Welcoming New Lifestyles
Hygge has been popular in the UK for over a year. It means to create a relaxed and comfortable mood. It can be felt by relaxing activities like chatting with friends. Besides, hygge is also about learning to be happy with simple things. This really resonated (共鸣) with me. I feel stressed at home because my small flat is packed with much stuff. I decide to throw the things that don’t hold memories. Doing this would help me feel hygge.
Last year, lagom, a Swedish word meaning “just the right amount”, became popular. Lagom is about seeking a balance of work and life. It’s also about living more sustainably (可持续地) by saving more energy, creating less waste and recycling more.
Next year, I won’t have to replace things so often. Plus, I keep thinking about recycling and hoping to save as much money as possible. So, I can get on board with lagom.
Coming from Japan, wabi sabi is about finding beauty in imperfection. Wabi refers to the failings in the production process, which makes an object special. Sabi describes the beauty that comes with age. The tradition of wabi sabi can offer a new way to view our homes. I am a perfectionist and I keep my home tidy. But now, my girls put their toys everywhere. So, I have to see the mess and accept the imperfections.
In the Japanese concept, ikigai means “a reason for being”, which can bring satisfaction and meaning to life. Many people believe ikigai can be found at what you are good at and what you love doing. For me, it is blogging. This year I can do more writing tasks that interest me. And if I notice the things that bring me no joy, I can stay away from them in the future. Hopefully, this will help me to lead a more meaningful life.
21. If a person wants to enjoy a simple but happy life, which lifestyle is suitable?
A. Hygge. B. Lagom. C. Wabi sabi. D. Ikigai.
22. To live a lifestyle of wabi sabi one has to ________.

C. be happy and find out the meaning of life
D. throw away the useless and live a simple life

An Art Class
When Kelly was twelve, she started taking classes at Miss Grace’s School for Art. She didn’t like it at first: the “novice artists” — the kids who hadn’t really done art before — worked mostly with clay, and Kelly was a terrible sculptor (雕塑家).
It wasn’t until her third year that Kelly found something she was really good at — charcoal drawing (素描). She loved watching the lines spread unevenly across the page as she moved the bits of charcoal back and forth over the paper.
One day Sophia, the best artist in her class, sat down and set up her easel (画架) next to Kelly. Kelly felt a sinking feeling in her stomach. She’d actually found an art form that she enjoyed — and was good at — and now Sophia was going to outshine her again? Kelly fought back tears when Miss Grace entered the room.
“Hello class” Miss Grace said. “We’ll continue to work on the project today.”
What masterpiece would Sophia have come up with?
Kelly looked at Sophia’s easel and she couldn’t believe it — it was a mess! For a brief moment, Kelly couldn’t actually believe her drawing was better than Sophia’s. But then she looked at Sophia, who was watching Kelly with an anxious expression.
“I... I couldn’t decide what to do,” Sophia said. “And you’re so good. Sometimes I feel like my stuff is just so bad in comparison.”
Kelly looked to see if Sophia was joking, but she seemed completely serious. Now Kelly was shocked. “I’m not talented… Miss Grace seldom praises me. You’re the best one in our class!”
Sophia raised her eyebrows. “I might be a really good copier of the stuff, but I have no idea what to do when it comes to making up my own images. You are so great at making new things out of the old stuff. I’ve loved your works.”
“I’ve loved yours, too,” Kelly said.
“Well, definitely not this one,” Sophia said.
Kelly smiled. “Maybe not right now. But if you move these lines up...” she said, pointing her finger on Sophia’s paper.
Sophia was quiet for a moment. “That’s a great idea!” she said finally.
Kelly smiled and turned back to her drawing, looking every so often at Sophia’s work to see that she was taking her advice, down to the last line.
24. When Kelly started classes at the art school, she ________.
A. was often pushed by Miss Grace
B. lacked confidence in drawing
C. was not good at the course
D. did not get along with the other kids
25. What did Kelly do in the art class?
A. She praised Sophia’s creativity.
B. She inspired Sophia.
C. She decided to outshine Sophia.
D. She finished the drawing for Sophia.
26. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Interest is the best teacher. B. You are what you believe to be.
C. Everyone has their own strengths. D. Hard work will eventually pay off.
C
Palaces are known for their beauty and splendor, but they offer little protection against attacks. It is easy to defend a large building, but usually these buildings are not designed with the comfort of a king in mind. When it comes to structures that are both beautiful and defensive, the European castle is a big success.
Castles were originally built in England by the Normans in 1066. They built towers and walls to secure the land they had taken. These castles provided the Normans with a quiet and safe place. They also served as bases of operation for attacks. In this way castles served both defensive and offensive roles. Besides, castles served as offices for governors. Those that were socially beneath the governor would come to report affairs and express their respect. They would address problems, handle business, feast, and enjoy festivities in castles. So castles served as social centers as well.
The first castles were made from earth and wood, and they were likely to suffer from attacks by fire. Then wooden castles were gradually replaced by stone, which greatly increased the strength of these towers and walls. However, attackers could throw flaming objects into castles through the windows or burn the wooden doors. This led to moving the windows and entrances off of the ground floor and up to the first floor to make them more difficult to access.
During the Middle Ages, attacks increased in regularity, so castle defenses were updated. Arrow-slits were added. They were small holes in the castle, which allowed defenders to fire without being hurt. Towers were built from which defenders could provide fire on both sides. The towers were connected to the castle by wooden bridges, so that if one tower fell, the rest of the castle was still easy to defend. A lot of rings of castle walls were constructed, so that even if attackers went past one wall, they would be caught on a killing ground between inner and outer walls. All of these increased the defense of castles.
The end of castles can be attributed to gunpowder. During the 15th century, artillery, a kind of large guns, became powerful enough to break through stone walls. This greatly made the role of castles less effective. Though castles no longer serve their original purposes, remaining castles receive millions of visitors each year who wish to experience the situations of ancient times.
27. What was the original function of castles according to the passage?
A. They served as tourist attractions.
B. They were important social centers.
C. They marked religious ceremonies.
D. They were built for use in emergencies.
28. The reason why wooden castles were replaced by stone castles was that .
A. stone castles cost less money
B. stone castles offered better defense
C. wooden castles were uncomfortable
D. wooden castles took a long time to build
29. Which of the following showed an improvement in castle defenses?
A. Castles were totally separated by stones.
B. Arrow-slits were made in large quantities.
C. Rings of walls were built to defend the towers.
D. Windows and entrances were moved to the higher floor.
30. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Fancy Living: Learning about Castles
B. Normans: Bringing Castles to England
C. A History of Castles: The Rise and Fall of Castles
D. Defending Castles: Technologies Used to Defend Castles

Some individuals are born with a gift for public speaking.___31___Do you want to be a good public speaker? Here are some principles you must master.
People want to listen to someone who is interesting, relaxed and comfortable. Too often when you stand up to give a speech, you focus on the “public”at the expense of the “speaking. ” ___32___ Focus on the speaking. Talk directly to your audience, be yourself and make a connection.
Even the most successful public speaker will make mistakes. Yet, the only one who cares about any mistake is the one who is speaking. People’s attention wanders constantly. In fact,most people only absorb about 20 percent of a speaker’s message. So, don’t stop speaking when you make a mistake unless it’s a truly serious one.___33___
Your goal is not to be a perfect public speaker.___34___And like everything else in life, that takes practice. Remember, even world champion athletes practice their skills on a consistent basis.
___35___It’s rare to hear someone say, “I wish that speaker had spoken longer. “On the other hand, you probably can’t count the times that you’ve thought, “I’m glad that talk is over. It seemed to go on forever! “So surprise your audience. Always make your presentation just a bit shorter than anticipated. It’s better to leave your listeners wishing for more than shifting restlessly in their seats waiting for your speech finally to end.
A. Do the opposite.
B. You want to be an effective public speaker.
C. You don’ t need to apologize for a minor slip.
D. When it comes to public speaking, less is usually more.
E. The objective of most speeches is to benefit the audience
F. Take the fear out of public speaking by focusing on your listeners
G. However, the majority of people are effective speakers because they train to be.

第一节(共4小题;第49、50题各2分,第51题3分,第51题5分,共12分)
阅读下面短文,根据题目要求用英文回答问题。
There is a saying, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” Although eating properly is important, being kind to others is also good for your health. Recent studies show that people who do kind acts are more relaxed, happier, and healthier than other people.
In one study at Arizona State University, researchers found that many volunteers experienced a sudden feeling of joy, followed by a long period of calmness, after doing a kind act. This feeling, called “a helper’s high”, may actually help reduce stress as the body produces natural painkillers.
Stress can cause serious health problems. It can lead to high blood pressure and heart disease, and it can also lead to overeating and sleeping problems. However, the study found that volunteers had fewer stress-related health problems when they did helpful things for other people.
The study also found that people who did nice things for others felt better about themselves as well. They had higher self-respect, and were happier. Many believe this is because volunteers spend more of their time with other people. People who are more outgoing are often healthier.
Another study at the University of Michigan’s Survey Research Center confirmed the health benefits of volunteering. A ten-year study of 2,700 men in Michigan showed that people who volunteered lived longer than those who didn’t. Although you shouldn’t need a reason to be helpful, it is nice to know that kindness may help you live longer.
49. According to Paragraph 1, what do recent studies show?
__________________________________________________________
50. According to the passage, what serious health problems can stress cause?
__________________________________________________________
51. Please decide which part is false in the following statement, then underline it and explain why.
>When volunteers did helpful things for other people, they had fewer stress-related health problems, felt better about others and respected others more.
__________________________________________________________
52. Besides the benefits mentioned in this passage, what do you think are some other benefits of volunteering? Why? (In about 40 words)

PERU is a country on the Pacific coast of South America with three main areas: narrow, dry, flat land ____11____ (run) along the coast, the Andes Mountains, and the Amazon rainforest.

【答案】11. running
12. powerful
13. took 14. that
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章对秘鲁做了简要介绍。
【11题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:秘鲁是一个位于南美洲太平洋沿岸的国家,有三个主要地区:沿着海岸的狭窄,干燥,平坦的土地,安第斯山脉和亚马逊雨林。句中is为谓语动词,设空处使用非谓语动词,此处land与run之间是主动关系,故使用现在分词作后置定语。故填running。
【12题详解】
考查形容词。句意:在15世纪和16世纪,秘鲁是强大的古印加帝国的中心。设空处使用power的形容词powerful作定语,意为“强大的”。故填powerful。
【13题详解】
考查动词的时态。句意:西班牙在16世纪控制了秘鲁,一直统治到1821年。设空处使用动词作谓语,根据后文“in the 16th century and ruled until 1821”可知,句子表述过去事实,故使用一般过去时,空格处填入过去式。故填took。
【14题详解】
考查强调句式。句意:正是由于这个原因,西班牙语是秘鲁的主要官方语言。设空处与前文it is构成强调句结构“it is+被强调部分+that+其它”,本句对状语“for the reason”进行强调。故填that。
B
阅读下面短文,根据短文内容填空。在未给提示词的空白处仅填写1个恰当的单词,在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。请在答题卡指定区域作答。
When Michael Jordan’s feet left the ground, time seemed to stand still. The player who became ____15____ (know) as “Air Jordan” changed basketball with his graceful moves and jumps.

Jordan says that the secret ____17____ his success is learning from his failures.
【答案】15. known
16. strength
17. to
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇人物传记。主要介绍了空中飞人乔丹的篮球技巧和体育精神。
【15题详解】
考查非谓语动词。句意:这位被称为“飞人乔丹”的球员用优雅的动作和跳跃改变了篮球。句子含有who引导的定于从句,修饰先行词player,结合player与know之间是被动关系,填入过去分词构成短语become known as“被称为,以……而著称”符合题意。故填known。
【16题详解】
考查名词。句意:乔丹的技术令人印象深刻,但他表现出的心理强度使他与众不同。根据前面的mental,可知应该使用名词形式strength表示“强度、力量”构成名词短语作but之后的句子的主语。故填strength。
【17题详解】
考查介词。句意:乔丹说他成功的秘诀是从失败中学习。固定搭配the secret to... ,意为“……的秘密/诀”,to为介词。故填to。
C
阅读下列短文,根据短文内容填空。在未给提示词的空白处仅填写1个恰当的单词,在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。

【答案】18. satisfied
19. which 20. Although##Though##While
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了张天在乡村支教的事情。
【18题详解】
考查形容词。句意:令他感到满意的是,他的学生在英语学习上取得了很大的进步。分析句子结构可知,空处需用形容词作系动词feel的表语,修饰人,所以此处需用-ed形容词satisfied。故填satisfied。
【19题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:除了教学,他还给村子带来了巨大的变化,包括重建操场和建立图书馆。分析句子结构可知,空处需用关系词引导非限制性定语从句,先行词是changes,指物,关系词在定语从句中作主语,所以空处需用关系代词which引导定语从句。故填which。
【20题详解】
考查让步状语从句。句意:虽然他原本只打算待一年,但现在他觉得准备再待一年。结合空前后句意可知,空处需用although/though/while (虽然,尽管),引导让步状语从句,句首单词首字母需大写。故填Although/Though/While。

Welcoming New Lifestyles
Hygge has been popular in the UK for over a year. It means to create a relaxed and comfortable mood. It can be felt by relaxing activities like chatting with friends. Besides, hygge is also about learning to be happy with simple things. This really resonated (共鸣) with me. I feel stressed at home because my small flat is packed with much stuff. I decide to throw the things that don’t hold memories. Doing this would help me feel hygge.
Last year, lagom, a Swedish word meaning “just the right amount”, became popular. Lagom is about seeking a balance of work and life. It’s also about living more sustainably (可持续地) by saving more energy, creating less waste and recycling more.
Next year, I won’t have to replace things so often. Plus, I keep thinking about recycling and hoping to save as much money as possible. So, I can get on board with lagom.
Coming from Japan, wabi sabi is about finding beauty in imperfection. Wabi refers to the failings in the production process, which makes an object special. Sabi describes the beauty that comes with age. The tradition of wabi sabi can offer a new way to view our homes. I am a perfectionist and I keep my home tidy. But now, my girls put their toys everywhere. So, I have to see the mess and accept the imperfections.
In the Japanese concept, ikigai means “a reason for being”, which can bring satisfaction and meaning to life. Many people believe ikigai can be found at what you are good at and what you love doing. For me, it is blogging. This year I can do more writing tasks that interest me. And if I notice the things that bring me no joy, I can stay away from them in the future. Hopefully, this will help me to lead a more meaningful life.
21. If a person wants to enjoy a simple but happy life, which lifestyle is suitable?
A. Hygge. B. Lagom. C. Wabi sabi. D. Ikigai.
22. To live a lifestyle of wabi sabi, one has to ________.
A. find beauty in his or her imperfect life
B. achieve a balance between work and life
C. be happy and find out the meaning of life
D. throw away the useless and live a simple life

An Art Class
When Kelly was twelve, she started taking classes at Miss Grace’s School for Art. She didn’t like it at first: the “novice artists” — the kids who hadn’t really done art before — worked mostly with clay, and Kelly was a terrible sculptor (雕塑家).
It wasn’t until her third year that Kelly found something she was really good at — charcoal drawing (素描). She loved watching the lines spread unevenly across the page as she moved the bits of charcoal back and forth over the paper.
One day, Sophia, the best artist in her class, sat down and set up her easel (画架) next to Kelly. Kelly felt a sinking feeling in her stomach. She’d actually found an art form that she enjoyed — and was good at — and now Sophia was going to outshine her again? Kelly fought back tears when Miss Grace entered the room.
“Hello class,” Miss Grace said. “We’ll continue to work on the project today.”
What masterpiece would Sophia have come up with?
Kelly looked at Sophia’s easel and she couldn’t believe it — it was a mess! For a brief moment, Kelly couldn’t actually believe her drawing was better than Sophia’s. But then she looked at Sophia, who was watching Kelly with an anxious expression.
“I... I couldn’t decide what to do,” Sophia said. “And you’re so good. Sometimes I feel like my stuff is just so bad in comparison.”
Kelly looked to see if Sophia was joking, but she seemed completely serious. Now Kelly was shocked. “I’m not talented… Miss Grace seldom praises me. You’re the best one in our class!”
Sophia raised her eyebrows. “I might be a really good copier of the stuff, but I have no idea what to do when it comes to making up my own images. You are so great at making new things out of the old stuff. I’ve loved your works.”
“I’ve loved yours, too,” Kelly said.
“Well, definitely not this one,” Sophia said.
Kelly smiled. “Maybe not right now. But if you move these lines up...” she said, pointing her finger on Sophia’s paper.
Sophia was quiet for a moment “That’s a great idea!” she said finally.
Kelly smiled and turned back to her drawing, looking every so often at Sophia’s work to see that she was taking her advice, down to the last line.
24. When Kelly started classes at the art school, she ________.
A. was often pushed by Miss Grace
B. lacked confidence in drawing
C. was not good at the course
D. did not get along with the other kids
25. What did Kelly do in the art class?
A. She praised Sophia’s creativity.
B. She inspired Sophia.
C. She decided to outshine Sophia.
D. She finished the drawing for Sophia.
26. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Interest is the best teacher. B. You are what you believe to be.
C. Everyone has their own strengths. D. Hard work will eventually pay off.
【答案】24. C 25. B 26. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要描述了Kelly在艺术课上成长的过程,并通过与同学Sophia的互动,表达了每个人都有自己独特的才能和优势,互相欣赏与激励。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“When Kelly was twelve, she started taking classes at Miss Grace’s School for Art. She didn’t like it at first: the “novice artists” — the kids who hadn’t really done art before — worked mostly with clay, and Kelly was a terrible sculptor (雕塑家).(Kelly十二岁时,开始在Grace小姐的艺术学校上课。她一开始并不喜欢:那些“新手艺术家”——那些以前没有真正做过艺术的孩子——主要是用粘土创作的,而凯利是个糟糕的雕塑家)”可知,当Kelly开始在艺术学校上课时,她不擅长这门课。故选C。
【25题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第三段“Kelly smiled. “Maybe not right now. But if you move these lines up...” she said, pointing her finger on Sophia’s paper.(Kelly笑了。“也许不是现在。但是如果你把这些线往上移动……她用手指着索菲亚的纸说)”和倒数第二段“Sophia was quiet for a moment. “That’s a great idea!” she said finally.(Sophia沉默了一会儿。“好主意!”她最后说)”可知,Kelly在美术课上启发了Sophia的创造力。故选B。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第六段“Sophia raised her eyebrows. “I might be a really good copier of the stuff, but I have no idea what to do when it comes to making up my own images. You are so great at making new things out of the old stuff. I’ve loved your works.”(Sophia扬起了眉毛。“我可能是一个很好的复制者,但我不知道该怎么做,当涉及到创建我自己的形象。你很擅长从旧事物中创造出新事物。我喜欢你的作品。”)”和倒数第五段““I’ve loved yours, too,” Kelly said.(“我也爱你的,”Kelly说)”并结合文章中两人其它的对话,我们能从文章中了解到:每个人都有自己的长处。故选C。
C
Palaces are known for their beauty and splendor, but they offer little protection against attacks. It is easy to defend a large building, but usually these buildings are not designed with the comfort of a king in mind. When it comes to structures that are both beautiful and defensive, the European castle is a big success.
Castles were originally built in England by the Normans in 1066. They built towers and walls to secure the land they had taken. These castles provided the Normans with a quiet and safe place. They also served as bases of operation for attacks. In this way castles served both defensive and offensive roles. Besides, castles served as offices for governors. Those that were socially beneath the governor would come to report affairs and express their respect. They would address problems, handle business, feast, and enjoy festivities in castles. So castles served as social centers as well.
The first castles were made from earth and wood, and they were likely to suffer from attacks by fire. Then wooden castles were gradually replaced by stone, which greatly increased the strength of these towers and walls. However, attackers could throw flaming objects into castles through the windows or burn the wooden doors. This led to moving the windows and entrances off of the ground floor and up to the first floor to make them more difficult to access.
During the Middle Ages, attacks increased in regularity, so castle defenses were updated. Arrow-slits were added. They were small holes in the castle, which allowed defenders to fire without being hurt. Towers were built from which defenders could provide fire on both sides. The towers were connected to the castle by wooden bridges, so that if one tower fell, the rest of the castle was still easy to defend. A lot of rings of castle walls were constructed, so that even if attackers went past one wall, they would be caught on a killing ground between inner and outer walls. All of these increased the defense of castles.
The end of castles can be attributed to gunpowder. During the 15th century artillery, a kind of large guns, became powerful enough to break through stone walls. This greatly made the role of castles less effective. Though castles no longer serve their original purposes, remaining castles receive millions of visitors each year who wish to experience the situations of ancient times.
27. What was the original function of castles according to the passage?
A. They served as tourist attractions.
B. They were important social centers.
C. They marked religious ceremonies.
D. They were built for use in emergencies.
28. The reason why wooden castles were replaced by stone castles was that .
A. stone castles cost less money
B. stone castles offered better defense
C. wooden castles were uncomfortable
D. wooden castles took a long time to build
29. Which of the following showed an improvement in castle defenses?
A. Castles were totally separated by stones.
B. Arrow-slits were made in large quantities.
C. Rings of walls were built to defend the towers.
D. Windows and entrances were moved to the higher floor.
30. What is the best title of the passage?
A. Fancy Living: Learning about Castles
B. Normans: Bringing Castles to England
C. A History of Castles: The Rise and Fall of Castles
D. Defending Castles: Technologies Used to Defend Castles
【答案】27. B 28. B 29. D 30. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要讲述城堡的历史。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“So castles served as social centers as well.(所以城堡也是社会中心)”可知,城堡最初的功能是它们是重要的社会中心。故选B。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Then wooden castles were gradually replaced by stone, which greatly increased the strength of these towers and walls.(后来,木制城堡逐渐被石头取代,这大大提高了这些塔和墙的强度)”可推知,木头城堡被石头城堡取代的原因是石头城堡提供了更好的防御。故选B。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段“This led to moving the windows and entrances off of the ground floor and up to the first floor to make them more difficult to access.(这导致窗户和入口从一楼移动到一楼,使其更难进入)”可知,窗户和入口被移到较高的楼层显示城堡防御有改进。故选D。
【30题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段最后一句“When it comes to structures that are both beautiful and defensive, the European castle is a big success.(当谈到既美观又防御性的建筑时,欧洲城堡是一个巨大的成功)”再结合最后一段“The end of castles can be attributed to gunpowder(城堡的灭亡可以归因于火药)”可知,本文讲述的是城堡的兴衰。故选C。

Some individuals are born with a gift for public speaking.___31___Do you want to be a good public speaker? Here are some principles you must master.
People want to listen to someone who is interesting, relaxed and comfortable. Too often when you stand up to give a speech, you focus on the “public”at the expense of the “speaking. ” ___32___ Focus on the speaking. Talk directly to your audience, be yourself and make a connection.
Even the most successful public speaker will make mistakes. Yet, the only one who cares about any mistake is the one who is speaking. People’s attention wanders constantly. In fact,most people only absorb about 20 percent of a speaker’s message. So, don’t stop speaking when you make a mistake unless it’s a truly serious one.___33___
Your goal is not to be a perfect public speaker.___34___And like everything else in life, that takes practice. Remember, even world champion athletes practice their skills on a consistent basis.
___35___It’s rare to hear someone say, “I wish that speaker had spoken longer. “On the other hand, you probably can’t count the times that you’ve thought, “I’m glad that talk is over. It seemed to go on forever! “So surprise your audience. Always make your presentation just a bit shorter than anticipated. It’s better to leave your listeners wishing for more than shifting restlessly in their seats waiting for your speech finally to end.
A. Do the opposite.
B. You want to be an effective public speaker.
C. You don’ t need to apologize for a minor slip.
D. When it comes to public speaking, less is usually more.
E. The objective of most speeches is to benefit the audience
F. Take the fear out of public speaking by focusing on your listeners

【34题详解】
本段是说明练习的重要性。上句提到你的目标不是成为一个完美的演说家,下句应该说明目标是什么。B. You want to be an effective public speaker.与上句衔接,是我们演讲的真正目的。故选B。

阅读下面短文,根据题目要求用英文回答问题。
There is a saying, “An apple a day keeps the doctor away.” Although eating properly is important, being kind to others is also good for your health. Recent studies show that people who do kind acts are more relaxed, happier, and healthier than other people.
In one study at Arizona State University, researchers found that many volunteers experienced a sudden feeling of joy, followed by a long period of calmness, after doing a kind act. This feeling, called “a helper’s high”, may actually help reduce stress as the body produces natural painkillers.
Stress can cause serious health problems. It can lead to high blood pressure and heart disease, and it can also lead to overeating and sleeping problems. However, the study found that volunteers had fewer stress-related health problems when they did helpful things for other people.
The study also found that people who did nice things for others felt better about themselves as well. They had higher self-respect, and were happier. Many believe this is because volunteers spend more of their time with other people. People who are more outgoing are often healthier.
Another study at the University of Michigan’s Survey Research Center confirmed the health benefits of volunteering. A ten-year study of 2,700 men in Michigan showed that people who volunteered lived longer than those who didn’t. Although you shouldn’t need a reason to be helpful, it is nice to know that kindness may help you live longer.
49. According to Paragraph 1, what do recent studies show?

52. Besides the benefits mentioned in this passage, what do you think are some other benefits of volunteering? Why? (In about 40 words)
__________________________________________________________
【答案】49. Recent studies show that those who are ready to help others are happier and healthier.
50. Stress can not only lead to/contribute to/cause high blood pressure and heart disease, but it also relates to overeating and sleeping problems.
51. When volunteers did helpful things for other people, they had fewer stress-related health problems, felt better about others and respected others more. Because the study also found that people willing to help others out felt better about themselves and develop higher self-respect.
52. Volunteering builds up your social skills. While volunteering, you can meet people of different personalities. You must constantly adjust and update your social skills to get tasks done. Through these experiences, you can truly understand to how to work with anyone.

Last but not the least, you’d better make the most of your gifts so as to improve and make up for your weaknesses, which as a result will promote your self-confidence.
Hopefully, my advice will be of great benefit to you. Looking forward to your good news.
Yours,
Li Hua
