I started my practice from sleep disorders, and soon came to realize how strongly loneliness was linked with poor sleep. I’ve focused on my skills and understanding of loneliness in order to know how I could best serve my patients. Loneliness is an emotion. We probably all experience it at some point, but loneliness is very complicated and unique to each of us. There’s a big difference between loneliness and solitude (独处). Being alone is a choice, while feeling lonely isn’t something we force ourselves. You want to be around people, but something is making you feel unwanted or empty, so you’re not having the meaningful connection you seek. When you’re feeling lonely over a long period of time, it becomes a chronic (慢性的) problem. It can finally turn into a mental and physical health problem, and can be a symptom or cause of depression. It can affect self-respect. You might turn to food and not feel like exercising, as chronic loneliness is linked to increased risk of high blood pressure, obesity and even dementia (痴呆). To manage loneliness, you need to accept it. Loneliness is one of the most common feelings people have. Don’t brush it under the carpet, as that doesn’t help solve the problem. Seek joy in little things, like smelling a flower or a walk in nature. Celebrate each small achievement. When you decide to change things and seek a connection in with others, consider ale-minded group. A patient of mine joined a sewing group and it was very successful. The best way to help somebody who is lonely is to sensitively ask how they are and what they’re doing, and listen to the answer in a non-judgmental way. If you want to invite them to do something with you, do it. If they say no, don’t be discouraged from asking again. They might need time before feeling ready to say yes. 4. Why does the author focus on loneliness? A. To do research on patients’ sleep disorders. B. To find out the true reason for loneliness. C. To provide better service for patients. D. To help poor sleepers gain a better sleep. 5. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4? A. Accepting loneliness is the only cure. B. Hiding loneliness turns out to be unwise. C. Joining a sewing group proves successful. D. Meeting people with common interests won’t help. 6. If you want to help your friend Tom who is lonely, what will you do? A. Invite him later again though he has refused. B. Leave him alone for fear of disturbing him. C. Tell him right from wrong after listening to him carefully. D. Ask about his conditions publicly when noticing him in a bad mood. 7. What do we know about loneliness according to the text? A. Loneliness is a choice that people can choose by themselves. B. Loneliness is a factor that can influence your self-reflection. C. Loneliness is a serious problem that can cause dementia directly. D. Loneliness is a complicated emotion that people may all experience. 【答案】4. C 5. B 6. A 7.

I started my practice from sleep disorders, and soon came to realize how strongly loneliness was linked with poor sleep. I’ve focused on my skills and understanding of loneliness in order to know how I could best serve my patients.”（我是认知行为治疗师。我从睡眠障碍开始行医，很快就意识到孤独与睡眠质量差有多么密切的联系。我一直专注于我的技能和对孤独的理解，以便知道我如何才能最好地服务我的病人。）可知，作者关注孤独是因为想为患者提供更好的服务。故选C项。 【5题详解】推理判断题。根据第四段“To manage loneliness, you need to accept it.

If they say no, don’t be discouraged from asking again. They might need time before feeling ready to say yes.”（如果你想邀请他们和你一起做什么，就去做吧。如果他们说不，不要气馁，不要再问了。他们可能需要一些时间才能同意。）可推知，如果你想帮助你孤独的朋友汤姆，虽然他拒绝了，但你可以以后再邀请他。 【7题详解】细节理解题。根据第二段中“Loneliness is an emotion. We probably all experience it at some point, but loneliness is very complicated and unique to each of us.”（孤独是一种情感。我们可能在某些时候都经历过，但孤独对我们每个人来说都是非常复杂和独特的。）可知，根据文章，我们知道孤独是一种复杂的情感，每个人都可能经历。故选D项。 C After years of efforts, China’s space station has been fully operational. Over the past 19 years, from China’s first manned space mission Shenzhou V to the latest Shenzhou XV launch, the nation’s space projects have progressed from a single-astronaut mission to the long-term stay of several astronauts in space, and the length of time the astronauts stay in space has expanded from just 23 hours to six months. After the Shenzhou XV spacecraft docked (对接) with the Tiangong space station, the three astronauts handed it over to the three new arrivals before returning to Earth. During the week-long transition (过渡) period there were six astronauts living in the space station. That’s really a huge step forward. Actually, China’s space progress has been advancing.

Besides, requests have been received from several countries to send astronauts to take part in the space station experiments, and China is coordinating (协调) with them and actively preparing for the training of foreign astronauts. The International Space Station has conducted over 3,000 experiments during its time in service, and the Chinese space station won’t waste a minute in this regard. As the only space station after the ISS is retired, it will continue to expand human’s understanding of space. That is worth looking forward to. 8. What can we know from Paragraph 2? A. Shenzhou V could only take one astronaut to space. B. Shenzhou V is China’s first man-made spacecraft. C. Shenzhou XV is China’s first space station. D.

So they went upstairs and set the bag of money on the table. The king counted it out in front of everyone. Then he pointed to the girls and said, “These poor little lambs. They’ve suffered so much. I know what my brother would want me to do.” He turned to the duke and made those hand signs. The duke watched for a minute, then his eyes brightened up like he’d finally caught on. He gave the king a big smile. The king said, “Here, MaryJane, Susan, and Joanna. Take the money. Take it all.” The three girls started hugging him again. But the town doctor who’d stood watching the whole time, stuck his finger in the king’s face. “You can’t fool me!” he hollered. “You are just a fraud!” My heart thumped like a rabbit and I thought we were caught for sure! The king stood there, looking gap-jawed at the doctor. The doctor kept on yelling. “You claim you’re an Englishman, but that’s the worst English accent I’ve ever heard! You are nothing but a swindler.” The crowd gathered around the doctor, trying to quiet him down. “No,” one man argued. “It’s really Harvey Wilks.” “Yeah,” another agreed. “He knew everybody’s name. He even knew all our dogs’ names.” “I’m telling you,” the doctor warned. “Anyone who can’t imitate an accent better than that is a fraud.” The Willks girls hung their heads and cried. That’s when the doctor turned to them and said “I was your father’s friend. I only want to protect you and keep you out of trouble. He’s an imposter who’s come here with a lot of names and facts that he picked up somewhere else. Won’t you please turn this rascal out?” MaryJane straightened up, looking proud. “Here is my answer to that.” She picked up the bag of money and put it right in the king’s hands. “Here,” she said. “Take the whole $6,000 and invest it for me and my sisters.” Then she put her arm around the king on one side, and the other girls did the same on the other. Everyone clapped and stomped while the king held his head high. The doctor pointed his finger at them. “Fine. But remember, I warned you.” After supper I started wondering what I ought to do. Should I go to that doctor and tell him the truth? I couldn’t do that. The king and the duke might find out it was me, and they’d have my hide for sure. I knew MaryJane wouldn’t believe me. 12. What did the duke learn from those hand signs made by the king? A. The king wanted the duke to count the money out. B. The king was happy to share money with the three girls. C. The king would pretend to give the money back to the girls. D. The king asked the duke to hide the money and shared it together. 13. How did Huckleberry feel when the doctor doubted the king? A.

He gave the king a big smile.”（他转向公爵，做了那些手势。公爵看了一会儿，然后他的眼睛明亮起来，好像他终于明白了。他给国王一个灿烂的微笑。）以及第五段“You can’t fool me! ” he hollered. “You are just a fraud!””（“你骗不了我！”他喊道。“你就是个骗子！”）医生说国王是骗子可推知，公爵从国王做的手势中了解到国王会假装把钱还给女孩们。故选C项。 【13题详解】细节理解题。根据第六段“My heart thumped like a rabbit and I thought we were caught for sure!”（我的心像兔子一样狂跳，我想我们肯定被抓住了！）以及第七段“The king stood there, looking gap-jawed at the doctor. The doctor kept on yelling. “You claim you’re an Englishman, but that’s the worst English accent I’ve ever heard! You are nothing but a swindler.””（国王站在那里，目瞪口呆地看着医生。医生不停地喊叫。“你说你是英国人，但那是我听过的最糟糕的英国口音!”你就是个骗子。”）可知，当医生怀疑国王时，哈克贝利感到很紧张。故选A项。 【14题详解】词句猜测题。根据第七段中“You claim you’re an Englishman, but that’s the worst English accent I’ve ever heard!”（你说你是英国人，但那是我听过的最糟糕的英国口音！）以及第十段中的“Anyone who can’t imitate an accent better than that is a fraud.”（任何不能imitate比这更好口音的人，那就是骗子。）故可猜测，医生说此人英国口音说得很糟糕，划线单词imitate为“模仿”的意思，结合选项B项Copy“模仿”意思一致。 【15题详解】推理判断题。根据最后一段“After supper I started wondering what I ought to do. Should I go to that doctor and tell him the truth? I couldn’t do that. The king and the duke might find out it was me, and they’d have my hide for sure. I knew MaryJane wouldn’t believe me.”（晚饭后，我开始考虑我该做些什么。我应该去找那个医生，告诉他真相吗？我不能那样做。国王和公爵可能会发现是我，他们肯定会把我的皮都剥了。我知道玛丽·简不会相信我。）可知，我们能从文章中推断出哈克贝利急于告诉玛丽·简真相，但他没有。 二、写作 应用文写作（满分15） 假定你是李华，应约为某英文网站写一则新闻报道，报道你校今天刚结束的中文诗词大赛(Chinese Poetry Contest)。 内容包括： 1. 活动目的 2. 活动形式 3. 活动反响 注意：1.词数：80左右； 2. 可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯。 A Chinese Poetry Contest was successfully held in our school today.

I started my practice from sleep disorders, and soon came to realize how strongly loneliness was linked with poor sleep. I’ve focused on my skills and understanding of loneliness in order to know how I could best serve my patients. Loneliness is an emotion. We probably all experience it at some point, but loneliness is very complicated and unique to each of us. There’s a big difference between loneliness and solitude (独处). Being alone is a choice, while feeling lonely isn’t something we force ourselves. You want to be around people, but something is making you feel unwanted or empty, so you’re not having the meaningful connection you seek. When you’re feeling lonely over a long period of time, it becomes a chronic (慢性的) problem. It can finally turn into a mental and physical health problem, and can be a symptom or cause of depression. It can affect self-respect. You might turn to food and not feel like exercising, as chronic loneliness is linked to increased risk of high blood pressure, obesity and even dementia (痴呆). To manage loneliness, you need to accept it. Loneliness is one of the most common feelings people have. Don’t brush it under the carpet, as that doesn’t help solve the problem. Seek joy in little things, like smelling a flower or a walk in nature. Celebrate each small achievement. When you decide to change things and seek a connection in with others, consider ale-minded group. A patient of mine joined a sewing group and it was very successful. The best way to help somebody who is lonely is to sensitively ask how they are and what they’re doing, and listen to the answer in a non-judgmental way. If you want to invite them to do something with you, do it. If they say no, don’t be discouraged from asking again. They might need time before feeling ready to say yes. 4. Why does the author focus on loneliness? A. To do research on patients’ sleep disorders. B. To find out the true reason for loneliness. C. To provide better service for patients. D. To help poor sleepers gain a better sleep. 5. What can be inferred from Paragraph 4? A. Accepting loneliness is the only cure. B. Hiding loneliness turns out to be unwise. C. Joining a sewing group proves successful. D. Meeting people with common interests won’t help. 6. If you want to help your friend Tom who is lonely, what will you do? A. Invite him later again though he has refused. B. Leave him alone for fear of disturbing him. C. Tell him right from wrong after listening to him carefully. D. Ask about his conditions publicly when noticing him in a bad mood. 7. What do we know about loneliness according to the text? A. Loneliness is a choice that people can choose by themselves. B. Loneliness is a factor that can influence your self-reflection. C. Loneliness is a serious problem that can cause dementia directly. D. Loneliness is a complicated emotion that people may all experience. C After years of efforts, China’s space station has been fully operational. Over the past 19 years, from China’s first manned space mission Shenzhou V to the latest Shenzhou XV launch, the nation’s space projects have progressed from a single-astronaut mission to the long-term stay of several astronauts in space, and the length of time the astronauts stay in space has expanded from just 23 hours to six months. After the Shenzhou XV spacecraft docked (对接) with the Tiangong space station, the three astronauts handed it over to the three new arrivals before returning to Earth. During the week-long transition (过渡) period there were six astronauts living in the space station. That’s really a huge step forward. Actually, China’s space progress has been advancing. It took eight years to go from Shenzhou V to the Tiangong I space lab, and five years from Tiangong I to the more advanced spacelab Tian gong II. With the arrival of the Shenzhou XV spacecraft and it screw (全体工作人员) , the Chinese space station is opening a new chapter for China’s space program, as the astronauts will conduct a series of scientific experiments in space. More than 40 space science and technology experiments will be conducted by the Shenzhou XV astronauts. And with more scientific research equipment to be sent to the space station, it will be equal to having a world-class university laboratory in space. Besides, requests have been received from several countries to send astronauts to take part in the space station experiments, and China is coordinating (协调) with them and actively preparing for the training of foreign astronauts. The International Space Station has conducted over 3,000 experiments during its time in service, and the Chinese space station won’t waste a minute in this regard. As the only space station after the ISS is retired, it will continue to expand human’s understanding of space. That is worth looking forward to. 8. What can we know from Paragraph 2? A. Shenzhou V could only take one astronaut to space. B. Shenzhou V is China’s first man-made spacecraft. C. Shenzhou XV is China’s first space station. D. Shenzhou XV stayed in space for just 23 hours. 9. What will happen after the arrival of the Shenzhou XV and it screw? A. An advanced university laboratory will be sent to Tiangong. B.

The king counted it out in front of everyone. Then he pointed to the girls and said, “These poor little lambs. They’ve suffered so much. I know what my brother would want me to do.” He turned to the duke and made those hand signs. The duke watched for a minute, then his eyes brightened up like he’d finally caught on. He gave the king a big smile. The king said, “Here, MaryJane, Susan, and Joanna. Take the money. Take it all.” The three girls started hugging him again. But the town doctor who’d stood watching the whole time, stuck his finger in the king’s face. “You can’t fool me!” he hollered. “You are just a fraud!” My heart thumped like a rabbit and I thought we were caught for sure! The king stood there, looking gap-jawed at the doctor. The doctor kept on yelling. “You claim you’re an Englishman, but that’s the worst English accent I’ve ever heard! You are nothing but a swindler.” The crowd gathered around the doctor, trying to quiet him down. “No,” one man argued. “It’s really Harvey Wilks.” “Yeah,” another agreed. “He knew everybody’s name. He even knew all our dogs’ names.” “I’m telling you,” the doctor warned. “Anyone who can’t imitate an accent better than that is a fraud.” The Willks girls hung their heads and cried. That’s when the doctor turned to them and said “I was your father’s friend. I only want to protect you and keep you out of trouble. He’s an imposter who’s come here with a lot of names and facts that he picked up somewhere else. Won’t you please turn this rascal out?” MaryJane straightened up, looking proud. “Here is my answer to that.” She picked up the bag of money and put it right in the king’s hands. “Here,” she said. “Take the whole $6,000 and invest it for me and my sisters.” Then she put her arm around the king on one side, and the other girls did the same on the other. Everyone clapped and stomped while the king held his head high. The doctor pointed his finger at them. “Fine. But remember, I warned you.” After supper I started wondering what I ought to do. Should I go to that doctor and tell him the truth? I couldn’t do that. The king and the duke might find out it was me, and they’d have my hide for sure. I knew MaryJane wouldn’t believe me. 12.
