It is a very important and well­known idea. The rule says not to do anything to other people that you would not want them to do to you. It is a very simple yet deep truth. Confucius possessed a lot of important wisdom like this. He encouraged many values like children respecting elders, people respecting their ancestors, and wives respecting husbands. He desired for these moral principles in people's lives and in the government of the country. He believed that people should develop their own personal rules instead of simply memorizing rules of behavior to follow. He also had a thoughtful way of teaching. Instead of presenting his ideas through arguments and reasoning, he taught his rules through personal examples. He himself studied hard and sought truth, dreams and a perfect personality. In short, Confucius aimed to establish a world of great harmony. For over two thousand years, his teachings and beliefs still have a great effect on Chinese culture. Many other cultures around the world have also been influenced to this day by these important moral teachings. 17．What does the Golden Rule ask people to do? A．Study hard and seek truth. B．Respect their families and ancestors. C．Treat others as they wish to be treated. 答案：C 18．Which is one of the teachings of Confucius? A．People should develop their own personal rules. B．Husbands should respect wives. C．People should memorize rules of behavior. 答案：A 19．How did Confucius teach lessons? A．Through arguments. B．Through reasoning. C．Through personal examples. 答案：C 20．What does the speaker say about Confucius? A．He used to be even more popular. B．He has influenced many cultures. C．He has little effect on people today. 答案：B 第二部分　阅读(共两节，满分50分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题2.5分，满分37.5分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项。 A This is a great truth, one of the greatest truths. It is a great truth because once we truly see this truth, we transcend (超越) it. Once we truly know that life is difficult—once we truly understand and accept it—then life is no longer difficult. Because once it is accepted, the fact that life is difficult no longer matters. Most do not fully see this truth. Instead they complain about their problems and difficulties as if life should be easy. It seems to them that difficulties mean a special kind of suffering especially forced upon them or else upon their families, their class, or even their nation. What makes life difficult is that the process of facing and solving problems is a painful one. Problems, depending on their nature, cause us sadness, or loneliness or regret or anger or fear. These are uncomfortable feelings, often as painful as any kind of physical pain. And since life causes an endless series of problems, life is always difficult and is full of pain as well as joy. Yet, it is in this whole process of solving problems that life has its meaning. Problems are the serious test that tells us success from failure. When we desire to encourage the growth of human spirit, we encourage the human ability to solve problems, just as in school we set problems for our children to solve. It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn. As Benjamin Franklin said, those things that hurt, instruct. It is for this reason that wise people learn not to fear but to welcome the pain of problems. 篇章导读：本文是一篇议论文。我们要学会接受生活很艰难这个事实，然后去面对它，去解决生活中的问题，在解决问题的过程中，生活才有它的意义。 21．From the passage, it can be inferred that ________． A．everybody has problems B．we become stronger by meeting and solving the problems of life C．life is difficult because our problems bring us pain D．people like to complain about their problems 答案：B　推理判断题。根据第二段最后一句“Because once it is accepted, the fact that life is difficult no longer matters.(因为一旦它被接受，生活困难的事实就不再重要了。)”并结合全文可知，一旦接受了生活很艰难这个事实，然后去面对它，去解决生活中的问题，我们才会变得更加强大。故选B。 22．The writer probably used just one short sentence in the first paragraph to ________． A．save space B．persuade readers C．make readers laugh D．get readers' attention 答案：D　推理判断题。文章第一段作者只运用了“This is a great truth, one of the greatest truths.(这是一个伟大的真理，最伟大的真理之一。)”一句话作为开篇，而不直接论述自己想要表达的观点，目的是引起读者的注意。故选D。 23．The saying from Benjamin Franklin “Those things that hurt, instruct.” suggests that ________． A．we do not learn from experience B．we do not learn when we are in pain C．pain teaches us important lessons D．pain cannot be avoided 答案：C　推理判断题。根据最后一段倒数第三句“It is through the pain of meeting and working out problems that we learn.(我们是通过遇到和解决问题的痛苦来学习的。)”可知，Benjamin Franklin(本杰明·富兰克林)说过的“those things that hurt, instruct”暗示着痛苦会教给我们重要的道理。故选C。 B Christa Barfield of Germantown starts each day by drinking a cup of hot tea. When she lifts the cup to her lips, she smells the tea gently and looks forward to the day ahead. “Drinking a cup of tea is a form of self­reflection，” Barfield said. “When I'm doing my praying or meditation (冥想), drinking tea allows me to sit in the moment and be present.” Barfield, 32, fell in love with tea in 2018 after taking a trip to the Caribbean Island of Martinique where every morning with her breakfast she was served a hot cup from the couple she visited. There, the host would take live herbs from his garden, put them in a cup, and pour hot water over them. “It was very different from what we do in America，” Barfield said. “The tea had a fresher taste.” When she returned to Germantown, she was inspired to start a tea company of her own. In August, she started Viva Leaf Tea, a company that sells blended (调配的) teas from herbs and plants that Barfield grows from seed. The name of the company, Viva Leaf Tea, is a nod to the fresh herbal teas she drank in Martinique. “I started a tea company for wellness reasons，” Barfield explained. “It helped me to keep my 10 years of healthcare experiences and reuse them in my own way.” Before starting Viva Leaf Tea, Barfield worked in healthcare management at several private practices in Philadelphia. In 2018, she earned a bachelor's degree in healthcare administration from Saint Joseph's University. “We take all of our herbs very seriously，” she said. “There are thousands of tea companies all over the world. But you don't really know where the tea leaves come from.” Barfield provides a “farm to cup” experience for her customers. With every order, customers are provided with information about the origins of the herbs used and their possible health benefits. 篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。一位茶爱好者发现了一种新的喝茶方式，并在此启发下开办了自己的茶叶公司。 24．What did Barfield find from her trip to Martinique? A．Americans' love for tea. B．A new way to drink tea. C．The importance of fresh tea. D．The popularity of tea in the Caribbean. 答案：B　细节理解题。根据第二段最后两句“‘It was very different from what we do in America，’ Barfield said. ‘The tea had a fresher taste.’(‘这和我们在美国的做法非常不同，’巴菲尔德说。‘这茶的味道更鲜。’)”可知，Barfield (巴菲尔德)发现了一种新的饮茶方式。故选B。 25．What does the name of Barfield's company indicate? A．She is devoted to making blended teas. B．She takes great interest in growing herbs. C．She is crazy about starting a company of her own. D．She was impressed by the herbal teas in Martinique. 答案：D　推理判断题。根据第三段最后一句可知，该公司的命名是对她在Martinique (马提尼克)喝的新鲜草药茶的一种赞许。由此可推知，Barfield公司的名字表明她对Martinique的草药茶印象深刻。故选D。 26．What does Barfield want to do through her company? A．Share her healthcare experiences. B．Introduce a new way to make tea. C．Inspire people to learn tea culture. D．Help people keep healthy in her way. 答案：D　细节理解题。根据第四段前两句可知，Barfield想通过她的公司帮助人们以她的方式保持健康。故选D。 27．What does the author try to convey in the last paragraph? A．What health benefits herbal teas have. B．How Viva Leaf Tea advertises its products. C．What makes Viva Leaf Tea's products different. D．Where customers can find the origins of herbal teas. 答案：C　推理判断题。根据最后一段最后两句可知，Barfield为她的客户提供“从农场到杯子”的体验。每一份订单都会向顾客提供有关所用草药的来源及其可能的健康信息。由此可推知，作者在最后一段想要表达是什么让Viva Leaf Tea的产品与众不同。故选C。 C Sometimes life can seem challenging (挑战的) and we usually get the feeling of “the grass on the other side is always greener”！ We usually feel upset with the troubles that life throws at us. The best thing to do at that point of time is to close our eyes and start counting of all the blessings in life that God has given us. If we think deeply, our life is full of blessings that we hardly recognize. Listening to the singing of birds early in the morning, we realize that there are many people who spend their life in a world that is silent while many others spend their lives in a world that is dark and may have never seen a rainbow or the setting sun. When you go out for a drive, pull down the window and look at the poor beggar standing under the hot sun, begging for filling his hungry stomach. We get three meals a day without realizing its importance. Isn't that a blessing? Whenever you are sad, look at the eyes of your parents and family filled with love and concern for you. There are many people who have never experienced the love of a family. Isn't that a blessing? As Mother Teresa once said, “We don't need to do great things. We need to do small things with great love”． The key to a happy life is when we consider others problems to be our own and try to help them. When we love people without any expectations and help them, our heart is filled with a sense of happiness and peace seeing the smile on their face. So the next time whenever life knocks you down, close your eyes and ... start counting！ 篇章导读：本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。生活中充满挑战，为此我们会感到沮丧，有时会这山望着那山高，其实我们只需要细数上帝赐予我们的祝福就会懂得知足。 28．The underlined part “the grass on the other side is always greener” in Paragraph 1 probably means that ________． A．however happy we are, we never seem to be satisfied B．though we are rich, we are poor in mind C．we can have a better life if we work harder D．there exists a greener grass on the other side 答案：A　句意理解题。根据第一段可知，此处表示不管怎样，我们总会心烦意乱，因此the grass on the other side is always greener的意思是“无论我们多么幸福，我们似乎从不满足”。故选A。 29．What can be learned from the text? A．We have already known that life is filled with blessings. B．It is a blessing to have three meals a day. C．It's natural to see a rainbow or the setting sun in life. D．Mother Teresa calls on us to do great things in life. 答案：B　细节理解题。根据第四段最后两句可知，我们一天吃三顿饭却没有意识到它的重要性。这难道不是一种福气吗？换句话说，我们能一日吃三餐就是一种福气。故选B。 30．What does the author intend to tell us? A．True happiness lies in achieving wealth. B．Blessings should be treasured in our life. C．The singing of birds can make us happy. D．Love from our family gives us courage to face life. 答案：B　推理判断题。根据文章内容可知，我们在生活中对于自己所拥有的并不感到知足，其实我们只需要细数上帝赐给我们的祝福就会懂得知足。由此可推知，作者告诉我们应该珍惜生命中的福气。故选B。 31．What would be the best title for the text? A．Troubles in Life B．Secrets of Life C．A Sense of Happiness D．Count Your Blessings 答案：D　标题判断题。根据第二段以及最后一段可知，生活中充满挑战，我们会为各种事情心烦意乱，会觉得自己得到的不够多。但其实只要闭上眼睛，细数我们拥有的幸福，就会懂得知足。故选D。 D A friend of mine, in response to a conversation we were having about the injustices of life, asked me the question, “Who said life was going to be fair, or that it was even meant to be fair？” Her question was a good one. It reminded me of something I was taught as a youngster: life isn't fair. It's a disappointment, but it's absolutely true. One of the mistakes many of us make is that we feel sorry for ourselves, or for others, thinking that life should be fair, or that someday it will be. It's not and it won't be. One of the nice things about surrendering (屈从) to the fact that life isn't fair is that it keeps us from feeling sorry for ourselves by encouraging us to do the very best we can with what we have. We know it's not “life's job” to make everything perfect, it's our own challenge. Surrendering to this fact also keeps us from feeling sorry for others because we are reminded that everyone is dealt in different hand; everyone has unique strengths and problems in the process of growing up, facing the reality and making decisions; and everyone has those times that they feel unfairly treated. The fact that life isn't fair doesn't mean we shouldn't do everything in our power to improve our own lives or the world as a whole. To the contrary, it suggests that we should. When we don't recognize or admit that life isn't fair, we tend to feel pity for others and for ourselves. Pity, of course, is a self­defeating emotion that does nothing for anyone, except to make everyone feel worse than they already do. When we do recognize that life isn't fair, however, we feel sympathy for others and for ourselves. And sympathy is a heartfelt emotion that delivers loving­kindness to everyone it touches. The next time you find yourself thinking about the injustices of the world, try reminding yourself of this very basic fact. You may be surprised that it can make you out of self­pity and into helpful action. 篇章导读：本文是一篇议论文。作者认为我们要接受生活不公平的事实，没有必要为自己和他人的不公平感到遗憾。尽管生活不公平，我们还是应该尽一切努力来改善我们自己的生活。 32．The writer may agree with the fact that ________． A．life is meant to be fair B．people feel sorry only for ourselves C．life isn't fair D．someday life will be fair 答案：C　细节理解题。根据第一段最后两句可知，很多人错误地认为生活应该是公平的，或者总有一天它会是公平的。作者认为生活不会是公平的，将来也不会公平。故选C。 33．What makes everything perfect? A．Our own challenge. B．Unique strengths. C．Unfair treatment. D．Our duty. 答案：A　细节理解题。根据第二段第二句可知，作者认为让每件事都变得完美不是“生活的事”，而是我们自己的挑战(让每件事都变得完美)。故选A。 34．Facing the fact, people are advised to ________． A．feel pity for others and for themselves B．make brave decisions C．do everything in their power to improve their lives D．give up their unique strengths 答案：C　细节理解题。根据第三段前两句可知，生活不公平的事实并不意味着我们不应该尽一切努力来改善我们自己的生活或整个世界。相反，它表明我们应该这样做。故选C。 35．In the last paragraph, the underlined word “it” refers to ________． A．justices of the world B．this very basic fact C．loving­kindness D．self­defeating emotion 答案：B　指代判断题。根据第三段最后两句可知，作者认为提醒自己生活不公平的事实，能够能让我们摆脱自怜，并采取有效的行动。it指代的是上一句中的“this very basic fact”。故选B。 第二节(共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5分) 阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Offered praise needs to be genuine or it will not have its desired effect of rewarding. __36__ Parents can avoid offering empty praise by attending to and praising children's specific skills, positive attitudes, and desirable physical attributes (特性) that parents wish to reward. It is important that parents praise children more for their effort than for their success. However, working parents live in a competitive world where they are mostly rewarded only for their success. __37__ There are several reasons why this is a bad idea. By choosing and praising only successful outcomes, parents communicate to their children that their praise is conditional, and that children will only receive love if they “win”. As a result, children will feel less secure in parental love. That's to say, children will possibly experience anxiety and other emotional problems. __38__ __39__ Here is an example: Jamie's mother notes that Jamie got a C (an average grade) on her math test this week. Instead of criticizing her daughter for not getting higher marks, she says instead, “Jamie, I'm so impressed with how hard you studied for that test this week. I saw you reading every night this week.” Even though Jamie may not have gotten an “A” or a “B” on the test, her efforts towards studying are a vital foundation for her future success at math. Through her comment, Mom reinforced in Jamie's mind that her parents are aware of and approve of her effort. __40__ Effectively used, praise should highlight positive things children do or the way children use the qualities or attributes they possess. Most importantly, praise should focus on children's effort and perseverance. Practice makes perfect. A．How does an empty praise do harm to parenting? B．What does offering praise for effort look and sound like? C．Many kids will know when parents' praise is empty. D．This makes it more likely that Jamie will be willing to study in the future. E．The problems may result in less effort, and reduce their overall ability to succeed. F．A good basic rule is to make sure that parents offer a lot more praise and encouragement than correction. G．It is thus easier for parents to notice and praise the successful outcome of children's effort rather than their effort itself. 篇章导读：本文是一篇议论文。对于孩子来说表扬很重要，家长要更多地对孩子的努力提出表扬，而不要只关注结果。 36．C　上句讲述表扬也需要技巧，否则就达不到效果，下句转到了父母们可以避免空洞的表扬。C项(很多孩子都能察觉出父母空洞的表扬。)与下文衔接。故选C。 37．G　第二段的主题是让父母们表扬孩子们的努力过程而非成功的结果。设空处上一句指出父母们所处的社会中就是奖励成功，下一句继续说明这种机制不好的原因。G项(因此父母们更容易注意和表扬孩子们努力带来的成功结果而非努力本身。)承接上文。故选G。 38．E　第二段的后半部分都是在讲“只注重结果”导致的问题，E项(这种问题可能会导致付出更少的努力，同时减弱取得成功的综合能力。)承接上文，符合文意。故选E。 39．B　第三段给出了Jamie(杰米)和她母亲的案例，尽管成绩不理想，母亲依然肯定了Jamie的努力，这就是展现“表扬努力”的一个具体例子。B项(为努力而表扬究竟是怎样的呢？)贴合段落主题，适合作为主题句。故选B。 40．D　第四段说明“表扬努力”带来的好处，设空处上一句“通过母亲的评价，Jamie在心理上得到了支持，也意识到了父母是认可她的努力的”，D项(这使得Jamie在将来更有可能愿意去学习。)承接上文，符合主题。故选D。 第三部分　语言运用(共两节，满分30分) 第一节(共15小题；每小题1分，满分15分) 阅读下面短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。 Estis, a business growth consultant, came across Lily at her work. She had __41__ him so much that he wanted to share his experience with the world. Estis will never __42__ the cup of coffee he had when he met with Lily at an airport. It was __43__ about giving service with a smile—Lily took the __44__ to talk to him and showed real __45__ and care. Unknown to Lily, Estis' father had been diagnosed (诊断) with a severe illness. When he met Lily, he was __46__ home to spend the last days with his dad—and he was __47__ that their conversation would make a difference to his views on life. Lily works as a barista (咖啡馆服务员) at the airport's Starbucks. Some might see being a barista as __48__ an insignificant job and don't concern themselves with it. __49__， this is the kind of job Lily is always __50__ for. “I love to see people come and go.

But a harmonious dormitory is important for students and benefits all of us. In a harmonious atmosphere, we can rest well and pay our attention to studies. There are several ways to get on well with others and create the harmonious atmosphere. First, you have to form good habits, such as going to bed and getting up on time. Second, when there's an annoying situation in the dormitory, but you can't do anything about it, you should learn to tolerate. Third, try communicating more with others and learn to share. I believe you'll get used to the dormitory life and start enjoying it soon. Yours， Li Juan 第二节(满分25分) 阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇60词左右的内容概要。 “Learning a language is easy. Even a child can do it！” Most adults who are learning a second language would disagree with this statement. For them, learning a language is a very difficult task. They need hundreds of hours of study and practice, and even this will not guarantee success for every adult learner. Language learning is different from other kinds of learning. Some people who are very intelligent and successful in their fields find it difficult to succeed in language learning. On the other hand, some people who are successful language learners find it difficult to succeed in other fields. Language teachers often offer advice to language learners：“Read as much as you can in the new language.” “Practice speaking the language every day.” “Live with people who speak the language.” “Don't translate—try to think in the new language.” But what does a successful language learner do? Language learning research shows that successful language learners are similar in many ways. First of all, successful language learners are independent learners. They do not depend on the book or the teacher; they discover their own way to learn the language. Instead of waiting for the teacher to explain, they try to find the patterns and the rules for themselves. Successful language learning is active learning. Therefore, successful learners do not wait for a chance to use the language; they look for such a chance. They find people who speak the language and they ask these people to correct them when they make a mistake. They will try anything to communicate; they are willing to make mistakes and try again. It is more important for them to learn to think in the language than to know the meaning of every word. Finally, successful language learners are learners with a purpose. They want to learn the language because they are interested in the language and the people who speak it. It is necessary for them to learn the language in order to communicate with these people and to learn from them. 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　　 写前导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述多数成年人都认为学习一门第二语言并不是想象中的那么容易。对此，语言教师给学习者提出了一些建议并介绍了成功的语言学习者的一些特征。 [精彩范文] Different from people's belief that learning a second language is easy, it is tough for adults to learn a second language. (要点1) Although second language learning needs much effort, it is not the same as other kinds of learning. (要点 2) Therefore, those who are smart and successful in their fields do not necessarily succeed in language learning. (要点3) With a purpose, successful language learners learn independently and positively.
