And if someone wants to find a person to talk to, Emily is always there to listen to them. If someone needs advice, Emily is the first person they go to. Alex, however, is a quiet but talented boy. He doesn’t talk much and he usually spends most of his free time reading in the school library, so he does well in exams. When his friends have some difficult problems in study, Alex is often ready to help them out. Students are all surprised at his intellect and great problem-solving skills. Liam is a born leader. He is cheerful and outgoing. He joins all kinds of clubs at school, including the music and the art clubs. At the same time, Liam likes to take part in outdoor activities. He often organizes school trips, cycling races and other interesting games. All the students would like to play with him. This makes Liam a popular star at school. Sophia is friendly and kind-hearted. She does different volunteer work after school. On Monday and Friday, Sophia goes to the children’s hospital.

These people have no trouble being alone often and don’t like being disturbed. However, when it comes to love, they are less confident as they’re not the ones to make the first move and take the initiative.C． The ring finger and the index finger are the same length Maybe this has said enough already.

Some of us are tall. Some of us are fat. The point is, all of us have our own look—our own face. Sometimes, we might feel bad about looking different. We might feel like we look ugly or weird (怪异的). But our differences are what make us special. I recently watched a speech by a man named Robert Hoge. Hoge was born with a strange-looking face. His mother worried about the difficulties he would face in life. But Hoge didn’t give up. Strangers would stare at (盯着看) him or even make fun of him. But he didn’t care. He decided to own his face and feel confident (自信的) in himself. He has gone on to live an amazing life. It’s hard when you feel like you don’t look “normal (正常的)” or “perfect (完美的)”.

It’s part of a popular personality (性格) test called MBTI. The MBTI test divides people into sixteen personality types, such as INFJ, INTP, ESTP and ESFJ. “I” or “E” is the first letter. People are either “I”, usually quiet, or “E”, usually outgoing. It seems interesting for many young people to use the MBTI result to describe someone’s personality. I once took the result seriously. But one day, I was surprised to see my sister Lucy making a study plan for the summer holiday. She is a “p-person” according to the test result. “P-persons” usually don’t like to make plans. “I thought you were a ‘p-person’,” I said. “Why do I need to follow what my personality test tells me? It’s just for fun,” she answered. Yes, she was right. The test was just for fun. Maybe the MBTI personality test tells you something about someone. And it can also be a way to start up a talk when you meet new friends. However, the four letters don’t tell you everything about a person. Don’t let the MBTI result tell you who you are. 1．How many kinds of personalities are there in the MBTI test? A．2. B．4. C．8. D．16. 2．An “e-person” is usually________ than an “i-person” according to the MBTI result. A．smarter B．quieter C．more outgoing D．more popular 3．What can we learn about the MBTI personality test? A．It is completely scientific. B．It is the best way to get to know someone. C．It can help you know everything about someone. D．It is something you can talk about when making friends. 4．Where can we read this passage? A．In a dictionary. B．In a diary. C．In a magazine. D．In a history book. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．D 4．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了一种流行的性格测试MBTI，讨论了其结果的娱乐性及其对性格判断的局限性。 1．细节理解题。根据“The MBTI test divides people into sixteen personality types”可知，MBTI性格测试将人们分为16种不同的性格类型。故选D。 2．细节理解题。根据“People are either ‘I’, usually quiet, or ‘E’, usually outgoing.”可知，根据MBTI测试结果，e-person“外向型人格”通常比i-person“内向型人格”更外向。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据“Maybe the MBTI personality test tells you something about someone. And it can also be a way to start up a talk when you meet new friends. However, the four letters don’t tell you everything about a person.”可知，MBTI性格测试可以作为与新朋友交谈的话题，但它并不能告诉你关于一个人的一切。故选D。 4．推理判断题。通读全文可知，文章讨论了一个流行的个性测试和与之相关的个人经历，这是杂志文章的常见主题，因此可能在杂志上读到这篇文章。故选C。 能力综合实践5篇 Do you have any foreign friends?

They are very quiet and never talk too much with the strangers.”可知，德国人和英国人很安静。故选D。 2．词句猜测题。根据“who always keep their home clean”可知，德国女性总是让家里保持干净状态，说明德国人喜欢整洁，因此“tidiness”应表示“整洁”。故选A。 3．细节理解题。根据“The Englishmen are also the gentlemen (绅士).”可知，在作者的眼中，绅士是英国人。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据“It is very easy to make friends with them.”可知，与法国人交朋友很容易。故选B。 5．最佳标题。本文主要介绍了德国人、英国人、法国人和美国人的一些性格特征。选项C“外国人的性格特征”适合。故选C。 ①Height is just one of the thousands of features your genes (基因) decide. In fact, because you have two parents, your genes provide you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent. If both your parents are tall, then most probably you will be tall too, but if you have questions about how tall you’re going to be, ask your doctor if he or she can help you find it out. ②But genes don’t decide everything. For example, eating an unhealthy diet can stop you from growing to your full potential(潜力). Getting plenty of sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the expected height. ③No doubt(怀疑) you’re wondering how fast you should grow. It depends. There’s no perfect or right answer. Generally speaking, kids grow about 6 centimeters a year between age 3 and the time when they start puberty (青春期) (when your body starts changing and becoming more grown up). ④Your doctor can know your growth these years. Two centimeters here and 2 inches there are not as important as the height you’re at now, how you’ve been growing up to this point, and what other changes your body may be going through. ⑤Don’t be scared if you seem to have grown a lot in a very short time. Everyone has a growth spurt (高峰) during puberty. The age for starting puberty is about 10 years old for girls and about 11 years old for boys. But it can be earlier or later—between 7 and 13 for girls and 9 and 15 for boys. You’ll usually begin to notice that you’re growing faster about a year or so after your body starts to show the first changes of puberty. 根据语篇内容，选择最佳选项。 1．Which one decides your height according to Paragraph①? A．Your genes. B．Your mother. C．Your father. D．Your doctor. 2．How can you grow to your expected height? A．Stay up late often. B．Eat more meat and less vegetables. C．Depend on your genes. D．Have enough sleep and exercise. 3．What does the underlined word “it” in Paragraph③refer to(指的是)? A．How tall you will grow. B．How fast you should grow. C．When you may grow tall. D．When your puberty will start. 4．What’s the main idea of Paragraph⑤? A．Someone will be scared if he grows a lot suddenly. B．Boys’ puberty starts earlier than girls’. C．The puberty can be earlier or later. D．Everyone has his own growth spurt at puberty. 5．What can be inferred (推断) from the passage? A．Not only genes but also lifestyles can influence the height. B．Your doctor can control your growth. C．You must be tall if one of your parents is tall. D．Few people can get their expected height. 【答案】1．A 2．D 3．B 4．D 5．A 【导语】本文主要讲述了影响你身高的各种因素。通常你的基因决定身高，但是基因不能决定一切，例如饮食睡眠和足够的锻炼都能帮你长到期望的高度。至于你长得多快，这要视情况而定。还有青春期会有快速地生长。 1．细节理解题。根据“Height is just one of the thousands of features your genes (基因) decide.”可知，身高只是基因决定的数千个特征之一，故选A。 2．细节理解题。根据“Getting plenty of sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the expected height.”可知，充足的睡眠和足够的锻炼可以帮助你达到预期的身高，故选D。 3．细节理解题。根据“No doubt(怀疑) you’re wondering how fast you should grow. It depends.”可知，应该长的有多快这个事情视情况而定，所以It指代“How fast you should grow”，故选B。 4．主旨大意题。根据“Everyone has a growth spurt (高峰) during puberty.”可知，本段主要讲述了每个人都有青春期生长突增，所以在很短的时间内成长了很多，不要害怕，故选D。 5．推理判断题。根据“But genes don’t decide everything. For example, eating an unhealthy diet can stop you from growing to your full potential(潜力). Getting plenty of sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the expected height.”可知，不仅基因，生活方式也会影响身高，故选A。 【语篇来自二十一世纪学生英文报·试题原创】 Are you too shy? Are you shy sometimes? The answer from 16-year-old Liu Yuexian is “Yes”. “When my teacher asked me to come to the blackboard, I was too nervous to work out the problem,” said Liu. “I thought everyone was looking at me.” Do you feel the same as Liu? Experts have found that more than 80 per cent of middle school students feel afraid to be the centre of attention. Shyness means feeling frightened when you’re around other people. Some kids are born shy. Some become shy later because of their life experiences. It’s OK if it takes you a while to feel yourself again when you go to a new place or meet new people. In fact, everybody gets a little shy sometimes. It’s just a case of how much. Most people have red faces and talk in broken sentences when they get shy. But some become so shy that they won’t go to a restaurant because they are too nervous to order and pay for their food. Some are afraid of meeting new people, so they seldom go outside. This kind of shyness can be bad for a person. If shyness doesn’t stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isn’t a very big problem. Some experts say shy people are smarter because they think more and talk less. Shy people are also good at working with others because they think more for other people. You see, being shy isn’t all bad. But remember not to let good opportunities pass you by just because of it. If you have to sing a song at a birthday party or practise spoken English in front of others, just do it! There’s nothing to be afraid of. 1．________ of middle school students feel afraid to be the centre of attention. A．Less than 80% B．More than 80% C．Less than 60% D．All 2．What does the underlined word “frightened” mean? A．兴奋的 B．勇敢的 C．自信的 D．害怕的 3．What can we learn from the third paragraph? A．Shyness can’t stop you from doing something you want to do. B．Being shy isn’t a very big problem. C．If shyness stops you from doing something you want to do, it is bad for you. D．All kinds of shyness are good for you. 4．Why are shy people smarter according to some experts? A．Because they are good at working. B．Because they think less and talk more. C．Because they think more and talk less. D．Because they can speak in front of others. 5．What’s the passage mainly about? A．Shyness is bad for everyone. B．Shyness is not all bad and we should be brave. C．Shyness is good for everyone. D．We should practise spoken English by ourselves. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．C 4．C 5．B 【导语】本文主要介绍了不同程度的害羞对人的影响，并建议读者不要害怕，不要畏惧与人沟通和展示自己，要大胆一点。 1．细节理解题。根据“Experts have found that more than 80 per cent of middle school students feel afraid to be the centre of attention.”可知，80% 以上的中学生害怕成为关注的焦点。故选B。 2．词义猜测题。由“Experts have found that more than 80 per cent of middle school students feel afraid to be the centre of attention. Shyness means feeling frightened when you’re around other people.”可知，frightened的意思与afraid意思相近，为“害怕的”，故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据第三段的描述可以推断，如果害羞阻止你做你想做的事情，那么它对你不好。故选C。 4．细节理解题。根据“Some experts say shy people are smarter because they think more and talk less.”可知，一些专家认为，害羞的人更聪明，因为他们想得更多，说得更少。故选C。 5．主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了不同程度的害羞对人的影响，并建议读者不要害怕，不要畏惧与人沟通和展示自己，要大胆一点。故选B。 Posting selfies online can be a fun way to share your life with your friends and family. But some people take their photos a bit too seriously and spend a lot of time editing (编辑) them. This not only presents a “fake” image (形象) of those people to the world, but can even make people feel worse about themselves. Researchers in Australia did a study in which 130 women aged 18 to 30 were asked to look at a series of photos. Some of the photos showed thin women, while others showed average-sized women. Afterwards the women were asked to take a selfie with an iPad and were then given 10 minutes to edit the selfie. The women were also asked about their personal dissatisfaction (不满意) with their bodies and faces several times during the experiment—before and after viewing their images, and after editing their selfies. The researchers’ findings showed that the longer the women took to edit and post their selfies, the more likely (可能的) they were to have negative (消极的) feelings about their own appearance. In addition, the more heavily edited the photos were, the more likely it was that the women were dissatisfied with their facial appearance. People are often pressured to present the best version (版本) of themselves. This, in turn, creates greater stress as they edit their photos to “perfection”, while they themselves don’t actually change, according to Professor Marika Tiggemann, one of the researchers. The findings show the difficulties people face when using social media. 1．What does the underlined word “fake” in Paragraph 1 mean? A．true B．silent C．convenient D．false 2．What are the second and third paragraphs mainly about? A．What the study is about. B．Why researchers did the study. C．How researchers carried out the study. D．Who was invited to do the study. 3．What were the women asked to do? A．Take a series of photos. B．Take and edit a selfie. C．Post their selfies online. D．Pick out the best selfie. 4．What did the study find? A．People are used to editing their selfies. B．Editing selfies can lead to self-dissatisfaction. C．Women spend more time editing their selfies. D．Viewing edited selfies can reduce negative feeling 5．What can we learn about edited selfies from the last paragraph? A．They remind people of their imperfections. B．They encourage people to make changes. C．They make it easy to use social media. D．They show the best side of a person. 【答案】1．D 2．C 3．B 4．B 5．A 【导语】本文阐述了人们过度地编辑自拍的照片会给自己带来压力，而这种压力来源于真实生活中对自己的不自信。 1．词义猜测题。根据“but can even make people feel worse about themselves”可知，“伪造的”形象会让人们对自己感觉更糟糕，划线单词与false词义相近。故选D。 2．段落大意题。通读第二、三段可知，这两段介绍了展开研究的过程。故选C。 3．细节理解题。根据第二段中“Afterwards the women were asked to take a selfie with an iPad and were then given 10 minutes to edit the selfie.”可知，这些女性被要求用iPad拍摄一张自拍照，然后她们有10分钟的时间来编辑这张自拍照，故选B。 4．细节理解题。根据第四段“The researchers’ findings showed that…the more likely (可能的) they were to have negative (消极的) feelings about their own appearance.”可知，女性编辑和发布自拍照所花费的时间越长，她们对自己外貌的负面评价就可能越严重，故选B。 5．推理判断题。根据最后一段可知，人们往往会被迫展现出自己最好的一面。而这种压力反过来又会让他们倍感焦虑，因为他们会精心修饰自己的照片以达到“完美”的效果，而他们自身其实并没有发生任何改变，由此可知，自拍会让人们意识到自身的不完美之处，故选A。 When you meet someone for the first time, what will you think of him or her? An American survey (调查) says that more than half of the people are in the good-looks club. You may ask, “What is a good-looks club?” Well, people in this club always put appearance first. That is to say, what a person looks like makes people think of others differently. People’s looks may affect (影响) their jobs, life or friends. An Internet survey asks 2,000 young people about it. 30% of them say they can tell about someone’s work only by his or her clothes. 10% of them say they often leave in the middle of the date (约会) because the people’s looks are not what they want. 50% of them say they will choose the one with good looks to be a new friend when they come to a new place. 80% of them believe that it is hard for the good-looking ones to live happily with the not-so-good ones. Parents and teachers always teach us not to know about people by their looks, but sometimes the first impression (印象) is very important. It can tell people your age and your job. Your habit is also in it. We can often learn about someone from what he wears and what he says. So we must learn to wear right clothes at different times and places. Our appearance can help us open the door of what other people may think of us. However, when we finally get to know someone well, ▲. That is to say, how we do things and our personalities (性格) are still the most important things that can help other people know us better. 1．What’s the meaning of the “appearance” in paragraph two? A．视力 B．外貌 C．性格 D．家世 2．The first impression can tell people something about you except (除了) ________. A．your age B．your clothes C．your habit D．your job 3．What can be put in the “ ▲ ” in the last paragraph? A．we will find the appearance not so important B．we will find the appearance very important C．we always talk about his or her appearance D．we always like his or her appearance a lot 4．What’s the main idea of the passage? A．How to get a good impression. B．No one is in the good-look club. C．Appearance is sometimes important. D．People need to wear right clothes. 【答案】1．B 2．B 3．A 4．C 【导语】本文探讨外貌在人际交往中的影响。调查显示超过半数的人重视外貌。外貌会影响工作、交友和约会。尽管第一印象能传递年龄、职业、习惯等信息，但深入相处后，性格和行为比外貌更重要。 1．词句猜测题。根据“Well, people in this chub always put appearance first. That is to say, what a person looks like makes people think of others differently.”可知，句中“appearance”与上下文“what a person looks like”直接关联，且“good-looks club”强调以“外貌”优先，因此“appearance”意为“外貌”。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据“Parents and teachers always teach us not to know about people by their looks, but sometimes the first impression is very important. It can tell people your age and your job.”可知，第一印象能告诉人们你的年龄、工作和习惯，而 “your clothes” 并不是第一印象直接能告诉人们的关于“你”的信息。故选B。 3．推理判断题。根据“That is to say, how we do things and our personalities are still the most important things that can help other people know us better.”可知，当我们深入了解一个人时，做事方式和性格才是最重要的，这意味着外貌就显得不那么重要了。此处应表示“外貌变得不重要”。选项A“我们会发现外观并不那么重要”符合。故选A。 4．主旨大意题。根据文中内容可知，文章通过调查和论述，既说明外貌在初次印象中的重要性，又强调其局限性，综合来看，文章主要是在说外貌有时是重要的。选项C“外表有时很重要。”全面概括文章主旨。故选C。 22 同步新教材，周周有练习，月月有重点！ 23 同步新教材，周周有练习，月月有重点！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $ 2025-2026学年一线教师制作新教材英语同步精品系列资料，名师遴选！ 2025-2026学年一线教师制作新教材英语同步精品系列资料，名师遴选！ 学校:___________姓名：___________班级：___________考号：___________ Unit 3 Same or Different 单元话题阅读理解进阶练15篇 说明：此专题分三个难度层次，基础入门训练<进阶拓展训练< 能力综合实践，老师根据学生实际情况进行针对性难度训练。 基础入门训练5篇 Personal traits (品质) Descriptions Be self-disciplined (自律的) I take my health seriously, even though no one asks me to do that.

It turns out that your hand can tell a lot about your personality. It’s really unusual and strange. The secret mostly lies in your ring finger (无名指) and index finger (食指). It can say a lot about what kind of person you are. This test only applies to men. There are three types.A．The ring finger is longer than the index finger We’re talking about handsome men here. They’re charming and can get along well with everyone. Yet, they become angry easily. They like to attack and are quick to take risks.

These people have no trouble being alone often and don’t like being disturbed. However, when it comes to love, they are less confident as they’re not the ones to make the first move and take the initiative.C． The ring finger and the index finger are the same length Maybe this has said enough already.

You are afraid of being alone. You need to treat life seriously and start making better choices. You’re ambitious (有雄心的). You don’t like laziness and work very hard. But sometimes you may become self-centered. Whenever a friend tries to share a story of them with you, you only think about yourself. You should try to be a better listener. You are smart. You can control yourself. You follow your dreams without comparing yourself with others. Sometimes you should come out of your comfort zone (舒适区) and try new things. 1．Which picture shows a person who has strong attitude?

Do you know what I mean by that? We all look a little different. Some of us are tall. Some of us are fat. The point is, all of us have our own look—our own face. Sometimes, we might feel bad about looking different. We might feel like we look ugly or weird (怪异的). But our differences are what make us special. I recently watched a speech by a man named Robert Hoge. Hoge was born with a strange-looking face. His mother worried about the difficulties he would face in life. But Hoge didn’t give up. Strangers would stare at (盯着看) him or even make fun of him. But he didn’t care. He decided to own his face and feel confident (自信的) in himself. He has gone on to live an amazing life. It’s hard when you feel like you don’t look “normal (正常的)” or “perfect (完美的)”. But the truth is, no one is perfect. The important thing to remember is that you are special, no matter what you look like. 1．All of us have _______. A．the same look B．the same figure C．our own look D．the same height 2．_______ worried about the difficulties Robert Hoge would face in life. A．Robert Hoge’s mother B．Robert Hoge C．The author D．The teacher 3．What did Hoge feel when others made fun of him? A．He felt sad. B．He didn’t care. C．He was worried about it. D．He felt bad about it. 4．What did Hoge do with strange look? A．He had a cosmetic surgery (整容手术). B．He didn’t go out. C．He complained about his mother. D．He continued to live his amazing life. 5．The author thinks that _______. A．many people look weird B．being ugly is embarrassing C．everyone is special D．everyone is perfect S, M, P and C stand for different people who have different personalities. S people are the most popular at the party. They are friendly, energetic and humorous. They are interested in anything new and exciting and others always have fun with them. At the same time, they are careless and forgetful. M people are very careful and do everything as planned. They always want to find faults and never feel pleased with anything around them. They are strict with themselves, as well as with others. M people are real friends. If they make friends with you, it means that they will be your friends for life.

It’s part of a popular personality (性格) test called MBTI. The MBTI test divides people into sixteen personality types, such as INFJ, INTP, ESTP and ESFJ. “I” or “E” is the first letter. People are either “I”, usually quiet, or “E”, usually outgoing. It seems interesting for many young people to use the MBTI result to describe someone’s personality. I once took the result seriously. But one day, I was surprised to see my sister Lucy making a study plan for the summer holiday. She is a “p-person” according to the test result. “P-persons” usually don’t like to make plans. “I thought you were a ‘p-person’,” I said. “Why do I need to follow what my personality test tells me? It’s just for fun,” she answered. Yes, she was right. The test was just for fun. Maybe the MBTI personality test tells you something about someone. And it can also be a way to start up a talk when you meet new friends. However, the four letters don’t tell you everything about a person. Don’t let the MBTI result tell you who you are. 1．How many kinds of personalities are there in the MBTI test? A．2. B．4. C．8. D．16. 2．An “e-person” is usually________ than an “i-person” according to the MBTI result. A．smarter B．quieter C．more outgoing D．more popular 3．What can we learn about the MBTI personality test? A．It is completely scientific. B．It is the best way to get to know someone. C．It can help you know everything about someone. D．It is something you can talk about when making friends. 4．Where can we read this passage? A．In a dictionary. B．In a diary. C．In a magazine. D．In a history book. 能力综合实践5篇 Do you have any foreign friends? Do you know their characteristics (性格特征)? The Germans are very quiet and they always keep calm. They don’t like to speak more words. They look very serious. They like different kinds of activities. The Germans are very hard-working. They like tidiness, especially the women, who always keep their homes clean. In some ways, the Englishmen look the same as the Germans. They are very quiet and never talk too much with the strangers. The Englishmen are also the gentlemen (绅士). They are really polite. The Frenchmen like travelling and usually spend their long time staying in other countries. The Frenchmen are more outgoing than the Germans. It is very easy to make friends with them. Compared with the Frenchmen, the Americans are more outgoing. They don’t like to depend on others. So it is very common that the students do part-time jobs in their free time. And in Americans’ eyes, success is an important part in their life. 根据材料内容选择最佳答案。 1．According to the passage, ________ are very quiet.

C．Characteristics of foreigners D．Success is an important part in Americans’ life ①Height is just one of the thousands of features your genes (基因) decide. In fact, because you have two parents, your genes provide you a height that usually lands somewhere between the height of each parent. If both your parents are tall, then most probably you will be tall too, but if you have questions about how tall you’re going to be, ask your doctor if he or she can help you find it out. ②But genes don’t decide everything. For example, eating an unhealthy diet can stop you from growing to your full potential(潜力). Getting plenty of sleep and enough exercise will help you grow to the expected height. ③No doubt(怀疑) you’re wondering how fast you should grow. It depends. There’s no perfect or right answer. Generally speaking, kids grow about 6 centimeters a year between age 3 and the time when they start puberty (青春期) (when your body starts changing and becoming more grown up). ④Your doctor can know your growth these years. Two centimeters here and 2 inches there are not as important as the height you’re at now, how you’ve been growing up to this point, and what other changes your body may be going through. ⑤Don’t be scared if you seem to have grown a lot in a very short time. Everyone has a growth spurt (高峰) during puberty. The age for starting puberty is about 10 years old for girls and about 11 years old for boys. But it can be earlier or later—between 7 and 13 for girls and 9 and 15 for boys. You’ll usually begin to notice that you’re growing faster about a year or so after your body starts to show the first changes of puberty. 根据语篇内容，选择最佳选项。 1．Which one decides your height according to Paragraph①?

C．The puberty can be earlier or later. D．Everyone has his own growth spurt at puberty. 5．What can be inferred (推断) from the passage? A．Not only genes but also lifestyles can influence the height. B．Your doctor can control your growth. C．You must be tall if one of your parents is tall. D．Few people can get their expected height. 【语篇来自二十一世纪学生英文报·试题原创】 Are you too shy? Are you shy sometimes? The answer from 16-year-old Liu Yuexian is “Yes”. “When my teacher asked me to come to the blackboard, I was too nervous to work out the problem,” said Liu. “I thought everyone was looking at me.” Do you feel the same as Liu? Experts have found that more than 80 per cent of middle school students feel afraid to be the centre of attention. Shyness means feeling frightened when you’re around other people. Some kids are born shy. Some become shy later because of their life experiences. It’s OK if it takes you a while to feel yourself again when you go to a new place or meet new people. In fact, everybody gets a little shy sometimes. It’s just a case of how much. Most people have red faces and talk in broken sentences when they get shy. But some become so shy that they won’t go to a restaurant because they are too nervous to order and pay for their food. Some are afraid of meeting new people, so they seldom go outside. This kind of shyness can be bad for a person. If shyness doesn’t stop you from doing something you want to do, being shy isn’t a very big problem. Some experts say shy people are smarter because they think more and talk less. Shy people are also good at working with others because they think more for other people. You see, being shy isn’t all bad. But remember not to let good opportunities pass you by just because of it. If you have to sing a song at a birthday party or practise spoken English in front of others, just do it! There’s nothing to be afraid of. 1．________ of middle school students feel afraid to be the centre of attention.

Posting selfies online can be a fun way to share your life with your friends and family. But some people take their photos a bit too seriously and spend a lot of time editing (编辑) them. This not only presents a “fake” image (形象) of those people to the world, but can even make people feel worse about themselves. Researchers in Australia did a study in which 130 women aged 18 to 30 were asked to look at a series of photos. Some of the photos showed thin women, while others showed average-sized women. Afterwards the women were asked to take a selfie with an iPad and were then given 10 minutes to edit the selfie. The women were also asked about their personal dissatisfaction (不满意) with their bodies and faces several times during the experiment—before and after viewing their images, and after editing their selfies. The researchers’ findings showed that the longer the women took to edit and post their selfies, the more likely (可能的) they were to have negative (消极的) feelings about their own appearance. In addition, the more heavily edited the photos were, the more likely it was that the women were dissatisfied with their facial appearance. People are often pressured to present the best version (版本) of themselves. This, in turn, creates greater stress as they edit their photos to “perfection”, while they themselves don’t actually change, according to Professor Marika Tiggemann, one of the researchers. The findings show the difficulties people face when using social media. 1．What does the underlined word “fake” in Paragraph 1 mean? A．true B．silent C．convenient D．false 2．What are the second and third paragraphs mainly about? A．What the study is about. B．Why researchers did the study. C．How researchers carried out the study. D．Who was invited to do the study. 3．What were the women asked to do? A．Take a series of photos. B．Take and edit a selfie. C．Post their selfies online. D．Pick out the best selfie. 4．What did the study find? A．People are used to editing their selfies. B．Editing selfies can lead to self-dissatisfaction. C．Women spend more time editing their selfies. D．Viewing edited selfies can reduce negative feeling 5．What can we learn about edited selfies from the last paragraph? A．They remind people of their imperfections. B．They encourage people to make changes. C．They make it easy to use social media. D．They show the best side of a person. When you meet someone for the first time, what will you think of him or her? An American survey (调查) says that more than half of the people are in the good-looks club. You may ask, “What is a good-looks club?” Well, people in this club always put appearance first. That is to say, what a person looks like makes people think of others differently. People’s looks may affect (影响) their jobs, life or friends. An Internet survey asks 2,000 young people about it. 30% of them say they can tell about someone’s work only by his or her clothes. 10% of them say they often leave in the middle of the date (约会) because the people’s looks are not what they want. 50% of them say they will choose the one with good looks to be a new friend when they come to a new place. 80% of them believe that it is hard for the good-looking ones to live happily with the not-so-good ones. Parents and teachers always teach us not to know about people by their looks, but sometimes the first impression (印象) is very important. It can tell people your age and your job. Your habit is also in it. We can often learn about someone from what he wears and what he says. So we must learn to wear right clothes at different times and places. Our appearance can help us open the door of what other people may think of us. However, when we finally get to know someone well, ▲. That is to say, how we do things and our personalities (性格) are still the most important things that can help other people know us better. 1．What’s the meaning of the “appearance” in paragraph two? A．视力 B．外貌 C．性格 D．家世 2．The first impression can tell people something about you except (除了) ________.

A．we will find the appearance not so important B．we will find the appearance very important C．we always talk about his or her appearance D．we always like his or her appearance a lot 4．What’s the main idea of the passage? A．How to get a good impression. B．No one is in the good-look club. C．Appearance is sometimes important. D．People need to wear right clothes. 10 同步新教材，周周有练习，月月有重点！ 15 同步新教材，周周有练习，月月有重点！ 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
