Howie Lin, 15 “In my opinion, humor is a must-have quality in a friend. Having a friend with a good sense of humor is like having a personal talk-show artist on call 24/7. I have a friend who always comes up with creative jokes. With him around, even the saddest days feel better.” Jasmine Cao, 13 “The most important thing I look for in a friend is having similar interests or hobbies to mine. I think this matters because these interests or hobbies can help us build a deeper connection. We may have a lot of fun memories together. For example, if we both love playing basketball, we can practice together, cheer each other up during games, and help each other improve. A true friend is someone who not only enjoys the same things as you but also stands by you, no matter what.” Claire Tan, 11 “A true friend is important because he or she will be honest with you. If you do something wrong, true friends will point that out right away and believe that you can do better. However, fake ones will only talk about it behind your back. When you get hurt, true friends will care for you and comfort you from the bottom of their hearts. They will always be there to protect you. Fake friends may ask if you’re fine, but they don’t really care and will just walk away.” Contact us: Email: friendship@example.com Phone: 123-456-7890 26.

His parents were scientists, and Simon dreamed of becoming one too. He had one week to complete his report on bees. He would work really hard on it. It was a chance to study the behavior of bees, which he had always wanted to learn about. Simon walked into the house and found his four-year-old brother, Tom, playing on the floor with paper tubes (纸筒). “Simon, help me build a city!” Tom said “Sorry, I need to do a report on bees and I haven’t got any idea yet.” Simon replied. He walked into the yard, hoping to find the old beehive (蜂窝). There it was, among the firewood. It smelled like dry leaves and each cell (巢室) was six-sided. “How do bees manage to do that? Can they count?” Simon wondered, as he walked back to the living room while studying the beehive. Suddenly, a shout from Tom broke his thought, “Oh, no! I am destroying my city!” Tom had knocked over his water bottle and water was running all over his paper tubes. Simon sighed, “It’s okay, Tom. Accidents happen.” He got down and started picking up the wet tubes, comforting his little brother. Holding them together, he noticed there was one tube in the middle, with six others around it. The wet center tube was pushed into six-sided, just like the cells of the beehive! Just to be sure, he tried to put five and then seven tubes around the centre tube, but neither way fits. Six was the only number that worked. He said aloud, “Bees just build round cells and stick the sides together. The cells have to be six-sided.” His idea was finally coming together Simon looked at Tom cheerfully, “Tom, I know what to write in the report! And now I will build a model beehive with your tubes! Will you help me?” Tom, still in tears, looked up at Simon. “Really? You mean I can help?” He began picking out his finest tubes, a smile returning to his face. 29.

I hadn’t, until one day my five-year-old son asked me whether there was ham in a hamburger. There isn’t. This made me realize that there’s no egg in an eggplant either. Neither is there pine nor apple in a pineapple. This got me thinking how English can be a crazy language to learn. For example, we can build a building and paint a painting, but we take a photo. And when we are traveling, we say that we are in the car or the taxi, but on the train or bus! While we’re doing all this traveling, we can get seasick at sea, airsick in the air and carsick in a car, but we don’t get homesick when we get back home. And speaking of home, why aren’t homework and housework the same thing? If “hard” is the opposite of “soft”, why are “hardly” and “softly” not an opposing pair? If harmless actions are the opposite of harmful actions, why are shameless and shameful behaviors the same? When we look out of the window and see rain or snow, we can say “it’s raining” or “it’s snowing”. But when we see sunshine, we can’t say “it’s sunshining”. Even the smallest words can be confusing. When you see the capitalized “WHO” in a medical report, do you read it as the “who” in “Who’s that?” What about “IT”? You also have to wonder at the madness of a language in which a house can burn up as it burns down and in which you fill in a form by filling it out! English was invented by people, not computers, and it shows the imagination of our human beings. That is why when I wind up my watch, it starts; but when I wind up this passage, it ends. 33. What is the main purpose of the first paragraph? A. To discuss strange mistakes. B. To attract readers’ interest. C. To provide some suggestions. D. To show the rules of English words. 34. What can we learn from the examples in the text? A. “Burn up” is similar to “burn down”. B. “Shameful” is the opposite of “shameless”. C. “Wind up a passage” means to “start a passage”. D. “It is sunshining” is used when we see sunshine. 35. What does the writer want to tell us about English in the last paragraph? A. It should be made easier to learn. B. It is shaped by human creativity. C. It is too hard for computers to learn. D. It follows strict rules to build words. 36. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage? A. English, a crazy language B. Why is English educational? C. A practical language-English D. How can we learn English well? 【答案】33. B 34. A 35. B 36. A 【解析】 【导语】本文通过大量例子介绍了英语的独特和巧妙之处,让我们体会到英语词汇的灵活性、多样性和丰富性。 【33题详解】 推理判断题。根据“This got me thinking how English can be a crazy language to learn.”可知,通过一些有趣的单词来吸引读者的兴趣,故选B。 【34题详解】 细节理解题。根据“You also have to wonder at the madness of a language in which a house can burn up as it burns down and in which you fill in a form by filling it out!”可知,房子可以烧毁,因为它烧毁了,burn up与burn down意思相同,故选A。 【35题详解】 推理判断题。根据“English was invented by people, not computers, and it shows the imagination of our human beings.”可知,英语是人而不是电脑创造的,体现了人类的想象力与创造力,故选B。 【36题详解】 最佳标题题。根据全文内容可知,本文通过大量例子介绍了英语的独特和巧妙之处,选项A更能概括全文主旨,故选A。 (D) Twenty years ago, when Andrew Westbrook was in college, he had a hard time fixing his mind on class. He certainly had the ability to focus. For example, when he got lost in a good book, thinking felt easy. But when it came to some other mental (脑力的) tasks, thinking was like pulling teeth and his attention was off. Westbrook is now a scientist. His research is challenging old ideas about why we can’t keep our attention on certain tasks. For years, scientists thought that mentally tiring tasks like solving math problems required more energy than easier ones like looking out of the window. As a result, these harder tasks would make us run out of energy and lose focus more quickly. However, Westbrook’s research suggests our brain is always working hard. Even when we are just looking around a room, our brain is dealing with lots of information and using lots of energy. But we don’t find these tasks tiring. The real problem is that difficult tasks require different brain regions to work together in new patterns. The brain has to break out of its usual ways, which causes discomfort and makes these tasks seem harder than they really are. “Thinking about beginning a hard task feels harder than actually doing it,” Westbrook says. This early mental hurdle can lead us to put off the task or even avoid it. “If we can get over this hurdle, thinking will become easier,” he adds. Westbrook’s team has found ways to help us do that. For one, he suggests focusing on the good results of completing the task instead of how hard it will be. We can also try to get into “flow (心流)”. When people are in “flow”, they seem not to care how hard the task is. One key to entering “flow” is to reduce uncertainty. Before writing a book report, for example, you can set yourself a goal, like finishing it in 15 minutes. Finally, it can help to make these mentally tiring tasks a habit. Try doing them at the same time and place every day or week. After a few weeks, focusing on these tasks won’t just feel easier-it will be easier. 37. What was Andrew Westbrook’s problem in college? A. He was afraid of pulling teeth. B. He failed to focus on some tasks. C. He wasn’t smart enough to learn. D. He had a hard time reading books. 38. According to Westbrook, why do hard tasks cause discomfort? A. They go against the brain’s habits. B. They force the brain to work alone. C. They use more energy to an easy tasks. D. They require to deal with lots of information 39. What does the underlined phrase “mental hurdle” refer to? A. The joy in breaking usual ways. B. The worry about losing attention. C.

Some people find it easier to make and keep friends, while others wish they had closer friendships or wonder why a friendship didn’t work out. In fact, to build strong, lasting friendships, there are some important characters we should work on developing. Quiz: What kind of friend are you? 1. I am trustworthy. 2. I am honest with others. 3. I am generally very dependable. 4. I am loyal to the people I care about. 5. I am easily able to trust others. 6. I am a good listener. 7. I am supportive of others in their good or bad times. 8. I am self-confident. 9. I am usually able to see the humor in life. 10. I am fun to be around. Teens share: What’s the most important character in a friend? Howie Lin, 15 “In my opinion, humor is a must-have quality in a friend. Having a friend with a good sense of humor is like having a personal talk-show artist on call 24/7. I have a friend who always comes up with creative jokes. With him around, even the saddest days feel better.” Jasmine Cao, 13 “The most important thing I look for in a friend is having similar interests or hobbies to mine. I think this matters because these interests or hobbies can help us build a deeper connection. We may have a lot of fun memories together. For example, if we both love playing basketball, we can practice together, cheer each other up during games, and help each other improve. A true friend is someone who not only enjoys the same things as you but also stands by you, no matter what.” Claire Tan, 11 “A true friend is important because he or she will be honest with you. If you do something wrong, true friends will point that out right away and believe that you can do better. However, fake ones will only talk about it behind your back. When you get hurt, true friends will care for you and comfort you from the bottom of their hearts. They will always be there to protect you. Fake friends may ask if you’re fine, but they don’t really care and will just walk away.” Contact us: Email: friendship@example.com Phone: 123-456-7890 26.

Laugh at her friend in her mind. B. Try not to say anything about it. C. Tell her friend the mistake immediately. D. Talk about the mistake with other friends. 28. Where is the passage most probably from? A. A book of fun quizzes for teenagers. B. A science report about teenage growth. C. A teenagers’ magazine on healthy habits. D. An advice page for teenagers’ daily life. (B) As Simon walked home, he kept thinking about his science project. His parents were scientists, and Simon dreamed of becoming one too. He had one week to complete his report on bees. He would work really hard on it. It was a chance to study the behavior of bees, which he had always wanted to learn about. Simon walked into the house and found his four-year-old brother, Tom, playing on the floor with paper tubes (纸筒). “Simon, help me build a city!” Tom said “Sorry, I need to do a report on bees and I haven’t got any idea yet.” Simon replied. He walked into the yard, hoping to find the old beehive (蜂窝). There it was, among the firewood. It smelled like dry leaves and each cell (巢室) was six-sided. “How do bees manage to do that? Can they count?” Simon wondered, as he walked back to the living room while studying the beehive. Suddenly, a shout from Tom broke his thought, “Oh, no! I am destroying my city!” Tom had knocked over his water bottle and water was running all over his paper tubes. Simon sighed, “It’s okay, Tom. Accidents happen.” He got down and started picking up the wet tubes, comforting his little brother. Holding them together, he noticed there was one tube in the middle, with six others around it. The wet center tube was pushed into six-sided, just like the cells of the beehive! Just to be sure, he tried to put five and then seven tubes around the centre tube, but neither way fits. Six was the only number that worked. He said aloud, “Bees just build round cells and stick the sides together. The cells have to be six-sided.” His idea was finally coming together Simon looked at Tom cheerfully, “Tom, I know what to write in the report! And now I will build a model beehive with your tubes! Will you help me?” Tom, still in tears, looked up at Simon. “Really? You mean I can help?” He began picking out his finest tubes, a smile returning to his face. 29. Why didn’t Simon want to help Tom at first? A. He had a lot of homework to do. B. He thought Tom’s game was boring. C. He didn’t like playing with his brother. D. He was worried about his science project 30. How did Simon learn about the beehive? A By experimenting. B. By playing with Tom. C. By watching Tom playing. D. By asking parents for help. 31. In what order did Simon work on his project? a. He wrote a report. b. He built a model. c. He found the beehive. d. He put the tubes around the center one. e. He raised questions about the beehive! A. c-a-e-b-d B. e-b-d-a-c C. c-e-d-b-a D. e-d-c-a-b 32. Which of the following best describes Simon? A. Smart and brave. B. Creative but careless. C. Cheerful but forgetful. D. Hard-working and patient. (C) Have you ever asked yourself why people often have trouble learning English? I hadn’t, until one day my five-year-old son asked me whether there was ham in a hamburger. There isn’t. This made me realize that there’s no egg in an eggplant either. Neither is there pine nor apple in a pineapple. This got me thinking how English can be a crazy language to learn. For example, we can build a building and paint a painting, but we take a photo. And when we are traveling, we say that we are in the car or the taxi, but on the train or bus! While we’re doing all this traveling, we can get seasick at sea, airsick in the air and carsick in a car, but we don’t get homesick when we get back home. And speaking of home, why aren’t homework and housework the same thing? If “hard” is the opposite of “soft”, why are “hardly” and “softly” not an opposing pair? If harmless actions are the opposite of harmful actions, why are shameless and shameful behaviors the same? When we look out of the window and see rain or snow, we can say “it’s raining” or “it’s snowing”. But when we see sunshine, we can’t say “it’s sunshining”. Even the smallest words can be confusing. When you see the capitalized “WHO” in a medical report, do you read it as the “who” in “Who’s that?” What about “IT”? You also have to wonder at the madness of a language in which a house can burn up as it burns down and in which you fill in a form by filling it out! English was invented by people, not computers, and it shows the imagination of our human beings. That is why when I wind up my watch, it starts; but when I wind up this passage, it ends. 33 What is the main purpose of the first paragraph? A. To discuss strange mistakes. B. To attract readers’ interest. C. To provide some suggestions. D. To show the rules of English words. 34. What can we learn from the examples in the text? A. “Burn up” is similar to “burn down”. B. “Shameful” is the opposite of “shameless”. C. “Wind up a passage” means to “start a passage”. D. “It is sunshining” is used when we see sunshine. 35. What does the writer want to tell us about English in the last paragraph? A. It should be made easier to learn. B. It is shaped by human creativity. C. It is too hard for computers to learn. D. It follows strict rules to build words. 36. Which of the following can be the best title of the passage? A. English, a crazy language B. Why is English educational? C. A practical language-English D. How can we learn English well? (D) Twenty years ago, when Andrew Westbrook was in college, he had a hard time fixing his mind on class. He certainly had the ability to focus. For example, when he got lost in a good book, thinking felt easy. But when it came to some other mental (脑力的) tasks, thinking was like pulling teeth and his attention was off. Westbrook is now a scientist. His research is challenging old ideas about why we can’t keep our attention on certain tasks. For years, scientists thought that mentally tiring tasks like solving math problems required more energy than easier ones like looking out of the window. As a result, these harder tasks would make us run out of energy and lose focus more quickly. However, Westbrook’s research suggests our brain is always working hard. Even when we are just looking around a room, our brain is dealing with lots of information and using lots of energy. But we don’t find these tasks tiring. The real problem is that difficult tasks require different brain regions to work together in new patterns. The brain has to break out of its usual ways, which causes discomfort and makes these tasks seem harder than they really are. “Thinking about beginning a hard task feels harder than actually doing it,” Westbrook says. This early mental hurdle can lead us to put off the task or even avoid it. “If we can get over this hurdle, thinking will become easier,” he adds. Westbrook’s team has found ways to help us do that. For one, he suggests focusing on the good results of completing the task instead of how hard it will be. We can also try to get into “flow (心流)”. When people are in “flow”, they seem not to care how hard the task is. One key to entering “flow” is to reduce uncertainty. Before writing a book report, for example, you can set yourself a goal, like finishing it in 15 minutes. Finally, it can help to make these mentally tiring tasks a habit. Try doing them at the same time and place every day or week. After a few weeks, focusing on these tasks won’t just feel easier-it will be easier. 37. What was Andrew Westbrook’s problem in college? A. He was afraid of pulling teeth. B. He failed to focus on some tasks. C. He wasn’t smart enough to learn. D. He had a hard time reading books. 38. According to Westbrook, why do hard tasks cause discomfort? A. They go against the brain’s habits. B. They force the brain to work alone. C They use more energy to an easy tasks. D. They require to deal with lots of information 39. What does the underlined phrase “mental hurdle” refer to? A. The joy in breaking usual ways. B. The worry about losing attention. C. The fear of starting something hard. D. The excitement over avoiding challenges. 40. According to the text, how can we make mentally tiring tasks easier? A. Change places regularly. B. Work at different times. C. Set every task for 15 minutes. D. Consider the positive results. 第二节 阅读填空(共5小题;每小题1分,满分5分) 阅读短文及文后选项,选出可以填入空白处最佳选项,并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 If you have a dog, you probably feel a strong bond (纽带) with it. ____41____ They found that this bond may not only be important to kids, but also be important to dogs.
