The interviewer said to them, “All of you are very good. Please go home and wait for our response.” Three days later, my son received a message from the company. It said that he hadn’t been offered the job. But later in the evening he told me he had received another message saying he had been employed(聘用) by the company. Actually, the first message sent to my son was also part of the test in the interview. The three men received the same message, but only my son’s reply satisfied the company, so he was given the job. I asked my son, “How did all of you reply?” My son said, “One did not reply, the other said goodbye, and I said ‘thank you’.” Only then did I know that Tom’s job came in that way. That is, when you feel disappointed, do not forget to say thank you to the one who disappoints you. Saying thank you shows respect for others’ work.

If you’re an artist, you keep making art. And if you have never considered yourself an artist, now is the time to take up an artistic hobby such as drawing or painting. It is never too late to start. Everyone can do it. If you can hold a brush or crayon, you can create art. Creating art heals (治愈) not only the mind and spirit but also the body since all of these are connected. As you draw or paint, your breathing slows, your blood pressure (血压) lowers, and your mind lets go of daily problems. This slowing down allows you to fully experience the moment. The process not only relaxes you but also brings a feeling of joy, increasing your energy and enthusiasm (热情) for life. Making art also allows you to play, freeing you to find out and try out new materials and methods. It also lets you express pleasure by seeing beauty where others may not. Creating art provides you a special chance to express your anger or upset, as well as your personal ideas. Although the process of making art is the most important part, your finished product is important too. Your painting or drawing will remind you of the lessons you learned while making it, and you may feel energetic just by looking at it. If you don’t know how to begin, here are some ways to start creating art. If possible, set aside a small table with your brushes and watercolors so you can get creative whenever you get inspiration (灵感). Without thinking much about it, just choose colors that you like and start painting with them, or cut pictures with those colors out of magazines and glue them down, combining (结合) them with paints. The act of enjoying the colors and working on the color combinations will give you something to focus on instead of the stresses of your daily life. 26. What do you need to do if you start making art according to Paragraph 1? A. Ask a teacher for help. B. Start as early as possible. C. Be a young artist first. D. Just have a brush or crayon. 27. What can you learn about making art from Paragraphs 2 and 3? A. It is good for our health. B. It causes high blood pressure. C. It’s like playing games. D. It helps us solve daily problems. 28. Which of the following is NOT true about how to start making art? A. You must be very careful while choosing colors. B. You can begin painting whenever you get inspiration. C. You can get brushes and watercolors for preparation. D. You may use magazines to make color combinations. 29. What’s the writer’s purpose (目的) of writing the text? A. To tell us how to be an artist. B. To introduce the history of art. C. To encourage us to make art. D. To teach us how to choose colors. 30. What’s the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 【答案】26. D 27. A 28. A 29. C 30. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了画画在缓解压力和焦虑方面的重要性以及如何开始画画。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“If you can hold a brush or crayon, you can create art.”可知，创造艺术只需要刷子和彩笔。故选D。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“Creating art heals (治愈) not only the mind and spirit but also the body since all of these are connected.”可知，创造艺术对心灵、精神和身体健康都有好处。故选A。 【28题详解】 推理判断题。根据第五段“Without thinking much about it, just choose colors that you like and start painting with them, or cut pictures with those colors out of magazines and glue them down, combining (结合) them with paints.”可知，不用想太多，只要选择你喜欢的颜色即可，由此推知，选项A“选择颜色时你必须非常小心”表述错误。故选A。 【29题详解】 主旨大意题。通读全文可知，本文主要讲述了画画在缓解压力和焦虑方面的重要性以及如何开始画画。所以作者写作的目的是鼓励我们创造艺术。故选C。 【30题详解】 篇章结构题。第一段介绍了一种可以帮助人们释放压力和摆脱焦虑的方法，为第一部分；第二、三、四段讲述了创造艺术对心灵、精神和健康都有好处，为第二部分；第五段讲述了如何开始画画，为第三部分。故选C。 阅读短文，从所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯。选项中有一项为多余选项。 As Chinese, we learn and use Chinese characters (汉字) all the time. ____31____ At first, the characters were paintings about the things people saw in their daily lives. However, it is quite impossible to describe so many things by drawing. ____32____ Among them, jiaguwen is the earliest kind of Chinese character.

Next, is there a deeper meaning hidden behind it? In fact, there is no loong in real life. ____34____ It is said that the loong really played an important role in farming, so people looked up to it very much. And as time went on, the loong’s role in people’s thoughts became more and more important. ____35____ That’s why the ancient emperors’ clothes always had the image of “loong” while common people’s didn’t. Nowadays, we are known as the “descendants (传人) of the loong”, so “loong” also stands for China. In a word, Chinese characters are a valuable part of Chinese culture.

B Half a year before graduating from college, my son began to look for a job and soon got an interview. There were only three people for the final interview. The interview was very simple, during which the interviewer only chatted with them for a while. The interviewer said to them, “All of you are very good. Please go home and wait for our response.” Three days later, my son received a message from the company. It said that he hadn’t been offered the job. But later in the evening he told me he had received another message saying he had been employed(聘用) by the company. Actually, the first message sent to my son was also part of the test in the interview. The three men received the same message, but only my son’s reply satisfied the company, so he was given the job. I asked my son, “How did all of you reply?” My son said, “One did not reply, the other said goodbye, and I said ‘thank you’.” Only then did I know that Tom’s job came in that way. That is, when you feel disappointed, do not forget to say thank you to the one who disappoints you. Saying thank you shows respect for others’ work. Therefore, while under the same condition, you may get more chances compared to others! In our life, we should say “thank you” more. It will bring more surprises. 21. Why didn’t Tom get the job after the interview? A. Because he did badly in the interview. B. Because he didn’t like the job. C. Because the test of the interview wasn’t finished. D. Because the other two interviewers were better. 22. What was Tom’s reply after receiving the first message? A. He said “goodbye”. B. He said “thank you”. C. He said nothing. D. He said “no problem”. 23. What does the underlined word “response” mean in Chinese? A 录用 B. 辞职 C. 讨论 D. 答复 24. Which of the following best describes Tom? A. Honest. B. Caring. C. Polite D. Forgetful. 25. What is the best title for the text? A. The surprising reply B. The power of “thank you” C. A successful interview D. A good offer for my son C What can you do to help yourself get out of stress or worry? If you’re an artist, you keep making art. And if you have never considered yourself an artist, now is the time to take up an artistic hobby such as drawing or painting. It is never too late to start. Everyone can do it. If you can hold a brush or crayon, you can create art. Creating art heals (治愈) not only the mind and spirit but also the body since all of these are connected. As you draw or paint, your breathing slows, your blood pressure (血压) lowers, and your mind lets go of daily problems. This slowing down allows you to fully experience the moment. The process not only relaxes you but also brings a feeling of joy, increasing your energy and enthusiasm (热情) for life. Making art also allows you to play, freeing you to find out and try out new materials and methods. It also lets you express pleasure by seeing beauty where others may not. Creating art provides you a special chance to express your anger or upset, as well as your personal ideas. Although the process of making art is the most important part, your finished product is important too. Your painting or drawing will remind you of the lessons you learned while making it, and you may feel energetic just by looking at it. If you don’t know how to begin, here are some ways to start creating art. If possible, set aside a small table with your brushes and watercolors so you can get creative whenever you get inspiration (灵感). Without thinking much about it, just choose colors that you like and start painting with them, or cut pictures with those colors out of magazines and glue them down, combining (结合) them with paints. The act of enjoying the colors and working on the color combinations will give you something to focus on instead of the stresses of your daily life. 26. What do you need to do if you start making art according to Paragraph 1? A. Ask a teacher for help. B. Start as early as possible. C. Be a young artist first. D. Just have a brush or crayon. 27. What can you learn about making art from Paragraphs 2 and 3? A. It is good for our health. B. It causes high blood pressure. C. It’s like playing games. D. It helps us solve daily problems. 28. Which of the following is NOT true about how to start making art? A. You must be very careful while choosing colors. B. You can begin painting whenever you get inspiration. C. You can get brushes and watercolors for preparation. D. You may use magazines to make color combinations. 29. What’s the writer’s purpose (目的) of writing the text? A. To tell us how to be an artist. B. To introduce the history of art. C. To encourage us to make art. D. To teach us how to choose colors. 30. What’s the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 阅读短文，从所给的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，使短文通顺、连贯。选项中有一项为多余选项。 As Chinese, we learn and use Chinese characters (汉字) all the time. ____31____ At first, the characters were paintings about the things people saw in their daily lives. However, it is quite impossible to describe so many things by drawing. ____32____ Among them, jiaguwen is the earliest kind of Chinese character. Then it developed into different forms in different times. ____33____ In its form, we can still find the image of a loong (龙): the part on the left is its head, while “立” is its horns (角) and eyes and “月” is its mouth, and the right part is its body. Next, is there a deeper meaning hidden behind it? In fact, there is no loong in real life. ____34____ It is said that the loong really played an important role in farming, so people looked up to it very much. And as time went on, the loong’s role in people’s thoughts became more and more important. ____35____ That’s why the ancient emperors’ clothes always had the image of “loong” while common people’s didn’t. Nowadays, we are known as the “descendants (传人) of the loong”, so “loong” also stands for China. In a word, Chinese characters are a valuable part of Chinese culture. We have the duty to study and spread them. In this way, more and more people will know China better in the future. A. One of my favorite hanzi is “龍”. B. Later, it became the symbol of power. C. But do you know their development and spirit? D. It is just an animal created in Chinese stories. E. So some hanzi may have different meanings in different times. F. So hanzi needs to develop and it turns into different forms. 三、短文填空(共10小题,每小题1分,满分10分) 从方框中选择适当的单词，并用其适当的形式完成短文，每词只能用一次，每空一词。 late, fine, century, one, world, drink, boil, nation, popular, bring Did you know that tea, the most popular drink in the world (after water), was invented by accident?
