Passage1
Are you afraid to speak in public? Are you a shy person? If you think you are too shy and want to be a little bit braver, try the following. You can make it.
★ Tell people you’re shy.
There’s no need to hide it. When they get to know you are a shy kid, they’ll understand you better. This also helps you feel at ease in talks.
★ Smile at everyone.
When you smile, people think you are friendly and easy to talk to. Remember that other people also have such feelings and most people will stay away from an angry-looking face.
★ Say something nice about the people around you.
If you find it hard to start talks, say something nice about the people around you. Think about how great you feel when someone says something nice to you. Doesn’t it make you want to keep talking to that person?
★ Get your attention elsewhere.
Enjoy the party or the game. Don’t waste time worrying about your looks or whether people like you or not.
Take one small step at a time. Each time after you say “Hi” or smile at someone for the first time, say to yourself, “I did it!” Or it could be something bigger, like buying yourself an ice-cream.
Keep trying and you’ll never be shy when you talk to others one day.
你害怕当众发言吗?你是一个害羞的人吗?如果你觉得自己太过害羞,想要变得勇敢一点,可以试试下面这些方法。你可以做到的。
★ 告诉别人你很害羞
没有必要掩饰这一点。当他们了解到你是个害羞的人,就会更加理解你。这也能让你在交谈中感到放松自在。
★ 对每个人微笑
当你微笑时,人们会觉得你很友好,容易亲近。记住,其他人也会有类似的感受,大多数人都会避开一脸怒气的人。
★ 赞美你身边的人
如果你觉得很难开启对话,就说一些身边人的好话。想一想,当别人对你说出赞美的话时,你的感觉有多棒。难道这不会让你想要继续和那个人交谈吗?
★ 把注意力转移到别处
尽情享受聚会或者活动。不要浪费时间担心自己的外表,或是纠结别人是否喜欢你。
一步一个小台阶。每一次当你第一次向别人问好或是对别人微笑之后,就对自己说:“我做到了!” 也可以给自己一点小奖励,比如给自己买一支冰淇淋。
坚持尝试,终有一天,你和别人交谈时就不会再害羞了。

Passage2
When the teacher asks if anyone can speak in front of the class, you lower your head. When you go to the restroom or dining hall, you always try to find someone to go with you because you are afraid of being seen alone. Is that you?
当老师询问有没有人愿意站在全班同学面前发言时,你低下了头。当你去洗手间或者食堂的时候,你总是想找个人陪你一起去,因为你害怕被别人看见自己孤身一人。这说的是你吗?
Well, many people have these kinds of experiences. They are feeling social anxiety (社交恐惧). People with social anxiety may easily communicate with intimate ones, like their family members and old friends. But meeting new friends and talking in public can make them very shy and nervous. A recent survey from China Daily showed that about 45 percent of the 1,560 interviewees (受访者) said they experienced social anxiety.
其实,很多人都有过这类经历。这就是社交焦虑。有社交焦虑的人可以和亲近的人顺畅交流,比如家人和老朋友。但是结识新朋友、当众讲话会让他们十分害羞、紧张。《中国日报》近期的一项调查显示,1560 名受访者中大约 45% 的人表示自己有过社交焦虑的体验。
Stefan G. Hofmann, an expert from Boston University, the US, said that social anxiety is probably “a result of the fear that we will not be welcome”. For Chinese kids, there’s another reason for their anxiety. Shu Man from East China Jiaotong University said, “Most of them are the only child in their families, so they don’t have many chances to practice their social skills.”
来自美国波士顿大学的专家斯特凡・G・霍夫曼表示,社交焦虑很可能源于 “害怕自己不受欢迎”。对于中国青少年来说,产生这种焦虑还有另一个原因。华东交通大学的舒曼说:“他们大多是家里的独生子女,因此没有太多机会去锻炼社交能力。”
But how to be social and improve your social skills? People can follow these methods. Firstly, work on selfworth. Stop thinking of things that make you down. Do your best to stop comparing yourself with others. Secondly, start smiling and use welcoming body language. Remember to give others a hug when you meet them. Stop looking at your phone all the time. Lastly, just be yourself. Take every chance to hang out with new people and those you like. Don’t hide yourself in your own world.
但是,该怎样学会社交、提升社交能力呢?大家可以试试下面这些方法。首先,重视自我价值。不要再去想那些令你沮丧的事情,尽量不要拿自己和别人作比较。其次,多微笑,使用让人感到亲切的肢体语言。见面时记得给别人一个拥抱,不要一直盯着手机。最后,做真实的自己。抓住每一个机会,和新朋友以及你喜欢的人相处,不要把自己封闭在个人的小世界里。

Passage1
Let’s talk about ...
TRUST
Trusting others can feel a bit scary at first!
I hope that others can trust me, so I try to be kind and honest!
Building trust takes time ... but once it’s there, you can do amazing things together!
Trust is very important in all of our relationships, including those with our family and friends. When there is trust, we all feel safe enough to enjoy ourselves, be ourselves and ask for help when we need it. We are all responsible for building trust!

Truthful — being open and honest
Reliable — doing what you say you will
Understanding — we can make some mistakes
Safety — we feel safe from harm

Passage2
Do you have trouble sharing your thoughts or worry no one will listen? Finding the words to explain how you feel isn’t always easy.
Making your voice heard means understanding that your words matter and your opinions count (有价值), Dr. Julia Clements is a psychologist (an expert in thoughts and feelings). She says speaking up means expressing your views, thoughts and feelings, not keeping them inside, and being open to hearing the thoughts, feelings and views of others too.
“Making yourself heard isn’t about shouting the loudest: in fact you don’t have to use your voice at all. You can express what you like and don’t like or what you want for the future by writing or drawing instead”, says Clements. “It is about finding ways to share what matters to you,” she explains.
Sharing your feelings with a person you trust will help you make sense of them. Scientists have discovered that sharing your feelings triggers (触发) a feel-good chemical in your brain. The chemical makes you feel relaxed and calm. Your voice can make a big difference to other people too. Jaime Thurston works with a charity. She gives kindness lessons in schools. She says "You can spread kindness and happiness simply by speaking. With a few kind words, you could help someone feel good about themselves or let them know they are supported.”
Clements suggests practising conversations with friends or parents on the way home from school and seeing if you have different opinions about something. If you’re struggling to explain your feelings, find a way that feels right for you, whether it’s talking face-to-face or writing it down. “When you’re ready, take a deep breath and believe in yourself,” says Thurston. “Know that your opinion matters.”
1.According to Dr. Julia Clements, “speaking up” includes all EXCEPT ________.
A.sharing your own thoughts B.listening to others’ opinions
C.keeping feelings to yourself D.being open to different views
2.What does the underlined “it” in Para 3 refer to?
A.Expressing your likes. B.Drawing your feelings.
C.Trusting other people. D.Making yourself heard.
3.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A.Why scientists study the human brain.
B.How to choose a person you trust to talk to.
C.Why Jaime Thurston teaches kindness in schools.
D.How sharing feelings helps both yourself and others.
4.What’s the best title for the passage?
A.A Way to Help Others B.Why Your Thoughts Matter
C.A Way to Share Feelings D.How to Shout Loudly to Be Heard
Passage3
How do you feel when someone listens to you carefully without interrupting (打断)? This is called active listening, and it’s a great way to understand others’ 1 and build trust between friends. Active listening 2 trying to understand how someone feels by listening and observing their body language. Annie, aged 11, 3 what it means to her. “When my friends tell me something 4 , I listen to what they are trying to say by their voice and look.” When you are listening to someone actively, you keep an eye on them 5 what’s going on around you. Doing like this can make them feel that you are careful about their problems.
Listening closely without stopping or giving your own opinion shows that you have a(n) 6 in what they are saying, even if you don’t agree with them sometimes.
It’s a good way to improve your empathy (同感能力) 7 you are learning to see the world through others’ eyes.
Listen to what your friend is saying 8 , and don’t jump in with your own thoughts and opinions. If you want to talk, you can make a listening 9 like nodding (点头) your head. “Active listening is a(n) 10 skill. I hope everyone can learn and use it,” says Samaritans.

Passage4
Mia stared at the basketball on the ground. She felt a heavy 1 in her chest (胸口) as she walked home alone. It was the 2 day of her basketball life—she’d missed the last shot (投篮). That shot could have helped her team win the game. How could she have 3 that chance? She had let her teammates down, and tears came to her eyes. Her coach might even kick her off the starting team next season.
As soon as she walked into the door, her mom asked 4 , “What’s wrong, sweetie?” “I lost the game.” Mia said quietly, then she went into her room without another word.
Five minutes later, her mom knocked at the door and went into her room. “Mia, 5 happened, don’t be too hard on yourself.” She said.
“I missed the last 6 , mom. The team lost the game because of me. They’ll probably refuse to play with me again.” Mia’s voice 7 .
“Basketball is a team sport. You’re not the only reason your team lost. If you have a good team, you should support each other. The most important thing is to communicate with your teammates and learn from your mistakes,” Her mom said. Mia said 8 but thought carefully.
The next day, Mia went to practice with 9 instead of fear. “Hey, guys, I’m really sorry about yesterday. We were so close to winning the game. But if we continue to 10 , we’ll win the next game for sure.” To her surprise, all teammates smiled and nodded in agreement. “It’s not just your fault. We all could have played better on defense (防守).” said Lila. Mia smiled too. She felt lucky to know that she was on a winning team.

Passage1
Let’s talk about ...
TRUST
Trusting others can feel a bit scary at first!
I hope that others can trust me, so I try to be kind and honest!
Building trust takes time ... but once it’s there, you can do amazing things together!
Trust is very important in all of our relationships, including those with our family and friends. When there is trust, we all feel safe enough to enjoy ourselves, be ourselves and ask for help when we need it. We are all responsible for building trust!

Passage2
Do you have trouble sharing your thoughts or worry no one will listen? Finding the words to explain how you feel isn’t always easy.
Making your voice heard means understanding that your words matter and your opinions count (有价值), Dr. Julia Clements is a psychologist (an expert in thoughts and feelings). She says speaking up means expressing your views, thoughts and feelings, not keeping them inside, and being open to hearing the thoughts, feelings and views of others too.
“Making yourself heard isn’t about shouting the loudest: in fact you don’t have to use your voice at all. You can express what you like and don’t like or what you want for the future by writing or drawing instead”, says Clements. “It is about finding ways to share what matters to you,” she explains.
Sharing your feelings with a person you trust will help you make sense of them. Scientists have discovered that sharing your feelings triggers (触发) a feel-good chemical in your brain. The chemical makes you feel relaxed and calm. Your voice can make a big difference to other people too. Jaime Thurston works with a charity. She gives kindness lessons in schools. She says "You can spread kindness and happiness simply by speaking. With a few kind words, you could help someone feel good about themselves or let them know they are supported.”
Clements suggests practising conversations with friends or parents on the way home from school and seeing if you have different opinions about something. If you’re struggling to explain your feelings, find a way that feels right for you, whether it’s talking face-to-face or writing it down. “When you’re ready, take a deep breath and believe in yourself,” says Thurston. “Know that your opinion matters.”
1.According to Dr. Julia Clements, “speaking up” includes all EXCEPT ________.
A.sharing your own thoughts B.listening to others’ opinions
C.keeping feelings to yourself D.being open to different views
2.What does the underlined “it” in Para 3 refer to?
A.Expressing your likes. B.Drawing your feelings.
C.Trusting other people. D.Making yourself heard.
3.What’s the main idea of Paragraph 4?
A.Why scientists study the human brain.
B.How to choose a person you trust to talk to.
C.Why Jaime Thurston teaches kindness in schools.
D.How sharing feelings helps both yourself and others.
4.What’s the best title for the passage?
A.A Way to Help Others B.Why Your Thoughts Matter
C.A Way to Share Feelings D.How to Shout Loudly to Be Heard
【答案】1.C 2.D 3.D 4.B
【详解】1.根据第二段中Dr. Julia Clements的话“speaking up means expressing your views, thoughts and feelings, not keeping them inside”可知,speaking up意味着表达观点,而不是把感受藏在心里。选项C“把感受藏在心里”与文意相反,故选C。
2.第三段首句提到“Making yourself heard isn’t about shouting the loudest”,紧接着说“It is about finding ways to share what matters to you”。这里的It指代的是本段讨论的主题,即“让自己被听见”(Making yourself heard),故选D。
3.第四段前半部分提到分享感受能触发大脑化学物质,让自己放松(对自己有益);后半部分引用Jaime Thurston的话,指出说话也能传播善意,帮助他人(对他人有益)。选项D涵盖了这两方面内容,故选D。
4.全文核心:鼓励人们大胆表达,你的观点与想法十分重要。 A项“帮助他人的方式”(片面);C项“一种分享情绪的方法”(只局部);D项“如何大声呼喊被听见”(和原文观点相悖);B项“Why Your Thoughts Matter”(为什么你的想法很重要) 贴合主旨。
Passage3

Passage4
Mia stared at the basketball on the ground. She felt a heavy 1 in her chest (胸口) as she walked home alone. It was the 2 day of her basketball life—she’d missed the last shot (投篮). That shot could have helped her team win the game. How could she have 3 that chance? She had let her teammates down, and tears came to her eyes. Her coach might even kick her off the starting team next season.
As soon as she walked into the door, her mom asked 4 , “What’s wrong, sweetie?” “I lost the game.” Mia said quietly, then she went into her room without another word.
Five minutes later, her mom knocked at the door and went into her room. “Mia, 5 happened, don’t be too hard on yourself.” She said.
“I missed the last 6 , mom. The team lost the game because of me. They’ll probably refuse to play with me again.” Mia’s voice 7 .
“Basketball is a team sport. You’re not the only reason your team lost. If you have a good team, you should support each other. The most important thing is to communicate with your teammates and learn from your mistakes,” Her mom said. Mia said 8 but thought carefully.
The next day, Mia went to practice with 9 instead of fear. “Hey, guys, I’m really sorry about yesterday. We were so close to winning the game. But if we continue to 10 , we’ll win the next game for sure.” To her surprise, all teammates smiled and nodded in agreement. “It’s not just your fault. We all could have played better on defense (防守).” said Lila. Mia smiled too. She felt lucky to know that she was on a winning team.
1.A.bag B.happiness C.weight
2.A.worst B.happiest C.funniest
3.A.found B.missed C.made
4.A.softly B.loudly C.angrily
5.A.wherever B.whenever C.whatever
6.A.shot B.game C.team
7.A.spread B.shook C.produced
8.A.something B.everything C.nothing
9.A.courage B.worry C.sadness
10.A.give up B.work together C.stand up
【答案】
1.C 2.A 3.B 4.A 5.C 6.A 7.B 8.C 9.A 10.B
【详解】1.句意:她独自走回家时感到胸口有一种沉重的重量。
根据“heavy”及失落心情,可知指心理负担,weight符合语境。bag指实物,happiness与悲伤语境不符。
2.句意:那是她篮球生涯最糟糕的一天。
后文交代她丢了制胜投篮、拖累队伍,因此这天是最差的,worst是bad的最高级;happiest“最开心的”、funniest“最有趣的”和低落剧情冲突。
3.句意:她怎能错过那个机会?
前文“she’d missed the last shot”说明她丢掉了赢球的机会,miss chance是固定搭配,意为“错失机会”;found“找到”、made“创造”不符合剧情逻辑。
4.句意:妈妈温柔地问。
根据妈妈关心受伤的女儿,可知语气温柔。softly“轻柔地”修饰动词asked;loudly“大声地”、angrily“生气地”不符合母亲关心孩子的温柔形象。
5.句意:无论发生什么,别太苛责自己。
whatever happened是固定表达,意为“无论发生什么”,whatever在从句中作主语;wherever“无论哪里”,whenever“无论何时”,均无法在本句充当主语。
6.句意:我错过了最后一次投篮。
前文原句“she’d missed the last shot”对应此处,shot特指篮球“投篮”;game“比赛”、team“队伍”和前文线索不匹配。
7.句意:Mia的声音颤抖。
她满心愧疚难过,说话时声音会发抖,shake此处过去式shook表示“颤抖”;spread“传播”、produced“生产”不能用来形容声音状态。
8.句意:Mia什么也没说但仔细思考。
后文“but thought carefully”说明她没有开口说话,said nothing表示“什么都没说”;something“某事”、everything“所有事”语义矛盾。
9.句意:带着勇气而不是恐惧去训练。
后文她主动向全队道歉,说明她拥有了直面队友的勇气“courage”;worry“担忧”、sadness“悲伤”和后文主动道歉的行为相反。
10.句意:如果我们继续合作,肯定赢。
篮球是团队运动,想要获胜需要队员合作“work together”;give up“放弃”、stand up“站起来”不符合赢球的团队逻辑。
