When you have problems with your parents, you are not alone. Many teenagers argue with their parents because of study, hobbies and friends.
The main reason is the generation gap. Teenagers want to be independent, while parents always worry about their kids and want to control their choices. Also, heavy study pressure makes teenagers easy to get angry.
To solve the problem, you should communicate with your parents often. Share your feelings and listen to their advice. Try to understand each other instead of arguing. Good communication is the best way to get on well with family.
56. What is the problem many teenagers have?
A. They can’t make friends at school B. They often argue with their parents
C. They have no time to relax D. They don’t like studying at all

A. 代沟 B. 友谊 C. 合作 D. 爱好
58. What is the best way to get on well with parents?
A. Arguing with them B. Never talking to them C. Good communication D. Doing nothing at all
B
Reading is a good habit for all students. It can not only open our eyes to the world, but also improve our language skills. However, many teenagers spend too much time on phones and less time reading books.
Reading classic books is especially helpful. Classic works teach us about history, culture and life wisdom. When we feel stressed or tired, reading can calm our minds and relax ourselves.
It’s a good idea to make a reading plan. Read for at least 30 minutes every day. Choose books that are educational and meaningful. Keep reading, and you will grow into a knowledgeable person.
59. What is the main idea of the passage?
A. How to make reading plans. B. The importance of reading.

Once upon a time, an old woman had two large water pots. Each hung on the end of a pole (杆子) which she carried across her neck. One of the pots had a crack (裂纹) in it while the other pot was perfect.From the river to the house, the cracked pot arrived only half full. And the other pot was always full. The perfect pot took pride in its talent. But the poor cracked pot felt sad for its own disadvantages.
One day by the river the cracked pot said to the woman, “I feel bad about myself, because the crack in me causes water to come out all the way back to your house.”
The old woman smiled and said, “Why are there flowers on your side of the road, but not on the other pot’s side? That’s because I have always known about your crack. So I planted flowers on your side of the road, and every day while we walk back, you water them. For two years I have been able to pick these beautiful flowers to decorate my house. There would not be this beauty without you. Each of us has our own cracks. But the cracks make our lives so interesting and beautiful.”
So, to all the cracked pot friends, have a great day and remember to smell the flowers on your side of the road!
62. If each of the two pots could be filled with 20 kilos of water, the woman would probably get ________ kilos of water from the river to the house.
A. 10 B. 20 C. 30 D. 40
63. How did the cracked pot feel about itself at first ?
A. Proud. B. Happy. C. Excited. D. Ashamed (惭愧的).
64. The underlined word “disadvantages” means ________.
A. 缺陷 B. 过失 C. 笨拙 D. 才能
65. What can we learn from the story?

C. Early bird catches worms first D. Everyone has a talent.
D
Most people graduate from school and then get a job. Everyone wants a job that pays well. How much money can you make? Ask yourself these questions: What can I do? What skills do I have? Also ask yourself: How much education do I have? For most jobs, the higher your education, the higher your earning power.
In the United States, high school graduates make about $18,600 a year. If you do not finish high school, you make only $10,800 a year. You can make $7,800 more each year by staying in high school!
If you stay in school, then you can make more money. A person with a high school degree makes about $18,600 a year. If that person goes to college and gets a bachelor’s degree (学士学位), he can make $42,000. With a master’s degree (硕士学位), he can make about $53,000. If the person gets a PhD (博士学位), he can make almost $79,000 or more a year.
We can learn a very important thing from this information. If you want to work and make more money, get a good education.
66. The passage mainly talks about ________.
A. how education and pay are connected B. high paying jobs
C. jobs for high school students D. good schools
67. The writer thinks that a high school graduate usually makes more money than ________.
A. a university graduate B. a person who gets a PhD

When was the last time you gave or received a hug? Do your parents hug you before you go to school? In western countries, it is quite common to greet close friends or relatives with a hug.
You might hug your teammates after winning a basketball game. If your friends are having a bad day, you can hug them to cheer them up. Friends who haven’t seen each other for a long time will usually hug each other when meeting.
Of course, people in different countries have different opinions when it comes to hugging. After coming to China, I’ve noticed that people are generally more reluctant (不情愿的) to hug than they are in my home country, the US.
My Chinese friends told me that hugging is considered to be very intimate (亲密的) in their culture. It usually only happens between people who are really close to each other, like couples. Chinese people don’t usually hug in public, either.
But people’s attitudes (态度) towards hugging can also change. I remember watching a video story about a “hugging party” that was held in Shanghai. A local artist held the party, inviting strangers and asking them to hug each other.
The Chinese participants (参与者) clearly looked uncomfortable. However, after the party, several of them changed their minds. They decided that hugging doesn’t have to be awkward (令人尴尬的) and can actually be quite nice. So next time you see your mom or dad, give them a hug-see how it makes you feel.
69. What usually happens between good friends when meeting in western countries?
A. Hugging. B. Nodding. C. Shaking hands. D. Bowing.
70. In Chinese culture, hugs usually happen between ________.
A. friends B. classmates C. couples D. strangers
71. What did people do at the “hugging party”?
A. They were invited to hug each other. B. They watched a video about hugging.
C. They told stories about hugging. D. They were taught about hugging.
72. The writer wrote the last paragraph to ________.
A. encourage people to be nice to strangers
B. explain why people feel uncomfortable while hugging
C. show how people can change their minds about hugging
D. tell the reason why people need to hug each other
第二节 阅读下面短文,并用英语回答问题(请注意每小题的词数要求)
Many people like animals. Now a lot of people keep animals as pets. Usually people like to keep dogs, cats, fish and other small animals. Many young people keep animals because they think these animals are interesting. Some old people keep pets because they don’t live with their children and they feel lonely.
Pets can make people happy. They can play with people. They can help people do some things. For example, dogs can help people look after the house.
But keeping pets needs money and time. You need to feed them, clean their houses and take them for a walk every day.
73. Why do many young people keep animals? (不超过10个词回答)
____________________

C
Once upon a time, an old woman had two large water pots. Each hung on the end of a pole (杆子) which she carried across her neck. One of the pots had a crack (裂纹) in it while the other pot was perfect.From the river to the house, the cracked pot arrived only half full. And the other pot was always full. The perfect pot took pride in its talent. But the poor cracked pot felt sad for its own disadvantages.
One day by the river the cracked pot said to the woman, “I feel bad about myself, because the crack in me causes water to come out all the way back to your house.”
The old woman smiled and said, “Why are there flowers on your side of the road, but not on the other pot’s side? That’s because I have always known about your crack. So I planted flowers on your side of the road, and every day while we walk back, you water them. For two years I have been able to pick these beautiful flowers to decorate my house. There would not be this beauty without you. Each of us has our own cracks. But the cracks make our lives so interesting and beautiful.”
So, to all the cracked pot friends, have a great day and remember to smell the flowers on your side of the road!
62. If each of the two pots could be filled with 20 kilos of water, the woman would probably get ________ kilos of water from the river to the house.

63. How did the cracked pot feel about itself at first ?

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文,讲述了一位老妇人用一只完好的水罐和一只裂了缝的水罐挑水的故事。裂缝的水罐因自己漏水而自卑,老妇人却点破,正是它漏出的水浇灌了路边的鲜花,让生活变得美好。
【62题详解】
根据文章第一段可知,完美的水罐是满的(20公斤),有裂纹的水罐只有一半水(20÷2=10公斤)。因此,老太太从河边带回家的水总量大约是20+10=30公斤。
【63题详解】
根据文章第一段“But the poor cracked pot felt sad for its own disadvantages”以及第二段“I feel bad about myself”可知,有裂纹的壶最初因为自己的裂纹漏水而感到难过和自卑。Ashamed意为“惭愧的”,符合语境。
【64题详解】
根据划线词所在句子“But the poor cracked pot felt sad for its own disadvantages”以及上文提到的“had a crack”(有一个裂纹),可知这里的disadvantages指的是壶上的裂纹或缺点。选项A“缺陷”符合文意。
【65题详解】
文章通过老太太利用裂纹壶漏出的水浇灌路边花朵的故事,告诉我们即使有缺陷也有其独特的价值。最后一段提到“Each of us has our own cracks. But the cracks make our lives so interesting and beautiful”,意在说明每个人都有自己的长处或价值。选项D“每个人都有才能”最符合故事寓意。
D
Most people graduate from school and then get a job. Everyone wants a job that pays well. How much money can you make? Ask yourself these questions: What can I do? What skills do I have? Also ask yourself: How much education do I have? For most jobs, the higher your education, the higher your earning power.
In the United States, high school graduates make about $18,600 a year. If you do not finish high school, you make only $10,800 a year. You can make $7,800 more each year by staying in high school!
If you stay in school, then you can make more money. A person with a high school degree makes about $18,600 a year. If that person goes to college and gets a bachelor’s degree (学士学位), he can make $42,000. With a master’s degree (硕士学位), he can make about $53,000. If the person gets a PhD (博士学位), he can make almost $79,000 or more a year.
We can learn a very important thing from this information. If you want to work and make more money, get a good education.
66. The passage mainly talks about ________.
A. how education and pay are connected B. high paying jobs

【导语】本文主要通过列举美国不同教育程度人群的年收入数据,论证了“教育程度越高,收入水平越高”的规律,点明良好教育是获得更高收入的前提。
【66题详解】
通读全文可知,文章通过列举美国不同学历(高中、本科、硕士、博士等)对应的年收入数据,主要阐述了教育程度与收入之间的关系,即学历越高,收入越高。
【67题详解】
根据文章第一段“For most jobs, the higher your education, the higher your earning power.”可知对于大多数工作,教育程度越高,赚钱能力越强;以及第二段“In the United States, high school graduates make about $18,600 a year. If you do not finish high school, you make only $10,800 a year.”可知,高中毕业生年收入高于未完成高中学业的人。C选项“只读完小学的人”属于未完成高中学业的范畴,学历低于高中毕业生,因此高中毕业生比他们赚得多。
【68题详解】
根据文章第三段“If the person gets a PhD, he can make almost $79,000 or more a year.”可知博士学位的人年收入约为79,000 美元;第二段“If you do not finish high school, you make only $10,800 a year.”说明未完成高中学业的人年收入是10,800美元;计算两者差额:79,000-10,800=68,200美元。即表示拥有博士学位的人每年可以比未完成高中学业的人多赚68,200美元。

When was the last time you gave or received a hug? Do your parents hug you before you go to school? In western countries, it is quite common to greet close friends or relatives with a hug.
You might hug your teammates after winning a basketball game. If your friends are having a bad day, you can hug them to cheer them up. Friends who haven’t seen each other for a long time will usually hug each other when meeting.
Of course, people in different countries have different opinions when it comes to hugging. After coming to China, I’ve noticed that people are generally more reluctant (不情愿的) to hug than they are in my home country, the US.
My Chinese friends told me that hugging is considered to be very intimate (亲密的) in their culture. It usually only happens between people who are really close to each other, like couples. Chinese people don’t usually hug in public, either.
But people’s attitudes (态度) towards hugging can also change. I remember watching a video story about a “hugging party” that was held in Shanghai. A local artist held the party, inviting strangers and asking them to hug each other.
The Chinese participants (参与者) clearly looked uncomfortable. However, after the party, several of them changed their minds. They decided that hugging doesn’t have to be awkward (令人尴尬的) and can actually be quite nice. So next time you see your mom or dad, give them a hug-see how it makes you feel.
69. What usually happens between good friends when meeting in western countries?
A. Hugging. B. Nodding. C. Shaking hands. D. Bowing.
70. In Chinese culture, hugs usually happen between ________.
A. friends B. classmates C. couples D. strangers
71. What did people do at the “hugging party”?
A. They were invited to hug each other. B. They watched a video about hugging.
C. They told stories about hugging. D. They were taught about hugging.
72. The writer wrote the last paragraph to ________.
A. encourage people to be nice to strangers
B. explain why people feel uncomfortable while hugging
C. show how people can change their minds about hugging
D. tell the reason why people need to hug each other
【答案】69. A 70. C 71. A 72. C
