They are feeling social anxiety (社交恐惧). People with social anxiety may easily communicate with intimate ones, like their family members and old friends. But meeting new friends and talking in public can make them very shy and nervous. A recent survey from China Daily. showed that about 45 percent of the 1,560 interviewees (受访者) said they experienced social anxiety. Stefan G. Hofmann, an expert from Boston University, the US, said that social anxiety is probably “a result of the fear that we will not be welcome”. For Chinese kids, there's another reason for their anxiety. Shu Man from East China Jiaotong University said, “Most of them are the only child in their families, so they don’t have many chances to practice their social skills.” But how to be social and improve your social skills? People can follow these methods. Firstly, work on your self-worth. Stop thinking of things that make you down. Do your best to stop comparing yourself with others. Secondly, start smiling and use a welcoming body, language. Remember to give others a hug when you meet them. Stop looking at your phone all the time. Lastly, just be yourself.

Understand and Deal with Social Anxiety C “Going on holiday with blind people opens your eyes,” says Wendy Coley. She often goes on tours with Travel Eyes, a company that takes tourists traveling around the world. For each tour, half of the people can see and half can’t. A person who can see travels with a person who can’t. The world is there for sighted (有视力的) people but that can cause problems for the blind. So, sighted members might describe the size and color of a building, or the smiles of strangers passing by. They might explain the food, “Our lunch is a sandwich in the center of your plate, and chips in a bowl to the right of your plate.” Clearly, it is good for blind travelers. They are able to learn about new places and make new friends. “You don’t worry about danger any more. That’s really important,” says Jenny Tween, a blind tourist. But it is also of benefit (益处) to sighted travelers. Wendy is one of them. She says that when you describe what you see, you see things in a very different way. The tour manager Hannah Vince agrees, “Sighted people learn a lot from these trips. It’s a two-way thing.” Traveling with blind people and describing the world to them makes sighted people go more slowly and look more closely at colors, shapes, and the sizes of things. Blind people can also help sighted people find more about the smells of food or flowers, and the sounds of music or traffic. In the end, this isn’t a story about people who can see helping people who can’t. It’s about people with different abilities showing each other new ways of experiencing the world and meeting new friends. ( )31. What do we know about tours with Travel Eyes? A. Most of the tourists are blind people. B. They are organized by Wendy Coley. C. A blind person travels with a sighted person. D. Blind people join in the tours at half the price. ( )32. What does the underlined word “They” in Paragraph 1 refer to? A. Tourists. B. Strangers. C. Blind people. D. Sighted members.  ( )33. How does Jenny Tween feel during the tours? A. Safe. B. Sleepy. C. Nervous. D. Surprised.  ( )34. What benefit do sighted people get from the tours? A. They cook better. B. They walk faster. C. They speak louder. D. They notice more.  ( )35. What would be the best title for the passage? A. Shared Travel. B. Help Blind People. C. Happy Holiday. D. Travel around the World. 四、阅读还原（10分） 阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项,选项中有两项为多余选项。 Do you have friends? How many friends do you have? Having a good friend can make your school life much more enjoyable.

D推理计算题。第一步，根据原文第一段可知苏炳添出生于 1989 年；第二步，根据第二段 “He took part in the regular match in November, 2004 for the first time.” 可知他首次参加常规比赛在 2004 年。通过计算 “2004 - 1989 = 15”，可知当时他 15 岁。故选 D。 23.B猜测词义题。原文第三段提到苏炳添“finished third in 9.99 seconds”，且明确他是“the first Asian-born”达成该成就；前文还提到张培萌“personal best of 10.00 seconds”，暗示 10 秒是一个重要节点。B “100 米赛跑用时少于 10 秒”，结合苏炳添的运动员身份（短跑选手）和 “9.99 秒” 的成绩，可推断该短语意为 “突破10秒大关（即用时少于 10 秒）”。故选 B。 24.B 推理判断题。根据原文第二段 “Though it’s very hard for him to win every race, he never gives up.

Hofmann提到的“fear that we will not be welcome”和Shu Man分析的“only child…don’t have many chances to practice social skills”可知，两人讨论了社交焦虑的成因。故选C。 29.C细节理解题。根据最后一段提到的改善社交技能的方法“Secondly, start smiling and use a welcoming body language. Remember to give others a hug when you meet them.”以及“Lastly, just be yourself. Take every chance to hang out with new people and those you like.”可知，应多去公共场所，对别人友好。故选C。 30.D最佳标题题。全文围绕社交焦虑的表现、原因及解决方法展开，最贴合的标题是“理解并应对社交焦虑”。故选D。 C【主旨大意】本文主要介绍了Travel Eyes公司组织的旅行活动，该活动让视力正常的人和盲人一起旅行，互相帮助，共同体验世界。 31.C细节理解题。根据“For each tour, half of the people can see and half can’t.

They might explain the food”可知，视力正常的人可能会描述建筑物的大小和颜色，或者路过的陌生人的微笑。他们也许可以解释食物，故“They”指代的是前文提到的“sighted members”，即有视力的成员。故选D。 33.A细节理解题。根据“‘You don’t worry about danger any more. That’s really important,’ says Jenny Tween.可知，Jenny在旅行中应是感到安全的。故选A。 34.D细节理解题。根据“Traveling with blind people and describing the world to them makes sighted people go more slowly and look more closely at colors, shapes, and the sizes of things.”可知，与盲人一起旅行并向他们描述世界，让视力正常的人放慢脚步，更仔细地观察颜色、形状和物体的大小，即视力正常的人在旅行中会注意到更多细节。故选D。 35.A最佳标题题。通读全文并根据“It’s about people with different abilities showing each other new ways of experiencing the world and meeting new friends.”可知，文章的核心是“共享旅行”，强调双方共同受益。故选A。 四、【主旨大意】本文段落主要提供了关于如何在学校里结交新朋友的建议，尤其是针对那些性格内向的学生，强调了友好身体语言的重要性以及如何通过共同话题开启并维持对话。 36. E 该句应紧接前文，继续描述拥有好朋友的好处，比如分享问题和相互支持。 37.B 此处需要一个过渡句引出下文的建议部分，B选项提问如何结交新朋友，自然衔接下文的建议内容。 38. F 前面提到了封闭的身体语言给人的信号，F选项提出当有人接近时应该自然微笑，作为对比，说明了开放友好的身体语言。 39. A 该空应承接前一句提出的主动搭话的方式，A选项强调这是一种打破沉默、启动对话的好方法。 40. C 最后，前文提到了找到共同点进行对话，C选项指出这将提供有趣的话题来聊，符合逻辑。 五、41—45 FCEDA 六、46.height 47.yet 48.zero 49.strawberries 50.secientific 51. truly 52. difference(s) 53. risky 54. impossible 55.actress 七、【主旨大意】本文主要讲述了Miss Lei从一个有绘画天赋的小女孩，到在高中和大学期间努力提升自己，最终成为一位成功的艺术家的故事。 56.seen 句意：如果是这样的话，你可能见过一位年轻女子在探索不同的卡通世界。根据其前的助动词have可知此处为现在完成时，故填写see的过去分词seen。 57.herself 句意：在一个视频里，她把自己变成了一位时尚女士。“turn oneself into...”是固定搭配，意为“把自己变成……”。故填写 herself。 58.traditional句意：在另一个视频里，她穿着传统的中国服饰和龙互动。此处需修饰名词 “Chinese clothes”，需用“tradition”的形容词形式“traditional”，表示“传统的”。故填写 traditional。 59.an句意：事实上，雷女士不是魔术师，而是一位艺术家。“artist”是可数名词单数，且发音以元音音素开头，前面需用不定冠词 “an”表示“一位”。故填写 an。 60.painting句意：雷女士从小就展现出绘画天赋。“talent for”是固定搭配意为 “……的天赋”，其中“for”是介词，后接动词时需用动名词形式，“paint”的动名词为“painting”。故填写painting。 61.until 句意：但直到高中，她才认真对待这份天赋。“not...until...”是固定句型，意为“直到…… 才……”，符合 “她之前没重视，高中才改变态度” 的语境。故填写until。 62.quietly句意：她常常安静地看着另一个女孩画画。此处需修饰动词“watch”，需用“quiet”的副词形式“quietly”，表示“安静地”。故填写quietly。 63.of句意：但她没有放弃，反而尽全力追赶。“instead of” 是固定短语，意为 “代替；而不是”，后接名词、代词或动名词，此处 “instead of giving up” 表示 “没有放弃”。故填写of。 64.studied句意：后来，雷女士在北京学习艺术。根据上下文语境，“学习艺术”是过去发生的动作（讲述她的经历），需用一般过去时，“study” 的过去式为“studied”。故填写 studied。 65.has become句意：到目前为止，她已经在中国出名了。根据时间状语 “so far”（到目前为止），可知此处需用现在完成时，结构为 “have/has + 过去分词”；主语 “she” 是第三人称单数，助动词用“has”，“become”的过去分词为“become”。故填写 has become。 八、One possible version: How to be a better teenager?
