I clearly remember my first day of high school. As I entered the school gate, I was greeted by a crowd of students. The hallways were filled with talking and laughter. It was a lot to handle, and I felt like a tiny fish in a vast ocean. I held my schedule tightly, trying to find the right classroom. My heart raced as I was scared of getting lost. My first class was English, and as I walked in, I spotted familiar faces from my previous school. I breathed a sigh of relief as I took my seat, surrounded by friendly smiles. My English teacher, Mrs Johnson, introduced herself and made everyone feel comfortable. She explained what we would be studying during the semester and encouraged us to share our thoughts and ideas. The next class was math, which happened to be my weakest subject. I had a tight feeling in my stomach as I entered the classroom, but my math teacher, Mr Smith, turned out to be very patient. He promised us that we would learn and improve together. His words of support made me feel more relaxed, and I began to believe that I could overcome my math struggles. During lunchtime, I sat with a group of students who quickly became my friends. We shared stories and talked about our expectations for high school. It was during this time that I realized that high school wasn’t just about academic subjects; it was also about building friendships and making lasting memories. The rest of the day flew by with a variety of classes, faces, and experiences. My first day of high school was filled with moments of anxiety, joy, and the promise of new beginnings. 4. Why did the author feel like a tiny fish in a vast ocean at first? A. Because of excitement and curiosity. B. Because of the school’s welcoming atmosphere. C. Because of good preparations for the new school. D. Because of fear of the unfamiliar environment. 5. Which words can best describe the English teacher? A. Generous and powerful. B. Responsible and patient. C. Inspiring and friendly. D. Outgoing and warm-hearted. 6. How did the author feel when entering the math class? A. Anxious. B. Excited. C. Relaxed. D. Confident. 7. What did the author learn from the first day of high school? A. High school is only about studying hard. B. Making friends is more important than studying. C. High school life is much easier than expected. D. High school is about both study and friendship-building. C In case you are considering starting a journey, there are a few simple rules about how to make life easier both before and after your journey. First of all, always check and double-check departure (出发) time. It is surprising how few people really do this carefully. Once I arrived at the airport a few minutes after ten. My secretary had got the ticket for me and I thought she had said that the plane left at 10:50, but the person at the departure desk told me that my flight was closed. Therefore, I had to wait three hours for the next one and missed an important meeting. The second rule is to remember that even in this age of credit cards, it is still important to have some local money in cash (现金). Once I arrived at a place at midnight and the bank at the airport was closed. The only way to get to my hotel was by taxi but because I had no dollars, I offered to pay in pounds instead. “Listen! I only take real money!” the driver said angrily. You can imagine how terrible I felt at that moment. The third and the last rule is to find out as much as you can about the weather at your destination before you leave. I feel sorry for some of my workmates who traveled in heavy suits and raincoats in May, when it is still fairly cool in London or Manchester, to places like Athens, Rome or Madrid, where it is already beginning to get quite warm during the day. 8. Where is the author most probably from? A. Britain. B. The USA. C. Italy. D. Greece. 9. What did the author do when he found he had no dollars to pay the taxi driver? A. He tried to pay by credit card. B. He offered to pay in pounds. C. He waited for the bank to open with the driver. D. He asked the driver to give him a free ride. 10. What’s the weather in London generally like in May? A. Warm and dry. B. Cold and dry. C. Hot and wet. D. Cool and rainy. 11. What’s the text mainly about? A. How to make life easier. B. How to ensure safety during your trip. C. How to be well prepared for a trip. D. How to enjoy ourselves on a trip. D Studies have found that having lots of friends helps us feel happier. But sometimes we stop talking to friends we used to be close with. Scientists did seven studies with about 2,500 people. They wanted to know how people feel about getting back in touch with friends they haven’t talked to in a while. They looked at the problems and reasons for reconnecting and if there were ways to help people send a message to old friend. To see how willing people were to reconnect, the scientists asked them how ready they were to do different things right away. This included calling or texting a friend they hadn’t talked to in a long time. The results showed that people were not very excited about reaching out to an old friend, just like they don’t want to talk to someone new or pick up trash. People were worried that their old friends might not want to hear from them. It might be weird to reconnect after so long, and they felt bad. They thought both they and their old friends were too busy to talk again. People thought there were only a few good reasons to get in touch, like saying happy birthday to a friend. Talking about a memory they shared was the second reason. They didn’t like the idea of asking an old friend for help. A scientist said that even though people were warned about how an old friend would react to their message, the help they offered to ease this worry didn’t really work well. The scientist added that we know from many years of research that friends make us happy and give our lives meaning. These research findings will encourage people to send a message to someone they miss. It will be the first step to establish contact with friends they have not communicated with for a long period. 12. What is the main focus of the scientists’ research? A. The benefits of maintaining friendships. B. The process of forming new friendships. C. The feelings about reconnecting with old friendships. D. The reasons for losing contact with long-lost friends. 13. What did the scientists find out about people’s willingness to reconnect with old friends? A. Most people wanted to reconnect. B. People were not sure about contacting old friends. C. People liked to ask old friends for help. D. Being busy was the main reason for not making contact. 14. What does the underlined word “weird” mean in paragraph 4? A. Strange. B. Interesting. C. Fashionable. D. Fresh. 15. What was found to help people contact old friends? A. Sending a message to ask for a favor. B. Focusing on the guilt of not reaching out. C. Expressing concerns over the message reception. D. Practicing social connection with current friends first. 第二节 (共5小题；每小题2.5分，满分12.5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。 How Well Do You Know Yourself?
