四、阅读理解
A 信息匹配
Four students meet different writing problems when finishing their teenage growth stories. Match each student with the most suitable writing tip.
45. Tony: ______
My story is full of simple sentences without clear order. I mix up the time sequence of events, and readers cannot follow my experience step by step. I don’t know how to arrange my story logically.
46. Amy: ______
My writing only records what I did, without any inner thoughts or real feelings. My article is dry and boring, and my teacher said it lacks personal touch and emotion.
47. Jack: ______
I always write too many useless daily small details. My story becomes too long, and the key turning-point moment is hidden among unimportant daily events.
48. Sara: ______
I’m afraid to show my real weaknesses in the story. I only write my success and hide my mistakes, fear and self-doubt, so my story looks unreal and empty.
A. Cut down useless daily details. Keep only events closely connected with your turning point. Make your key growing experience stand out in the whole passage.
B. Use time expressions like “at first, later, finally” to organize your story. List all events in time order before writing to avoid confusion.
C. Don’t hide your true feelings. Write down your fear, worry or embarrassment honestly. Real emotion makes your story touching and believable.
D. Add your inner thoughts to every event. Record how you felt and what you learned at that time to make your article full of personal feelings.
E. Draw a simple timeline on paper before writing. It can help you count paragraphs and control the total word count of your story.

Teenage Brain and Our Daily Decision-making
Scientists have carried out lots of research on teenage brains in recent years. They find that the teenage brain is only 80 percent fully developed. The frontal lobe, which controls judgement, self-control and decision-making, is the last brain part to finish growing. This explains why teenagers are easily influenced by peer pressure and risky activities.
When teenagers face different choices, their brains pay more attention to fun and excitement rather than long-term bad results. For example, if your classmates invite you to play mobile games instead of reviewing lessons, your brain will first think about the pleasure of playing, ignoring the bad influence on your exam grades. Adults’ brains work differently: they will weigh advantages and disadvantages carefully before making a choice.
Many parents complain that their kids make silly decisions without thinking twice. However, experts say it is not teenagers’ fault. Their natural brain structure decides such thinking habits. It does not mean teens can never make wise choices. With training and proper guidance, we can improve our ability to judge things properly day by day.
School peer counseling groups provide special training to help students make better decisions. The training teaches students to stop for three minutes before taking action and ask themselves three guiding questions: What bad results will happen if I do this? Is this choice good for my long-term future? Will I regret this decision later? These simple questions slow down impulsive thinking and push teenagers to think calmly.
Some students hold the wrong idea that good judgement will come naturally as they grow older, but experts correct this opinion. The ability to make smart decisions is a skill that needs daily practice. You can practice it in small daily choices: choosing to finish homework first before watching short videos, refusing dangerous activities suggested by classmates, or communicating patiently with parents instead of arguing. Every small choice helps your frontal lobe grow stronger, and you will become a more thoughtful person step by step.
49. How much of the teenage brain has fully developed?
A. 100% B. 80% C. 60% D. 40%
50. What functions does the frontal lobe control?
A. Only happy feelings B. Study speed and memory
C. Judgement and self-control D. Sports ability and hobbies
51. Why do teens prefer exciting activities without thinking about long-term results?
A. Their brains focus more on fun instead of long-term influences
B. Teachers and parents never give them useful life suggestions
C. They want to make all their classmates happy
D. They don’t know bad results will appear later
52. What three guiding questions does the decision-making training ask students to think about?
A. Time, money and friends B. Results, future influence and possible regret
C. Grades, hobbies and family relations D. Teachers, counselors and parents’ advice
53. Which statement is TRUE according to the passage?
A. Teenagers will automatically get good judgement when they grow up
B. Daily small choices can train students to make wiser decisions
C. Parents should take full blame for teens’ bad choices
D. Peer counselors cannot help improve students’ decision skills
五、完形填空
Write Your Own Unique Growth Story
Every teenager has a special turning point that completely changes their mind and personality. Hans Christian Andersen’s difficult teenage days taught him to hold his dream firmly, and we can also ____54____ valuable life lessons from our own daily experiences.
Many students feel unsure when they start writing growth stories. They believe their daily life is too common to write, and nothing impressive ever happens to them. This wrong idea ____55____ them from recording their true inner feelings, so their articles become empty and boring. In fact, small ordinary moments can also carry deep meaning. A peaceful talk with parents, a failed competition, or a warm encouraging word from a friend can all be your special growing-up moment.
Last term, a school peer counselor shared a student’s article with our whole class. The writer used to be extremely afraid of speaking in public. Every time the teacher asked him to share ideas in class, he would ____56____ his head and keep silent without a word. One day, his deskmate encouraged him to try a one-minute short speech. Though his hands shook and he forgot several sentences, he finished the whole talk bravely. This small success slowly built up his confidence. In his story, he wrote down every nervous thought and the great joy after finishing the speech, which moved all the readers in our class.
When you write your story, do not only record simple events. You should also write down your inner changes. Andersen turned his loneliness and pain into wonderful fairy tales, and we can turn our own troubles into precious writing materials too. Hard experiences will not ____57____ our growth; instead, they leave unforgettable marks on our life path.
If you meet negative feelings such as fear or self-doubt, do not hide them in your writing. Real growth includes both success and failure. Learn to ____58____ all your feelings and write them down honestly. Using time expressions to organize your story can also make your passage clearer and easier to follow for readers.
Writing growth stories is not just a boring school task. It is a warm way to look back on who you used to be and ____59____ a better self in the future. Too many teenagers ignore their small progress and only care about big success. If you pay attention to every tiny change in yourself, you will find your own unique and wonderful teenage story.
All your life experiences together ____60____ your special teenage life. Pick up your pen, record your growth, and you will know yourself better than ever before.

A Turning Point in My Teenage Life
Last month’s class public speech competition became an important turning point in my teenage life. Before the competition, I was extremely afraid of speaking in front of crowds. My hands always shook and my mind went blank once all classmates turned their eyes to me. I planned to give up the competition at first to avoid embarrassment.
Luckily, our class peer counsellor talked with me patiently after class. She told me to write down my true ideas and practice my speech every evening. I followed her advice and repeated my speech hundreds of times. On competition day, I still felt nervous, but I finished my speech smoothly and won the third prize.
This experience completely changed me. I used to refuse all public activities out of fear, but now I dare to share my opinions freely in class. I learn that fear is never a good reason to give up. Small efforts and brave tries can help us break our limits and become better versions of ourselves.
