Here are a few volunteer opportunities that you could encourage your teen to take up. Help a local food bank Food banks always welcome donations and new volunteers. They provide perfect volunteering opportunities for those who are interested in helping the homeless. Your teen would be involved in anything, from preparing meals to working behind the scenes to repack donated food items, serving food, and carrying boxes. Help at a soup kitchen A soup kitchen is one of the places where the hungry can get free or affordable meals (usually soup and bread). Most soup kitchens run mainly on donations and the generosity of people. As a soup kitchen volunteer, your child may be made to clean the tables and plates, help distribute food, cook food, and more. Volunteer for Meals on Wheels By volunteering for Meals on Wheels, your teen will deliver nutritious meals to the elderly or the disabled. It’s perfect for teens who have just received their driving license and love any reason to get behind the wheel! They can make a huge impact in a short amount of time. Similarly, your teen can also volunteer in their kitchen and prepare meals for delivery. With a simple gesture, your teen can bring millions of smiles to people’s lives. Work with Habitat for Humanity Habitat for Humanity’s mission is to build or improve a place that someone could call home. Besides helping the community, your teen will learn valuable skills such as repairing fundraising, painting, and building. You can sign them up for long-term projects or a one-time program. 21. What do a local food bank and a soup kitchen have in common? A. Their sources of food. B. Volunteers need to price the food. C. They provide food for volunteers. D. The locations are approachable. 22. Who would be the most suitable for Meals on Wheels? A. Lucy, who prefers cooking. B. Linda, who likes drawing. C. Jack, who is fond of driving. D. Peter, who is good at playing football 23. Which would you choose if you want to learn some skills? A. A local food bank. B. A soup kitchen. C. Meals on Wheels. D. Habitat for Humanity. 【答案】21. A 22. C 23. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇应用文。文章简要介绍了四项适合青少年参加的志愿者项目。 【21题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一项活动“Food banks always welcome donations and new volunteers. They provide perfect volunteering opportunities for those who are interested in helping the homeless.(食品银行总是欢迎捐款和新的志愿者。他们为那些有兴趣帮助无家可归者的人提供了完美的志愿服务机会)”以及第二项活动“A soup kitchen is one of the places where the hungry can get free or affordable meals (usually soup and bread).Most soup kitchens run primarily on donations and the generosity of people.(施粥处是饥饿的人可以得到免费或负担得起的食物（通常是汤和面包）的地方之一。大多数施粥所主要靠捐款和人们的慷慨来运转)”可知，这两项活动的食物都是来自捐赠，即它们有相似的食物来源。故A项正确。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三项活动的介绍“By volunteering for Meals on Wheels, your teen will deliver nutritious meals to the elderly or the disabled. It’s perfect for teens who have just received their driving license and love any reason to get behind the wheel!(通过“送餐上门”的志愿活动，你的孩子将为老人或残疾人提供有营养的饭菜。这对刚刚收到他们的驾驶执照和喜欢任何理由坐在方向盘后面的青少年是完美的！）”可知，Meals on Wheels这一项目主要是给老人和残疾人送餐，所以会开车是一个很大的优势。因此喜欢开车的Jack最适合Meals on Wheels。故C项正确。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四项活动的介绍“Habitat for Humanity’s mission is to build or improve a place that someone could call home. Besides helping the community, your teen will learn valuable skills such as repairing, fundraising, painting, and building.(Habitat for Humanity的使命是建造或改善一个人们可以称之为家的地方。除了帮助社区，你的孩子还会学到有价值的技能，比如修理、筹款、绘画和建筑）”可知，在Habitat for Humanity这项活动中，青少年可以学到多种技能。故D项正确。 B When I learned that my 71-year-old mother was playing Scrabble—a word game—against herself, I knew I had to do something. My husband suggested we give her a computer to play against. I wasn’t sure my mother was ready for it. After all, it had taken 15 years to persuade her to buy an electric cooker. Even so, we packed up our old computer and delivered it to my parents’ home. And so began my mother’s adventure in the world of computers. It also marked the beginning of an unusual teaching task for me. I’d taught people of all ages, but I never thought I would be teaching my mother how to do anything. She had been the one teaching me all my life: to cook and sew, to enjoy the good times and put up with the bad. Now it was my turn to give something back. It wasn’t easy at the beginning. There was so much to explain and to introduce. Slowly but surely, my mother caught on, making notes in a little notebook. After a few months of Scrabble and other games, I decided it was time to introduce her to word processing. This proved to be a bigger challenge to her, so I gave her some homework. I asked her to write me a letter, using different letter types, colors and spaces. “Are you this demanding with your kindergarten pupils?” she asked. “No, of course not,” I said. “They already know how to use a computer.” My mother isn’t the only one experiencing a fast personal growth period. Thanks to the computer, my father has finally got over his phone allergy. For as long as I can remember, any time I called, my mother would answer. Dad and I have had more phone conversations in the last two months than we’ve had in the past 20 years. 24. Why did the author decide to give her mother a computer? A. To help her through the bad times. B. To make her life more enjoyable. C. To support her in doing her homework. D. To let her have more chances to write letters. 25. What does the author do according to the text? A. She is a teacher. B. She is a cook. C. She is a housewife. D. She is a computer engineer. 26. Why did the author ask her mother to write her a letter? A. To keep in touch with her mother. B. To free her mother from heavy housework. C. To practice what her mother had learned. D. To prevent her mother from using the telephone. 27. What happened to the author’s father after the computer was brought home? A. He played even more games. B. He became skilled at it. C. He lost interest in cooking. D. He took more phone calls. 【答案】24. B 25. A 26. C 27. D 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一个家庭生活故事。作者知道妈妈在家玩拼字游戏时，决定给妈妈一台电脑，来使每天的生活更有趣。作者教妈妈使用电脑，这不是一件容易的事情。家里有了电脑之后，接电话的活儿就落到哪里爸爸身上。 【24题详解】 推理判断题。根据文章第一段“When I learned that my 71-year-old mother was playing Scrabble—a word game—against herself, I knew I had to do something. My husband suggested we give her a computer to play against.(当我得知71岁的母亲正在和自己玩拼字游戏时，我知道我必须做点什么。我丈夫建议我们给她一台电脑玩。)” 可知，作者的母亲生活比较单调和无趣，作者通过教母亲使用电脑让她的生活更丰富。故选B。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第二段“I’d taught people of all ages, but I never thought I would be teaching my mother how to do anything. (我教过各个年龄段的人，但我从没想过我会教我母亲如何做任何事情。)” 可知，作者是个教师。故选A。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第四段“This proved to be a bigger challenge to her, so I gave her some homework. I asked her to write me a letter, using different letter types, colors and spaces. (这对她来说是一个更大的挑战，所以我给了她一些家庭作业。我让她给我写一封信，用不同的字母类型，颜色和空间。)” 可知，作者让母亲使用电脑写信，进行文字处理，去练习所学到的东西。故选C。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“Thanks to the computer, my father has finally got over his phone allergy. For as long as I can remember, any time I called, my mother would answer. Dad and I have had more phone conversations in the last two months than we’ve had in the past 20 years. (多亏了电脑，我父亲终于克服了电话过敏。在我的记忆中，任何时候我打电话给妈妈，妈妈都会接。在过去的两个月里，爸爸和我的电话交谈比我们过去20年里的还要多。)” 可知，有了电脑后，作者的父亲更多机会接女儿的电话了。故选D。 C Livestreaming (直播) through channels such as Amazon Live and QVC is an increasingly popular way to sell goods online. It usually lasts between 5 and 10 minutes, and someone promotes a product. Viewers can then readily buy it by clicking on a link. We analyzed (分析) 99,451 sales cases on a livestream selling platform and matched them with actual sales cases. In terms of time, that is equal to over 2 million 30-second television advertisements. To determine the emotional (情绪的) expression of the salesperson, we used two deep learning models: a face model and an emotion model. The face model discovers the presence or absence of a face in a frame of a video stream. The emotion model then determines the probability that a face is exhibiting any of the six basic human emotions: happiness, sadness, surprise, anger, fear or disgust. For example, smiling signals a high probability of happiness, while an off-putting expression usually points toward anger. We wanted to see the effect of emotions expressed at different times in the sales cases so we counted probabilities for each emotion for all 62 million frames in our database. We then combined these probabilities with other possible aspects that might drive sales — such as price and product characteristics — to judge the effect of emotion. We found that, perhaps unsurprisingly, when salespeople show more negative emotions — such as anger and disgust — the volume of sales went down. But we also found that a similar thing happened when the salespeople show high levels of positive emotions, such as happiness or surprise. A likely explanation, based on our research, is that smiling can be disgusting because it lacks true feelings and can reduce trust in the seller. A seller’s happiness may be taken as a sign that the seller is gaining interests at the customer’s expense. 28. What can we know about the livestreaming to sell goods online? A. It challenges the physical economy. B. It helps big company sell all goods. C. It is very convenient for the buyers. D. It helps the sellers develop fixed expressions. 29. What does the underlined word “off-putting” mean in paragraph 3? A. Unhappy. B. Awkward. C. Surprised. D. Frightened. 30. How do customers feel about the seller’s smiling? A. They feel thankful. B. They feel delighted. C. They feel cheated. D. They feel so tired. 31. Which of the following could be the best title for the text? A. Livestreamers Sell Products Successfully B. Smiling Can Increase the Sales in Reality C. Emotions and Faces: What’s the Difference D. Expressions Affect Selling Products Online 【答案】28. C 29. A 30. C 31. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是说一篇明文。文章介绍了网络售货时，主播面部表情对网络销售效果的影响。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段的“Viewers can then readily buy it by clicking on a link.(观众可以通过点击链接来购买)”可知，观众可以通过点击链接来购买东西，即网络购物对于消费者而言很方便。故选C项。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第三段“For example, smiling signals a high probability of happiness(例如，微笑表示幸福的可能性很高)”以及while可知，本句中while为连词，意为“然而”，表示前后两种情况的对比，由后文anger可知，微笑表示幸福，而不高兴的表情通常指向愤怒，所以划线单词为“不高兴的”。故选A项。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“We found that, perhaps unsurprisingly, when salespeople show more negative emotions — such as anger and disgust — the volume of sales went down. But we also found that a similar thing happened when the salespeople show high levels of positive emotions, such as happiness or surprise.(我们发现，当销售人员传达更多的负面情绪时——比如愤怒和厌恶——销售额就会下降，这也许并不令人意外。但我们也发现，当销售人员表现出高水平的积极情绪时，比如高兴或惊讶，也会发生类似的事情)”和第六段“A likely explanation, based on our research, is that smiling can be disgusting because it lacks true feelings and can reduce trust in the seller. A seller’s happiness may be taken as a sign that the seller is gaining interests at the customer’s expense.(根据我们的研究，一个可能的解释是，微笑可能很恶心，因为它缺乏真实的感觉，会降低对卖家的信任。销售者的快乐可能被认为是一种迹象，表明销售者正在以顾客的损失为代价获取利益)”可推断，消费者不喜欢卖家在直播中微笑是因为他们觉得被骗了。故选C项。 【31题详解】 主旨大意题。根据第五段“We found that, perhaps unsurprisingly, when salespeople show more negative emotions — such as anger and disgust — the volume of sales went down. But we also found that a similar thing happened when the salespeople show high levels of positive emotions, such as happiness or surprise.(我们发现，当销售人员传达更多的负面情绪时——比如愤怒和厌恶——销售额就会下降，这也许并不令人意外。但我们也发现，当销售人员表现出高水平的积极情绪时，比如高兴或惊讶，也会发生类似的事情)”及全文可知，文章主要介绍了网络售货时，主播面部表情对网络销售效果的影响。所以“Expressions Affect Selling Products Online (表情影响网上销售)”作为文章标题最为合适。故选D项。 D Finding the Real You Psychometric testing — personality testing — has been very popular nowadays as studies show their results to be three times more accurate in predicting your job performance. These tests are now included in almost all graduate recruitment (招聘) and are widely used in the selection of managers. The most popular of these personality tests is the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). It is based on the theory that we are born with a tendency to one personality type which stays more or less fixed throughout life. You answer 88 questions and are then given your “type”, such as Outgoing or Quiet, Feeling or Thinking. Critics of personality testing raise doubts about “social engineering”. Psychologist Dr. Colin Gill warns that the “popular” personality traits (特性) have their disadvantages. “People who are extremely open to new experiences can be butterflies, going from one idea to the next without mastering any of them.” However, the psychometric test is here to stay, which may be why a whole sub-industry on cheating personality tests has sprung up. “It’s possible to cheat,” admits Gill, “but having to pretend to be the person you are at work will be tiring and unhappy and probably short-lived.” So can we change our personality? “Your basic personality is fixed by the time you’re 21,” says Gill, “but it can be affected by motivation and intelligence. If you didn’t have the personality type to be a doctor but desperately wanted to be one and were intelligent enough to master the skills, you could still go ahead. But trying to go too much against type for too long requires much energy and is actually to be suffered for long. I think it’s why we’re seeing this trend for downshifting — too many people trying to fit in to a type that they aren’t really suited for.” Our interest in personality now exists in every part of our lives. If you ask an expert for advice on anything, you’ll probably be quizzed about your personality. But if personality tests have any value to us, perhaps it is to free us from the idea that all of us are full of potential, and remind us of what we are. As they say in one test when they ask for your age: pick the one you are, not the one you wish you were. 32. The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is based on the belief that ______. A. certain personality traits are common. B. personality is largely decided from birth. C. some personality types are better than others. D. personality traits are various from time to time. 33. According to Dr. Gill, what is the problem with personality tests? A. Employers often find the results unclear. B. They may have a negative effect on takers. C. People can easily lie about their true abilities. D. The results could be opposite to what employers want. 34. In Dr. Gill’s view, how easy is it to change your personality? A. It’s impossible in your childhood. B. It’s easy if you have great motivation. C. It’s difficult before the age of 21. D. It’s unlikely because it requires much energy. 35. What final conclusion does the author reach about the value of personality tests? A. They are not really worth doing. B. They may encourage greater realism. C. They are of doubtful value to employers. D. They can strengthen the idea we have of our abilities. 【答案】32. B 33. C 34. D 35. B 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍人格测试现在很受欢迎，尤其是毕业生招聘时，最普遍的测试是MBTI，文章对此提出质疑，并解释了原因。 【32题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“The most popular of these personality tests is the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). It is based on the theory that we are born with a tendency to one personality type which stays more or less fixed throughout life. (这些性格测试中最流行的是迈尔斯-布里格斯类型指标(MBTI)。它基于这样一种理论：我们生来就有一种人格类型的倾向，这种倾向在一生中或多或少地保持不变)”可知，迈尔斯-布里格斯类型指标(MBTI)的理论是我们生来就有一种人格类型的倾向，也就是性格很大程度上是由出生决定的。故选B。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据第三段“However, the psychometric test is here to stay, which may be why a whole sub-industry on cheating personality tests has sprung up. “It’s possible to cheat,” admits Gill, “but having to pretend to be the person you are at work will be tiring and unhappy and probably short-lived.” (然而，心理测试将继续存在，这可能就是为什么作弊人格测试的整个子行业如雨后春笋般涌现的原因。“作弊是有可能的，”吉尔承认，“但在工作中不得不假装自己是真实的自己，这会让人感到疲惫、不开心，而且很可能活不久。”)”可知，吉尔医生说作弊人格测试的整个子行业如雨后春笋般涌现，可推知性格测试中人们很容易对自己的真实能力撒谎。故选C。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据第四段“So can we change our personality? “Your basic personality is fixed by the time you’re 21,” says Gill, “but it can be affected by motivation and intelligence. If you didn’t have the personality type to be a doctor but desperately wanted to be one and were intelligent enough to master the skills, you could still go ahead. But trying to go too much against type for too long requires much energy and is actually to be suffered for long. (那么我们能改变我们的性格吗？“在你21岁的时候，你的基本性格就固定了，”吉尔说，“但它会受到动机和智力的影响。如果你没有成为一名医生的性格类型，但非常想成为一名医生，并且足够聪明，可以掌握相关技能，你仍然可以继续前进。但是，长时间地与类型背道而驰需要耗费大量精力，而且实际上会让人长期受苦)”可知，吉尔医生认为在你21岁的时候，你的基本性格就固定了，所以想要改变需要耗费大量精力，所以在吉尔博士看来，改变性格不太可能，因为它需要很多精力，故选D。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据最后一段“But if personality tests have any value to us, perhaps it is to free us from the idea that all of us are full of potential, and remind us of what we are. As they say in one test when they ask for your age: pick the one you are, not the one you wish you were.(但如果人格测试对我们有任何价值的话，也许就是让我们摆脱“我们都充满潜力”的想法，并提醒我们自己是谁。就像他们在一次测试中问你的年龄时所说的那样：选择你真实的年龄，而不是你希望成为的年龄)”可知人格测试也希望你给出真实的情况，所以是鼓励更大的现实主义，故选B。 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。 Nowadays, more and more people like going on trips in the holidays.

(但最后，你应该关心的最重要的事情是安全！)对上文进行补充说明，符合语境。故选G。 第三部分 语言运用（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分） 阅读下面短文， 从短文后各题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可填入空白处的最佳选项。 I was having a hard time trying to find work.

It felt as though my soul departed my body and I had no control over it. Anxiously, I looked through the roster (名单) posted on the wall of the locker room. My heart was beating harder and harder as I slowly saw all my friends' names on that list but could not find mine. At that moment, I froze. I just could not accept that all my friends were on the basketball team while I was not. I was so convinced there was a mistake that I went and found the coach. “Hey, coach, are you sure that the roster you posted is correct?” I asked anxiously, dreading (担心) his answer. “Yes, the names on the list are finalized. Sorry if you did not make it this year, there is always next year,” the coach replied. I could feel the hot, bitter tears filling my eyes, and I ran out of the room as fast as I could. Trying to forget about the situation, I headed over to the cafeteria to buy some food. I felt dead inside, like nothing mattered. Walking was such a burden that it felt as if I had a 100-pound weight tied to my backpack. My mind was also blank for the rest of the school day. Everything my teachers said went in one ear and out the other. After school, as I walked to the parking lot to get picked up, I saw all my friends gathered near the back of the lot, celebrating and joking around. I detoured (绕道) around the side of the school to avoid them, trying not to think about being the only one in our friend group failing to make the team. I saw my father's red car pull up near the school lot. I walked up to the car and got in. He smiled at me, turned on the radio, and started driving home. And soon he noticed my gloomy face, and asked me what was wrong. “Nothing. Well, it's just that all my friends made the school team. Everyone! Except me...” I stammered (口吃). “Well, what are you going to do about it? Are you just going to sit there and wait?” he asked. Surprised, I didn't know what to say. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I just shook my head and went into my room. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After almost a year of practicing and training, I tried out for the team again. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】I just shook my head and went into my room. I thought hard and realized that nobody was going to give me a place on that team. I would have to earn it. Having decided to work toward my goal of making the team, I biked to the gym near my school every day after school and trained for two hours. There were moments when I didn't think I could keep on going, but I powered through it. After almost a year of practicing and training, I tried out for the team again. “Believe in yourself,” I said to myself. “Hard work pays off.” After the tryout, I felt confident and congratulated myself. Regardless of the outcome, I knew that I had worked hard and learned something about mental toughness. The next day, I found out I made the team. Seeing my name printed in large bold letters, I felt as though all my dreams came true. The greater the effort, the sweeter the reward, and by making the team, I had officially made a turnaround. 【解析】 【导语】本文以作者参加学校球队的选拔经历为线索展开。第一年，作者成了所有的朋友中唯一一个没被选入球队的，作者感到非常伤心，见到朋友都要躲着走。回到家后，作者下定决心要为自己争取机会。每天放学后，作者都要骑车到健身房训练两个小时。经过一年的训练后，作者再次参加球队的选拔，这次他终于成功了。 【详解】1.段落续写： ①由第一段首句内容“我只是摇了摇头，走进我的房间。”可知，第一段可描写作者进入房间后的心理活动，描写他如何下决心为自己争取机会。再由第二段首句内容中衔接第一段和第二段的内容“经过近一年的练习和训练”可知，第一段还要描写作者是如何进行训练的。 ②由第二段首句内容“经过将近一年的练习和训练，我再次参加了球队的选拔。”可知，第二段可描写作者再次参加球队选拔的情况以及被选上以后的心理感受。 2.续写线索：未被球队选上——沮丧难过——决心为自己争取机会——努力训练——再次参加选拔并取得成功——感悟 3.词汇激活 行为类 1.骑车：bike/cycle/ride 2.继续做：keep on doing/go on doing/continue doing 3.决定做某事：decide to do sth/determine to do sth 情绪类 1.相信自己：believe in yourself/trust yourself/have faith in yourself 2.确信的：confident/assured/convinced 【点睛】 [高分句型1] Having decided to work toward my goal of making the team, I biked to the gym near my school every day after school and trained for two hours. （运用了having done的非谓语形式作状语） [高分句型2] Seeing my name printed in large bold letters, I felt as though all my dreams came true.（运用了现在分词作状语和as though引导的表语从句） [高分句型3] The greater the effort, the sweeter the reward, and by making the team, I had officially made a turnaround.（the+比较级，the+比较级表示：越……，越……） 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$ 大余县梅关中学2024—2025学年度高一上学期第二次月考 英语试卷 （试卷满分：150分，考试时间：120分钟） 第一部分 听力（共两节，满分30分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 第一节（共5小题；每小题1.5分，满分7.5分） 听下面5段对话。每段对话后有一个小题，从题中所给的A、B、C三个选项中选出最佳选项。听完每段对话后，你都有10秒钟的时间来回答有关小题和阅读下一小题。每段对话仅读一遍。 例：How much is the shirt?

Help a local food bank Food banks always welcome donations and new volunteers. They provide perfect volunteering opportunities for those who are interested in helping the homeless. Your teen would be involved in anything, from preparing meals to working behind the scenes to repack donated food items, serving food, and carrying boxes. Help at a soup kitchen A soup kitchen is one of the places where the hungry can get free or affordable meals (usually soup and bread). Most soup kitchens run mainly on donations and the generosity of people. As a soup kitchen volunteer, your child may be made to clean the tables and plates, help distribute food, cook food, and more. Volunteer for Meals on Wheels By volunteering for Meals on Wheels, your teen will deliver nutritious meals to the elderly or the disabled. It’s perfect for teens who have just received their driving license and love any reason to get behind the wheel! They can make a huge impact in a short amount of time. Similarly, your teen can also volunteer in their kitchen and prepare meals for delivery. With a simple gesture, your teen can bring millions of smiles to people’s lives. Work with Habitat for Humanity Habitat for Humanity’s mission is to build or improve a place that someone could call home. Besides helping the community, your teen will learn valuable skills such as repairing fundraising, painting, and building. You can sign them up for long-term projects or a one-time program. 21. What do a local food bank and a soup kitchen have in common? A. Their sources of food. B. Volunteers need to price the food. C. They provide food for volunteers. D. The locations are approachable. 22. Who would be the most suitable for Meals on Wheels? A. Lucy, who prefers cooking. B. Linda, who likes drawing. C. Jack, who is fond of driving. D. Peter, who is good at playing football 23. Which would you choose if you want to learn some skills? A A local food bank. B. A soup kitchen. C. Meals on Wheels. D. Habitat for Humanity. B When I learned that my 71-year-old mother was playing Scrabble—a word game—against herself, I knew I had to do something. My husband suggested we give her a computer to play against. I wasn’t sure my mother was ready for it. After all, it had taken 15 years to persuade her to buy an electric cooker. Even so, we packed up our old computer and delivered it to my parents’ home. And so began my mother’s adventure in the world of computers. It also marked the beginning of an unusual teaching task for me. I’d taught people of all ages, but I never thought I would be teaching my mother how to do anything. She had been the one teaching me all my life: to cook and sew, to enjoy the good times and put up with the bad. Now it was my turn to give something back. It wasn’t easy at the beginning. There was so much to explain and to introduce. Slowly but surely, my mother caught on, making notes in a little notebook. After a few months of Scrabble and other games, I decided it was time to introduce her to word processing. This proved to be a bigger challenge to her, so I gave her some homework. I asked her to write me a letter, using different letter types, colors and spaces. “Are you this demanding with your kindergarten pupils?” she asked. “No, of course not,” I said. “They already know how to use a computer.” My mother isn’t the only one experiencing a fast personal growth period. Thanks to the computer, my father has finally got over his phone allergy. For as long as I can remember, any time I called, my mother would answer. Dad and I have had more phone conversations in the last two months than we’ve had in the past 20 years. 24. Why did the author decide to give her mother a computer? A. To help her through the bad times. B. To make her life more enjoyable. C. To support her in doing her homework. D. To let her have more chances to write letters. 25. What does the author do according to the text? A. She is a teacher. B. She is a cook. C. She is a housewife. D. She is a computer engineer. 26. Why did the author ask her mother to write her a letter? A. To keep in touch with her mother. B. To free her mother from heavy housework. C. To practice what her mother had learned. D. To prevent her mother from using the telephone. 27. What happened to the author’s father after the computer was brought home? A. He played even more games. B. He became skilled at it. C. He lost interest in cooking. D. He took more phone calls. C Livestreaming (直播) through channels such as Amazon Live and QVC is an increasingly popular way to sell goods online. It usually lasts between 5 and 10 minutes, and someone promotes a product. Viewers can then readily buy it by clicking on a link. We analyzed (分析) 99,451 sales cases on a livestream selling platform and matched them with actual sales cases. In terms of time, that is equal to over 2 million 30-second television advertisements. To determine the emotional (情绪的) expression of the salesperson, we used two deep learning models: a face model and an emotion model. The face model discovers the presence or absence of a face in a frame of a video stream. The emotion model then determines the probability that a face is exhibiting any of the six basic human emotions: happiness, sadness, surprise, anger, fear or disgust. For example, smiling signals a high probability of happiness, while an off-putting expression usually points toward anger. We wanted to see the effect of emotions expressed at different times in the sales cases so we counted probabilities for each emotion for all 62 million frames in our database. We then combined these probabilities with other possible aspects that might drive sales — such as price and product characteristics — to judge the effect of emotion. We found that, perhaps unsurprisingly, when salespeople show more negative emotions — such as anger and disgust — the volume of sales went down. But we also found that a similar thing happened when the salespeople show high levels of positive emotions, such as happiness or surprise. A likely explanation, based on our research, is that smiling can be disgusting because it lacks true feelings and can reduce trust in the seller. A seller’s happiness may be taken as a sign that the seller is gaining interests at the customer’s expense. 28. What can we know about the livestreaming to sell goods online? A. It challenges the physical economy. B. It helps big company sell all goods. C. It is very convenient for the buyers. D. It helps the sellers develop fixed expressions. 29. What does the underlined word “off-putting” mean in paragraph 3? A. Unhappy. B. Awkward. C. Surprised. D. Frightened. 30. How do customers feel about the seller’s smiling? A. They feel thankful. B. They feel delighted. C. They feel cheated. D. They feel so tired. 31. Which of the following could be the best title for the text? A. Livestreamers Sell Products Successfully B. Smiling Can Increase the Sales in Reality C. Emotions and Faces: What’s the Difference D. Expressions Affect Selling Products Online D Finding the Real You Psychometric testing — personality testing — has been very popular nowadays as studies show their results to be three times more accurate in predicting your job performance. These tests are now included in almost all graduate recruitment (招聘) and are widely used in the selection of managers. The most popular of these personality tests is the Myers-Briggs Type Indicator (MBTI). It is based on the theory that we are born with a tendency to one personality type which stays more or less fixed throughout life. You answer 88 questions and are then given your “type”, such as Outgoing or Quiet, Feeling or Thinking. Critics of personality testing raise doubts about “social engineering”. Psychologist Dr. Colin Gill warns that the “popular” personality traits (特性) have their disadvantages. “People who are extremely open to new experiences can be butterflies, going from one idea to the next without mastering any of them.” However, the psychometric test is here to stay, which may be why a whole sub-industry on cheating personality tests has sprung up. “It’s possible to cheat,” admits Gill, “but having to pretend to be the person you are at work will be tiring and unhappy and probably short-lived.” So can we change our personality? “Your basic personality is fixed by the time you’re 21,” says Gill, “but it can be affected by motivation and intelligence. If you didn’t have the personality type to be a doctor but desperately wanted to be one and were intelligent enough to master the skills, you could still go ahead. But trying to go too much against type for too long requires much energy and is actually to be suffered for long. I think it’s why we’re seeing this trend for downshifting — too many people trying to fit in to a type that they aren’t really suited for.” Our interest in personality now exists in every part of our lives. If you ask an expert for advice on anything, you’ll probably be quizzed about your personality. But if personality tests have any value to us, perhaps it is to free us from the idea that all of us are full of potential, and remind us of what we are. As they say in one test when they ask for your age: pick the one you are, not the one you wish you were. 32. The Myers-Briggs Type Indicator is based on the belief that ______. A. certain personality traits are common. B. personality is largely decided from birth. C. some personality types are better than others. D. personality traits are various from time to time. 33. According to Dr. Gill, what is the problem with personality tests? A. Employers often find the results unclear. B. They may have a negative effect on takers. C. People can easily lie about their true abilities. D. The results could be opposite to what employers want. 34. In Dr. Gill’s view, how easy is it to change your personality? A. It’s impossible in your childhood. B. It’s easy if you have great motivation. C. It’s difficult before the age of 21. D. It’s unlikely because it requires much energy. 35. What final conclusion does the author reach about the value of personality tests? A. They are not really worth doing. B. They may encourage greater realism. C. They are of doubtful value to employers. D. They can strengthen the idea we have of our abilities. 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。 Nowadays, more and more people like going on trips in the holidays.

It felt as though my soul departed my body and I had no control over it. Anxiously, I looked through the roster (名单) posted on the wall of the locker room. My heart was beating harder and harder as I slowly saw all my friends' names on that list but could not find mine. At that moment, I froze. I just could not accept that all my friends were on the basketball team while I was not. I was so convinced there was a mistake that I went and found the coach. “Hey, coach, are you sure that the roster you posted is correct?” I asked anxiously, dreading (担心) his answer. “Yes, the names on the list are finalized. Sorry if you did not make it this year, there is always next year,” the coach replied. I could feel the hot, bitter tears filling my eyes, and I ran out of the room as fast as I could. Trying to forget about the situation, I headed over to the cafeteria to buy some food. I felt dead inside, like nothing mattered. Walking was such a burden that it felt as if I had a 100-pound weight tied to my backpack. My mind was also blank for the rest of the school day. Everything my teachers said went in one ear and out the other. After school, as I walked to the parking lot to get picked up, I saw all my friends gathered near the back of the lot, celebrating and joking around. I detoured (绕道) around the side of the school to avoid them, trying not to think about being the only one in our friend group failing to make the team. I saw my father's red car pull up near the school lot. I walked up to the car and got in. He smiled at me, turned on the radio, and started driving home. And soon he noticed my gloomy face, and asked me what was wrong. “Nothing. Well, it's just that all my friends made the school team. Everyone! Except me...” I stammered (口吃). “Well, what are you going to do about it? Are you just going to sit there and wait?” he asked. Surprised, I didn't know what to say. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。 I just shook my head and went into my room. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ After almost a year of practicing and training, I tried out for the team again. ______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $$
