Do you often feel stressed when exams are coming? You are not alone. Many students experience this. However, too much pressure can harm your health and lower your performance. Here are some healthy ways to manage study pressure.
First, make a realistic study plan. Break your big goal, like “study for the final exam,” into smaller tasks, such as “review Chapter 1 today.” This makes the work seem less overwhelming. Use a planner or a calendar app to keep track of your progress. When you finish a task, tick it off. This gives you a sense of achievement.
Second, find time to relax. Your brain cannot work non-stop. Take short breaks every 40-50 minutes of study. During the break, you can do some light stretching, listen to music, or look out of the window. Also, make sure you get enough sleep, especially before the exam day. A tired mind cannot think clearly.
Third, talk about your feelings. Don’t keep your worries to yourself. Share them with your parents, teachers, or good friends. Sometimes, just talking about it can make you feel much better. They may also offer useful advice or just listen to you, which is very supportive.
Finally, remember that exams are important, but they are not the only measure of your ability or your future. Do your best in preparation, but try to keep a positive attitude. Tell yourself, “I have prepared well, and I will try my best.”
根据短文内容,选择最佳答案。
11. What is the passage mainly about?
A. How to get high scores in every exam. B. How to make friends with teachers.
C. Healthy ways to manage study pressure. D. The importance of eating healthy food.
12. What is the first suggestion for dealing with pressure?
A. Talk to your friends. B. Get enough sleep.
C. Make a realistic study plan. D. Listen to music all day.
13. What is a good thing to do during a short study break?
A. Start another difficult task. B. Do some light stretching.
C. Worry about the exam. D. Play video games for hours.
14. Who does the writer suggest you share your worries with?
A. Strangers online. B. Parents, teachers, or good friends.
C. Only the smartest classmate. D. No one; you should keep them to yourself.

【解析】
【导语】本文讲述琼斯太太和孙子贾斯汀种蔬菜的故事。通过劳动,贾斯汀学会了耐心和努力的重要性,收获了满足感。
【21题详解】
句意:我准备在这里种些蔬菜。
根据下文“Are you going to help me?”可知,奶奶打算种蔬菜,正在做准备。prepare to do sth.表示“准备做某事”,符合语境。hate“讨厌”、learn“学习”和disagree“不同意”均不符合打算种菜的语境。
【22题详解】
句意:奶奶,你能告诉我你为什么想种蔬菜吗?
根据下文“We can eat them when they are fully grown.”可知,奶奶在解释种菜的原因是这些蔬菜成熟后可以吃。询问原因应用why。how“怎么样”、when“什么时候”和where“在哪里”分别询问方式、时间和地点,与题目不符。
【23题详解】
句意:但这将花费几个月的时间。
根据“a few months”可知,此处指种植需要花费时间。It takes some time是固定用法,表示“花费时间”。cause“导致”、waste“浪费”和show“展示”均无此意。
【24题详解】
句意:贾斯汀没有种蔬菜的经验,所以他惊讶地问道:“好几个月?为什么我们不去商店买一些呢?”。
根据“so he asked in surprise”可知,他没有种植经验,不懂种植知识,才导致他对种植时间长的惊讶,have no experience“没有经验”符合语境,sign“标志”、pressure“压力”和change“改变”不符合逻辑。
【25题详解】
句意:为什么我们不去商店买一些呢?
根据“go to the store”可知,去商店的目的是购买蔬菜。buy“购买”符合去商店获取蔬菜的逻辑。invite“邀请”、throw“扔掉”和offer“提供”均不符合。
【26题详解】
句意:亲爱的,当我像你这么大时,我的父母教我种蔬菜。
根据“when I was your age”可知,奶奶在讲述自己的经历。父母教的是奶奶自己,应用me“我”。you“你”、him“他”和them“他们”指代对象错误。
【27题详解】
句意:我通过农活获得了一些种植技能。
根据“got some planting skills”和“the farm work”可知,技能是通过劳动获得的。through表示“通过……方式或途径”。as“作为”、off“离开”和on“在……上”均无法表达此逻辑。
【28题详解】
句意:这不是无聊的杂活,而是一项令人愉快的活动。
根据“not a boring chore”可知,此处应填与boring相反的词。enjoyable意为“令人愉快的”,与 boring形成对比。useful“有用的”、popular“流行的”和crazy“疯狂的”不符。
【29题详解】
句意:更重要的是,它们比商店里的尝起来更新鲜。
根据“than those from stores”可知,自家种的蔬菜通常比商店的新鲜。fresher“更新鲜的”符合自家种植蔬菜的优势。hotter“更热”、drier“更干的”和worse“更差的”不符合常理。
【30题详解】
句意:这些话让贾斯汀很兴奋。
根据“I can’t wait to try”可知,贾斯汀迫不及待想尝试,可见他很感兴趣。excited“兴奋的”表示情绪高涨。talented“有才华的”、popular“受欢迎的”和lazy“懒惰的”均不符合此时的心情。
【31题详解】
句意:他们花了好几个小时才完成这项工作。
根据“It took them several hours”可知,指花费时间做完耕种工作。finish the work表示“完成工作”。describe“描述”、guess“猜测”和imagine“想象”均不符。
【32题详解】
句意:琼斯太太和贾斯汀仔细地照料菜园。
根据“the garden carefully”及后文蔬菜的长大可知,需要照料菜园。look after意为“照顾、照料”。ask for“索求”、look for“寻找”和take after“长得像”意思不符。
【33题详解】
句意:终于,到了收获的时候了。
根据上文种植、照料的过程,此处指时间推移后的结果。Finally“终于”表示经过一段时间后的最终结果。Usually“通常”、Never“从不”和Certainly“当然”不符。
【34题详解】
句意:然后他带着剩下的蔬菜回家,把它们递给奶奶。
根据“them to his grandma”和“Mrs. Jones used them to cook a dish”可知,是把蔬菜交给奶奶做饭。passed意为“传递、交给”,符合动作。returned“返回”、lent“借出”和paid“支付”均不符合语境。
【35题详解】
句意:贾斯汀尝了尝,感到一种强烈的愉悦感。
根据“feeling of pleasure”可知,修饰感觉常用strong。a strong feeling表示“强烈的感觉”。big“大的”、heavy“重的”和long“长的”不修饰 feeling。

【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,讲述了野火的危害与安全防范,旨在向读者科普自然灾害知识并提高安全防范意识。
【46题详解】
句意:去年,一场大型野火在美国西部爆发。表示泛指“一场”大火,且空后的big为辅音音素开头,因此使用不定冠词a。
【47题详解】
句意:这场大火燃烧了数周,并且毁坏了无数房屋。空前的动词过去式burned(燃烧)和空后的动词过去式destroyed(毁坏)是并列顺承的关系,因此要用并列连词and连接。
【48题详解】

【答案】51. This is Sally speaking.
52. What were you doing at eleven last night?
53. Why were you outside?
54. Are you all OK?
55. I agree with you.
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了Tom和Sally通过电话交流,Tom打电话给Sally未接通,询问情况后得知Sally所在城市昨晚发生地震,Sally和家人为了安全跑到公寓楼外,幸运的是大家都平安。
【51题详解】
在电话用语中,当对方打电话找自己时,表明“我就是(接电话的人)”常用“This is...speaking.”,这里是Sally回应Tom找她,所以用This is Sally speaking.
【52题详解】
根据下文Sally回答“At eleven last night? I was outside with my family.”可知,Tom问的是昨晚十一点Sally在做什么,用过去进行时“What were you doing...”来询问过去某个具体时间点正在做的事情。
【53题详解】
Sally说昨晚十一点和家人在外面,Tom感到疑惑,所以询问为什么在外面,用Why were you outside?
【54题详解】
Sally告知Tom昨晚发生了地震,Tom出于关心询问他们是否都还好,用Are you all OK?
【55题详解】
Sally说“Safety always comes first.”,Tom表示认同,所以用I agree with you.

Do you often feel stressed when exams are coming? You are not alone. Many students experience this. However, too much pressure can harm your health and lower your performance. Here are some healthy ways to manage study pressure.
First, make a realistic study plan. Break your big goal, like “study for the final exam,” into smaller tasks, such as “review Chapter 1 today.” This makes the work seem less overwhelming. Use a planner or a calendar app to keep track of your progress. When you finish a task, tick it off. This gives you a sense of achievement.
Second, find time to relax. Your brain cannot work non-stop. Take short breaks every 40-50 minutes of study. During the break, you can do some light stretching, listen to music, or look out of the window. Also, make sure you get enough sleep, especially before the exam day. A tired mind cannot think clearly.
Third, talk about your feelings. Don’t keep your worries to yourself. Share them with your parents, teachers, or good friends. Sometimes, just talking about it can make you feel much better. They may also offer useful advice or just listen to you, which is very supportive.
Finally, remember that exams are important, but they are not the only measure of your ability or your future. Do your best in preparation, but try to keep a positive attitude. Tell yourself, “I have prepared well, and I will try my best.”
根据短文内容,选择最佳答案。
11. What is the passage mainly about?
A. How to get high scores in every exam. B. How to make friends with teachers.
