Inside the bag were clothes, some food, a little money and the map. The son set out on his long journey the next day. He had to travel across forests, rivers and mountains. Along the way, he met a lot of people. Some helped him with food, and some with a place to live. He also met robbers (强盗) who tried to rob him but failed. He saw changing landscapes (风景) and experienced different kinds of weather. Finally, after a long year, he reached the place of treasure.

They don’t know how to start the conversation (交谈) again if they don’t talk with their friends for a long time. Many people want to get in touch with old friends, but they are scared to do so. Scientists from colleges in Canada and the UK did a study among 2,500 people. They wondered how people felt about the idea of getting in touch with old friends. The study shows over ninety percent of the people don’t call their old friends. 70% of them are not willing to call their friends first, because they worry that their old friends won’t want to hear from them or they are too busy to talk with them. Some people even think getting in touch with their old friends is as hard as talking to strange people. Lara Aknin, one of the scientists, said, “Most people fear they won’t have much to talk about with their old friends since they have different lifestyles and different interests now. But in fact, these differences can be helpful for people to get close to each other. After sharing something new and interesting, they won’t feel embarrassed (尴尬的) at all. Instead, they know each other better.” In fact, most of people’s worries are just useless. If you do get in touch with an old friend, you will be surprised to find that he or she is also looking forward to hearing from you. So, why not pick up your phone and give your old friend a call? 8. What is the study mainly about? A. How to get in touch with old friends. B. The reasons for getting in touch with old friends. C. People’s feelings about getting in touch with old friends. 9 Why don’t some people want to call their old friends first? A. Because they don’t care about their old friends at all. B. Because they have nothing to say to their old friends. C. Because they don’t want to make trouble for their old friends. 10. What does the underlined word “them” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. The old friends. B. The strange people. C. The people who took part in the study. 11. What does the writer want to tell us? A. It’s important to have some good friends. B. Try to get in touch with your old friends often. C. We should make as many new friends as possible. 【答案】8. C 9. C 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文通过介绍一项关于联系老朋友的研究，探讨了人们在联系老朋友时的感受和顾虑，并鼓励人们克服这些障碍，主动与老朋友取得联系。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据“They wondered how people felt about the idea of getting in touch with old friends.” 可知，这表明研究主要关注的是人们对于联系老朋友的感受。故选C。 【9题详解】 细节理解题。根据“70% of them are not willing to call their friends first, because they worry that their old friends won’t want to hear from them or they are too busy to talk with them.” 可知，人们不愿意首先联系老朋友是因为他们担心给老朋友添麻烦。故选C。 【10题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“Some people even think getting in touch with their old friends is as hard as talking to strange people.” 和“70% of them are not willing to call their friends”可知，这里的“them”指的是参与这项研究的人。故选C。 【11题详解】 细节理解题。根据“So, why not pick up your phone and give your old friend a call?” 可知，作者希望读者能够主动联系老朋友。故选B。 第二节 （共4小题；每小题2分，满分8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。 Do you like to move with music?

He said it was a kind of language that people used around the world—English. These songs interested me. Sitting on the floor of my room, I started reading every word I heard in the song and trying to sing it. I felt quite angry at that time because I had no idea what the words meant. Over time, the interest let me find an online app. It could translate (翻译) the words in cartoon shows and movies from English to Chinese. At that moment I learned that there were no more problems for me. I was lost in learning the new language. I listened to the English songs many times until I was able to sing them. Slowly, I could understand the simple lyrics, and then I could even understand the words in video games. For me, that was very meaningful. When I went to the primary school, I could learn English more easily. This was the result of my own hard work in English. Now, after studying English for fourteen years, I find that my thoughts about it have changed a lot. In the beginning, I was just a kid who thought the language was fun and interesting. Now, this language helps me learn about the world and even myself better. It also helps me think about things in many ways. 36.

At that time, my father liked to listen to songs. The lyrics (歌词) of the songs were different from my favorite ones, I asked him what the songs meant. He said it was a kind of language that people used around the world—English. These songs interested me. Sitting on the floor of my room, I started reading every word I heard in the song and trying to sing it. I felt quite angry at that time because I had no idea what the words meant. Over time, the interest let me find an online app. It could translate (翻译) the words in cartoon shows and movies from English to Chinese. At that moment I learned that there were no more problems for me. I was lost in learning the new language. I listened to the English songs many times until I was able to sing them. Slowly, I could understand the simple lyrics, and then I could even understand the words in video games. For me, that was very meaningful. When I went to the primary school, I could learn English more easily. This was the result of my own hard work in English. Now, after studying English for fourteen years, I find that my thoughts about it have changed a lot. In the beginning, I was just a kid who thought the language was fun and interesting. Now, this language helps me learn about the world and even myself better. It also helps me think about things in many ways. 36.
