I wanted to teach some life lessons to help them live happily. However, it was a ____13____ who taught me a valuable life lesson. I was feeling stressed and burned out that day, as I had felt on most days of that school year. One of my classes was very challenging, and I was ____14____ of trying to encourage a group of students who seemingly did not care about school. Near the end of my class, I was ____15____ graded essays to my students. After Jill got hers, she read my comments (评语), checked the grade, smiled up at me, and said, “This will be one of my three good things for today.” I had not heard that ____16____ before, so I asked her, “What does that mean?” She explained, “Every night before I go to sleep, I think of three good things that happened that day. A good thing doesn’t have to be something big or important. It can be a kind word from a friend or a good meal.” “Thank you for sharing that with me,” I said. “That sounds like a really good habit that encourages you to find good in life every day.” Honestly, I was a little ashamed. A sixteen-year-old student had just taught me a life lesson that I really ____17____, as I had seen only the problems in my life. That night I started to ____18____ the “three good things” habit, and was amazed at how easily I could recall three wonderful things from the day—the discussion I had with my students about a book, the beautiful rainbow I saw, and the evening walk at the park. Focusing on those things was much better than replaying the unpleasant things during the day. During the next few days, I felt a renewed sense of hope. I was always looking forward to ____19____ my “three good things”. Throughout the years, I have continued to work on being ____20____ and thankful, although life has thrown challenges and difficulties at me. 13. A. friend B. student C. teacher D. parent 14.

Mike always gets excited at the idea of exploring a desert. Laura is looking for a water activity to do with the exchange students from Italy. As for Bob, he plans to watch the wild animals. ___21___ Mike ___22___ Laura ___23___ Bob A. Alaskan Sightseeing Tour B. Red Rock Canyon Bike Tour C. Snorkeling in Silfra D. Morning Volcano Hike B Henry started a business with great enthusiasm (热情), but just after few months, his business failed and went under. After that, Henry stayed out of work for quite some time. When his teacher Roy got to know that, he invited Henry to his home. Roy welcomed him and then asked, “Why don’t you try some other work?” Henry replied, “I started a business. I worked so hard and I gave my everything to it, yet that business failed.” Roy comforted him, saying, “But that’s life, sometimes we get success and sometimes we don’t. This doesn’t mean we should stop working.” “What’s the point of doing work when I can’t be sure of success?” Henry replied impatiently Roy took Henry to a room and showed him a dead tomato plant. Henry said, “It’s dead and useless.” Roy replied, “When I sowed (播种) its seed, I did everything right for it. I watered it, and took great care of it but it still died.” Roy continued, “Doing work is the same. No matter how hard you try, you cannot decide what happens in the end. You can control only those things which are in your hands.” Henry asked, “But if there is no guarantee (确保) of success, then what’s the use of trying doing anything?” Roy said, “Well, if you stop trying, you’re not going to do anything big in your life.” “But if success is only a matter of chance, then what is the use of doing so much hard work and putting in so much money and time?” questioned Henry as he was about to leave. Just then, Roy said, “Before you leave, I want to show you one more thing.” He took Henry to another room. There was a pile of big red tomatoes lying there. Henry just couldn’t get the point and asked, “Why are you showing me this?” Roy said, “These tomatoes you see are result of not giving up on growing plants even after failing before. I didn’t stop after seeing those dead plants. Instead, I sowed seeds again and took care of them. This time the plants grew. Similarly, if you keep trying continuously, your chances of getting success are greatly increased. But if you give up because of failures, then life does not give you any reward (回报).” Henry finally learnt the lesson of success. He understood what he had to do and left with renewed energy. 24. Why did Roy show Henry a dead tomato plant at first? A. To show he made the same mistake as Henry. B. To ask Henry to offer him some advice and help. C. To tell Henry things don’t always go the way as planned. D. To advise Henry to predict what will happen in the future. 25. How did Henry feel the moment Roy showed him the big red tomatoes in another room? A. Excited. B. Confused. C. Awful. D. Hopeful. 26. What lesson did Henry learn in the end? A. Energy and care are keys to avoiding failures. B. Failure can be a step towards success in our life. C. We can get the expected results if we don’t give up. D. Success will be guaranteed as long as we work hard. C Do you consider yourself a creative person? If you answered “sadly, no”, you needn’t worry! This article will change your opinion on creativity and teach you how to be creative in everyday life. Many people believe that creativity is a special talent that only a few lucky people are born with. But it’s actually a skill that everyone can learn and improve through practice. Some people think, “Creativity is not so important to me since I’m not an artist.” However, creativity is more than just artistic expression. It’s connected to everyday activities and influences the way we live, work, and communicate in our relationships. So what’s in it for you in learning to be creative in everyday life? Creativity is a powerful tool for problem-solving. When facing a challenge, creativity encourages us to explore unusual solutions. Research shows that developing creativity can improve mental health. Whether it’s drawing, playing music, or even cooking a new dish, creative activities help reduce stress, increase self-confidence, and give you a sense of achievement. Creativity is also good for personal growth. When we push ourselves to be creative, we learn more about ourselves, our interests, and our abilities. Then how can you be creative in everyday life? First, stay curious and pay attention to the world around you. This can lead to new discoveries. For example, you can take photos of objects or views that amaze, move, or interest you from your daily life. Second, step out of your comfort zone (舒适区) and try new things. If you are not a “writer”, try writing a poem or a very short story. If you are not good at handwork, attend a woodworking or pottery workshop. Third, cooperate with people. You can often develop creativity in a cooperative environment, such as in community groups or local clubs. You may feel unskilled or silly at the beginning of your creative efforts. Don’t worry! Everyday creativity is about free self-expression and doesn’t have to be anything perfect, so stay playful and enjoy the process (过程). Creativity is as important to humans as eating healthy meals or getting exercise. It can enrich our daily experiences and help us solve problems more effectively. So, pick your favourite creative activity and make time for it today! 27. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about? A. Benefits of everyday creativity. B. Suggestions on creative activities. C. Opinions about what creativity is. D. Challenges in developing creativity. 28. Which activity is best for developing creativity? A. Copying a poem by a famous poet. B. Writing in the way you are good at. C. Exploring a new hobby like robotics. D. Practicing swimming every weekend. 29. What can we learn from the passage? A. Creativity mostly depends on natural ability. B. It’s easier to develop creativity when working alone. C. It’s hard for people to solve problems in a creative way. D. Everyday creativity is more of enjoyment than of achievement. D Are you a good judge or just judgmental? In our daily life, exercising good judgment is necessary, but being judgmental isn’t. Judgment is a natural part of decision-making. You see a line of cars during morning rush hour and judge that there will not be enough time to stop for coffee. However, exercising judgment can possibly move into being judgmental. Judgmental people make far-reaching pronouncement based on limited information. We all know such people. “Anyone who is rich is surely a good businessman!” “Hip-hop fans don’t know the first thing about music!” None of us can help forming opinions of other people. So how does judgmental thinking differ from making judgments? Judgmental people state their views in authoritative (专断的) terms; they judge what is right and wrong, what should and should not be, what is good or bad. Making a simple judgment, however, does not carry these ominous overtones. “Billy has bad table manners” is a judgment. A judgmental person would add something such as “Therefore, he was raised by a poor family!” Most people realize that being judgmental is an unattractive quality. If you look around, you’ll find that most judgmental people are disliked and avoided. Also, just as we can form wrong opinions of others, being judgmental can lead us to feel negative about ourselves. When we stop being judgmental, we often discover a higher level of personal happiness. Why are we judgmental sometimes? One possible explanation for our judgmental nature is that we feel unsure about ourselves. By putting others down or pointing out their problems, we may feel a sense of superiority (优越). However, this mindset holds back our personal growth in the long run and prevents us from forming meaningful connections with others. Another reason for judgmental behavior is societal conditioning. We are continually flooded with media messages that set unrealistic standards of beauty, success, and happiness. As a result, we may accept these perfect ideas and project them onto others, leading to unkind judgments based on surface-level standards instead of true understanding. In order to overcome our judgmental tendencies (趋势), it’s important to practice empathy (同理心) and open-mindedness. This involves actively trying to understand others’ viewpoints and experiences without jumping to conclusions or making quick judgments. By accepting differences and the idea that everyone is on their own journey, we can develop empathy and acceptance for ourselves and those around us. None of us are perfect. We all have room for growth and improvement. Let’s be kinder and more understanding people who raise up rather than tear down others. 30. According to the passage, which of the following is a good judgment? A “She has got a big kitchen so she cooks well.” B. “People who dress well work in famous companies.” C. “It’s snowing heavily so we can build a big snowman.” D. “His good table manners show he was born in a rich family.” 31. What do the words “ominous overtones” in Paragraph 3 most probably mean? A. Unpredictable information. B. Unnecessary consideration. C. Unreasonable requirements. D. Unpleasant suggestion. 32. Which of the following would the writer most probably agree with? A. People’s judgmental nature results in their true understanding. B. People who have impractical standards may act judgmentally. C. Exercising judgment more often can help people avoid being judgmental. D. Judgmental thinking makes people develop relationships with others. 33. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage? A. To stress the importance of being kind to ourselves. B. To encourage us to form connections with other people. C. To remind us to stay positive when we exercise judgment. D. To make us aware that we should kick our judgmental habits. 四、任务型阅读（34-36每题2分，37题4分） 阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。 The Power of Hope Have you noticed the mornings are slowly getting lighter? Being hopeful that spring is around the corner and warmer, brighter days are ahead is a powerful feeling. This is because hope gives us the strength to be positive, even when things don’t go our way. Hope is a positive feeling that things will get better. It’s more than just wishful thinking; hope means taking action and believing you have the power to achieve your goals. “When I’m hopeful, it makes me see the brightness in myself,” says Jonah, aged eight, “It’s good to be hopeful because it gives you a chance to be happy about things.” Charles Snyder, a psychologist (an expert in how we think) studied hopeful thinking and said it has three main parts: having a goal, thinking up different ways to achieve it and believing in yourself even when things go wrong. Snyder called hope a “rainbow of the mind,” because it “lifts our spirits and makes us think of what is possible.” Being hopeful about something, like trying out a new sport or hobby, takes courage because you’re taking a step into the unknown. This helps you work out what’s important to you, as well as making you more confident. Studies show that being hopeful also helps you learn better at school, build strong friendships and feel less stressed. Hope is a skill you can learn. Hope expert David Feldman suggests starting by working towards a goal that’s important to you, then thinking up different ways to achieve it. So if you hope to be a chef one day, for example, aim to learn one new recipe a week. Staying focused on your goal takes energy, so eat healthily and get plenty of sleep. If you start to feel hopeless, get inspired by people who have already succeeded or tell someone who supports you so they can help you improve. Finally, make use of your imagination and picture yourself achieving your goal. Picturing success in the future is hope in action. 34. How many main parts does hopeful thinking have? __________________________________________________________ 35. Why was hope called a “rainbow of the mind”? __________________________________________________________ 36. How do you get enough energy to stay focused on your goal? __________________________________________________________ 37. Who do you think is always positive around you? Why?
