考查代词辨析。They它/他/她们,主格代词;Their它/他/她们的,形容词性物主代词;We我们,主格代词;Our我们的,形容词性物主代词。此处指代前文的“The Summer Olympics”,在句中作主语,应用主格代词They。故选A。

A. join B. joined C. will join D. have joined
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:——我们学校篮球队需要更多球员。汤姆,为什么不加入我们呢?——听起来很棒。我今天下午将参加训练。

5. Shanghai Tower is ________ building in Shanghai.
A. high B. tall C. highest D. the highest
【答案】D
【解析】
【详解】句意:上海中心大厦是上海最高的建筑。
考查形容词最高级。high高的;tall高的;highest最高的;the highest最高的。根据比较范围“in Shanghai”可知,此处应用形容词最高级,形容词最高级前要加定冠词the。故选D。

C. something important D. everything important
【答案】C
【解析】
【详解】句意:你现在有空吗?我有重要的事要告诉你。
anything任何事;nothing没有事;something某事;everything所有事。在肯定句中表示“某事”要用something,形容词important修饰不定代词时要后置,所以应填something important。
7. Our teacher always tells us ________ can succeed without hard work.

【答案】C
【解析】

A. winning B. to win C. won D. win
【答案】B
【解析】
【详解】句意:每个运动员都希望在奥运会上赢得金牌。
考查非谓语动词。根据“hopes … the gold medal in the Olympic Games.”可知,此处考查“hope to do sth.”表示“希望做某事”,固定搭配,所以此处应用动词不定式to win作宾语。故选B。
9 —Congratulations on winning the prize at the school music festival.
—________.
A. That’s OK B. My pleasure C. Thank you D. Sounds good
【答案】C
【解析】

考查情景交际。That’s OK没关系;My pleasure我的荣幸;Thank you谢谢;Sounds good听起来不错。根据语境可知,当别人向自己表示祝贺时,应该表示感谢,所以应该用Thank you。故选C。

I looked out at all the smiling faces at the school gym. The applause (掌声) filled my ears. I did it! I found a new person inside me, a much braver, more outgoing person who had been hidden (隐藏) all along, just waiting for the ____10____ to appear.
Just a few months earlier, it was impossible to ____11____ myself acting in a play in front of two hundred people. But without my teacher, Mrs Smith, I couldn’t get that chance.
In the first and second grade, I was quite shy. But Mrs. Smith always ____12____ me. One day, she said, “Our class is going to ____13____ a play. Anybody, want to try?” A few excited hands were up... mine, of course, was not one of them.
After school she stopped me and invited me for a talk. Confused, I followed her to her desk. She said, “I think you are ____14____ for the lead character. But I was surprised you didn’t raise your hand.”
Me, the lead? Was she crazy?
Mrs. Smith looked into my eyes as if seeing my inner ____15____ locked away inside. “But I’d like you to give this a try for me.” she continued. “If you reach for the stars, you might at least catch a piece of the moon.”
I realized it was time to show myself ____16____. I looked Mrs. Smith right in her sparkling (闪亮的) blue eyes and said, “OK. I’ll try.”
In the following months, I did everything I could to ____17____ I could do it.
At the end of the play, when the audience applauded (鼓掌), I knew they were not just cheering for my performance that night, but for the performances they knew would come in later years because of my newfound confidence.

【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了害羞的作者在老师的鼓励下,勇敢尝试出演话剧主角,最终在舞台上获得成功,找回自信、突破自我的成长故事。
【10题详解】
句意:我发现自己内心有一个崭新的人,一个勇敢得多、外向得多的人,这个人一直隐藏着,只是在等待机会出现。
从后文“without my teacher, Mrs Smith, I couldn’t get that chance”可知,作者需要老师给予的机会才能展现自己,所以此处指等待机会出现。
【11题详解】
句意:就在几个月前,想象自己在两百人面前演戏是不可能的。
从下文“In the first and second grade, I was quite shy”可知,作者之前很害羞,所以无法想象自己在众人面前表演的场景。
【12题详解】
句意:但史密斯老师总是鼓励我。
从后文老师推荐她当主角可知,老师一直在鼓励她,encouraged意为“鼓励”。
【13题详解】
句意:我们班要表演一出话剧。
从上文“acting in a play in front of two hundred people”可知,此处指班级要表演话剧,perform a play表示“表演话剧”,符合文意。
【14题详解】
句意:我觉得你非常适合主角。
结合老师的评价“But I was surprised you didn’t raise your hand.”可知,老师认为作者适合这个角色。be perfect for表示“非常适合……”,是老师对她的肯定。
【15题详解】
句意:史密斯老师看着我的眼睛,仿佛看到了我内心被锁住的自我。
根据前文老师认为作者适合主角可知,是看到内在能力。ability“能力”符合语境。self“自我”;beauty“美丽”;peace“平静”均不符合语境。
【16题详解】
解析:我意识到是时候自信地展现自己了。
根据后文“I looked Mrs. Smith… and said, ‘OK. I’ll try.’”可知,作者变得自信。confidently“自信地”符合语境。widely“广泛地”;simply“简单地”;creatively“有创造力地”均不符合语境。
【17题详解】
句意:在接下来的几个月里,我尽一切努力去展示我能做到。
根据上下文,作者努力练习,想要展示并证明自己可以演好,show I could do it表示“展示我能行”符合语境。

When I was ten years old, I found my sister was different. She had autism (自闭症). She could not look people in the eye. She would often say to herself and say her words again very quietly. She had few friends. Although we went to the same primary school, I never, or hardly ever said in front of others that she was my sister. I was always afraid that others would laugh at me.
Just two years ago, my sister and her classmates had to prepare for a show. She had to act by herself because no one wanted to act with her. “I’ll sing,” she told my parents and me when we were having dinner. I couldn’t believe my ears! How could she sing in front of the school? She even couldn’t look people in the eye. What was worse, she couldn’t speak fluently.
The big day finally arrived. It took her about a minute to tell her name and class to people. I could see someone laughing at her. And some people became bored and said something in a low voice.
“Why is she taking so long?” Some people around me asked. How I wished I had been somewhere else! Finally, my sister started to sing. She opened her mouth, and I was really moved—she sang so beautifully. The hall became quiet. There was only her great singing.
I listened carefully to the song. I was ashamed (惭愧的) of myself. Although I hardly took her seriously as her brother, she didn’t say anything. She never took anything that I did to heart. It was then that I decided to make a change.

Imagine you are going to give a speech the next day. The night before, you spend a lot of time thinking about the possible mistakes you might make and whether you’re prepared enough. Well, you might be overthinking.
Overthinking means going over the same thought again and again, analyzing (分析) the simplest matters or events too much.
According to The Conversation, overthinking comes from one of our instincts (本能). The mind will always see things in the worst possible light. Our brains are always looking for threats (威胁), to make a plan to deal with those threats and keep us safe.
Some people believe that overthinking may be helpful because it helps us look at a problem from every possible angle (角度) and get ready for what might happen. However, research suggests that overthinking can make us feel worried or nervous.
What's more, overthinking might create problems with how you get along with others. As you think the worst, make incorrect guesses, or worry about every little thing others do and say, you might misunderstand their real intentions(意图).
So, instead of sitting and thinking about a problem again and again, you can distract yourself for a bit. That means you can take your attention away from what you are trying to do. Your brain might find better ways to solve the problem while you’re doing something fun, like gardening, or even while you' re sleeping. Also, when you find yourself overthinking, try to question these thoughts. Ask yourself if they make sense and think about other possibilities. It can be hard at first, but recognizing (辨别出) that you are overthinking can help you make a change.
24. According to the passage, overthinking can make people _________.
A. have more to worry about B. solve problems easily
C. think less about simple events D. get on well with others
25. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. How to stop overthinking. B. What makes overthinking happen.
C. Why overthinking is helpful. D. What problems overthinking brings.
26. To stop overthinking, the writer thinks we can _________ .
A. try to go over matters or events quickly B. make a plan to deal with possible threats
C. turn our attention to something enjoyable D. think of the worst possibility of a problem
【答案】24. A 25. B 26. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要讨论了过度思考的定义、原因、影响以及如何识别和控制过度思考。
【24题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“However, research suggests that overthinking can make us feel worried or nervous.”可知,过度思考会让人有更多担忧。故选A。
【25题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第三段“According to The Conversation, overthinking comes from one of our instincts (本能).”可知,本段主要讲述了过度思考发生的原因。故选B。
【26题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章最后一段“So, instead of sitting and thinking about a problem again and again, you can distract yourself for a bit. That means you can take your attention away from what you are trying to do.”可知,为了停止过度思考,作者认为我们可以把注意力转移到令人愉快的事情上。故选C。
D
Think about how much time you spent outside last week. Really “outside”. Walking from the car into the mall doesn’t count. Now think about how much time you spent indoors—on the Internet or playing video games or watching TV. You may say, “I play inside more than outside and I like to play games on the computer.”
If so, it’s likely that you spent more time inside four walls than outside in fresh air. Kids today spend two fewer hours a week on sports and outdoor activities than kids did 20 years ago. That’s according to a University of Michigan study. Non-moving activities are more popular. The costs “include overweight, greater stress (压力), higher possibility of physical and emotional illness and less joy...” says Richard Louv, writer of Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder (大自然不足症).
Playing is important, even for adults (成人). Just getting outdoors does wonders.
Outdoor activity betters your senses. The next time you sit down to message your friends, take note of your senses during and after your texting. Then do the same experiment after you’ve done something outside. You will find being outdoors brings the senses to life. “Hiking, exploring, and fishing help hone all of your senses,” says Betsy Keller. She’s a professor of exercise and sports sciences at Ithaca College in New York. “Smell, sight...all of your senses are in use when you’re outside.”
Outdoor play frees your mind. Are you stressed out? Having trouble putting your mind to what you’re doing? Too much time indoors, away from the natural world, may be a cause (起因). Louv uses a term to describe the set of problems caused by too much time indoors: Nature-Deficit Disorder. He says, “I use it to describe the price we pay for being away from nature.”
Spending time outdoors brings you closer to the environment. When you’re out, breathe in fresh air, hear the leaves crackle (噼啪作响) underfoot and search for cool birds and plants in the woods. It can help you feel more connected to the natural world. No woods nearby? Nature can be found right outside your back door or in your local park.
So the next time you sit down to spend time with a video game, think about treating yourself to a little outdoor play instead.
27. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Playing outside is more important for kids than adults.
B. Kids spend more time outdoors now than twenty years ago.
C. Being so close to nature is the cause of Nature-Deficit Disorder.
D. Non-moving activities bring problems for both mind and body.
28. What does the word “hone” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean?
A. Protect. B. Improve. C. Share. D. Record.
29. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?
A. To discuss how to get closer to nature.
B To explain why people like to play indoors.
C. To encourage people to spend time outdoors.
D. To introduce different kinds of outdoor activities.
【答案】27. D 28. B 29. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文,通过对比现在青少年更多待在室内、缺乏户外活动的现状,介绍了户外活动对感官、身心和亲近自然的好处,指出长期待在室内易引发健康与心理问题,呼吁人们多进行户外活动。
【27题详解】
文中第二段提到“Non-moving activities are more popular. The costs ‘include overweight, greater stress, higher possibility of physical and emotional illness...’”,说明静态活动对身心都会带来问题。
【28题详解】
第四段“Hiking, exploring, and fishing help hone all of your senses”,结合后文“all of your senses are in use when you're outside”,可知hone意为“提升、锻炼”,与improve同义。
【29题详解】
全文介绍户外活动的好处,并在结尾呼吁用户外活动代替电子游戏,作者的主要目的是鼓励人们多花时间在户外。

When I was ten years old, I found my sister was different. She had autism (自闭症). She could not look people in the eye. She would often say to herself and say her words again very quietly. She had few friends. Although we went to the same primary school, I never, or hardly ever said in front of others that she was my sister. I was always afraid that others would laugh at me.
Just two years ago, my sister and her classmates had to prepare for a show. She had to act by herself because no one wanted to act with her. “I’ll sing,” she told my parents and me when we were having dinner. I couldn’t believe my ears! How could she sing in front of the school? She even couldn’t look people in the eye. What was worse, she couldn’t speak fluently.
The big day finally arrived. It took her about a minute to tell her name and class to people. I could see someone laughing at her. And some people became bored and said something in a low voice.
“Why is she taking so long?” Some people around me asked. How I wished I had been somewhere else! Finally, my sister started to sing. She opened her mouth, and I was really moved—she sang so beautifully. The hall became quiet. There was only her great singing.
I listened carefully to the song. I was ashamed (惭愧的) of myself. Although I hardly took her seriously as her brother, she didn’t say anything. She never took anything that I did to heart. It was then that I decided to make a change.
21. Why did the writer never say in front of others that the girl was his sister?
A. The girl would sing in the show. B. The girl had a few friends.
C. The girl sings badly. D. He was afraid others would laugh at him.
22. Which of the following statements is true?
A. The writer changed his opinion about his sister.
B. The writer’s sister got the big prize in the show.
C. The writer’s sister hardly took her brother seriously.
D. The writer disliked his sister because of her singing.
23. Why did the writer feel ashamed during the performance?
A. Because his sister sang poorly.
B. Because the audience laughed at him.
C. Because he realized he failed to act as a good brother to her.
D. Because he realized that she took something he did to her heart.

Imagine you are going to give a speech the next day. The night before, you spend a lot of time thinking about the possible mistakes you might make and whether you’re prepared enough. Well, you might be overthinking.
Overthinking means going over the same thought again and again, analyzing (分析) the simplest matters or events too much.
According to The Conversation, overthinking comes from one of our instincts (本能). The mind will always see things in the worst possible light. Our brains are always looking for threats (威胁), to make a plan to deal with those threats and keep us safe.
Some people believe that overthinking may be helpful because it helps us look at a problem from every possible angle (角度) and get ready for what might happen. However, research suggests that overthinking can make us feel worried or nervous.
What's more, overthinking might create problems with how you get along with others. As you think the worst, make incorrect guesses, or worry about every little thing others do and say, you might misunderstand their real intentions(意图).
So, instead of sitting and thinking about a problem again and again, you can distract yourself for a bit. That means you can take your attention away from what you are trying to do. Your brain might find better ways to solve the problem while you’re doing something fun, like gardening, or even while you' re sleeping. Also, when you find yourself overthinking, try to question these thoughts. Ask yourself if they make sense and think about other possibilities. It can be hard at first, but recognizing (辨别出) that you are overthinking can help you make a change.
24. According to the passage, overthinking can make people _________.
A. have more to worry about B. solve problems easily
C. think less about simple events D. get on well with others
25. What is Paragraph 3 mainly about?
A. How to stop overthinking. B. What makes overthinking happen.
C. Why overthinking is helpful. D. What problems overthinking brings.
26. To stop overthinking, the writer thinks we can _________ .
A. try to go over matters or events quickly B. make a plan to deal with possible threats
C. turn our attention to something enjoyable D. think of the worst possibility of a problem
D
Think about how much time you spent outside last week. Really “outside”. Walking from the car into the mall doesn’t count. Now think about how much time you spent indoors—on the Internet or playing video games or watching TV. You may say, “I play inside more than outside and I like to play games on the computer.”
If so, it’s likely that you spent more time inside four walls than outside in fresh air. Kids today spend two fewer hours a week on sports and outdoor activities than kids did 20 years ago. That’s according to a University of Michigan study. Non-moving activities are more popular. The costs “include overweight, greater stress (压力), higher possibility of physical and emotional illness and less joy...” says Richard Louv, writer of Last Child in the Woods: Saving Our Children from Nature-Deficit Disorder (大自然不足症).
Playing is important, even for adults (成人). Just getting outdoors does wonders.
Outdoor activity betters your senses. The next time you sit down to message your friends, take note of your senses during and after your texting. Then do the same experiment after you’ve done something outside. You will find being outdoors brings the senses to life. “Hiking, exploring, and fishing help hone all of your senses,” says Betsy Keller. She’s a professor of exercise and sports sciences at Ithaca College in New York. “Smell, sight...all of your senses are in use when you’re outside.”
Outdoor play frees your mind. Are you stressed out? Having trouble putting your mind to what you’re doing? Too much time indoors, away from the natural world, may be a cause (起因). Louv uses a term to describe the set of problems caused by too much time indoors: Nature-Deficit Disorder. He says, “I use it to describe the price we pay for being away from nature.”
Spending time outdoors brings you closer to the environment. When you’re out breathe in fresh air, hear the leaves crackle (噼啪作响) underfoot and search for cool birds and plants in the woods. It can help you feel more connected to the natural world. No woods nearby? Nature can be found right outside your back door or in your local park.
So the next time you sit down to spend time with a video game, think about treating yourself to a little outdoor play instead.
27. What can we learn from the passage?
A. Playing outside is more important for kids than adults.
B. Kids spend more time outdoors now than twenty years ago.
C. Being so close to nature is the cause of Nature-Deficit Disorder.
D. Non-moving activities bring problems for both mind and body.
28. What does the word “hone” in Paragraph 4 most probably mean?
A. Protect. B. Improve. C. Share. D. Record.
29. What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage?
A. To discuss how to get closer to nature.
B. To explain why people like to play indoors.
C. To encourage people to spend time outdoors.
D To introduce different kinds of outdoor activities.
