I learned a lesson in “heart” from my little 10-year-old daughter, Sarah, who was born with a muscle (肌肉) missing in her foot and has to wear a brace (支架) all the time. That’s why she has problems running freely or even walking quickly.
On a beautiful spring day, at 4:00 p.m., she came home and told me that she joined in “field day”. On that day, students usually have lots of races, games, matches and competitions. They join in the “field day” and win prizes.
Because of her brace, my mind raced, “She must be very upset. What should I say to make her cheer up?” So I tried to think of words of encouragement for my poor Sarah, things I could say to her about not letting this get her down—things I have heard many famous coaches tell the players when they were faced with failure. But before I could say a word out, she looked up and said happily, “Daddy, I won two of the races.”
I couldn’t believe it! Then Sarah said, “I had an advantage.”
Aha, I knew it. She must have been given a head start—some kind of physical advantage. I thought in my mind. But again, before I could say anything, she said, “Daddy, I didn’t get a head start... My advantage was I had to try harder!”
31. What do we know about Sarah?
A. She is always very upset. B. She is able to run freely.
C. She always wears a brace. D. She has problems with her hand.

A. He tried to help her a lot.
B. He tried to say something to comfort her.
C. He couldn’t wait to know the results of the races.
D. He was very happy and proud of her.
33. What do the underlined words “get her down” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. make her feel sad B. make her feel tired
C. make her write down D. make her come down
34. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?

On my 56th birthday, my daughter Alice gave me two beautiful wooden butterflies. I hung them on the wall so that I could admire (欣赏) them throughout the day. They carried our memories.
My mom passed away when I was 25 years old. At that time, Alice was just a baby. She never got to meet her grandma. This made it hard for me to keep my mom’s memory alive for Alice. One day when Alice was 7, we were playing outside. Suddenly, she said how much she missed her grandma. I told her that her grandma loved her very much and that she was watching over her from heaven. I even said that maybe she was taking a ride on the back of a butterfly to get a closer look. At that moment, a butterfly just came out of nowhere. It flew around Alice’s face and then flew away. We looked at each other and both laughed with joy.
Since then, it seems like butterflies follow us wherever we go. Whenever we are outside, they come down, circle around us, take a good look and fly away. It feels like my mom’s love is still watching over us through the butterflies. Even in winter, I can take comfort in looking at the wooden butterflies. And they bring my mom’s love to my mind.
The wooden butterflies have become a symbol of our bond (纽带). They bring back the moment when a butterfly brought us together and filled our hearts with happiness. And even now, they continue to bring us closer to my mom. She always holds a special place in our hearts.
36. Why did Alice give two wooden butterflies to her mother?
A. To let real butterflies fly over.

Are you an “I” person or an “E” person? These two personality labels (标签) are widely discussed online. They are part of a popular personality test called MBTI. An “I” person is shy and enjoys his own time and inner world while an “E” person is outgoing, talkative and likes to make friends.
Many people in China are interested in it now. “Am I an ‘I’ person or an ‘E’ person?” They take the test to find out the answer.
It groups people into 16 types and explains why people make different decisions when they are in the same situation. For example, when asked how they spend weekends, “E” persons like to go to parties and make new friends; “I” persons are more likely to read at home and enjoy the time alone.
Using the MBTI result to identify (确认) and describe someone’s personality seems fun. But there are also problems. Some people take the test for a second time and get different results. Some people find it hard to answer some questions. “I like watching TV by myself. But I also enjoy playing with my friends. Am I an ‘I’ person or an ‘E’ person?” Personalities can change with time, and they are not black-or-white. You may be shy now but become outgoing when you get older. Don’t label yourself!
When you take a personality test, you may think, “Oh, that’s me.” That’s because the descriptions are generic (通用的). They can be used to describe many people. So, don’t take it too seriously. The MBTI personality test may show something you don’t know about yourself and can even be a fun icebreaker question when you are meeting new friends. And that’s all for fun. Knowing someone’s MBTI result doesn’t mean you really know this person.
41. What does the underlined word “personality” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Nationality. B. Sense. C. Character. D. Gift.
42. What can we know about MBTI from the text?
A. It should be taken seriously.
B. It’s a popular personality test.
C. It can describe a very small group of people.
D. It’s a fun icebreaker question.
43. Which one of the following characters is the most likely an “I” person according to the text?
A. Nick is always ready to help others.
B. Joe likes sharing his everyday life with his friends.
C. Betty enjoys answering teachers questions in class.
D. Rose would like to stay at home reading her favorite books when she is free.
44. From the text we can know that ________.
A. MBTI can tell personality correctly
B. MBTI can’t show something about ourselves
C. we can know someone only by MBTI
D. we shouldn’t label ourselves by MBTI
45. What does the writer think of the MBTI text?
A. It’s just for fun.
B. It can fully show who you are.
C. People should take it seriously.
D. Everyone must take it to know themselves.
【答案】41. C 42. B 43. D 44. D 45. A
【解析】

第三节 任务型阅读(每小题2分,共10分)
阅读下面短文,按要求回答问题。
Why do most people save their money in the bank? Why not keep it at home? First of all, it’s safe to keep your money in the bank. If you keep money at home, someone might break into your house and take it. Another reason (原因) is that your money can grow in the bank.
When you put money in the bank, it will give you some more money after some time. The money you put in the bank is the deposit (存款). The money the bank gives you for your deposit is the interest (利息). The interest rate (利率) can decide how much interest you get. For example, you put 100 yuan in the bank and the interest rate is 2% a year. Then you will get 2 yuan a year as interest.
Why would banks keep your money safe and still give you interest? The reason is that the bank takes your money and lends it to other people. When people buy high-priced things such as houses or cars, they need a lot of money. When they don’t have enough, they borrow (借) from the bank. After that, they give back some money each month for years. They also have to pay interest. The interest on borrowed money is high. In this way, the bank makes money.
Now you know how the bank works. The bank needs deposits so that it can make money by lending money.
51. What is the deposit?
____________________________________
52. How much interest will you get a year if you deposit 200 yuan with an interest rate of 3% a year?
____________________________________
53. What does the bank do with deposits?
____________________________________
54. What does Paragraph 1 mainly tell us?
____________________________________
55. If you have some money, will you put it in the bank? Why?
____________________________________
【答案】51. The money you put in the bank.
52. 6 yuan.
53. The bank lends it to other people.
54. It mainly tells us the reasons why most people save their money in the bank.
55. Yes, because it’s safe and I can also get some interest.
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了银行存款和利息以及银行的运转模式。
【51题详解】
根据“The money you put in the bank is the deposit (存款).”可知,存款就是你存入银行的钱。故填The money you put in the bank.
【52题详解】
根据“For example, you put 100 yuan in the bank and the interest rate is 2% a year. Then you will get 2 yuan a year as interest.”可知,年利率是2%,那么100元一年就会获得百分之二的利息,即2元;因此年利率3%,存入200元一年的利息则为6元。故填6 yuan.
【53题详解】
根据“The reason is that the bank takes your money and lends it to other people.”可知,银行会把存款借给别人。故填The bank lends it to other people.
【54题详解】
根据“Why do most people save their money in the bank? Why not keep it at home? First of all, it’s safe to keep your money in the bank. If you keep money at home, someone might break into your house and take it. Another reason (原因) is that your money can grow in the bank.”可知,第一段主要告诉我们大部分会把钱存入银行的原因。故填It mainly tells us the reasons why most people save their money in the bank.
【55题详解】
开放性试题,言之成理即可。故填Yes, because it’s safe and I can also get some interest.

I learned a lesson in “heart” from my little 10-year-old daughter, Sarah, who was born with a muscle (肌肉) missing in her foot and has to wear a brace (支架) all the time. That’s why she has problems running freely or even walking quickly.
On a beautiful spring day, at 4:00 p.m., she came home and told me that she joined in “field day”. On that day, students usually have lots of races, games, matches and competitions. They join in the “field day” and win prizes.
Because of her brace, my mind raced, “She must be very upset. What should I say to make her cheer up?” So I tried to think of words of encouragement for my poor Sarah, things I could say to her about not letting this get her down—things I have heard many famous coaches tell the players when they were faced with failure. But before I could say a word out, she looked up and said happily, “Daddy, I won two of the races.”
I couldn’t believe it! Then Sarah said, “I had an advantage.”
Aha, I knew it. She must have been given a head start—some kind of physical advantage. I thought in my mind. But again, before I could say anything, she said, “Daddy, I didn’t get a head start... My advantage was I had to try harder!”
31. What do we know about Sarah?
A. She is always very upset. B. She is able to run freely.
C. She always wears a brace. D. She has problems with her hand.
32. What did her father do when Sarah told him that she joined in “field day”?
A. He tried to help her a lot.
B. He tried to say something to comfort her.
C. He couldn’t wait to know the results of the races.
D. He was very happy and proud of her.
33. What do the underlined words “get her down” in Paragraph 3 mean?
A. make her feel sad B. make her feel tired
C. make her write down D. make her come down
34. Which of the following is TRUE according to the text?
A. Sarah often tries hard in her life. B. Sarah can always get a head start.
C. Sarah didn’t get good grades in the races. D. Sarah’s father helped Sarah win the races.
35. What would be the best title for the text?
A. A Head Start B. My Field Day C. A Kind Father D. Had to Try Harder
C
On my 56th birthday, my daughter Alice gave me two beautiful wooden butterflies. I hung them on the wall so that I could admire (欣赏) them throughout the day. They carried our memories.
My mom passed away when I was 25 years old. At that time, Alice was just a baby. She never got to meet her grandma. This made it hard for me to keep my mom’s memory alive for Alice. One day when Alice was 7, we were playing outside. Suddenly, she said how much she missed her grandma. I told her that her grandma loved her very much and that she was watching over her from heaven. I even said that maybe she was taking a ride on the back of a butterfly to get a closer look. At that moment, a butterfly just came out of nowhere. It flew around Alice’s face and then flew away. We looked at each other and both laughed with joy.
Since then, it seems like butterflies follow us wherever we go. Whenever we are outside, they come down, circle around us, take a good look and fly away. It feels like my mom’s love is still watching over us through the butterflies. Even in winter, I can take comfort in looking at the wooden butterflies. And they bring my mom’s love to my mind.
The wooden butterflies have become a symbol of our bond (纽带). They bring back the moment when a butterfly brought us together and filled our hearts with happiness. And even now, they continue to bring us closer to my mom. She always holds a special place in our hearts.
36. Why did Alice give two wooden butterflies to her mother?
A. To let real butterflies fly over.
B. To give her mother toys to play with.
C. To bring back their memories to her mother.
D. To use them to make the wall more beautiful.

Are you an “I” person or an “E” person? These two personality labels (标签) are widely discussed online. They are part of a popular personality test called MBTI. An “I” person is shy and enjoys his own time and inner world while an “E” person is outgoing, talkative and likes to make friends.
Many people in China are interested in it now. “Am I an ‘I’ person or an ‘E’ person?” They take the test to find out the answer.
It groups people into 16 types and explains why people make different decisions when they are in the same situation. For example, when asked how they spend weekends, “E” persons like to go to parties and make new friends; “I” persons are more likely to read at home and enjoy the time alone.
Using the MBTI result to identify (确认) and describe someone’s personality seems fun. But there are also problems. Some people take the test for a second time and get different results. Some people find it hard to answer some questions. “I like watching TV by myself. But I also enjoy playing with my friends. Am I an ‘I’ person or an ‘E’ person?” Personalities can change with time, and they are not black-or-white. You may be shy now but become outgoing when you get older. Don’t label yourself!
When you take a personality test, you may think, “Oh, that’s me.” That’s because the descriptions are generic (通用的). They can be used to describe many people. So, don’t take it too seriously. The MBTI personality test may show something you don’t know about yourself and can even be a fun icebreaker question when you are meeting new friends. And that’s all for fun. Knowing someone’s MBTI result doesn’t mean you really know this person.
41. What does the underlined word “personality” in Paragraph 1 mean?
A. Nationality. B. Sense. C. Character. D. Gift.
42. What can we know about MBTI from the text?
A. It should be taken seriously.
B. It’s a popular personality test.
C. It can describe a very small group of people.
D. It’s a fun icebreaker question.
43. Which one of the following characters is the most likely an “I” person according to the text?
A. Nick is always ready to help others.
B. Joe likes sharing his everyday life with his friends.
C. Betty enjoys answering teachers questions in class.
D. Rose would like to stay at home reading her favorite books when she is free.
44. From the text we can know that ________.
A. MBTI can tell personality correctly
B. MBTI can’t show something about ourselves
C. we can know someone only by MBTI
D. we shouldn’t label ourselves by MBTI
45. What does the writer think of the MBTI text?

C. People should take it seriously.

第三节 任务型阅读(每小题2分,共10分)
阅读下面短文,按要求回答问题。
Why do most people save their money in the bank? Why not keep it at home? First of all, it’s safe to keep your money in the bank. If you keep money at home, someone might break into your house and take it. Another reason (原因) is that your money can grow in the bank.
When you put money in the bank, it will give you some more money after some time. The money you put in the bank is the deposit (存款). The money the bank gives you for your deposit is the interest (利息). The interest rate (利率) can decide how much interest you get. For example, you put 100 yuan in the bank and the interest rate is 2% a year. Then you will get 2 yuan a year as interest.
Why would banks keep your money safe and still give you interest? The reason is that the bank takes your money and lends it to other people. When people buy high-priced things such as houses or cars, they need a lot of money. When they don’t have enough, they borrow (借) from the bank. After that, they give back some money each month for years. They also have to pay interest. The interest on borrowed money is high. In this way, the bank makes money.
Now you know how the bank works. The bank needs deposits so that it can make money by lending money.
51. What is the deposit?
