Mark, an eighth-grader felt stressed by schoolwork. One hot afternoon, as he tried to finish maths problems at his desk, the numbers swam before his tired eyes. A failed test paper lay on the floor. Fear filled his heart. He ran to a park and sat on an old bench (长凳).
By a large tree, an old man was feeding birds. Birds flew down freely, and some even landed on his open hand. “Young friend,” the old man said kindly, noticing Mark’s sad face, “why does sadness hang over you like heavy rain?”
Mark shared his worries: there were many tests, sleepless nights, and fear of failing. The old man listened quietly. Picking up a stick, he drew a river in the dirt (泥土). “Notice these bends (弯曲处)?” he said softly. “If water pushes straight forward, it will break against rocks or disappear. But by flowing gently (温柔地流), turning around stones, it reaches the sea.” He told Mark how famous thinkers found their best ideas while resting: Beethoven walking in the woods, Newton sitting under a tree. “Bright minds,” he smiled, “need quiet moments to grow.”
The next day, Mark woke up 30 minutes earlier than before. Instead of studying, he watched the sunrise paint the sky pink and orange. He drew funny cloud shapes in his notebook. During short breaks, he sat under trees, eyes closed, listening to leaves whisper (发出沙沙声). Slowly, his body felt lighter. Surprisingly, difficult maths problems seemed easier, as if his mind was wiped clean.
One month later, Mark got an A in the maths test. But his true joy came from words in his notebook, “Today, I learned to move like a river—strong but gentle.”

When I was small, my mum always told me, “I just want you to be happy.” But what exactly is happiness? Is it a place, or a never-ending journey?
Is happiness on social media? It sure seems that way. People love sharing perfect pictures online. But going through posts on the Internet sometimes can actually make you feel worse about your life. Because they mislead (误导) people into thinking that others are better off. Is that true? Of course not. A study shows people spending over two hours daily on social media are twice as likely to feel lonely. ▲ .
But what if we’re the ones posting? When we share a happy moment, we get excited, but after a while, we return to feeling the same as before. Happiness only lasts for so long, and when it ends, we set out looking for new happiness. And social media has made this search harder than ever.
Happily, there’s still hope for us to find lasting happiness. This happens when we allow ourselves to feel and deal with emotions like anger, disappointment, fear and sadness. It’s not easy, but when we are honest about our experiences, we build deeper and more meaningful connections with others. And those friendships bring us smiles that last much longer than any number of “likes” on a screen!
March 20th is World Happiness Day. Take it as a reminder that trying to be happy all the time is like trying to catch a unicorn (独角兽)—it’s just not going to happen. Instead, focus on your own journey and accept different emotions you’ll feel along the way.
根据材料内容选择最佳答案。

C. By asking questions. D. By giving examples.
12. Which of the following can be put in ▲ ?
A. Instead, people will take it seriously.
B. What’s more, social media opens people’s eyes.
C. In this way, people can know more about others.
D. In fact, using social media too much causes low spirits.
13. How do people’s feelings change in Paragraph 3?
A. Sad then happy. B. No change at all.
C. Excited all the time. D. Excited then normal.
14. Who might get lasting happiness in life according to Paragraph 4?
A. David can control his emotions calmly.
B. Mary loves posting pictures on the Internet.
C. Lucy usually shows off her life on the Internet.

When I was small, my mum always told me, “I just want you to be happy.” But what exactly is happiness? Is it a place, or a never-ending journey?
Is happiness on social media? It sure seems that way. People love sharing perfect pictures online. But going through posts on the Internet sometimes can actually make you feel worse about your life. Because they mislead (误导) people into thinking that others are better off. Is that true? Of course not. A study shows people spending over two hours daily on social media are twice as likely to feel lonely. ▲ .
But what if we’re the ones posting? When we share a happy moment, we get excited, but after a while, we return to feeling the same as before. Happiness only lasts for so long, and when it ends, we set out looking for new happiness. And social media has made this search harder than ever.
Happily, there’s still hope for us to find lasting happiness. This happens when we allow ourselves to feel and deal with emotions like anger, disappointment, fear and sadness. It’s not easy, but when we are honest about our experiences, we build deeper and more meaningful connections with others. And those friendships bring us smiles that last much longer than any number of “likes” on a screen!
March 20th is World Happiness Day. Take it as a reminder that trying to be happy all the time is like trying to catch a unicorn (独角兽)—it’s just not going to happen. Instead, focus on your own journey and accept different emotions you’ll feel along the way.

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,主要讲述了Julie在深夜驾车途中,克服恐惧救助车祸伤者的故事。
【21题详解】
句意:当Julie走近时,她发现一辆黑色轿车发生了事故。
根据前文“she saw something on fire on the road, so she stopped her car by the road”,Julie停车后自然会靠近查看情况,get closer意为“走近、靠近”, 符合语境。wet“湿的”、tired“疲惫的”、ready“准备好的”均与“查看事故现场”的动作无关。
【22题详解】
句意:黑烟到处都是,她看不到车里的情况。
前文明确提到“something on fire”,车辆起火会产生大量烟雾,导致视线受阻,smoke“烟”符合事故现场的场景逻辑。gas“气体”、ink“墨水”、tea“茶”均与“火灾”无关。
【23题详解】
句意:因为天色已晚,周围没有其他人,Julie有点害怕。
结合前文“it was late and there was nobody else around”,深夜独自面对起火的事故现场,Julie的情绪应是恐惧的,scared“害怕的”贴合这种心理状态。clear“清楚的”、shocked“震惊的”、careless“粗心的”均不合语境。
【24题详解】
句意:她的小女儿正在家里等她,所以她想离开。
前半句“her little daughter was waiting for her at home”是原因,后半句“she wanted to leave”是结果,前后为因果关系,so“所以”用于引出结果,符合逻辑。or“或者”表选择,but“但是”表转折,and“和”表并列,均不符合此处逻辑关系。
【25题详解】
句意:那一刻,她想起了自己遇到困难时帮助过她的人。
was in trouble意为“遭遇困难/麻烦”,与“别人曾在她困难时伸出援手”的语境契合,也为后文她决定帮助他人埋下伏笔。gave up“放弃”、took up“占据/开始从事”、learned from“从……学习”均与“困难中被帮助”的语境无关。
【26题详解】
句意:然后她知道自己必须冷静地应对局面。
前文提到她既想离开又想起被帮助的经历,此处表示她决定冷静处理事故现场的情况,manage the situation意为“应对/处理局面”,符合她的行为转变。leave“离开”、press“按压”、return“返回”均与“处理现场”的语境不符。
【27题详解】
句意:她再次走回车边,拨打了110,并迅速检查车里是否有人。
事故现场的常规流程是报警后确认车内人员情况,checked“检查”符合这一动作逻辑,也为后文发现伤者做铺垫。thought“思考”、imagined“想象”、connected“连接”均与“确认车内人员”的动作无关。
【28题详解】
句意:他看起来伤得很重。
后文提到“Julie pulled the man out of the car”以及“he kept bleeding, so blood was all over his body”,说明伤者伤势严重,badly hurt意为“伤得很重”,符合语境。happily“开心地”、nervously“紧张地”、especially“尤其”均无法体现伤势的严重程度。
【29题详解】
句意:Julie毫不犹豫地独自把男子从车里拉了出来。
by oneself意为“独自”,此处主语是Julie(女性),反身代词需用herself,指代Julie自己。 itself“它自己”指代事物,myself“我自己”是第一人称反身代词,himself“他自己”指代男性,均不符合主语的人称和性别。
【30题详解】
句意:在火势恶化前,Julie把他移到了安全地带。
前文提到车辆起火,为了避免伤者被火烧伤,需要将其转移到安全的地方,move sb. to safety意为“把某人转移到安全处”,符合紧急救援的逻辑。entry“入口”、happiness“幸福”、brightness“明亮”均与“火灾现场的安全位置”无关。
【31题详解】
句意:做完这些后,Julie太累了,一下子瘫倒在地上。
前文描述她完成了报警、救人、转移伤者等一系列紧急动作,身心俱疲,throw oneself to the ground意为“扑倒/瘫倒在地”,体现了她疲惫的状态。hit“击打”、dressed“穿衣服”、avoided“避免”均无法体现她的疲惫状态。
【32题详解】
句意:他一直在流血,所以浑身都是血。
后文明确提到“blood was all over his body”,说明伤者持续出血,bleeding“流血”与这一细节完全呼应。burning“燃烧”、harming“伤害”、pressing“按压”均与“浑身是血”的语境无关。
【33题详解】
句意:他紧紧看着她,试图把活下去的希望传递给她。
伤者重伤且身处险境,看着救助自己的Julie,眼神中传递的是对生的渴望,hope of living意为“活下去的希望”,符合伤者的心理状态。aid“帮助”、love“爱”、idea“主意”均无法体现“生的渴望”这一语境。
【34题详解】
句意:我很幸运被救了,因为你没有丢下我一个人。
伤者在危急时刻被Julie救助,内心充满感激,认为自己是幸运的,luckily“幸运地”贴合他获救后的心情。freshly“新鲜地”、carefully“仔细地”、seriously“严重地”均与获救后的心情无关。
【35题详解】
句意:英雄不只是做伟大事情的人,也是在别人需要帮助时伸出援手的人。
此处是对全文主题的升华,传统意义上的英雄通常被认为是做“伟大的事”的人,与后文“普通人伸出援手”形成对比,great things意为“伟大的事情”,符合对英雄的常规定义。easy“容易的”、quick“快速的”、strict“严格的”均与“英雄的行为”语境不符。

【解析】
【导语】本文主要讲述了虽然有时对别人生气是正常的,但我们应该尽力控制自己的愤怒,而不是以不好的方式表达出来,并介绍了一些保持冷静的简单方法。
【46题详解】
句意:虽然有时对别人生气是正常的,但我们应该总是尽力控制我们的愤怒,而不是以不好的方式表达出来。根据“expressing it...bad ways”可知,此处表示“以不好的方式表达出来”,in bad ways“以不好的方式”。
【47题详解】
