When her five daughters were young, Helene An always told them that there was strength in unity (团结). To show this, she held up one chopstick, representing oneperson. Then she easily broke it into two pieces. Next, she tied several chopsticks together, representing a family. She showed the girls it was hard to break the tied chopsticks. This lesson about family unity stayed with the daughters as they grew up.
Helene An and her family own a large restaurant business in California. However, when Helene and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975, they didn't have much money. They moved their family to San Francisco. There they joined Danny's mother, Diana, who owned a small Italian sandwich shop. Soon afterwards, Helene and Diana changed the sandwich shop into a small Vietnamese restaurant. The five daughters helped in the restaurant when they were young. However, Helene did not want her daughters to always work in the family business because she thought it was too hard.
Eventually the girls all graduated from college and went away to work for themselves, but one by one, the daughters returned to work in the family business. They opened new restaurants in San Francisco and Los Angeles. Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other, they worked together to make the business successful. Daughter Elisabeth explains, "Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity, and to have unity we must have peace. Without the strength of the family, there is no business."
Their expanding business became a large corporation in 1996, with three generations of Ans working together. Now the Ans' corporation makes more than $20 million each year. Although they began with a small restaurant, they had big dreams, and they worked together. Now they are a big success.
4. Helene tied several chopsticks together to show ______.
A. the strength of family unity
B. the difficulty of growing up
C. the advantage of chopsticks
D. the best way of giving a lesson
5. We can learn from Paragraph 2 that the Helene An family ______.
A. started a business in 1975
B. left Vietnam without much money
C. bought a restaurant in San Francisco
D. opened a sandwich shop in Los Angeles
6. What can we infer about the five daughters?
A. They did not finish their college education.
B. They could not bear to work in the family business.
C. They were influenced by what Helene taught them.
D. They were troubled by disagreement among family members.
7. Which of the following can be the best title for the passage?
A. How to Run a Corporation
B. Strength Comes from Peace
C. How to Achieve a Big Dream
D. Family Unity Builds Success
【答案】4. A 5. B 6. C 7. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇记叙文。Helene和丈夫离开越南时,他们并不富有。Helene给她的女儿讲述了一个关于团结的故事。几双筷子被绑在一起将会很难被折断,家庭亦是如此。文章通过讲述一个家族企业的发展历程来强调家庭团结的重要性。
【4题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段“she tied several chopsticks together, representing a family. This lesson about family unity...”可知,Helene把筷子绑在一起并试着折断它们,是为了显示团结的力量。故选A项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据“when Helene and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975, they didn't have much money.”可知,当离开越南时,Helene夫妇并没有太多的钱。故选B项。
【6题详解】
推理判断题。根据倒数第二段Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other, they worked together to make the business successful. Daughter Elisabeth explains, "Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity, and to have unity we must have peace. Without the strength of the family, there is no business."可知,尽管有时家庭成员之间意见不一致,但他们一起努力使生意成功。女儿伊丽莎白解释说:“我们的母亲教导我们。要成功,我们必须团结;要团结,我们必须和平相处。没有家庭的力量,就没有生意的成功。所以通过关键词“disagreed with,make the business successful”以及伊丽莎白所说的话可以判断出,这五个女儿受到妈妈教诲的影响,团结一心,把生意越做越大。故选C项。
【7题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Helene An always told them that there was strength in unity (团结).”和第三段“to succeed we must have unity”与第四段“and they worked together. Now they are a big success.”可知,文章主要讲的是家庭团结对取得成功的重要性。所以短文最佳标题为“家庭团结成就成功”。故选D项。
C
“A lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth can get its boots(靴子)on.” said Mark Twain. In today’s Internet world of “fake(假的)news,” lies spread even faster and the truth is having trouble finding its boots.
To make matters worse, most young people get news from social media sites where facts are mixed with rumors(谣言), half-truths and complete lies. This has led to young people becoming confused. In the latest PISA, which tested 15-year-olds worldwide on academic subjects, fewer than one in ten of the examinees were reported to be able to recognize fact from opinion. A Stanford University study showed that students at all levels of education could not tell real news from fake news. In one instance, 80 percent thought that a paid advertisement was a real news story.
Fake news is spread by people who have a prejudice(偏见). They want to influence public opinion either for or against something or someone. It is important, then, for young people to recognize when they are being used and to be doubtful about online information.
Traditional media, such as newspapers and television, are still the more believable sources of information. Reporters are professional trained to look for facts, and editors have the job of making sure those facts are correct. However, if you are getting most of your information online, you have to be your own editor. In that case, the first thing to do is to look at the writer of a post. Is this person known to be objective? Does the site where you read the post have a prejudice? Next, look for other sources from mainstream media to make sure the information. In other words, by putting on your truth boots you won’t be fooled into chasing lies.
8. Why is the quote mentioned in Paragraph 1?
A. To introduce the topic. B. To give an explanation.
C. To offer background information. D. To test readers.
9. What does the writer say about young people with news around?
A. They make fake news and spread it. B. They are easily fooled by fake news.
C. They get worried about their education. D. They can recognize facts from opinions.
10. According to the writer, what can help us avoid being fooled by fake news?
A. Only look for news through media. B. Become a professional and trained reporter.
C. Compare the news from different sources. D. Focus on the new instead of the writer.
11 Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A. What Should a Reporter Do?
B. Who Makes and Spreads Fake New?
C. How Can We Become a Newspaper Editor?
D. How Can We Stay Objective in Reading News?
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了通过互联网假新闻比真新闻传播得更快。某些网站混杂着事实和谣言,让年轻人难以分辨真假。因此,年轻人应该警惕被带有偏见的假新闻传播者利用。为获得真实的新闻,建议人们选择更专业的传统媒体,或者在网上获取新闻时对其进行判断和确认。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段““A lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth can get its boots(靴子)on.” said Mark Twain. In today’s Internet world of “fake(假的)news,” lies spread even faster and the truth is having trouble finding its boots.”(“真相还没穿上鞋,谎言就已经走遍了半个地球。”马克·吐温说。在当今充斥着“假新闻”的互联网世界里,谎言传播得更快,真相也难以站稳脚跟。)和下文围绕“假新闻”展开,可推知,文章在第一段提到了这句话是为了引出话题。故选A项。
【9题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“This has led to young people becoming confused. In the latest PISA, which tested 15-year-olds worldwide on academic subjects, fewer than one in ten of the examinees were reported to be able to recognize fact from opinion. A Stanford University study showed that students at all levels of education could not tell teal news from fake news. In one instance, 80 percent thought that a paid advertisement was a real news story.”(这导致年轻人变得困惑。最新的国际学生评估项目(PISA)测试了全球15岁的学生的学术科目,据报道,只有不到十分之一的考生能够从观点中识别事实。斯坦福大学的一项研究表明,各级教育的学生都无法分辨真实新闻和假新闻。在一个例子中,80%的人认为付费广告是一个真实的新闻故事。)可推知,作者认为周围有新闻的年轻人很容易被假新闻愚弄。故选B项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“Next, look for other sources from mainstream media to make sure the information. In other words, by putting on your truth boots you won’t be fooled into chasing lies.”(其次,从主流媒体上寻找其他来源,以确保信息。换句话说,穿上真相靴,你就不会被骗去追逐谎言。)可推知,根据作者的观点,比较不同来源的新闻可以帮助我们避免被假新闻愚弄。故选C项。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章大意以及第三段中“It is important, then, for young people to recognize when they are being used and to be doubtful about online information.”(因此,对年轻人来说,重要的是要意识到自己何时被利用,并对网络信息持怀疑态度。)和最后一段中“However, if you are getting most of your information online, you have to be your own editor. In that case, the first thing to do is to look at the writer of a post. Is this person known to be objective? Does the site where you read the post have a prejudice? Next, look for other sources from mainstream media to make sure the information. In other words, by putting on your truth boots you won’t be fooled into chasing lies.”(然而,如果你的大部分信息都是在网上获得的,你就必须成为自己的编辑。在这种情况下,首先要做的就是看看帖子的作者。这个人是客观的吗?你读这篇文章的网站有偏见吗?其次,从主流媒体上寻找其他来源,以确保信息。换句话说,穿上真相靴,你就不会被骗去追逐谎言。)可知,文章讲的是通过互联网假新闻比真新闻传播得更快。某些网站混杂着事实和谣言,让年轻人难以分辨真假。因此,年轻人应该警惕被带有偏见的假新闻传播者利用。为获得真实的新闻,建议人们选择更专业的传统媒体,或者在网上获取新闻时对其进行判断和确认。故文章最好的标题是“如何在阅读新闻时保持客观?”。故选D项。
D
What are the limits of the human body? Is there a point at which it is physically impossible to do something?
“One thing we’ve all learned in the last 30 years or so is that just about anything is humanly possible,” says Dr. Jack Wilmore, author of Physiology (生理学) of Sport and Exercise. “As time goes by, I think you’ll see more records continue to fall in every sport. The talent pool is better than ever. With more and better athletes involved and competing, records will fall and new standards will be set.”
Many believed it was physically impossible for a human to run a mile in under four minutes, but Roger Bannister proved that theory wrong with a three-minute, 59-second mile in 1954. Today, sub-four-minute miles are considered routine even in high school. And Bob Beamon stretched human performance in the 1968 Olympics with his historic long jump of 8.90 metres. In an event where a record is usually broken by mere inches, he broke the previous jump record by more than 21 inches, but even his record was broken in 1991.
One factor is now becoming more understood and popular: sports psychology (心理学). Getting inside the athlete’s head can be as effective as training and long workouts. According to Wilmore, the psychological aspect of sports has become more and more esteemed. He points out that most professional teams have hired (聘用) sports psychologists for their players.
In addition, every aspect of athletics — training, nutrition, injury treatment — is far better than it’s ever been. “Besides, children today tend to master one or two sports instead of participating in several as was common twenty-five years ago,” Wilmore says. “That means they start concentrating on a sport much earlier and more intensely (密集地), and they become much better at it.”
“There’s a lot we don’t know yet about the human body,” he adds. “And one of those things is the full range of human potential. It would be foolish to try and put limits on what the human body can do.”
12. Which of the following sentences will Wilmore probably agree with?
A. Athletes will become the most famous people.
B. Athletes will continue to surprise us with their achievements.
C. It is preferable to set universal standards for athletes.
D. It is necessary for athletes to learn the limits of the body.
13. Why are Roger Bannister and Bob Beamon mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. To show some of the latest world records.
B. To explain what athletes can achieve under stress.
C. To introduce two great athletes.
D. To prove the limits of the body can be pushed.
14. What does the underlined word “esteemed” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. valued B. similar C. traditional D. difficult
15. How are today’s children different from those years ago according to Wilmore?
A. They are less likely to get injured in sports.
B. They participate in far more sports.
C. They become more professional at one particular sport.
D. They begin playing sports at a much earlier age.
【答案】12. B 13. D 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章主要探讨了人类身体极限的挑战与突破,强调心理因素和训练的重要性。
【12题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第二段中“As time goes by, I think you’ll see more records continue to fall in every sport. (随着时间的推移,我认为你会看到每项运动的纪录都会不断被打破。)”和第三段中“Many believed it was physically impossible for a human to run a mile in under four minutes, but Roger Bannister proved that theory wrong with a three-minute, 59-second mile in 1954. Today, sub-four-minute miles are considered routine even in high school. (许多人曾认为,人类不可能在四分钟以内跑完一英里,但Roger Bannister在1954年以3分59秒的成绩打破了这一理论。如今,即使在中学里,跑进四分钟以内也被视为稀松平常。)”可知,Wilmore可能会同意“运动员将继续用他们的成就让我们感到惊讶”这一观点。故选B。
13题详解】
推理判断题。由文章第三段“Many believed it was physically impossible for a human to run a mile in under four minutes, but Roger Bannister proved that theory wrong with a three-minute, 59-second mile in 1954. Today, sub-four-minute miles are considered routine even in high school. And Bob Beamon stretched human performance in the 1968 Olympics with his historic long jump of 8.90 metres. In an event where a record is usually broken by mere inches, he broke the previous jump record by more than 21 inches, but even his record was broken in 1991. (许多人曾认为,人类不可能在四分钟以内跑完一英里,但Roger Bannister在1954年以三分59秒的成绩打破了这一理论。如今,即使在中学里,跑进四分钟以内也被视为稀松平常。而在1968年奥运会上,Bob Beamon以8.90米的成绩刷新了跳远历史纪录。在一项纪录通常只以几英寸之差被打破的运动中,他比之前的跳远纪录提高了21英寸多,但他的纪录也在1991年被打破。)”可知,Roger Bannister和Bob Beamon分别打破了人类跑步和跳远的极限,证明了人体的极限是可以被挑战的。因此,他们被提及是为了证明人体的极限可以被推动。故选D。
【14题详解】
词句猜测题。由文章第四段中“According to Wilmore, the psychological aspect of sports has become more and more esteemed. He points out that most professional teams have hired (聘用) sports psychologists for their players. (Wilmore认为,体育运动的心理层面越来越esteemed。他指出,大多数职业运动队都为他们的运动员聘请了运动心理学家。)”可知,大多数职业球队都为他们的球员聘请了运动心理学家,因此Wilmore认为体育的心理方面变得越来越受重视,esteemed在此处的意思是“重视”,与A项valued“重视”意思相符。故选A。
【15题详解】
细节理解题。由文章第五段中““Besides, children today tend to master one or two sports instead of participating in several as was common twenty-five years ago,” Wilmore says. “That means they start concentrating on a sport much earlier and more intensely (密集地), and they become much better at it.” (“此外,如今的孩子往往只擅长一或两项运动,而不是像25年前那样普遍参与多项运动,”Wilmore说,“这意味着他们开始更早、更专注地投入到某项运动中,并在这项运动中变得更加出色。”)”可知,现在的孩子们在某一特定运动上变得更加专业。故选C。
第二节七选五(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。
Say many things, and people will remember none. Say some things, and people will remember some. Say ONE thing, and people will remember ALL. Want to express clear viewpoints? ____16____.
Express more, explain less. ____17____ We think the audience doesn’t understand something, so we explain it, But in that case, explaining serves to correct a failed expression. When you focus on expressing points instead of explaining ideas, you’ll communicate more precisely (精确地). Expressing and delivering are more important about what your audience hears and receives.
____18____ Wherever you see a list of words or concepts (概念), ask yourself: Do I need all these words or concepts to attract my audience’s attention or are some of them not needed? When you remove less important ideas, your audience will gain more.
Limit paragraphs to three sentences. If you’re writing your idea in a document or email, try to make paragraphs to three sentences or less. This makes it easier for readers to understand your points because they have less content to process. And because you’re writing in short, direct points compared with long pieces of text, you may find yourself writing less overall. ____19____.
Hear your own words. No matter how much you review your own, writing, hearing it aloud will always identify places to cut. ____20____ When you say even one word more than you need to, you make your point one word harder for your audience to receive.
A. Remove unnecessary ideas
B. Know your “Need-to-Know”
C. These four tips shouldn’t be missed
D. You can’t change the style of your writing
E. Explaining is often an understanding behavior
F. Everyone benefits from applying this writing rule
G. You can read it aloud yourself to find out the words
【答案】16. C 17. E 18. A 19. F 20. G
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要就如何清楚表达观点提出了一些建议。
【16题详解】
根据上文“Say many things, and people will remember none. Say some things, and people will remember some. Say ONE thing, and people will remember ALL. Want to express clear viewpoints?(说很多事,别人什么也记不住。说一些事情,人们就会记住一些。说一件事,人们就会记住所有。想表达清楚的观点?)”结合后文主要就如何清楚表达观点提出了建议,故C选项“这四条建议不容错过”符合语境,故选C。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Express more, explain less.(多表达,少解释)”以及后文“We think the audience doesn’t understand something, so we explain it. But in that case, explaining serves to correct a failed expression.(我们认为观众不理解的东西,所以我们解释它。但在这种情况下,解释是为了纠正错误的表达)”可知,本句主要在解释这种行为,结合后文可知,观众不理解的东西,所以我们解释它,说明解释是一种理解行为。故E选项“解释通常是一种理解行为”符合语境,故选E。
【18题详解】
根据后文“Wherever you see a list of words or concepts (概念), ask yourself: Do I need all these words or concepts to attract my audience’s attention or are some of them not needed? When you remove less important ideas, your audience will gain more.(无论你在哪里看到一个单词或概念的列表,问问自己:我是否需要所有这些单词或概念来吸引我的听众的注意力,或者其中一些是不需要的?当你删除不太重要的想法时,你的听众会获得更多)”可知,本段的主旨是删除不太重要的想法,故A选项“去掉不必要的想法”符合语境,故选A。
【19题详解】
根据上文“Limit paragraphs to three sentences. If you’re writing your idea in a document or email, try to make paragraphs to three sentences or less. This makes it easier for readers to understand your points because they have less content to process. And because you’re writing in short, direct points compared with long pieces of text, you may find yourself writing less overall.(把段落限制在三句话以内。如果你要在文件或电子邮件中写下你的想法,试着把段落缩短到三句话或更少。这会让读者更容易理解你的观点,因为他们需要处理的内容更少。因为你写的是简短、直接的要点,而不是长篇幅的文章,你可能会发现自己写得不够全面)”可知,本段的建议是“把段落限制在三句话以内”,这是一种写作规则,本句为本段最后一句,说明这种写作规则的好处。故F选项“每个人都能从这个写作规则中受益”符合语境,故选F。
【20题详解】
根据上文“Hear your own words. No matter how much you review your own, writing, hearing it aloud will always identify places to cut.(听听你自己说的话。不管你对自己的文章复习了多少遍,写出来,听到它大声地说出来总能找出要删减的地方)”可知,上文提到了大声地阅读自己的文章,来找出需要删减的地方,G选项中read it aloud对应上文hearing it aloud。故G选项“你可以自己大声朗读来找出单词”符合语境,故选G。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了经常进行体育活动的好处。
【36题详解】
考查冠词。句意:有规律的锻炼可以增加身体的能量消耗,也是提高一天工作效率的好方法。way为可数名词单数,空前无限定词,表示“一个好方法”,应用不定冠词a,表示泛指。故填a。
【37题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意:锻炼带来的能量水平增加也可能导致人们在一天中养成更积极的习惯,比如爬楼梯而不是坐电梯,或者走路去和同事交谈而不是发邮件。根据示“导致”,由谓语动词“are”可动词短语be likely to do sth表示“可能做某事”可知,此处使用动词不定式形式。故填to lead。
【38题详解】
考查动名词。句意:锻炼带来的能量水平增加也可能导致人们在一天中养成更积极的习惯,比如爬楼梯而不是坐电梯,或者走路去和同事交谈而不是发邮件。空处与“taking”并列作介词短语“such as”的宾语,故应用动词walk的动名词形式。故填walking。
【39题详解】
考查名词。句意:体育活动可以帮助我们改善睡眠的长度和质量,这反过来又会对我们的健康和幸福做出进一步的贡献。空处应用名词,作宾语;contribution表示“贡献”,为可数名词,动词短语make contributions to表示“对……做出贡献”,故应用复数,表示泛指。故填contributions。
【40题详解】
考查连词。句意:虽然在睡眠时间方面没有一个绝对的数字,但大多数人会发现他们每晚的睡眠时间在6-9小时之间。空处应为连词,引导状语从句;由句意可知,两句之间为转折关系,故应用连词while/although/though,表示“虽然”,句首字母大写。故填While/Although/Though。
【41题详解】
考查介词。句意:虽然在睡眠时间方面没有一个绝对的数字,但大多数人会发现他们每晚的睡眠时间在6-9小时之间。空处应为介词,后加名词短语“6-9 hours”,表示“在6-9个小时之间”,between为介词,表示“(时间上)在……之间”,符合句意。故填between。
【42题详解】
考查副词。句意:质量当然比数量更重要。空处应用副词,修饰动词“is”,作状语;certainly为副词,表示“当然”,符合句意。故填certainly。
【43题详解】
考查副词比较级。句意:有规律的体育锻炼可以作为一种转移注意力的技能帮助我们更好地管理生活压力。空处应用副词,修饰动词“manage”,作状语;much后应用副词的比较级形式。故填better。
【44题详解】
考查过去分词。句意:此外,据认为,运动可以帮助提高我们使控制中心在我们的大脑和神经系统活跃的能力,这当我们处于压力之下是非常有用的。空处为主句的谓语动词,主语“it”代替that引导的主语从句,根据“is”和句意可知,该句为一般现在时的被动语态,故空处应用过去分词,it is thought that...可译为“据认为……”。故填thought。
【45题详解】
考查定语从句。句意:此外,据认为,运动可以帮助提高我们使控制中心在我们的大脑和神经系统活跃的能力,这当我们处于压力之下是非常有用的。空处引导非限制性定语从句,修饰前面的主句,在从句中作主语,故应用关系代词which。故填which。

【答案】Dear Jim,
Knowing that you have got so addicted to mobile games that it has affected your academic performance badly, I am concerned about you a lot.
As is the fact, the use of the cellphone has boomed in the last decade and mobile games have occupied most of our spare time. However, it is not supposed to be the core of life. To get rid of it, I strongly recommend that you develop a healthy habit to divert your attention from the mobile games. Travelling, for example, is a nice option in which you can enjoy the beauty of nature as well as improve the relationship with your family.
I do hope my suggestions are of some help and that you can spend your time more meaningfully.
Yours,

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My birthday was coming, and I was in a good mood. Some of my roommates had finished brushing their teeth and washing their faces. They were chatting outside while I was on duty in the dormitory. So, I got down to cleaning with a serious attitude, busier than ever before. As I looked at the neatly arranged toothbrushes and other supplies, my heart bloomed with joy.
Suddenly, Alex came in, casually pulled out a towel, turned on the water tap, washed it, and wiped his face a few times. In the process, he messed up all the neatly arranged brushing supplies. I felt an instant rush of frustration (挫败). But I controlled myself and calmly said to him, “Could you please put them back later?”
“Excuse me, but it's your turn to do the cleaning today!” said Alex.
“I've already arranged them well, and you made a mess!” I said.
“Well, you can just arrange them again!” At that moment, I felt annoyed, but the bell rang. And then he ran out. I quickly rearranged everything and left hurriedly, too.
During the morning run, as I was preparing to take a deep breath of fresh air to relax my mind and body, I accidentally saw Alex again. This time, he smiled at me-it was a genuine smile. I felt a bit embarrassed about my earlier annoyance and decided to let it go.
Later in the canteen, I noticed Alex struggling to find a seat for breakfast. Remembering the time when we used to help each other, I waved him over to join me. He looked surprised and grateful. We shared a pleasant meal, talking about our classes and plans for the weekend. It felt really good to reconnect.
After class, I saw Alex looking through his bag. I asked him what was wrong. He told me that he might have lost his favorite book. I remembered how much he loved that book. Thinking about the earlier misunderstanding, I decided to surprise him by getting him a new book as a peace offering.
注意:

On the night of my birthday, I found a postcard in my drawer of my dormitory.

I came over to Alex with my newly bought book.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】On the night of my birthday, I found a postcard in my drawer of my dormitory. When I checked it , I saw a row of familiar handwriting. “Sorry for the trouble I caused. Happy birthday! Your friend, Alex.” Wonderful memories of our friendship flooded back, and a surge of warmth filled me. I realized that I, too, needed to make amends. It was a heartfelt reminder of the good times that we had shared, from late-night study sessions to weekend adventures. I felt a deep sense of regret for letting a small misunderstanding strain our bond.
I came over to Alex with my newly bought book. With a lump in my throat, I bravely expressed my feelings, saying, “Sorry for my unfriendliness. Here is your favorite book!” Hearing my words, Alex smiled, with his eyes sparkling with excitement. He took the new book, and I knew we were still good friends. From that day on, no matter who was on duty in the dormitory, we both made an effort to keep the toiletries in order. For me, this experience taught me that mutual understanding and respect are the key to maintaining harmonious relationships.
【解析】

When her five daughters were young, Helene An always told them that there was strength in unity (团结). To show this, she held up one chopstick, representing oneperson. Then she easily broke it into two pieces. Next, she tied several chopsticks together, representing a family. She showed the girls it was hard to break the tied chopsticks. This lesson about family unity stayed with the daughters as they grew up.
Helene An and her family own a large restaurant business in California. However, when Helene and her husband Danny left their home in Vietnam in 1975, they didn't have much money. They moved their family to San Francisco. There they joined Danny's mother, Diana, who owned a small Italian sandwich shop. Soon afterwards, Helene and Diana changed the sandwich shop into a small Vietnamese restaurant. The five daughters helped in the restaurant when they were young. However, Helene did not want her daughters to always work in the family business because she thought it was too hard.
Eventually the girls all graduated from college and went away to work for themselves, but one by one, the daughters returned to work in the family business. They opened new restaurants in San Francisco and Los Angeles. Even though family members sometimes disagreed with each other, they worked together to make the business successful. Daughter Elisabeth explains, "Our mother taught us that to succeed we must have unity, and to have unity we must have peace. Without the strength of the family, there is no business."
Their expanding business became a large corporation in 1996, with three generations of Ans working together. Now the Ans' corporation makes more than $20 million each year. Although they began with a small restaurant, they had big dreams, and they worked together. Now they are a big success.
4. Helene tied several chopsticks together to show ______.
A. the strength of family unity
B. the difficulty of growing up
C. the advantage of chopsticks
D. the best way of giving a lesson
5. We can learn from Paragraph 2 that the Helene An family ______.

“A lie can travel halfway around the world before the truth can get its boots(靴子)on.” said Mark Twain. In today’s Internet world of “fake(假的)news,” lies spread even faster and the truth is having trouble finding its boots.
To make matters worse, most young people get news from social media sites where facts are mixed with rumors(谣言), half-truths and complete lies. This has led to young people becoming confused. In the latest PISA, which tested 15-year-olds worldwide on academic subjects, fewer than one in ten of the examinees were reported to be able to recognize fact from opinion. A Stanford University study showed that students at all levels of education could not tell real news from fake news. In one instance, 80 percent thought that a paid advertisement was a real news story.
Fake news is spread by people who have a prejudice(偏见). They want to influence public opinion either for or against something or someone. It is important, then, for young people to recognize when they are being used and to be doubtful about online information.
Traditional media, such as newspapers and television, are still the more believable sources of information. Reporters are professional trained to look for facts, and editors have the job of making sure those facts are correct. However, if you are getting most of your information online, you have to be your own editor. In that case, the first thing to do is to look at the writer of a post. Is this person known to be objective? Does the site where you read the post have a prejudice? Next, look for other sources from mainstream media to make sure the information. In other words, by putting on your truth boots you won’t be fooled into chasing lies.
8. Why is the quote mentioned in Paragraph 1?
A. To introduce the topic. B. To give an explanation.
C. To offer background information. D. To test readers.
9. What does the writer say about young people with news around?
A. They make fake news and spread it. B. They are easily fooled by fake news.
C. They get worried about their education. D. They can recognize facts from opinions.
10. According to the writer, what can help us avoid being fooled by fake news?
A. Only look for news through media. B. Become a professional and trained reporter.
C. Compare the news from different sources. D. Focus on the new instead of the writer.
11. Which of the following is the best title for the passage?
A What Should a Reporter Do?
B. Who Makes and Spreads Fake New?
C. How Can We Become a Newspaper Editor?
D. How Can We Stay Objective in Reading News?
D
What are the limits of the human body? Is there a point at which it is physically impossible to do something?
“One thing we’ve all learned in the last 30 years or so is that just about anything is humanly possible,” says Dr. Jack Wilmore, author of Physiology (生理学) of Sport and Exercise. “As time goes by, I think you’ll see more records continue to fall in every sport. The talent pool is better than ever. With more and better athletes involved and competing, records will fall and new standards will be set.”
Many believed it was physically impossible for a human to run a mile in under four minutes, but Roger Bannister proved that theory wrong with a three-minute, 59-second mile in 1954. Today, sub-four-minute miles are considered routine even in high school. And Bob Beamon stretched human performance in the 1968 Olympics with his historic long jump of 8.90 metres. In an event where a record is usually broken by mere inches, he broke the previous jump record by more than 21 inches, but even his record was broken in 1991.
One factor is now becoming more understood and popular: sports psychology (心理学). Getting inside the athlete’s head can be as effective as training and long workouts. According to Wilmore, the psychological aspect of sports has become more and more esteemed. He points out that most professional teams have hired (聘用) sports psychologists for their players.
In addition, every aspect of athletics — training, nutrition, injury treatment — is far better than it’s ever been. “Besides, children today tend to master one or two sports instead of participating in several as was common twenty-five years ago,” Wilmore says. “That means they start concentrating on a sport much earlier and more intensely (密集地), and they become much better at it.”
“There’s a lot we don’t know yet about the human body,” he adds. “And one of those things is the full range of human potential. It would be foolish to try and put limits on what the human body can do.”
12. Which of the following sentences will Wilmore probably agree with?
A. Athletes will become the most famous people.
B. Athletes will continue to surprise us with their achievements.
C. It is preferable to set universal standards for athletes.
D. It is necessary for athletes to learn the limits of the body.
13. Why are Roger Bannister and Bob Beamon mentioned in paragraph 3?
A. To show some of the latest world records.
B. To explain what athletes can achieve under stress.
C. To introduce two great athletes.
D. To prove the limits of the body can be pushed.
14. What does the underlined word “esteemed” in paragraph 4 mean?
A. valued B. similar C. traditional D. difficult
15. How are today’s children different from those years ago according to Wilmore?
A. They are less likely to get injured in sports.
B. They participate in far more sports.
C. They become more professional at one particular sport.
D. They begin playing sports at a much earlier age.

Limit paragraphs to three sentences. If you’re writing your idea in a document or email, try to make paragraphs to three sentences or less.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
My birthday was coming, and I was in a good mood. Some of my roommates had finished brushing their teeth and washing their faces. They were chatting outside while I was on duty in the dormitory. So, I got down to cleaning with a serious attitude, busier than ever before. As I looked at the neatly arranged toothbrushes and other supplies, my heart bloomed with joy.
Suddenly, Alex came in, casually pulled out a towel, turned on the water tap, washed it, and wiped his face a few times. In the process, he messed up all the neatly arranged brushing supplies. I felt an instant rush of frustration (挫败). But I controlled myself and calmly said to him, “Could you please put them back later?”
“Excuse me, but it's your turn to do the cleaning today!” said Alex.
“I've already arranged them well, and you made a mess!” I said.
“Well, you can just arrange them again!” At that moment, I felt annoyed, but the bell rang. And then he ran out. I quickly rearranged everything and left hurriedly, too.
During the morning run, as I was preparing to take a deep breath of fresh air to relax my mind and body, I accidentally saw Alex again. This time, he smiled at me-it was a genuine smile. I felt a bit embarrassed about my earlier annoyance and decided to let it go.
Later in the canteen, I noticed Alex struggling to find a seat for breakfast. Remembering the time when we used to help each other, I waved him over to join me. He looked surprised and grateful. We shared a pleasant meal, talking about our classes and plans for the weekend. It felt really good to reconnect.
After class, I saw Alex looking through his bag. I asked him what was wrong. He told me that he might have lost his favorite book. I remembered how much he loved that book. Thinking about the earlier misunderstanding, I decided to surprise him by getting him a new book as a peace offering.
注意:
1.续写词数应为150个左右;
2.请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
On the night of my birthday, I found a postcard in my drawer of my dormitory.
