Make a difference to the environment
It is often hard to determine whether the food we eat is eco-friendly or not. However, it is clear that some types of food have a 1 (big) environmental impact than others. What can we do in our everyday lives to make a difference?
Firstly, we should avoid food that has travelled a long way. Food transport is a big source of CO₂, 2 causes global warming. In other words, it is best to eat food that 3 (produce) locally. Secondly, we should eat less fast food. 4 it is very convenient, fast food has become very popular, but it is unfortunately very bad for the environment. Most takeaway containers will probably end up in the rubbish dump. However, we can encourage restaurants 5 (use) recycled materials to pack their meals. Thirdly, we should avoid those types of food 6 cause huge environmental stress. For example, now rain forests around the world 7 (burn) down to make room for cattle farms. To protect the rainforest, we 8 eat less beef and avoid food that contains palm oil.
Pollution and climate change are global problems, so we all need to work together. The good news is 9 every little bit counts. By using our resources 10 a more efficient way, we can save a lot of money at the same time as we save the environment.

2.考查定语从句。句意:食品运输是导致全球变暖的二氧化碳的主要来源。分析句子可知,句子为非限制性定语从句,先行词为“CO₂”,指物,在从句中作主语,故应用关系代词“which”引导从句。故填which。
3.考查时态和语态。句意:换句话说,最好吃当地生产的食物。根据句意和句中“is”可知,句子陈述的是客观事实,“that”代指先行词“food”,和“produce”为被动关系,故句子应用一般现在时的被动语态,“food”和“is”连用,“produce”的过去分词为“produced”,故空格处应填“is produced”。故填is produced。
4.考查原因状语从句。句意:因为它非常方便,快餐变得非常流行,但不幸的是,它对环境非常不利。分析句子可知,句子为原因状语从句,“非常方便”是“快餐变得非常流行”的原因,应用“Because”引导从句,意为“因为”,句首单词首字母大写。故填Because。
5.考查固定短语。句意:然而,我们可以鼓励餐馆使用可回收材料来包装他们的饭菜。分析句子可知,句中涉及固定短语“encourage sb. to do sth.”,意为“鼓励某人做某事”,故空格处应用“to use”。故填to use。
6.考查定语从句。句意:第三,我们应该避免那些造成巨大环境压力的食物。分析句子可知,句子为限制性定语从句,先行词为“those types of food”,指物,在从句中作主语,故应用关系代词“which”或“that”引导从句。故填that/which。
7.考查时态和语态。句意:例如,现在世界各地的雨林正在被烧毁,为养牛场腾出空间。根据句意和句中“now”可知,句子为现在进行时,“rain forests”和“burn”为被动关系,故句子应用现在进行时的被动语态,“rain forests”和“are”连用,“burn”的过去分词为“burned”,故空格处应填“are being burned”。故填are being burned。
8.考查情态动词。句意:为了保护雨林,我们应该少吃牛肉,避免食用含有棕榈油的食物。分析句子可知,“eat”为动词原形,空格处应用情态动词,根据句意可知,应用“should”,意为“应该”。故填should。
9.考查表语从句。句意:好消息是,每一点点努力都很重要。分析句子可知,句子为表语从句,空格处单词引导从句,从句中不缺少成分,意义完整,故应用“that”引导从句。故填that。
10.考查固定短语。句意:通过更有效地利用我们的资源,我们可以在保护环境的同时节省大量资金。分析句子可知,句中涉及固定短语“in+adj.+way”,意为“以……的方式”,故空格处应用“in”。故填in。

China is widely known for its ancient civilisation which has continued all the way through into modern times, despite the many ups and downs in its history. There are many reasons why this has been possible, but one of the main 11 has been the Chinese writing system.
At the beginning, written Chinese was a picture-based language. It 12 back several thousand years to the use of longgu— animal bones and shells (壳) on which symbols were carved by ancient Chinese people. Some of the ancient symbols can still be 13 in today’ s hanzi.
By the Shang Dynasty, these symbols had become a well-developed writing system. Over the years, the system developed into different 14 , as it was a time when people were divided geographically, leading to many varieties of dialects (方言) and characters. This, however, changed under Emperor Qinshihuang of the Qin Dynasty.
Emperor Qinshihuang unified (统一) the seven major states into one country where the Chinese writing system began to develop in one 15 . That writing system was 16 to connecting the Chinese people and culture. Even today, no matter where Chinese people live or what dialect they speak, they can all still communicate in writing.
Written Chinese has also become an important means by which China’s 17 is connected with its past. People in modern times can read the classic 18 written by the Chinese in ancient times. The high 19 for the Chinese writing system can be seen in the development of Chinese characters as an art form, known as Chinese calligraphy, which has become an important part of Chinese culture.
Today, the Chinese writing system is still an important part of Chinese culture. As China plays a greater role in global affairs, an increasing number of international students are beginning to appreciate China's culture and history through this 20 language.

III. Reading Comprehension (45分)
Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A. B.C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context
Travel is not just about visiting new places, but also about understanding the world around us and reflecting on our own lives. In the UK, travel is an enriching life experience, because it is not simply a pursuit of 21 but also “character-building”.
Most of the people I know here at university experience the desire to travel and escape the burden on us. But I don’t think, as UK students, we can blame our addiction to international travel simply on a(n) 22 life. Yes, I have a lot to handle and it’s a fine 23 act managing my part-time job, my degree and my social life to a perfect level. In a truly open world, we can get anywhere, see anything and experience every culture under the sun, at the click of a button, the purchase of a ticket.
Many people I met while working in China were surprised at the number of countries I’d travelled to. Compared to friends and family, I consider myself vastly 24 . I’ve never set foot across the pond in the US and Canada, let alone South America and even within Europe my checklist of destinations is far from 25 . I was also met by 26 at how little travelling I had done within my own borders. This was something I had not really considered before. How much of my own country had I really seen and experienced? To those from a place as vast and varied as China, Britain was really so small in comparison, and so to have spent 20 years there and not seen every part of it was quite surprising.
I had a(n) 27 with a Chinese colleague over the reasoning behind our use of golden Cotswold stone which sounds dull for most people. As a student of history, I found anything historical fascinating. 28 , it was not the stone within British cities I found interesting. What was curious was that it was something I had never even considered, and yet here was someone 29 something I had simply taken for granted.
We continued our discussion, yet I was left embarrassed that I could not answer her question. In China, as well as a wealth of new culture that 30 me, I discovered that there were parts of the UK’s culture, history, the very structure of my identity that were so different, so unique from China that I also gained a newly found interest in my own 31 .
In this respect, travelling enables you with two things. Firstly, you develop a fascination with new cultures, understanding customs, experiencing cuisines and 32 the sights and smells of every new city. For many companies, this 33 to new locations is seen as tremendous in your personal resume. But besides increased 34 , through international, cross-cultural conversations, you develop an interest in your own history, culture, and customs. You return to your home filled with an understanding of other people’s fascination with it and your own sense of love for its 35 .

Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
A
One of the advantaged of social media is that we get to see aspects of people’s lives that can be rather surprising. In fact, some of the videos that get shared remind us of the many hidden— and not-so-hidden — talents that are out there.
Recently a video was shared of a construction worker taking a break and treating his co-workers to a beautiful musical interlude (插曲) in their busy day. Archive could, a painter working for a specialized painting company in Edmonton, was carrying out a job in front of a library. Looking in the window, one of his workmates noticed there was a public piano inside.
Gould explained to CTV News that his workmates were aware that he’d played the piano for years, but he’d never been able to showcase his talents. Therefore on the first day on site, could sat down in his paint-stained work clothes to play for his workmates.
“It was so heart melting. I love classical music to begin with. Seeing him playing exceptionally well, I was totally touched,” his work mate, Kerrie bates, shared her reaction to Gould’s performance. As for could, he was also delighted to have the opportunity to show his workmates that he was indeed able to play the piano.
The performance was shared online, where it notched up an impressive number of views. And could come up with why he thought the video had become so popular, “I think half the reason that the video blew up is that I look like a construction worker. No one expects a construction worker to just demonstrate some classical music like it’s nothing.”
However, his performance is not just a lesson in looking beyond a person’s outward appearance, It also reminds us that we should develop our talents gradually and enjoy them as and when we can, While we might not all be able to become professional pianists or singers, there’s so much joy to be had in having a passion and sharing it with others.
36.What role does social media play according to the first paragraph?
A.A platform for people to show talents.
B.Means of communication and expression.
C.Place for people to share common interest.
D.A tool to remind us of some important things.
37.How did Kerrie bates react to Gould’s performance?
A.She considered it was incredible.
B.She thought it held lasting artistic valued,
C.She found it was more accessible to workers.
D.She believed it deserved a great deal of fame.
38.What does the underlined phrase “notched up” in paragraph 5 probably mean?
A.Reserved. B.Required. C.Convinced. D.Earned.
39.What does Gould’s story convey?
A.The early bird catches the worm. B.Never judge a book by its cover.
C.Actions speak louder than words. D.Nothing is difficult to a willing heart,
【答案】36.A 37.A 38.D 39.B
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了一位名叫Archive Gould的建筑工人在工作期间,利用休息时间弹奏钢琴,给同事们带来了惊喜和享受的故事。
36.细节理解题。根据文章第一段“One of the advantaged of social media is that we get to see aspects of people’s lives that can be rather surprising. In fact, some of the videos that get shared remind us of the many hidden— and not-so-hidden — talents that are out there.(社交媒体的一个优势是,我们能够看到人们生活中那些可能相当令人惊讶的方面。事实上,一些被分享的视频提醒我们,世界上存在着许多隐藏或不那么隐藏的人才)”可知,社交媒体为人们提供了一个展示才华的平台。故选A。
37.细节理解题。根据文章第四段““It was so heart melting. I love classical music to begin with. Seeing him playing exceptionally well, I was totally touched,” his work mate, Kerrie bates, shared her reaction to Gould’s performance.(“太让人心动了。我本来就喜欢古典音乐。看到他弹得如此出色,我完全被感动了,”他的同事Kerrie Bates分享了她对Gould表演的反应)”可知,Kerrie Bates认为Gould的表演令人难以置信,非常出色。故选A。
38.词义猜测题。根据划线单词所在句“The performance was shared online, where it notched up an impressive number of views.(这段表演被分享到了网上, notched up令人印象深刻的观看次数)”的句子结构可知,“where it notched up an impressive number of views”是定语从句,修饰先行词“online”,且该定语从句中缺少谓语,所以“notched up”在此处作谓语,能够和“views”搭配。根据句意可知,意为“获得了”令人印象深刻的观看次数。选项D“earned”,意为“获得”,符合句意。故选D。
39.推理判断题。根据文章内容可知,文章提到Gould穿着沾满油漆的工作服在休息时间弹奏钢琴,他的同事们非常惊讶于他弹得如此出色。Gould认为视频走红的原因是他看起来像个建筑工人,没人期望一个建筑工人能演奏古典音乐。由此推知,Gould的故事传达了不要以貌取人的道理,人们不能仅仅根据外表来判断一个人的能力或才华。故选B。

C
A peer is a person who is about the same age as you. Peers affect your life, whether you know it or not, just by spending time with you.
Peers can have a good effect on one another. Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in solar system. Maybe you got others excited about your new favorite book and now everyone’s reading it.
However, sometimes peers affect one another in another way. For example, one kid in school might try to get another to cut class with him, your soccer friend might try to persuade you to be mean to another player and never pass her the ball, or a kid in the neighborhood might want you to steal things with him.
Some kids give in to peer pressure because they want to be liked, to fit in, or because they worry that other kids may make fun of them if they don’t go along with the group. Others may go along because they are curious to try something new that others are doing. The idea that “everyone’ s doing it’ may influence some kids to leave their better judgments or their common senses behind.
Peer pressure can be extremely strong and hard to get rid of. Experiments have shown how peer pressure can influence someone to change her/ his mind from what she/ he knows for sure is a correct answer to the incorrect answer—just because everyone else gives the incorrect answer! That holds true for people of any age in peer pressure situations.
It can be hard to walk away from peer pressure, but it can be done. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do. Inner strength and self-confidence can help you stand firm, walk away and resist doing something when you know better.
43.The writer will NOT agree that ________.
A.only children change their correct answers under peer pressure.
B.Peers will believe in themselves if other peers agree with them.
C.peers have effect on each other whether the effect is good or not.
D.Peer pressure is very strong and difficult for people to get rid of.
44.The writer intends to ________ by writing the passage.
A.encourage people to follow others’ opinions.
B.warn people to stay away from their peers.
C.tell people it is hard to be away from peer pressure.
D.advise people to do the right despite peer pressure.
45.All of the following aspects are concerned in the passage EXCEPT ________.
A.The definition of the peer and how it affects life.
B.The reason why kids have stronger peer pressure.
C.The way peers influence each other in daily life.
D.The way peer pressure influences our judgment.
46.What is the passage mainly about?
A.Peer pressure has a good effect. B.Peer pressure is hard to resist.
C.Children give in to peer pressure. D.Peer pressure always does harm.
【答案】43.A 44.D 45.B 46.B
【导语】本文是说明文。文章主要阐述了同龄人对个体生活的影响,包括积极和消极两方面,并分析了同龄人压力产生的原因、影响以及应对方法。
43.细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“Peer pressure can be extremely strong and hard to get rid of. Experiments have shown how peer pressure can influence someone to change her/ his mind from what she/ he knows for sure is a correct answer to the incorrect answer— just because everyone else gives the incorrect answer! That holds true for people of any age in peer pressure situations.(同伴压力可能极其强烈且难以摆脱。实验已经表明,同伴压力如何影响一个人,使他/她从自己确信的正确答案改为错误的答案——仅仅因为其他人都给出了错误的答案!这在任何年龄段的人面对同伴压力时都同样适用)”可知,作者不同意只有孩子在同辈压力下才会改变正确答案,因为在任何年龄段的人面对同伴压力时都同样适用。故选A项。
44.推理判断题。根据最后一段“It can be hard to walk away from peer pressure, but it can be done. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do. Inner strength and self-confidence can help you stand firm, walk away and resist doing something when you know better.(摆脱同伴压力可能很难,但并非不可能。关注自己对于对错的感受和信念,可以帮助你知道正确的做法。内心的力量和自信可以帮助你坚定立场,走开并拒绝做你知道不对的事情)”以及纵观全文可知,作者想通过写这篇文章来建议人们在同辈压力下做正确的事。故选D项。
45.细节理解题。根据第一段“A peer is a person who is about the same age as you. Peers affect your life, whether you know it or not, just by spending time with you.(同龄人是指与你年龄相仿的人。无论你是否意识到,同龄人都会通过与你的相处而影响你的生活)”可知,A项“同伴的定义及其对生活的影响”被提及,根据第二段“Peers can have a good effect on one another.”以及第三段“However, sometimes peers affect one another in another way.(然而,有时候同龄人之间也会以另一种方式相互影响)”可知,C项“同龄人在日常生活中相互影响的方式”被提及,根据倒数第三段“Some kids give in to peer pressure because they want to be liked, to fit in, or because they worry that other kids may make fun of them if they don’t go along with the group. Others may go along because they are curious to try something new that others are doing. The idea that “everyone’ s doing it’ may influence some kids to leave their better judgments or their common senses behind.(一些孩子会屈服于同伴压力,因为他们想要被喜欢,想要融入群体,或者担心如果不随波逐流,其他孩子会嘲笑他们。另一些人可能会因为好奇而尝试别人正在做的新事物。那种“大家都在做”的想法可能会让一些孩子放弃自己的判断力或常识)”可知,D项“同伴压力影响我们判断的方式”被提及,B项“孩子们有更大的同伴压力的原因”文中没有提及。故选B项。
46.主旨大意题。根据第一段“A peer is a person who is about the same age as you. Peers affect your life, whether you know it or not, just by spending time with you.(同龄人是指与你年龄相仿的人。无论你是否意识到,同龄人都会通过与你的相处而影响你的生活)”以及最后一段“It can be hard to walk away from peer pressure, but it can be done.(摆脱同伴压力可能很难,但并非不可能)”以及纵观全文可知,本文主要讲述了同龄人对个体生活的影响,包括积极和消极两方面,所以同辈压力是难以抗拒的。故选B项。

【答案】Don’t eat anything between two meals, or it’ll affect your appetite.

69.街口的小店提供各种各样的生活必需品,价格在10元到100元不等。(range)
【答案】The corner shop offers various life necessities, which range/(ranging ) in price from 10 yuan to100 yuan.
【详解】考查固定短语、非谓语动词、定语从句。“街口的小店”用“the small shop at the street corner”来表达;“各种各样的”常用短语“a variety of”或“various”;“生活必需品”可译为“daily necessities”;“在…… 到…… 之间不等”用短语“range from...to...”,此处“价格在10元到100元不等”是定语从句,修饰前面的名词life necessities,使用关系代词which引导定语从句。此处也可以使用非谓语动词做定语表达,life necessities与range是逻辑上的主谓关系,所以用现在分词形式ranging,故翻译为The corner shop offers various life necessities, which range/(ranging ) in price from 10 yuan to100 yuan.

Make a difference to the environment
It is often hard to determine whether the food we eat is eco-friendly or not. However, it is clear that some types of food have a 1 (big) environmental impact than others. What can we do in our everyday lives to make a difference?
Firstly, we should avoid food that has travelled a long way. Food transport is a big source of CO₂, 2 causes global warming. In other words, it is best to eat food that 3 (produce) locally. Secondly, we should eat less fast food. 4 it is very convenient, fast food has become very popular, but it is unfortunately very bad for the environment. Most takeaway containers will probably end up in the rubbish dump. However, we can encourage restaurants 5 (use) recycled materials to pack their meals. Thirdly, we should avoid those types of food 6 cause huge environmental stress. For example, now rain forests around the world 7 (burn) down to make room for cattle farms. To protect the rainforest, we 8 eat less beef and avoid food that contains palm oil.
Pollution and climate change are global problems, so we all need to work together. The good news is 9 every little bit counts. By using our resources 10 a more efficient way, we can save a lot of money at the same time as we save the environment.

China is widely known for its ancient civilisation which has continued all the way through into modern times, despite the many ups and downs in its history. There are many reasons why this has been possible, but one of the main 11 has been the Chinese writing system.
At the beginning, written Chinese was a picture-based language. It 12 back several thousand years to the use of longgu— animal bones and shells (壳) on which symbols were carved by ancient Chinese people. Some of the ancient symbols can still be 13 in today’ s hanzi.
By the Shang Dynasty, these symbols had become a well-developed writing system. Over the years, the system developed into different 14 , as it was a time when people were divided geographically, leading to many varieties of dialects (方言) and characters. This, however, changed under Emperor Qinshihuang of the Qin Dynasty.
Emperor Qinshihuang unified (统一) the seven major states into one country where the Chinese writing system began to develop in one 15 . That writing system was 16 to connecting the Chinese people and culture. Even today, no matter where Chinese people live or what dialect they speak, they can all still communicate in writing.
Written Chinese has also become an important means by which China’s 17 is connected with its past. People in modern times can read the classic 18 written by the Chinese in ancient times. The high 19 for the Chinese writing system can be seen in the development of Chinese characters as an art form, known as Chinese calligraphy, which has become an important part of Chinese culture.
Today, the Chinese writing system is still an important part of Chinese culture. As China plays a greater role in global affairs, an increasing number of international students are beginning to appreciate China's culture and history through this 20 language.
III. Reading Comprehension (45分)
Section A
Directions: For each blank in the following passage there are four words or phrases marked A. B.C and D. Fill in each blank with the word or phrase that best fits the context
Travel is not just about visiting new places, but also about understanding the world around us and reflecting on our own lives. In the UK, travel is an enriching life experience, because it is not simply a pursuit of 21 but also “character-building”.
Most of the people I know here at university experience the desire to travel and escape the burden on us. But I don’t think, as UK students, we can blame our addiction to international travel simply on a(n) 22 life. Yes, I have a lot to handle and it’s a fine 23 act managing my part-time job, my degree and my social life to a perfect level. In a truly open world, we can get anywhere, see anything and experience every culture under the sun, at the click of a button, the purchase of a ticket.
Many people I met while working in China were surprised at the number of countries I’d travelled to. Compared to friends and family, I consider myself vastly 24 . I’ve never set foot across the pond in the US and Canada, let alone South America and even within Europe my checklist of destinations is far from 25 . I was also met by 26 at how little travelling I had done within my own borders. This was something I had not really considered before. How much of my own country had I really seen and experienced? To those from a place as vast and varied as China, Britain was really so small in comparison, and so to have spent 20 years there and not seen every part of it was quite surprising.
I had a(n) 27 with a Chinese colleague over the reasoning behind our use of golden Cotswold stone which sounds dull for most people. As a student of history, I found anything historical fascinating. 28 , it was not the stone within British cities I found interesting. What was curious was that it was something I had never even considered, and yet here was someone 29 something I had simply taken for granted.
We continued our discussion, yet I was left embarrassed that I could not answer her question. In China, as well as a wealth of new culture that 30 me, I discovered that there were parts of the UK’s culture, history, the very structure of my identity that were so different, so unique from China that I also gained a newly found interest in my own 31 .
In this respect, travelling enables you with two things. Firstly, you develop a fascination with new cultures, understanding customs, experiencing cuisines and 32 the sights and smells of every new city. For many companies, this 33 to new locations is seen as tremendous in your personal resume. But besides increased 34 , through international, cross-cultural conversations, you develop an interest in your own history, culture, and customs. You return to your home filled with an understanding of other people’s fascination with it and your own sense of love for its 35 .

Section B
Directions: Read the following three passages. Each passage is followed by several questions or unfinished statements. For each of them there are four choices marked A, B, C and D. Choose the one that fits best according to the information given in the passage you have just read.
A
One of the advantaged of social media is that we get to see aspects of people’s lives that can be rather surprising. In fact, some of the videos that get shared remind us of the many hidden— and not-so-hidden — talents that are out there.
Recently a video was shared of a construction worker taking a break and treating his co-workers to a beautiful musical interlude (插曲) in their busy day. Archive could, a painter working for a specialized painting company in Edmonton, was carrying out a job in front of a library. Looking in the window, one of his workmates noticed there was a public piano inside.
Gould explained to CTV News that his workmates were aware that he’d played the piano for years, but he’d never been able to showcase his talents. Therefore on the first day on site, could sat down in his paint-stained work clothes to play for his workmates.
“It was so heart melting. I love classical music to begin with. Seeing him playing exceptionally well, I was totally touched,” his work mate, Kerrie bates, shared her reaction to Gould’s performance. As for could, he was also delighted to have the opportunity to show his workmates that he was indeed able to play the piano.
The performance was shared online, where it notched up an impressive number of views. And could come up with why he thought the video had become so popular, “I think half the reason that the video blew up is that I look like a construction worker. No one expects a construction worker to just demonstrate some classical music like it’s nothing.”
However, his performance is not just a lesson in looking beyond a person’s outward appearance, It also reminds us that we should develop our talents gradually and enjoy them as and when we can, While we might not all be able to become professional pianists or singers, there’s so much joy to be had in having a passion and sharing it with others.
36.What role does social media play according to the first paragraph?
A.A platform for people to show talents.
B.Means of communication and expression.
C.Place for people to share common interest.
D.A tool to remind us of some important things.
37.How did Kerrie bates react to Gould’s performance?
A.She considered it was incredible.
B.She thought it held lasting artistic valued,
C.She found it was more accessible to workers.
D.She believed it deserved a great deal of fame.
38.What does the underlined phrase “notched up” in paragraph 5 probably mean?
A.Reserved. B.Required. C.Convinced. D.Earned.
39.What does Gould’s story convey?
A.The early bird catches the worm. B.Never judge a book by its cover.
C.Actions speak louder than words. D.Nothing is difficult to a willing heart,
B

A peer is a person who is about the same age as you. Peers affect your life, whether you know it or not, just by spending time with you.
Peers can have a good effect on one another. Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in solar system. Maybe you got others excited about your new favorite book and now everyone’s reading it.
However, sometimes peers affect one another in another way. For example, one kid in school might try to get another to cut class with him, your soccer friend might try to persuade you to be mean to another player and never pass her the ball, or a kid in the neighborhood might want you to steal things with him.
Some kids give in to peer pressure because they want to be liked, to fit in, or because they worry that other kids may make fun of them if they don’t go along with the group. Others may go along because they are curious to try something new that others are doing. The idea that “everyone’ s doing it’ may influence some kids to leave their better judgments or their common senses behind.
Peer pressure can be extremely strong and hard to get rid of. Experiments have shown how peer pressure can influence someone to change her/ his mind from what she/ he knows for sure is a correct answer to the incorrect answer— just because everyone else gives the incorrect answer! That holds true for people of any age in peer pressure situations.
It can be hard to walk away from peer pressure, but it can be done. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do. Inner strength and self-confidence can help you stand firm, walk away and resist doing something when you know better.
43.The writer will NOT agree that ________.
A.only children change their correct answers under peer pressure.
B.Peers will believe in themselves if other peers agree with them.
C.peers have effect on each other whether the effect is good or not.
D.Peer pressure is very strong and difficult for people to get rid of.
44.The writer intends to ________ by writing the passage.
A.encourage people to follow others’ opinions.
B.warn people to stay away from their peers.
C.tell people it is hard to be away from peer pressure.
D.advise people to do the right despite peer pressure.
45.All of the following aspects are concerned in the passage EXCEPT ________.
A.The definition of the peer and how it affects life.
B.The reason why kids have stronger peer pressure.
C.The way peers influence each other in daily life.
D.The way peer pressure influences our judgment.
46.What is the passage mainly about?
A.Peer pressure has a good effect. B.Peer pressure is hard to resist.
C.Children give in to peer pressure. D.Peer pressure always does harm.
Section C

One of the advantaged of social media is that we get to see aspects of people’s lives that can be rather surprising. In fact, some of the videos that get shared remind us of the many hidden— and not-so-hidden — talents that are out there.
Recently a video was shared of a construction worker taking a break and treating his co-workers to a beautiful musical interlude (插曲) in their busy day. Archive could, a painter working for a specialized painting company in Edmonton, was carrying out a job in front of a library. Looking in the window, one of his workmates noticed there was a public piano inside.
Gould explained to CTV News that his workmates were aware that he’d played the piano for years, but he’d never been able to showcase his talents. Therefore on the first day on site, could sat down in his paint-stained work clothes to play for his workmates.
“It was so heart melting. I love classical music to begin with. Seeing him playing exceptionally well, I was totally touched,” his work mate, Kerrie bates, shared her reaction to Gould’s performance. As for could, he was also delighted to have the opportunity to show his workmates that he was indeed able to play the piano.
The performance was shared online, where it notched up an impressive number of views. And could come up with why he thought the video had become so popular, “I think half the reason that the video blew up is that I look like a construction worker. No one expects a construction worker to just demonstrate some classical music like it’s nothing.”
However, his performance is not just a lesson in looking beyond a person’s outward appearance, It also reminds us that we should develop our talents gradually and enjoy them as and when we can, While we might not all be able to become professional pianists or singers, there’s so much joy to be had in having a passion and sharing it with others.

38.What does the underlined phrase “notched up” in paragraph 5 probably mean?
A.Reserved. B.Required. C.Convinced. D.Earned.

A peer is a person who is about the same age as you. Peers affect your life, whether you know it or not, just by spending time with you.
Peers can have a good effect on one another. Maybe another student in your science class taught you an easy way to remember the planets in solar system. Maybe you got others excited about your new favorite book and now everyone’s reading it.
However, sometimes peers affect one another in another way. For example, one kid in school might try to get another to cut class with him, your soccer friend might try to persuade you to be mean to another player and never pass her the ball, or a kid in the neighborhood might want you to steal things with him.
Some kids give in to peer pressure because they want to be liked, to fit in, or because they worry that other kids may make fun of them if they don’t go along with the group. Others may go along because they are curious to try something new that others are doing. The idea that “everyone’ s doing it’ may influence some kids to leave their better judgments or their common senses behind.
Peer pressure can be extremely strong and hard to get rid of. Experiments have shown how peer pressure can influence someone to change her/ his mind from what she/ he knows for sure is a correct answer to the incorrect answer— just because everyone else gives the incorrect answer! That holds true for people of any age in peer pressure situations.
It can be hard to walk away from peer pressure, but it can be done. Paying attention to your own feelings and beliefs about what is right and wrong can help you know the right thing to do. Inner strength and self-confidence can help you stand firm, walk away and resist doing something when you know better.
43.The writer will NOT agree that ________.
A.only children change their correct answers under peer pressure.
B.Peers will believe in themselves if other peers agree with them.
C.peers have effect on each other whether the effect is good or not.
D.Peer pressure is very strong and difficult for people to get rid of.
44.The writer intends to ________ by writing the passage.
A.encourage people to follow others’ opinions.
B.warn people to stay away from their peers.
C.tell people it is hard to be away from peer pressure.
D.advise people to do the right despite peer pressure.
45.All of the following aspects are concerned in the passage EXCEPT ________.
A.The definition of the peer and how it affects life.
B.The reason why kids have stronger peer pressure.
C.The way peers influence each other in daily life.
D.The way peer pressure influences our judgment.
46.What is the passage mainly about?
A.Peer pressure has a good effect. B.Peer pressure is hard to resist.
C.Children give in to peer pressure. D.Peer pressure always does harm.
