. The Sound of Music is a musical and listening to music is one of the best ways to improve your English. Many of the film’s songs have become classics because they’re so catchy. 48．Which movie attracts cartoon lovers most? A．Charlotte’s Web(2006). B．Toy Story(1995).

Touhy Avenue, you’ll find a pleasantly European surprise — a half-sized copy of the Leaning Tower of Pisa.

I’m not sure there’s any specific advice I can give to cheer you up. It’s sometimes quite annoying to be reminded how much people love you when you don’t love yourself that much. I’ve found that it’s of some help to compare one’s moods(情绪)about the world to the weather.  Here are some obvious things about the weather: It’s real. If it’s dark and rainy, it really is. It isn’t under one’s control as to when the rain stops, but it will stop one day. You can’t change it by wishing it away. It really is the same with one’s moods．The wrong approach is to believe that they are illusions(幻想). Panic, anxiety and anger are as real as weather. But they will pass; they really will. In the same way that one has to accept the weather, one has to accept how one feels about life. “Today’s a bad day” is a perfect approach.“Hey-ho, it’s raining inside; it isn’t my mistake, and there’s nothing I can do about it. But when the sun comes out, I shall take full advantage.” I don’t know if any of that is of any use... I just hope this brings you a little more pleasure and purpose in life. Best wishes! Yours, Stephen Fry 29．How does Crystal feel according to the letter? A．Ignored. B．Ashamed. C．Panicked. D．Unhappy. 30．Stephen Fry writes to Crystal to________． A．offer tips on making friends B．teach skills of writing poems C．share comfort and encouragement D．explain ways of observing weather 31．In which column(专栏)of a school website will you find the text?

You could have both. You’re noticing that time spent on academic learning is time not spent with friends. That time cost will get worse as you get older, rounded with working, achievement-hunting or family responsibilities. Many achievers have woken up at age 50 or 70, only to wonder where all of their friends and soft memories were. It is too easy to forget why we are trying to gain money and knowledge. It is for a life well-lived instead of money and knowledge themselves. Smart people make this stupid mistake all the time, in search for the means to an end so much that they forget the end altogether. The trick is to see your day, not your life, as the place where you carry out your priorities. Every day there will be one more task you could do. Teach yourself to stop even though there’s more to do. Think of things you have missed out in your life and promise yourself you won’t do them again: “I won’t cancel on a friend’s birthday” or “I won’t speak to my family as though I’m the lead.” Giving slightly less time to work doesn’t mean achieving less. I have been lucky to know some seriously achieving people in my life from Rhodes scholars to Nobel Prize and Pulitzer Prize winners. None of them are in their office at 11 p.m. flapping papers. If they were, they would not have such energy for their greatness. You don’t have to choose between life and work since making time for one helps the other. But you have to make the time since how you plan your day is how you plan your life. Eleanor Gordon-Smith 35．What problem is troubling Alexa? A．How to adapt to her school life. B．How to balance her studies and social life. C．How to improve her test grades. D．How to get along well with her classmates. 36．What does the underlined sentence in paragraph 2 mean? A．It is too late to make friends at 50 or 70. B．Many people lose their memory at 50 or 70. C．The elderly are fond of thinking back the old days. D．Regret on the time spending may be expressed by old achievers. 37．Why does Mr. Smith share the examples of award-winning people? A．To encourage necessary rest among tasks. B．To summarize useful methods in learning. C．To praise their achievements in their fields. D．To list common qualities of successful people. 38．Which of the following would the author most likely agree with? A．Hard work is the key to success. B．A friend is easier lost than found. C．There are more important things than prizes. D．It is significant to make the most of time in a day. （十三） （23-24高一上·四川德阳·期末）Thinking on the Other Side of Zero Part 2 Alan Joseph Oliver Hardback | Paperback | E-book $40.99 | $20.99 | $4.99 From the Yoga Sutras of Patanjali he learned and how it works in theory and practice, Alan Joseph Oliver relates the Yoga theory to his limited understanding of quantum mechanics.
