Relatives from all over the country would come to visit. The adults would get together in the living room, around the kitchen table and on the front porch (门廊) to talk and catch up on each other’s lives. All of the kids would be sent out in the front yard to play. Those were the days before video games and smartphones appeared, so we often ended up playing a good old-fashioned game of tag (捉人游戏). I remember one of those times especially. I was the youngest and smallest of all the kids there, so I got caught first and couldn’t catch anyone else. Although I tried my best to chase after my brothers and cousins, they were all too fast for me. I grew sadder and sadder. I finally lunged at (扑向) one of my brothers and fell my face first into the dirt. I got up with tears in my eyes. Then I saw one of my cousins standing there. She started to run but was going much slower than before. I easily caught up with her. Then she turned to me, smiled and said, “I’m it! You’d better run!” I ran off laughing happily while she turned and started to chase one of my older brothers. I see now how her act of kindness that day saved me from sadness and brought me joy. It didn’t matter that we hardly ever saw each other. We are family and she loves me. We are all one. We all belong to each other and we are one big, beautiful family. 38.

It first appeared in the Song Dynasty and got popular during the Ming Dynasty. The two sides of Ma Mian Qun are pleated (起褶的), and there is a smooth part in the middle, commonly known as “Ma Mian”. Why is it called “Ma Mian”? In fact, “Ma Mian” is a kind of structure (结构) used for protection in the city wall system. However, all the books about Ma Mian Qun only show that the smooth surface without pleats in the middle is called “Ma Mian”. But there is no further explanation of how Ma Mian Qun got its name. Ma Mian Qun is colorful, mostly red and blue. Red means good luck and joy. According to Han customs, women usually wore red skirts during celebrations of festivals. In the Qing dynasty, blue was also common and popular, paired with black and yellow. Ma Mian Qun has different kinds of pictures with different meanings. For example, dragon and phoenix pictures show the love between a man and a woman or a beautiful marriage. Peony (牡丹) is a symbol of wealth and honor. Recently, Ma Mian Qun has become a popular form of skir t for Hanfu fans. More and more modern fashion designers (设计师) find ideas from Ma Mian Qun. For example, some get ideas from the patterns. Some combine (结合) the styles of Ma Mian Qun with T- shirts or blouses, which are more suitable for everyday wear. Even western fashion has been influenced by Ma Mian Qun for many years. 43. What’s the theme of the first paragraph?. A. The history of Ma Mian Quan B. The influence of Ma Mian Quan C. The ways of wearingMa Mian Quan D. The steps of making Ma Mian Quan 44.

Which of the following is true? A. We have known how Ma Mian Qun got its name. B. Ma Mian Qun has also influenced western fashion. C. People in the Ming Dynasty first wore Ma Mian Qun. D. In the Han Dynasty, women always wore blue during festivals. 47. On which website (网站) may we read this passage? A. www. chinadaily. com. cn/sports B. www. chinadaily. com. cn/culture C. www. chinadaily. com. cn/music D. www. chinadaily. com. cn/health D Have you ever noticed that kids seem to learn new things faster than adults? Well, it’s true! A new study shows that kids do pick up new knowledge and skills faster than grown-ups. This happens because of a special chemical (化学物质) in the brain called GABA. It helps the brain remember newly learned things. While other studies have tested GABA levels (水平) in children, this study looked at GABA levels before, during, and after learning in kids aged 8 to 11, and compared them to GABA levels in adults aged 18 to 35. Scientists from the US and Germany studied how kids and adults learn by checking their brains. They provided visual (视觉的) training and tested how well people learned. They saw that children’s brains quickly made more GABA while learning, and this extra (额外的) GABA stayed for a while after the learning. But in adults, the levels of GABA did not change at all. “We found that children learned much more rapidly than adults. It agrees with the common belief that children are better at learning new things,” said Dr. Sebastian Frank, one of the scientists from Germany. “Our results also point to GABA as a key player in helping kids learn faster.” Scientists hope to use these findings to help adults learn better, too. In the future, they may develop a new technology to increase GABA levels in adults’ brains to help them learn faster! 48. How does the writer start the passage? A. By telling a story. B. By making a report. C. By raising a question. D. By giving an example. 49. What does GABA help the brain do? A. Make good decisions. B. Remember new things. C. Relax with a good sleep. D. Forget unimportant things. 50. What did the scientists probably do to test how well people learned? A. They played music for them. B. They let them share opinions. C. They showed pictures to them. D. They asked them to take notes. 51. What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. What the scientists found in the study. B. How the scientists did the study. C. Why the scientists did the study. D. Why the study is important. 52. Why did the writer write the passage? A. To encourage adults to learn more new things. B. To explain why adults are better at learning than kids. C. To introduce a study on why kids learn faster than adults. D. To teach people how to increase GABA levels in their brain.

Relatives from all over the country would come to visit. The adults would get together in the living room, around the kitchen table and on the front porch (门廊) to talk and catch up on each other’s lives. All of the kids would be sent out in the front yard to play. Those were the days before video games and smartphones appeared, so we often ended up playing a good old-fashioned game of tag (捉人游戏). I remember one of those times especially. I was the youngest and smallest of all the kids there, so I got caught first and couldn’t catch anyone else. Although I tried my best to chase after my brothers and cousins, they were all too fast for me. I grew sadder and sadder. I finally lunged at (扑向) one of my brothers and fell my face first into the dirt. I got up with tears in my eyes. Then I saw one of my cousins standing there. She started to run but was going much slower than before. I easily caught up with her. Then she turned to me, smiled and said, “I’m it! You’d better run!” I ran off laughing happily while she turned and started to chase one of my older brothers. I see now how her act of kindness that day saved me from sadness and brought me joy. It didn’t matter that we hardly ever saw each other. We are family and she loves me. We are all one. We all belong to each other and we are one big, beautiful family. 38.

Well, it’s true! A new study shows that kids do pick up new knowledge and skills faster than grown-ups. This happens because of a special chemical (化学物质) in the brain called GABA. It helps the brain remember newly learned things. While other studies have tested GABA levels (水平) in children, this study looked at GABA levels before, during, and after learning in kids aged 8 to 11, and compared them to GABA levels in adults aged 18 to 35. Scientists from the US and Germany studied how kids and adults learn by checking their brains. They provided visual (视觉的) training and tested how well people learned. They saw that children’s brains quickly made more GABA while learning, and this extra (额外的) GABA stayed for a while after the learning. But in adults, the levels of GABA did not change at all. “We found that children learned much more rapidly than adults. It agrees with the common belief that children are better at learning new things,” said Dr. Sebastian Frank, one of the scientists from Germany. “Our results also point to GABA as a key player in helping kids learn faster.” Scientists hope to use these findings to help adults learn better, too. In the future, they may develop a new technology to increase GABA levels in adults’ brains to help them learn faster! 48. How does the writer start the passage? A. By telling a story. B. By making a report. C. By raising a question. D. By giving an example. 49. What does GABA help the brain do? A. Make good decisions. B. Remember new things. C. Relax with a good sleep. D. Forget unimportant things. 50. What did the scientists probably do to test how well people learned? A. They played music for them. B. They let them share opinions. C. They showed pictures to them. D. They asked them to take notes. 51. What’s Paragraph 4 mainly about? A. What the scientists found in the study. B. How the scientists did the study. C. Why the scientists did the study. D. Why the study is important. 52. Why did the writer write the passage? A. To encourage adults to learn more new things. B. To explain why adults are better at learning than kids. C. To introduce a study on why kids learn faster than adults. D. To teach people how to increase GABA levels in their brain. 【答案】48. C 49. B 50. C 51. A 52.

Some of them may have a great influence on us. The most important change in my life is that I used to be shy but now I have become more confident. In primary school, I was afraid of speaking in public. I always kept silent in class and avoided answering questions. However, my teacher encouraged me to join the school’s English speech contest. I practiced every day and finally stood on stage. To my surprise, I finished the speech successfully. From this change, I learned that courage comes from taking the first step. Facing our fears bravely helps us grow. This experience made me believe in myself and changed my life. 【解析】 【详解】写作步骤 [第一步：审题立意] 确定文体：记叙文/成长变化类文章，以一般过去时和一般现在时为主 明确要点：最重要的变化是什么、从变化中学到了什么 确定人称：第一人称（I）为主 注意事项：不得出现真实的人名、地名和校名，需涵盖所有要点 [第二步：构思布局] 三段式结构： 开头段：已给出，引出变化话题，点明最重要的变化（性格变化） 主体段：描述变化前后的对比及关键事件 结尾段：分享从中学到的道理 [第三步：要点展开] 要点一：点明变化 变化内容：used to be shy but now confident/from quiet to outgoing/from lazy to hard-working等 表达句式：The most important change is that.../I used to...but now...等 要点二：过去的状态 描述：afraid of speaking in public/kept silent in class/avoided answering questions/lacked confidence等 要点三：转变的契机 契机：teacher encouraged me to join the speech contest/a friend helped me/realized I needed to change等 行动：practiced every day/prepared carefully/took the first step等 要点四：转变的结果 结果：stood on stage/finished the speech successfully/felt proud of myself等 感受：to my surprise/I felt confident for the first time等 要点五：学到的道理 道理：courage comes from taking the first step/facing fears helps us grow/believe in yourself等 影响：changed my life/made me stronger/helped me face challenges bravely等 要点六：备选变化主题 学习变化：used to hate math but now enjoy it/worked harder and got better grades等 习惯变化：used to stay up late but now sleep early/health improved等 社交变化：used to have few friends but now have a close group等 技能变化：learned to play an instrument/do sports/communicate better等 第1页/共1页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
