This year, our birthday theme was “Discover the Pyramids”. “What about inviting Mary?” Nellie asked. Mary was a loner, and hadn’t made many friends, but she was better at math Pyramid than anyone else in class. “Hmm, she wears the same old trousers every day. How could she even afford a party dress?” After school the next day, Nellie handed me a box. “What’s that?” I asked. “My birthday gift from my aunt. I thought it would be nice to give this to Mary “Nellie said. I opened the box. Inside was a gift certificate (礼品券) for our favourite clothing store. “Wow,” I gasped. We both knew how many cute clothes that would buy. “So, are we going to just hand it to her?” “How embarrassing (尴尬的) that would be!” Nellie answered. She was right. Mary would be totally embarrassed if we gave her money for clothes. “What if we ask our teacher…” “Wait a second. I have an idea.” Nellie said. “What? What?” “I’m not going to tell you!” On the day of our party, Mary arrived, with—no surprise—the very old brown trousers. We sang, danced and ate biscuits. “And now for the big prize game, “Nellie said. Big prize? My mouth dropped. This was not in the plan. “The big prize game is like this: Tom and Sam were building pyramids… If their pyramids had to be 60 feet high, who would finish first?” A math game. Of course! Nellie winked (眨眼示意) at me. No one was surprised when Mary came up with the answer before anyone else and walked off with the box. The next week, Mary wore a new pair of trousers, and even a new dress. The whole time she had a big smile on her face. And so did we. 24. Whose birthday party was it? A. Mary’s. B. Nellie and the writer’s. C. Nellie’s aunt’s. D. Tom and Sam’s. 25. How did Nellie try to help Mary? A. By giving her the gift directly. B. By asking the teacher for help. C. By setting up a big prize game. D. By inviting her to the clothing store. 26. What can we learn from the passage? A. Everyone needs help. B. Friendship is necessary. C. Math skills lead to success in life. D. Helping others also pleases ourselves. In many ways, our memories define (定义) our sense of self. You first have a sense of yourself early in life, perhaps as young as 18 months, when you recognize that the little baby you see in the mirror is really you, and not another child. As you progress through childhood and into teenage years, you start to develop a set of views about your identity (身份), including how your body looks and performs, your abilities, your personality and your place in society. While we are growing up we start to create our own descriptions about the events we have gone through, or what I call the “life story”. Our identities are shaped by our life stories, as the memories of these stories gradually become a part of our sense of self. Of all these memories, the most important are “self-defining memories”. They are remembered most clearly and can help to build up our overall sense of self most greatly. Learning to recognize your own self-defining memories can help you gain important insights about your identity. The easiest way to discover your own self-defining memories is by thinking about the events in your life that you are most likely to tell other people about when they say “tell me a little about yourself”. However, self-defining memories are always changing as you experience more events. They may vary according to your age and what you care about in present life. In a study, scientists compared older adults with college students. They found that older adults were more likely to feel more positively (正面地) about their self-defining memories, even if the memories were of events that were negative in nature. A similar study also suggests that older adults have found ways to make sense out of their life stories. They turn memories of troubling events into positive stories, and in this way, they make peace with their past struggles (挣扎). For younger adults, troubling events cause them to experience more pain when they recall them. As scientists have discovered, a self-defining memory does not have to be positive in order for you to grow from it. It’s not the event, but the meaning you make out of the event, that affects (影响) your sense of well-being. Discovering your self-defining memories is an important step in dealing with your life experiences. By recognizing and making sense out of past events your identity can continue to grow and improve how you see yourself, both now, and in the future. 27. What can we learn from the passage? A. Our self-defining memories have little to do with age. B. Our own descriptions of life experiences shape our identity. C. We should share positive life stories when introducing ourselves. D. We start to have self-defining memories when we are 18 months old. 28. From the studies mentioned in Paragraph 5, we know ________. A. important events can be changed by time B. older adults have few troubling life events C. making sense out of memories helps us to grow D. self-discovery happens during positive experiences 29. Which would be the best title for the passage? A. Self-defining memories: How others get to know you B. Self-defining memories: A collection of pleasant memories C. Self-defining memories: A great way to understand yourself D. Self-defining memories: Describing your best self to the world When considering the kind of experience that makes life better, most people first think that happiness depends on experiencing pleasure: good food, good jobs, all the comforts that money can buy. If we couldn’t have these, we might as well sit in front of the television on a quiet evening. Pleasure is an important part of the quality of life, but by itself it doesn’t bring happiness. When people think further about what makes a worthy life, they tend (倾向于) to move beyond pleasant memories and begin to remember other events, other experiences that overlap (有重叠) pleasurable ones but fall into a group with a separate name: enjoyment. Enjoyable events take place when people have not only satisfied a need or met some earlier expectation, but also achieved something unexpected. Enjoyment is characterized by a sense of curiosity, of achievement. Playing a tennis game that improves one’s ability is enjoyable, as is reading a book that shows things in a new light, as is having a conversation that leads us to express ideas we didn’t know we had. None of these experiences may be especially pleasurable when they are taking place, but when we think back on them afterwards, we would say, “That really was fun” and wish they would happen again. After an enjoyable event we know that we have changed, and grown. Experiences that give pleasure can also give enjoyment, but the two feelings are quite different. For example, everybody takes pleasure in eating. However, to enjoy food is more difficult — you have to pay enough attention to a meal, so as to sense and tell its various tastes. As this example suggests, we can experience pleasure without any psychic energy, while enjoyment happens only as a result of full attention. A person can feel pleasure without any effort, as long as certain parts in his brain are stimulated (刺激). But it’s impossible to enjoy a tennis game or a book without full attention. It’s for this reason that pleasure does not last long, nor does it make us grow. Growth requires full attention to goals that are new, that are relatively challenging. Without enjoyment, life will go on, and it can even be pleasant. But it depends heavily on luck and the external (外部的) environment. To achieve personal control over the quality of experience, however, we need to learn how to build enjoyment into what happens day in, day out. 30. You will most probably experience enjoyment when you ________. A. buy expensive shoes B. order a delicious meal C. talk with friends for new ideas D. sit quietly in front of a television 31. What do you know about pleasure and enjoyment from the passage? A. Enjoyment grows out of pleasure. B. Pleasure and enjoyment come hand in hand. C. Pleasurable experiences are part of enjoyable ones. D. Some experiences provide both pleasure and enjoyment. 32. The words “psychic energy” in Paragraph 4 are closest in meaning to ________. A. attention B. interest C. ability D. knowledge 33. The writer probably agrees that ________. A. feeling pleasure stops people from achieving growth B. feeling enjoyment comes with achieving growth C. a worthy life depends on luck and environment D. pleasure is the key to a happy and worthy life 四.阅读表达 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 My 100 Days Without a Mobile Phone When was the last time you left home without your mobile phone? Can you imagine yourself living a month, or even a year without checking your mobile phone from time to time? As a busy modern person with lots of social connections, plans and responsibilities, I just cannot afford to not be in touch with the rest of the world. Staying connected to other people is a big part of my life. However, sometimes it can be bothersome (恼人). One day I discovered I was terribly tired out. I tried turning notifications (通知) off. But the fear of missing out something important made me check the phone more often than before. So, I simply stopped using my phone. Well, to tell the truth, it was not simple at all. For the first couple of days, I had a big fear that all of my friends would soon forget about me. When I had a free moment, I had no idea what to get myself distracted (分心的) with, and the worries mixed with boredom kept bothering me. However, after three weeks without a mobile phone, I started noticing changes — changes which I liked, and which drove me to not just continue the experiment, but in fact to reorganize some of my habits. First of all, I noticed that I became much more focused (专注的). Before, while doing something, I would often find myself wondering what was going on online. After a month of staying away from my mobile phone, I found that the urge (冲动) was already not that strong and that my ability to focus improved. I discovered that the world is a beautiful place. Before, I would look at it through my camera mostly: take a photo, post it, get some likes. Now, I saw beautiful people walking around and I sensed the seasons change. I could understand the actual beauty of the world, and I did not need anyone else to prove the value of this beauty through likes or shares. Now, as 100 days have passed, I can say that the experiment was worth it. I am planning to stay away from my phone for as long as possible. 34. What made the writer check the phone more often than before? ___________________________________________ 35. When did the writer start noticing his changes? ___________________________________________ 36. What does the writer plan to do with his phone after the experiment? ___________________________________________ 37. Would you like to follow the writer’s example? Why or why not? (Please give two reasons.) ___________________________________________ 五、文段表达 38. 榜样的力量是无穷的。 假如你是李华，你所在的国际学校打算在其公众号上做校园榜样人物的系列推送，现就 “Role Models in Our School (校园榜样)”这一话题在校内搜集素材。请你用英语给公众号投稿，推荐一位校园榜样人物，对其作简要介绍，并说明推荐理由。 提示词语： kind, hardworking, difficulty, help, keep 提示问题：● Who do you think can be our school role model?

How could she even afford a party dress?” After school the next day, Nellie handed me a box. “What’s that?” I asked. “My birthday gift from my aunt. I thought it would be nice to give this to Mary, “Nellie said. I opened the box. Inside was a gift certificate (礼品券) for our favourite clothing store. “Wow,” I gasped. We both knew how many cute clothes that would buy. “So, are we going to just hand it to her?” “How embarrassing (尴尬的) that would be!” Nellie answered. She was right. Mary would be totally embarrassed if we gave her money for clothes. “What if we ask our teacher…” “Wait a second. I have an idea.” Nellie said. “What? What?” “I’m not going to tell you!” On the day of our party, Mary arrived, with—no surprise—the very old brown trousers. We sang, danced and ate biscuits. “And now for the big prize game, “Nellie said. Big prize? My mouth dropped. This was not in the plan. “The big prize game is like this: Tom and Sam were building pyramids… If their pyramids had to be 60 feet high, who would finish first?” A math game. Of course! Nellie winked (眨眼示意) at me. No one was surprised when Mary came up with the answer before anyone else and walked off with the box.

You first have a sense of yourself early in life, perhaps as young as 18 months, when you recognize that the little baby you see in the mirror is really you, and not another child. As you progress through childhood and into teenage years, you start to develop a set of views about your identity (身份), including how your body looks and performs, your abilities, your personality and your place in society. While we are growing up, we start to create our own descriptions about the events we have gone through, or what I call the “life story”. Our identities are shaped by our life stories, as the memories of these stories gradually become a part of our sense of self. Of all these memories, the most important are “self-defining memories”. They are remembered most clearly and can help to build up our overall sense of self most greatly. Learning to recognize your own self-defining memories can help you gain important insights about your identity. The easiest way to discover your own self-defining memories is by thinking about the events in your life that you are most likely to tell other people about when they say “tell me a little about yourself”. However, self-defining memories are always changing as you experience more events. They may vary according to your age and what you care about in present life. In a study, scientists compared older adults with college students. They found that older adults were more likely to feel more positively (正面地) about their self-defining memories, even if the memories were of events that were negative in nature. A similar study also suggests that older adults have found ways to make sense out of their life stories. They turn memories of troubling events into positive stories, and in this way, they make peace with their past struggles (挣扎). For younger adults, troubling events cause them to experience more pain when they recall them. As scientists have discovered, a self-defining memory does not have to be positive in order for you to grow from it. It’s not the event, but the meaning you make out of the event, that affects (影响) your sense of well-being. Discovering your self-defining memories is an important step in dealing with your life experiences. By recognizing and making sense out of past events, your identity can continue to grow and improve how you see yourself, both now, and in the future. 27. What can we learn from the passage? A. Our self-defining memories have little to do with age. B. Our own descriptions of life experiences shape our identity. C. We should share positive life stories when introducing ourselves. D. We start to have self-defining memories when we are 18 months old. 28. From the studies mentioned in Paragraph 5, we know ________. A. important events can be changed by time B. older adults have few troubling life events C. making sense out of memories helps us to grow D. self-discovery happens during positive experiences 29. Which would be the best title for the passage? A. Self-defining memories: How others get to know you B. Self-defining memories: A collection of pleasant memories C. Self-defining memories: A great way to understand yourself D. Self-defining memories: Describing your best self to the world 【答案】27. B 28. C 29. C 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了我们的记忆通过多种方式定义我们的自我意识。 【27题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Our identities are shaped by our life stories, as the memories of these stories gradually become a part of our sense of self.”可知，我们自己对生活经历的描述塑造了我们的身份。故选B。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据“In a study, scientists compared older adults with college students.

If we couldn’t have these, we might as well sit in front of the television on a quiet evening. Pleasure is an important part of the quality of life, but by itself it doesn’t bring happiness. When people think further about what makes a worthy life, they tend (倾向于) to move beyond pleasant memories and begin to remember other events, other experiences that overlap (有重叠) pleasurable ones but fall into a group with a separate name: enjoyment. Enjoyable events take place when people have not only satisfied a need or met some earlier expectation, but also achieved something unexpected. Enjoyment is characterized by a sense of curiosity, of achievement. Playing a tennis game that improves one’s ability is enjoyable, as is reading a book that shows things in a new light, as is having a conversation that leads us to express ideas we didn’t know we had. None of these experiences may be especially pleasurable when they are taking place, but when we think back on them afterwards, we would say, “That really was fun” and wish they would happen again. After an enjoyable event we know that we have changed, and grown. Experiences that give pleasure can also give enjoyment, but the two feelings are quite different. For example, everybody takes pleasure in eating. However, to enjoy food is more difficult — you have to pay enough attention to a meal, so as to sense and tell its various tastes. As this example suggests, we can experience pleasure without any psychic energy, while enjoyment happens only as a result of full attention. A person can feel pleasure without any effort, as long as certain parts in his brain are stimulated (刺激). But it’s impossible to enjoy a tennis game or a book without full attention. It’s for this reason that pleasure does not last long, nor does it make us grow. Growth requires full attention to goals that are new, that are relatively challenging. Without enjoyment, life will go on, and it can even be pleasant. But it depends heavily on luck and the external (外部的) environment. To achieve personal control over the quality of experience, however, we need to learn how to build enjoyment into what happens day in, day out. 30. You will most probably experience enjoyment when you ________. A. buy expensive shoes B. order a delicious meal C. talk with friends for new ideas D. sit quietly in front of a television 31. What do you know about pleasure and enjoyment from the passage? A. Enjoyment grows out of pleasure. B. Pleasure and enjoyment come hand in hand. C. Pleasurable experiences are part of enjoyable ones. D. Some experiences provide both pleasure and enjoyment. 32. The words “psychic energy” in Paragraph 4 are closest in meaning to ________. A. attention B. interest C. ability D. knowledge 33 The writer probably agrees that ________. A. feeling pleasure stops people from achieving growth B. feeling enjoyment comes with achieving growth C. a worthy life depends on luck and environment D. pleasure is the key to a happy and worthy life 【答案】30. C 31. D 32. A 33. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述了快乐和享受的联系和对比。 【30题详解】 推理判断题。根据“Playing a tennis game that improves one’s ability is enjoyable, as is reading a book that shows things in a new light, as is having a conversation that leads us to express ideas we didn’t know we had.”可知打一场能提高一个人能力的网球是令人愉快的，就像读一本从新的角度看待事物的书一样，就像进行一场能让我们表达自己不知道自己拥有的想法的谈话一样。由此推出当你和朋友谈论新想法时，你很可能会体验到乐趣。故选C。 【31题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Experiences that give pleasure can also give enjoyment, but the two feelings are quite different.”可知有些经历既能带来愉悦，又能带来享受。故选D。 【32题详解】 词义猜测题。根据“As this example suggests, we can experience pleasure without any psychic energy, while enjoyment happens only as a result of full attention.”可知正如这个例子所表明的，我们可以在没有任何精神能量的情况下体验快乐，而享受只有在全神贯注的情况下才会发生。psychic energy与attention意思相近。故选A。 【33题详解】 观点态度题。根据“Enjoyment is characterized by a sense of curiosity, of achievement.”以及“Growth requires full attention to goals that are new, that are relatively challenging.”可知作者会赞成“感到快乐与得到成长是相辅相成的”这一观点。故选B。 四.阅读表达 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 My 100 Days Without a Mobile Phone When was the last time you left home without your mobile phone? Can you imagine yourself living a month, or even a year without checking your mobile phone from time to time? As a busy modern person with lots of social connections, plans and responsibilities, I just cannot afford to not be in touch with the rest of the world. Staying connected to other people is a big part of my life. However, sometimes it can be bothersome (恼人). One day I discovered I was terribly tired out. I tried turning notifications (通知) off. But the fear of missing out something important made me check the phone more often than before. So, I simply stopped using my phone. Well, to tell the truth, it was not simple at all. For the first couple of days, I had a big fear that all of my friends would soon forget about me. When I had a free moment, I had no idea what to get myself distracted (分心的) with, and the worries mixed with boredom kept bothering me. However, after three weeks without a mobile phone, I started noticing changes — changes which I liked, and which drove me to not just continue the experiment, but in fact to reorganize some of my habits. First of all, I noticed that I became much more focused (专注的). Before, while doing something, I would often find myself wondering what was going on online. After a month of staying away from my mobile phone, I found that the urge (冲动) was already not that strong and that my ability to focus improved. I discovered that the world is a beautiful place. Before, I would look at it through my camera mostly: take a photo, post it, get some likes. Now, I saw beautiful people walking around and I sensed the seasons change. I could understand the actual beauty of the world, and I did not need anyone else to prove the value of this beauty through likes or shares. Now, as 100 days have passed, I can say that the experiment was worth it. I am planning to stay away from my phone for as long as possible. 34. What made the writer check the phone more often than before? ___________________________________________ 35. When did the writer start noticing his changes? ___________________________________________ 36. What does the writer plan to do with his phone after the experiment? ___________________________________________ 37. Would you like to follow the writer’s example? Why or why not? (Please give two reasons.) ___________________________________________ 【答案】34. The fear of missing out something important. 35. After three weeks. 36. Stay away from the phone for as long as possible. 37. Yes, I’d like to. Because I also want to be more focused, and I would like to see the beautiful world through my eyes./No. Because I can use the phone to know more news about the world. And I can play games in my free time. 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，主要讲述了作者100天不使用手机的经历，一开始不使用手机会让人很焦虑，但是三周后发生了很多可喜的变化，作者注意力更集中，可以更好地发现这个世界的美。 【34题详解】 根据“But the fear of missing out something important made me check the phone more often than before.”可知害怕错过重要的消息让作者查看手机更频繁了。故填The fear of missing out something important. 【35题详解】 根据“However, after three weeks without a mobile phone, I started noticing changes — changes which I liked, and which drove me to not just continue the experiment, but in fact to reorganize some of my habits.”可知三周后作者开始注意到自己的改变。故填After three weeks. 【36题详解】 根据“I am planning to stay away from my phone for as long as possible.”可知作者计划尽可能长时间地远离手机。故填Stay away from the phone for as long as possible. 【37题详解】 主观发挥题，言之有理即可。故填Yes, I’d like to.
