W: But I thought we had agreed it would be beside the sea.
M: We agreed it would be nice to be beside the sea, but have you seen the prices for land near beaches? They are really expensive. Plus, they are really hard to build on and often flood. Maybe it would be better on the edge of a town.
W: No, it has to be rural if we can’t afford one by the sea. I want us to wake up facing trees and nature, not noisy cars.
M: Fine. How about we start looking for our perfect place on the Internet right now?
W: Great!

18. Why does the speaker give the talk?

A. Doing lots of running.
B. Learning more football skills.
C. Practicing shooting one by one.
【答案】18. C 19. A 20. C
【解析】
【原文】M: After last week’s poor performance, our team has a lot to work on. In the last game, we had over 20 shots, but only one passed their goalkeeper and made it! Many of our shots went wide or were very weak. In the end, the opposition scored five goals to our one. That needs to improve.
Here’s how the training exercise will work. The goalkeeper waits in goal, and the rest line up on the halfway line with a football. When I blow my whistle, the first person passes the ball to me, then runs forward. I’ll then knock it to my right. You then have two touches before you shoot. Make sure it’s powerful, but also accurate and into the corners — I don’t want anyone missing the target.
Once you have taken your shot, get your ball back and return to the line. Then the next player goes. It’s as simple as that. Later in the week we’ll be doing lots of running, but today we are going to focus on our shooting. Oh, one more thing — the boss will be watching today, so make sure you put the effort in. Right, off you go!

In 1999, Giuliana Furci, founder and founding director of the Fungi (真菌) Foundation, developed a deep interest in fungi. They were everywhere, and the 20-year-old took particular joy in the variety of mushrooms: small and button-shaped; tall and umbrella-like; round with red caps topped with white flakes. Some were commonly found in people’s diets, for they were rich in nutrients such as vitamin, fiber, minerals and protein.
But Furci also quickly realized that these fungi went largely ignored in Chile, where there were few guidebooks and an almost total lack of policies and resources to protect them from over-harvesting and other human activities. Determined to correct this, Furci wrote a field guide and set up the Fungi Foundation—a nonprofit dedicated to fungi conservation. In her guide, special attention went to the role of fungi in the ecosystem.
“Life on the planet wouldn’t exist without fungi,” said Greg Mueller, a mushroom conservation expert. “Because of their relationship with forests and trees, we can’t survive without fungi. In terms of the health of the planet, they’re incredibly important to humans and the overall ecosystem.” Fungi can break down plants and animals, thus cycling nutrients and increasing their availability in the soil. They are also important contributors to the soil carbon stock through the same process. What’s more, fungi have been found to help degrade (降解) various pollutants, such as plastic. And mycelium (菌丝体), which is the root structure of mushrooms, is now being used to replace unsustainable materials, such as plastic and animal-based products.
Because of these, exploration of fungi was expanded at a faster pace. However, some were already listed as critically endangered. In 2010, Furci took an even bigger step—with other environmental nonprofits, she put forward a proposal for the government to systematically assess how large new developments such as housing, dams, and highways affect fungi. In 2012, a law was passed and Chile became the first country in the world to protect fungi by law.
24. What can we learn about Furci from the first two paragraphs?
A. She enjoyed collecting mushrooms.
B. She was fond of cooking mushrooms.
C. She worried about the situation of fungi.
D. She had a habit of writing field guidebooks.
25. What is Paragraph 3 of the text mainly about?
A. The life on earth without fungi.
B. The importance of fungi on earth.
C. The relations between trees and fungi.
D. The practical uses of fungi in the future.
26. How did Furci protect the ecosystem?
A. By writing free instructions on plants.
B. By starting a non-profit ecotourism company.
C. By raising awareness of the importance of fungi.
D. By passing laws to ban over-harvesting mushrooms.
27. Which of the following best describes Furci’s work?
A. Ground-breaking. B. Debatable.
C. Romantic. D. Unmatched.
【答案】24. C 25. B 26. C 27. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述Furci意识到真菌对地球上生命的重要性后通过写指南、成立基金会等方式来呼吁人们关注并保护真菌。她和其他环保组织的行为甚至促使智利通过了一项保护真菌的法律。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“But Furci also quickly realized that these fungi went largely ignored in Chile, where there were few guidebooks and an almost total lack of policies and resources to protect them from over-harvesting and other human activities. (但弗奇也很快意识到,这些真菌在智利基本上被忽视了,那里几乎没有指导手册,几乎完全缺乏保护它们免受过度捕捞和其他人类活动影响的政策和资源)”可知,Furci担心真菌的现状。故选C。
【25题详解】
主旨大意题。根据本段第一句““Life on the planet wouldn’t exist without fungi,” said Greg Mueller, a mushroom conservation expert. (“如果没有真菌,地球上的生命就不会存在,”蘑菇保护专家格雷格·穆勒说)”并结合本段其他内容可知,本段主要介绍了真菌对地球上生命的重要性。故选B。
【26题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Determined to correct this, Furci wrote a field guide and set up the Fungi Foundation—a nonprofit dedicated to fungi conservation. In her guide, special attention went to the role of fungi in the ecosystem.(为了纠正这一点,弗奇写了一本野外指南,并成立了真菌基金会——一个致力于真菌保护的非营利组织。在她的指南中,特别关注了真菌在生态系统中的作用)”可知,为了保护真菌,Furci写了指南并成立了真菌基金会。由此推知,Furci通过提高人们对真菌重要性的认识来保护真菌。故选C。
【27题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“In 2010, Furci took an even bigger step—with other environmental nonprofits, she put forward a proposal for the government to systematically assess how large new developments such as housing, dams, and highways affect fungi. In 2012, a law was passed and Chile became the first country in the world to protect fungi by law.(2010年,Furci与其他环保非营利组织一起迈出了更大的一步,她向政府提出了一项建议,要求政府系统评估住房、水坝和高速公路等大型新开发项目对真菌的影响。2012年,智利通过了一项法律,成为世界上第一个以法律保护真菌的国家)”可知,Furci和其他环保组织的行为甚至促使智利通过一项保护真菌的法律。由此推知,Furci的工作是有开创性的。故选A。
C
3M and Discovery Education announced Sean Jiang from Gilman School as one of the top ten finalists from across the nation for the 2023 3M Young Scientist Challenge. It’s a competition that encourages students to identify an everyday problem and submit a video showing the science behind the solution he or she came up with.
14-year-old Jiang decided to help those who can’t see. Blind people had a hard time navigating (导航) objects that are medium to far range. So Jiang wanted to design something to give them a heads-up on obstacles (障碍) that may be incoming.
Jiang’s inspiration came from the powers of the hearing system. “I learned in school that bats and whales are able to use echolocation (回声定位) to help them navigate and just use their sense of hearing and I also saw on YouTube some very skilled blind people that use echolocation to help them walk,” said Jiang.
Jiang started with a virtual reality setting and then made it a reality. His creation uses a depth camera that can detect how close objects are, thus giving enough time to dodge the obstacles. When a blind is walking with the device, the sensor of the depth camera gathers the information regarding the obstacles’ position and distance. Then the AI system in it will turn the distance data into musical sound guidance. This could significantly increase the walking speed of a blind person as well as decrease the number of obstacles they hit.
Some other similar programs were alright at finding objects that were in close range, but Jiang still wanted the blind to experience the world even fuller so they were able to see stuff that was much further away than their circle of reach.
In October, the top ten finalists will compete in person in Minneapolis for the title of “America’s Top Young Scientist” and a $25, 000 prize.
28. What can we learn about Jiang from the first two paragraphs?
A. He was the champion of the 2023 3M event.
B. He invented technology to remove road obstacles.
C. He sought to assist the blind in walking smoothly.
D. He developed a new navigation app for his school.
29. Why did Jiang mention “echolocation”?
A. To show the development of technology.
B. To present the difficulties the blind face.
C To stress the significance of hearing.
D. To explain the inspiration of his invention.
30. What does the underlined word “dodge” mean in paragraph 4?
A. Avoid.
B. Encounter.
C. Challenge.
D. Remove.
31. What is the text mainly about?
A. 3M facilities intended for the blind.
B. A teen using sound to help the blind.
C. An invention to cure vision problems.
D. A competition to improve the blind’s life.
【答案】28. C 29. D 30. A 31. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇新闻报道。文章主要报道了一个青少年Sean Jiang的发明创造,他发明的设备能用声音帮助盲人顺利行走。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段“14-year-old Jiang decided to help those who can’t see. Blind people had a hard time navigating(导航) objects that are medium to far range. So Jiang wanted to design something to give them a heads-up on obstacles(障碍) that may be incoming. (14岁的Jiang决定帮助那些看不见的人。盲人很难在中远距离的物体上导航。因此,Jiang想设计一些东西,让他们对可能到来的障碍有所预警。)”可知,Jiang设法帮助盲人顺利行走。故选C项。
【29题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Jiang’s inspiration came from the powers of the hearing system. (Jiang的灵感来自于听觉系统的力量。)”以及Jiang所说“I learned in school that bats and whales are able to use echolocation (回声定位) to help them navigate and just use their sense of hearing and I also saw on YouTube some very skilled blind people that use echolocation to help them walk.( 我在学校里学过蝙蝠和鲸鱼能够利用回声定位来帮助它们导航,而且我还在YouTube上看到一些非常熟练的盲人利用回声定位来帮助他们走路。)”可知,Jiang提到“回声定位”是为了解释他的发明灵感。故选D项。
【30题详解】
词句猜测题。划线词句后文“When a blind is walking with the device, the sensor of the depth camera gathers the information regarding the obstacles’ position and distance. Then the AI system in it will turn the distance data into musical sound guidance. This could significantly increase the walking speed of a blind person as well as decrease the number of obstacles they hit. (当盲人使用该设备行走时,深度相机的传感器会收集有关障碍物位置和距离的信息。然后其中的人工智能系统将把距离数据转化为音乐声音引导。这可以显著提高盲人的行走速度,并减少他们撞到的障碍物数量。)”说明该设备能够帮助盲人避开障碍物,从而推知划线词句“His creation uses a depth camera that can detect how close objects are, thus giving enough time to dodge the obstacles. (他的发明使用了一个深度相机,可以探测到物体有多近,从而有足够的时间dodge障碍物。)”故划线词汇意思是“避开”。故选A项。
【31题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,根据第二段中“14-year-old Jiang decided to help those who can’t see. (14岁的Jiang决定帮助那些看不见的人。)”以及第三段中“Jiang’s inspiration came from the powers of the hearing system. (Jiang的灵感来自于听觉系统的力量。)”等内容可知,本文主要介绍了一个青少年Sean Jiang的发明创造,他发明的设备能用声音帮助盲人顺利行走。故选B项。

“Individuals of all ages who have empathy (共情) understand that sometimes telling little white lies can protect other people from getting hurt,” says Barbara Greenberg, a clinical psychologist in Connecticut. “Most people that I have come across tell these little white lies because they understand that 100 percent honesty all the time is not beneficial.” A white lie, she explains, spares people from unnecessary hurt.
At the same time, Dr. Julia Breur, a marriage and family therapist in Florida, emphasizes the importance of paying attention to the way we respond to someone. The fact is that not telling the truth can result in something unpleasant on you; it’s not just about the person the white lie is being told to. For example, she says someone who always tells others that “all is good” when it comes to a sick parent in an effort to avoid discussions about how serious their health issue really is, can eventually face stressful experiences. When that parent eventually passes away, the person who always gave an “all is good” response ends up emotionally broken.
Sometimes, telling white lies often depends on the situation, Dr. Breur says. For example, consider a woman who has not seen her mother for several months. The daughter has gained noticeable weight, yet the mother responds by excitedly declaring that she looks great. “I emphasize during psychotherapy sessions with my patients that context helps define meaning,” Dr. Breur says. “So when we look at the context of a mother saying you look great when she clearly sees that her daughter has gained weight, it can be acceptable. It reflects the intention of the white lie which is kindness, protection and unconditional love. Otherwise, white lies — especially when told to avoid personal accountability — can start a cycle of mistrust between people, ultimately compromising integrity,” she adds.
Therefore, it’s important to ask ourselves when it is and isn’t appropriate to deliver the honest truth, and when it’s best to step back and offer a more delicate response. More often than not, it’s about finding a balance between the two.
32. What can be learned about white lies according to Barbara Greenberg?
A. They are short-lived. B. They are unidentifiable.
C. They are trouble-making. D. They are common.
33. What message does Dr. Breur deliver in paragraph 2?
A. White lies can harm both the liars and the listeners.
B. We must respond to our family members truthfully.
C. It’s wrong to tell white lies to a seriously ill parent.
D. The “all is good” response is effective in dealing with patients.
34. What is Dr. Breur’s attitude towards the mother’s practice in paragraph 3?
A. Uncaring. B. Critical. C. Supportive. D. Doubtful.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. East or West White Lies Are the Best
B. Think Twice Before You Tell White Lies
C. White Lies Signify Unconditional Love
D. White Lies Are Empathetic People’s Favorable Choice
【答案】32. D 33. A 34. C 35. B
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。主要阐述了善意的谎言可以让人们免受不必要的伤害,但有时候,善意的谎言往往取决于具体情况。因此,重要的是要问问自己,什么时候说实话是合适的,什么时候不合适,什么时候最好退一步,做出更微妙的回应。要在两者之间找到平衡。
【32题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中的““Most people that I have come across tell these little white lies because they understand that 100 percent honesty all the time is not beneficial. “A white lie, she explains, spares people from unnecessary hurt. (‘我遇到的大多数人都会说善意的谎言,因为他们明白,一直100%的诚实是无益的。’她解释说,善意的谎言可以让人们免受不必要的伤害。)”可知,根据芭芭拉·格林伯格的说法,善意的谎言很常见。故选D。
【33题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中的“At the same time, Dr. Julia Breur, a marriage and family therapist in Florida, emphasizes the importance of paying attention to the way we respond to someone. The fact is that not telling the truth can result in something unpleasant on you; it’s not just about the person the white lie is being told to. (与此同时,佛罗里达州的婚姻和家庭治疗师Julia Breur博士强调了关注我们回应他人的重要性。事实是,不说实话会让你感到不愉快;不仅仅是谎言的对象感到不愉快。)”可知,善意的谎言给说谎者和听者都会带来伤害。故选A。

(Breur说:‘在心理治疗过程中,我和病人强调,情境有助于定义意义。’她补充道:‘所以,当我们看到一位母亲清楚地看到女儿长胖了,却说你看起来很棒时,这是可以接受的。它反映了善意谎言的意图,即善意、保护和无条件的爱。否则,善意的谎言——尤其是为了逃避个人责任而撒的谎言——会引发人与人之间不信任的循环,最终损害诚信。’)”可知,Breur博士对第3段中母亲的做法持支持态度,他认为它反映了善意谎言的意图,即善意、保护和无条件的爱。故选C。
【35题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其根据最后一段中的“Therefore, it’s important to ask ourselves when it is and isn’t appropriate to deliver the honest truth, and when it’s best to step back and offer a more delicate response. More often than not, it’s about finding a balance between the two. (因此,重要的是要问问自己,什么时候说实话是合适的,什么时候不合适,什么时候最好退一步,做出更微妙的回应。通常情况下,这是关于在两者之间找到平衡。)”可知,本文主要讲了善意的谎言可以让人们免受不必要的伤害,但有时候,善意的谎言往往取决于具体情况。因此,在说善意的谎言之前要三思。B项“Think Twice Before You Tell White Lies (说谎之前三思)”最能概括本文主旨,适合作为最佳标题。故选B。

Last weekend, I was standing at the finish line of the St. Francis Franny Flyer 5K (五公里赛) route, waiting for my nine-year-old son Kade to pass by.
Kade, though a fourth-grader, was already an experienced runner. He had been a part of a cross-country club since he was six years old. He had loved to run for as long as he could remember. He had been working hard to improve his endurance and running skills as he was determined to be a professional runner and compete in national and international races when he was older.
There were two St. Francis Franny Flyer races happening at the same time that day. The 5K race weaved through neighborhoods, from the church to Pinecone Road and back while the 10K followed the same route but extended north on Pinecone Road. Race volunteers were available on Pinecone Road to show runners the way, and there were also signs directing the two different courses.
I signed Kade up for the 5K race as a way to train him for the Junior Olympics. He had never run a 10K, not even in training, so the 10K race was never an option.
Kade was pretty fast and he set a 5K record for his age group at last year’s race, so I was surprised to see slower runners crossing the finish line before him. “This is weird. He should be ahead of them. He might just be having a bad race,” I thought to myself. But as the minutes passed, my worry intensified. My heart raced at the thought that Kade might be lost or injured.
Anxious and worried, I drove along the 5K race route in search of Kade, but he was nowhere to be found. A surge of fear and despair overwhelmed me, causing a flood of tears to pour down my face. I turned to race officials and volunteers for help, and people started looking for him.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;

Later, a volunteer told me he had spotted Kade on the 10K course.

Finally, Kade appeared and crossed the finish line.
_______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】范文
Later, a volunteer told me he had spotted Kade on the 10K course. Knowing that he was safe, I let out a sigh of relief. Despite hearing that Kade seemed to be running well, worry hang over me as I realized he had taken a wrong turn and was now running a longer and more challenging race than he had ever trained for I couldn’t help but pace back and for that the finish line, anxiously searching for any sign of my son. With every runner approaching, my heart leaped in hope, only to sink in disappointment when it wasn’t him.
Finally, Kade appeared and crossed the finish line. Relief washed over me at the sight of his face. I hugged him tightly, overwhelmed with pride for his courage, determination, and resilience. “What happened? Why did you end up on the 10K course?” I asked my son eagerly. “A race volunteer directed me the wrong way. I didn’t realize the mistake until I saw the 10K turnaround sign, but I didn’t want to give up halfway,” explained Kade. At that moment, I knew without doubt that he was to become a professional runner.

New Yorkers looking to reduce, reuse, and save money this year are invited to participate in Stop ‘N’ Swap, a free community event organized by local nonprofit GrowNYC.
The average NYC household throws away about 2,000 pounds of waste a year. By reusing through events like Stop ‘N’ Swap, NYC residents can take part in saving over 40 million pounds of material from landfill every year. Take a break from shopping, support a cleaner future, and join the ever-growing reuse community!

Books, toys, clothing, and electronics are just some of the offerings. Furniture and other large items are not accepted at the swap. Anything leftover at the end of the day is donated or recycled.
Stop ‘N’ Swaps have developed a regular following among environmentally conscious New Yorkers.

In 1999, Giuliana Furci, founder and founding director of the Fungi (真菌) Foundation, developed a deep interest in fungi. They were everywhere, and the 20-year-old took particular joy in the variety of mushrooms: small and button-shaped; tall and umbrella-like; round with red caps topped with white flakes. Some were commonly found in people’s diets, for they were rich in nutrients such as vitamin, fiber, minerals and protein.
But Furci also quickly realized that these fungi went largely ignored in Chile, where there were few guidebooks and an almost total lack of policies and resources to protect them from over-harvesting and other human activities. Determined to correct this, Furci wrote a field guide and set up the Fungi Foundation—a nonprofit dedicated to fungi conservation. In her guide, special attention went to the role of fungi in the ecosystem.
“Life on the planet wouldn’t exist without fungi,” said Greg Mueller, a mushroom conservation expert. “Because of their relationship with forests and trees, we can’t survive without fungi. In terms of the health of the planet, they’re incredibly important to humans and the overall ecosystem.” Fungi can break down plants and animals, thus cycling nutrients and increasing their availability in the soil. They are also important contributors to the soil carbon stock through the same process. What’s more, fungi have been found to help degrade (降解) various pollutants, such as plastic. And mycelium (菌丝体), which is the root structure of mushrooms, is now being used to replace unsustainable materials, such as plastic and animal-based products.
Because of these, exploration of fungi was expanded at a faster pace. However, some were already listed as critically endangered. In 2010, Furci took an even bigger step—with other environmental nonprofits, she put forward a proposal for the government to systematically assess how large new developments such as housing, dams, and highways affect fungi. In 2012, a law was passed and Chile became the first country in the world to protect fungi by law.
24. What can we learn about Furci from the first two paragraphs?
A. She enjoyed collecting mushrooms.
B. She was fond of cooking mushrooms.
C. She worried about the situation of fungi.
D. She had a habit of writing field guidebooks.
25. What is Paragraph 3 of the text mainly about?
A. The life on earth without fungi.
B The importance of fungi on earth.
C The relations between trees and fungi.
D. The practical uses of fungi in the future.
26. How did Furci protect the ecosystem?
A. By writing free instructions on plants.
B. By starting a non-profit ecotourism company.
C. By raising awareness of the importance of fungi.
D. By passing laws to ban over-harvesting mushrooms.
27. Which of the following best describes Furci’s work?
A. Ground-breaking. B. Debatable.
C. Romantic. D. Unmatched.
C
3M and Discovery Education announced Sean Jiang from Gilman School as one of the top ten finalists from across the nation for the 2023 3M Young Scientist Challenge. It’s a competition that encourages students to identify an everyday problem and submit a video showing the science behind the solution he or she came up with.
14-year-old Jiang decided to help those who can’t see. Blind people had a hard time navigating (导航) objects that are medium to far range. So Jiang wanted to design something to give them a heads-up on obstacles (障碍) that may be incoming.
Jiang’s inspiration came from the powers of the hearing system. “I learned in school that bats and whales are able to use echolocation (回声定位) to help them navigate and just use their sense of hearing and I also saw on YouTube some very skilled blind people that use echolocation to help them walk,” said Jiang.
Jiang started with a virtual reality setting and then made it a reality. His creation uses a depth camera that can detect how close objects are, thus giving enough time to dodge the obstacles. When a blind is walking with the device, the sensor of the depth camera gathers the information regarding the obstacles’ position and distance. Then the AI system in it will turn the distance data into musical sound guidance. This could significantly increase the walking speed of a blind person as well as decrease the number of obstacles they hit.
Some other similar programs were alright at finding objects that were in close range, but Jiang still wanted the blind to experience the world even fuller so they were able to see stuff that was much further away than their circle of reach.
In October, the top ten finalists will compete in person in Minneapolis for the title of “America’s Top Young Scientist” and a $25, 000 prize.
28. What can we learn about Jiang from the first two paragraphs?
A. He was the champion of the 2023 3M event.
B. He invented technology to remove road obstacles.
C. He sought to assist the blind in walking smoothly.
D. He developed a new navigation app for his school.
29. Why did Jiang mention “echolocation”?
A. To show the development of technology.
B. To present the difficulties the blind face.
C. To stress the significance of hearing.
D. To explain the inspiration of his invention.
30. What does the underlined word “dodge” mean in paragraph 4?
A. Avoid.
B. Encounter.
C. Challenge.
D. Remove.
31. What is the text mainly about?
A. 3M facilities intended for the blind.
B. A teen using sound to help the blind.
C. An invention to cure vision problems.
D. A competition to improve the blind’s life.
D
“Individuals of all ages who have empathy (共情) understand that sometimes telling little white lies can protect other people from getting hurt,” says Barbara Greenberg, a clinical psychologist in Connecticut. “Most people that I have come across tell these little white lies because they understand that 100 percent honesty all the time is not beneficial.” A white lie, she explains, spares people from unnecessary hurt.
At the same time, Dr. Julia Breur, a marriage and family therapist in Florida, emphasizes the importance of paying attention to the way we respond to someone. The fact is that not telling the truth can result in something unpleasant on you; it’s not just about the person the white lie is being told to. For example, she says someone who always tells others that “all is good” when it comes to a sick parent in an effort to avoid discussions about how serious their health issue really is, can eventually face stressful experiences. When that parent eventually passes away, the person who always gave an “all is good” response ends up emotionally broken.
Sometimes, telling white lies often depends on the situation, Dr. Breur says. For example, consider a woman who has not seen her mother for several months. The daughter has gained noticeable weight, yet the mother responds by excitedly declaring that she looks great. “I emphasize during psychotherapy sessions with my patients that context helps define meaning,” Dr. Breur says. “So when we look at the context of a mother saying you look great when she clearly sees that her daughter has gained weight, it can be acceptable. It reflects the intention of the white lie which is kindness, protection and unconditional love. Otherwise, white lies — especially when told to avoid personal accountability — can start a cycle of mistrust between people, ultimately compromising integrity,” she adds.
Therefore, it’s important to ask ourselves when it is and isn’t appropriate to deliver the honest truth, and when it’s best to step back and offer a more delicate response. More often than not, it’s about finding a balance between the two.
32. What can be learned about white lies according to Barbara Greenberg?
A. They are short-lived. B. They are unidentifiable.
C. They are trouble-making. D. They are common.
33. What message does Dr. Breur deliver in paragraph 2?
A. White lies can harm both the liars and the listeners.
B. We must respond to our family members truthfully.
C It’s wrong to tell white lies to a seriously ill parent.
D. The “all is good” response is effective in dealing with patients.
34. What is Dr. Breur’s attitude towards the mother’s practice in paragraph 3?
A. Uncaring. B. Critical. C. Supportive. D. Doubtful.
35. Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A. East or West, White Lies Are the Best
B. Think Twice Before You Tell White Lies
C. White Lies Signify Unconditional Love
D. White Lies Are Empathetic People’s Favorable Choice

Last weekend, I was standing at the finish line of the St. Francis Franny Flyer 5K (五公里赛) route, waiting for my nine-year-old son Kade to pass by.
Kade, though a fourth-grader, was already an experienced runner. He had been a part of a cross-country club since he was six years old. He had loved to run for as long as he could remember. He had been working hard to improve his endurance and running skills as he was determined to be a professional runner and compete in national and international races when he was older.
There were two St. Francis Franny Flyer races happening at the same time that day. The 5K race weaved through neighborhoods, from the church to Pinecone Road and back while the 10K followed the same route but extended north on Pinecone Road. Race volunteers were available on Pinecone Road to show runners the way, and there were also signs directing the two different courses.
I signed Kade up for the 5K race as a way to train him for the Junior Olympics. He had never run a 10K, not even in training, so the 10K race was never an option.
Kade was pretty fast and he set a 5K record for his age group at last year’s race, so I was surprised to see slower runners crossing the finish line before him. “This is weird. He should be ahead of them. He might just be having a bad race,” I thought to myself. But as the minutes passed, my worry intensified. My heart raced at the thought that Kade might be lost or injured.
Anxious and worried, I drove along the 5K race route in search of Kade, but he was nowhere to be found. A surge of fear and despair overwhelmed me, causing a flood of tears to pour down my face. I turned to race officials and volunteers for help, and people started looking for him.
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。
Later, a volunteer told me he had spotted Kade on the 10K course.

Finally, Kade appeared and crossed the finish line.

In the end, the opposition scored five goals to our one that needs to improve. Here's how the training exercise will work. The goalkeeper awaits in goal and the rest line up on the halfway line with the football. When I blow my whistle, the first person passes of all to me, then runs forward. I'll then knock IT to my right. You then have two touches before you shoot, make sure it's powerful, but also accurate and into the corners. I don't want anyone missing the target. Once you have taken your shot, get your ball back and return to the line, then the next player goes. It's as simple as that. Later in the week will be doing lots of running, but today we are going to focus on our shooting. Oh, one more thing the boss will be watching today. So make sure you put the effort right off you go.
