Focus on mental health
At some point in life, many people suffer a mental disturbance (心理干扰). While most people get over it, for others it doesn’t go away easily.
Oct 10 was World Mental Health Day. This year, the theme was “Young People and Mental Health in a Changing World”: The World Health Organization says that about 20% of children and teenagers around the world suffer from mental illness. It’s thought that the number of children and teenagers with mental illness around the world will increase by half by 2020. It will become one of the main reasons for illnesses and even death.
In China, the picture isn’t bright, either. About 30 million Chinese children and teenagers under the age of 17, or 10% of children and teenagers in China, have a mental health challenge, reported China Daily. Also, according to China Daily, Chinese people don’t seek help for their mental problems. They fear that others will think less of them if they let people know that they are in trouble.
Young people who don’t seek help for their condition may be creating problems for themselves in the future. Jagannath Lamichhane, a mental health expert in Nepal (尼泊尔), warned that. “If we hide our mental health, it may remain a problem forever.”
“My message for young people is, if you feel something is wrong within you—seek help,” he told NPR.
23. About ________ of children and teenagers suffer from mental illness in the world.
A. 10% B. 17% C. 20% D. 30%

A. the picture is dark B. the future is not clear C. the situation is great D. the situation is not good
25. According to Jagannath Lamichhane, ________.
A. people shouldn’t pay attention to mental illness B. people shouldn’t hide mental illness
C. people should forget about mental health D. people shouldn’t tell others their mental problems
26. What’s the passage mainly about?
A. Children and teenagers who suffer a mental disturbance. B. Forgetting mental problems.
C. How to deal with bullying. D. How to be healthy and eat well.

阅读下面材料,从方框中所给的A—E五个选项中选择正确的选项 (其中一项是多余选项),并回答最后一题。
Hug a Tree
We know that spending time in nature reduces (降低) stress and improves our mood (情绪). We also know that the act of hugging ourselves or another living thing can improve our well-being. So, why not try to mix the two together? That’s exactly what hugging a tree does! ____31____
Breathe fresh air.
It is well known that trees produce oxygen (氧气). So, when you are close to a tree and hug it in a forest, you are naturally in a more oxygen-rich environment. You are also more likely to be breathing in fewer pollutants (污染物), especially if the forest or woods are away from a main road or airline flight path.
____32____
One study found that when we experience nature, whether by hiking in nearby mountains or simply looking at trees and birds on the way to work, we can lower the risks of many heart-related diseases.
Fight against depression (抑郁).
Trees’ positive effects on our mental health have been well recorded. Researchers are even calling trees nature’s Prozac, which is used to treat the illness of depression. When you hug a tree, you become grounded to its powerful roots, receiving energy that can help to fight depression year-round.
____33____
Trees are one of nature’s greatest stress-reducers. A study reported that hugging a tree for only 21 seconds can lead to a rise in oxytocin (催产素). The higher the level of oxytocin, the calmer and happier you may be. This is effective for people who suffer from nervousness and worry.
____34____ Find a tree and give it a hug. Get over your fear of embarrassment. So what if passers-by laugh at you? The hug you give is not just to the tree but to yourself and your spirit.
A. Reduce stress. B. Treating a cold. C. Improve heart health.
D. If you don’t have a tree in your yard, go visit the local park or hike in the closest woodlands.
E. Read on to learn more about the benefits of hugging a tree!
5. How do you deal with your stress? And why? (At least 15 words.)
______________________________________________35______________________________________________
【答案】31. E 32. C 33. A 34. D
35. I deal with stress by taking a walk in the park because being close to nature helps me relax and clear my mind.
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了拥抱树木对健康的好处。
【31题详解】
根据“So, why not try to mix the two together? That’s exactly what hugging a tree does!”和下文可知,前文提及拥抱树木,下文介绍拥抱树木的好处。由此可知空处应是总起句,选项E“继续阅读以了解更多关于拥抱树木的好处”符合语境。故选E。
【32题详解】
根据“One study found that when we experience nature…we can lower the risks of many heart-related diseases.”可知,本段重点说明拥抱树木对心脏健康的益处,选项C“改善心脏健康”概括了该段内容。故选C。
【33题详解】
根据“Trees are one of nature’s greatest stress-reducers...”可知,本段讨论树木的减压作用。选项A“减轻压力”概括了该段内容。故选A。
【34题详解】
根据“Find a tree and give it a hug…The hug you give is not just to the tree but to yourself and your spirit.”可知,找到一棵树拥抱它,这种拥抱不仅是给树的,也是给你自己和精神的。由此可知,此处鼓励读者实践,选项D“如果你院子里没有树,可以去当地公园或最近的林地徒步”提供了具体行动建议,与上下文衔接自然。故选D。
【35题详解】
本题答案不唯一,言之有理即可。故填I deal with stress by taking a walk in the park because being close to nature helps me relax and clear my mind.

【解析】
【导语】本文讲述了Luca过去因父母总拿他和姐姐比较而心情低落,后来在美术老师Smith夫人的帮助下,通过绘画比赛证明自己,最终改善与父母关系的故事。
【51题详解】
句意:他们总是把他和他的姐姐比较,所以Luca感到很沮丧。前文“didn’t get on well”“always compared”均为一般过去时,描述过去发生的事情,前后时态一致,故此处用feel的过去式felt。
【52题详解】
句意:后来,Luca想向父母展示他能做得和他姐姐一样好。此处修饰动词do,需用副词,good是形容词,其副词形式为well,“as well as”为固定搭配,意为“和……一样好”。
【53题详解】
句意:在Smith夫人的帮助下,Luca的技能提高了很多。“with the help of sb”为固定搭配,意为“在某人的帮助下”,此处特指Smith夫人的帮助,故需加定冠词the。
【54题详解】
句意:她建议Luca参加一个绘画比赛。“advise sb to do sth”为固定搭配,意为“建议某人做某事”,故此处用动词不定式to join。
【55题详解】
句意:与你父母沟通的最好方式是向他们证明你自己。此处修饰名词parents,需用形容词性物主代词,you的形容词性物主代词为your,意为“你的”。
【56题详解】
句意:Luca很高兴,因为他获得了一等奖。此处作系动词was的表语,需用形容词,joy是名词,其形容词形式为joyful,意为“高兴的、快乐的”。
【57题详解】
句意:当他把奖品带回家时,他的父母感到很震惊。此处描述父母的感受,需用-ed结尾的形容词,shock的形容词形式shocked,意为“感到震惊的”(修饰人)。
【58题详解】
句意:他们俩都为Luca感到骄傲。“feel proud of sb”为固定搭配,意为“为某人感到骄傲”,故此处填介词of。
【59题详解】
句意:而且,他们理解了Luca的感受,并决定再也不把Luca和他的姐姐比较了。“make a decision”为固定搭配,意为“做决定”,此处需用名词,decide是动词,其名词形式为decision。
【60题详解】
句意:现在,Luca和他父母之间的关系比以前好多了。“between...and...”为固定搭配,意为“在……和……之间”,故此处填连词and。

Focus on mental health
At some point in life, many people suffer a mental disturbance (心理干扰). While most people get over it, for others it doesn’t go away easily.
Oct 10 was World Mental Health Day. This year, the theme was “Young People and Mental Health in a Changing World”: The World Health Organization says that about 20% of children and teenagers around the world suffer from mental illness. It’s thought that the number of children and teenagers with mental illness around the world will increase by half by 2020. It will become one of the main reasons for illnesses and even death.
In China, the picture isn’t bright, either. About 30 million Chinese children and teenagers under the age of 17, or 10% of children and teenagers in China, have a mental health challenge, reported China Daily. Also, according to China Daily, Chinese people don’t seek help for their mental problems. They fear that others will think less of them if they let people know that they are in trouble.
Young people who don’t seek help for their condition may be creating problems for themselves in the future. Jagannath Lamichhane, a mental health expert in Nepal (尼泊尔), warned that. “If we hide our mental health, it may remain a problem forever.”
“My message for young people is, if you feel something is wrong within you—seek help,” he told NPR.

26. What’s the passage mainly about?

C. How to deal with bullying. D. How to be healthy and eat well.
Ancient art doesn’t have to be boring. Technology in the 21st century can help to bring it to life by combining the best of the old and the new. Scientists digitized (数码化) the famous painting Along the River During the Qingming Festival by Chinese artist Zhang Zeduan.
Along the River During the Qingming Festival
The original painting shows life during the Northern Song period and it includes many details of ancient Chinese customs, lifestyles and technology.
_________ Farmers work in the fields, sailors move around their boats and people eat and do business in restaurants. Parts of the background are also animated (做成动画). You can see the wind blowing through the trees and across the water. These animations perfectly combine modern technology and ancient art.
Digital technology allows today’s artists to express their ideas in ways that ancient artists would not believe possible. Techniques such as animation and 3D digital projection (投影) make art come alive.
Dunhuang Cave Paintings
Dunhuang Caves, which are protected as ancient treasures in the Gobi desert in Northwest China, are filled with paintings and sculptures with lasting value. This artwork was created over a period of around 1,000 years.
The good news is for art lovers who cannot travel and for the caves. Scientists have created a 360-degree, 3D digital projection of the caves, which makes the artwork come alive. There is also a function that lets viewers zoom in and enjoy the paintings and sculptures in greater detail.
Digitizing ancient art allows us to explore the ancient practices. It also makes the whole world understand the art while protecting the original artworks for the future.

阅读下面材料,从方框中所给的A—E五个选项中选择正确的选项 (其中一项是多余选项),并回答最后一题。
Hug a Tree
We know that spending time in nature reduces (降低) stress and improves our mood (情绪). We also know that the act of hugging ourselves or another living thing can improve our well-being. So, why not try to mix the two together? That’s exactly what hugging a tree does! ____31____
Breathe fresh air.
It is well known that trees produce oxygen (氧气). So, when you are close to a tree and hug it in a forest, you are naturally in a more oxygen-rich environment. You are also more likely to be breathing in fewer pollutants (污染物), especially if the forest or woods are away from a main road or airline flight path.
____32____
One study found that when we experience nature, whether by hiking in nearby mountains or simply looking at trees and birds on the way to work, we can lower the risks of many heart-related diseases.
Fight against depression (抑郁).
Trees’ positive effects on our mental health have been well recorded. Researchers are even calling trees nature’s Prozac, which is used to treat the illness of depression. When you hug a tree, you become grounded to its powerful roots, receiving energy that can help to fight depression year-round.
____33____
Trees are one of nature’s greatest stress-reducers. A study reported that hugging a tree for only 21 seconds can lead to a rise in oxytocin (催产素). The higher the level of oxytocin, the calmer and happier you may be. This is effective for people who suffer from nervousness and worry.
____34____ Find a tree and give it a hug. Get over your fear of embarrassment. So what if passers-by laugh at you? The hug you give is not just to the tree but to yourself and your spirit.
A. Reduce stress. B. Treating a cold. C. Improve heart health.
D. If you don’t have a tree in your yard, go visit the local park or hike in the closest woodlands.
E. Read on to learn more about the benefits of hugging a tree!
