And the next year I entered the 22 grade and Mrs. Leonard’s class. She was 23 with shining brown hair and warm, dark smiling eyes. Everyone 24 her. But no one love her more than I did for a special reason. The time came for the yearly “hearing tests” at our school. I was 25 able to hear something with one ear, and I was not willing to show another problem that would make me different. The “ 26 test” started, each child would go to the door of the classroom and close one ear with a 27 . Then the teacher would whisper something and the child would repeat. The same thing was done for the other ear. I had discovered that nobody checked 28 the untested ear was being covered tightly with a finger, so I planned to pretend to cover mine. My turn came. I turned my bad ear to the teacher, 29 the other with my finger, and then gently moved away my finger to be able to hear. I waited, and then came the 30 that changed my life forever. Mrs. Leonard, the pretty teacher I admired, said softly, “I wish you were my little girl.” 16．A．angry B．born C．familiar D．busy 17．A．who B．which C．what D．where 18．A．boy B．girl C．man D．woman 19．A．eye B．ear C．nose D．lip 20．A．but B．or C．and D．so 21．A．accident B．match C．test D．disaster 22．A．first B．second C．third D．fourth 23．A．clever B．humorous C．modest D．pretty 24．A．followed B．praised C．admired D．helped 25．A．hardly B．only C．especially D．specially 26．A．whisper B．shout C．smile D．talk 27．A．book B．scarf C．hand D．finger 28．A．that B．why C．if D．what 29．A．covering B．showing C．moving D．checking 30．A．teachers B．classmates C．words D．smiles 【答案】 16．B 17．A 18．B 19．D 20．C 21．A 22．B 23．D 24．C 25．B 26．A 27．D 28．C 29．A 30．C 【导语】本文主要讲述了作者天生唇腭裂，在学校遭受同学的嘲笑，这让作者深感自卑。但当作者进入二年级后，伦纳德老师的一次小测试以及她告诉作者的话语治愈了作者受伤的心灵，改变了作者的一生。 16．句意：我天生患有腭裂。 angry愤怒的；born天生的；familiar熟悉的；busy忙碌的。根据文中“I was…with a cleft palate.”可知，此处指的是作者天生的唇腭裂。故选B。 17．句意：当我开始上学时，一直嘲笑我的同学们向我明确表示，我看起来和别人不一样：一个嘴唇畸形的小女孩。 who谁；which哪个；what什么；where哪里。根据文中“When I started to go to school, my classmates…kept laughing at me”可知，句子应为缺少关系词的定语从句，先行词“classmates”为人，且在从句中作主语，空处应为关系代词“who”。故选A。 18．句意：当我开始上学时，一直嘲笑我的同学们向我明确表示，我看起来和别人不一样：一个嘴唇畸形的小女孩。 boy男孩；girl女孩；man男人；woman女人。根据文中“a little…with a misshapen lip.”及最后一句话“I wish you were my little girl.”可知，作者是一个小女孩。故选B。 19．句意：当同学们问：“你的嘴唇怎么了？” eye眼睛；ear耳朵；nose鼻子；lip嘴唇。根据上文中“a little…with a misshapen lip.”及“What happened to your …”可知，此处指的是同学询问作者关于作者嘴唇的问题。故选D。 20．句意：我告诉他们，我小时候摔倒了，摔在了一块玻璃上。 but但是；or或者；and并且；so因此。根据文中“I told them that I had fallen as a baby…cut it on a piece of glass.”可知，此处指的是作者告诉同学们她小时候摔倒了，并且摔在了一块玻璃上。空格前后句子之间为并列关系。故选C。 21．句意：有时，遭遇意外似乎比生来不同更容易被接受。 accident意外；match比赛；test测试；disaster灾难。根据文中“Sometimes it seemed more acceptable to have suffered…than to have been born different.”及上文可知，作者认为遭受意外更容易被其他人接受。故选A。 22．句意：第二年，我进入了二年级和伦纳德女士的班。 first第一；second第二；third第三；fourth第四。根据文中“By the age of seven when I was in Grade 1, I was sure that no one except my family could ever like me.

Did you see that?” he asked. “Jackson just totally fell down there!” “Oh, no! Is he okay?” asked Eva. “It looks like he hurt his knee.” Just as they were still talking about this, Mandy caught up with them. “What are you guys talking about?” she asked. “Jackson just fell and hurt his knee,” said Eva. “Was he bleeding (流血)?” asked Mandy. The story began to spread. Within an hour, Kevin heard the whole story. “Jackson got hit by a car on his way home. There was blood everywhere, and he was sent to hospital. That night, Oliver got more information. “ ▲ He doesn’t even remember anything about the accident! He won’t be at school for at least four weeks.” The next morning, everybody at school was talking about Jackson. “Lucky Jackson,” Maya said. “He gets to miss so much school.” “The poor guy can’t even move, and you think he’s lucky?” said Kathy. Bob shook his head sadly, “He was so good at soccer—what if he can never play again?” “Maybe we should send him a card or visit him in the hospital,” suggested Bill. “Will he even remember us?” asked Gina. “I can’t believe he lost his memory!” Lisa cried.

Scientists are suggesting that humans manage to contact people’s names with their appearance, and can even guess someone’s name based on how they look. Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in Israel collected thousands of photos of people’s faces. They labeled each photo with four names. Then, they asked volunteers to guess which of the four names was correct. The volunteers guessed nearly four names correctly out of ten. It seems that humans are able to recognize (认出) certain characteristics of faces that can give them clues about someone’s name, Reader’s Digest reported. However, this only works when we’re looking at names within our own culture. In addition,the volunteers were not as good at guessing the real names of people who use nicknames more often than their real names. This shows that a person’s appearance is influenced by his name only if they use it often. This kind of face-name matching happens “because of a process of self-fulfilling prophecy (自我实现预言), as we become what other people expect us to become”,Ruth Mayo from the university told science news website Eurek Alert. Earlier studies have shown that gender (性别) and race (种族) stereotypes (刻板印象) can influence a person’s appearance. The researchers believe there are also similar stereotypes about names. For example, people manage to think that men named Bob should have rounder faces because the word itself looks round. People may think that women named Rose are beautiful. They expect them to be delicate and feminine, just like the flower they are named for. 38．What does the passage mainly tell us? A．A person’s appearance can be influenced by three factors. B．There are several ways to guess a stranger’s name. C．People can guess others’ names according to their appearance. D．It’s not polite to ask strangers about their names. 39．Dr Ruth Mayo thinks some people look like their names because of ________. A．their different cultures B．a self-fulfilling prophecy C．racial stereotypes D．their living environment 40．According to the passage, girls named Cherry are expected to ________. A．wear glasses B．have big eyes C．look cute and lovely D．have round faces 41．What do we know from this research? A．Nicknames have a bigger influence on people’s appearance. B．Gender and race have no influence on a person’s appearance. C．The volunteers were able to guess 40% of the names correctly. D．People are good at recognizing the different characteristics of faces. 【答案】38．C 39．B 40．C 41．C 【导语】本文讲述人们可以根据外表猜测出别人的名字，一个人的外表会受名字的影响。 38．主旨大意题。根据”Scientists are suggesting that humans manage to contact people’s names with their appearance, and can even guess someone’s name based on how they look”可知，这篇文章告诉我们人们可以通过外表猜测别人的名字。故选C。 39．细节理解题。根据”This kind of face-name matching happens ‘because of s process of self-fulfilling prophecy (自我实现预言), as we become what other people expect us to become’.”可知，他认为是因为自我实现的预言。故选B。 40． 细节理解题。根据”They expect them to be delicate and feminine, just like the flower they are named for.”可推知，被叫Cherry的女孩通常期望她们看起来娇小可爱。故选C。 41． 细节理解题。根据”The volunteers guessed nearly four names correctly out of ten”可知，每10个名字中，志愿者们猜对了近4个，所以有40%的正确率。故选C。 ①Everybody knows that Earth spins from west to east. That is to say, it appears to be turning counterclockwise (逆时针) rapidly when viewed from above the North Pole. But what if Earth started spinning the other way? ②Scientists from Germany have made a computer simulation in which Earth spins in the opposite direction-clockwise when viewed from above the North Pole. This showed them some interesting things about the weather and geography on Earth, Live Science reported. ③As Earth spins in a counterclockwise direction, it shapes certain ocean currents (洋流). The direction of ocean (3b) currents, together with winds, produces different weathers around the globe. But a backward spin changes the ocean currents and winds. ▲ Western areas of the lands on Earth cool down as the eastern parts warm up. Winters become even colder in northwestern Europe, while eastern Russia becomes warmer than before. Rain no longer falls on the planet's wettest places. ④Another result of a backward spin is that Earth becomes greener. Scientists found that global desert areas reduce from 42 million square kilometers to 31 million square kilometers. This may have something to do with the changing weather. Therefore, you can see rich green landscapes from Central Africa to the Middle East, which are mostly covered by deserts now. More surprisingly, the Sahara  Desert becomes an oasis. ⑤However, deserts don’t disappear. They just appear in some places in which they never appeared before. Deserts would cover North America, where countries like the United States and Canada lie. Sand dunes would replace the Amazon rainforest in South America. ⑥A backward spin would keep the main features of Earth’s geography, such as the size, shapes and positions of lands and oceans. But it would change the interactions between circulating air, ocean and geography lead scientist Florian Ziemen told Live Science. 42．Which of the following sentences can be put in the blank of Paragraph 3? A．Anyway deserts cover the planet. B．Therefore, the weather is different. C．However the positions of oceans changes. D．Surprisingly the area of lands is larger. 43．What would a backward spin bring to Earth? A．The direction of ocean currents and winds would be different. B．Rain would no longer fall on western areas of the lands on Earth. C．Deserts would become larger and cover the planet’s wettest places. D．The size, shapes and positions of lands and oceans would be changed. 44．The passage is most probably taken from a magazine on __________. A．history B．traveling C．biology D．geography 45．Which of the following is the right structure of the passage? A．①--②--③④--⑤⑥ B．①--②--③④⑤--⑥ C．①--②③④⑤--⑥ D．①②--③--④--⑤⑥ 【答案】42．B 43．A 44．D 45．B 【导语】本文主要讲了科学家研究的地球顺时针旋转时会发生什么事情。 42．细节理解题。根据“But a backward spin changes the ocean currents and winds.”及下文的 “Western areas of the lands on Earth cool down as the eastern parts warm up. Winters become even colder in northwestern Europe, while eastern Russia becomes warmer than before. Rain no longer falls on the planet's wettest places.”可知，此处介绍的与天气有关，选项B“因此，天气不同。”符合语境。故选B。 43．细节理解题。根据“A backward spin would keep the main features of Earth’s geography, such as the size, shapes and positions of lands and oceans. But it would change the interactions between circulating air, ocean and geography lead scientist Florian Ziemen told Live Science.”可知，向后旋转会给地球带来洋流和风的方向的不同。故选A。 44．推理判断题。根据文章内容可知，主要讲的是每个人都知道地球从西向东转，那么如果颠倒了地球自转方向会发生什么呢？来自德国的科学家们做了这样一个假设的实验，他们颠倒了地球的自转方向，发现地球上的洋流、气候都发生了变化。可知，这段话很可能是从一本“地理”杂志上摘取的。故选D。 45．篇章结构题。根据“Everybody knows that Earth spins from west to east. That is to say, it appears to be turning counterclockwise (逆时针) rapidly when viewed from above the North Pole. But what if Earth started spinning the other way?”可知，第一段提出一个问题；根据 “Scientists from Germany have made a computer simulation in which Earth spins in the opposite direction-clockwise when viewed from above the North Pole. This showed them some interesting things about the weather and geography on Earth, Live Science reported.”第二段介绍了德国科学家所作的实验；③④⑤是实验过程；第⑥段属于总结。因此正确的是①--②--③④⑤--⑥。故选B。 四、词汇运用(共10小题；每小题1分，计10分) 根据句子意思，用括号中所给汉语提示或英语单词的适当形式填空。在答题卡标有题号的横线上，写出空缺处所填单词的正确形式。(每空一词) 46．His (灵魂) has left him and all that remains is the shell of his body. 【答案】spirit 【详解】句意：他已灵魂出窍，剩下的只是他的躯壳。根据“His...(灵魂) has left him and all that remains is the shell of his body.”可知，此处表示他的灵魂已出窍，此空前是形容词性物主代词his“他的”，所以此空应是名词spirit“灵魂”，为不可数名词。故填spirit。 47．With a computer (连接) to the Internet, learners can have the courses anywhere. 【答案】connected 【详解】句意：有了联网的电脑，学习者可以在任何地方上课。连接“connect”，句中已有谓语动词，此处与逻辑主语“a computer”是被动关系，因此此处是过去分词。故填connected。 48．We should treasure our own （宝贵的）art and culture, such as shadow play and paper cutting. 【答案】valuable 【详解】句意：我们应该珍惜自己宝贵的艺术和文化，比如皮影戏和剪纸。valuable“宝贵的”，作定语修饰其后的名词，故填valuable。 49．What difficulty do you have (处理) with the problem of stress? 【答案】dealing 【详解】句意：处理压力问题你有什么困难吗？根据have difficulty (in) doing“做某事有困难”，deal with“处理”。故填dealing。 50．Mom requires that all family members finish our meal in total (沉默). 【答案】silence 【详解】句意：妈妈要求所有的家庭成员完全沉默地吃完饭。根据汉语提示可知本题考查silence“沉默”名词，in total silence“静静地，沉默地”，作状语，符合语境，故填silence。 51．Ms Meng Wanzhou’s returning to China is not only her (person) victory. 【答案】personal 【详解】句意：孟晚舟女士重返中国不仅仅是她个人的胜利。分析句子结构可知此处为形容词修饰名词“victory”，person的形容词personal“个人的”符合语境。故填personal。 52．Each of us should try our best to spread love and (warm) to build a better world. 【答案】warmth 【详解】句意：我们每个人都应该尽最大努力传播爱和温暖，以建设一个更美好的世界。根据“spread love and...”可知空处填名词。warm“温暖的”，形容词，warmth“温暖”，名词，故填warmth。 53．Learn to enjoy the feeling of (sad), and it will help you think deeply. 【答案】sadness 【详解】句意：学会享受悲伤的感觉，它会帮助你深入思考。“of”后接名词，sad的名词形式是sadness。故填sadness。 54．Pay attention to your (pronounce) when reading these new English words. 【答案】pronunciation 【详解】句意：读这些英语新单词时，请注意你的发音。your后接名词，pronounce“发音”，pronunciation“发音”，不可数名词。故填pronunciation。 55．The World Health Organization (WHO) has listed the top 10 causes of (die) across the globe. 【答案】death 【详解】句意：世界卫生组织(WHO)列出了全球十大死亡原因。根据“The World Health Organization (WHO) has listed the top 10 causes of...”可知，此处要用名词，die“死亡”的名词形式为death。故填death。 五、阅读表达(共5小题；每小题2分，计10分) 阅读下面短文，用英语回答短文后的问题（每题回答字数不超过10个词）。 How do you feel about exams? If you’re anxious (焦虑的) about your exams, don’t worry, you’re not alone. Every year many young people sit exams and most of them will face some anxiety before the big day. Eating the right food can feed your brain and keep you active. Nutritional therapist Kerry Torrens recommends making breakfast the most important meal of the day. She recommends eating energy, like oats (燕麦) and eggs to help improve memory as we age. And she also advises drinking lots of water. Some research says students who take water into the exam hall may even improve their grades. A good night’s sleep will always help you work and think better the next day. If you get good sleep, you can remember the information you have revised better. And it’s good to wind down before bedtime too—no watching TV or chatting on social media! Another good way to reduce your stress is to learn to free your mind. Lisa Artis from the Sleep Council, says when your mind can’t take in any more information, you need to stop. It’s good to take breaks or reward yourself, like a cake or a quick run around the block. And don’t forget that there are some people who will always be more anxious than you: your parents! They’re there to support you but they’ll also be worrying about you and the final results. So maybe sometimes you need to give them some advice—take it easy, everything will be OK! 56．Which diet does Kerry Torrens recommend for breakfast? 57．What can’t you do to have a good night’s sleep before bedtime? 58．How can you free your mind when you have trouble studying? 59．Why are your parents also anxious? 60．What else can you do to reduce your stress about exams? 【答案】56．(Having) Oats, eggs and water. 57．We can’t watch TV or chat on social media. 58．We can stop (to take breaks or reward ourselves/have a cake or a quick run )./By taking breaks or rewarding ourselves/having a cake or a quick run. 59．They’re worrying/worried about us and the final results. 60．We can share/talk about problems with our friends/classmates. (言之有理皆可得分) 【导语】本文主要介绍了在考试期间如何通过饮食、睡眠和放松来减轻焦虑。 56．根据“She recommends eating energy, like oats (燕麦) and eggs to help improve memory as we age. And she also advises drinking lots of water.”可知，她建议早餐吃燕麦、鸡蛋和喝很多水。故填(Having) Oats, eggs and water. 57．根据“And it’s good to wind down before bedtime too—no watching TV or chatting on social media!”可知，睡前不能看电视或在社交媒体上聊天。故填We can’t watch TV or chat on social media. 58．根据“It’s good to take breaks or reward yourself, like a cake or a quick run around the block.”可知，为学习烦恼时，我们可以休息一下或者犒劳一下自己，如吃块蛋糕或者绕着街区跑一圈。故填We can stop (to take breaks or reward ourselves/have a cake or a quick run )./By taking breaks or rewarding ourselves/having a cake or a quick run. 59．根据“They’ re there to support you but they’ll also be worrying about you and the final results.”可知，父母会担心我们和最终的结果。故填They’re worrying/worried about us and the final results. 60．开放性试题，答案不唯一。参考答案为We can share/talk about problems with our friends/classmates. 六、短文填空(共10空；每空1分，计10分) 根据短文内容和首字母提示，在下文空格处填入适当的词使短文完整。（每空一词） The sun was dropping down the mountains far away.

I was 16 with a cleft palate (腭裂). When I started to go to school, my classmates 17 kept laughing at me, made it clear to me that I look different from others: a little 18 with a misshapen (畸形) lip. I couldn’t even blow up a balloon without holding my nose. When schoolmates asked, “What happened to your 19 ?” I told them that I had fallen as a baby 20 cut it on a piece of glass. Sometimes it seemed more acceptable to have suffered a(n) 21 than to have been born different. By the age of seven when I was in Grade 1, I was sure that no one except my family could ever like me. And the next year I entered the 22 grade and Mrs. Leonard’s class. She was 23 with shining brown hair and warm, dark smiling eyes. Everyone 24 her. But no one love her more than I did for a special reason. The time came for the yearly “hearing tests” at our school. I was 25 able to hear something with one ear, and I was not willing to show another problem that would make me different. The “ 26 test” started, each child would go to the door of the classroom and close one ear with a 27 . Then the teacher would whisper something and the child would repeat. The same thing was done for the other ear. I had discovered that nobody checked 28 the untested ear was being covered tightly with a finger, so I planned to pretend to cover mine. My turn came. I turned my bad ear to the teacher, 29 the other with my finger, and then gently moved away my finger to be able to hear. I waited, and then came the 30 that changed my life forever. Mrs. Leonard, the pretty teacher I admired, said softly, “I wish you were my little girl.” 16．A．angry B．born C．familiar D．busy 17．A．who B．which C．what D．where 18．A．boy B．girl C．man D．woman 19．A．eye B．ear C．nose D．lip 20．A．but B．or C．and D．so 21．A．accident B．match C．test D．disaster 22．A．first B．second C．third D．fourth 23．A．clever B．humorous C．modest D．pretty 24．A．followed B．praised C．admired D．helped 25．A．hardly B．only C．especially D．specially 26．A．whisper B．shout C．smile D．talk 27．A．book B．scarf C．hand D．finger 28．A．that B．why C．if D．what 29．A．covering B．showing C．moving D．checking 30．A．teachers B．classmates C．words D．smiles 三、阅读理解(共15小题；每小题2分，计30分) 阅读下列内容，从每小题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出一个最佳答案。 WELCOME TO THE LIBRARY ●READ●LEARN●GROW● Opening Hours Monday to Friday 10 a.m.～4 p.m. Library Rules 1.

He put down his backpack and tied them. Eva and Dave were riding down the other side of the street. Suddenly, Dave stopped and pointed. “Whoa! Did you see that?” he asked. “Jackson just totally fell down there!” “Oh, no! Is he okay?” asked Eva. “It looks like he hurt his knee.” Just as they were still talking about this, Mandy caught up with them. “What are you guys talking about?” she asked. “Jackson just fell and hurt his knee,” said Eva. “Was he bleeding (流血)?” asked Mandy. The story began to spread. Within an hour, Kevin heard the whole story. “Jackson got hit by a car on his way home. There was blood everywhere, and he was sent to hospital. That night, Oliver got more information. “ ▲ He doesn’t even remember anything about the accident! He won’t be at school for at least four weeks.” The next morning, everybody at school was talking about Jackson. “Lucky Jackson,” Maya said. “He gets to miss so much school.” “The poor guy can’t even move, and you think he’s lucky?” said Kathy. Bob shook his head sadly, “He was so good at soccer—what if he can never play again?” “Maybe we should send him a card or visit him in the hospital,” suggested Bill. “Will he even remember us?” asked Gina. “I can’t believe he lost his memory!” Lisa cried. Just then, Jackson came around the corner and walked over to Gina and Lisa. “Hey guys, what’s going on?” he asked. Everyone stopped talking and stared at him. 34．What was Jackson doing when he almost fell? A．Tying his shoelaces. B．Riding his bike home. C．Walking in the street.

A．shocked B．scared C．upset D．disappointed 37．The best title for the passage can probably be ________. A．A Funny Friend B．He Said, She Said C．A Terrible Accident D．He Hurt, She Cared Have you ever had an experience where you meet someone new, learn his name and think to yourself, “Wow, they really look just like their names!” What does this mean exactly? Scientists are suggesting that humans manage to contact people’s names with their appearance, and can even guess someone’s name based on how they look. Researchers at the Hebrew University of Jerusalem in Israel collected thousands of photos of people’s faces. They labeled each photo with four names. Then, they asked volunteers to guess which of the four names was correct. The volunteers guessed nearly four names correctly out of ten. It seems that humans are able to recognize (认出) certain characteristics of faces that can give them clues about someone’s name, Reader’s Digest reported. However, this only works when we’re looking at names within our own culture. In addition,the volunteers were not as good at guessing the real names of people who use nicknames more often than their real names. This shows that a person’s appearance is influenced by his name only if they use it often. This kind of face-name matching happens “because of a process of self-fulfilling prophecy (自我实现预言), as we become what other people expect us to become”,Ruth Mayo from the university told science news website Eurek Alert. Earlier studies have shown that gender (性别) and race (种族) stereotypes (刻板印象) can influence a person’s appearance. The researchers believe there are also similar stereotypes about names. For example, people manage to think that men named Bob should have rounder faces because the word itself looks round. People may think that women named Rose are beautiful. They expect them to be delicate and feminine, just like the flower they are named for. 38．What does the passage mainly tell us? A．A person’s appearance can be influenced by three factors. B．There are several ways to guess a stranger’s name. C．People can guess others’ names according to their appearance. D．It’s not polite to ask strangers about their names. 39．Dr Ruth Mayo thinks some people look like their names because of ________. A．their different cultures B．a self-fulfilling prophecy C．racial stereotypes D．their living environment 40．According to the passage, girls named Cherry are expected to ________. A．wear glasses B．have big eyes C．look cute and lovely D．have round faces 41．What do we know from this research? A．Nicknames have a bigger influence on people’s appearance. B．Gender and race have no influence on a person’s appearance. C．The volunteers were able to guess 40% of the names correctly. D．People are good at recognizing the different characteristics of faces. ①Everybody knows that Earth spins from west to east. That is to say, it appears to be turning counterclockwise (逆时针) rapidly when viewed from above the North Pole. But what if Earth started spinning the other way? ②Scientists from Germany have made a computer simulation in which Earth spins in the opposite direction-clockwise when viewed from above the North Pole. This showed them some interesting things about the weather and geography on Earth, Live Science reported. ③As Earth spins in a counterclockwise direction, it shapes certain ocean currents (洋流). The direction of ocean (3b) currents, together with winds, produces different weathers around the globe. But a backward spin changes the ocean currents and winds. ▲ Western areas of the lands on Earth cool down as the eastern parts warm up. Winters become even colder in northwestern Europe, while eastern Russia becomes warmer than before. Rain no longer falls on the planet's wettest places. ④Another result of a backward spin is that Earth becomes greener. Scientists found that global desert areas reduce from 42 million square kilometers to 31 million square kilometers. This may have something to do with the changing weather. Therefore, you can see rich green landscapes from Central Africa to the Middle East, which are mostly covered by deserts now. More surprisingly, the Sahara  Desert becomes an oasis. ⑤However, deserts don’t disappear. They just appear in some places in which they never appeared before.

If you’re anxious (焦虑的) about your exams, don’t worry, you’re not alone. Every year many young people sit exams and most of them will face some anxiety before the big day. Eating the right food can feed your brain and keep you active. Nutritional therapist Kerry Torrens recommends making breakfast the most important meal of the day. She recommends eating energy, like oats (燕麦) and eggs to help improve memory as we age. And she also advises drinking lots of water. Some research says students who take water into the exam hall may even improve their grades. A good night’s sleep will always help you work and think better the next day. If you get good sleep, you can remember the information you have revised better. And it’s good to wind down before bedtime too—no watching TV or chatting on social media! Another good way to reduce your stress is to learn to free your mind. Lisa Artis from the Sleep Council, says when your mind can’t take in any more information, you need to stop. It’s good to take breaks or reward yourself, like a cake or a quick run around the block. And don’t forget that there are some people who will always be more anxious than you: your parents! They’re there to support you but they’ll also be worrying about you and the final results. So maybe sometimes you need to give them some advice—take it easy, everything will be OK! 56．Which diet does Kerry Torrens recommend for breakfast? 57．What can’t you do to have a good night’s sleep before bedtime? 58．How can you free your mind when you have trouble studying? 59．Why are your parents also anxious? 60．What else can you do to reduce your stress about exams? 六、短文填空(共10空；每空1分，计10分) 根据短文内容和首字母提示，在下文空格处填入适当的词使短文完整。（每空一词） The sun was dropping down the mountains far away.
