In fact, they’re very different. Joy is an emotion that occurs within us when we develop an appreciation or thankfulness for the contents of life, such as nature, ____16____ (free), relationships with people, or through having faith in something ____17____ (large) than ourselves. Happiness is an emotion that is aroused in us when we buy a new car or get a promotion at work. It depends on our circumstances satisfying our desires. 【答案】15. are understood 16. freedom 17. larger 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇说明文，介绍了快乐和幸福的区别。 【15题详解】 考查动词时态和语态。句意：通常，快乐和幸福被理解为同一件事。分析句子可知，空处缺少句子的谓语，joy and happiness为两个主语，与understand构成逻辑上的被动关系，且根据Usually及句意可知，本句用一般现在时的被动语态。故填：are understood。 【16题详解】 考查名词。句意：当我们对生活的内容（如自然、自由、人际关系）心存感激或对比我们自身更大的事物有信心时，快乐就会在我们内心产生。分析句子可知，空处与nature，relationships并列，用名词。free对应的名词为freedom，此处为不可数名词。故填：freedom。 【17题详解】 考查形容词比较级。句意同上。分析空处可知，修饰不定代词something，放在其后用形容词，且根据空后的than可知，此处用large的比较级larger。故填：larger。 C 阅读下列短文，根据短文内容填空。在未给提示词的空白处仅填写1个适当的单词，在给出提示词的空白处用括号内所给词的正确形式填空。 Your personality shapes you. Personality is the characteristic patterns of thoughts, feelings and behaviors ____18____ make a person unique. Understanding personality allows us ____19____ (predict) how people will respond to certain situations and what they prefer and value. For example, an outgoing person may jump for joy when facing new experiences, while a shy person may feel ____20____ (embarrass) in front of a large group of people. 【答案】18. which##that 19. to predict 20. embarrassed 【解析】 【分析】本文是一篇说明文，主要讲的是什么是人格和理解人格的作用。 【18题详解】 考查定语从句的引导词。句意：人格是使一个人独一无二的思想、情感和行为的特征模式。分析句子结构可知，空格处引导定语从句，从句中缺少主语，先行词patterns是物，因此空格处用关系代词which/that，故填which/that。 【19题详解】 考查不定式和固定短语。句意：理解人格可以让我们预测人们对特定情况的反应，以及他们的喜好和价值。allow sb. to do sth.是固定短语，意为“允许某人做某事”，因此空格处是不定式to predict，故填to predict。 【20题详解】 考查形容词。句意：例如，一个外向的人在面对新的经历时可能会高兴得跳起来，而一个害羞的人可能会在一大群人面前感到尴尬。feel后跟形容词作表语，修饰person用ed形容词，即embarrassed，意为“感到尴尬的”，故填embarrassed。 第三部分：阅读理解(共两节，32分) 第一节(共11小题；每小题2分，共22分) 阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中，选出最佳选项，并在答题卡上将该项涂黑。 A Paragliding is a kind of flying, but instead of the wing being made of metal, wood or plastic, it is made of nylon or polyester. The wing is attached to a harness by lines where a pilot sits, similar to a parachute. Is it safe? Paragliding, is as safe as sailing and deep-sea diving. The big advantage is that it’s probably the slowest form of aviation, so if you do crash, you'll hit the ground quite gently! It’s a very relaxing sport as you're mostly sitting down. Yet, you’ll probably experience pain in some muscles you didn’t know you had while learning, but many of those will be due to the walk up the training hill to launch. Where do I learn? There are lots of schools, mainly based inland by appropriate hills or mountains, and there are also schools on the coast near spectacular cliffs. These are very attractive, though the prospect of landing in the sea seems to discourage beginners! It takes seven days to get your basic license; then you’re free to fly independently at sites across the country. What do I need? Pilots normally wear warm clothes in case they get very high up, and a helmet in case they stumble on landing. In terms of gear, schools supply basic training, canopies, harnesses, etc. However, you'll probably want to buy your own more sophisticated equipment, which you’ll be able to choose much better once you’ve tried some out on your course. Who can do it? There’s no upper age limit provided your instructor judges you capable but the youngest is 14. Anybody with good eyesight and good balance is a potential paraglider pilot. Flying a paraglider is a great sport. We hope to see you in the air with us this season! 21. Which would be the best heading for Paragraph 1? A. What is paragliding? B. Who invented paragliding? C. How is paragliding special? D. Why is paragliding popular? 22. According to the passage, paragliding is____________ . A. exciting but tiring B. safe and relaxing C. attractive but expensive D. fast and challenging 23. What can we know from the passage? A. Fit people of any age can take up paragliding. B. Most paragliding schools are situated by the sea. C. Pilots need to buy basic equipment on their training course. D. Learners can fly on their own after at least a week’s training. 【答案】21. A 22. B 23. D 【解析】 【导语】本文为一篇应用文。文章介绍了什么是滑翔伞及学习滑翔伞的一些信息。 【21题详解】 主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Paragliding is a kind of flying, but instead of the wing being made of metal, wood or plastic, it is made of nylon or polyester.The wing is attached to a harness by lines where a pilot sits, similar to a parachute.(滑翔伞是一种飞行，但它的机翼不是由金属、木材或塑料制成的，而是由尼龙或聚酯制成的。机翼通过绳索连接到安全带上，飞行员坐在那里，类似于降落伞)”可知，本段主要描述了什么是滑翔伞。故选A项。 【22题详解】 细节理解题。根据Is it safe?内容“Paragliding, is as safe as sailing and deep-sea diving.(滑翔伞，就像航海和深海潜水一样安全)”及“It’s a very relaxing sport as you’re mostly sitting down.(这是一项非常放松的运动，因为你大部分时间都是坐着的)”可知，滑翔伞是一项安全放松的运动。故选B项。 【23题详解】 细节理解题。根据Where do I learn?内容“It takes seven days to get your basic license; then you’re free to fly independently at sites across the country.(获得基本驾照需要7天时间；然后你就可以在全国各地独立飞行了)”可知，经过至少一周的训练，学习者可以独立飞行。故选D项。 B I remember the day during our first week of class when we were informed about our semester（学期） project of volunteering at a non-profit organization．When the teacher introduced us to the different organizations that needed our help，my last choice was Operation Iraqi Children （OIC）．My first impression of the organization was that it was not going to make enough of a difference with the plans I had in mind． Then，an OIC representative gave us some details，which somewhat interested me．After doing some research， I believed that we could really do something for those kids．When I went online to the OIC website，I saw pictures of the Iraqi children．Their faces were so powerful in sending a message of their despair（绝望） and need that I joined this project without hesitation．We decided to collect as many school supplies as possible，and make them into kits——one kit，one child． The most rewarding day for our group was project day，when all the efforts we put into collecting the items finally came together．When I saw the various supplies we had collected，it hit me that every kit we were to build that day would eventually be in the hands of an Iraqi child．Over the past four months，I had never imagined how I would feel once our project was completed．While making the kits，I realized that I had lost sight of the true meaning behind it．I had only focused on the fact that it was another school project and one I wanted to get a good grade on．When the kits were completed，and ready to be sent overseas，the warm feeling I had was one I would never forget． In the beginning，I dared myself to make a difference in the life of another person．Now that our project is over，I realize that I have affected not only one life，but ten．With our efforts，ten young boys and girls will now be able to further their education． 24. How did the author feel about joining the OIC project in the beginning？ A. It would affect his/her initial plans． B. It would involve traveling overseas． C.

B 【解析】 【分析】本文是记叙文。讲述了作者一开始认为加入伊拉克儿童行动项目不会达到他的期望，但是最后通过努力对自己和他人带来影响，说明第一印象不总是可信的。 【24题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“When the teacher introduced us to the different organizations that needed our help，my last choice was Operation Iraqi Children （OIC）．My first impression of the organization was that it was not going to make enough of a difference with the plans I had in mind．”（当老师向我们介绍了需要我们帮助的不同组织时，我最后的选择是伊拉克儿童行动(OIC)。我对这个组织的第一印象是，它不会对我心中的计划产生足够的影响。）可知，一开始作者认为加入伊拉克儿童行动项目不会达到他的期望。故选D。 【25题详解】 细节理解题。根据第二段“When I went online to the OIC website，I saw pictures of the Iraqi children．Their faces were so powerful in sending a message of their despair（绝望） and need that I joined this project without hesitation．”（当我上网访问OIC 网站时，我看到了伊拉克儿童的照片。他们的脸上传递的信息是绝望和需要帮助，我毫不犹豫地加入了这个项目。）可知，伊拉克儿童图片帮助作者改变了他对这个项目的态度。故选A。 【26题详解】 细节理解题。根据最后一段“Now that our project is over，I realize that I have affected not only one life，but ten．With our efforts，ten young boys and girls will now be able to further their education．”（现在我们的项目结束了，我意识到我不仅影响了一个人的生活，而且影响了十个人的生活。在我们的努力下，10名男孩和女孩现在将能够继续接受教育。）可知，作者的伊拉克儿童行动组织帮助十个伊拉克儿童继续接受教育。故选B。 【27题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“My first impression of the organization was that it was not going to make enough of a difference with the plans I had in mind．”（我对这个组织的第一印象是，它不会对我心中的计划产生足够的影响。）和最后一段“In the beginning，I dared myself to make a difference in the life of another person．Now that our project is over，I realize that I have affected not only one life，but ten．With our efforts，ten young boys and girls will now be able to further their education．”（一开始，我鼓励自己去改变另一个人的生活。现在我们的项目结束了，我意识到我不仅影响了一个人的生活，而且影响了十个人的生活。在我们的努力下，十名男孩和女孩现在将能够继续接受教育。）可知，一开始作者认为加入伊拉克儿童行动不会达到他的期望，但是最后通过努力对自己和他人带来影响，说明第一印象不总是可信的。故选B。 【点睛】 C Search “toxic parents”, and you’ll find more than 38, 000 posts, largely urging young adults to cut ties with their families. The idea is to safeguard one’s mental health from abusive parents. However, as a psychoanalyst, I’ve seen that trend in recent years become a way to manage conflicts in the family, and I have seen the severe impacts estrangement (疏远) has on both sides of the divide. This is a self-help trend that creates much harm. Research by Karl Pillemer, a professor at Cornell University, indicates that 1 in 4 American adults have become estranged from their families. I believe that’s an undercount, because others have stopped short of completely cutting off contact but have effectively broken the ties. “Canceling” your parent can be seen as an extension of a cultural trend aimed at correcting imbalances in power and systemic inequality. Certainly the family is one system in which power has never been balanced. In 1933, the psychoanalyst Sándor Ferenczi warned that even the simple indication that someone has more power than we do could potentially be damaging. Today’s social justice values respond to this reality, calling on us to criticize oppressive and harmful figures and to gain power for those who have been powerless. But when adult children use the most effective tool they have-themselves-to gain a sense of security and ban their parents from their lives, the roles are simply switched, and the pain only deepens. Often, what I see in my practice are cases of family conflict mismanaged, power dynamics turned upside down rather than negotiated. I see the terrible effect of that trend; situations with no winners, only isolated (孤独的) humans who long to be known and feel safe in the presence of the other. The catch is that after estrangement, adult children are not suddenly less dependent. In fact, they feel abandoned and betrayed, because in the unconscious, it doesn’t matter who is doing the leaving; the feeling that remains is “being left”. They carry the ghosts of their childhood, tackling the emotional reality that those who raised us can never truly be left behind, no matter how hard we try. What I have found is that most of these families need repair, not permanent break-up. How else can one learn how to negotiate needs, to create boundaries and to trust? How else can we love others, and ourselves, if not through accepting the limitations that come with being human? Good relationships are the result not of a perfect level of harmony but rather of successful adjustments. To pursue dialogue instead of estrangement will be hard and painful work. It can’t be a single project of “self-help”, because at the end of the day, real intimacy (亲密关系) is achieved by working through the injuries of the past together. In most cases of family conflict, repair is possible and preferable to estrangement—and it’s worth the work. 28. Why do young people cut ties with the family? A. To gain an independent life. B. To restore harmony in the family. C. To protect their psychological well-being. D. To follow a tendency towards social justice. 29. What does the underlined word “catch” in Paragraph 6 mean? A. Response. B. Problem. C. Operation. D. Emphasis. 30. To manage family conflict, the author agrees that young adults should . A. break down boundaries B. gain power within the family C. live up to their parents’ expectations D. accept imperfection of family members 31. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the passage? A. To advocate a self-help trend. B. To justify a common social value. C. To argue against a current practice. D. To discuss a means of communication. 【答案】28. C 29. B 30. D 31. C 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章讲述了面对家庭冲突或隔阂，相比疏远，修复是更好的方法。 【28题详解】 细节理解题。根据第一段“Search “toxic parents”, and you’ll find more than 38, 000 posts, largely urging young adults to cut ties with their families. The idea is to safeguard one’s mental health from abusive parents.”（搜索“有毒父母”，你会发现有超过38000条帖子，大部分帖子敦促年轻人与家人断绝联系。这个想法是为了保护一个人的心理健康不受父母虐待。）可知，年轻人选择与家庭切断联系是为了保护自己，免于受到心理上的伤害。故选C。 【29题详解】 词句猜测题。根据第六段“The catch is that after estrangement, adult children are not suddenly less dependent. In fact, they feel abandoned and betrayed”（_______是，在与家庭疏远后，成年子女并不会突然变得不那么依赖。事实上，他们会感到被抛弃和被背叛。）可知，子女选择与家庭疏远后，产生的结果是：他们感觉到被抛弃和被背叛，这是一种消极负面的影响。因此，划线后是在解释这一名词，即catch表示严重的后果或是问题。故选B。 【30题详解】 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“What I have found is that most of these families need repair, not permanent break-up.”（我发现，大多数这样的家庭需要修复，而不是永久的破裂。）可知，作者建议年轻人去修复家庭关系，而不是疏远。以及“How else can we love others, and ourselves, if not through accepting the limitations that come with being human? Good relationships are the result not of a perfect level of harmony but rather of successful adjustments.”（如果不接受作为人类的局限性，我们还能怎样去爱别人和自己呢?良好的关系不是完美和谐的结果，而是成功调整的结果。）可知，作者这里使用一个反问句的形式，向年轻人建议，要认识到人类的局限性，才能爱家人以及爱自己。即接受家人的不完美，调整自己的心态，对关系进行修复才能得完美和谐的结果。故选D。 【31题详解】 推理判断题。根据第一段“Search “toxic parents”, and you’ll find more than 38, 000 posts, largely urging young adults to cut ties with their families. The idea is to safeguard one’s mental health from abusive parents.”（搜索“有毒父母”，你会发现超过38000条帖子，大部分敦促年轻人与家人断绝联系。这个想法是为了保护一个人的心理健康不受父母虐待。）可知，开篇作者先提出一个当下普遍存在的趋势：即年轻人在处理家庭冲突时，选择疏远家庭。以及“However, as a psychoanalyst, I’ve seen that trend in recent years become a way to manage conflicts in the family, and I have seen the severe impacts estrangement (c) has on both sides of the divide. This is a self-help trend that creates much harm.”（然而，作为一名精神分析学家，我发现近年来这种趋势已经成为处理家庭冲突的一种方式，我也看到了隔阂对家庭双方的严重影响。这是一种造成很大伤害的自助趋势。）可知，作者紧接着通过转折连词however (然后)指出这种疏远的处理方式是错误的，会带来很大的伤害。因此，作者是为了论述与开篇趋势相反的观点。故选C。 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 阅读短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Five Established Memory Boosters Can’t remember where you left your car keys again? ____32____ And as smartphones and tablets make it possible to outsource memory storage to our devices, the act of forgetting may be easier than ever. But scientists are still discovering how everyday actions can lead to enhancements in our overall memory capacity. Here are a few simple tips for mastering your memory: GET SOME SLEEP. As we’re sleeping, our brains change recent experiences into long-term memory, a process known as consolidation. ____33____ A 2014 Science study found mice that slept after acquiring a new task were able to preserve the memory better than their counterparts lacking in sleep. EXERCISE REGULARLY. If you need another reason to hit the gym, regular exercise—specifically, aerobic exercise—has been shown to enhance memory recall, particularly in young adults. For older adults, it can even put off brain shrinkage. EAT MORE BERRIES. ____34____ A growing body of research suggests that snacking on strawberries, blueberries and blackberries can boost the brain’s communication pathways. And eating berries, according to a 2012 study, could actually slow memory decline caused by aging.

F 【解析】 这是一篇说明文。现在人们越来越容易遗忘一些事，文章提到了五种增强记忆力的方法。 【32题详解】 根据后文“And as smartphones and tablets make it possible to outsource memory storage to our devices, the act of forgetting may be easier than ever.”（随着智能手机和平板电脑让记忆存储外包给我们的设备成为可能，遗忘行为可能比以往更容易。）可知，此处是在解释人们容易忘记一些事情的原因，所以选项G（在我们的大脑中有无数的事情要处理，很容易漏掉一些事情。）切合文意。故选G。 33题详解】 根据后文“A 2014 Science study found mice that slept after acquiring a new task were able to preserve the memory better than their counterparts lacking in sleep.”（《科学》杂志2014年的一项研究发现，接受新任务后睡觉的老鼠比睡眠不足的老鼠能更好地保存记忆。）可知，此处是讲好的睡眠也有助学习，所以选项B（睡个好觉也能帮助你学习。）切合文意。故选B。 【34题详解】 根据后文“A growing body of research suggests that snacking on strawberries, blueberries and blackberries can boost the brain’s communication pathways.”（越来越多的研究表明，吃草莓、蓝莓和黑莓可以促进大脑的通信路径。）可知，此处是讲吃草莓、蓝莓和黑莓对大脑有好处，所以选项D（改变习惯很难，但多吃水果听起来也没那么糟糕，对吧？）切合文意。故选D。 【35题详解】 根据后文“But researchers have learned that saying them out loud — rather than reading information silently—can result in a major memory upgrade. ”（但研究人员已经发现，大声说出这些信息——而不是沉默地阅读信息——可以导致重大的记忆升级。）可知，此处是指记忆新的信息是有技巧的，根据转折词but可知，前文是讲记忆新的信息很难，所以选项A（记住新概念并不总是容易的。）切合文意。故选A。 【36题详解】 根据后文“One of these is the method of loci(轨迹记忆法), or the visualizing of information as major stops along a mental journey, like an imaginary walk through your childhood home.（其中一种方法是定位法，或将信息可视化为精神旅程的主要终点，就像在你童年的家想象一次散步。）”中的One of these可知，前文提到了增强我们记忆的策略，所以选项F（增强我们记忆的策略自古就有。）切合文意。故选F。 第四部分：书面表达(共两节，33分) 第一节(共4小题；第57、58题各2分，第59题3分，第60题6分，共13分) 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。 For many students, having classes online makes them easily distracted. They face challenges when learning online. A main source of distraction is digital technology. While electronic devices are required for online learning, they easily steal attention for long periods of time. Most students will hold their phones or leave them on their desks while studying. There is no doubt that during this time a text message from a friend can start a conversation that results in totally ignoring an assignment. Students might open new tabs to watch a fun video or scroll through social media threads. To overcome this challenge, students are encouraged to put all devices out of sight while working and build a solid timetable. In addition to electronic devices, background noises can be a huge obstacle when it comes to online learning. In fact, sitting in a silent environment often emphasizes background noises even more. Television, family members, pets running in the house, or siblings listening to loud music can all be sources of interruption. Even weather can be a distraction! Imagine a strong wind blowing through the trees or a loud thunderstorm with rain. All these noises can end up disrupting students and affecting their study. A pair of headphones can minimize noise and help students stay on task. Indeed, where and how we study can be a source of distraction as well. Some students wear comfortable pajamas while lying on their beds with laptops to watch class lectures. This can be a problem for concentration because humans mentally associate the bed with resting. Likewise, kitchens raise even more problems! Thinking about food frequently can disturb studying or cause a student to miss part of the class. This problem can be solved by trying to slowly train the brain to separate school time from resting and eating time. Also, a student can grab a light snack before class starts or even before starting an assignment. Different students face different challenges at home. Students need to figure out ways to ensure they stay on track to achieve their academic goals. 37. According to the passage,what can students do to overcome distractions caused by digital technology while learning online? 38. Why do kitchens raise problems for students studying at home? 39. Please decide which part is false in the following statement,then underline it and explain why. To avoid being disturbed by background noises, students could sit in a silent environment or wear a pair of headphones. 40. Please briefly introduce how online learning benefits you.(In about 40 words) 【答案】37. They can put all devices out of sight while studying and build a solid timetable. 38. Because thinking about food frequently can disturb studying or cause them to miss part of the class. 39. To avoid being disturbed by background noises, students could sit in a silent environment or wear a pair of headphones. According to the passage, sitting in a silent environment often emphasizes background noises even more. 40. With online learning, I enjoy more flexibility in rearranging courses and completing tasks. It also allows me to learn at my own pace. For instance, I can start and pause the video when it suits me to ensure that I’ve really mastered the material. 【解析】 【导语】这是一篇说明文。主要介绍了导致许多学生在线学习时分心的原因。 【37题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第二段“To overcome this challenge, students are encouraged to put all devices out of sight while working and build a solid timetable.(为了克服这一挑战，学生们被鼓励在学习时将所有设备放在看不见的地方，并制定一个可靠的时间表。)”可知，学生在线学习时，可以把所有设备都放在视线之外，并制定一个可靠的时间表，以克服数码技术造成的分心。故答案为They can put all devices out of sight while studying and build a solid timetable. 【38题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第四段“Likewise, kitchens raise even more problems! Thinking about food frequently can disturb studying or cause a student to miss part of the class.(同样，厨房也会带来更多的问题！经常想着食物可能会干扰学习或导致学生错过部分课程。)”可知，厨房会给在家里学习的学生带来问题，因为经常想着食物会干扰学习或导致他们错过部分课程。故答案为Because thinking about food frequently can disturb studying or cause them to miss part of the class. 【39题详解】 考查细节理解。根据第三段“In addition to electronic devices, background noises can be a huge obstacle when it comes to online learning. In fact, sitting in a silent environment often emphasizes background noises even more.(除了电子设备之外，背景噪音也是在线学习的巨大障碍。事实上，坐在静默环境中往往更突出背景噪音。)”可知，静默环境会更突出背景噪音，所以为了避免受到背景噪音的影响，学生们不能坐在静默环境中。故答案为To avoid being disturbed by background noises, students could sit in a silent environment or wear a pair of headphones. According to the passage, sitting in a silent environment often emphasizes background noises even more. 【40题详解】 开放性题目。通过在线学习，我可以更灵活地重新安排课程和完成任务。它也让我能够按照自己的节奏学习。例如，我可以在合适的时候启动和暂停视频，以确保我真正掌握了材料。故答案为With online learning, I enjoy more flexibility in rearranging courses and completing tasks. It also allows me to learn at my own pace. For instance, I can start and pause the video when it suits me to ensure that I’ve really mastered the material. 第二节 书面表达（共20分） 41. 假设你是红星中学高二学生李华。你的英国朋友Jim在给你的邮件中提到他对中国传统节日很感兴趣，并请你介绍一个你喜欢的中国传统节日。请你给Jim回信，内容包括： 1.该节日是什么； 2.如何庆祝该节日； 3.你喜欢该节日的理由。 注意： 1.词数100左右； 2.开头和结尾已给出，不计入总词数。 Dear Jim, ____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________ Yours, Li Hua 【答案】Dear Jim, I’m very delighted to know you are interested in traditional Chinese festivals.

The wing is attached to a harness by lines where a pilot sits, similar to a parachute. Is it safe? Paragliding, is as safe as sailing and deep-sea diving. The big advantage is that it’s probably the slowest form of aviation, so if you do crash, you'll hit the ground quite gently! It’s a very relaxing sport as you're mostly sitting down. Yet, you’ll probably experience pain in some muscles you didn’t know you had while learning, but many of those will be due to the walk up the training hill to launch. Where do I learn? There are lots of schools, mainly based inland by appropriate hills or mountains, and there are also schools on the coast near spectacular cliffs. These are very attractive, though the prospect of landing in the sea seems to discourage beginners! It takes seven days to get your basic license; then you’re free to fly independently at sites across the country. What do I need? Pilots normally wear warm clothes in case they get very high up, and a helmet in case they stumble on landing. In terms of gear, schools supply basic training, canopies, harnesses, etc. However, you'll probably want to buy your own more sophisticated equipment, which you’ll be able to choose much better once you’ve tried some out on your course. Who can do it? There’s no upper age limit provided your instructor judges you capable, but the youngest is 14. Anybody with good eyesight and good balance is a potential paraglider pilot. Flying a paraglider is a great sport We hope to see you in the air with us this season! 21. Which would be the best heading for Paragraph 1? A. What is paragliding? B. Who invented paragliding? C. How is paragliding special? D. Why is paragliding popular? 22. According to the passage, paragliding is____________ . A. exciting but tiring B. safe and relaxing C. attractive but expensive D. fast and challenging 23. What can we know from the passage? A. Fit people of any age can take up paragliding. B. Most paragliding schools are situated by the sea. C. Pilots need to buy basic equipment on their training course. D. Learners can fly on their own after at least a week’s training. B I remember the day during our first week of class when we were informed about our semester（学期） project of volunteering at a non-profit organization．When the teacher introduced us to the different organizations that needed our help，my last choice was Operation Iraqi Children （OIC）．My first impression of the organization was that it was not going to make enough of a difference with the plans I had in mind． Then，an OIC representative gave us some details，which somewhat interested me．After doing some research， I believed that we could really do something for those kids．When I went online to the OIC website，I saw pictures of the Iraqi children．Their faces were so powerful in sending a message of their despair（绝望） and need that I joined this project without hesitation．We decided to collect as many school supplies as possible，and make them into kits——one kit，one child． The most rewarding day for our group was project day，when all the efforts we put into collecting the items finally came together．When I saw the various supplies we had collected，it hit me that every kit we were to build that day would eventually be in the hands of an Iraqi child．Over the past four months，I had never imagined how I would feel once our project was completed．While making the kits，I realized that I had lost sight of the true meaning behind it．I had only focused on the fact that it was another school project and one I wanted to get a good grade on．When the kits were completed，and ready to be sent overseas，the warm feeling I had was one I would never forget． In the beginning，I dared myself to make a difference in the life of another person．Now that our project is over，I realize that I have affected not only one life，but ten．With our efforts，ten young boys and girls will now be able to further their education． 24. How did the author feel about joining the OIC project in the beginning？ A. It would affect his/her initial plans． B. It would involve traveling overseas． C. It would not bring him/her a good grade． D. It would not live up to his/her expectations． 25. What mainly helped the author change his/her attitude toward the project？ A. Images of Iraqi children． B. Research by his/her classmates． C A teacher's introduction． D. A representative's comments． 26. The author's OIC project group would help ten Iraqi children to________．. A. become OIC volunteers B. further their education C. study in foreign countries D. influence other children 27. What can we conclude from this passage？ A. One's potential cannot always be underrated． B. First impression cannot always be trusted． C. Actions speak louder than words． D. He who hesitates is lost． C Search “toxic parents”, and you’ll find more than 38, 000 posts, largely urging young adults to cut ties with their families. The idea is to safeguard one’s mental health from abusive parents. However, as a psychoanalyst, I’ve seen that trend in recent years become a way to manage conflicts in the family, and I have seen the severe impacts estrangement (疏远) has on both sides of the divide. This is a self-help trend that creates much harm. Research by Karl Pillemer, a professor at Cornell University, indicates that 1 in 4 American adults have become estranged from their families. I believe that’s an undercount, because others have stopped short of completely cutting off contact but have effectively broken the ties. “Canceling” your parent can be seen as an extension of a cultural trend aimed at correcting imbalances in power and systemic inequality. Certainly the family is one system in which power has never been balanced. In 1933, the psychoanalyst Sándor Ferenczi warned that even the simple indication that someone has more power than we do could potentially be damaging. Today’s social justice values respond to this reality, calling on us to criticize oppressive and harmful figures and to gain power for those who have been powerless. But when adult children use the most effective tool they have-themselves-to gain a sense of security and ban their parents from their lives, the roles are simply switched, and the pain only deepens. Often, what I see in my practice are cases of family conflict mismanaged, power dynamics turned upside down rather than negotiated. I see the terrible effect of that trend; situations with no winners, only isolated (孤独的) humans who long to be known and feel safe in the presence of the other. The catch is that after estrangement, adult children are not suddenly less dependent. In fact, they feel abandoned and betrayed, because in the unconscious, it doesn’t matter who is doing the leaving; the feeling that remains is “being left”. They carry the ghosts of their childhood, tackling the emotional reality that those who raised us can never truly be left behind, no matter how hard we try. What I have found is that most of these families need repair, not permanent break-up. How else can one learn how to negotiate needs, to create boundaries and to trust? How else can we love others, and ourselves, if not through accepting the limitations that come with being human? Good relationships are the result not of a perfect level of harmony but rather of successful adjustments. To pursue dialogue instead of estrangement will be hard and painful work. It can’t be a single project of “self-help”, because at the end of the day, real intimacy (亲密关系) is achieved by working through the injuries of the past together. In most cases of family conflict, repair is possible and preferable to estrangement—and it’s worth the work. 28. Why do young people cut ties with the family? A. To gain an independent life. B To restore harmony in the family. C. To protect their psychological well-being. D. To follow a tendency towards social justice. 29 What does the underlined word “catch” in Paragraph 6 mean? A. Response. B. Problem. C. Operation. D. Emphasis. 30. To manage family conflict, the author agrees that young adults should . A. break down boundaries B. gain power within the family C. live up to their parents’ expectations D. accept imperfection of family members 31. What’s the author’s purpose of writing the passage? A To advocate a self-help trend. B. To justify a common social value. C. To argue against a current practice. D. To discuss a means of communication. 第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，共10分） 阅读短文内容，从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。 Five Established Memory Boosters Can’t remember where you left your car keys again? ____32____ And as smartphones and tablets make it possible to outsource memory storage to our devices, the act of forgetting may be easier than ever. But scientists are still discovering how everyday actions can lead to enhancements in our overall memory capacity. Here are a few simple tips for mastering your memory: GET SOME SLEEP. As we’re sleeping, our brains change recent experiences into long-term memory, a process known as consolidation. ____33____ A 2014 Science study found mice that slept after acquiring a new task were able to preserve the memory better than their counterparts lacking in sleep. EXERCISE REGULARLY. If you need another reason to hit the gym, regular exercise—specifically, aerobic exercise—has been shown to enhance memory recall, particularly in young adults. For older adults, it can even put off brain shrinkage. EAT MORE BERRIES. ____34____ A growing body of research suggests that snacking on strawberries, blueberries and blackberries can boost the brain’s communication pathways. And eating berries, according to a 2012 study, could actually slow memory decline caused by aging. SAY IT OUT LOUD. ____35____ But researchers have learned that saying them out loud — rather than reading information silently—can result in a major memory upgrade. If you’re feeling shy, you can also try typing or writing it out, too. GO TO YOUR MEMORY PALACE. ____36____ One of these is the method of loci(轨迹记忆法), or the visualizing of information as major stops along a mental journey, like an imaginary walk through your childhood home. A 2017 study found that this technique actually reshapes different networks of the brain to better support memory. A. Remembering new concepts isn’t always easy. B. And a good night’s sleep can help you learn, too. C. Sufficient amounts of vitamin B2 can improve your memory. D. Changing habits is hard, but having more fruit doesn’t sound so bad, right? E. And we are beginning to understand the importance of sleep to overall health. F. Strategies for supercharging our memories have been around since ancient times. G. With numerous businesses to deal with in our brain, it’s easy to let a few things slip through. 第四部分：书面表达(共两节，33分) 第一节(共4小题；第57、58题各2分，第59题3分，第60题6分，共13分) 阅读下面短文，根据题目要求用英文回答问题。 For many students, having classes online makes them easily distracted.
