I didn’t realize that teamwork is much more important than personal performance until I lost the soccer match. Last week, our team lost the game in the “City Mayor Cup”. I still remember clearly when I had the ball on the field, coming up to the goal. I was in a better position to pass the ball instead of shooting. One of my teammates was in the best position to shoot and score. But I really wanted to score the goal myself and win the match. I wanted to be the hero. I shot but failed. I was so upset and it felt like a big black cloud was hanging over my head. After the match, I apologized to my teammates and my coach. They didn’t blame me. But my coach’s words stayed with me. He said, “The game is not all about winning or losing.” The experience made me grow up and taught me the importance of teamwork.

Here are some answers. You know those Hollywood films where the foreigner is living a nice, easy, comfortable life in another country? Well, forget it — that’s not how it is. You have to do all kinds of things like finding somewhere to live, paying bills, and so on. These things aren’t easy and they take time. After a few weeks I start to miss all kinds of things (and people) from back home. The special food, those TV programmes, and the friends whom I used to hang out with. Well, I know it’s a phase I have to go through. I hope the homesickness won’t last forever. Before I came, I thought my French was pretty good. But now I know I’m not good enough. People talk to me in the way they talk to each other — fast! There’s new vocabulary which you have to pick up — the first time I went to a hairdresser, I didn’t know what to say! Speaking French all day wears me out. Often, at night, I’ll watch anything on TV in English! Anything! 21．What does Becca think of her life in France? A．It’s really fun and nice. B．She has to be on her own. C．She gets no chance to study. D．It’s the easy life that she wants. 22．What’s the biggest challenge for Jackie? A．Language problems. B．Homesickness. C．No friends to play with. D．Getting used to the food. 23．In which situation can we probably hear the above three answers? A．On a magic show. B．In a science movie. C．In a street interview. D．At a music concert. B For more than 1,300 years in feudal China, a system of the imperial examination (科举制度) was used to select government officials. Here is a story about a student taking the imperial examination. One day, on his way to the capital to sit the final imperial examination, a young man spent a night at an old temple. After supper, he had an interesting conversation with an old monk (和尚) there. The monk said that people thought everything in the world is either male or female, and he asked his guest how to tell the male of seawater or trees from the female. The young man thought it over but couldn’t come up with an answer. The monk then explained that for the seawater, billows (巨浪) are male and waves are female because males are usually bigger than females. For trees, the pine (松) tree is male because the Chinese character for it contains a male radical (部首), and the plum（梅子) tree is female because it has a female component (成分) in the word. The student found the answer interesting but not very excellent. However, it happened that the title of the thesis (论文) for the imperial examination that year was On the Gender of All Things in the World. So, the student quoted what the monk said in his thesis. Surprisingly, he not only passed the examination but came in first. The young man was so grateful to the old monk that he later presented the man with a tablet (匾) with the words, “To chat with you for one night is better than to study for 10 years.” 24．How did the writer start the passage? A．By introducing the background of the story. B．By telling the history of the imperial examination. C．Вy explaining the role of the imperial examination. D．By showing the background of the imperial examination. 25．What did the student think of what the monk said? A．He didn’t all agree with the monk. B．He completely agreed with the monk. C．He agreed none of what the monk said. D．He thought what the monk said was boring. 26．What can we infer from the passage? A．It’s difficult for us to succeed without the help of others. B．The more you communicate with others, the easier it is to succeed. C．It’s hard for people to become a government official in feudal China. D．Communicating with wise people can help us get knowledge better. C From a black bear and a wild pig to a snake and a bee’s nest, from landslides and thunderstorms to getting lost and car accidents, Zhou You has met various difficulties during his trips. He describes himself as someone who looks dirty in poor clothes with two cameras. However, when he sees a plant, his eyes light up. Zhou lives a lonely life each year from April to October. He is never home, either taking photos of plants in the mountains or on his way to find plants. As for the rest of year, he never leaves his chair at home, writing down the information about plants that he’s got from his trips for books. The 60-year-old is a retired professor of a university in Jilin province. His decades of hard work has recently turned into a book series, Atlas of Medicinal Plant Recourse in the Northeast of China, which is made up of nine books about over 1,800 wild medicinal plants with 5.5 million words and over 13,000 photos. It has been well known as Northeast China’s modern version (版本) of Bencao Gangmu, an encyclopedic work of medicine and natural history, by Li Shizhen from the Ming Dynasty. During his first trip to Changbai Mountain, he was deeply impressed by its beauty. He started to collect information about plants in his 20s when he realized that the information of many plant species was incomplete. Since then, he has decided to visit the mountain and take photos of the plants and their environment to fill in the missing parts. The book series is believed to have important reference (参考) value for experts who study medicinal plants in Northeast China and it provides first-hand information for the development, usage and protection of the plants in the area. 27．What do we know about Zhou You’s work from the first two paragraphs? A．Danger is part of his field work. B．His work is to take photos of plants. C．He takes plants home for further study. D．He feels lonely working in the mountain. 28．Why does the writer mention Bencao Gangmu in Paragraph 3? A．Bencao Gangmu is a well-known historic book. B．Zhou’s book is thought to be as important as Bencao Gangmu. C．Zhou’s book is an important part of Bencao Gangmu. D．Bencao Gangmu is also about medicine and natural history. 29．Why does the writer include the last paragraph? A．To tell how the experts make good use of Zhou You’s book series. B．To praise Zhou You’s famous book and his great life achievements. C．To show the influence of Zhou’s book on the research of medicinal plants. D．To explain why people accept Zhou You’s information about medicinal plants. 30．What can we learn from Professor Zhou? A．It’s never too old to learn. B．The early bird catches the worm. C．One can achieve success on his own. D．Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. D Have you heard of mental toughness? Often talked about in relation to sports, mental toughness is characterized by the ability to always perform well under stress. Research has shown that it is also a useful quality (品质) for students, with benefits for school achievement, classroom behavior, and relationships with others. However, mental toughness is often misunderstood. It is sometimes related to hiding your feelings, or not acknowledging (承认) your weaknesses, which can harm student well-being, as well as school performance and socializing. So, what actually is mental toughness, and how can it be developed in schools? Students who show mental toughness are aware of and able to control their emotions. This helps them to think clearly under stress, on the day of exams for example. One way to help with this is to encourage students to talk to themselves in a positive and helpful way. Students may be upset if they don’t do as well on a task as they hoped. By asking themselves questions, such as “What would I do differently next time?”, they can stop focusing on the negatives and direct their attention towards improving in the future. Mental toughness means asking for help. Many students are too ashamed to do it, for fear they would show weakness by acknowledging they don’t understand something. However, others actually consider it a positive quality. Recognizing when they are experiencing difficulties takes courage for students, but it also shows a willingness to learn and get better. Mental toughness is also about being open to learning, not being a know-it-all. Over time, the students who grow the most are those who like to explore things, looking for answers in books, online, or by paying attention to what’s happening around them. They also work together, helping each other with challenges. What’s more, mental toughness involves having a strong sense of self-belief and confidence in one’s abilities. Mentally tough students have a clear idea of their goals, and their wills to achieve them are unwavering. They are not easily influenced by others’ opinions and are willing to step outside of their comfort zone to reach their goals. To create mentally tough students and classrooms, it is important for teachers themselves to be role models. Teachers can develop their mental toughness in much the same way as students. In order to develop mental toughness, both students and teachers should recognize that it is about having positive behaviors and attitudes that help them learn and improve. 31．You were most probably being mentally tough when ________ . A．you kept your sadness inside without telling others B．you acted as if you were doing well with everything C．you received praise for answering a difficult question D．you managed your nervousness to make a great speech 32．The word “unwavering” in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to________ . A．unshakeable B．unacceptable C．unclear D．uncommon 33．What can we learn from the passage? A．Experiencing difficulties makes students fess willing to learn. B．Mentally tough students doubt their abilities when facing failure. C．Mentally tough students have curiosity about the world around them. D．High-performing students are more likely to have a good attitude to learning. 34．According to the passage, what is important for teachers to do in order to develop mental toughness in their students? A．Maintain a strict and authoritative classroom environment. B．Avoid making mistakes in front of students. C．Focus only on academic performance and achievement. D．Show positive behaviors and attitudes. 35．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A．Why Is Mental Toughness a Key to Success? B．What Does Mental Toughness Look like in Schools? C．How Does Mental Toughness Influence School Achievement? D．Who Should Be Responsible for Developing Mental Toughness? （二）阅读短文，并从下面方框的六个句子中选择五个还原到文中，使原文的意思完整、连贯。 Restaurants are changing with new technology.

Tea, as well as silk and porcelain, began to be known by the world over a thousand years ago and has been an important Chinese export since then. Tea has a history of over 4,000 years and China is the home of tea. In ancient China, tea was used as a kind of medicine, while nowadays people drink tea daily. Longjing, Pu’er, Wulong and Tieguanyin are all famous tea. Thanks to the climate and soil in Fujian, Zhejiang and Yunnan, tea is produced mainly in these provinces. The word for tea in different languages came from Chinese, like ‘cha’i’ in Russian. And the Japanese character for tea is written exactly the same as it is in Chinese. Now, tea culture is a part of Chinese culture, which includes tea planting, tea leaf picking, tea making, tea drinking and so on.

Here are some answers. You know those Hollywood films where the foreigner is living a nice, easy, comfortable life in another country? Well, forget it — that’s not how it is. You have to do all kinds of things like finding somewhere to live, paying bills, and so on. These things aren’t easy and they take time. After a few weeks I start to miss all kinds of things (and people) from back home. The special food, those TV programmes, and the friends whom I used to hang out with. Well, I know it’s a phase I have to go through. I hope the homesickness won’t last forever. Before I came, I thought my French was pretty good. But now I know I’m not good enough. People talk to me in the way they talk to each other — fast! There’s new vocabulary which you have to pick up — the first time I went to a hairdresser, I didn’t know what to say! Speaking French all day wears me out. Often, at night, I’ll watch anything on TV in English! Anything! 21．What does Becca think of her life in France? A．It’s really fun and nice.

Here is a story about a student taking the imperial examination. One day, on his way to the capital to sit the final imperial examination, a young man spent a night at an old temple. After supper, he had an interesting conversation with an old monk (和尚) there. The monk said that people thought everything in the world is either male or female, and he asked his guest how to tell the male of seawater or trees from the female. The young man thought it over but couldn’t come up with an answer. The monk then explained that for the seawater, billows (巨浪) are male and waves are female because males are usually bigger than females. For trees, the pine (松) tree is male because the Chinese character for it contains a male radical (部首), and the plum（梅子) tree is female because it has a female component (成分) in the word. The student found the answer interesting but not very excellent. However, it happened that the title of the thesis (论文) for the imperial examination that year was On the Gender of All Things in the World. So, the student quoted what the monk said in his thesis. Surprisingly, he not only passed the examination but came in first. The young man was so grateful to the old monk that he later presented the man with a tablet (匾) with the words, “To chat with you for one night is better than to study for 10 years.” 24．How did the writer start the passage? A．By introducing the background of the story. B．By telling the history of the imperial examination. C．Вy explaining the role of the imperial examination. D．By showing the background of the imperial examination. 25．What did the student think of what the monk said? A．He didn’t all agree with the monk. B．He completely agreed with the monk. C．He agreed none of what the monk said. D．He thought what the monk said was boring. 26．What can we infer from the passage? A．It’s difficult for us to succeed without the help of others. B．The more you communicate with others, the easier it is to succeed. C．It’s hard for people to become a government official in feudal China. D．Communicating with wise people can help us get knowledge better. 【答案】24．A 25．A 26．D 【导语】本文讲述了和尚与学子对话，帮助学子最终取得成功的经历。 24．推理判断题。根据“Here is a story about a student taking the imperial examination.”可知文章开篇先介绍了科举制度，随后引入了故事情节，因此是通过介绍故事背景来开始的文章。故选A。 25．推理判断题。根据“The student found the answer interesting but not very excellent.”可知学生对和尚的观点部分认同，但并不是完全满意，故选A。 26．推理判断题。本文讲述了和尚与学子对话，帮助学子最终取得成功的经历，体现了与智者沟通能够帮助人更好地获取知识的核心思想，故选D。 C From a black bear and a wild pig to a snake and a bee’s nest, from landslides and thunderstorms to getting lost and car accidents, Zhou You has met various difficulties during his trips.

Often talked about in relation to sports, mental toughness is characterized by the ability to always perform well under stress. Research has shown that it is also a useful quality (品质) for students, with benefits for school achievement, classroom behavior, and relationships with others. However, mental toughness is often misunderstood. It is sometimes related to hiding your feelings, or not acknowledging (承认) your weaknesses, which can harm student well-being, as well as school performance and socializing. So, what actually is mental toughness, and how can it be developed in schools? Students who show mental toughness are aware of and able to control their emotions. This helps them to think clearly under stress, on the day of exams for example. One way to help with this is to encourage students to talk to themselves in a positive and helpful way. Students may be upset if they don’t do as well on a task as they hoped. By asking themselves questions, such as “What would I do differently next time?”, they can stop focusing on the negatives and direct their attention towards improving in the future. Mental toughness means asking for help. Many students are too ashamed to do it, for fear they would show weakness by acknowledging they don’t understand something. However, others actually consider it a positive quality. Recognizing when they are experiencing difficulties takes courage for students, but it also shows a willingness to learn and get better. Mental toughness is also about being open to learning, not being a know-it-all. Over time, the students who grow the most are those who like to explore things, looking for answers in books, online, or by paying attention to what’s happening around them. They also work together, helping each other with challenges. What’s more, mental toughness involves having a strong sense of self-belief and confidence in one’s abilities. Mentally tough students have a clear idea of their goals, and their wills to achieve them are unwavering. They are not easily influenced by others’ opinions and are willing to step outside of their comfort zone to reach their goals. To create mentally tough students and classrooms, it is important for teachers themselves to be role models. Teachers can develop their mental toughness in much the same way as students. In order to develop mental toughness, both students and teachers should recognize that it is about having positive behaviors and attitudes that help them learn and improve. 31．You were most probably being mentally tough when ________ . A．you kept your sadness inside without telling others B．you acted as if you were doing well with everything C．you received praise for answering a difficult question D．you managed your nervousness to make a great speech 32．The word “unwavering” in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to________ .

B．Mentally tough students doubt their abilities when facing failure. C．Mentally tough students have curiosity about the world around them.

A．Maintain a strict and authoritative classroom environment. B．Avoid making mistakes in front of students. C．Focus only on academic performance and achievement. D．Show positive behaviors and attitudes. 35．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A．Why Is Mental Toughness a Key to Success?

D．Who Should Be Responsible for Developing Mental Toughness? 【答案】31．D 32．A 33．C 34．D 35．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍了心理韧性的概念以及如何在学校培养心理韧性。 31．推理判断题。根据第一段“mental toughness is characterized by the ability to always perform well under stress.”可知，心理韧性的特点是在压力之下始终表现良好的能力。由此推断选项D“你控制了自己的紧张情绪，发表了精彩的演讲”符合这一特征，故选D。 32．词句猜测题。根据第七段“They are not easily influenced by others’ opinions”可知，他们不容易被他人的意见所影响，所以unwavering表示“不动摇的”，与unshakeable同义，故选A。 33．细节理解题。根据第六段“Mental toughness is also about being open to learning, not being a know-it-all. Over time, the students who grow the most are those who like to explore things, looking for answers in books, online, or by paying attention to what’s happening around them.”可知，心理韧性也体现在开放学习上，乐于探索事物，所以心理坚韧的学生对周围世界充满好奇，故选C。 34．细节理解题。根据最后一段“To create mentally tough students and classrooms, it is important for teachers themselves to be role models...

Here are some answers. You know those Hollywood films where the foreigner is living a nice, easy, comfortable life in another country? Well, forget it — that’s not how it is. You have to do all kinds of things like finding somewhere to live, paying bills, and so on. These things aren’t easy and they take time. After a few weeks I start to miss all kinds of things (and people) from back home. The special food, those TV programmes, and the friends whom I used to hang out with. Well, I know it’s a phase I have to go through. I hope the homesickness won’t last forever. Before I came, I thought my French was pretty good. But now I know I’m not good enough. People talk to me in the way they talk to each other — fast! There’s new vocabulary which you have to pick up — the first time I went to a hairdresser, I didn’t know what to say! Speaking French all day wears me out. Often, at night, I’ll watch anything on TV in English! Anything! 21．What does Becca think of her life in France? A．It’s really fun and nice.

Here is a story about a student taking the imperial examination. One day, on his way to the capital to sit the final imperial examination, a young man spent a night at an old temple. After supper, he had an interesting conversation with an old monk (和尚) there. The monk said that people thought everything in the world is either male or female, and he asked his guest how to tell the male of seawater or trees from the female. The young man thought it over but couldn’t come up with an answer. The monk then explained that for the seawater, billows (巨浪) are male and waves are female because males are usually bigger than females. For trees, the pine (松) tree is male because the Chinese character for it contains a male radical (部首), and the plum（梅子) tree is female because it has a female component (成分) in the word. The student found the answer interesting but not very excellent. However, it happened that the title of the thesis (论文) for the imperial examination that year was On the Gender of All Things in the World. So, the student quoted what the monk said in his thesis. Surprisingly, he not only passed the examination but came in first. The young man was so grateful to the old monk that he later presented the man with a tablet (匾) with the words, “To chat with you for one night is better than to study for 10 years.” 24．How did the writer start the passage? A．By introducing the background of the story. B．By telling the history of the imperial examination. C．Вy explaining the role of the imperial examination. D．By showing the background of the imperial examination. 25．What did the student think of what the monk said? A．He didn’t all agree with the monk. B．He completely agreed with the monk. C．He agreed none of what the monk said. D．He thought what the monk said was boring. 26．What can we infer from the passage? A．It’s difficult for us to succeed without the help of others. B．The more you communicate with others, the easier it is to succeed. C．It’s hard for people to become a government official in feudal China. D．Communicating with wise people can help us get knowledge better. C From a black bear and a wild pig to a snake and a bee’s nest, from landslides and thunderstorms to getting lost and car accidents, Zhou You has met various difficulties during his trips. He describes himself as someone who looks dirty in poor clothes with two cameras. However, when he sees a plant, his eyes light up. Zhou lives a lonely life each year from April to October. He is never home, either taking photos of plants in the mountains or on his way to find plants. As for the rest of year, he never leaves his chair at home, writing down the information about plants that he’s got from his trips for books. The 60-year-old is a retired professor of a university in Jilin province. His decades of hard work has recently turned into a book series, Atlas of Medicinal Plant Recourse in the Northeast of China, which is made up of nine books about over 1,800 wild medicinal plants with 5.5 million words and over 13,000 photos. It has been well known as Northeast China’s modern version (版本) of Bencao Gangmu, an encyclopedic work of medicine and natural history, by Li Shizhen from the Ming Dynasty. During his first trip to Changbai Mountain, he was deeply impressed by its beauty. He started to collect information about plants in his 20s when he realized that the information of many plant species was incomplete. Since then, he has decided to visit the mountain and take photos of the plants and their environment to fill in the missing parts. The book series is believed to have important reference (参考) value for experts who study medicinal plants in Northeast China and it provides first-hand information for the development, usage and protection of the plants in the area. 27．What do we know about Zhou You’s work from the first two paragraphs?

B．To praise Zhou You’s famous book and his great life achievements. C．To show the influence of Zhou’s book on the research of medicinal plants. D．To explain why people accept Zhou You’s information about medicinal plants. 30．What can we learn from Professor Zhou? A．It’s never too old to learn. B．The early bird catches the worm. C．One can achieve success on his own. D．Nothing is impossible to a willing heart. D Have you heard of mental toughness? Often talked about in relation to sports, mental toughness is characterized by the ability to always perform well under stress. Research has shown that it is also a useful quality (品质) for students, with benefits for school achievement, classroom behavior, and relationships with others. However, mental toughness is often misunderstood. It is sometimes related to hiding your feelings, or not acknowledging (承认) your weaknesses, which can harm student well-being, as well as school performance and socializing. So, what actually is mental toughness, and how can it be developed in schools? Students who show mental toughness are aware of and able to control their emotions. This helps them to think clearly under stress, on the day of exams for example. One way to help with this is to encourage students to talk to themselves in a positive and helpful way. Students may be upset if they don’t do as well on a task as they hoped. By asking themselves questions, such as “What would I do differently next time?”, they can stop focusing on the negatives and direct their attention towards improving in the future. Mental toughness means asking for help. Many students are too ashamed to do it, for fear they would show weakness by acknowledging they don’t understand something. However, others actually consider it a positive quality. Recognizing when they are experiencing difficulties takes courage for students, but it also shows a willingness to learn and get better. Mental toughness is also about being open to learning, not being a know-it-all. Over time, the students who grow the most are those who like to explore things, looking for answers in books, online, or by paying attention to what’s happening around them. They also work together, helping each other with challenges. What’s more, mental toughness involves having a strong sense of self-belief and confidence in one’s abilities. Mentally tough students have a clear idea of their goals, and their wills to achieve them are unwavering. They are not easily influenced by others’ opinions and are willing to step outside of their comfort zone to reach their goals. To create mentally tough students and classrooms, it is important for teachers themselves to be role models. Teachers can develop their mental toughness in much the same way as students. In order to develop mental toughness, both students and teachers should recognize that it is about having positive behaviors and attitudes that help them learn and improve. 31．You were most probably being mentally tough when ________ . A．you kept your sadness inside without telling others B．you acted as if you were doing well with everything C．you received praise for answering a difficult question D．you managed your nervousness to make a great speech 32．The word “unwavering” in Paragraph 7 is closest in meaning to________ .

B．Mentally tough students doubt their abilities when facing failure. C．Mentally tough students have curiosity about the world around them. D．High-performing students are more likely to have a good attitude to learning. 34．According to the passage, what is important for teachers to do in order to develop mental toughness in their students? A．Maintain a strict and authoritative classroom environment. B．Avoid making mistakes in front of students. C．Focus only on academic performance and achievement. D．Show positive behaviors and attitudes. 35．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage? A．Why Is Mental Toughness a Key to Success?

D．Who Should Be Responsible for Developing Mental Toughness? （二）阅读短文，并从下面方框的六个句子中选择五个还原到文中，使原文的意思完整、连贯。 Restaurants are changing with new technology.
