Every month, a new contest will begin. Poetry.com prides itself in supporting and encouraging all writers, regardless of background, education or experience.
How does it work?
Submit an original poem or choose one of your existing poems from the site. Check out our entry criteria, and then submit your entry before the deadline! The following month, we will announce the winners on our contest Summary Page. Additionally, all nominated (提名的) poems will be displayed on our site and will feature a special badge (徽章).
What about the awards?
The top three winners will receive cash prizes. Five runners-up will receive personalized teacups featuring their winning poem. And that’s not all—at the end of the year, the twelve monthly winners will compete for the Poem of the Year grand prize of $1, 000.
How do you decide who wins?
In this contest, you are the judges! Every nominee is qualified for one vote, each vote worth a single point.

On a bright July day in the Nangili, Kenya, the kids from the village gathered at Blessed Children's Home, a shelter for 11 orphans, to kick around a soccer ball made from waste plastic bags tied tightly together with rope.
Blessed Children’s Home has no running water, television or social media. They live on a diet mostly consisting of rice and vegetables. For drinking water, they use collected rainwater and water drawn from a hand-dug unfiltered well. The living conditions were tough for my 15-year-old brother Caleb and me to get used to, but we quickly came to understand that these kids in Nangili have something that many American kids lack. They have friendships resulting from the sufferings they have experienced together, and they have learned to enjoy the simple things in life.
Caleb and I are runners on the Farmingdale High School cross-country track team, and we went to Kenya to train at the High Altitude Training Centre in Iten. The training we received from Kenya’s world-class runners was excellent, but our most memorable experiences in Kenya were with the orphans at Blessed Children’s Home.
When we arrived there, the children welcomed us warmly. Although Nangili is a very poor village with few resources, its children find joy in playing card games and soccer. We spent many hours a day with them, laughing, running, competing, and playing.
Although I missed Farmingdale when I was in Kenya, I gained a new appreciation for all the things we have here. Now I will try to live a life that is more thankful and more focused on people than on things. I want to study business in college so I can help set up social enterprises in Africa that would give opportunities to kids like the orphans I met. They have taught me more than I ever imagined. I realize now that I can learn the deepest life lessons from people with whom I might have thought I had little in common. I look forward to returning to Nangili to play with them again.
24. What does Blessed Children’s Home do?
A. It helps poor children survive.
B. It shares children’s stories in Kenya.
C. It fights for children’s rights in Kenya.
D. It takes care of children who don’t have parents.
25. What can we learn about the kids in Nangili from paragraph 2?
A. They are on a diet.
B. They lead a simple but happy life.
C. They have friendships with American kids.
D. They are unable to adapt to the living conditions.
26. Why did Caleb and the author go to Kenya?
A. To receive training. B. To do sightseeing.
C. To study Kenya’s history. D. To teach in a children’s home.
27. What does the author mainly want to tell us?
A. Children like playing card games and soccer.
B. Nangili is a very poor village with few resources.
C. We should be grateful for what we have and the people around us.
D. It is wise to make friends with people having little in common with us.

If there were an app on your phone that could improve your memory, would you try it? Who wouldn't want a better memory? After all, our memory can be easily damaged by diseases, injuries, mental health conditions and, most particularly for all of us, aging.
Nowadays, there are a large number of apps that provide memory training on our phones. Can they help you remember to take medicine, do better on a school exam, remember the name of the person whom you met yesterday? Some scientists question whether this is possible. Undoubtedly, many of the brain training companies today exaggerate the potential benefits of using their apps.
Scientists have provided evidence that brain training does not benefit everyone in the same way. It is suggested that little consideration has been given to who would benefit most from those brain training apps. Will it only be those who have some form of memory impairment(缺陷),or can it also help those eager for self-improvement even though they are already functioning very well?
To overcome these limitations, our team has started a new study aiming to find 30,000 volunteers to help us determine which form of training may be best for individuals. Our goal is to avoid a one — size — fits — all approach. Instead of focusing on the simple question of whether brain training works, we are looking to engage the whole population in a new challenge to test for whom brain training works, and under which conditions.
28. What can affect our memory in particular?
A. Getting ill. B. Getting old.
C. Being upset. D. Being injured.
29. Which word best describes the scientists' attitude to memory training apps?
A. Supportive. B. Doubtful.
C. Neutral. D. Indifferent.
30. Why did the author's team conduct the research?
A. To test whether brain training works.
B. To develop a training that suits all the people.
C. To compete with other memory training organizations.
D. To find the best form of training for different people.
31. Where is the article probably taken from?
A. A fashion magazine. B. A tour guide.
C. A science website. D. A personal blog.
D
Do you have a brain for math? New research indicates that levels of two key neurotransmitters (脑神经传递素)—glutamate (谷氨酸) and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA γ-氨基丁酸) can predict mathematical abilities, suggesting brain chemistry may be playing a role in those who find math easy.
The new study, published in the journal PLOS Biology, recruited 255 subjects extending a range of six-year-olds in primary school to university students. The research focused on glutamate and GABA, known to play a role in brain plasticity and learning. Based on prior research, the focus was on two brain regions linked with mathematical abilities—the left intraparietal sulcus (IPS 顶叶内沟) and the left middle frontal gyrus (MFG 脑额中回).
Interestingly, the results were different. In the youngest subjects high GABA levels and low glutamate levels in the left IPS were consistently associated with high math skills. But in the older university group the exact opposite was seen: low GABA and high glutamate were linked with strong mathematical abilities. Levels of both neurotransmitters in the MFG did not associate with math skills.
The group was tested twice over 18 months, allowing the researchers to see if these neurotransmitter levels could predict mathematical ability into the future. And it worked, with neurotransmitter levels effectively predicting one’s success on math tests completed a year and a half later.
Another recent study from the same research team looked specifically at GABA levels in MFG of 14- to 18-year-olds. That research indicated MFG GABA levels could effectively predict whether a student was still studying maths or had ceased that subject years prior.
Cohen Kadosh, one of the researchers working on the study, says this may indicate math education can help stimulate the development of key brain regions. Further research will work on whether certain learning interventions can help those children less interested in math so these brain regions still get the developmental workout they need.
“Not every adolescent enjoys maths so we need to investigate possible alternatives, such as training in logic and reasoning that engage the same brain area as maths,” says Cohen Kadosh.
32. What is the new study aimed at?
A. Exploring mental development of the subjects. B. Finding the tie between brain chemistry and math.
C. Testing the link between brain regions. D. Revealing the structure of brain.
33. What can be learned from the findings?
A. The levels of GABA decide one’s math skills. B. Low MFG glutamate means poor math ability.
C. Neurotransmitters in the MFG affect math skills. D. Math education may help with brain development.
34. What can better math education according to Cohen Kadosh?
A. Studying more possible options. B. Training math learners respectively.
C. Developing key relevant brain areas. D. Tracing slow learners’ early learning.
35. What can be the best title of the text?
A. Factors Affecting Math Skills B. Ways to Promote Math Education
C. Brain Activities Involved in Math Study D. Math Ability Predicted by Neurotransmitters

How to Be a Better Listener
When you are in a conversation with someone and paying attention to what they’re saying, that’s a sign of care and respect. So it’s important for everyone to learn how to be a better listener. 36 .
Be an active listener
A good listener is attentive. They’re focused and paying attention to what the other person is saying. This is called active listening. 37 . You can assume that if someone keeps looking at their watch or over their shoulder, their focus isn’t on the conversation.
38
When someone is talking, they are usually saying something they consider to be meaningful. They want all eyes on them. Eye contact is very powerful. It can convey much information without anything being said. So make it a point the next time you’re in a conversation to maintain eye contact with the speaker.
Ask questions
Asking questions is one of the best ways to show you’re interested. If someone is telling you about their ski trip to Mammoth Mountain, don’t respond with, “That’s nice.” This would show a lack of interest. Instead, you can ask, “How long have you been skiing?” “What was your favorite part of the trip?” 39 .
Avoid interrupting the speaker
Interrupting is a sign of disrespect. 40 . Interrupting a speaker to agree, disagree, argue, etc. also causes the speaker to lose track of what they are saying. Whatever you have to say, wait until the other person finishes his talk.
A. Maintain eye contact
B. Encourage the speaker to continue
C. Active listening involves listening with all your senses
D. When this happens, you take a moment to listen closely
E. Here are some simple things you can do to make that happen
F. When you interrupt the speaker, they feel frustrated and unimportant
G. The person will think more highly of you and consider you a great listener

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When the shrill (尖锐的) ring of the phone echoed (回响) through the living room, Jane was still sleeping. She slowly opened her sleepy eyes and looked at the clock on the bedside table. It was already nine o’clock! Though still sleepy, Jane knew she had to get up because her mother had been working in her office day and night for several days and she couldn’t expect her younger brother Tom, who was sleeping like a pig, to answer the phone. She quickly put on a coat and dashed into the living room. As she picked up the receiver, on the other end came the warm greeting, “Good morning, my dear!”
It was the voice of her father, a sea man who seldom returned home due to his duties earning money to support the family. On hearing her father’s voice, Jane’s sleepiness disappeared.
Born in a not-so-rich family, Jane and Tom felt the stress of life, but they were happy to enjoy the family atmosphere. At school, they were straight-A students and took part in various after-school activities, earning the pride of their loved ones.
“Good morning, Dad. Why are you calling so early on a weekend?” Jane inquired, pretending to be slightly annoyed. “Tom and I have been very nice recently.” “My dear, today is your mother’s birthday. I have ordered a cake online and it will arrive at our doorstep in the late afternoon. Do remember to take the cake. It is my surprise for your mother.”
Upon hearing her father’s words, Jane felt a twinge of embarrassment. How could she have forgotten such an important day!
While chatting with her father, Jane’s gaze (凝视) wandered around the room and saw a lot of dirty clothes scattered (散落) on the sofa. The floor hadn’t been cleaned for a few days since her mother had been too busy with work this week to attend to such domestic matters.
Glancing at the clock again, Jane realized she still had enough time to prepare a surprise for her mother.
“Well, Dad, now I’m going to wake Tom up. We will give Mum a surprise, too!” Jane said and hung up the telephone.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

On a bright July day in the Nangili, Kenya, the kids from the village gathered at Blessed Children's Home, a shelter for 11 orphans, to kick around a soccer ball made from waste plastic bags tied tightly together with rope.
Blessed Children’s Home has no running water, television or social media. They live on a diet mostly consisting of rice and vegetables. For drinking water, they use collected rainwater and water drawn from a hand-dug unfiltered well. The living conditions were tough for my 15-year-old brother Caleb and me to get used to, but we quickly came to understand that these kids in Nangili have something that many American kids lack. They have friendships resulting from the sufferings they have experienced together, and they have learned to enjoy the simple things in life.
Caleb and I are runners on the Farmingdale High School cross-country track team, and we went to Kenya to train at the High Altitude Training Centre in Iten. The training we received from Kenya’s world-class runners was excellent, but our most memorable experiences in Kenya were with the orphans at Blessed Children’s Home.
When we arrived there, the children welcomed us warmly. Although Nangili is a very poor village with few resources, its children find joy in playing card games and soccer. We spent many hours a day with them, laughing, running, competing, and playing.
Although I missed Farmingdale when I was in Kenya, I gained a new appreciation for all the things we have here. Now I will try to live a life that is more thankful and more focused on people than on things. I want to study business in college so I can help set up social enterprises in Africa that would give opportunities to kids like the orphans I met. They have taught me more than I ever imagined. I realize now that I can learn the deepest life lessons from people with whom I might have thought I had little in common. I look forward to returning to Nangili to play with them again.
24. What does Blessed Children’s Home do?
A. It helps poor children survive.
B. It shares children’s stories in Kenya.
C. It fights for children’s rights in Kenya.
D. It takes care of children who don’t have parents.
25. What can we learn about the kids in Nangili from paragraph 2?
A. They are on a diet.
B. They lead a simple but happy life.
C. They have friendships with American kids.
D. They are unable to adapt to the living conditions.
26. Why did Caleb and the author go to Kenya?
A. To receive training. B. To do sightseeing.
C. To study Kenya’s history. D. To teach in a children’s home.
27. What does the author mainly want to tell us?
A. Children like playing card games and soccer.
B. Nangili is a very poor village with few resources.
C. We should be grateful for what we have and the people around us.
D. It is wise to make friends with people having little in common with us.

If there were an app on your phone that could improve your memory, would you try it? Who wouldn't want a better memory? After all, our memory can be easily damaged by diseases, injuries, mental health conditions and, most particularly for all of us, aging.
Nowadays, there are a large number of apps that provide memory training on our phones. Can they help you remember to take medicine, do better on a school exam, remember the name of the person whom you met yesterday? Some scientists question whether this is possible. Undoubtedly, many of the brain training companies today exaggerate the potential benefits of using their apps.
Scientists have provided evidence that brain training does not benefit everyone in the same way. It is suggested that little consideration has been given to who would benefit most from those brain training apps. Will it only be those who have some form of memory impairment(缺陷),or can it also help those eager for self-improvement even though they are already functioning very well?
To overcome these limitations, our team has started a new study aiming to find 30,000 volunteers to help us determine which form of training may be best for individuals. Our goal is to avoid a one — size — fits — all approach. Instead of focusing on the simple question of whether brain training works, we are looking to engage the whole population in a new challenge to test for whom brain training works, and under which conditions.
28. What can affect our memory in particular?
A. Getting ill. B. Getting old.
C. Being upset. D. Being injured.
29. Which word best describes the scientists' attitude to memory training apps?
A. Supportive. B. Doubtful.
C. Neutral. D. Indifferent.
30. Why did the author's team conduct the research?
A. To test whether brain training works.
B. To develop a training that suits all the people.
C. To compete with other memory training organizations.
D. To find the best form of training for different people.
31. Where is the article probably taken from?
A. A fashion magazine. B. A tour guide.
C. A science website. D. A personal blog.

Do you have a brain for math? New research indicates that levels of two key neurotransmitters (脑神经传递素)—glutamate (谷氨酸) and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA γ-氨基丁酸) can predict mathematical abilities, suggesting brain chemistry may be playing a role in those who find math easy.
The new study, published in the journal PLOS Biology, recruited 255 subjects extending a range of six-year-olds in primary school to university students. The research focused on glutamate and GABA, known to play a role in brain plasticity and learning. Based on prior research, the focus was on two brain regions linked with mathematical abilities—the left intraparietal sulcus (IPS 顶叶内沟) and the left middle frontal gyrus (MFG 脑额中回).
Interestingly, the results were different. In the youngest subjects high GABA levels and low glutamate levels in the left IPS were consistently associated with high math skills. But in the older university group the exact opposite was seen: low GABA and high glutamate were linked with strong mathematical abilities. Levels of both neurotransmitters in the MFG did not associate with math skills.
The group was tested twice over 18 months, allowing the researchers to see if these neurotransmitter levels could predict mathematical ability into the future. And it worked, with neurotransmitter levels effectively predicting one’s success on math tests completed a year and a half later.
Another recent study from the same research team looked specifically at GABA levels in MFG of 14- to 18-year-olds. That research indicated MFG GABA levels could effectively predict whether a student was still studying maths or had ceased that subject years prior.
Cohen Kadosh, one of the researchers working on the study, says this may indicate math education can help stimulate the development of key brain regions. Further research will work on whether certain learning interventions can help those children less interested in math so these brain regions still get the developmental workout they need.
“Not every adolescent enjoys maths so we need to investigate possible alternatives, such as training in logic and reasoning that engage the same brain area as maths,” says Cohen Kadosh.
32. What is the new study aimed at?
A. Exploring mental development of the subjects. B. Finding the tie between brain chemistry and math.
C. Testing the link between brain regions. D. Revealing the structure of brain.
33. What can be learned from the findings?
A. The levels of GABA decide one’s math skills. B. Low MFG glutamate means poor math ability.
C. Neurotransmitters in the MFG affect math skills. D. Math education may help with brain development.
34. What can better math education according to Cohen Kadosh?
A. Studying more possible options. B. Training math learners respectively.
C. Developing key relevant brain areas. D. Tracing slow learners’ early learning.
35. What can be the best title of the text?
A. Factors Affecting Math Skills B. Ways to Promote Math Education
C. Brain Activities Involved in Math Study D. Math Ability Predicted by Neurotransmitters

第二节(共5小题, 每小题2. 5分, 共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。
How to Be a Better Listener
When you are in a conversation with someone and paying attention to what they’re saying, that’s a sign of care and respect. So it’s important for everyone to learn how to be a better listener. 36 .
Be an active listener
A good listener is attentive. They’re focused and paying attention to what the other person is saying. This is called active listening. 37 . You can assume that if someone keeps looking at their watch or over their shoulder, their focus isn’t on the conversation.
38
When someone is talking, they are usually saying something they consider to be meaningful. They want all eyes on them. Eye contact is very powerful. It can convey much information without anything being said. So make it a point the next time you’re in a conversation to maintain eye contact with the speaker.
Ask questions
Asking questions is one of the best ways to show you’re interested. If someone is telling you about their ski trip to Mammoth Mountain, don’t respond with, “That’s nice.” This would show a lack of interest. Instead, you can ask, “How long have you been skiing?” “What was your favorite part of the trip?” 39 .
Avoid interrupting the speaker
Interrupting is a sign of disrespect. 40 . Interrupting a speaker to agree, disagree, argue, etc. also causes the speaker to lose track of what they are saying. Whatever you have to say, wait until the other person finishes his talk.
A. Maintain eye contact
B. Encourage the speaker to continue
C. Active listening involves listening with all your senses
D. When this happens, you take a moment to listen closely
E. Here are some simple things you can do to make that happen
F. When you interrupt the speaker, they feel frustrated and unimportant
G. The person will think more highly of you and consider you a great listener

这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了如何成为一个更好的倾听者,并给出一些方法。
【详情解析】
36.上文“When you are in a conversation with someone and paying attention to what they’re saying, that’s a sign of care and respect. So it’s important for everyone to learn how to be a better listener.”(当你在和某人交谈时,注意听他们在说什么,这是关心和尊重的表现。所以对每个人来说,学习如何成为一个更好的倾听者是很重要的。)以及下文具体提出的几种方法。故可推断空格处内容为有一些可以帮助你的方法。结合选项E项Here are some simple things you can do to make that happen.(这里有一些你可以做的简单的事情来实现它。)符合此推断,起到上下文的承上启下作用。故选E项。
37.上文“A good listener is attentive. They’re focused and paying attention to what the other person is saying. This is called active listening.”(好的倾听者是专注的。他们很专注,很注意对方在说什么。这叫做积极倾听。)提到积极倾听,下文“You can assume that if someone keeps looking at their watch or over their shoulder, their focus isn’t on the conversation.”(你可以假设,如果有人一直看手表或回头看,他们的注意力就不在谈话上。)为具体例子解释积极倾听。结合选项C项Active listening involves listening with all your senses(积极倾听包括用你所有的感官倾听)为上文内容的递进,以及对下文内容的总结。起到上下文的承上启下作用。故选C项。
38.由该题为段落小标题可知,为总结该段内容。该段下文“When someone is talking, they are usually saying something they consider to be meaningful. They want all eyes on them. Eye contact is very powerful. It can convey much information without anything being said. So make it a point the next time you’re in a conversation to maintain eye contact with the speaker.”(当一个人在说话时,他们通常会说一些他们认为有意义的话。他们想让所有人都盯着他们。眼神交流是非常强大的。它可以传达很多信息,什么也不说。所以,下次谈话时,一定要和说话人保持眼神交流。)可知,主要讲的是眼神交流。结合选项A项Maintain eye contact(保持眼神交流)意思一致,为该段内容的总结。故选A项。
39.由该空格处位于该段句尾,可知与上文内容相关或为上文内容的总结。上文“Asking questions is one of the best ways to show you’re interested. If someone is telling you about their ski trip to Mammoth Mountain, don’t respond with, “That’s nice.” This would show a lack of interest. Instead, you can ask, “How long have you been skiing?” “What was your favorite part of the trip?””(问问题是表示你感兴趣的最好方式之一。如果有人告诉你他们在猛犸山滑雪旅行,不要回答:“那很好。”这会显得你缺乏兴趣。相反,你可以问:“你滑雪多长时间了?”“旅行中你最喜欢的部分是什么?”)可知,讲的是怎样更好的问问题。结合选项G项The person will think more highly of you and consider you a great listener(这个人会对你评价更高,认为你是一个很好的倾听者。)为上文内容的总结,上下文语意连贯。故选G项。
40.上文“Interrupting is a sign of disrespect.”(打断别人的话是不尊重的表现。)下文“Interrupting a speaker to agree, disagree, argue, etc. also causes the speaker to lose track of what they are saying.”(打断说话人以表示同意、不同意、争论等也会使说话人忘记自己在说什么。)故可推断,空格处内容为打断说话者时,他们的反应。结合选项F项When you interrupt the speaker, they feel frustrated and unimportant.(当你打断说话者时,他们会感到沮丧和不重要。)符合此推断,上下文语意连贯。故选F项。

阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
When the shrill (尖锐的) ring of the phone echoed (回响) through the living room, Jane was still sleeping. She slowly opened her sleepy eyes and looked at the clock on the bedside table. It was already nine o’clock! Though still sleepy, Jane knew she had to get up because her mother had been working in her office day and night for several days and she couldn’t expect her younger brother Tom, who was sleeping like a pig, to answer the phone. She quickly put on a coat and dashed into the living room. As she picked up the receiver, on the other end came the warm greeting, “Good morning, my dear!”
It was the voice of her father, a sea man who seldom returned home due to his duties earning money to support the family. On hearing her father’s voice, Jane’s sleepiness disappeared.
Born in a not-so-rich family, Jane and Tom felt the stress of life, but they were happy to enjoy the family atmosphere. At school, they were straight-A students and took part in various after-school activities, earning the pride of their loved ones.
“Good morning, Dad. Why are you calling so early on a weekend?” Jane inquired, pretending to be slightly annoyed. “Tom and I have been very nice recently.” “My dear, today is your mother’s birthday. I have ordered a cake online and it will arrive at our doorstep in the late afternoon. Do remember to take the cake. It is my surprise for your mother.”
Upon hearing her father’s words, Jane felt a twinge of embarrassment. How could she have forgotten such an important day!
While chatting with her father, Jane’s gaze (凝视) wandered around the room and saw a lot of dirty clothes scattered (散落) on the sofa. The floor hadn’t been cleaned for a few days since her mother had been too busy with work this week to attend to such domestic matters.
Glancing at the clock again, Jane realized she still had enough time to prepare a surprise for her mother.
“Well, Dad, now I’m going to wake Tom up. We will give Mum a surprise, too!” Jane said and hung up the telephone.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

Jane hurried to Tom’s room and shared her plan with him. After listening to Jane, Tom readily accepted her idea.The big cleaning plan began. Jane collected the clothes from sofa and began to do the laundry. Meanwhile, Tom was busy mopping the floor back and forth with all his strength, really aware of what hard work his Mum had at home! They had just finished the cleaning when the delivery boy came to the door. They took the cake and thanked him happily. It was a beautiful cake with a princess on it, enough to show the importance of Mom in Dad’s heart. Everything was ready for the big moment.
“Happy birthday, Mum!” Jane and Tom shouted when their mother opened the door. Confused and surprised, Mum stood frozen. When Mum realized what had happened, a warm current rose in her heart. Staring at the clean floor and the washed clothes and the big cake, she could hardly contain her excitement and hugged them tightly. “It is the best birthday gift I have ever had!” Mum said emotionally. Just then Jane took out her smartphone and took a happy video named Mum’s Birthday and sent it to Dad. What an unforgettable birthday!

On a bright July day in the Nangili, Kenya, the kids from the village gathered at Blessed Children's Home, a shelter for 11 orphans, to kick around a soccer ball made from waste plastic bags tied tightly together with rope.
Blessed Children’s Home has no running water, television or social media. They live on a diet mostly consisting of rice and vegetables. For drinking water, they use collected rainwater and water drawn from a hand-dug unfiltered well. The living conditions were tough for my 15-year-old brother Caleb and me to get used to, but we quickly came to understand that these kids in Nangili have something that many American kids lack. They have friendships resulting from the sufferings they have experienced together, and they have learned to enjoy the simple things in life.
Caleb and I are runners on the Farmingdale High School cross-country track team, and we went to Kenya to train at the High Altitude Training Centre in Iten. The training we received from Kenya’s world-class runners was excellent, but our most memorable experiences in Kenya were with the orphans at Blessed Children’s Home.
When we arrived there, the children welcomed us warmly. Although Nangili is a very poor village with few resources, its children find joy in playing card games and soccer. We spent many hours a day with them, laughing, running, competing, and playing.
Although I missed Farmingdale when I was in Kenya, I gained a new appreciation for all the things we have here. Now I will try to live a life that is more thankful and more focused on people than on things. I want to study business in college so I can help set up social enterprises in Africa that would give opportunities to kids like the orphans I met. They have taught me more than I ever imagined. I realize now that I can learn the deepest life lessons from people with whom I might have thought I had little in common. I look forward to returning to Nangili to play with them again.
24. What does Blessed Children’s Home do?
A. It helps poor children survive.
B. It shares children’s stories in Kenya.
C. It fights for children’s rights in Kenya.
D. It takes care of children who don’t have parents.
25. What can we learn about the kids in Nangili from paragraph 2?
A. They are on a diet.
B. They lead a simple but happy life.
C. They have friendships with American kids.
D. They are unable to adapt to the living conditions.
26. Why did Caleb and the author go to Kenya?
A. To receive training. B. To do sightseeing.
C. To study Kenya’s history. D. To teach in a children’s home.
27. What does the author mainly want to tell us?
A. Children like playing card games and soccer.
B. Nangili is a very poor village with few resources.
C. We should be grateful for what we have and the people around us.
D. It is wise to make friends with people having little in common with us.

If there were an app on your phone that could improve your memory, would you try it? Who wouldn't want a better memory? After all, our memory can be easily damaged by diseases, injuries, mental health conditions and, most particularly for all of us, aging.
Nowadays, there are a large number of apps that provide memory training on our phones. Can they help you remember to take medicine, do better on a school exam, remember the name of the person whom you met yesterday? Some scientists question whether this is possible. Undoubtedly, many of the brain training companies today exaggerate the potential benefits of using their apps.
Scientists have provided evidence that brain training does not benefit everyone in the same way. It is suggested that little consideration has been given to who would benefit most from those brain training apps. Will it only be those who have some form of memory impairment(缺陷),or can it also help those eager for self-improvement even though they are already functioning very well?
To overcome these limitations, our team has started a new study aiming to find 30,000 volunteers to help us determine which form of training may be best for individuals. Our goal is to avoid a one — size — fits — all approach. Instead of focusing on the simple question of whether brain training works, we are looking to engage the whole population in a new challenge to test for whom brain training works, and under which conditions.
28. What can affect our memory in particular?
A. Getting ill. B. Getting old.
C. Being upset. D. Being injured.
29. Which word best describes the scientists' attitude to memory training apps?
A. Supportive. B. Doubtful.
C. Neutral. D. Indifferent.
30. Why did the author's team conduct the research?
A. To test whether brain training works.
B. To develop a training that suits all the people.
C. To compete with other memory training organizations.
D. To find the best form of training for different people.
31. Where is the article probably taken from?
A. A fashion magazine. B. A tour guide.
C. A science website. D. A personal blog.
D
Do you have a brain for math? New research indicates that levels of two key neurotransmitters (脑神经传递素)—glutamate (谷氨酸) and gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA γ-氨基丁酸) can predict mathematical abilities, suggesting brain chemistry may be playing a role in those who find math easy.
The new study, published in the journal PLOS Biology, recruited 255 subjects extending a range of six-year-olds in primary school to university students. The research focused on glutamate and GABA, known to play a role in brain plasticity and learning. Based on prior research, the focus was on two brain regions linked with mathematical abilities—the left intraparietal sulcus (IPS 顶叶内沟) and the left middle frontal gyrus (MFG 脑额中回).
Interestingly, the results were different. In the youngest subjects high GABA levels and low glutamate levels in the left IPS were consistently associated with high math skills. But in the older university group the exact opposite was seen: low GABA and high glutamate were linked with strong mathematical abilities. Levels of both neurotransmitters in the MFG did not associate with math skills.
The group was tested twice over 18 months, allowing the researchers to see if these neurotransmitter levels could predict mathematical ability into the future. And it worked, with neurotransmitter levels effectively predicting one’s success on math tests completed a year and a half later.
Another recent study from the same research team looked specifically at GABA levels in MFG of 14- to 18-year-olds. That research indicated MFG GABA levels could effectively predict whether a student was still studying maths or had ceased that subject years prior.
Cohen Kadosh, one of the researchers working on the study, says this may indicate math education can help stimulate the development of key brain regions. Further research will work on whether certain learning interventions can help those children less interested in math so these brain regions still get the developmental workout they need.
“Not every adolescent enjoys maths so we need to investigate possible alternatives, such as training in logic and reasoning that engage the same brain area as maths,” says Cohen Kadosh.
32. What is the new study aimed at?
A. Exploring mental development of the subjects. B. Finding the tie between brain chemistry and math.
C. Testing the link between brain regions. D. Revealing the structure of brain.
33. What can be learned from the findings?
A. The levels of GABA decide one’s math skills. B. Low MFG glutamate means poor math ability.
C. Neurotransmitters in the MFG affect math skills. D. Math education may help with brain development.
34. What can better math education according to Cohen Kadosh?
A. Studying more possible options. B. Training math learners respectively.
C. Developing key relevant brain areas. D. Tracing slow learners’ early learning.
35. What can be the best title of the text?
A. Factors Affecting Math Skills B. Ways to Promote Math Education
C. Brain Activities Involved in Math Study D. Math Ability Predicted by Neurotransmitters

How to Be a Better Listener
When you are in a conversation with someone and paying attention to what they’re saying, that’s a sign of care and respect. So it’s important for everyone to learn how to be a better listener. 36 .
Be an active listener
A good listener is attentive. They’re focused and paying attention to what the other person is saying. This is called active listening. 37 . You can assume that if someone keeps looking at their watch or over their shoulder, their focus isn’t on the conversation.
38
When someone is talking, they are usually saying something they consider to be meaningful. They want all eyes on them. Eye contact is very powerful. It can convey much information without anything being said. So make it a point the next time you’re in a conversation to maintain eye contact with the speaker.
Ask questions
Asking questions is one of the best ways to show you’re interested. If someone is telling you about their ski trip to Mammoth Mountain, don’t respond with, “That’s nice.” This would show a lack of interest. Instead, you can ask, “How long have you been skiing?” “What was your favorite part of the trip?” 39 .
Avoid interrupting the speaker
Interrupting is a sign of disrespect. 40 . Interrupting a speaker to agree, disagree, argue, etc. also causes the speaker to lose track of what they are saying. Whatever you have to say, wait until the other person finishes his talk.
A. Maintain eye contact
B. Encourage the speaker to continue
C. Active listening involves listening with all your senses
D. When this happens, you take a moment to listen closely
E. Here are some simple things you can do to make that happen
F. When you interrupt the speaker, they feel frustrated and unimportant
G. The person will think more highly of you and consider you a great listener

When the shrill (尖锐的) ring of the phone echoed (回响) through the living room, Jane was still sleeping. She slowly opened her sleepy eyes and looked at the clock on the bedside table. It was already nine o’clock! Though still sleepy, Jane knew she had to get up because her mother had been working in her office day and night for several days and she couldn’t expect her younger brother Tom, who was sleeping like a pig, to answer the phone. She quickly put on a coat and dashed into the living room. As she picked up the receiver, on the other end came the warm greeting, “Good morning, my dear!”
It was the voice of her father, a sea man who seldom returned home due to his duties earning money to support the family. On hearing her father’s voice, Jane’s sleepiness disappeared.
Born in a not-so-rich family, Jane and Tom felt the stress of life, but they were happy to enjoy the family atmosphere. At school, they were straight-A students and took part in various after-school activities, earning the pride of their loved ones.
“Good morning, Dad. Why are you calling so early on a weekend?” Jane inquired, pretending to be slightly annoyed. “Tom and I have been very nice recently.” “My dear, today is your mother’s birthday. I have ordered a cake online and it will arrive at our doorstep in the late afternoon. Do remember to take the cake. It is my surprise for your mother.”
Upon hearing her father’s words, Jane felt a twinge of embarrassment. How could she have forgotten such an important day!
While chatting with her father, Jane’s gaze (凝视) wandered around the room and saw a lot of dirty clothes scattered (散落) on the sofa. The floor hadn’t been cleaned for a few days since her mother had been too busy with work this week to attend to such domestic matters.
Glancing at the clock again, Jane realized she still had enough time to prepare a surprise for her mother.
“Well, Dad, now I’m going to wake Tom up. We will give Mum a surprise, too!” Jane said and hung up the telephone.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Jane hurried to Tom’s room and shared her plan with him. _________________________________________
