Here’s some helpful advice for you. Some people feel stressed about choosing a hobby. They want to find the perfect one to spend their free time, but this idea is wrong. Sarah Pressman, a scientist, says there’s no perfect hobby. You just need to ask yourself, “What would make me happy today?” Remember, a hobby doesn’t need to take a long time. Even 5 to 10 minutes of a fun activity can make you feel good. How do you find a hobby? Pressman says you can try different activities for a short time and see how you feel.

If you enjoy teamwork, join a club. If you want to be creative, try writing or painting. Changing your habits can be difficult. If you always watch TV or play on the phone in the evening, it may be hard to stop. So make a plan for your new hobby. For example, you can read for 20 minutes before bed.

Pick just one or two resolutions. Do you want to eat more healthily, do more exercise, look for a new job and take a dream trip to other countries? That’s great! But if you want to succeed, choose just one or two of the most important resolutions on your list and focus on them. Be specific (具体的) about your resolutions. Instead of saying, “I’m going to save more money this year,” decide exactly how much money you want to save. According to a study, resolutions need to be specific, and you’ll realize them best by sticking to a simple set of actions. Make sure your resolutions are achievable. Saying you’ll save enough money to stop working by the end of the year is a good idea, but it’s probably very hard to achieve. You also don’t want your resolutions to be so big that they lose the meaning of setting them. So, make sure your resolutions are a little hard but possible. Find the right support (支持). We can use a phone app to record how we’re doing. Having friends’ support is important too. Also, don’t forget to give yourself a reward (奖励) when you do something small towards your resolution. That can build your confidence and help you want to keep going. 69. What does the text suggest about the number of resolutions we should set? A It’s best to choose only one or two important ones. B. We should try to finish all of them as soon as possible. C. The more resolutions we make, the better results we’ll get. D. We should make too many resolutions for the New Year. 70. If Jim says, “I’ll exercise more,” what might the text advise him to do? A. Only exercise when he feels like it. B. Tell everyone about this resolution first. C. Just keep this common idea and start anytime. D. Decide exactly how long to exercise each week. 71. What does the underlined word “achievable” mean? A. Very exciting and fun. B. Very difficult and tiring. C. Possible to reach or do. D. Popular with many people. 72. What’s the main idea of this text? A. New Year resolutions are hard to keep and often fail. B. Good ways to make and keep your New Year resolutions. C. Why people should stop making New Year resolutions. D. The history of making New Year resolutions around the world. 【答案】69. A 70. D 71. C 72. B 【解析】 【导语】本文指出新年是制定决心的好时机，并从数量选择、内容具体、目标可实现、寻求支持四方面给出制定并坚持新年决心的实用建议。 【69题详解】 细节理解题。根据“choose just one or two of the most important resolutions on your list and focus on them”可知，文章建议只选择一两个最重要的新年决心，故选A。 【70题详解】 细节理解题。根据“Be specific about your resolutions.”和“decide exactly how much money you want to save”的举例可知，决心要具体，吉姆说要多锻炼，文章会建议他明确具体的锻炼时间，故选D。 【71题详解】 词句猜测题。根据“So, make sure your resolutions are a little hard but possible.”可知，作者强调决心要有点难度但能做到，由此可推知achievable指“可实现的”，故选C。 【72题详解】 主旨大意题。根据“The New Year is a great time to set resolutions. Here’s some advice.”及后文四个方面的具体建议可知，文章主要是介绍制定并坚持新年决心的好方法，故选B。 第二节 阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题（请注意每小题的词数要求）。 F Once there was a horse and a goat (山羊) in a village. The horse always did heavy work. A villager used it to carry things from the village to the city. Then he sold things in the city all day. Sometimes he would lend his horse to others when they needed it.

Now she has her own workshop, and she brings old books back to life. Restoring ancient books is challenging. Li says it looks easy, but in fact, it takes a long time to do it well. Usually, there are more than 20 steps to restore a book, such as taking photos for records, taking apart the book, cleaning the book, and putting it back together. Restorers must finish each step with great care, because even one small mistake can bring a big problem for the book. Most of the time, the work is tiring. Li thinks it’s very important to find ways to enjoy her job. For example, when she’s restoring an old book, she looks at the words inside. She feels it’s amazing to touch these old things with a long history. She’s happy that she can help people from the past tell their stories to us today. Now Li also gives lessons online, and many young people like her teaching videos. More and more people are getting interested in the skill, Li hopes more people can join her and help protect ancient books. 59. What’s the main idea of paragraph 2? A. Li’s workshop is popular with young people. B. A book restorer needs to be good at taking photos. C. Young women are more suitable for restoring books. D. Restoring a book needs a lot of care and hard work. 60. What does Li Yangyang think is important at work? A. To learn new skills online. B. To write down the mistakes. C. To find the fun of the work.

C If you want to spend less time looking at screens, taking up a new hobby can help you. Here’s some helpful advice for you. Some people feel stressed about choosing a hobby. They want to find the perfect one to spend their free time, but this idea is wrong. Sarah Pressman, a scientist, says there’s no perfect hobby. You just need to ask yourself, “What would make me happy today?” Remember, a hobby doesn’t need to take a long time. Even 5 to 10 minutes of a fun activity can make you feel good. How do you find a hobby? Pressman says you can try different activities for a short time and see how you feel. It’s like trying on new clothes. You need to try on a few to find what you like. Think about choosing one in your life. If you want more energy try a new kind of exercise. If you enjoy teamwork, join a club. If you want to be creative, try writing or painting. Changing your habits can be difficult. If you always watch TV or play on the phone in the evening, it may be hard to stop. So make a plan for your new hobby. For example, you can read for 20 minutes before bed. If it’s easy to start a hobby, you’ll do it more often. 62. Which is the scientist’s advice according to the text? A. Just do things that you’re really good at. B. Try different activities to see what you like. C. Try on different clothes to find your own style. D. Don’t spend too much time on your hobbies. 63. What does the underlined word “one” in Paragraph 3 refer to? A. A hobby. B. A kind of exercise. C. A club. D. Writing orpainting. 64. Which question can the last paragraph answer? A.

A grandma’s happy life E The New Year is a great time to set resolutions. Here’s some advice. Pick just one or two resolutions. Do you want to eat more healthily, do more exercise, look for a new job and take a dream trip to other countries? That’s great! But if you want to succeed, choose just one or two of the most important resolutions on your list and focus on them. Be specific (具体的) about your resolutions. Instead of saying, “I’m going to save more money this year,” decide exactly how much money you want to save. According to a study, resolutions need to be specific, and you’ll realize them best by sticking to a simple set of actions. Make sure your resolutions are achievable. Saying you’ll save enough money to stop working by the end of the year is a good idea, but it’s probably very hard to achieve. You also don’t want your resolutions to be so big that they lose the meaning of setting them. So, make sure your resolutions are a little hard but possible. Find the right support (支持). We can use a phone app to record how we’re doing. Having friends’ support is important too. Also, don’t forget to give yourself a reward (奖励) when you do something small towards your resolution. That can build your confidence and help you want to keep going. 69. What does the text suggest about the number of resolutions we should set? A. It’s best to choose only one or two important ones. B. We should try to finish all of them as soon as possible. C. The more resolutions we make, the better results we’ll get. D. We should make too many resolutions for the New Year. 70. If Jim says, “I’ll exercise more,” what might the text advise him to do? A. Only exercise when he feels like it. B. Tell everyone about this resolution first. C. Just keep this common idea and start anytime. D. Decide exactly how long to exercise each week. 71. What does the underlined word “achievable” mean? A. Very exciting and fun. B. Very difficult and tiring. C. Possible to reach or do. D. Popular with many people. 72. What’s the main idea of this text? A. New Year resolutions are hard to keep and often fail. B. Good ways to make and keep your New Year resolutions. C. Why people should stop making New Year resolutions. D. The history of making New Year resolutions around the world. 第二节 阅读下面短文，并用英语回答问题（请注意每小题的词数要求）。 F Once there was a horse and a goat (山羊) in a village. The horse always did heavy work.
