Fresh out of University of Brighton, I'm eager to put my studies into practice. I have spent a lot of time at Polegate covering different classes, so I already know what a fantastic school community this is! Outside of school, I am often curled up with a good book — I am on a plan to read more books than there are days this year — or running up and down a netball court. I am very crazy about learning in all areas of the curriculum and can't wait to get started! Miss Tennant Hello, everyone! I am Miss Tennant and am excited to become a part of the wonderful Polegate community in September. I have been a primary teacher in Eastbourne for 3 years and have just got back from Australia where I was very fortunate to be able to teach children specifically in Mathematics, so I am very excited to be back in the classroom! In my spare time, I usually go to the beach or read books a lot. I am looking forward to getting to know you all very soon and I hope you have a wonderful final term and a lovely summer break. 语篇解读：本文是一篇应用文。文章主要介绍了三位新老师的爱好、教学经验和对新工作的期待。 1．What can we learn about Miss Keith?

I was thirteen when I was first called fat.Friends and neighbours would make jokes on my big size.As I entered my late teens, I had completely lost confidence in my body and, subsequently, in myself.Having failed to live up to conventional beauty standards, I was convinced that if I wanted to be loved, I needed to offer more, doing anything to please everyone around. I entered adulthood thinking I wasn't “enough” — an idea that was seeded not only by the fact that “skinny” is celebrated, but also by the language associated with accounts of losing weight — self-improvement, discipline — all virtues.Being fat quickly categorizes you as lazy and undisciplined.Consumed by thoughts of the way my body looked, I didn't notice the other ways my body needed attention.I failed to realize, for example, that my period was much heavier and more painful than ever before.Actually I developed a rare disease and later I had two surgeries. I was always made to feel that my weight was the root of a lot of problems in my life; I have learnt this is not true.After a lot of self-reflection and some professional help, I realized I never learnt to like myself.While two decades of self-hatred cannot be undone overnight, I have taken first steps to acceptance. I am now much lighter than before, in body and mind.There are days I find voices on social media saying I am too fat to be loved or to be worthy, but I am learning not to focus on that thought for long.As long as I like myself, just the way I am, opinions at the end of the day are just water off a duck's back. 语篇解读：本文是一篇记叙文。作者由于身体超重，一直处于自卑的心理状态，直到一场重病让她清醒过来，开始接受自己的体重，并学会了爱自己。 4．What can we learn about the author from the first two paragraphs? A．She could change her weight at will. B．She had different beauty standards from others. C．She tried to love others to build her confidence.

B．She failed to celebrate “skinny”． C．She was labelled as lazy for her weight. D．She put on more weight after entering adulthood. 解析：选C　推理判断题。根据第三段“I entered adulthood thinking ...as lazy and undisciplined.”中的“lazy and undisciplined”可知，由于肥胖，作者还被贴上了懒惰和不自律的标签。 6．What caused the author to make a change?

A．Beauty Matters B．Opinions Vary C．Worth Your Weight D．Beyond Your Limits 解析：选C　标题归纳题。通读全文，特别是根据最后一段第二句可知，作者主要想表达接受自己原本的体重，并学会爱自己。 C “It's somewhat surreal，” Minnie Payne, a 90-year-old woman, said upon earning her master's degree and becoming the oldest documented student to complete coursework at the University of North Texas (UNT). Prior to Payne, Elmer Kretzschmar, a 97-year-old, was the only individual at UNT to have received a degree at such an advanced age. Kretzschmar received his master's in education in 2009, having completed his coursework 30 years earlier in the 1970s. Born to workers, Payne grew up in a small South Carolina town where there was only one cinema, one drugstore, one gas station, and one grocery store. She graduated from high school in 1950 and then started to work to support her family. Over the course of her life, Payne held various jobs, including being a saleswoman, a temporary teacher, and a word processor. However, she always had a desire to pursue university. Therefore, in her late 60s, she registered at Texas Woman's University and obtained her bachelor's degree (学士学位) in general studies in 2006. This led to her continuing academic journey at UNT. During her time at UNT, she took many online courses, which eventually switched to in-person meetings. She wasn't able to make the in-person classes and ended up facing a challenge. Fortunately, her former adviser suggested an alternative path, allowing her to earn her master's degree by focusing on different things. She chose writing, which she has always had a love for. Studying at UNT was challenging but Payne succeeded after spending many all-nighters and committing a significant amount of time to her studies. And she's not done yet. “I have achieved a significant milestone, but I feel that I still have plenty of rewarding moments ahead，” she said. “I intend to work until the very end because if I'm not pursuing, something worthwhile or helping others, I won't be a happy camper.” 语篇解读：本文是一篇新闻报道。文章报道了一位90岁高龄的女士Minnie Payne获得硕士学位的经历。 8．Why does the author mention Kretzschmar? A．To highlight Payne's uniqueness. B．To indicate Kretzschmar's hard work. C．To analyze the two students' similarity. D．To introduce another excellent graduate. 解析：选A　推理判断题。根据第一段的描述可知，Payne在高龄完成学业这件事上同样具有非凡意义，作者提及Kretzschmar的事迹是为了突出Payne的与众不同。故选A。 9．What might the background information imply about young Payne? A．She lacked university ambition then. B．She possessed superb teaching skills. C．Jobs were easy to find in those days. D．Universities were inaccessible to her. 解析：选D　推理判断题。根据第二段第一、二句可知，她当时所处的环境使得她没有机会去上大学。故选D。 10．What caused Payne to be in a difficult situation while studying at UNT? A．Failure to attend classes. B．Suffering from a disease. C．Too many online courses. D．Choosing a different path. 解析：选A　细节理解题。根据第四段第一、二句可知，Payne在北德克萨斯大学学习时遇到困难是因为无法参加线下课程。故选A。 11．What are the last two paragraphs mainly about? A．Her deep-seated habit. B．Her intention of working hard. C．Her hard-earned success. D．Her pursuit of a meaningful life. 解析：选D　段落大意题。根据最后两段描述可知，这两段主要强调她追求有意义的生活。故选D。 D As you grow rapidly through your teenage years, you will experience a lot of changes.The changes may seem difficult and they may seem to happen quickly.Don't panic! You will deal successfully with them! You are a young adult now! With more responsibility, you will find more freedom to make your own choices.This is a time to be well informed about your choices so that you can make healthy balanced decisions that will help shape your future.You may already know your career path or you may have no idea at all what you want to do.Both situations are fine! Work hard and the right opportunity will present itself to you. Young adulthood means greater freedom and more choices.You will probably want to be independent.But try not to shut your family out of your life.You should learn to think of others even though you are old enough to look after yourself.Your family have been with you since you came into this world. It is also perfectly natural in this time for you to spend more time with your friends than your family.Choose your friends wisely.A true friend will stand by you no matter what happens.This period is part of the life cycle.There are some people who will be with you throughout life's journey and there will be some people with whom you part and go separate ways.Leaving school can be hard.The reality is that you may not ever see all of your classmates again. You are a young adult.It is your life.No one can live it for you.The choices that you make from now on will be your choices.So making the right choices will be important to you.Life is for living.Enjoy your life wisely! 语篇解读：本文是一篇议论文。步入成年意味着较多的自由和选择，但我们要学会做出正确的选择。 12．Who is the passage mainly intended for? A．Adults.　　　　　 B．Teenagers. C．Teachers. 　 D．Young parents. 解析：选B　细节理解题。根据第一段第一句可知，这篇文章是写给青少年的。 13．As far as the author is concerned, teenage years are ________. A．too hard for the young people to get through B．a time of complete freedom to make some choices C．a key period for young students to leave their parents D．an important time for the young to make the right choices 解析：选D　细节理解题。根据第二段第二句可知，在作者看来，青少年时期是年轻人做出正确选择的重要时期。 14．What does the underlined word “part” in paragraph 4 probably mean? A．Attract each other. B．Push each other. C．Leave each other. D．Impress each other. 解析：选C　词义猜测题。画线部分和 “go separate ways”并列；画线词所在句子意为“有些人会陪伴你度过一生，有些人则会与你分道扬镳。”由此可知，part意为“分开”。 15．What is the text mainly about? A．Becoming a young adult. B．The hard choices in life. C．Saying goodbye to the past. D．The key to childhood success. 解析：选A　主旨大意题。根据第一段并结合全文内容可知，文章主要讨论了步入成年后所面临的选择。 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 to cope when you feel left out Being left out by a group of friends is painful at any age.To cope with being left out, there are several things that you can do.

One day, Jack came home from school feeling particularly excited.He just found a sci-fi book about an adventure on the moon.Upon arriving at home, he couldn't tear himself away from the book.He read and read until it was dark.Having finished reading it, he couldn't wait to share it with his mother, only to be told that he should focus on more practical subjects like math and history, which would help him get into a good college and have a successful career. Jack couldn't understand why his mother didn't see the value in what he was doing.He felt that she was holding him back and not allowing him to pursue his true interests.“Why can't you see how important this is to me？” Jack asked his mother angrily.“I'm never going to be happy if I have to spend my life doing things that I show no interest in just because they are practical or make you proud.” The once peaceful home was filled with tension and anger.His mother's voice grew louder as she shouted, “You can't just do whatever you want! You should be responsible for your future！” Jack, fueled by his own frustration, shouted back, “I am tired of you always telling me what to do! I am not a child anymore! You only care about your own feeling! You never thought about my feeling！” They were so caught up in their own anger and hurt that they failed to see how their words and actions were affecting each other. 注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2．请按如下格式作答。 Jack rushed into his bedroom and locked the door heavily.　 ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ When Jack heard his mother's words, regretful tears rolled down his face.　 ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ ________________________________________________________________________ 参考范文： Jack rushed into his bedroom and locked the door heavily. He lay on the bed, hiding himself in the quilt.What he really wanted to do was to cut himself off from the whole world, especially from his mother.He couldn't figure out why his mother didn't understand him and why she forced him to do something he didn't like.Slowly, he fell asleep while thinking.Suddenly he was awakened, hearing his mother's voice outside the door, which was filled with apologies and warmth.His mother promised him that she would respect his interests from then on. When Jack heard his mother's words, regretful tears rolled down his face. He realized that everything his mother did was totally for the sake of his future and what he said hurt his mother's heart hard.It occurred to him that he had never showed his gratitude to his mother.He couldn't wait to open the door and said thank you to his mother, who was standing in the doorway.He also promised his mother that he would study hard in practical subjects.Finally, misunderstanding cleared, they hugged each other tightly with a joyful smile. 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
