Many animals died because of the cold weather. The porcupines (豪猪) faced the problem as well. But these clever porcupines had an idea. They decided to huddle (蜷缩) together to stay warm. It seemed like a good idea to make it through the cold winter. But there was a problem—their pointy quills (尖尖的刺) started hurting their closest friends! After some time, the porcupines couldn’t stand it any longer. They decided to leave some room around themselves. However, as they moved away from each other, the cold air came in, and some of them started to get ill and die. Now they faced a difficult choice—either put up with the quills or face death. After careful thinking, the porcupines decided to go back to huddle together. They found out that living with pain from their close friends was a small price to pay for the warmth of being together. And so, the porcupines learned an important lesson: Sometimes, a little discomfort in relationships is not a big problem if it means staying warm and living through the cold. From that day on, they happily stuck together, quills and all, living a warm and long life. 16. What does the underlined word “it” refer to? A. Coming close together. B. Staying inside together. C. Going through the winter. 17. What made the porcupines uncomfortable while staying close together? A. The cold air was gone and they felt hot. B. There was no fresh air and they became ill. C. Their pointy quills hurt their closest friends. 18. What happened after the porcupines left room for each other? A. The cold air came in and made them ill. B. They didn’t put up with pain any longer. C. They happily lived a warm and long winter. 19. Which choice did the porcupines make in the end? A. They would move the quills away. B. They would stay with other animals. C. They would stand the pain for warmth. 20. What lesson does the story teach us? A It’s important to leave room for close friends. B. It’s wise to choose the lesser of two bad ones. C. It’s the worst to live together with discomfort. B What do coaches look for in basketball players? It is important to be tall, strong and fast. But that is not enough. A new study says coaches care more about what’s in a player’s head. Michael Rogers works at the University of South Australia. For the new study, he surveyed 90 coaches from 23 countries. They coached college and international basketball players, both men and women. Rogers asked what they looked for in players. The coaches listed 35 important skills. Some were physical, such as speed. Others were mental (精神的), such as confidence. According to them, the mental ones were at the top of the list. Competitiveness, team spirit and outlook (见解) were the top three. Only one physical skill made the top ten. That is agility—the ability to move quickly and easily. This doesn’t mean physical skills aren’t important. But they are not enough. To do well at the top level, you need the right mindset (观念模式). “Coaches want players who are easy to teach and work hard.” said Rogers. According to Timothy Baghurst, a teacher at Florida State University in the US, few players are taught mental skills. Most coaches don’t teach communication skills. They also don’t teach how to control feelings. But these skills are important for players. Grant Tomkinson helped with the study. He thinks it goes beyond (超出) sports. It teaches life lessons. It shows us that it is important to pay attention to mental skills. “The mental skills can lead to success in all areas of life.” he said. 21. How does the writer start the passage? A. By giving an example. B. By asking a question. C. By offering some advice. 22. What can we learn from Paragraphs 2 and 3? ①Who did the study. ②The value of the study. ③The result of the study. ④How the study was done. A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ①③④ 23. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. The coaches. B. The physical skills. C. The mental skills. 24. Which of the following may Timothy Baghurst agree with? A. It can be hard to develop mental skills. B. Basketball players should be taught mental skills. C. Basketball coaches should teach players life lessons. 25. What is the purpose of the passage? A. To discuss a problem. B. To introduce a study. C. To collect some opinions. C “Music is where everything started,” Samirah Horton says. The 13-year-old from Brooklyn, New York, is known to the world as DJ Annie Red. She has been rapping (说唱) and performing since she was 6 years old. Through music, DJ Annie Red says, “I can express myself. I can let out my emotion (情绪).” The rising hip-hop star uses music to share a message about bullying (欺凌). “I was bullied a lot,” she says. “I am still bullied now, especially because of my voice.” DJ Annie Red has a deep, raspy (嘶哑) voice. People have told her she sounds like a boy. But DJ Annie Red has found a way to rise above their insults. Instead of thinking of her voice as a weakness, she uses it to spread her anti-bullying message far and wide. She encourages kids of all ages, everywhere, to stand up to bullying. “You’re never too young to make a change.” she says. DJ Annie Red performs at events, festivals and games and posts her music online. She also performs at schools to teach students how to fight against bullying. She wants to help kids who are suffering from bullying feel like they’re not alone. DJ Annie Red believes that _________. That’s partly because people can bully others on social media while hiding behind a username. “You don’t have to show your face at all,” she says. “Someone could easily be influenced by that.” But she sees a brighter future ahead. DJ Annie Red believes that kids of her generation can make things better by finding their passions (爱好) and using those passions to make changes, as she has. “That’s something I really enjoy seeing,” she says. “Kids are getting more confident in themselves and want to do something that they really enjoy doing. That encourages me to keep doing what I do.” 26. Why is DJ Annie Red bullied according to the passage? A. Because she has no friends. B. Because she looks like a boy. C. Because she has a special voice. 27. What does the underlined word “insults” mean in Chinese? A. 侮辱 B. 谴责 C. 误解 28. Which can be put in the “______” in Paragraph 5? A. fighting against bullying is easier than ever B everyone should refuse to give in to bullying C. fighting against bullying is more important than ever 29. We can we infer (推断) from the passage? A. DJ Annie Red is worried about her future. B. DJ Annie Red will continue fighting against bullying. C. DJ Annie Red will help more kids find their passions. 30. What is the best title for the passage? A. Meet DJ Annie Red B. DJ Annie Red’s success C. The influence of rap music D 阅读短文，将句子还原到文章当中使短文内容完整。有一项为多余选项。 If you don’t visit the Potala Palace during your trip to Tibet in Southwest China, you will regret it. ____31____ It is the highest palace in the world and its highest point reaches 3,750 meters above sea level.

Recently, we have had a discussion on the advantages and disadvantages of keeping dogs. Different people have different points of view. Some people agree with the idea. First, dogs can guard their yards and protect them. Second, dogs can accompany the old and keep them from feeling lonely. What’s more, they can help develop a sense of responsibility. However, other people are in disagreement. For one thing, dogs are not easy to take care of. For another, they pollute the environment and bring some diseases. Moreover, some dogs even bite people, being a threat to people’s health. From my point of view, I think we can keep dogs, because they are our friends and bring us a lot of fun. But at the same time, we should teach them how to behave properly on streets and have them checked regularly to prevent any diseases. 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
