My Masterpiece
I had always wanted to try one of those guided painting classes where an
instructor()tells you how to draw step by step.So I,with my friend Ella,
signed up a 1 class.
Our first task was to paint a white vase()of yellow sunflowers against a
blue background.As the class began,we were asked to paint our canvas()blue.
It was 2 to follow the instructor and I could tell I was a natural.I even
started thinking about where I would3 my new masterpiece.
Almost immediately after that,however,I began to 4 serious difticulties.
The first line of my vase looked perfect,but when I continued to paint,my hand
slipped,causing an imperfect line.I tried to cover it,but it was no use.
Things went downhill5after that.The sunflower leaves looked like
fat,green caterpillars().My numerous attempts to 6 them just made
them worse.
Feeling 7,I glanced(at others'paintings.When I said Ella's was
better,she looked surprised."No,they're not.I messed up in at least five places."
After a few seconds,she asked,"If you like mine,why don't we8 paintings?"

Up until that moment,yet for some reasons,giving it away felt wrong.No,it
wasn't a perfect painting,but it was mine-the first one I had ever9
That was two years ago,and since then I've taken a few more classes and
gotten better at following the instructor's directions.And my sunflower painting
still hangs in the most prominent(显眼的)place in my room-as

that painting makes me feel happy now.

A
In 1957,humans sent the first artificial satellite into space.Today,nearly 70
years later,experts predict some 100 trillion pieces of human-made objects are
encircling our planet.
Those objects are travelling at speeds of about 17,000 miles an hour.A
collision()between space junk and things like the International Space Station
or working satellites oan be dangerous."It's only getting more crowded."says
Moriba Jah,Nat Geo Explorer and space environmentalist."There's no garbage
removal in space,so it keeps becoming more difficult to travel in."
Luckily,scientists are working on ideas that might one day help clean up
space junk.Here are four that experts have considered,plus some of the most
unusual space junk that's ever orbited our planet.

Danny was just putting his cleats(into his locker when his teammate,
Max,informed him that Mr.Irving,the prineipal wanted to see bim in the office.
He headed for the office,wondering why.He was a fairly good student,so it
wasn't his grades.Though,to be honest,he'd been making things alittle werse,
especially that last math test-ouch.But this was the first time the bascball team
had run for the state championship in 11 years and as the star pitcher(明星投手),
Danny had helped take them there.Surely there is nothing that can't be forgiving.
Taking a big breath,he stepped inside to find Mr.Irving,Coach Geller,and
surprisingly,his mother waiting for him,who scemed to have cried.Uh,oh.He
must really be in trouble.
Mr.Irving broke the news that Danny wouldn't be able to play in the last
game of the championship.Coach Geller had accidentally left Danny's name off
the roster((候选名单),and additions weren't allowed after it was handed in.
"We're very sorry,Danny,"said Mr.Irving,"I have been trying to fix it,but so
far,no luck."Danny didn't know what to say.
As the game began,Danny cheered for his team,feeling a mix of emotions as
its score rose and fell.In the bottom of the ninth,Simo hit a winning run,ensuring
the victory for their team.Danny exploded out of his seat and rushed to the field to
celebrate with his teammates,giving each other high-fives.
That night,as he told the story,his mother listened quietly and said,"You
should have played.That was your victory,and it was taken from you."
"No way,"he said with the biggest smile of his life."That win today?That
was my win,and Max's,and Simo's too.Don't you get it,Mom?That's what it
means to be part of a team.I helped get us to the championship.And in my own
way,I helped win it,too."
His mother looked at him almost like she'd never seen him before.Then she
smiled and hugged him tightly.
"You're right,Danny!Three cheers for your big win!"

A.Disappointed.
B.Excited.

Firstly,I know this is a first world problem and I need to "dry my eyes".I
have a very small dishwasher in a very small kitchen.The other week when a
friend showed me her new house with a big kitchen and a large dishwasher,I felt
my throat got tight.I didn't quite know what to say.And why did I even compare
my life with other people's life?
Maybe you'll agree you have a similar experience.Why is this?I think a huge
factor is how addicted we've all become to social media.We stare at people's
beautiful vacation photos at some great party wondering,"Why isn't my life like
that?"We forget that what we see are the carefully edited highlights of a person's
life aiming to give an impression of what they want to see-not necessarily how
their life actually is.
Social media seem to give us anxiety that we aren't doing as well as others or
living up to expectations that we put on ourselves.On a good day,we can use this
life envy to inspire ourselves-if they can do it,so can we!But on a bad day,we
高一英语第5页(共12页)
just feel angry,sad,disappointed,and worst of all,bitter.No one wants to admit to
feeling envious.It is such a prohibited subject-desiring what others have.
So how do we overcome our little green-eyed monster?Stepping away from
social media is a start.The less we pay attention to what other people are doing,the
fewer opportunities we have to compare ourselves to them.Next step is to give
ourselves some tolerance()and know that it's a completely natural feeling.It
doesn't make us bad persons;it's just a part of being human.
And most importantly,we need to start focusing on ourselves instead of others.
The root of the problem is more a problem with how we're feeling about ourselves
than those we envy.My mom used to always tell me to "row your own boat"and I
think about that little phrase all the time.It may not be the biggest for it-and who
knows where the journey will take us?Sure it beats feeling envious.
19.Describing his/her personal experience,the author aims to
A.introduce a topic
B.give a suggestiou-
C.present a definition
D.highlight an opinion
20.What does the author think of social media?
A.It weakens face-to-face communication.
B.It helps to overcome negative feelings:
C.It brings information-sharing culturet
D.It fails to truly reflect people's life.
21.Which of the following might the author agree with?
A.Noticing Tom's new car,you post your car photos to impress others.
B.Seeing Mark's success in business,you think you are not as good as him.
C.Knowing Amy's moved to a big house,you think it wrong to feel unhappy.
D.Hearing Betty has got a nice new job,you shift your focus on what you have.
22.What is the author's purpose in writing the passage?
A.To inform us of the ways to cure anxiety.
B.To tell us how to deal with feeling envious.
C.To warn us of the bad effects of social media
D.To explain why people always compare with others

When considering the members of my social network,I often find myself
enveloped in pure feelings of love and warmth.affection and support.A handful,
however farouse'quite different emotions-a mixture of eagerness and fear.In the
right mood,these individuals can deliver a fun-filled evening,but at the wrong
moment,they can exhaust all my goodwill.If this sounds familiar,then you too
have frenemies.Psychologists call them"ambivalent relationships".According to a
wealth of research these relationships are often more stressful.They can damage
your mental and physical health.
Knowing this,the simple solution would seem to be to cut ties with these
people.But our relationships with frenemies aren't simple and ditching()
them isn't always possible or even desirable.
To capture interpersonal dynamics,Julianne Holt-Lunstad and her Utah-based
Brigham Young University colleagues designed a scale identifying four
relationship categories.Try it:pick people in your network and answer two
questions on a 1-6 scale.When you are feeling in need of advice,understanding or
a favour,how helpful is your connection?Likewise,how upsetting is your
connection?
People scoring 1 on both are indifferent relationships.Those who score high
on helpfulness and low on upset are supportive ties;low on helpfulness and high on
upset are aversive relationships;both high indicate ambivalent connections-
frenemies.They may be incredibly generous when you have a problem yet can also
lash out (with a bitter put-down when they feel envious or threatened.
We might hope the good outweighs the bad in such relationships,but research
complicates this.Holt-Lunstad's team found that simply knowing that an
ambivalent connection was in the next room as participants prepared to give a
speech was enough to send their blood pressure rocketing.It also slowed their
recovery after the task.In fact,even unintentional reminders of a frenemy can
shatter our peace of mind.
Furthermore,ambivalent connections contribute to telomere decline.Telomeres,
protective caps at chromosome()ends,prevent DNA damage during cell
高一语

division.As we age,telomeres wear down,and,when they become too short,cells
may start to malfunction or die.Shorter telomeres increase the risk of age-related
diseases.
The problems of ambivalent connections are hard to solve,especially in work
or family.Simply being aware of the ambivalent nature of a relationship might
offer some protection,so that we could manage expectations,focus more on the
good in these people and feel compassion for their unpleasant streaks,while also
attempting to reduce contact when they cause stresses.Just as importantly this has
prompted me to consider my own behavior-are there relationships in which I am
the frenemy?
23.What does the underlined word"ambivalent"in paragraph 1 mean?
A.Giving help or encouragement.
B.Continuing or developing gradually.
C.Having a mixture of opposing feelings.
D.Happening sometimes and not at other times.
24.The author uses Julianne Holt-Lunstad's scale to
A.measure the level of generosity in friendships
B.predict the outcome of conflicts with frenemies
C.show it's difficult to break up with.frenemie
D.compare the benefits of different connections
25.What can we learn about frenemies from the passage?
A.Ambivalent connections can shorten telomere to prevent DNA damage.
B.Frenemies don't need to say a word to cause anxiety.
C.Interacting with frenemies hardly results in helpful connections.
D.High expectations on frenemies improve the relationship
26.What's the best title for the passage?
A.Understanding and Managing Frenemies
B.The Complexities of Human Relationships
C.The Impact of Frenemies on Our Well-being
D.The Doubre-Edged Sword of Social Connections

A child excitedly opens a present,but after seeing the toy,she shifts her focus
to the wrapping paper,box,or ribbon()She might place the box on her head
or tie the ribbon to a table leg.This is open-ended play,where children use
everyday objects in creative,unstructured ways.It's child-directed,with no set
outcome.Research shows open-ended play is beneticial in sometimes surprising
ways.
Open-ended play starts with the objects children play with.Unlike electronic
toys or movie-based toys,open-ended toys-often called "loose parts"-give
children the room to do something new.Loose parts can include egg holders,
seashells,or cardboard boxes and other common objects.They are the basis for
imaginative play that helps children become more creative.
When a child picks up a stick and imagines it as a horse or telescope,she is
exercising the ability to create and to think for herself.Each step in the process of
free play is valuable.The process begins with choosing an object,then
transforming()it in her imagination into something new with its own purpose.
Manufactured(toys do not give the mind the same freedom to imagine as
do common objects that do not come with expectations or history.
Obviously,adult-directed activities are more controlled and more predictable,
and often shield children from making mistakes.Open-ended play allows children
to follow their interests and to make mistakes.With parents playing a more passive
role,children are responsible for these mistakes.This allows for more chances to
solve problems and creates opportunities for children to be successful,building
confidence in their ability to reason.
The reality of modern life is that much of children's lives will be structured.
But it does not all have to be.When parents,teachers,and caregivers take a step
back,they open the door wider for children to create and learn.

A Hero's Second Chance
On Dec.26,Gelinne,60,was looking out the back windows of his home at the
frozen lake.Then an airplane came into his sight.Gelinne looked up just in time to
see that small airplane a few hundred yards away,losing control.
As the plane disappeared behind the trees,Gelinne,a retired Navy()
officer,realized it was going to land in the lake.He flashed on a moment from
more than 20 years earlier:Gelinne was at work in a bank.When a fire alarm rang,
he escaped from the chaos()but has always wondered if he could have stayed
inside and helped.
On this day,Gelinne didn't hesitate.He ran down to the
a tail wing
waterfront.The plane had skidded(to a stop on the broad,
frozen lake,far from shore.It was now sinking.The pilot was
standing on the wing.Gelinne knew trom his Navy training
that even a few minutes in the icy water could kill the pilot.
Gelinne tested the ice with his foot and decided not to take any chances
walking on it.So he pulled a boat out from under his back deck.
Then he set off,pushing his boat across the ice.It was tough work.When
Gelinne reached the plane,it had broken through the ice and sunk;only its tail
could be seen.The pilot was standing on a tail wing under the water and the water
reaches as high as his chest.Gelinne pushed his boat off the ice and into the water,
paddling()toward the pilot.
