That’s exactly what makes them so exciting. A. Nothing B. Everything C. Something D. Anything 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：关于体育运动没有什么事是给傻瓜准备的。那正是它们如此令人兴奋的原因。 Nothing没什么；Everything每件事；Something某事；Anything任何事。根据后句“That’s exactly what makes them so exciting.”可知，体育令人兴奋通常是因为其具有不确定性或并非简单易懂，此处需填具有否定意义的不定代词来构成符合逻辑的语境，Nothing符合题意。 2. After hearing the sports concert, an enormous smile spread ________ his face. A. through B. between C. among D. across 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：听完体育音乐会后，一个大大的笑容在他脸上展开。 through表示“从……内部穿过”；between表示“在两者之间”；among表示“在三者或三者以上之中”；across表示“从物体表面穿过、横跨”。根据“his face”可知，笑容是从脸的一边蔓延到另一边，是在表面上的扩散，across符合语境。 3. You can’t eat an elephant all at once. Eat it one bite ________. A. at once B. at a time C. all the time D. at the same time 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：你不可能一下子吃掉一头大象。一次吃一口。 at once立刻；at a time一次，每次；all the time一直，总是；at the same time同时。根据前句“You can’t eat an elephant all at once.”“Eat it one bite”可知不能一次性完成，即每次一口。 4. —When did your father go out? —I’m not sure, but he ________ go too far. His tea is still hot. A. can’t B. must C. might D. should 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你父亲什么时候出去的？——我不确定，但他不可能走太远。他的茶还是热的。 根据“His tea is still hot.”可知父亲刚离开不久，推测他不可能走太远，表示否定推测用can’t。 5. The school has made ________ a must to organize interesting activities during the 15-minute break according to the new education reform (改革). A. this B. that C. it D. them 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：根据新的教育改革，学校必须在15分钟的休息时间组织有趣的活动。 考查it作形式宾语。this这个；that那个；it它 ；them它们。made后面缺少宾语，用it作形式宾语，不定式作真正的宾语。故选C。 6. ________ the development of the cities, the living conditions of people there are getting better and better. A. By B. With C. Under D. For 【答案】B 【解析】 【详解】句意：随着城市的发展，那里的人们的生活条件变得越来越好。 By通过；With随着；Under在……下面；For为了。根据“…the development of the cities”可知，固定搭配with the development of…意为“随着……的发展”，此处表示伴随城市的发展，生活条件改善。应填With。 7.

A. is; are B. is; is C. are; is D. are; are 【答案】A 【解析】 【详解】句意：这家工厂的工人数量是1200人，其中许多人来自农村。 “The number of+复数名词”表示“……的数量”，谓语动词用单数形式（is）；“a number of+复数名词”表示“许多……”，谓语动词用复数形式（are）。 8. —What are you going to do with the old photos? —I’ll look through them and ________ some to keep. A. cut out B. check out C. clear out D. pick out 【答案】D 【解析】 【详解】句意：——你打算怎么处理这些旧照片？——我会浏览它们并挑选一些留下来。 cut out剪下，删除；check out查看，结账离开；clear out清理，清除；pick out挑选，选出。根据“look through them”和“some to keep”可知是要从中选出一些保存，pick out符合语境。 9. He has made ________ that his progress in English is very great. A. such a great progress B. so a great progress C. such great progress D. so great progress 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：他取得了如此大的进步，以至于他的英语进步非常大。 progress（进步）是不可数名词，没有复数形式，前面不能加不定冠词。当名词是不可数名词或可数复数名词时，只能用such，不能用so，固定结构“such+形容词+不可数名词+that…”意为“如此……以至于……”，故填such great progress。 10.

Visitors say the people in the place are friendly and helpful. D. Jiangyan is a wonderful place that is worth visiting. 【答案】C 【解析】 【详解】句意：以下哪一个句子与其他句子的从句不同？ Haimen is a beautiful place which has a long history海门是一个历史悠久的美的地方（which引导定语从句）；Anyone who comes to Haimen can taste the local food任何来海门的人都能品尝当地美食（who引导定语从句）；Visitors say the people in the place are friendly and helpful游客说这个地方的人们友好且乐于助人（省略that的宾语从句）；Jiangyan is a wonderful place that is worth visiting姜堰是一个值得游览的美的地方（that引导定语从句）。A、B、D三项中的从句均为定语从句，修饰前面的名词；C项中的从句是宾语从句，作say的宾语。因此C项与其他三项不同。 13.

He taught me to face my fears, Take each day as it comes, For there are things that we can’t change. He would say what’s done is done. He would say hold your head up high, Carry yourself with pride.

Many still argue about the power of talent. Some claim that people are born great sportsmen, while others say it is only through devotion and hard work that they achieve their goals. Arguably though, it is not until their talents are recognized by the public that they truly have greatness thrust upon them. With this acknowledgement of their “true worth” come all the trappings of modern-day celebrity: money, power, influence and responsibility. Whether we like it or hate it, modern-day sportsmen are role models of children everywhere, and these children will grow up alike, like it or not, imitating their lives to copying their idols. It is hard to stay above all this for sportsmen. To this fascination, particularly with the great influence of the media, it is more important for these sportsmen to shoulder their responsibility. In the past few months alone, there have been many examples of questionable behaviors from sports icons. Sport stars of the present day are often mirroring the very worst aspects of society, a fact that the self-righteous (自以为是的) anger of the modern press has been quick to point out. It would be wrong for us to expect sportsmen to be saints. It would also be wrong for us to think that their behavior is clearly different from the sportsmen they grew up watching, but with the all-seeing eye of modern media, it is a different world, and different standards must be expected. Of course, there is no duty for sportsmen to be good role models. There are no prison sentences, no fines, no community service—unless their behaviors are illegal. Unless they break the law, it is entirely up to them as to whether or not they think their behavior is proper. Furthermore, measuring the true influence their decisions have on their followers is absolutely impossible. Some will rise against their idols, seeing them in a new light and not accepting their actions. Others may copy their heroes’ actions, using them as a shield (盾牌) when accused of (控告) the same crimes. It is undeniable that the actions of sportsmen will influence the lives of those who worship (崇拜) them. Modern-day sportsmen are almost ideals of today’s world, and their actions are watched carefully by millions all over the world. Some may complain against it, denying their influence on these children’s lives. Others may be aware of it but not respect it, while many both may be aware of it and respect it. In a word, you do not choose whether you are a role model. All you can do is to decide how to act when greatness is thrust upon you. 31. In Paragraph 1, the author tries to stress ________. A. the core characteristic to become great sportsmen nowadays B. sportsmen become great when their gifts are recognized by people C. different ways for sportsmen to achieve success and greatness D. sportsmen achieve greatness through their devotion and efforts 32. The underlined phrase “thrust upon” most probably means ________. A. forced on B. removed from C. related to D. pulled off 33. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To advise the media to choose proper events to report. B. To inform the public that sportsmen are no role models. C. To argue that sportsmen should not be expected as heroes. D. To remind the sportsmen of their social responsibilities. 【答案】31. B 32. A 33. D 【解析】 【导语】本文讨论了现代体育明星的成就与责任，指出他们往往在天赋被公众认可后才被“赋予”伟大，并分析了作为榜样所面临的社会责任和媒体压力。 【31题详解】 根据第一段最后一句“Arguably though, it is not until their talents are recognized by the public that they truly have greatness thrust upon them.”可知，作者在此处强调的是公众认可对于运动员获得“伟大”身份的重要性。 【32题详解】 根据最后一段“In a word, you do not choose whether you are a role model.”可知，成为榜样往往是被动的。结合语境“All you can do is to decide how to act when greatness is thrust upon you.”，此处应表示伟大是“被强加”或“被迫接受”的。forced on意为“强加于”，符合文意。 【33题详解】 文章第二段提到“it is more important for these sportsmen to shoulder their responsibility”，最后一段总结虽然运动员无法选择是否成为榜样，但应决定如何行动。全文通过论述运动员的社会影响力，旨在提醒运动员注意自身言行，承担相应的社会责任。 D ①Are you avoiding pain or living with purpose? There are two ways we can take in any given situation: one is the path of avoiding pain in the moment, and the other is the more difficult path of delaying (推迟) pleasure for a bigger purpose. ②Some people don’t see the value in having patience during difficult times or working toward a goal; they want to lose weight now and would rather buy the latest, greatest mobile phones than saving for retirement (退休). We often make our life choices according to how we can avoid pain in the moment and, in doing so, fail to see that the path of delayed gratification (满足) is sometimes where the real solutions to our problems lie. ③Studies show that delayed gratification is one of the most important personal qualities of successful people. People who learn how to manage their need to be satisfied develop more in their jobs, relationships and health than people who give in to it. ④A well-known study done at Stanford University in the 1960s explains a lot about why it’s beneficial (有益的) to delay gratification. In the study, children were placed in a room with one marshmallow (棉花软糖) on a plate. The lead researcher gave the children an easy instruction: You can eat the marshmallow now, or wait 15 minutes and get two marshmallows. The researchers found that the children who were able to wait for the second marshmallow without eating the first one scored higher on standardized tests, had better health, and were less likely to have behavior problems. ⑤Delaying gratification isn’t a new concept. It was presented many years ago, which can even be dated back to 300 B.C. Aristotle saw that the reason why so many people were unhappy was that they mixed up pleasure for true happiness. ⑥True happiness, according to Aristotle, is about developing habits and staying with yourself with people who grow your soul. This allows you to move toward your greatest natural ability. True happiness needs delaying pleasure, and putting in the time, discipline, and patience required to achieve a goal instead of feeling good now. ⑦A life of purpose, together with the seeking of true happiness, creates real joy. It keeps your happiness pretty steady (稳定的) throughout your life. So, which path would you like to take? 34. What can we know from the passage? A. Avoiding pain in the moment is more difficult. B. We often make choices based on how we can stay away from pain right now. C. Delayed gratification is the most necessary personal qualities of successful people. D. According to the study, people who delay gratification probably have behavior problems. 35. What does the underlined word “concept” in Paragraph ⑤ probably mean? A. 计划 B. 意思 C. 选择 D. 概念 36. According to the passage, which of the following situations is an example of delayed gratification? A. Finish all your homework first on the weekend, then go out to play with friends. B. Save money for the bike you want, and spend your pocket money on snacks and toys right away. C. Review for 30 minutes every day to get good final exam grades, while playing on the phone through short videos for 30 minutes every day too. D. Buy the favorite game skin with your pocket money right away, although you might have no money for meals in the next few weeks. 37. What’s the structure of this passage? A. ①|②③ | ④⑤⑥ |⑦ B. ① |② | ⑤ |③④ | ⑥ |⑦ C. ① |②③④ | ⑤⑥| ⑦ D. ① |② |③ | ④⑤ |⑥⑦ 【答案】34. B 35. D 36. A 37. C 【解析】 【导语】本文探讨了人们在生活中常面临的两条路：逃避当下的痛苦或延迟满足以追求更大的目标。通过研究和哲学观点，说明延迟满足是成功和真正幸福的关键，最后引导读者做出选择。 【34题详解】 根据第二段“We often make our life choices according to how we can avoid pain in the moment”可知，我们经常根据如何避免当下的痛苦来做选择。 【35题详解】 第五段“Delaying gratification isn’t a new concept. It was presented many years ago, which can even be dated back to 300 B.C.” 意为“延迟满足不是一个新概念，它很多年前就被提出了，甚至可以追溯到公元前300年。” 结合上下文，“concept”指的是“延迟满足”这一想法或观念。选项“概念”最贴切。其他选项“计划”“意思”“选择”均不符合语境。 【36题详解】 根据第一段“one is the path of avoiding pain in the moment, and the other is the more difficult path of delaying pleasure for a bigger purpose.”和第六段“True happiness needs delaying pleasure, and putting in the time, discipline, and patience required to achieve a goal instead of feeling good now.”可知，延迟满足是指先完成困难任务再享受。A项先完成周末作业再出去玩符合这一原则。 【37题详解】 文章第一段总起（①）；第二、三、四段阐述延迟满足的价值（②③④）；第五、六段追溯历史哲学观点（⑤⑥）；第七段总结（⑦）。因此结构为① / ②③④ / ⑤⑥ / ⑦。 第Ⅱ卷（主观题 共50分） 四、词汇运用（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分） (A) 根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出单词的正确形式。 38.

Babies are so cute but it is ________ (累人的) to take care of them. 【答案】tiring 【解析】 【详解】句意：婴儿很可爱，但是照顾他们也累人的。 本句中it是形式主语，真正主语是“照顾婴儿这件事”，描述事件的性质，tiring形容词，表示“累人的”，描述事件的性质。因此填tiring。 41. To deal with the ________ (压力) on the economy, banks ________ (鼓励) people not to borrow money. 【答案】 ①. pressure ②. encourage 【解析】 【详解】句意：为了应对经济上的压力，银行鼓励人们不要借钱。第一空根据汉语提示“压力”，应填名词pressure，作deal with的宾语。第二空根据汉语提示“鼓励”，应填动词encourage，主语banks为复数，时态为一般现在时，故用原形encourage。 42. ________ (无论什么) difficulties you may face, please be brave and chase your dream forever. 【答案】Whatever 【解析】 【详解】句意：无论你面临什么困难，请勇敢并永远追逐你的梦想。根据汉语提示“无论什么”，此处应填whatever，引导让步状语从句，相当于no matter what。句首首字母大写。故填Whatever。 (B) 根据句意，写出括号内所给单词的正确形式。 43. Most toothbrushes have been ________ (special) designed for use by disabled people. 【答案】specially 【解析】 【详解】句意：大多数牙刷是专门为残疾人设计的。此处需要修饰动词designed，修饰动词要用副词，形容词special的副词形式是specially，表示“专门地、特别地”，符合语境。 44.

If you want to improve your ________ (pronounce), you’d better practise your oral English every day. 【答案】pronunciation 【解析】 【详解】句意：如果你想提高你的发音，你最好每天练习英语口语。根据空格前的形容词性物主代词your可知，此处需要填入一个名词。pronounce是动词，其名词形式为pronunciation。故填pronunciation。 46. The Italians knew the greatest ________ (music) addresses and visited them one by one. 【答案】musicians’ 【解析】 【详解】句意：意大利人知道最伟大的音乐家们的地址，并逐一拜访了它们。括号内给出的单词为music，是名词，意为“音乐”。此处修饰名词addresses，需要用表示人的名词的所有格形式；根据语境“visited them one by one”可知，这里指多位音乐家，因此先将music变为表示“音乐家”的musician，再用其复数形式musicians的所有格musicians’，表示“音乐家们的”，符合语法结构与语境要求。 47. Do you know who is the ________ (wealth) of the twins, Tom or Jack? 【答案】wealthier 【解析】 【详解】句意：你知道双胞胎中谁更有钱吗，汤姆还是杰克？“of the twins, Tom or Jack”表示两者之间的比较，需用比较级，wealth的形容词是wealthy，比较级是wealthier，其后省略了名词或代词one。 五、动词填空（用括号内所给动词的适当形式填空） 48. We would rather ________ (finish) the task today than put it off until tomorrow. 【答案】finish 【解析】 【详解】句意：我们宁愿今天完成任务，也不愿推迟到明天。“would rather do sth. than do sth.”是固定搭配，意为“宁愿做某事而不愿做某事”，此处需用“finish”的动词原形。 49. While the tourists ________ (ride) along Jiangyin Road, it suddenly began to snow heavily. 【答案】were riding 【解析】 【详解】句意：当游客们正沿着江阴路骑行时，突然下起了大雪。括号内给出的单词为ride，是动词，意为“骑行”。while引导时间状语从句时，强调主句动作发生时，从句动作正在进行；主句用一般过去时（began），从句应用过去进行时；主语the tourists是复数，因此用were riding，符合语法结构与语境要求。 50. Tom contacted all the teachers ________ (announce) the ban on playing computer games. 【答案】to announce 【解析】 【详解】句意：汤姆联系了所有老师，宣布禁止玩电脑游戏。announce“宣布”，为动词。此处需要不定式作目的状语，表示联系老师的目的，故填to announce。 51. The high-speed railway connecting Nantong and ________ (complete) this year hopefully. 【答案】will be completed 【解析】 【详解】句意：连接南通和（某地）的高铁有望在今年建成。主语是“The high-speed railway”（高铁），它与动词“complete”（完成）之间是被动关系（高铁被建成），时间状语“this year hopefully”（有望在今年）表示将来的时间，将来时的被动语态结构为will be+过去分词，故填will be completed。 52. —Who will be the winner of the competition? —Nobody can know the winner ________ (announce) tomorrow morning. 【答案】to be announced 【解析】 【详解】句意：—— 谁会是比赛的获胜者？—— 直到明天早上宣布结果，没人能知道获胜者是谁。 句中“winner”与“announce”之间是被动关系，且表示将来要发生的动作，因此使用动词不定式的被动形式“to be announced”作后置定语，修饰“the winner”，表示“将要被宣布的（获胜者）”。 53. —I didn’t see you speak much during the summer holiday. —I went to Xiamen on 1st August. I ________ (stay) there for two weeks. 【答案】stayed 【解析】 【详解】句意：——暑假期间我没怎么见到你。——我8月1号去了厦门，在那里待了两周。句中的didn’t和went都表明时态为一般过去时，因此动词stay需使用过去式stayed。 54. Though both sides have made much effort, the differences are too great and they ________ (reach) no agreement yet. 【答案】have reached 【解析】 【详解】句意：尽管双方都付出了很多努力，但分歧太大，他们至今尚未达成协议。时间状语“yet”（至今）是现在完成时的标志词，常用于否定句和疑问句，主语“they”指代双方，与“reach agreement”（达成协议）是主动关系，句意表示“到目前还没有达成”，是否定形式，现在完成时的结构为have/has+过去分词，主语“they”对应“have”，故填have reached。 55. My parents had the washing machine ________ (repair) last week since it didn’t work from time to time. 【答案】repaired 【解析】 【详解】句意：因为我父母的洗衣机时不时出故障，他们上周请人修理了它。repair“修理”，为动词。此处考查“have+宾语+过去分词”结构，表示请别人做某事，过去分词作宾语补足语，故填repaired。 56. Full attention must be paid to ________ (develop) good habits so that we can learn English well. 【答案】developing 【解析】 【详解】句意：必须充分注意培养好习惯，这样我们才能学好英语。pay attention to中的to是介词，后接动名词，意为“注意做某事”，develop的动名词是developing。 57. Make your decision as soon as possible. The companies that interviewed you ________ (expect) your reply. 【答案】are expecting 【解析】 【详解】句意：尽快做出你的决定。面试过你的那些公司正在等你的回复。expect“期望；等待”，根据前句“Make your decision as soon as possible.”可知，这些公司此刻正在等着你的回复，表示说话时正在进行的动作，应用现在进行时（be + doing）。主语“The companies”为复数，be动词用are，故填are expecting。 六、阅读与回答问题（每小题2分，满分10分） 请认真阅读下面短文，并根据短文内容回答问题，每题答案不超过5个词。 The actor Christopher Reeve is best known as the star of four Superman movies. However, something terrible happened to him on May 27, 1995. His head landed first and badly hurt when he was thrown from his horse in an accident. Reeve’s life totally changed by doctors, but the fighting against his hard life just began. As a man who would never be able to do anything below his neck, breathe without help from a machine, or do any physical activity on his own again, he faced a completely different life. During the first year, Reeve felt like he had lost all hope. He wished that he was dead and even thought of ending his own life. It was only because of the support of his wife, family and friends that he found the hope and courage to live again. By putting his heart into learning everything he could about his injuries, he also did exercises. Reeve never lost his goal of getting back on his feet, but he made great progress. Shortly after, he tried to return to his acting work by directing, producing, and even starring in films. He also wrote a book about his experience and returned to his charity work. Reeve became an energetic supporter for disabled people and raised money in support of medical research. “What I do is based on powers we all have inside us and you don’t have to be a ‘superman’ to do it.” His story encouraged many people who were stuck in illness. “With the progress of new medical research, I’m confident that people like me would be able to walk again one day. So you can see. I’m too busy with living to think about giving up!” Reeve’s fighting came to an end on October 10, 2004, at the age of 52.

Try not to make suds (泡沫). ❖ Next, ask an adult to slowly pour some drops of isopropyl alcohol down the side of the cup so that it sits on top of the salty soapy water.

C A character in Shakespeare’s plays once said, “Some are born great, some achieve greatness, and some have greatness thrust upon them.” Any of these could apply to today’s sportsmen. Many still argue about the power of talent. Some claim that people are born great sportsmen, while others say it is only through devotion and hard work that they achieve their goals. Arguably though, it is not until their talents are recognized by the public that they truly have greatness thrust upon them. With this acknowledgement of their “true worth” come all the trappings of modern-day celebrity: money, power, influence and responsibility. Whether we like it or hate it, modern-day sportsmen are role models of children everywhere, and these children will grow up alike, like it or not, imitating their lives to copying their idols. It is hard to stay above all this for sportsmen. To this fascination, particularly with the great influence of the media, it is more important for these sportsmen to shoulder their responsibility. In the past few months alone, there have been many examples of questionable behaviors from sports icons. Sport stars of the present day are often mirroring the very worst aspects of society, a fact that the self-righteous (自以为是的) anger of the modern press has been quick to point out. It would be wrong for us to expect sportsmen to be saints. It would also be wrong for us to think that their behavior is clearly different from the sportsmen they grew up watching, but with the all-seeing eye of modern media, it is a different world, and different standards must be expected. Of course, there is no duty for sportsmen to be good role models. There are no prison sentences, no fines, no community service—unless their behaviors are illegal. Unless they break the law, it is entirely up to them as to whether or not they think their behavior is proper. Furthermore, measuring the true influence their decisions have on their followers is absolutely impossible. Some will rise against their idols, seeing them in a new light and not accepting their actions. Others may copy their heroes’ actions, using them as a shield (盾牌) when accused of (控告) the same crimes. It is undeniable that the actions of sportsmen will influence the lives of those who worship (崇拜) them. Modern-day sportsmen are almost ideals of today’s world, and their actions are watched carefully by millions all over the world. Some may complain against it, denying their influence on these children’s lives. Others may be aware of it but not respect it, while many both may be aware of it and respect it. In a word, you do not choose whether you are a role model. All you can do is to decide how to act when greatness is thrust upon you. 31. In Paragraph 1, the author tries to stress ________. A. the core characteristic to become great sportsmen nowadays B. sportsmen become great when their gifts are recognized by people C. different ways for sportsmen to achieve success and greatness D. sportsmen achieve greatness through their devotion and efforts 32. The underlined phrase “thrust upon” most probably means ________. A. forced on B. removed from C. related to D. pulled off 33. What is the main purpose of the passage? A. To advise the media to choose proper events to report. B. To inform the public that sportsmen are no role models. C. To argue that sportsmen should not be expected as heroes. D. To remind the sportsmen of their social responsibilities. D ①Are you avoiding pain or living with purpose? There are two ways we can take in any given situation: one is the path of avoiding pain in the moment, and the other is the more difficult path of delaying (推迟) pleasure for a bigger purpose. ②Some people don’t see the value in having patience during difficult times or working toward a goal; they want to lose weight now and would rather buy the latest, greatest mobile phones than saving for retirement (退休). We often make our life choices according to how we can avoid pain in the moment and, in doing so, fail to see that the path of delayed gratification (满足) is sometimes where the real solutions to our problems lie. ③Studies show that delayed gratification is one of the most important personal qualities of successful people. People who learn how to manage their need to be satisfied develop more in their jobs, relationships and health than people who give in to it. ④A well-known study done at Stanford University in the 1960s explains a lot about why it’s beneficial (有益的) to delay gratification. In the study, children were placed in a room with one marshmallow (棉花软糖) on a plate. The lead researcher gave the children an easy instruction: You can eat the marshmallow now, or wait 15 minutes and get two marshmallows. The researchers found that the children who were able to wait for the second marshmallow without eating the first one scored higher on standardized tests, had better health, and were less likely to have behavior problems. ⑤Delaying gratification isn’t a new concept. It was presented many years ago, which can even be dated back to 300 B.C. Aristotle saw that the reason why so many people were unhappy was that they mixed up pleasure for true happiness. ⑥True happiness, according to Aristotle, is about developing habits and staying with yourself with people who grow your soul. This allows you to move toward your greatest natural ability. True happiness needs delaying pleasure, and putting in the time, discipline, and patience required to achieve a goal instead of feeling good now. ⑦A life of purpose, together with the seeking of true happiness, creates real joy. It keeps your happiness pretty steady (稳定的) throughout your life. So, which path would you like to take? 34. What can we know from the passage? A. Avoiding pain in the moment is more difficult. B. We often make choices based on how we can stay away from pain right now. C. Delayed gratification is the most necessary personal qualities of successful people. D. According to the study, people who delay gratification probably have behavior problems. 35. What does the underlined word “concept” in Paragraph ⑤ probably mean? A. 计划 B. 意思 C. 选择 D. 概念 36. According to the passage, which of the following situations is an example of delayed gratification? A. Finish all your homework first on the weekend, then go out to play with friends. B. Save money for the bike you want, and spend your pocket money on snacks and toys right away. C. Review for 30 minutes every day to get good final exam grades, while playing on the phone through short videos for 30 minutes every day too. D. Buy the favorite game skin with your pocket money right away, although you might have no money for meals in the next few weeks. 37. What’s the structure of this passage? A. ①|②③ | ④⑤⑥ |⑦ B. ① |② | ⑤ |③④ | ⑥ |⑦ C. ① |②③④ | ⑤⑥| ⑦ D. ① |② |③ | ④⑤ |⑥⑦ 第Ⅱ卷（主观题 共50分） 四、词汇运用（本大题共10小题，每小题1分，共10分） (A) 根据句意和汉语注释，在答题卡对应题号的横线上，写出单词的正确形式。 38.
