Dear Victor,
I have received your loving letter from school and I am glad to know that you are becoming responsible (有责任的) enough to decide on your career.
You are now in the final year of high school and are going to start further education in college. You know that we belong to different times, and my social life is different from yours. However, all I can say as advice is that you must choose a career wisely. The first consideration is your interest. You can only succeed and feel happy when you do something you enjoy. You must get a job which not only provides you with something useful, but also you are pleased with. Then, you must read a lot in the field you are aiming at. Also, you should get to know the men and women who work in that field. When mind and heart work together, success is inevitable.
No career is more or less important. I think your interest may be in the field of making TV programmes. Your good communication skills, your taking an active part in school plays and the prizes you have won in speech competitions all lead you to that direction. So a career in Mass Communication and TV Film Production will bring luck to you. If you succeed in that field, you will become famous and rich.
Think a thousand times before making any final decision about your career. After all, we want you to be a man of success.
We all know that you are old enough to think for yourself. With all the best wishes!

Dear Jordan,
Sometimes I feel the loneliness within me. It’s not that I don’t have friends— quite the opposite, actually, and that’s what makes it so strange. Even though I am surrounded by a crowd of people, I find it hard to fit in with them. What should I do?
Harry
Dear Harry,
I’ve received your letter and see what you’re saying. Feeling lonely in a crowd may seem strange, but it’s actually very common. Even though we may have loved ones, friends and others around us, it’s still possible to feel completely lonely.
There are several reasons for this. Maybe we feel out of touch with those around us or fear that they don’t or won’t understand what we are going through. No matter why we feel lonely around others, it’s important to know that this is a feeling we can overcome.
Before giving you advice, I suggest that you think about what you’re trying to get out of social activities. Are you lonely and looking for companionship? Are you feeling down and looking for emotional support? Are you trying to make new friends or connect more with the friends you already have?
As you think about how you’re feeling and what you’re looking for, you’ll be able to learn how to meet your needs and build better connections with others. For example, going to a party can be a great way to meet new people and have lighthearted fun. Or if you’re looking for deeper emotional support, you might want to hang out with just one or two people who you know really well.
Here are some tips you can use to strengthen your present connections and make new ones.
Firstly, try to spend time with friends and loved ones. Make plans, put time on your calendar and give them a call. Checking in on each other, spending time together, and giving and receiving support can improve your present connections.
Another suggestion is to find a group of people with common interests. If possible, try to find something in person, such as a book club or a board game meetup.
It would also be a good idea to look for chances to connect online. If you can’t find anything in person, consider joining online communities like Facebook groups, Reddit forums, or support groups.
Last but not least, it’s important to get comfortable with feeling lonely on your path out of loneliness. Wherever you’re along that road, I hope my suggestions can help you.
Jordan
1.What can we learn about Harry’s social life?
A.He refuses to join in group activities. B.He has friends but still feels lonely.
C.He feels actually happy to stay alone. D.He never connects with his friends.
2.What does Jordan think about feeling lonely in a crowd?
A.It often happens to people without friends. B.It is a rare feeling that needs special help.
C.It is a common problem that can be solved. D.It appears only when people feel unhappy.
3.To get deeper emotional support, Harry may ________.
A.make plans for later meetings B.join online communities only
C.spend time with trusted people D.give no support to loved ones
4.Which of the following best shows Jordan’s attitude towards Harry’s problem?
A.Supportive. B.Unclear. C.Doubtful. D.Worried.

Recent reports show that more teens feel sad or hopeless compared with ten years ago. a________ In his new book How We Grow Up: Understanding Adolescence, journalist Matt Richtel explores the reasons behind teen stress and how adults can help.
One reason why teens feel more stressed is that they have still-developing brains and think too much about what’s happening around them. b________ At the same time, they face a fast-changing world full of information—from school, friends, and online. This can lead to overthinking and worry. Many people blame (责备) phones as the main cause of their stress. Too much screen time can indeed be harmful. But it’s not the only reason. That’s why simply taking away teens’ phones won’t solve this situation. What’s more important is helping them to find a balance—getting enough sleep, staying active, and having face-to-face conversations.
The teenage years are a time of big change, and this change itself is another cause of stress. c________ During this time, young people start to move from depending on their parents to being independent (独立的). This change is natural and necessary for growing up, but it can also bring stress—teens may not know how to make choices by themselves or they may worry that they can’t do things well. This worry makes them question what their parents and teachers have taught them. The process makes them feel quite stressed.
That is why help from parents is so important. Sometimes, teens may feel down even in loving homes because emotions (情绪) are hard to understand. Just like an adult might get stressed at work, teens can feel too stressed to deal with many small things together. Understanding this can help parents be supportive. d________ In this way, parents can be good guides for their children.
In short, mental health challenges in teens come from a mix of still-developing brains, the world around them, and the stress of growing up in a fast-changing world. To help with these problems, we shouldn’t just blame phones or be too strict with them. Instead, what matters is listening carefully, staying close to them, and guiding them with care and understanding.
1.What is more important for teens according to Paragraph 2?
A.Becoming more independent. B.Finding a healthy life balance.
C.Staying away from their phones. D.Dealing with emotional challenges.
2.What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A.What else brings teens stress and worries. B.Why teens become independent of parents.
C.How teens deal with stress from their parents. D.Why teens question what they’ve been taught.
3.It is better to put “Open talks and patience can build trust.” in ________.
A.a B.b C.c D.d
4.How is the passage organized? (①=Paragraph 1, ②=Paragraph 2, ③=Paragraph 3, ④=Paragraph 4, ⑤=Paragraph 5)
A. B. C. D.

Let’s start with a powerful saying from poet John Mark Green, “Toxic people (有毒人) attach themselves like cinder blocks (煤渣块) tied to your ankles, and then invite you for a swim in their poisoned (有毒的) waters.” “Toxic relationships” sound pretty bad, don’t they? Yet many of us continue to stay in toxic friendships. Some of us realize it, while some of us do not.
So how do you know whether a friendship is toxic or not? Here are 3 signs to help you.
________ Generally, when you share your achievements with those around you, they are happy for you. However, toxic friends may act jealously (妒忌地). They may show happiness for your success in front of you but not feel it inside. They try to weaken your confidence by doubting your abilities and making you think that you don’t deserve your success.
Humiliate (羞辱) you in front of others. Another sign of a toxic friendship is going too far with joking. Among friends, it’s common for one person to laugh at another, and then the other makes a joke back so everyone laughs together. All this is fine, but when the joke starts humiliating the person, that shows a toxic attitude.
Separate you from others. One of the most common things you’ll find in a toxic friendship is that toxic friends might want to control you. They might want to “surveil” all your activities. They might also prevent you from making new friends. You may also be driven far from doing the right things at the right time.
Although it may be hard to let go of a toxic friendship because you’ve invested so much into it, you need to do so. Spend more time with those who truly know and value you.
1.Why does the author mention the powerful saying?
A.To compare true friendships with toxic ones.B.To tell us friendship is something to be valued.
C.To point out the dangers of toxic relationships.D.To explain why people fall into toxic relationships.
2.Which of the following can be put in ________?
A.Break your trust. B.Need all your attention.
C.Always try to put you down. D.No respect for your secrets.
3.Who may be a toxic friend?
A.Peter, who often makes fun of his friend’s looks.
B.Lisa, who sometimes disagrees with her friends.
C.Gina, who always invites her friends to go shopping.
D.Nancy, who likes to compare her grades with her friends.
4.What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?
A.To show readers what true friendship is.
B.To guide readers on how to make true friends.
C.To teach readers to recognize toxic friendships.
D.To provide readers with ways to deal with toxic friendships.

Very often, when we see young people sitting there, looking at the screen of a mobile phone and smiling, we may think nothing is wrong. But when we come to the question “How much time do they actually spend on media (传播媒介) daily?”, the answer is surprising: young people spend about nine hours every day using media, and this only includes media used for enjoyment.
Today’s young people seem to have become crazy multi-taskers. They often use media when doing other activities. Some watch TV when doing homework, some text (发短信), and some others listen to music. But what do young people think of this? A research showed that two thirds of them believed watching TV or texting had no influence on their schoolwork. Half of them thought using social media made no difference. However, researches have given a different answer: “media multi-taskers” did worse in tests.
Scientists did a research among more than 400 students. It shows that those who text a lot have more trouble sleeping and do worse in their study. In another research, students who didn’t text during a lesson took down a lot more notes than those who were texting. A similar research also found that students who texted when doing schoolwork had lower grades. According to a research, if a kid uses social media a lot, especially at night, he or she will sleep worse and feel more nervous and depressed (消沉的). On the one hand, young people stay up late to check messages and information. They may also be woken up by messages they receive. On the other hand, even the light from a screen could influence their sleep. Some other researches also show that children who use media at night go to bed later, get fewer hours of sleep each week, and become sleepy more easily during the daytime.
1.According to the article, young people use media for about ___________ every week.
A.55 hours B.65 hours C.75 hours D.85 hours
2.The underlined word “multi-taskers” in Paragraph 2 refers to people who __________.
A.ask a lot of questions B.use different media for learning
C.have several mobile phones D.do several tasks at the same time
3.Which of the following statements about using media is TRUE?
A.People only use media for enjoyment.
B.Most multi-taskers believed it had a bad influence on them.
C.The results of researches on it are different from young people’s thoughts.
D.Students like to use media to help take more notes during a lesson.
4.What is the article mainly about?
A.Social media is very popular among young people.
B.Using media too much has a bad influence on young people.
C.The use of social media has both advantages and disadvantages.
D.Mobile phones are the main tools students use for school learning.

阅读下面短文,从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Learning can be exciting when you follow your curiosity! Scientists say curious students enjoy studying more. 1 Here are four easy ways to start with.
Ask questions. Always ask “why” when learning something. 2 When learning Chinese, ask why Tang poems remain so popular in modern China. Questions make learning more active and help you understand better.
Learn outside school. Join a community center to learn to play a new sport. 3 Going to a park or a zoo allows you to watch plants and animals carefully to learn about them. Different ways of learning keep your brain excited.
4 Find how school subjects are part of your life. Math helps when you are shopping. English is useful when you travel abroad. Geography can explain weather changes and the environment around us. When you find knowledge is useful, you’ll want to learn more.
Share curious thoughts with others. 5 For example, if you wonder why leaves turn yellow in autumn, chat with your grandma—she might know interesting things! Sharing helps you get new ideas and remember what you learn better.
Start with one way today. You’ll find learning useful. You will also find it enjoyable. Remember, every subject becomes interesting when you’re curious about it
A.Develop reading habits.
B.Connect lessons to real life.
C.Take notes to organize your learning ideas.
D.Visit museums to see what life was like in the past.
E.If you learn about Science, ask why the sky is blue.
F.Talk about what you’re curious about with friends or family.
G.They can find ways to make school subjects more enjoyable.

As a Grade Nine student, you face more stress—like exams, homework, and even small fights with friends. These things often make you feel upset, worried, or angry. But learning to manage your moods isn’t hard; it just takes small, simple steps. Here’s what you can do:
First, stop and “name” your feeling when it appears.
If you’re mad at a classmate who took your notebook, don’t shout right away. Instead, say to yourself: “I’m angry because my things were taken.” 1 This small act helps you take a step back instead of letting your feeling control you.
Second, find a quick way to calm down.
When stress from a math test makes your heart beat fast, try this: take three slow breaths—in through your nose, out through your mouth. 2 You can also keep a small thing with you, like a favorite candy or a photo, to look at when you feel stressed.
Third, talk to someone you trust.
You don’t have to hold all feelings inside. If you’re sad about a bad grade, tell your mom, dad, or a teacher. 3 They might not work out the problem right away, but just listening can make you feel lighter.
Fourth, set a small “mood break” every day.
Between studying and homework, spend 10 minutes doing something you like—listening to a short song, drawing a quick picture, or even just looking out the window. 4 This break lets your brain rest and keeps bad feelings from growing. 5
It’s common to feel worried before a big exam or upset when a friend disappoints you. After all, moods are like the changing clouds—they never stay the same for long.
A.These breaths slow down your heart and help you think clearly.
B.Finally, you don’t need to be worried about having strong moods.
C.Naming your feeling helps you understand what’s really bothering you.
D.For ninth-graders, the only way to reduce stress is to study harder.
E.Doing something fun for a short time can cheer you up quickly.
F.They know you well and can give you advice that fits your situation.
G.Feeling angry or sad means you’re a weak person who can’t handle pressure.

Doing sports is good for our body and mind. Today, exercising through online videos is becoming popular. With the Internet, people can do it anytime, anywhere.
One of my friends, Lin Fei, followed short videos to do daily exercise. “With live (直播) programs, I feel like I am working out with my friends, which encourages me to hold on to the last minute,” she said. Another friend of mine, Michael, told me that working out through videos made him feel comfortable. “I have a fear of working out at the gym (体育馆), because I don’t like being watched by people around me. But working out at home doesn’t make me feel embarrassed (尴尬),” he said.
Hearing about their experiences, I decided to give it a try. When I told my plan to my elder sister, a P. E. teacher, she said that workout videos could be helpful but might still carry some problems.
“Without being with someone in person, you will be less willing to work out to your best. Working out at the gym allows you to have advice in real time and get pushed harder,” my sister said to me. “Well, if you really want to have a try, first, choose proper programs or videos. That’s very important. And then ask your friends for advice. Their experiences can give you a better understanding of what you can expect. Anyway, don’t depend too much on it. You should try some different ways too.”
At her suggestions, I followed an online program for three months, which also offered advice to meet my personal needs. After the first period of training, I felt it very practical and helpful when I put in the right amount of work with a strong will. Compared with going to the gym, using online videos is a much cheaper and time-saving choice. But it can be difficult sometimes when I’m too lazy or too busy to stick with it.
回答下面5个问题,每题答案不超过6个词。
1.Why is exercising through online videos becoming popular now?
2.How does Michael feel about working out through online videos?
3.What does paragraph 4 mainly tell us?
4.What will the writer probably suggest on working out through online videos?
5.Do you like exercising through online videos? Why or Why not?

Do you dream of growing up quickly so you can spend your own money? Making money isn’t just for grown-ups. Kids can do it, too.
Money gives you choices. If you want to buy a better birthday gift for your grandpa, the extra money you make helps.
Money gives you independence. When you make your own money, you don’t have to depend on someone else. 40 yuan that you make by yourself feels a lot better than 160 yuan from your parents.
Making money is also a learning process. It will lead to your success in the future. This includes dealing with money, communicating with other people, using what you’ve learned from textbooks and using your time wisely.
It’s easy to make money if you try:
●Collect soft drink cans. You can sell the cans and use the money for a new basketball. At the same time, you’ll keep the environment cleaner and nicer!
●Make greeting cards. If you are good at drawing, try making special cards. Your friends may want them for special days. You can sell them your cards at a low price if both of you are free.
●Sell used books. You may have some books that you have read, but you don’t want to keep. Then you can sell them to make money.
●Want to be a teacher in the future? Start practicing now. Are you good at maths, reading, or playing musical instruments? You can teach younger children how to get better grades or give them winter music lessons.
What are you good at? What do you like to do? Make sure it’s safe and legal (合法的).
Discuss your ideas with your parents. You need them to say “yes”.

Emotional intelligence, or EQ, is the ability to understand and manage your own feelings and those of others. Unlike IQ, which stays relatively stable throughout life, EQ can be improved with practice. People with high EQ are often successful in both work and relationships.
One key part of EQ is empathy — the ability to put yourself in someone else’s shoes. Empathetic people can sense how others feel and respond with kindness. Another component is self-regulation, which means controlling your impulses and thinking before acting. Self-regulated individuals stay calm under pressure and do not make hasty decisions.
Additionally, social skills are vital for high EQ. Good communicators listen actively, express themselves clearly, and resolve conflicts peacefully. They also inspire trust and cooperation in teams.
To boost your EQ, start by observing your emotional reactions in different situations. Write down what triggers your anger or anxiety. Then, practise deep breathing or counting to ten when you feel overwhelmed. Finally, ask for feedback from trusted friends about how you handle emotions. With consistent effort, you can significantly raise your EQ and enjoy a more fulfilling life.

When difficult people express themselves orally, they usually want at least two things: they are heard and they are understood. As a good communicator should be a good listener, there are five steps towards good listening.
The first step is cooperating (合作). How does a difficult person know that you’re listening and understanding? In fact, it’s through the way you look and sound while he is talking. You may help him to fully express his thoughts and feelings. You do this by nodding your head in agreement, making certain sounds of understanding.
When the person begins to repeat what’s been said, it’s a signal (信号) of step two: turning back. It means that you repeat back some words he is using, sending a clear signal that you’re listening carefully and that you think what he is saying is important.
Having heard what he has to say, the next step is clarifying. At this point, you start to gather information about what is being communicated. Ask some open-ended questions, which will allow you to find out what intention he is hoping to satisfy.
The fourth step is to summarize (概括) what you’ve heard. This allows you to make sure that both you and the difficult person are on the same page. When you do this, two things happen. First, if you’ve missed something, he can fill in the details. Second, if you’ve shown that you’re making an effort to understand completely, this will make it more possible to gain cooperation from him.
Having listened carefully, you’ve now arrived at the point of confirming with the person that he feels satisfied that his thoughts have been fully voiced. Ask if he feels understood.
When enough sincere listening, questioning, and remembering are brought together, understanding is usually achieved and a difficult person becomes less difficult and more cooperative.
Listen to Understand
Reason
Difficult people hope they are heard and 1 when they express themselves.
2 on listening
◆ 3 in agreement and make some sounds of understanding while a difficult person is speaking.
◆Repeat some 4 that you have heard.
◆Collect 5 about the person’s expressions and find out his intention.
◆Summarize what the person has said to 6 the possibility of gaining cooperation from him.
◆ 7 that the person gains satisfaction from speaking his thoughts.
Result
A difficult person will be 8 to cooperate with if understanding is achieved.
Your ideas
What do you think is the importance of being a good listener in life?

Dear Victor,
I have received your loving letter from school and I am glad to know that you are becoming responsible (有责任的) enough to decide on your career.
You are now in the final year of high school and are going to start further education in college. You know that we belong to different times, and my social life is different from yours. However, all I can say as advice is that you must choose a career wisely. The first consideration is your interest. You can only succeed and feel happy when you do something you enjoy. You must get a job which not only provides you with something useful, but also you are pleased with. Then, you must read a lot in the field you are aiming at. Also, you should get to know the men and women who work in that field. When mind and heart work together, success is inevitable.

Dear Jordan,
Sometimes I feel the loneliness within me. It’s not that I don’t have friends— quite the opposite, actually, and that’s what makes it so strange. Even though I am surrounded by a crowd of people, I find it hard to fit in with them. What should I do?
Harry
Dear Harry,
I’ve received your letter and see what you’re saying. Feeling lonely in a crowd may seem strange, but it’s actually very common. Even though we may have loved ones, friends and others around us, it’s still possible to feel completely lonely.
There are several reasons for this. Maybe we feel out of touch with those around us or fear that they don’t or won’t understand what we are going through. No matter why we feel lonely around others, it’s important to know that this is a feeling we can overcome.
Before giving you advice, I suggest that you think about what you’re trying to get out of social activities. Are you lonely and looking for companionship? Are you feeling down and looking for emotional support? Are you trying to make new friends or connect more with the friends you already have?
As you think about how you’re feeling and what you’re looking for, you’ll be able to learn how to meet your needs and build better connections with others. For example, going to a party can be a great way to meet new people and have lighthearted fun. Or if you’re looking for deeper emotional support, you might want to hang out with just one or two people who you know really well.
Here are some tips you can use to strengthen your present connections and make new ones.
Firstly, try to spend time with friends and loved ones. Make plans, put time on your calendar and give them a call. Checking in on each other, spending time together, and giving and receiving support can improve your present connections.
Another suggestion is to find a group of people with common interests. If possible, try to find something in person, such as a book club or a board game meetup.
It would also be a good idea to look for chances to connect online. If you can’t find anything in person, consider joining online communities like Facebook groups, Reddit forums, or support groups.
Last but not least, it’s important to get comfortable with feeling lonely on your path out of loneliness. Wherever you’re along that road, I hope my suggestions can help you.

A.He refuses to join in group activities. B.He has friends but still feels lonely.

Recent reports show that more teens feel sad or hopeless compared with ten years ago. a________ In his new book How We Grow Up: Understanding Adolescence, journalist Matt Richtel explores the reasons behind teen stress and how adults can help.
One reason why teens feel more stressed is that they have still-developing brains and think too much about what’s happening around them. b________ At the same time, they face a fast-changing world full of information—from school, friends, and online. This can lead to overthinking and worry. Many people blame (责备) phones as the main cause of their stress. Too much screen time can indeed be harmful. But it’s not the only reason. That’s why simply taking away teens’ phones won’t solve this situation. What’s more important is helping them to find a balance—getting enough sleep, staying active, and having face-to-face conversations.
The teenage years are a time of big change, and this change itself is another cause of stress. c________ During this time, young people start to move from depending on their parents to being independent (独立的). This change is natural and necessary for growing up, but it can also bring stress—teens may not know how to make choices by themselves or they may worry that they can’t do things well. This worry makes them question what their parents and teachers have taught them. The process makes them feel quite stressed.
That is why help from parents is so important. Sometimes, teens may feel down even in loving homes because emotions (情绪) are hard to understand. Just like an adult might get stressed at work, teens can feel too stressed to deal with many small things together. Understanding this can help parents be supportive. d________ In this way, parents can be good guides for their children.
In short, mental health challenges in teens come from a mix of still-developing brains, the world around them, and the stress of growing up in a fast-changing world. To help with these problems, we shouldn’t just blame phones or be too strict with them. Instead, what matters is listening carefully, staying close to them, and guiding them with care and understanding.
1.What is more important for teens according to Paragraph 2?
A.Becoming more independent. B.Finding a healthy life balance.
C.Staying away from their phones. D.Dealing with emotional challenges.
2.What does Paragraph 3 mainly talk about?
A.What else brings teens stress and worries. B.Why teens become independent of parents.
C.How teens deal with stress from their parents. D.Why teens question what they’ve been taught.
3.It is better to put “Open talks and patience can build trust.” in ________.
A.a B.b C.c D.d
4.How is the passage organized? (①=Paragraph 1, ②=Paragraph 2, ③=Paragraph 3, ④=Paragraph 4, ⑤=Paragraph 5)
A. B. C. D.
【答案】1.B 2.A 3.D 4.A

2.第三段首句“the teenage years...is another cause of stress”点明主旨,接着解释“从依赖父母到独立”这一变化过程本身就会带来压力。选项A“还有什么是导致青少年压力和担忧的因素。”符合本段主旨

4.分析文章结构,①引出问题;②③④分析原因和解决建议(平行结构);⑤总结。选项A所示结构符合。

Let’s start with a powerful saying from poet John Mark Green, “Toxic people (有毒人) attach themselves like cinder blocks (煤渣块) tied to your ankles, and then invite you for a swim in their poisoned (有毒的) waters.” “Toxic relationships” sound pretty bad, don’t they? Yet many of us continue to stay in toxic friendships. Some of us realize it, while some of us do not.
So how do you know whether a friendship is toxic or not? Here are 3 signs to help you.
________ Generally, when you share your achievements with those around you, they are happy for you. However, toxic friends may act jealously (妒忌地). They may show happiness for your success in front of you but not feel it inside. They try to weaken your confidence by doubting your abilities and making you think that you don’t deserve your success.
Humiliate (羞辱) you in front of others. Another sign of a toxic friendship is going too far with joking. Among friends, it’s common for one person to laugh at another, and then the other makes a joke back so everyone laughs together. All this is fine, but when the joke starts humiliating the person, that shows a toxic attitude.
Separate you from others. One of the most common things you’ll find in a toxic friendship is that toxic friends might want to control you. They might want to “surveil” all your activities. They might also prevent you from making new friends. You may also be driven far from doing the right things at the right time.
Although it may be hard to let go of a toxic friendship because you’ve invested so much into it, you need to do so. Spend more time with those who truly know and value you.
1.Why does the author mention the powerful saying?
A.To compare true friendships with toxic ones.B.To tell us friendship is something to be valued.
C.To point out the dangers of toxic relationships.D.To explain why people fall into toxic relationships.
2.Which of the following can be put in ________?
A.Break your trust. B.Need all your attention.
C.Always try to put you down. D.No respect for your secrets.
3.Who may be a toxic friend?
A.Peter, who often makes fun of his friend’s looks.
B.Lisa, who sometimes disagrees with her friends.
C.Gina, who always invites her friends to go shopping.
D.Nancy, who likes to compare her grades with her friends.
4.What is the author’s purpose in writing this passage?
A.To show readers what true friendship is.
B.To guide readers on how to make true friends.
C.To teach readers to recognize toxic friendships.
D.To provide readers with ways to deal with toxic friendships.
【答案】1.C 2.C 3.A 4.C
【导语】本文是一篇说明文,介绍了有毒友谊的三个常见信号,旨在帮助读者识别并远离不健康的人际关系。
【详解】1.根据第一段“Toxic relationships sound pretty bad, don’t they? Yet many of us continue to stay in toxic friendships.”及后文介绍的识别方法,可知作者引用这句有力的话是为了指出有毒友谊的危害。
2.根据第三段“Generally, when you share your achievements with those around you, they are happy for you. However toxic friends may act jealously. They may show happiness for your success in front of you but not feel it inside. They try to weaken your confidence by doubting your abilities and making you think that you don’t deserve your success.”可知,有毒朋友会嫉妒你的成功,试图打击你的信心,“Always try to put you down”(总是试图贬低你)符合这一特征。
3.根据第三段“However toxic friends may act jealously. They try to weaken your confidence by doubting your abilities and making you think that you don’t deserve your success.”和第四段“Humiliate you in front of others. Another sign of a toxic friendship is going too far with joking... when the joke starts humiliating the person, that shows a toxic attitude.”可知,经常取笑朋友外貌的Peter符合有毒朋友的特征。
4.根据第二段“So how do you know whether a friendship is toxic or not? Here are 3 signs to help you.”可知,文章主要介绍了识别有毒友谊的三个信号,目的是教读者如何识别有毒友谊。

Very often, when we see young people sitting there, looking at the screen of a mobile phone and smiling, we may think nothing is wrong. But when we come to the question “How much time do they actually spend on media (传播媒介) daily?”, the answer is surprising: young people spend about nine hours every day using media, and this only includes media used for enjoyment.
Today’s young people seem to have become crazy multi-taskers. They often use media when doing other activities. Some watch TV when doing homework, some text (发短信), and some others listen to music. But what do young people think of this? A research showed that two thirds of them believed watching TV or texting had no influence on their schoolwork. Half of them thought using social media made no difference. However, researches have given a different answer: “media multi-taskers” did worse in tests.
Scientists did a research among more than 400 students. It shows that those who text a lot have more trouble sleeping and do worse in their study. In another research, students who didn’t text during a lesson took down a lot more notes than those who were texting. A similar research also found that students who texted when doing schoolwork had lower grades. According to a research, if a kid uses social media a lot, especially at night, he or she will sleep worse and feel more nervous and depressed (消沉的). On the one hand, young people stay up late to check messages and information. They may also be woken up by messages they receive. On the other hand, even the light from a screen could influence their sleep. Some other researches also show that children who use media at night go to bed later, get fewer hours of sleep each week, and become sleepy more easily during the daytime.
1.According to the article, young people use media for about ___________ every week.
A.55 hours B.65 hours C.75 hours D.85 hours
2.The underlined word “multi-taskers” in Paragraph 2 refers to people who __________.

A.People only use media for enjoyment.
B.Most multi-taskers believed it had a bad influence on them.
C.The results of researches on it are different from young people’s thoughts.
D.Students like to use media to help take more notes during a lesson.
4.What is the article mainly about?
A.Social media is very popular among young people.
B.Using media too much has a bad influence on young people.
C.The use of social media has both advantages and disadvantages.
D.Mobile phones are the main tools students use for school learning.

As a Grade Nine student, you face more stress—like exams, homework, and even small fights with friends. These things often make you feel upset, worried, or angry. But learning to manage your moods isn’t hard; it just takes small, simple steps. Here’s what you can do:
First, stop and “name” your feeling when it appears.
If you’re mad at a classmate who took your notebook, don’t shout right away. Instead, say to yourself: “I’m angry because my things were taken.” 1 This small act helps you take a step back instead of letting your feeling control you.
Second, find a quick way to calm down.
When stress from a math test makes your heart beat fast, try this: take three slow breaths—in through your nose, out through your mouth. 2 You can also keep a small thing with you, like a favorite candy or a photo, to look at when you feel stressed.
Third, talk to someone you trust.
You don’t have to hold all feelings inside. If you’re sad about a bad grade, tell your mom, dad, or a teacher. 3 They might not work out the problem right away, but just listening can make you feel lighter.
Fourth, set a small “mood break” every day.
Between studying and homework, spend 10 minutes doing something you like—listening to a short song, drawing a quick picture, or even just looking out the window. 4 This break lets your brain rest and keeps bad feelings from growing. 5
It’s common to feel worried before a big exam or upset when a friend disappoints you. After all, moods are like the changing clouds—they never stay the same for long.
A.These breaths slow down your heart and help you think clearly.
B.Finally, you don’t need to be worried about having strong moods.
C.Naming your feeling helps you understand what’s really bothering you.
D.For ninth-graders, the only way to reduce stress is to study harder.
E.Doing something fun for a short time can cheer you up quickly.
F.They know you well and can give you advice that fits your situation.
G.Feeling angry or sad means you’re a weak person who can’t handle pressure.

Doing sports is good for our body and mind. Today, exercising through online videos is becoming popular. With the Internet, people can do it anytime, anywhere.
One of my friends, Lin Fei, followed short videos to do daily exercise. “With live (直播) programs, I feel like I am working out with my friends, which encourages me to hold on to the last minute,” she said. Another friend of mine, Michael, told me that working out through videos made him feel comfortable. “I have a fear of working out at the gym (体育馆), because I don’t like being watched by people around me. But working out at home doesn’t make me feel embarrassed (尴尬),” he said.
Hearing about their experiences, I decided to give it a try. When I told my plan to my elder sister, a P. E. teacher, she said that workout videos could be helpful but might still carry some problems.
“Without being with someone in person, you will be less willing to work out to your best. Working out at the gym allows you to have advice in real time and get pushed harder,” my sister said to me. “Well, if you really want to have a try, first, choose proper programs or videos. That’s very important. And then ask your friends for advice. Their experiences can give you a better understanding of what you can expect. Anyway, don’t depend too much on it. You should try some different ways too.”
At her suggestions, I followed an online program for three months, which also offered advice to meet my personal needs. After the first period of training, I felt it very practical and helpful when I put in the right amount of work with a strong will. Compared with going to the gym, using online videos is a much cheaper and time-saving choice. But it can be difficult sometimes when I’m too lazy or too busy to stick with it.
回答下面5个问题,每题答案不超过6个词。
1.Why is exercising through online videos becoming popular now?
2.How does Michael feel about working out through online videos?
3.What does paragraph 4 mainly tell us?
4.What will the writer probably suggest on working out through online videos?
5.Do you like exercising through online videos? Why or Why not?
【答案】1.Because people can do it anytime, anywhere. 2.Comfortable. 3.The suggestions from the writer’s sister. 4.Don’t give up. 5.Yes. Because exercising through using online videos is a much cheaper and time-saving choice.

根据短文内容在文章后表格中的空白处填入一个最恰当的词,每空一词。
Do you dream of growing up quickly so you can spend your own money? Making money isn’t just for grown-ups. Kids can do it, too.
Money gives you choices. If you want to buy a better birthday gift for your grandpa, the extra money you make helps.
Money gives you independence. When you make your own money, you don’t have to depend on someone else. 40 yuan that you make by yourself feels a lot better than 160 yuan from your parents.
Making money is also a learning process. It will lead to your success in the future. This includes dealing with money, communicating with other people, using what you’ve learned from textbooks and using your time wisely.
It’s easy to make money if you try:
●Collect soft drink cans. You can sell the cans and use the money for a new basketball. At the same time, you’ll keep the environment cleaner and nicer!
●Make greeting cards. If you are good at drawing, try making special cards. Your friends may want them for special days. You can sell them your cards at a low price if both of you are free.
●Sell used books. You may have some books that you have read, but you don’t want to keep. Then you can sell them to make money.
●Want to be a teacher in the future? Start practicing now. Are you good at maths, reading, or playing musical instruments? You can teach younger children how to get better grades or give them winter music lessons.
What are you good at? What do you like to do? Make sure it’s safe and legal (合法的).
Discuss your ideas with your parents. You need them to say “yes”.

Emotional intelligence, or EQ, is the ability to understand and manage your own feelings and those of others. Unlike IQ, which stays relatively stable throughout life, EQ can be improved with practice. People with high EQ are often successful in both work and relationships.
One key part of EQ is empathy — the ability to put yourself in someone else’s shoes. Empathetic people can sense how others feel and respond with kindness. Another component is self-regulation, which means controlling your impulses and thinking before acting. Self-regulated individuals stay calm under pressure and do not make hasty decisions.
Additionally, social skills are vital for high EQ. Good communicators listen actively, express themselves clearly, and resolve conflicts peacefully. They also inspire trust and cooperation in teams.
To boost your EQ, start by observing your emotional reactions in different situations. Write down what triggers your anger or anxiety. Then, practise deep breathing or counting to ten when you feel overwhelmed. Finally, ask for feedback from trusted friends about how you handle emotions. With consistent effort, you can significantly raise your EQ and enjoy a more fulfilling life.

阅读下面短文,根据文中的信息完成文后表格。(1~8题每空一词,第9题词数不限)
When difficult people express themselves orally, they usually want at least two things: they are heard and they are understood. As a good communicator should be a good listener, there are five steps towards good listening.
The first step is cooperating (合作). How does a difficult person know that you’re listening and understanding? In fact, it’s through the way you look and sound while he is talking. You may help him to fully express his thoughts and feelings. You do this by nodding your head in agreement, making certain sounds of understanding.
When the person begins to repeat what’s been said, it’s a signal (信号) of step two: turning back. It means that you repeat back some words he is using, sending a clear signal that you’re listening carefully and that you think what he is saying is important.
Having heard what he has to say, the next step is clarifying. At this point, you start to gather information about what is being communicated. Ask some open-ended questions, which will allow you to find out what intention he is hoping to satisfy.
The fourth step is to summarize (概括) what you’ve heard. This allows you to make sure that both you and the difficult person are on the same page. When you do this, two things happen. First, if you’ve missed something, he can fill in the details. Second, if you’ve shown that you’re making an effort to understand completely, this will make it more possible to gain cooperation from him.
Having listened carefully, you’ve now arrived at the point of confirming with the person that he feels satisfied that his thoughts have been fully voiced. Ask if he feels understood.
When enough sincere listening, questioning, and remembering are brought together, understanding is usually achieved and a difficult person becomes less difficult and more cooperative.
