Luckily, you’re not the only person going through this, and plenty of others have made the transition before you too. One of the ways in which high school is different from middle school or junior high the most is the higher expectations. You’ll find that you’re expected to keep closer track of your own schedule and responsibilities with fewer people checking up on you. At the same time, your classes are likely to become more challenging, and you might be participating in new school activities as well. Some students find it hard to keep up with everything at first, which is totally normal. One way to prepare in advance for these higher expectations is to make sure that you have organized schedules in place before you start high school. Another important skill for meeting these higher expectations is building a strong support network. No matter how strong a student you are, at some point you will need some help. Keeping healthy relationships with your friends and teachers is a great way to make sure that you have people who are willing to help when you need them. Try to get to know at least some of your teachers beyond your classroom communication. Be an active learner during class and stay after class to ask questions. Take advantage of email or class messaging systems. The better your teachers know you, the better prepared they’ll be to help when you need them. It’s important for you to keep in mind as you start high school that no one is perfect. Transitions are hard for everyone, and starting high school is a big transition. These challenges provide a great chance to reinvent (重塑) yourself. 4. In the author’s view, the biggest difference between high school and middle school is ________. A. different relationships B. the higher pressure C. high academic achievement D. the higher expectations 5. Which of the following suggestion is not mentioned in the text? A. Careful schedules. B. Healthy relationships. C. Reinventing yourself. D. Using network information. 6. Who is the article written for? A. Students in junior school. B. Teachers in high school. C. Parents of high school students. D. Students in senior high school. 7. What is the best title for the text? A. How to Get Through the Transition of Freshman Year of High School B. How to Become an Active Learner in High School C. What to Prepare to Keep up with Everything in High School D. How to Meet Your Teacher’s High Expectations 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. D 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章阐述了高一时期对任何新生来说都是一个很大的转变，然后介绍了初中和高中的不同并对新的高中生活提出建议。文章旨在引导高一新生积极适应新环境，并且掌握正确有效的学习方法。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段第一句“One of the ways in which high school is different from middle school or junior high the most is the higher expectations. (高中与初中最不同的一个方面是更高的期望。)”可知，高中与初中最大的不同就是被给予的期望更高。故选D项。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段第二句中的“One way to prepare in advance for these higher expectations is to make sure that you have organized schedules in place before you start high school.(提前为这些更高的期望做好准备的一种方法是确保在开始高中之前，你已经安排好了时间表。)”可知，高一新生需要有序地安排日程表，可排除A项；第五段第三句中的“Keeping healthy relationships with your friends and teachers is a great way to make sure that you have people who are willing to help when you need them.(与朋友和老师保持健康的关系是确保你有愿意在需要时提供帮助的人的好方法。)”说明要和朋友、老师保持健康的关系，排除B项；由第六段第三句“Take advantage of email or class messaging systems.(利用电子邮件或课堂信息系统)”可知，学生可以利用电子邮件或课堂信息系统，排除D项。根据最后一段最后一句“These challenges provide a great chance to reinvent (重塑) yourself.(这些挑战为重塑自我提供了绝佳的机会。)”可知，我们有机会重塑自己，与建议无关。故选C项。 【6题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“It’s important for you to keep in mind as you start high school that no one is perfect. Transitions are hard for everyone, and starting high school is a big transition. These challenges provide a great chance to reinvent (重塑)yourself.(当你开始上高中时，重要的是要记住没有人是完美的。转变对每个人来说都很难，开始高中生活是一个巨大的转变。这些挑战提供了一个重塑自我的好机会)”可知，本文是写给刚刚开始上高中的高一学生的。故选D项。 【7题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文，特别由文章第一段“Freshman year of high school is a big transition (过渡) for any student.(高中一年级对任何学生来说都是一个巨大的转变)”可知，高中一年级对任何学生来说都是一个巨大的转变，而下文接着介绍了如何应对这一转变。由此可知，How to Get Through the Transition of Freshman Year of High School(如何度过高中一年级的过渡期)适合作本文最佳标题。故选A项。 C The COVID-19 pandemic had shut down Chicago, where Palmer Skudneski was living. Kerry Stutzman was visiting her 22-year-old son and saw how busy streets started looking empty. Stutzman started to worry about his safety. “There was this sense of — he’s going to get stuck in this city with no family and be alone in his apartment,” Stutzman says. So, she invited her son to come back home to Colorado. She thought it wouldn’t be long. It was March 25, 2020. Two years later, Palmer is still living in Stutzman’s home. But so much has changed since then, for Stutzman and her son. Raising Palmer was among the most difficult challenges Stutzman faced as a parent. Palmer was just a punk (小混混) of a teenager. He was a really hard kid. “There was a period when he hated me. He was really clear that he just couldn’t stand me,” Stutzman says. A painful divorce (离婚) had divided their family. Palmer was sad and full of anger. Stutzman kept trying to connect. But it felt like her son had put up a wall that was impossible to go through. Finally, things got so bad that Stutzman sent Palmer for therapy (治疗). He came back much sweeter. But it wasn’t long before he was off to college. Stutzman had to watch from afar as the boy she’d tried hard to raise began to grow up. The pandemic finally gave her a chance to see the man her son had become. There were family dinners and heart-to-heart talks. The coffees and meals Palmer had refused as a teenager became time they both treasured. For his part, Palmer says at first he dreaded returning home. “It sounded like it was going to be a terrible experience,” he says. “I wasn’t loving the idea of having her tell me to put my dishes away.” But Palmer found comfort in his mom’s efforts (努力) to take care of their family. What’s more, he had the chance to get to know her as a human, not just as a mom — seeing the happiness she gets from her work and the way she and his stepdad (继父) support each other. 8. What did Stutzman do when COVID-19 hit the city where Palmer lived? A. She canceled her plans to visit him. B. She made a phone call to him every day. C. She moved into his apartment to look after him. D. She asked him to return home and live with her. 9. Which word best describes Stutzman’s relationship with Palmer when he was a teenager? A. Close. B. Healthy. C. Poor. D. Uncertain. 10. What does the underlined word “dreaded” mean in paragraph 8? A. Suggested. B. Feared. C. Remembered. D. Risked. 11. In what way did Stutzman and Palmer change during COVID-19? A. They learned to live independently. B. They valued their work more greatly. C. They started seeing each other differently. D. They got used to new means of communication. 【答案】8. D 9. C 10. B 11. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是记叙文。疫情期间，Kerry Stutzman与儿子Palmer终于有机会相处，深入了解彼此，感情也变得更深厚。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段““There was this sense of — he’s going to get stuck in this city with no family and be alone in his apartment,” Stutzman says. So, she invited her son to come back home to Colorado. She thought it wouldn’t be long. (“有一种感觉——他会被困在这个城市里，没有家人，独自一人住在他的公寓里，”斯图茨曼说。所以，她邀请她的儿子回到科罗拉多州的家中。她以为不会太久。)”可知，当Palmer所居住的城市有疫情时，Stutzman请儿子回她家住上一段时间。故选D。 【9题详解】 推理判断题。根据第四段““There was a period when he hated me. He was really clear that he just couldn’t stand me,” Stutzman says. (“有一段时间他恨我。他很清楚，他就是受不了我，”斯图茨曼说。)”以及第五段“A painful divorce (离婚) had divided their family. Palmer was sad and full of anger. Stutzman kept trying to connect. But it felt like her son had put up a wall that was impossible to go through. (一场痛苦的离婚使他们的家庭四分五裂。帕默很伤心，充满了愤怒。斯图茨曼一直在尝试联系。但感觉就像她儿子竖起了一堵墙，让她无法穿过。)”可推断，Stutzman与青少年时期的Palmer之间的关系不太好。故选C。 【10题详解】 词句猜测题。根据划线词后文““It sounded like it was going to be a terrible experience,” he says. “I wasn’t loving the idea of having her tell me to put my dishes away.” (帕默说，一开始他害怕回家。“听起来这将是一次可怕的经历，”他说。“我不喜欢让她告诉我把盘子收起来。”)”可知，Palmer起初害怕回家。故划线词dreaded意为“惧怕，害怕，畏惧”。故选B。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第三段“The pandemic finally gave her a chance to see the man her son had become. There were family dinners and heart-to-heart talks. The coffees and meals Palmer had refused as a teenager became time they both treasured. (大流行终于给了她一个机会，让她看到儿子变成了什么样的人。有家庭聚餐和谈心。帕尔默十几岁时拒绝的咖啡和饭菜变成了他们俩都很珍惜的时光。)”及最后一段“But Palmer found comfort in his mom’s efforts (努力) to take care of their family. What’s more, he had the chance to get to know her as a human, not just as a mom — seeing the happiness she gets from her work and the way she and his stepdad (继父) support each other. (但帕默从母亲照顾家庭的努力中得到了安慰。更重要的是，他有机会了解她作为一个人，而不仅仅是一个母亲——看到她从工作中得到的快乐，以及她和继父相互支持的方式。)”可知，疫情让Stutzman和儿子Palmer有机会相处，了解彼此，最终母子关系得到改善。故选C。 D Do you love seeing beautiful lanterns outside? The best time to do this is during the Lantern Festival, which falls on the 15th day of the first lunar (阴历) month. This year it is on Feb22, marking the end of Spring Festival celebrations. Lanterns are a big part of the festival. One story says that the bright lanterns show respect for gods. Another says that people light lanterns to celebrate the declining (消退的) darkness of winter. Watching lanterns is a great event. You see lanterns in any sizes and shapes you can imagine, from animals to plants and flowers. To make this activity more fun, people paste (粘贴) riddles (谜语) on the lanterns. “Ten plus ten, still is ten, ten minus ten, again is ten.” Guess what? It is a pair of gloves. In some places, people like releasing sky lanterns, which are called Kongming lanterns. A sky lantern is a small hot air balloon made of paper, with an opening at the bottom, where there is a small fire source. When the bright lights fly high in the sky, people bless family members and make wishes. Releasing river lights is also a way to bless for each other. Usually, the lights are in the shape of a lotus (荷花). In old times, the Lantern Festival was also romantic. At that time, young girls were not allowed to go out very often except during certain festivals. Therefore, looking at lanterns gave young people a chance to meet each other. A line from Xin Qiji, a poet during the Song Dynasty, shows this: “Anxiously, I searched for her in thousands, hundreds of ways. Suddenly I turned, and there she was in the declining light.” 12. When do people celebrate the Lantern Festival? A. On the 22nd day of the first lunar month. B. On the 15th day of the first solar month. C. On the 22nd day of February every year. D. On the 15th day of the first lunar month. 13. Which of the following statements about the Lantern Festival is TRUE? A. People paste riddles to show off their knowledge. B. Young girls were not allowed to go out on the day. C. People light lanterns to drive animals away. D. People make wishes when releasing lights. 14. How do you feel about the line from Xin Qiji? A. Sad. B. Scared. C. Romantic. D. Anxious. 15. What would be the best title for the text? A. The Origin of the Lantern Festival B. River Lights on the Lantern Festival C. Celebrations of the Lantern Festival D. A day to Guess Lantern Riddles 【答案】12. D 13. D 14. C 15. C 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。短文介绍了元宵节的庆祝形式。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“The best time to do this is during the Lantern Festival, which falls on the 15th day of the first lunar (阴历) month.”（这样做的最好的时间是在阴历正月十五的元宵节）可知，人们在阴历正月十五庆祝元宵节。故选D项。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“When the bright lights fly high in the sky, people bless family members and make wishes.”（当明亮的灯光在天空中高高飘扬时，人们祝福家人并许愿）可知，人们放灯时会许愿。故选D项。 【14题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“In old times, the Lantern Festival was also romantic. A line from Xin Qiji, a poet during the Song Dynasty, shows this: “Anxiously, I searched for her in thousands, hundreds of ways. Suddenly I turned, and there she was in the declining light.””（在古代，元宵节也是一个浪漫的节日。宋朝诗人辛弃疾的一句诗就说明了这一点:“众里寻他千百度，蓦然回首，那人却在，灯火阑珊处”）可知，辛弃疾的词是很浪漫的。故选C项。 15题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第三段“Watching lanterns is a great event.”（赏灯是一个大的事件），第四段“In some places, people like releasing sky lanterns.”（在一些地方，人们喜欢放天灯），以及第五段“In old times, the Lantern Festival was also romantic. At that time, young girls were not allowed to go out very often except during certain festivals.”（在古代，元宵节也是一个浪漫的节日。在那个时候，除了某些节日，年轻女孩是不允许经常外出的）可知，文章主要介绍了元宵节的庆祝形式。故选C项。 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Why is Chinese a Good Language to Learn If there’s one language in the world that’s worth learning it’s the Chinese language. You must be wondering why. ____16____ Gain the job opportunities. With the steady development for decades, China has become the second largest economic power in the world while keeping closely connected with the west. ____17____ It helps a lot if you’re looking to work in a career that involves dealing with Chinese buyers or suppliers. Know about the history and culture. ____18____ In fact, China has had a significant say in the history of the world. It’s agreed that four great inventions — namely paper-making, printing, gunpowder and the compass — made their way from China to Europe via the famous Silk Road. To really understand the contribution of this part of the world and have a deep insight into the history of Asia, speaking the language can be beneficial. ____19____ Chinese literature, both ancient and modern, comes from an entirely different cultural background than literature written in the West. To really appreciate it, however, you have to read it in the original language. Many works of Chinese literature haven’t been translated into English, so you have no choice but to enjoy them as they stand. If you want to understand modern China, learning the Chinese language is vital. Enjoy the food. In Britain, we’re familiar with Chinese food — or at least, a Westernized version of it. By learning the Chinese language, you’ll start to understand exactly what all of those words on the menu mean. In time, you might feel more comfortable ordering something that’s a little bit less familiar. ____20____ A. Translate the literature. B. Appreciate the literature. C. Here come a few good reasons to learn the language. D. Therefore, the ability to speak Chinese language is pretty valuable. E. China is home to the history and culture that runs for thousands of years. F. You might even develop an appreciation for Chinese cuisine for its varieties. G. Chinese culture has had a great influence on the world for thousands of years. 【答案】16. C 17. D 18. E 19. B 20.

B Freshman year of high school is a big transition (过渡) for any student. Luckily, you’re not the only person going through this, and plenty of others have made the transition before you too. One of the ways in which high school is different from middle school or junior high the most is the higher expectations. You’ll find that you’re expected to keep closer track of your own schedule and responsibilities with fewer people checking up on you. At the same time, your classes are likely to become more challenging, and you might be participating in new school activities as well. Some students find it hard to keep up with everything at first, which is totally normal. One way to prepare in advance for these higher expectations is to make sure that you have organized schedules in place before you start high school. Another important skill for meeting these higher expectations is building a strong support network. No matter how strong a student you are, at some point you will need some help. Keeping healthy relationships with your friends and teachers is a great way to make sure that you have people who are willing to help when you need them. Try to get to know at least some of your teachers beyond your classroom communication. Be an active learner during class and stay after class to ask questions. Take advantage of email or class messaging systems. The better your teachers know you, the better prepared they’ll be to help when you need them. It’s important for you to keep in mind as you start high school that no one is perfect. Transitions are hard for everyone, and starting high school is a big transition. These challenges provide a great chance to reinvent (重塑) yourself. 4. In the author’s view, the biggest difference between high school and middle school is ________. A. different relationships B. the higher pressure C. high academic achievement D. the higher expectations 5. Which of the following suggestion is not mentioned in the text? A. Careful schedules. B. Healthy relationships. C. Reinventing yourself. D. Using network information. 6. Who is the article written for? A. Students in junior school. B. Teachers in high school. C. Parents of high school students. D. Students in senior high school. 7. What is the best title for the text? A. How to Get Through the Transition of Freshman Year of High School B. How to Become an Active Learner in High School C. What to Prepare to Keep up with Everything in High School D. How to Meet Your Teacher’s High Expectations C The COVID-19 pandemic had shut down Chicago, where Palmer Skudneski was living. Kerry Stutzman was visiting her 22-year-old son and saw how busy streets started looking empty. Stutzman started to worry about his safety. “There was this sense of — he’s going to get stuck in this city with no family and be alone in his apartment,” Stutzman says. So, she invited her son to come back home to Colorado. She thought it wouldn’t be long. It was March 25, 2020. Two years later, Palmer is still living in Stutzman’s home. But so much has changed since then, for Stutzman and her son. Raising Palmer was among the most difficult challenges Stutzman faced as a parent. Palmer was just a punk (小混混) of a teenager. He was a really hard kid. “There was a period when he hated me. He was really clear that he just couldn’t stand me,” Stutzman says. A painful divorce (离婚) had divided their family. Palmer was sad and full of anger. Stutzman kept trying to connect. But it felt like her son had put up a wall that was impossible to go through. Finally, things got so bad that Stutzman sent Palmer for therapy (治疗). He came back much sweeter. But it wasn’t long before he was off to college. Stutzman had to watch from afar as the boy she’d tried hard to raise began to grow up. The pandemic finally gave her a chance to see the man her son had become. There were family dinners and heart-to-heart talks. The coffees and meals Palmer had refused as a teenager became time they both treasured. For his part, Palmer says at first he dreaded returning home. “It sounded like it was going to be a terrible experience,” he says. “I wasn’t loving the idea of having her tell me to put my dishes away.” But Palmer found comfort in his mom’s efforts (努力) to take care of their family. What’s more, he had the chance to get to know her as a human, not just as a mom — seeing the happiness she gets from her work and the way she and his stepdad (继父) support each other. 8. What did Stutzman do when COVID-19 hit the city where Palmer lived? A. She canceled her plans to visit him. B. She made a phone call to him every day. C. She moved into his apartment to look after him. D. She asked him to return home and live with her. 9. Which word best describes Stutzman’s relationship with Palmer when he was a teenager? A. Close. B. Healthy. C. Poor. D. Uncertain. 10. What does the underlined word “dreaded” mean in paragraph 8? A. Suggested. B. Feared. C. Remembered. D. Risked. 11. In what way did Stutzman and Palmer change during COVID-19? A. They learned to live independently. B. They valued their work more greatly. C. They started seeing each other differently. D. They got used to new means of communication. D Do you love seeing beautiful lanterns outside? The best time to do this is during the Lantern Festival, which falls on the 15th day of the first lunar (阴历) month. This year it is on Feb22, marking the end of Spring Festival celebrations. Lanterns are a big part of the festival. One story says that the bright lanterns show respect for gods. Another says that people light lanterns to celebrate the declining (消退的) darkness of winter. Watching lanterns is a great event. You see lanterns in any sizes and shapes you can imagine, from animals to plants and flowers. To make this activity more fun, people paste (粘贴) riddles (谜语) on the lanterns. “Ten plus ten, still is ten, ten minus ten, again is ten.” Guess what? It is a pair of gloves. In some places, people like releasing sky lanterns, which are called Kongming lanterns. A sky lantern is a small hot air balloon made of paper, with an opening at the bottom, where there is a small fire source. When the bright lights fly high in the sky, people bless family members and make wishes. Releasing river lights is also a way to bless for each other. Usually, the lights are in the shape of a lotus (荷花). In old times, the Lantern Festival was also romantic. At that time, young girls were not allowed to go out very often except during certain festivals. Therefore, looking at lanterns gave young people a chance to meet each other. A line from Xin Qiji, a poet during the Song Dynasty, shows this: “Anxiously, I searched for her in thousands, hundreds of ways. Suddenly I turned, and there she was in the declining light.” 12. When do people celebrate the Lantern Festival? A. On the 22nd day of the first lunar month. B. On the 15th day of the first solar month. C. On the 22nd day of February every year. D. On the 15th day of the first lunar month. 13. Which of the following statements about the Lantern Festival is TRUE? A. People paste riddles to show off their knowledge. B. Young girls were not allowed to go out on the day. C. People light lanterns to drive animals away. D. People make wishes when releasing lights. 14. How do you feel about the line from Xin Qiji? A. Sad. B. Scared. C. Romantic. D. Anxious. 15. What would be the best title for the text? A. The Origin of the Lantern Festival B River Lights on the Lantern Festival C. Celebrations of the Lantern Festival D. A day to Guess Lantern Riddles 第二节 (共5小题;每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Why is Chinese a Good Language to Learn If there’s one language in the world that’s worth learning, it’s the Chinese language.

If you want to understand modern China, learning the Chinese language is vital. Enjoy the food. In Britain, we’re familiar with Chinese food — or at least, a Westernized version of it.

In time, you might feel more comfortable ordering something that’s a little bit less familiar. ____20____ A. Translate the literature. B. Appreciate the literature. C.
