According to our national survey, as many as 88. 9 percent of young people often use the Internet to study. They see the Internet as a sea of knowledge. How are today’s teenagers making good use of online resources(资源)? Here’s the report. Zhang Enqi, a 14-year-old from Tianjin I love using Duolingo. It is an App where users can learn foreign languages in a fun way. The teachers are cute cartoon characters, which makes the learning process interesting. There are also ranking lists that encourage me to learn and compete with friends, just like playing a game. Now I’m using it to learn Spanish. Li Shuhe, a 14-year-old from Shanxi I often use wikiHow. There are over 160, 000 articles that teach you how to solve all kinds of problems, from solving a Rubik’s Cube to fixing a toilet. It even teaches you how to have fun by yourself, which I find quite creative. Zhou Cai, a 15-year-old from Shandong Though Douyin is often seen as a time waster, the short video App helps me a lot. I’ve been following a Douyin account, which summarizes all the important points of our biology lessons. I watched livestreams(直播) of classes and before exams I spent some time reviewing the notes. I got the best grade in my class in the recent biology exam! 1. Who love(s) using an App to learn foreign languages? A. Zhang Enqi. B. Li Shuhe. C. Zhou Cai. D. Zhang Enqi and Zhou Cai. 2. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. WikiHow can teach you how to make things. B. The short video App is always a time waste. C. Only a few young students use the Internet to study. D. The three teenagers all think that online resources are useful. 3. What’s the purpose of the report? A. To tell how young people use the Internet to learn. B. To tell how young people use the Internet to relax themselves. C. To tell how schools keep students away from the Internet. D. To tell how parents teach teenagers to make use of the Internet. 【答案】1. A 2. D 3. A 【解析】 【导语】本文主要是以三个人的例子说明青年学生如何利用网络资源。 【1题详解】 细节理解题。根据“I love using Duolingo. It is an Appwhere users can learn foreign languages in a fun way.”，可知张恩齐利用应用软件学习外国语言，故选A。 【2题详解】 推理判断题。根据“It is an App where users can learn foreign languages in a fun way.”, “It even teaches you how to have fun by yourself, which I find quite creative.”和“the short video App helps me a lot.”，可知三位青少年都认为网络资源很有用，故选D。 【3题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“How are today’s teenagers making good use of online resources(资源)?”以及下文三位青少年的例子，可知本文主要是讲青年学生如何利用网络资源来学习，故选A。 B About 80 percent of Chinese university students believe they have SAD—social anxiety disorder (社交恐惧症), according to a survey of over 4, 800 students by the China Youth Daily in November last year. But do you really have SAD or you are just being introverted (内向的)? Here is something you need to know. Being introverted is one kind of your personality while SAD can be a serious illness. If you are introverted, you may not like or it may take time to warm up in a group. However, if you have SAD, you will be really seriously nervous when you face or even think about social situations, and this will possibly cause more problems, including a fear for parties or other social activities. Introverted people will use their free time to relax before or after social activities. They may read or get prepared for the coming activities when they are alone. For those with SAD, taking part in an activity might cause fear or stress. Some may even feel really sick, for example, a high blood pressure or a sudden stomachache. When it comes to public speaking, introverted people hate the meaningless talk after the event, but they may not hate the speech itself. For those living with SAD, standing in front of a group is a problem for them. They are often afraid that they’ll say the wrong thing and some may not be able to control the shake of their bodies. You’d better go to an expert for advice if you guess you have SAD. Actually, most of you will find that you are simply a bit introverted. And for those who have real problems as SAD, it is possible to get out of the problem with proper ways. 4. How does the writer help the readers understand SAD and introversion? A. By explaining the causes. B. By asking questions. C. By using numbers. D. By making comparisons. 5. Which one of the following students can possibly have SAD according to the passage? A. Lucy always listens to music before making a public speech. B. Tom feels a little difficult to excite himself at the beginning of parties. C. Jim cannot stop shaking whenever thinking of going to a party. D. Lily enjoys the feeling of standing in front of a group. 6. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Most of the university students have SAD in fact. B. A person with a sudden stomachache must have SAD. C. Serious SAD may cause a high blood pressure. D. A person with SAD always says wrong things. 7. In which part of magazine can you read this kind of passage? A. Health. B. Technology. C. Culture. D. News. 【答案】4. D 5. C 6. C 7. A 【解析】 【导语】本文通过对比社交恐惧症（SAD）与内向性格的差异，说明SAD是一种需专业干预的疾病，而非普通性格特征，并指出多数自认有SAD的人实际只是内向。 【4题详解】 推理判断题。全文通过并列对比SAD与内向在社交场合反应、独处状态和公开演讲表现三方面的差异，来帮助读者理解SAD和内向，故选D。 【5题详解】 细节理解题。根据“For those with SAD, taking part in an activity might cause fear or stress. Some may even feel really sick, for example, a high blood pressure or a sudden stomachache.”及“For those living with SAD, standing in front of a group is a problem for them. They are often afraid that they’ll say the wrong thing and some may not be able to control the shake of their bodies.”可知，SAD患者参与活动会恐惧或压力大，甚至出现高血压、腹痛，公开演讲时身体不受控颤抖，选项C“吉姆一想到要去参加晚会就不停地发抖。”符合该症状，故选C。 【6题详解】 细节理解题。根据“For those with SAD, taking part in an activity might cause fear or stress. Some may even feel really sick, for example, a high blood pressure or a sudden stomachache.”可知，SAD可能引发高血压，故选C。 【7题详解】 推理判断题。全文聚焦心理健康议题，区分病理性的SAD与性格层面的内向，并提供就医建议，属于健康科普范畴，故选A。 C My parents love the saying “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again” so much that they actually bought a cup with those words on it. But I was lately in a situation where I was so ready to give up. Last week, my friend Tony and I were helping his grandmother Amy carry boxes upstairs. “What’s in the big old trunk (行李箱)?” said Tony. “I don’t know. I can’t find the key,” Amy said. “We’d need a master locksmith (锁匠) to open it.” “I want to try,” said Tony. “Maybe there’s a treasure inside!” He tried every tool but failed. Tony said, “I guess we have to give up.” “But we can’t give up!” I said. “What about ‘If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again’?” Just then, my little sister Betty showed up and found the trunk. “It looks like a boat!” Betty climbed on top. She laughed as she jumped up and down. And right then, a screw (螺丝) from a hinge (铰链) rolled to the floor. “I’ve got it!” said Tony. “We could probably remove (去掉) the hinges!” In two minutes, we were looking inside that trunk. “Lots and lots of shoes!” We were pretty upset. But here’s the good news. Those shoes can be sold for the homeless. I found out that doing something the same way over and over isn’t always the best way to get results. It can help to stop and try something different. 8. Why did the writer keep trying unlocking the truck? A. Because he wanted the treasure inside. B. Because he wanted to show his wisdom. C. Because he didn’t want to give up easily. D. Because he didn’t want to be looked down on. 9. What does the underlined word “it” refer to in Paragraph 4? A. The tool to open the trunk. B. The key to the trunk. C. The way to play on the trunk. D. The way to open the trunk. 10. What was the good news after they opened the trunk? A. There were treasures in the trunk. B. Ollie’s grandmother thanked them. C. The pretty shoes were fit for themselves. D. The shoes could be sold to help the homeless. 11. What’s the correct order of the following events? a. We found a big old trunk. b. We found we could remove the hinges. c. We opened the trunk and got the “treasures” in it. d. We failed to unlock the trunk after trying many ways. A. d-a-b-c B. a-d-b-c C. d-b-a-c D. b-a-c-d 【答案】8. C 9. D 10. D 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文主要讲述作者和朋友托尼帮托尼的祖母打开一个旧行李箱的故事。 【8题详解】 细节理解题。根据第三段“‘But we can’t give up!’ I said. ‘What about ‘If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again’?’”可知，作者坚持尝试打开行李箱是因为不想轻易放弃。故选C。 【9题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第四段“‘I’ve got it!’ said Tony. ‘We could probably remove the hinges!’”可知，托尼说“找到了”指的是找到了打开行李箱的方法，即拆掉铰链。故选D。 【10题详解】 细节理解题。根据第五段“Those shoes can be sold for the homeless.”可知，打开行李箱后的好消息是这些鞋子可以卖掉帮助无家可归的人。故选D。 【11题详解】 推理判断题。通读全文可知，事件顺序为：首先发现一个大旧行李箱a，尝试很多方法没打开d，后来发现可以拆掉铰链b，最后打开箱子得到里面的宝藏c。正确顺序为a-d-b-c。故选B。 D ①Have you ever felt like you are just running from one activity to another? In school, do you hurry from one subject to another? When things happen so fast, it’s easy to get lost of what you’re doing or learning. It’s important to stop yourself every now and then to think about what you’ve been doing or learning. ②Self-reflection (反省) means slowing down and cooling yourself down, including calming your mind. By being calm and not going quickly, you give your brain a chance to think about what is already received. Some people like to do self-reflections only in their mind. Others write down in diaries or notes. Either way works, depending on your own personal learning. You can follow the steps to do self-reflection. ③First, choose the proper time to do it. School textbooks are divided (划分) into units of study. This makes it easier to begin self-reflection. Look for time when you complete a unit of study. Sometimes you know the unit is over because there is some kind of test. Use these natural breaks to stop and do self-reflection. ④Then, find a quiet place and take out your reflection diary. Write down some notes on the new things that you learned in the unit. Let your mind think about the notes you’ve written before and make some connections (联系). ⑤Finally, think about things that you’re not sure of. Maybe you learned a new way to work out a math problem, but you’re not sure when to use it. Writing down your questions will help you remember to look for answers the next time you are working with the same topic. ⑥Self-reflection is important for a successful student. If you have never taken the time to do self-reflection try it now. 12. According to Paragraph 2, how can people do self-reflection? A. Work quickly. B. Think about the future. C. Keep a diary. D. Learn by oneself. 13. Which of the following is a right way of doing self-reflection? A. When the exam of each unit ends, Mary will start learning the next very soon. B. Cindy writes down some notes after class and then goes to play with classmates. C. Mike looks through his new notes and then checks the notes he has taken before. D. After finding a new way to solve a science problem, Tony uses it as often as possible. 14. Which can be the best title for the passage? A. Why is Self-reflection Important? B. Try Doing Self-Refection Now! C. How Can We Learn Fast? D. Keep Ourselves Busy! 15. What is the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 【答案】12. C 13. C 14. B 15. B 【解析】 【导语】本文通过指出快速学习的弊端，提出“自我反省”作为解决方案，并详细说明其定义、步骤和重要性，最终呼吁读者立即实践。 【12题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Some people like to do self-reflections only in their mind. Others write down in diaries or notes.”可知，写日记是自我反省的一种方式。故选C。 【13题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Write down some notes on the new things that you learned in the unit. Let your mind think about the notes you’ve written before and make some connections (联系).”可知，写下你在本单元学到的新东西。让你的大脑想想你之前写过的笔记，并建立一些联系，C项“迈克看了看他的新笔记，然后检查他以前做过的笔记。”是正确的自我反省方式。故选C。 【14题详解】 最佳标题题。根据文章内容可知，本文强调自我反省的重要性，同 时也给出了具体步骤，由此我们可知，作者实际上是在呼吁大家在快节奏的生活中自我反 省，理清思路。所以B项“现在就试着自我反省吧！”适合作标题。故选B。 【15题详解】 篇章结构题。通过全文可知，第一段先写人们处 于快节奏的状态，需要停下来思考；第二段正式引出主旨，即自我反省，并论述了什么是自 我反省，以及反省的方式；第三段到第五段，是自我反省的具体步骤；第六段是总结，强调自我反省的重要性。所以一、二、六段独立， 三到五段并列。故选B。 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读以下材料，然后从文后所给的五个选项中选择正确的选项，完成1—4小题 (有一项为多余项)，并结合文本内容回答第5题。 Sit back and get relaxed! These days, we easily feel stressed as we get more and more work to do. It’s important to know how to solve problems and find ways to relax. First, we should try organizing our work from most important to least important as well as most urgent (紧急的) to least urgent. 1 As soon as those are done, work on things that are important but not urgent. Then, do things that are less important and less urgent. This makes us know what to do first and not worry about the rest. Still, sometimes we feel stressed even after organizing our work. That’s okay. 2 Because exercise helps a lot in forgetting about our problems. It doesn’t even have to be a big trip to the gym, although that surely helps. It could be something as small as walking around the neighborhood for 10 to 20 minutes. Finally, we can try meditation (冥想). 3 Just set aside 10 to 20 minutes with an alarm clock, sit straight, close our eyes, and focus only on breathing. If other thoughts come up, accept that they are there and let them fly away on their own. 4 By trying these steps, we will certainly feel peaceful when finishing all of the work. A. How can we do that? B. It is not easy to get work organized. C. Try to add some exercise into our weekly plan. D. Both our body and mind can get relaxed this way. E. If some problems are both important and urgent, do those things first. 16. ________ 17. ________ 18. ________ 19. ________ 20. Which way is better for you to get relaxed? Why? (about 20 words) _________________________________________________ 【答案】16. E 17. C 18. A 19. D 20. Meditation is better for me, because it makes me calm down and feel peaceful. 【解析】 【导语】本文介绍了感到工作的压力时，如何解决问题和找到方法去放松。 【16题详解】 根据“As soon as those are done, work on things that are important but not urgent.”可知，这些事情一做完，就去做重要但不紧急的事情。由此可知空处应表示先做紧急的事情，E选项“如果有些问题既重要又紧急，那就先做那些事情”符合语境。故选E。 【17题详解】 根据“Because exercise helps a lot in forgetting about our problems.”可知，因为锻炼可以帮助我们忘记我们的问题。由此可知空处与锻炼有关，C选项“试着在我们的每周计划中增加一些锻炼”符合语境。故选C。 【18题详解】 根据“Just set aside 10 to 20 minutes with an alarm clock, sit straight, close our eyes, and focus only on breathing.”可知，拨出10到20分钟的时间，坐直，闭上眼睛，专注于呼吸。由此可知空处应与如何冥想有关，A选项“我们可以怎么做”符合语境。故选A。 【19题详解】 根据“If other thoughts come up, accept that they are there and let them fly away on their own.”可知，如果其他想法出现，接受它们的存在，让它们自己飞走。由此可知，空处介绍这样做的好处，D选项“通过这种方式，身心都会得到放松”符合语境。故选D。 【20题详解】 本题答案不唯一，言之有理即可。Meditation is better for me, because it makes me calm down and feel peaceful. 第三部分 英语知识运用（共两节，满分25分） 第一节：完形填空（共15小题，每小题1分，满分15分） 通读下面短文，掌握其大意，然后在各题所给的四个选项（A、B、C和D）中选出一个最佳选项。 Once upon a time, a king was going to fight against a strong enemy.

According to our national survey, as many as 88. 9 percent of young people often use the Internet to study. They see the Internet as a sea of knowledge. How are today’s teenagers making good use of online resources(资源)? Here’s the report. Zhang Enqi, a 14-year-old from Tianjin I love using Duolingo. It is an App where users can learn foreign languages in a fun way. The teachers are cute cartoon characters, which makes the learning process interesting. There are also ranking lists that encourage me to learn and compete with friends, just like playing a game. Now I’m using it to learn Spanish. Li Shuhe, a 14-year-old from Shanxi I often use wikiHow. There are over 160, 000 articles that teach you how to solve all kinds of problems, from solving a Rubik’s Cube to fixing a toilet. It even teaches you how to have fun by yourself, which I find quite creative. Zhou Cai, a 15-year-old from Shandong Though Douyin is often seen as a time waster, the short video App helps me a lot. I’ve been following a Douyin account, which summarizes all the important points of our biology lessons. I watched livestreams(直播) of classes and before exams I spent some time reviewing the notes. I got the best grade in my class in the recent biology exam! 1. Who love(s) using an App to learn foreign languages? A. Zhang Enqi. B. Li Shuhe. C. Zhou Cai. D. Zhang Enqi and Zhou Cai. 2. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. WikiHow can teach you how to make things. B. The short video App is always a time waste. C. Only a few young students use the Internet to study. D. The three teenagers all think that online resources are useful. 3. What’s the purpose of the report? A. To tell how young people use the Internet to learn. B. To tell how young people use the Internet to relax themselves. C. To tell how schools keep students away from the Internet. D. To tell how parents teach teenagers to make use of the Internet. B About 80 percent of Chinese university students believe they have SAD—social anxiety disorder (社交恐惧症), according to a survey of over 4, 800 students by the China Youth Daily in November last year. But do you really have SAD or you are just being introverted (内向的)? Here is something you need to know. Being introverted is one kind of your personality while SAD can be a serious illness. If you are introverted, you may not like or it may take time to warm up in a group. However, if you have SAD, you will be really seriously nervous when you face or even think about social situations, and this will possibly cause more problems, including a fear for parties or other social activities. Introverted people will use their free time to relax before or after social activities. They may read or get prepared for the coming activities when they are alone. For those with SAD, taking part in an activity might cause fear or stress. Some may even feel really sick, for example, a high blood pressure or a sudden stomachache. When it comes to public speaking, introverted people hate the meaningless talk after the event, but they may not hate the speech itself. For those living with SAD, standing in front of a group is a problem for them. They are often afraid that they’ll say the wrong thing and some may not be able to control the shake of their bodies. You’d better go to an expert for advice if you guess you have SAD. Actually, most of you will find that you are simply a bit introverted. And for those who have real problems as SAD, it is possible to get out of the problem with proper ways. 4. How does the writer help the readers understand SAD and introversion? A. By explaining the causes. B. By asking questions. C. By using numbers. D. By making comparisons. 5. Which one of the following students can possibly have SAD according to the passage? A. Lucy always listens to music before making a public speech. B. Tom feels a little difficult to excite himself at the beginning of parties. C. Jim cannot stop shaking whenever thinking of going to a party. D. Lily enjoys the feeling of standing in front of a group. 6. Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A. Most of the university students have SAD in fact. B. A person with a sudden stomachache must have SAD. C Serious SAD may cause a high blood pressure. D. A person with SAD always says wrong things. 7. In which part of magazine can you read this kind of passage? A. Health. B. Technology. C. Culture. D. News. C My parents love the saying “If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again” so much that they actually bought a cup with those words on it. But I was lately in a situation where I was so ready to give up. Last week, my friend Tony and I were helping his grandmother Amy carry boxes upstairs. “What’s in the big old trunk (行李箱)?” said Tony. “I don’t know. I can’t find the key,” Amy said. “We’d need a master locksmith (锁匠) to open it.” “I want to try,” said Tony. “Maybe there’s a treasure inside!” He tried every tool but failed. Tony said, “I guess we have to give up.” “But we can’t give up!” I said. “What about ‘If at first you don’t succeed, try, try again’?” Just then, my little sister Betty showed up and found the trunk. “It looks like a boat!” Betty climbed on top. She laughed as she jumped up and down. And right then, a screw (螺丝) from a hinge (铰链) rolled to the floor. “I’ve got it!” said Tony. “We could probably remove (去掉) the hinges!” In two minutes, we were looking inside that trunk. “Lots and lots of shoes!” We were pretty upset. But here’s the good news. Those shoes can be sold for the homeless. I found out that doing something the same way over and over isn’t always the best way to get results. It can help to stop and try something different. 8. Why did the writer keep trying unlocking the truck? A. Because he wanted the treasure inside. B. Because he wanted to show his wisdom. C Because he didn’t want to give up easily. D. Because he didn’t want to be looked down on. 9. What does the underlined word “it” refer to in Paragraph 4? A. The tool to open the trunk. B. The key to the trunk. C. The way to play on the trunk. D. The way to open the trunk. 10. What was the good news after they opened the trunk? A. There were treasures in the trunk. B. Ollie’s grandmother thanked them. C. The pretty shoes were fit for themselves. D. The shoes could be sold to help the homeless. 11. What’s the correct order of the following events? a We found a big old trunk. b. We found we could remove the hinges. c. We opened the trunk and got the “treasures” in it. d. We failed to unlock the trunk after trying many ways. A. d-a-b-c B. a-d-b-c C. d-b-a-c D. b-a-c-d D ①Have you ever felt like you are just running from one activity to another? In school, do you hurry from one subject to another? When things happen so fast, it’s easy to get lost of what you’re doing or learning. It’s important to stop yourself every now and then to think about what you’ve been doing or learning. ②Self-reflection (反省) means slowing down and cooling yourself down, including calming your mind. By being calm and not going quickly, you give your brain a chance to think about what is already received. Some people like to do self-reflections only in their mind. Others write down in diaries or notes. Either way works, depending on your own personal learning. You can follow the steps to do self-reflection. ③First, choose the proper time to do it. School textbooks are divided (划分) into units of study. This makes it easier to begin self-reflection. Look for time when you complete a unit of study. Sometimes you know the unit is over because there is some kind of test. Use these natural breaks to stop and do self-reflection. ④Then, find a quiet place and take out your reflection diary. Write down some notes on the new things that you learned in the unit. Let your mind think about the notes you’ve written before and make some connections (联系). ⑤Finally, think about things that you’re not sure of. Maybe you learned a new way to work out a math problem, but you’re not sure when to use it. Writing down your questions will help you remember to look for answers the next time you are working with the same topic. ⑥Self-reflection is important for a successful student. If you have never taken the time to do self-reflection, try it now. 12. According to Paragraph 2, how can people do self-reflection? A. Work quickly. B. Think about the future. C. Keep a diary. D. Learn by oneself. 13. Which of the following is a right way of doing self-reflection? A. When the exam of each unit ends, Mary will start learning the next very soon. B. Cindy writes down some notes after class and then goes to play with classmates. C. Mike looks through his new notes and then checks the notes he has taken before. D. After finding a new way to solve a science problem, Tony uses it as often as possible. 14. Which can be the best title for the passage? A. Why is Self-reflection Important? B. Try Doing Self-Refection Now! C. How Can We Learn Fast? D. Keep Ourselves Busy! 15. What is the structure of the passage? A. B. C. D. 第二节（共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分） 阅读以下材料，然后从文后所给的五个选项中选择正确的选项，完成1—4小题 (有一项为多余项)，并结合文本内容回答第5题。 Sit back and get relaxed! These days, we easily feel stressed as we get more and more work to do. It’s important to know how to solve problems and find ways to relax. First, we should try organizing our work from most important to least important as well as most urgent (紧急的) to least urgent. 1 As soon as those are done, work on things that are important but not urgent. Then, do things that are less important and less urgent. This makes us know what to do first and not worry about the rest. Still, sometimes we feel stressed even after organizing our work. That’s okay. 2 Because exercise helps a lot in forgetting about our problems. It doesn’t even have to be a big trip to the gym, although that surely helps. It could be something as small as walking around the neighborhood for 10 to 20 minutes. Finally, we can try meditation (冥想). 3 Just set aside 10 to 20 minutes with an alarm clock, sit straight, close our eyes, and focus only on breathing. If other thoughts come up, accept that they are there and let them fly away on their own. 4 By trying these steps, we will certainly feel peaceful when finishing all of the work. A. How can we do that? B. It is not easy to get work organized. C. Try to add some exercise into our weekly plan. D. Both our body and mind can get relaxed this way. E. If some problems are both important and urgent, do those things first. 16. ________ 17 ________ 18. ________ 19. ________ 20. Which way is better for you to get relaxed? Why?
