After making a few mistakes during a weekend match, she couldn’t stop blaming herself. “I’m in the best condition, and I practice hard. How is this happening?” she asked. Many students, like this girl, have a sense that the nights in the library and the hours on the field should lead them to success. When they win, they feel powerful and smart. When they fail, they always can’t help thinking “It must be all my fault.” It’s common to see some young adults have difficulty in facing failure. Most people believe that’s because, they were well protected by their parents throughout their childhood. But there is something else at play: a wrong promise that they can achieve anything if they are willing to work on it. However, they sometimes fail although they try their best. Psychologist Suniya Luthar believes some teens push themselves toward impossible goals. The fact is that you can do everything in your power and still fail. Instead of beating yourselves up when things don’t go your way, you should ask adults for help to go for success in healthier ways. You should learn to see failure as a natural part of learning. Parents and teachers can help you find purposes, or goals you really love to achieve, which may help you get greater life satisfaction. The point is to remind yourself that something unexpected always happens in your life. It’s often the people who learn to say “stuff happens” who get up the fastest. 4. Why did the star athlete blame herself? A. Because she made mistakes during the match. B. Because she didn’t try her best in the match. C. Because she believed hard work was necessary. D. Because she thought she should have practiced harder. 5. What do many students think according to Paragraph 2? A. Success is not important at all. B. They should bear failure on their own. C. Nobody can beat them except themselves. D. They are sure to succeed if they work hard. 6. The underlined word “something” refers to the fact that ________. A. they don’t want to work hard for their goals B. their parents taught them how to deal with difficulties C. they have no ability to solve problems D. they were guided by a wrong promise 7. Which of the following does the writer probably agree with? A. Hard work will lead to achievements. B. A higher dream is the key to success. C. Success is not always under control. D. Hard work is more important than ability. 【答案】4. A 5. D 6. D 7. C 【解析】 【导语】本文通过一名大学运动员的案例，强调了即使付出努力也可能面临失败的现实。心理学家的观点表明，过于苛求完美会导致无法承受失败。文章倡导要以更健康的方式处理挫折，并从失败中学习，不断进步。 【4题详解】 细节理解题。根据文章第一段中“After making a few mistakes during a weekend match, she couldn’t stop blaming herself. ”可知，因为她在比赛中犯了错误，所以责怪自己，故选A。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Many students, like this girl, have a sense that the nights in the library and the hours on the field should lead them to success.”可知，许多学生认为只要努力工作就一定会成功，故选D。 【6题详解】 代词指代题。根据“But there is something else at play: a wrong promise that they can achieve anything if they are willing to work on it.”可知，这里的“something”指的是一个错误承诺，即只要他们愿意努力，就能实现任何目标，也就是说“他们被一个错误的承诺所引导”。故选D。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“you should ask adults for help to go for success in healthier ways.”和“You should learn to see failure as a natural part of learning.”及最后一段“The point is to remind yourself that something unexpected always happens in your life. ”可知，生活中总有预料之外的事情发生，所以成功并非总是可控的，故选C。 C ① When talking about obeying rules, Abby will never forget her experience with her father and her pet Tobias, a small mouse at the airport years ago. ②One day, Abby’s father was taking her to visit her grandmother and they are not allowed to take a mouse into another country.

Many people believe that the famous physicist, Albert Einstein (1879-1955), had dyslexia. But did you know that researchers at the Cass Business School in London have found that a large percentage of business owners—possibly as many as 35%—are dyslexic? A person with dyslexia has difficulty reading, understanding and memorizing written information. Anybody can be dyslexic—even a genius (天才) like Einstein. If you haven’t realized it yet, dyslexia has nothing to do with intelligence, and it can be an advantage. At least 10% of the world population is dyslexic. It often runs in the family, from one age group to the next. Michael, 23, has had trouble with dyslexia for years. He has recently finished university, where he studied Business Management. He’s intelligent, kind and funny—but things haven’t been easy for him. When he was seven years old, Michael’s teacher noticed that he couldn’t read easily. After a few weeks, an expert found out that the problem was dyslexia. Soon after that, Michael started learning new ways to read during his childhood and teenage years, studying was a huge challenge. “If my non-dyslexic classmates needed ten minutes to read and understand something, ▲ ” We have to admire the courage and efforts it takes dyslexic people to study and pass exams. For centuries, education has depended on reading, writing and memory. These skills are important, but the 21st-century workplace needs other talents, such as creativity. Here’s where people with dyslexia may have an advantage. People like Michael have spent years creating strategies (策略) to manage their dyslexia, and being able to solve problems gives them a big advantage in the world of business, too. “I really believe dyslexia has made me stronger. I’ve never been afraid to take risks. I’ve already faced a lot of challenges in my life, but with patience and hard work, things have gone really well for me so far! ” 12. What can we learn about dyslexia from the text? A. It is a speaking and spelling difficulty. B. Only 10% of business owners have it. C. It has a strong influence on intelligence. D. People may pass it down in a family. 13. Which of the following can be put in the blank ▲ in Paragraph 3? A. it would just be a piece of cake for me. B. sometimes I needed three times longer. C. then I might help others after I made it. D. it might take me less time to finish it. 14. What is the purpose of the text? A. To explain what causes people to suffer from dyslexia. B. To warn us the danger of having dyslexia in daily lives. C. To tell us dyslexia is both a challenge and an advantage. D. To introduce the latest research on patients with dyslexia. 15. What job do you think people with dyslexia can do? Why? (Answer with no more than 20 words. ) _________________________________________________________________________________________ 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. C 15. Artists, because they are creative.(开放性试题，言之有理即可) 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍患有失语症的人在阅读、理解和记忆书面信息方面有困难，但是在21世纪，患有失语症的人的创造力也是他们的优势。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据“It often runs in the family, from one age group to the next.”可知，失语症可能是家族遗传。故选D。 【13题详解】 推理判断题。根据“If my non-dyslexic classmates needed ten minutes to read and understand something,”可知，此处描述的是患有失语症的人需要付出更多的努力，因此此处应该填“有时候我需要三倍的时间”。故选B。 【14题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，本文介绍患有失语症的人在阅读、理解和记忆书面信息方面有困难，但是在21世纪，患有失语症的人的创造力也是他们的优势。因此文章的目的是为了告诉我们诵读困难既是挑战也是优势。故选C。 【15题详解】 本题为开放性试题，言之有理即可，参考答案为Artists, because they are creative. 第二节 任务型阅读 (共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，完成表格。 The Communist Youth League of China (CYLC中国共产主义青年团) was born in May 1922. It is 100 years old this year. Almost every year in May, hundreds of teenagers get together at Tuanyida Square in Guangzhou. It is the place which the CYLC was born in. In 1932, a special school opened in a small village of Ruijin, Jiangxi. It’s the first school of the CYLC. Its first 124 students arrived in December. They were between 14 and 25 in age. They learned about history, politics (政治), geography and other skills. Every night, the students read books and newspapers. They not only learned knowledge, but also put what they learned into practice. At that time, the young people who wanted to join the CYLC made the application form (申请书) by themselves. They needed to write why they wanted to be a CYLC member and how they would do it. Now the application form is printed in a standard form. The form might be different over time. However, the spirit of the CYLC has never changed. Do you know the song of the CYLC? In 1987, Hu Hongwei wrote the lyrics (歌词). He sees young people as a sea of flowers in May and the rising sun.

(b)adly 44. relatives 45. dropped 46. regretted 47. wise 48. effort 49. (d)oubt 50. (p)revent 【解析】 【导语】本文讲述了一个不爱听别人说话的兔子Pete因为一只蚂蚁“Word-Eater”吃掉了他耳朵里听到的话而无法记住事情，后来他开始认真听讲，蚂蚁因无食可吃而死，从此改变了自己的故事。 【41题详解】 句意：从前有一只兔子，名叫皮特，长着两只大耳朵。根据“Once there was a...named Pete with two big ears”和汉语提示可知，此处一个名词，在句中作主语，“兔子”英文为“rabbit”，根据“there was a ”可知，此处应该使用单数，即“rabbit”。故填rabbit。 【42题详解】 句意：很遗憾的是皮特几乎不会把别人的话记在心上。根据“It was a...that Pete hardly put any of others’ words in his ears.”和汉语提示可知，此处是一个名词，在句中做表语，“遗憾，可惜”的英文为“pity”，故填pity。 【43题详解】 句意：他表现很差并且不耐心地听别人讲话。根据“He always performed...and was never patient enough to listen carefully while people were speaking.”和首字母“b”提示可知，此处是一个副词，修饰动词“performed”，句中表述他表现“很差”，可以使用副词“badly”来修饰，“performed badly”意为“表现很差”。故填(b)adly。 【44题详解】 句意：他的朋友和亲戚总是生气和失望，因为皮特总是忘记他们以前的约定。根据“His friends and...got mad and disappointed as Pete always forgot what they had agreed before. ”和汉语提示可知，此处是一个名词，在句中与名词“friends”共同作主语，使用名词复数形式，“亲属”的英文表达为“relatives”，“His friends and relatives”意为“她的朋友和亲戚们”。故填relatives。 【45题详解】 句意：直到有一天，一个名叫‘噬字者’的小蚂蚁从他的耳朵里掉了出来并警告他。根据“Pete examined his ears many times until one day a tiny ant called Word-Eater...out of his ear and warned him,”和汉语提示可知，此处是一个动词，与“out of”构成一个动词短语，在句中作谓语，“掉落”英文为“drop”，本句时态为一般过去时态，因此动词使用过去式形式“dropped”，“dropped out of”意为“掉出来”，故填dropped。 【46题详解】 句意：皮特后悔他之前做过的事情。根据“Pete...what he had done before.”和汉语提示可知，此处是一个动词，在句中作谓语，“后悔”的英文表达为“regret”，句子时态是一般过去时态，谓语动词使用过去式，“regret”的过去式为“regretted”。故填regretted。 【47题详解】 句意：他做了一个明智的决定。根据“Then he made a...decision.”和汉语提示可知，此处是一个形容词，在句中作定语，修饰名词“decision”，“明智的”英文为“wise”，“made a wise decision”意为“做出一个明智的决定”。故填wise。 【48题详解】 句意：他努力去仔细聆听别人说话。根据“He made an...to listen carefully whenever others were speaking.”和汉语提示可知，此处是一个名词，在句中作宾语，“努力”的英文为“effort”，使用单数形式，“made an effort”指“做出努力”。故填effort。 【49题详解】 句意：于是蚂蚁无食物可吃，最后因没有食物而死去。根据“Then the ant had nothing to eat, and finally it was dead without...”和首字母“d”提示可知，此处一个名词，在句中作介词“without”的宾语，“doubt”意为“疑问”，“without doubt”意为“毫无疑问”，故填(d)oubt。 【50题详解】 句意：从那时起，皮特习惯认真倾听，任何事情都阻止不了他记住别人说的话。根据“From then on, Pete was used to listening carefully and nothing could...him from remembering others’ words.”和首字母“p”可知，此处是一个动词，在句中与情态动词“could”一起作谓语，“prevent”意为“阻止”，短语“prevent sb. from doing sth.”指“阻止某人做某事”，情态动词后面跟动词原形，因此使用动词原形“prevent”。故填(p)revent。 第三节 语法填空 (共10个小题，每小题1分，满分10分) 阅读下面材料，在空白处填入适当的内容（1个单词），或括号内所给单词的正确形式。 I am quite devoted to volunteering.

You’ll need ①A short candle in holder ②Matches ③Salt box and large container(容器) ④An adult helper What to do Step 1 Put the candle on the table and ask the adult to light it. Step 2 Put the container on the table next to the candle. Step 3 Blow on the other side of the container(no candle side) as shown in the picture. What happened? Why? The candle flickers(闪烁) and you may be able to blow it out. This is called the “Coanda effect” after a scientist from Romania. Air from your mouth divides into two steams when it hits the container. They flow around both sides, sticking close to the container. Then they join and blow out the candle. 1. Which of the following is TRUE form Step 1 to Step 3? A. The candle should be lit and put on the cantainer. B. The adult should help to put the candle under the table. C. We should blow the container on the side of the candle. D. We should blow the container at the same height as the flame. 2. What is the purpose of this experiment? A To show candles can be blown out in front of a container. B.

B A star athlete at the college where I work recently stopped by my office. After making a few mistakes during a weekend match, she couldn’t stop blaming herself. “I’m in the best condition, and I practice hard. How is this happening?” she asked. Many students, like this girl, have a sense that the nights in the library and the hours on the field should lead them to success. When they win, they feel powerful and smart. When they fail, they always can’t help thinking “It must be all my fault.” It’s common to see some young adults have difficulty in facing failure. Most people believe that’s because, they were well protected by their parents throughout their childhood. But there is something else at play: a wrong promise that they can achieve anything if they are willing to work on it. However, they sometimes fail although they try their best. Psychologist Suniya Luthar believes some teens push themselves toward impossible goals. The fact is that you can do everything in your power and still fail. Instead of beating yourselves up when things don’t go your way, you should ask adults for help to go for success in healthier ways. You should learn to see failure as a natural part of learning. Parents and teachers can help you find purposes, or goals you really love to achieve, which may help you get greater life satisfaction. The point is to remind yourself that something unexpected always happens in your life. It’s often the people who learn to say “stuff happens” who get up the fastest. 4. Why did the star athlete blame herself? A. Because she made mistakes during the match. B. Because she didn’t try her best in the match. C. Because she believed hard work was necessary. D. Because she thought she should have practiced harder. 5. What do many students think according to Paragraph 2? A. Success is not important at all. B. They should bear failure on their own. C. Nobody can beat them except themselves. D. They are sure to succeed if they work hard. 6. The underlined word “something” refers to the fact that ________. A. they don’t want to work hard for their goals B. their parents taught them how to deal with difficulties C. they have no ability to solve problems D. they were guided by a wrong promise 7. Which of the following does the writer probably agree with? A. Hard work will lead to achievements. B. A higher dream is the key to success. C. Success is not always under control. D. Hard work is more important than ability. C ① When talking about obeying rules, Abby will never forget her experience with her father and her pet Tobias, a small mouse at the airport years ago. ②One day, Abby’s father was taking her to visit her grandmother and they are not allowed to take a mouse into another country. It was a rule. But Abby put the mouse into her sock in her bag secretly without telling her dad. When they arrived at the airport, they had to be checked by the X-ray machine. Abby felt her legs shaking and her heart beating fast. Unexpectedly, they passed. ③On the plane, Abby opened up the bag after her dad and the woman next to her fell asleep. Tobias was excited to jump out from the bag. He landed upside down on the woman’s knee. The woman screamed loudly so that many people on the plane heard the voice. At that moment, Abby put Tobias into her bag quickly. Her dad didn’t know at all but slept. ④ After they landed, Abby’s dad ticked (打勾) NO on a paper to: “Are you bringing any live animals into the country?” But a man at the X-ray machine asked Abby to open her bag. Abby had to open the bag and there was Tobias! So the man led Abby and her father into a small, dark room. There were some people in uniforms. Tobias was in the sock on the desk. One police officer talked to Abby’s dad. “This is very serious,” he said, “You have tried to smuggle (偷运) an animal into this country and you have lied on the paper.” “It’s my fault,” Abby said in a low voice, “Dad didn’t know I had Tobias.” The police officer stared at her, “What’s your name? Have you ever been in trouble before?” Abby opened her mouth, but no sound came out. At last, her dad had to pay a big fine for what Abby did. It cost a lot of money. And Tobias had to go into quarantine (隔离检疫) for six months. ⑤It must be a real lesson for Abby. From then on, she never breaks the rules any more. 8.

But did you know that researchers at the Cass Business School in London have found that a large percentage of business owners—possibly as many as 35%—are dyslexic? A person with dyslexia has difficulty reading, understanding and memorizing written information. Anybody can be dyslexic—even a genius (天才) like Einstein. If you haven’t realized it yet, dyslexia has nothing to do with intelligence, and it can be an advantage. At least 10% of the world population is dyslexic. It often runs in the family, from one age group to the next. Michael, 23, has had trouble with dyslexia for years. He has recently finished university, where he studied Business Management. He’s intelligent, kind and funny—but things haven’t been easy for him. When he was seven years old, Michael’s teacher noticed that he couldn’t read easily. After a few weeks, an expert found out that the problem was dyslexia. Soon after that, Michael started learning new ways to read during his childhood and teenage years, studying was a huge challenge. “If my non-dyslexic classmates needed ten minutes to read and understand something, ▲ ” We have to admire the courage and efforts it takes dyslexic people to study and pass exams. For centuries, education has depended on reading, writing and memory. These skills are important, but the 21st-century workplace needs other talents, such as creativity. Here’s where people with dyslexia may have an advantage. People like Michael have spent years creating strategies (策略) to manage their dyslexia, and being able to solve problems gives them a big advantage in the world of business, too. “I really believe dyslexia has made me stronger. I’ve never been afraid to take risks. I’ve already faced a lot of challenges in my life, but with patience and hard work, things have gone really well for me so far! ” 12. What can we learn about dyslexia from the text? A. It is a speaking and spelling difficulty. B. Only 10% of business owners have it. C. It has a strong influence on intelligence. D. People may pass it down in a family. 13. Which of the following can be put in the blank ▲ in Paragraph 3? A. it would just be a piece of cake for me. B. sometimes I needed three times longer. C. then I might help others after I made it. D. it might take me less time to finish it. 14. What is the purpose of the text? A. To explain what causes people to suffer from dyslexia. B. To warn us the danger of having dyslexia in daily lives. C. To tell us dyslexia is both a challenge and an advantage. D. To introduce the latest research on patients with dyslexia. 15. What job do you think people with dyslexia can do? Why?
