According to the survey, 15% of students choose to ask their parents for help when they feel pressure. 25% choose to communicate with teachers, while 48% prefer to share their thoughts with classmates or friends, a practice which is extremely unfavorable to school education and parental management (父母的管理).

Mrs. Green spent most of her free time visiting the poor. She knew they had problems, and they needed help. She brought food, clothes and medicine for them.
One morning she told her children about a family she had visited the day before. The man was sick in bed. His wife could not go out to work but to take care of him. Their little boy, Dennis, was a helper to his mother.
“I feel sorry for him,” she said to her own children, John, Harry, and Clara. “He wants very much to make some money, but I don’t see what he can do.”
After their mother left the room, the children sat thinking about Dennis. “I wish we could help him to make money,” said Clara.
“So do I,” said Harry. “We really should do something to help them.”
For some moments, John said nothing, but, suddenly, he cried, “I have a great idea!”
The other children jumped up all attention. When John had an idea, it was sure to be a good one. “I tell you what we can do,” said John. “You know that big box of corn Uncle Mark sent us? Well, we can make popcorn, and put it into paper bags, and Dennis can take it around to the houses and sell it.”
When Mrs. Green heard of the idea, she thought it was a good one, too. Then Mrs. Green searched the Internet and ordered a household popcorn machine. After that, Mrs. Green, together with her three children, paid another visit to the family and told them about the popcorn plan. Needless to say, they were deeply moved, especially Dennis.
With everything ready, Dennis started out on his new business. Although it was a hard time for everybody, Dennis’s business worked out quite well. He carried the popcorn on his small bike, going from door to door to sell it. People were surprised to see such a little, poorly-dressed boy selling popcorn at their doors, but finally almost all of them would buy a bag or two.

When we talk about communication, we often think of communicating with others. But do you know that we also do communication with ourselves from time to time? Picture this: Your mom asks you what you would like for breakfast. Many foods come to your mind: pancakes, bread, porridge... You think that it would be great to have pancakes. Until you tell your mom what you want to eat, you are communicating with yourself.
We call this kind of communication intrapersonal communication (自我沟通). This can be talking to ourselves, reading, writing, thinking, understanding and remembering something.
Intrapersonal communication plays a big role in our lives. Good intrapersonal communication allows you to understand yourself better. When you’re comfortable with who you are, and you know what you want, you can better get on with yourself. Also, intrapersonal communication helps you to keep an eye on your thoughts and feelings. When you find that your mind is full of negative (消极的) thoughts and feelings, and they make you sad, you will try to cheer up and get rid of these bad thoughts and feelings.
What’s more, intrapersonal communication helps with your communication with others. Understanding your thoughts and feelings better allows you to put yourself in others’ shoes when you talk to or listen to them. Then, you can better understand and get on with them.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。

A. By showing some facts. B. By providing numbers.
C. By giving an example. D. By asking and answering a question.

【解析】
【导语】本文介绍了来自美国的Tristan Cabe在八年级时,通过使用海姆立克急救法成功救了一位噎住的同学的故事。
【46题详解】
句意:然后我发现一个男孩处于困境中。“in trouble”是固定短语,意为“处于困境中,有麻烦”,在句中作后置定语修饰“a boy”,此处表示男孩噎住了,有危险,处于困境。此处使用介词“in”,表示男孩所处的状态,符合语境。故填in。
【47题详解】
句意:我立刻走到他身后,实施了海姆立克急救法。“right away”是固定短语,意为“立刻、马上”,在句中作时间状语,修饰动词 “went”,表示动作发生的及时性。此处描述Cabe听到呼喊后迅速采取行动,符合语境。故填away。
【48题详解】
句意:Cabe的妈妈经常教他一些急救技能。“a few”是固定短语,意为“一些、几个”,修饰可数名词复数“first aid skills”表示数量,表达肯定的意思,“a few first aid skills”即“一些急救技能”。故填a。
【49题详解】
句意:我很高兴能帮助有需要的人。“be happy to do sth.”是固定用法,意为“很高兴做某事”,这里用动词不定式“to lend”作原因状语,在句中表示具体的动作或行为,此处说明高兴的原因是能够帮助别人。故填to。
【50题详解】
句意:我们将来会为我们的学生提供急救课程。“provide sth. for sb.”是固定短语,意为“为某人提供某物”,这里表示“学校为学生提供急救课程”即“provide first aid classes for our students”。故填for。

Mrs. Green spent most of her free time visiting the poor. She knew they had problems, and they needed help. She brought food, clothes and medicine for them.
One morning she told her children about a family she had visited the day before. The man was sick in bed. His wife could not go out to work but to take care of him. Their little boy, Dennis, was a helper to his mother.
“I feel sorry for him,” she said to her own children, John, Harry, and Clara. “He wants very much to make some money, but I don’t see what he can do.”
After their mother left the room, the children sat thinking about Dennis. “I wish we could help him to make money,” said Clara.
“So do I,” said Harry. “We really should do something to help them.”
For some moments, John said nothing, but, suddenly, he cried, “I have a great idea!”
The other children jumped up all attention. When John had an idea, it was sure to be a good one. “I tell you what we can do,” said John. “You know that big box of corn Uncle Mark sent us? Well, we can make popcorn, and put it into paper bags, and Dennis can take it around to the houses and sell it.”
When Mrs. Green heard of the idea, she thought it was a good one, too. Then Mrs. Green searched the Internet and ordered a household popcorn machine. After that, Mrs. Green, together with her three children, paid another visit to the family and told them about the popcorn plan. Needless to say, they were deeply moved, especially Dennis.
With everything ready, Dennis started out on his new business. Although it was a hard time for everybody, Dennis’s business worked out quite well. He carried the popcorn on his small bike, going from door to door to sell it. People were surprised to see such a little, poorly-dressed boy selling popcorn at their doors, but finally almost all of them would buy a bag or two.

When we talk about communication, we often think of communicating with others. But do you know that we also do communication with ourselves from time to time? Picture this: Your mom asks you what you would like for breakfast. Many foods come to your mind: pancakes, bread, porridge... You think that it would be great to have pancakes. Until you tell your mom what you want to eat, you are communicating with yourself.
We call this kind of communication intrapersonal communication (自我沟通). This can be talking to ourselves, reading, writing, thinking, understanding and remembering something.
Intrapersonal communication plays a big role in our lives. Good intrapersonal communication allows you to understand yourself better. When you’re comfortable with who you are, and you know what you want, you can better get on with yourself. Also, intrapersonal communication helps you to keep an eye on your thoughts and feelings. When you find that your mind is full of negative (消极的) thoughts and feelings, and they make you sad, you will try to cheer up and get rid of these bad thoughts and feelings.
What’s more, intrapersonal communication helps with your communication with others. Understanding your thoughts and feelings better allows you to put yourself in others’ shoes when you talk to or listen to them. Then, you can better understand and get on with them.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。
11. How does the writer explain the idea of intrapersonal communication in Paragraph 1?
A. By showing some facts. B. By providing numbers.
C. By giving an example. D. By asking and answering a question.
12. From Paragraph 3 we can learn about the ________ of intrapersonal communication.
A. right ways B. good points C. problems D. rules
13. What do the underlined words “get rid of” in Paragraph 3 mean in Chinese?
A. 摆脱 B. 看待 C. 珍惜 D. 参与
14. What is the structure of the text? (P-Paragraph)
A. B. C. D.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A. The Importance of Communication
B. Learn to Communicate with Yourself
