Some people think asking for help is a sign of weakness, but the complete opposite is true. It takes strength to ask for help. It’s a hard thing to do. The truth is, there are more good people than bad. People truly want to help others. No one should ever have to be in that dark place.
I have a friend called Diane. Diane is one of the most positive people I have ever known. She is smart and funny, and by looking at her you would certainly think she had a perfect life. No one knew the terrible things she was dealing with. She never asked anyone for help when she was in great trouble. She thought that she would just be bothering people if she told them the truth. She thought loneliness was her answer. She masked her loneliness, but one day she hit her breaking point.
Diane tried to take her life one morning. She was lucky, though. Someone found her before it was too late. People finally knew her problems and with their help she got rid of them. She once told me that her biggest regret was not reaching out to someone sooner. Diane has greatly changed. She’s become positive and is always ready to help others.
Diane and I have grown quite close. She has helped me battle my own problems. She is an example of what help looks like.
To anyone out there who feels they are alone, I hope you know you are not. Even if you feel the world is closing in on you, there are people who care—people who will surprise you in the best ways. The best thing about our technological world is how easily you can reach people. Don’t be afraid to ask for help. You are not alone.
4. What does the author mean by saying “the complete opposite is true” in Paragraph 1?
A. Getting help from others is a great shame. B. Asking for help shows great courage.
C. It takes bravery to offer help. D. It is difficult to get help.
5. Why did Diane refuse to ask for help at first?
A. She was very positive. B. She had no one to turn to.
C. She considered help useless. D. She feared to make trouble for others.
6. What does the author think of our technological world today?
A. It makes people afraid of face-to-face conversation.
B. It makes communication between people easier.
C. It offers a variety of ways to care for others.
D. It is likely to make people feel lonely.
7. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To share a friend’s story.
B. To explain why people refuse to get help.
C. To encourage us to ask for help if necessary.
D. To show the harm of keeping problems ourselves.
【答案】4. B 5. D 6. B 7. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文。文章通过个人经历论证“求助需要勇气”的观点,最终呼吁读者打破心理障碍、主动寻求支持。
【4题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“the complete opposite is true(事实完全相反)”前的转折连词but和上文的句子“Some people think asking for help is a sign of weakness(有些人认为寻求帮助是软弱的表现)”以及下文的句子“It takes strength to ask for help(寻求帮助需要力量)”可知,作者认为“求助其实是勇气的表现”。故选B项。
【5题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段的句子“She never asked anyone for help when she was in great trouble. She thought that she would just be bothering people if she told them the truth.(她遇到大麻烦时从不向任何人求助。她认为如果她告诉人们真相,她只会打扰他们)”可知,Diane一开始拒绝寻求帮助是因为她担心给别人添麻烦。故选D项。
【6题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段的句子“The best thing about our technological world is how easily you can reach people(在我们这个科技世界里,最好的事情就是你可以很容易地联系到人们)”可知,作者认为科技让沟通更便捷。故选B项。
【7题详解】
推理判断题。文章以Diane的经历为例,呼吁“Don’t be afraid to ask for help. You are not alone(不要害怕寻求帮助。你并不孤单)”因此,作者的写作目的是鼓励人们在必要时主动寻求帮助。故选C项。

When I was young, I loved paper cutting and I was pretty good at it. As I grew up, I became busy and didn’t have much time for it. Later, I stopped doing it.
However, the news I came across online touched my heart and changed my mind. A little girl from Jieyang, Guangdong was practicing lion dance when a professional lion dance performance team (专业舞狮表演队) passed by. As soon as they saw the girl practicing, they started to beat drums and gongs for her and quickly she did a lion dance in return. People around all cheered for her. Her love for the ancient Chinese culture evoked my strong memories of paper cutting.
I remembered the happy times of making paper cuttings with my teacher and friends in the club. When I was ten, I joined the paper cutting club. Every Monday and Friday, I learned to make paper cuttings there. Our teacher, Ms. Li, was very talented. With a pair of scissors and a piece of paper, she could create lively works (作品). That amazed us. And we learned much from her. Together, we created lots of works. They covered many topics, including animals, flowers and things about Chinese history. Every time we held a paper cutting show, our works attracted many visitors. The girl in the news encouraged me to go on with paper cutting. I want to be an inheritor (继承者) of the ancient Chinese culture. Together with other inheritors, I hope to pass down our excellent culture.

How would you survive without your smartphone? For many of us, it’s the device we’re most attracted to — looking at it hundreds of times a day. We depend on it to perform different tasks and to connect with our friends and family. But have we become addicted to our phones?
Certainly, the inventor of the first mobile phone, American engineer Martin Cooper, thinks we might be. In a BBC interview, he suggested people should stop scrolling (刷屏) and “get a life”. But of course, once we start scrolling or watching videos, we just can’t kick the habit. Psychologist and author Jean Twenge says, “we’re all guilty of habitually checking our phones if waiting for a text or getting really into social media then kind of, looking up and realizing that an hour has passed.” There’s even a word — a phubber — to describe a person who ignores the real people around them because they are concentrating on their phones.
But does it matter if we make the most of this technology? Possibly because like a drug, the problem arises when it is taken away. A study from King’s College London found young people they studied couldn’t control the amount of time they spent on their phone. Such addictive behavior means that people become anxious or upset if they are refused constant access, which can cause anxiety and mental health issues.
Interestingly, another study by the London School of Economics and Political Science suggests we don’t just look at our phones because we are encouraged by a text or e-mail. The people they studied felt natural to interact with their phones, just as a smoker would light a cigarette. Prof. Saadi Lahlou, co-author of the study, told the BBC, “We must learn tricks to avoid the temptation (诱惑) when we want to concentrate or have good social relations.”
One solution could be an app that rewards students for time spent away from their phones. Another choice is changing your smartphone to an ordinary phone that has none of the distractions (分心事) on it. But mainly perhaps, we just need to look up more and reconnect with the real world.
12. What did Martin Cooper suggest people do?
A. Learn tricks to avoid the temptation. B. Enjoy life by stopping the habit of scrolling (刷屏).
C. Change their smartphones to ordinary phones. D. Use an app that rewards them for less phone use.
13. Why do people feel ashamed after checking their phones?
A. For not being productive enough. B. For missing important texts or calls.
C. For using their phones for a long time. D. For not being able to connect with others.
14. What does the study from King’s College London imply?
A. The young shouldn’t use their phones. B. Using phones leads the young to be anxious.
C. Curing phone addiction is not an easy job. D. Young people can’t survive without phones.
15. What is the main message of the text?
A. Smartphones are essential (极重要的) for modern life.
B. Smartphones have a certain impact (影响) on mental health.
C. The inventor of the mobile phone should be punished (处罚) .
D. People should avoid their addiction (上瘾) to smart phones.
【答案】12. B 13. C 14. B 15. D
【解析】

【12题详解】
细节理解题。 根据第二段中“In a BBC interview, he suggested people should stop scrolling (刷屏) and “get a life”.(在BBC的一次采访中,他建议人们应该停止刷屏,“过好自己的生活”)”可知,Martin Cooper建议人们停止刷屏,好好享受生活。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“Psychologist and author Jean Twenge says, “we’re all guilty of habitually checking our phones if waiting for a text or getting really into social media then kind of, looking up and realizing that an hour has passed.”(心理学家兼作家Jean Twenge说:“我们都有习惯性地查看手机的毛病,比如等短信或者沉迷于社交媒体,然后抬头一看,发现一个小时已经过去了。”)”可知,人们查看手机后感到羞愧是因为他们使用手机的时间太长了。故选C。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中“A study from King’s College London found young people they studied couldn’t control the amount of time they spent on their phone. Such addictive behavior means that people become anxious or upset if they are refused constant access, which can cause anxiety and mental health issues.(伦敦国王学院的一项研究发现,他们研究的年轻人无法控制自己花在手机上的时间。这种成瘾行为意味着,如果人们被拒绝持续使用手机,他们会变得焦虑或不安,这会导致焦虑和心理健康问题)”可知,这项研究暗示使用手机会让年轻人感到焦虑。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“How would you survive without your smartphone? For many of us, it’s the device we’re most attracted to — looking at it hundreds of times a day. We depend on it to perform different tasks and to connect with our friends and family. But have we become addicted to our phones?(没有智能手机,你该如何生存?对我们中的许多人来说,这是我们最喜欢的设备——每天看几百次。我们依靠它来执行不同的任务,并与朋友和家人联系。但是我们对手机上瘾了吗?)”,最后一段中“But mainly perhaps, we just need to look up more and reconnect with the real world.(但也许最重要的是,我们只需要多抬头看看,重新与现实世界建立联系)”以及全文内容可知,文章主要讨论了人们对智能手机的上瘾问题,以及这种上瘾对人们心理健康的影响,最后提出了避免手机上瘾的建议。因此,文章的主要信息是人们应该避免对智能手机的上瘾。故选D。

第二节(满分25分)
47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The continuous knock on the door brought me quickly from my kitchen. I hurried to answer.
We had just moved into the neighbourhood and I couldn’t imagine who it would be. Opening the door, I saw an old man dressed in dirty clothing. From his hand hung a torn plastic (塑料制的) bag.
“Can I help you?” I asked, hoping he had the wrong address.
“Would you like to buy some fresh garden vegetables?” he said.
“Are they from your garden?” Looking inside his bag, I saw mostly dirt, with several carrots.
“Yes.” His voice was soft. “And I can get some apples from a tree in my yard. Would you like some of those too?”
My heart softened, and I wondered if he really needed the bit of money he was asking for his produce.
I asked him in. “Please step inside and I’ll get my wallet.”
The next day, he knocked at our door again. This time, my little four-year-old Heidi got there first. “Oh, hello. Would you like to come in for tea?”
Without hesitating, the old man stepped inside and held out a broken basket with several apples resting at the bottom.
“You might like to make a pie,” he said.
There was no mistaking the wistful (渴望的) look in his eye.
We sat at the kitchen table and drank our tea. Great excitement at hosting a visitor was obvious in my three children’s never-ending stream of questions. “What is your name? Where do you live? Why are your clothes so dirty?”
The homeless-looking man laughed as he answered each question. His name was Mr. Locket and he lived around the corner. His wife had passed away several years before, and his children lived far away. He was lonely. His need for companionship ( 交往) had sent him door to door under the ruse (计策) of selling fruit and vegetables. Ours was the only door opened to him that day.
Finally, the cookies were gone and he rose to his feet. On his way to the door, he turned and offered us a cheerful smile and a wave goodbye. He had promised to return tomorrow, and I knew what I wanted to do.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
The next day, the children excitedly waited for his visit.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The next day, we found a basket sitting on the step.
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
The next day, the children excitedly waited for his visit. The table was set with cups and dishes. The delicious smell of apple pies filled the house. As he entered the kitchen, his eyes filled with tears. Pulling up a chair, he immediately seemed at home, and we watched with amazement as he ate up half the pies. “Your pies taste a lot better than mine!” he commented. I smiled and offered him a few tips on making pies.
The next day, we found a basket sitting on the step. Inside were several rosy apples. I made another pie that night. As the days passed, Mr. Locket became a daily visitor to our active home. In his quiet and gentle way, he made himself popular with each child. I loved to look around the kitchen door and watch as he sat in our big chair with my children beside him, looking up at him with full attention as he read a children’s book or told a story.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开,讲述当我正在厨房时,一位老人敲门。打开门,我看见一个穿着脏衣服的老人,手里挂着一个破塑料袋。交谈之中,了解到Locket先生妻子几年前去世了,孩子们住在很远的地方。他很孤独,需要有人陪伴,所以他只得打着卖水果和蔬菜的幌子挨家挨户地敲门。当道别时,他答应明天回来,我知道我要做什么。
详解】1. 段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“第二天,孩子们兴奋地等待着他的来访。”可知,本段可以写为老人的来访所作的准备,老人很感动。老人吃到自己送的苹果做成的派感叹好吃,我分享制作技巧。
②由第二段首句内容“第二天,我们发现台阶上放着一个篮子。”可知,本段可以写篮子里是老人摘的苹果,我又做了苹果派。老人成了我家的常客,孩子们也很喜欢老人的温情场景。
2. 续写线索:我们的准备——老人很感动——老人惊讶于我做的苹果派的美味——我分享制作技巧——老人又送了些苹果——老人成为常客——孩子们和老人的互动

Some people think asking for help is a sign of weakness, but the complete opposite is true. It takes strength to ask for help. It’s a hard thing to do. The truth is, there are more good people than bad. People truly want to help others. No one should ever have to be in that dark place.
I have a friend called Diane. Diane is one of the most positive people I have ever known. She is smart and funny, and by looking at her you would certainly think she had a perfect life. No one knew the terrible things she was dealing with. She never asked anyone for help when she was in great trouble. She thought that she would just be bothering people if she told them the truth. She thought loneliness was her answer. She masked her loneliness, but one day she hit her breaking point.
Diane tried to take her life one morning. She was lucky, though. Someone found her before it was too late. People finally knew her problems and with their help she got rid of them. She once told me that her biggest regret was not reaching out to someone sooner. Diane has greatly changed. She’s become positive and is always ready to help others.
Diane and I have grown quite close. She has helped me battle my own problems. She is an example of what help looks like.
To anyone out there who feels they are alone, I hope you know you are not. Even if you feel the world is closing in on you, there are people who care—people who will surprise you in the best ways. The best thing about our technological world is how easily you can reach people. Don’t be afraid to ask for help. You are not alone.
4. What does the author mean by saying “the complete opposite is true” in Paragraph 1?
A. Getting help from others is a great shame. B. Asking for help shows great courage.
C. It takes bravery to offer help. D. It is difficult to get help.
5. Why did Diane refuse to ask for help at first?
A. She was very positive. B. She had no one to turn to.
C. She considered help useless. D. She feared to make trouble for others.
6. What does the author think of our technological world today?
A. It makes people afraid of face-to-face conversation.
B. It makes communication between people easier.
C. It offers a variety of ways to care for others.
D. It is likely to make people feel lonely.
7. What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text?
A. To share a friend’s story.
B. To explain why people refuse to get help.
C. To encourage us to ask for help if necessary.
D. To show the harm of keeping problems ourselves.
C
When I was young I loved paper cutting and I was pretty good at it. As I grew up, I became busy and didn’t have much time for it. Later, I stopped doing it.
However, the news I came across online touched my heart and changed my mind. A little girl from Jieyang, Guangdong was practicing lion dance when a professional lion dance performance team (专业舞狮表演队) passed by. As soon as they saw the girl practicing, they started to beat drums and gongs for her and quickly she did a lion dance in return. People around all cheered for her. Her love for the ancient Chinese culture evoked my strong memories of paper cutting.
I remembered the happy times of making paper cuttings with my teacher and friends in the club. When I was ten, I joined the paper cutting club. Every Monday and Friday, I learned to make paper cuttings there. Our teacher, Ms. Li, was very talented. With a pair of scissors and a piece of paper, she could create lively works (作品). That amazed us. And we learned much from her. Together, we created lots of works. They covered many topics, including animals, flowers and things about Chinese history. Every time we held a paper cutting show, our works attracted many visitors. The girl in the news encouraged me to go on with paper cutting. I want to be an inheritor (继承者) of the ancient Chinese culture. Together with other inheritors, I hope to pass down our excellent culture.
8. What did the girl do after the team began to beat drums and gongs for her?
A. She watched their show carefully. B. She did a lion dance in return.
C She cheered for the team. D. She made a paper cutting for the team.
9. The underlined word “evoked” means “ ” in Paragraph 2.
A. brought back B. took away C. cut off D. depended on
10. What is the main idea of Paragraph 3?
A. The long history of paper cutting.
B. The steps of making paper cuttings.
C. The writer’s happy times of making paper cuttings.

11. Which of the following is TRUE?

D
How would you survive without your smartphone? For many of us, it’s the device we’re most attracted to — looking at it hundreds of times a day. We depend on it to perform different tasks and to connect with our friends and family. But have we become addicted to our phones?
Certainly, the inventor of the first mobile phone, American engineer Martin Cooper, thinks we might be. In a BBC interview, he suggested people should stop scrolling (刷屏) and “get a life”. But of course, once we start scrolling or watching videos, we just can’t kick the habit. Psychologist and author Jean Twenge says, “we’re all guilty of habitually checking our phones if waiting for a text or getting really into social media then kind of, looking up and realizing that an hour has passed.” There’s even a word — a phubber — to describe a person who ignores the real people around them because they are concentrating on their phones.
But does it matter if we make the most of this technology? Possibly, because like a drug, the problem arises when it is taken away. A study from King’s College London found young people they studied couldn’t control the amount of time they spent on their phone. Such addictive behavior means that people become anxious or upset if they are refused constant access, which can cause anxiety and mental health issues.
Interestingly, another study by the London School of Economics and Political Science suggests we don’t just look at our phones because we are encouraged by a text or e-mail. The people they studied felt natural to interact with their phones, just as a smoker would light a cigarette. Prof. Saadi Lahlou, co-author of the study, told the BBC, “We must learn tricks to avoid the temptation (诱惑) when we want to concentrate or have good social relations.”
One solution could be an app that rewards students for time spent away from their phones. Another choice is changing your smartphone to an ordinary phone that has none of the distractions (分心事) on it. But mainly perhaps we just need to look up more and reconnect with the real world.
12. What did Martin Cooper suggest people do?
A. Learn tricks to avoid the temptation. B. Enjoy life by stopping the habit of scrolling (刷屏).
C. Change their smartphones to ordinary phones. D. Use an app that rewards them for less phone use.
13. Why do people feel ashamed after checking their phones?
A. For not being productive enough. B. For missing important texts or calls.
C. For using their phones for a long time. D. For not being able to connect with others.
14. What does the study from King’s College London imply?
A. The young shouldn’t use their phones. B. Using phones leads the young to be anxious.
C. Curing phone addiction is not an easy job. D. Young people can’t survive without phones.
15. What is the main message of the text?
A. Smartphones are essential (极重要的) for modern life.
B. Smartphones have a certain impact (影响) on mental health.
C. The inventor of the mobile phone should be punished (处罚) .
D. People should avoid their addiction (上瘾) to smart phones.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
The continuous knock on the door brought me quickly from my kitchen. I hurried to answer.
We had just moved into the neighbourhood and I couldn’t imagine who it would be. Opening the door, I saw an old man dressed in dirty clothing. From his hand hung a torn plastic (塑料制的) bag.
“Can I help you?” I asked, hoping he had the wrong address.
“Would you like to buy some fresh garden vegetables?” he said.
“Are they from your garden?” Looking inside his bag, I saw mostly dirt, with several carrots.
“Yes.” His voice was soft. “And I can get some apples from a tree in my yard. Would you like some of those too?”
My heart softened, and I wondered if he really needed the bit of money he was asking for his produce.
I asked him in. “Please step inside and I’ll get my wallet.”
The next day, he knocked at our door again. This time, my little four-year-old Heidi got there first. “Oh, hello. Would you like to come in for tea?”
Without hesitating the old man stepped inside and held out a broken basket with several apples resting at the bottom.
“You might like to make a pie,” he said.
There was no mistaking the wistful (渴望的) look in his eye.
We sat at the kitchen table and drank our tea. Great excitement at hosting a visitor was obvious in my three children’s never-ending stream of questions. “What is your name? Where do you live? Why are your clothes so dirty?”
The homeless-looking man laughed as he answered each question. His name was Mr. Locket and he lived around the corner. His wife had passed away several years before, and his children lived far away. He was lonely. His need for companionship ( 交往) had sent him door to door under the ruse (计策) of selling fruit and vegetables. Ours was the only door opened to him that day.
Finally, the cookies were gone and he rose to his feet. On his way to the door, he turned and offered us a cheerful smile and a wave goodbye. He had promised to return tomorrow, and I knew what I wanted to do.
注意:1. 续写词数应为150左右;2. 请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
The next day, the children excitedly waited for his visit.

The next day, we found a basket sitting on the step.
