(来源:BBC Learning English)In today’s fast-paced world, many people feel overwhelmed by endless tasks and responsibilities. The concept of “slow living” encourages us to reduce daily speed, improve quality of life, and even prolong our lifespan. Adopting a slower pace can lead to better health, less stress, stronger relationships, and greater happiness.
Here are six simple tips for slowing down everyday life. First, stop doing things you don’t truly want or need to do, such as excessive browsing or unhealthy habits. Second, focus on one thing at a time — multitasking only increases anxiety and makes time rush by. Third, go offline for part of the day; constant connectivity disrupts our workflow and peace of mind. Fourth, enjoy small details in ordinary moments, like watching water flow down a windscreen or noticing reflections in a mirror. Fifth, use waiting time for observation rather than worry. Finally, spend quality time with loved ones without digital distractions, such as dining together without screens.
These simple changes can help us regain control over our daily lives, reduce mental pressure, and appreciate the present moment more fully.

在当今快节奏的世界中,许多人被无休止的任务和责任压得喘不过气来。“慢生活”的理念鼓励我们降低日常速度,提高生活质量,甚至延长寿命。采取更慢的生活节奏可以带来更好的健康、更少的压力、更和谐的人际关系以及更高的幸福感。
以下是放慢日常生活的六个简单建议。首先,停止做那些你并不真正想做或需要做的事情,例如过度浏览信息或不良习惯。其次,一次只做一件事——多任务处理只会增加焦虑,让时间飞逝。第三,每天留出一段时间断开网络;持续在线会干扰我们的工作流程和内心平静。第四,享受平凡时刻中的小细节,比如观察水从挡风玻璃上流下,或注意镜中的倒影。第五,把等待时间用来观察,而不是焦虑。最后,与所爱之人共度优质时光,远离电子设备的干扰,比如一起用餐时不用屏幕。
这些简单的改变可以帮助我们重新掌控日常生活,减轻精神压力,并更加充分地享受当下时刻。

【长难句分析】
1. First, stop doing things you don’t truly want or need to do, such as excessive browsing or unhealthy habits.
句意:首先,停止做那些你并不真正想做或需要做的事情,例如过度浏览信息或不良习惯。
分析:本句是祈使句,stop 是谓语,doing things 是动名词短语作宾语;you don’t truly want or need to do 是定语从句,修饰先行词 things;such as... 是对 things 的举例说明。
2. We won’t lose business if we don’t answer at once, but we might lose out for sure if we interrupt our work flow on one task to answer somebody else.
句意:如果我们不立刻回复,并不会失去业务;但如果我们中断当前任务的工作流程去回复别人,就肯定会有所损失。
分析:本句是由 but 连接的并列复合句。前半句中,if we don’t answer at once 是条件状语从句;后半句中,if we interrupt our work flow... to answer somebody else 是条件状语从句,其中 to answer somebody else 是不定式短语作目的状语。lose out 意为“吃亏;受损”。

Passage 1
Some students are making big decisions in their life:Which universities should they apply to? I also noticed that many high school students in China are thinking of studying at universities abroad . Unluckily , from what I've seen , the information given by some websites and other media about studying abroad is very limited and sometimes even wrong.
There are once a Chinese girl who hoped that she could go to Columbia University in the US because she wanted to major in journalism. Columbia has a very famous graduate programme in journalism. However, it has no journalism programme at the undergraduate(本科生)level!What's more,in both Canada and the US, it's not suggested that students throw themselves into journalism right after high school. School says that students should take in more knowledge about the world and writing before entering that field.
The University of Waterloo, a Canadian university famous for its engineering programme, is another example. The emphasis(重视)of engineering in this school may go beyond your expectations. According to our teachers, this university spent millions of dollars building a library just for engineering students. The school's computer science, mathematics and accounting are also great programmes for students.
But, to be honest, according to my friends who have visited this university, the campus and the food are not very nice. Maybe this is because the school stresses its academic strengths too much, thereby paying little attention to personal comforts.
Now you see , choosing a university is really not that easy . We need to do good research and consult as many people as possible before making a decision.
1. Who can major in journalism programme in Columbia University?
A. Chinese girls. B.Graduates.
C.Undergraduates. D.High school students
2. What can we learn about the University of Waterloo fron Paragraphs 3 and 4?
A.Engineering programme is as famous as computer science.
B.Engineering students are the most intelligent.
C. The campus is very small and dirty.
D. The library for engineering students is very good.
3. What's the best title for the passage?
A. Choosing a University Is Not Easy
B.How to Study at a University Abroad
C.A Chinese Girl and Columbia University
D. Academic Strengths of the University of Waterloo

A student was one day taking a walk with his teacher.As they went along,they saw a pair of old shoes lying in the path.They were a poor farmer’s,who was working in the nearby field.
The student turned to the teacher,saying,“We will hide his shoes,and hide ourselves behind those trees,and wait to see what he will do.”
“My young friend,”answered the teacher,“we should never make fun of the poor.Why not put a coin in each shoe,and then we will hide ourselves and watch?”The student did so and they both hid themselves behind the trees.The poor man soon finished his work,and came across the field to the path where he had left his coat and shoes.
After putting on his coat,he put his foot into one of his shoes,and felt something hard.Then he bent(弯腰) down to see what it was,and found the coin. Surprised,he looked at the coin,turned it around and looked at it again. He then looked around,but no person was seen. He put the money into his pocket,and continued to put on the other shoe. His surprise was doubled on finding the other coin.

Passage 4
During the rosy years of elementary school(小学),I enjoyed sharing my dolls and jokes, which allowed me to keep my high social status. I was the queen of the playground. Then came my tweens and teens, and mean girls and cool kids. Th rose in the ranks not by being friendly but by smoking cigarettes,breaking rules and playing jokes on others, among whom I soon found myself.
Popularity is a well-explored subject in social psycholog Mitch Prinstein, a professor of clinical psychology sorts the popular into two categories : the likable and the status seekers . The likables' plays-well-with-others qualities strengthen schoolyard friendships, jump-start interpersonal skills and, when tapp early , are employed ever after in life and work . Then there's the kind of popularity that appears in adolescence: status born of power and even dishonorable behavior.
Enviable as the cool kids may have seemed , Dr . Prinstein's studies show unpleasant consequences. Those who were highest in status in high school, as well as those least liked in elementa school,are"most likely to engage(从事)in dangerous and risky behavior."
In one study, Dr. Prinstein examined the two types of popularity in 235 adolescents, scoring the least liked, the mos liked and the highest in status based on student surveys(调查研究)."We found that the least well-liked teens had become m aggressive over time toward their classmates. But so had those who were high in status. It clearly showed that while likability can lead to healthy adjustment , high status has just the opposite effect on us . "
Dr. Prinstein has also found that the qualities that made the neighbors want you on a play date-sharing, kindness openness-carry over to later years and make you better able relate and connect with others .
In analyzing his and other research, Dr. Prinstein came another conclusion : Not only is likability related to positive life outcomes,but it is also responsible for those outcomes,too. " Being liked creates opportunities for learning and for new kinds of life experiences that help somebody gain an advantage,"said.
12 . What sort of girl was the author in her early years o elementary school ?
A.Unkind. B.Lonely.
C. Generous. D.Cool.
13.What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A. The classification of the popular.
B. The characteristics of adolescents.
C. The importance of interpersonal skills.
D. The causes of dishonorable behavior.
14. What did Dr. Prinstein's study find about the most liked kids?
A.They appeared to be aggressive.
B. They tended to be more adaptable.
C . They enjoyed the highest status .
D. They performed well academically.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A.Be Nice-You Won't Finish Last
B. The Higher the Status, the Better
C.Be the Best-You Can Make It
D. More Self-Control, Less Aggressiveness

Passage 5
How to Make Friends at a New School
Starting with a new school can be difficult.Everything seems to be different,and you don’t even know where to go for your own classes. 1 However,if you use these skills,you can quickly turn some of those strangers into friends.
Be yourself.
2 If some people don’t accept you,they’re not the kind of friends you need.People often stay together because they have similar interests.For example,someone who does a lot of sports may make friends with those who also run or swim a lot.
3
Remember to be nice to the people you meet at your new school.If you think that you will say something that may make them feel sad,do not say anything and just nod your head if they talk to you.Also,remember to be as helpful as possible!
Believe in yourself.
A smile goes a long way.When you walk in the halls,don’t keep your eyes on the floor.Raise your head and make eye contact with other people. 4 Introduce yourself.Tell them your name and where you’re from.
Remember people’s names.
You like it when people use your name,and so do other people. 5 Besides,ask them in a kind way if they have a nickname(昵称).You’d be surprised how often this might come in handy.
A.Be friendly to others.
B.Making new friends can be hard,too.
C.Join after-school activities you like.
D.Never change what you are to try and fit in.
E.If you see someone you know,smile or say “hi”.
F.People may become angry if you just begin by saying “hey” each time.
G.Don’t sit at the back of the classroom where other people don’t notice you!

解析 由该空后的“However,if you use...strangers into friends.”可知,这里是说结交新朋友也会很难,故选B项。
2.答案 D
解析 由该段标题“Be yourself.”和该空的下文可知,D项“永远不要改变你要尝试和适应的东西”符合此处语境。
3.答案 A
解析 由该段中的“Remember to be nice...at your new school.”和“remember to be as helpful as possible”等信息可知,本段主要是讲要对他人友善,故用A项作为小标题最恰当。
4.答案 E
解析 由该空前后的“...make eye contact with other people”和“Introduce yourself.”等信息可知,E项内容符合此处语境。
5.答案 F
解析 由该段标题“Remember people’s names.”和该空前的“You like it when people use your name,and so do other people.”可知,记住别人的名字非常重要,如果你每次都只说“嘿”,对方可能会生气,故选F项。

语篇解读:本文是一篇记叙文。作者讲述上学期间与Mrs.Neidl在舞台设计团队共事,她对作者的信任对作者有着深远影响。
1.答案 B
解析 根据空格前的“an unpleasant voice and a direct way of speaking”以及空格后的“encouraging and inspiring”可知,前后为转折关系,四个选项中,只有yet表转折。
2.答案 A
解析 根据空格后的“She wanted to know how I thought”可知,奈德尔夫人会问作者的观点(opinion)。下文中的“she believed I had opinions”也给出了提示。
3.答案 D
解析 开始作者不知道如何回答,因为她对舞台设计一无所知。know nothing about sth.对某事一无所知。
4.答案 A
解析 根据上文中的ask可知,这里表示作者慢慢地开始回答她的问题(question)。
5.答案 D
解析 她相信作者有自己的观点,所以作者开始形成(form)自己的观点。
6.答案 C
解析 根据下文的“so I began to show up to paint more and more”可知,作者做的事情变多是因为奈德尔夫人知道作者是多么值得信赖(reliable)。
7.答案 B
解析 引号内是鼓励性的话语,由此可推知这里指“座右铭(motto)”。saying意为“谚语”,谚语往往是人们长期形成的对生活及经验的总结,强调群体性及时间性,故不适合。
8.答案 D
解析 奈德尔夫人鼓励学生大胆地画,如果没有画好,稍后(later)可以用新的颜料覆盖之前的画。
9.答案 D
解析 作者曾担心自己做不好,但在奈德尔夫人的鼓励下现在敢于去尝试了,在作者看来这是开始冒险。take risks冒险。
10.答案 A
解析 作者现在认为事情不存在失败,只存在改进(improve)。
11.答案 C
解析 本段主要描写作者从不敢做到敢做的过程。根据上文可知作者曾很不自信,后来在奈德尔夫人的鼓励下才自信地(confidently)拿起了画笔。
12.答案 B
解析 根据下文可知,作者的努力得到了认可(recognize)。
13.答案 B
解析 作者发现(discover)了一个强烈的兴趣和一个不知道已经存在的世界。develop与interest连用表示形成某种兴趣。
14.答案 D
解析 根据上文可知,她教作者去冒险,不要害怕(afraid)。
15.答案 C
解析 她对作者的信任激励着作者去做自己以前认为不可能的事情。accessible易得到的;enjoyable使人愉快的;possible可能的;favourable有利的,赞同的。
Passage 7

语篇解读:本文是一篇议论文。用英语写日记是提高英语写作能力的最有效的方法之一,本文就用英语写日记时遇到的问题提出了一些建议。
1.答案 useful
解析 考查形容词。分析句子可知,空白处在这里作定语修饰ways,构成“one of the+形容词最高级+可数名词复数形式”的结构,要用形容词useful表示“有用的”。故填useful。
2.答案 Compared
解析 考查非谓语动词。句意为:相较于其他写作形式,日记更短更省时。分析句子可知,compare在这里作状语修饰主句,compare与主语it(指代keeping a diary)之间是被动关系,要用过去分词形式表示“相较于……”。故填Compared。
3.答案 If
解析 考查连词。句意为:如果我们坚持这一做法,就会逐渐学会如何用英语表达自己。后句使用一般将来时,且应该视为前句动作实现带来的结果,考虑条件状语从句,要用if来引导。故填If。
4.答案 ourselves
解析 考查代词。分析句子可知,空格处在这里作express的宾语,主语是we,应该用反身代词ourselves表示“表达自己”。故填ourselves。
5.答案 the
解析 考查冠词。in the first place表示“首先,首要的是”,是固定短语。故填the。
6.答案 finding
解析 考查非谓语动词。have trouble (in) doing sth.意为“做某事有困难”,是固定搭配。故填finding。
7.答案 properly
解析 考查副词。分析句子可知,proper在这里修饰动词put,要用副词形式。故填properly。
8.答案 suggestion
解析 考查名词和主谓一致。分析句子可知,这里my修饰空格处共同组成句子的主语,要用名词suggestion表示“建议”。be动词是is,所以主语为单数。故填suggestion。
9.答案 troubles
解析 考查时态和主谓一致。在whenever引导的时间状语从句中,主句为一般现在时,从句也要用一般现在时。主语something为不定代词,视为第三人称单数,谓语动词trouble也要用单数形式。故填troubles。
10.答案 of
解析 考查介词。这里be of help等同于be helpful,表示“有帮助的”。故填of。

My new school is a wellknown school with a long history.There are 50 classes,more than 300 teachers and over 3,500 students in my school.The classrooms are amazing.Every room has a computer with a special screen,almost as big as a cinema screen.And there are sixty students in my class,who are all hardworking.I'm getting on very well with my classmates.My favorite teacher is a very enthusiastic woman called Ms Wang,whose way of teaching is nothing like that of my previous teachers.She usually tells us something in an interesting way.I don't think I will be bored in her class.
We usually get up at 6:30 and our class starts at 8:00.I always take part in colorful afterclass activities and we go to bed at ten.
Bye for now!

2.答案 A
解析 根据空格后的“She wanted to know how I thought”可知,奈德尔夫人会问作者的观点(opinion)。下文中的“she believed I had opinions”也给出了提示。
3.答案 D
解析 开始作者不知道如何回答,因为她对舞台设计一无所知。know nothing about sth.对某事一无所知。
4.答案 A
解析 根据上文中的ask可知,这里表示作者慢慢地开始回答她的问题(question)。
5.答案 D
解析 她相信作者有自己的观点,所以作者开始形成(form)自己的观点。
6.答案 C
解析 根据下文的“so I began to show up to paint more and more”可知,作者做的事情变多是因为奈德尔夫人知道作者是多么值得信赖(reliable)。
7.答案 B
解析 引号内是鼓励性的话语,由此可推知这里指“座右铭(motto)”。saying意为“谚语”,谚语往往是人们长期形成的对生活及经验的总结,强调群体性及时间性,故不适合。
8.答案 D
解析 奈德尔夫人鼓励学生大胆地画,如果没有画好,稍后(later)可以用新的颜料覆盖之前的画。
9.答案 D

Passage 7
语篇解读:本文是一篇议论文。用英语写日记是提高英语写作能力的最有效的方法之一,本文就用英语写日记时遇到的问题提出了一些建议。
1.答案 useful
解析 考查形容词。分析句子可知,空白处在这里作定语修饰ways,构成“one of the+形容词最高级+可数名词复数形式”的结构,要用形容词useful表示“有用的”。故填useful。
2.答案 Compared
解析 考查非谓语动词。句意为:相较于其他写作形式,日记更短更省时。分析句子可知,compare在这里作状语修饰主句,compare与主语it(指代keeping a diary)之间是被动关系,要用过去分词形式表示“相较于……”。故填Compared。
3.答案 If
解析 考查连词。句意为:如果我们坚持这一做法,就会逐渐学会如何用英语表达自己。后句使用一般将来时,且应该视为前句动作实现带来的结果,考虑条件状语从句,要用if来引导。故填If。
4.答案 ourselves
解析 考查代词。分析句子可知,空格处在这里作express的宾语,主语是we,应该用反身代词ourselves表示“表达自己”。故填ourselves。
5.答案 the
解析 考查冠词。in the first place表示“首先,首要的是”,是固定短语。故填the。
6.答案 finding
解析 考查非谓语动词。have trouble (in) doing sth.意为“做某事有困难”,是固定搭配。故填finding。
7.答案 properly
解析 考查副词。分析句子可知,proper在这里修饰动词put,要用副词形式。故填properly。
8.答案 suggestion
解析 考查名词和主谓一致。分析句子可知,这里my修饰空格处共同组成句子的主语,要用名词suggestion表示“建议”。be动词是is,所以主语为单数。故填suggestion。
9.答案 troubles
解析 考查时态和主谓一致。在whenever引导的时间状语从句中,主句为一般现在时,从句也要用一般现在时。主语something为不定代词,视为第三人称单数,谓语动词trouble也要用单数形式。故填troubles。
10.答案 of
解析 考查介词。这里be of help等同于be helpful,表示“有帮助的”。故填of。

(来源:BBC Learning English)In today’s fast-paced world, many people feel overwhelmed by endless tasks and responsibilities. The concept of “slow living” encourages us to reduce daily speed, improve quality of life, and even prolong our lifespan. Adopting a slower pace can lead to better health, less stress, stronger relationships, and greater happiness.
Here are six simple tips for slowing down everyday life. First, stop doing things you don’t truly want or need to do, such as excessive browsing or unhealthy habits. Second, focus on one thing at a time — multitasking only increases anxiety and makes time rush by. Third, go offline for part of the day; constant connectivity disrupts our workflow and peace of mind. Fourth, enjoy small details in ordinary moments, like watching water flow down a windscreen or noticing reflections in a mirror. Fifth, use waiting time for observation rather than worry. Finally, spend quality time with loved ones without digital distractions, such as dining together without screens.
These simple changes can help us regain control over our daily lives, reduce mental pressure, and appreciate the present moment more fully.
【全文翻译】
在当今快节奏的世界中,许多人被无休止的任务和责任压得喘不过气来。“慢生活”的理念鼓励我们降低日常速度,提高生活质量,甚至延长寿命。采取更慢的生活节奏可以带来更好的健康、更少的压力、更和谐的人际关系以及更高的幸福感。
以下是放慢日常生活的六个简单建议。首先,停止做那些你并不真正想做或需要做的事情,例如过度浏览信息或不良习惯。其次,一次只做一件事——多任务处理只会增加焦虑,让时间飞逝。第三,每天留出一段时间断开网络;持续在线会干扰我们的工作流程和内心平静。第四,享受平凡时刻中的小细节,比如观察水从挡风玻璃上流下,或注意镜中的倒影。第五,把等待时间用来观察,而不是焦虑。最后,与所爱之人共度优质时光,远离电子设备的干扰,比如一起用餐时不用屏幕。
这些简单的改变可以帮助我们重新掌控日常生活,减轻精神压力,并更加充分地享受当下时刻。

【长难句分析】
1. First, stop doing things you don’t truly want or need to do, such as excessive browsing or unhealthy habits.
句意:首先,停止做那些你并不真正想做或需要做的事情,例如过度浏览信息或不良习惯。
分析:本句是祈使句,stop 是谓语,doing things 是动名词短语作宾语;you don’t truly want or need to do 是定语从句,修饰先行词 things;such as... 是对 things 的举例说明。
2. We won’t lose business if we don’t answer at once, but we might lose out for sure if we interrupt our work flow on one task to answer somebody else.
句意:如果我们不立刻回复,并不会失去业务;但如果我们中断当前任务的工作流程去回复别人,就肯定会有所损失。
分析:本句是由 but 连接的并列复合句。前半句中,if we don’t answer at once 是条件状语从句;后半句中,if we interrupt our work flow... to answer somebody else 是条件状语从句,其中 to answer somebody else 是不定式短语作目的状语。lose out 意为“吃亏;受损”。

Passage 1
Some students are making big decisions in their life:Which universities should they apply to? I also noticed that many high school students in China are thinking of studying at universities abroad . Unluckily , from what I've seen , the information given by some websites and other media about studying abroad is very limited and sometimes even wrong.
There are once a Chinese girl who hoped that she could go to Columbia University in the US because she wanted to major in journalism. Columbia has a very famous graduate programme in journalism. However, it has no journalism programme at the undergraduate(本科生)level!What's more,in both Canada and the US, it's not suggested that students throw themselves into journalism right after high school. School says that students should take in more knowledge about the world and writing before entering that field.
The University of Waterloo, a Canadian university famous for its engineering programme, is another example. The emphasis(重视)of engineering in this school may go beyond your expectations. According to our teachers, this university spent millions of dollars building a library just for engineering students. The school's computer science, mathematics and accounting are also great programmes for students.
But, to be honest, according to my friends who have visited this university, the campus and the food are not very nice. Maybe this is because the school stresses its academic strengths too much, thereby paying little attention to personal comforts.
Now you see , choosing a university is really not that easy . We need to do good research and consult as many people as possible before making a decision.
1. Who can major in journalism programme in Columbia University?
A. Chinese girls. B.Graduates.
C.Undergraduates. D.High school students

3. What's the best title for the passage?
A. Choosing a University Is Not Easy
B.How to Study at a University Abroad
C.A Chinese Girl and Columbia University
D. Academic Strengths of the University of Waterloo

A student was one day taking a walk with his teacher.As they went along,they saw a pair of old shoes lying in the path.They were a poor farmer’s,who was working in the nearby field.
The student turned to the teacher,saying,“We will hide his shoes,and hide ourselves behind those trees,and wait to see what he will do.”
“My young friend,”answered the teacher,“we should never make fun of the poor.Why not put a coin in each shoe,and then we will hide ourselves and watch?”The student did so and they both hid themselves behind the trees.The poor man soon finished his work,and came across the field to the path where he had left his coat and shoes.
After putting on his coat,he put his foot into one of his shoes,and felt something hard.Then he bent(弯腰) down to see what it was,and found the coin. Surprised,he looked at the coin,turned it around and looked at it again. He then looked around,but no person was seen. He put the money into his pocket,and continued to put on the other shoe. His surprise was doubled on finding the other coin.
He couldn’t control his feelings and fell to his knees,looked up at the sky and expressed his thanks.Then he spoke of his wife,sick and helpless,and his children without bread.He said the help would save them from dying.

Passage 4
During the rosy years of elementary school(小学),I enjoyed sharing my dolls and jokes, which allowed me to keep my high social status. I was the queen of the playground. Then came my tweens and teens, and mean girls and cool kids. Th rose in the ranks not by being friendly but by smoking cigarettes,breaking rules and playing jokes on others, among whom I soon found myself.
Popularity is a well-explored subject in social psycholog Mitch Prinstein, a professor of clinical psychology sorts the popular into two categories : the likable and the status seekers . The likables' plays-well-with-others qualities strengthen schoolyard friendships, jump-start interpersonal skills and, when tapp early , are employed ever after in life and work . Then there's the kind of popularity that appears in adolescence: status born of power and even dishonorable behavior.
Enviable as the cool kids may have seemed , Dr . Prinstein's studies show unpleasant consequences. Those who were highest in status in high school, as well as those least liked in elementa school,are"most likely to engage(从事)in dangerous and risky behavior."
In one study, Dr. Prinstein examined the two types of popularity in 235 adolescents, scoring the least liked, the mos liked and the highest in status based on student surveys(调查研究)."We found that the least well-liked teens had become m aggressive over time toward their classmates. But so had those who were high in status. It clearly showed that while likability can lead to healthy adjustment , high status has just the opposite effect on us . "
Dr. Prinstein has also found that the qualities that made the neighbors want you on a play date-sharing, kindness openness-carry over to later years and make you better able relate and connect with others .
In analyzing his and other research, Dr. Prinstein came another conclusion : Not only is likability related to positive life outcomes,but it is also responsible for those outcomes,too. " Being liked creates opportunities for learning and for new kinds of life experiences that help somebody gain an advantage,"said.
12 . What sort of girl was the author in her early years o elementary school ?
A.Unkind. B.Lonely.
C. Generous. D.Cool.
13.What is the second paragraph mainly about?
A. The classification of the popular.
B. The characteristics of adolescents.
C. The importance of interpersonal skills.
D. The causes of dishonorable behavior.
14. What did Dr. Prinstein's study find about the most liked kids?
A.They appeared to be aggressive.
B. They tended to be more adaptable.
C . They enjoyed the highest status .
D. They performed well academically.
15. What is the best title for the text?
A.Be Nice-You Won't Finish Last
B. The Higher the Status, the Better
C.Be the Best-You Can Make It
D. More Self-Control, Less Aggressiveness
Passage 5
How to Make Friends at a New School
Starting with a new school can be difficult.Everything seems to be different,and you don’t even know where to go for your own classes. 1 However,if you use these skills,you can quickly turn some of those strangers into friends.
Be yourself.
2 If some people don’t accept you,they’re not the kind of friends you need.People often stay together because they have similar interests.For example,someone who does a lot of sports may make friends with those who also run or swim a lot.
3
Remember to be nice to the people you meet at your new school.If you think that you will say something that may make them feel sad,do not say anything and just nod your head if they talk to you.Also,remember to be as helpful as possible!
Believe in yourself.
A smile goes a long way.When you walk in the halls,don’t keep your eyes on the floor.Raise your head and make eye contact with other people. 4 Introduce yourself.Tell them your name and where you’re from.
Remember people’s names.
You like it when people use your name,and so do other people. 5 Besides,ask them in a kind way if they have a nickname(昵称).You’d be surprised how often this might come in handy.
A.Be friendly to others.
B.Making new friends can be hard,too.
C.Join after-school activities you like.
D.Never change what you are to try and fit in.
E.If you see someone you know,smile or say “hi”.
F.People may become angry if you just begin by saying “hey” each time.
G.Don’t sit at the back of the classroom where other people don’t notice you!
Passage 6

Mrs Neidl would ask me for my 2 .She wanted to know how I thought we should handle things.At first I had no idea how to answer because I knew 3 about stage design!But I slowly began to respond to her 4 .It was cause and effect:she believed I had opinions,so I began to 5 them.She loved how 6 I was,so I began to show up to paint more and more.
Mrs Neidl’s 7 that year was,“Try it.We can always paint over it 8 !” I began to take 9 .I had been so afraid of failing but suddenly there was no failing—only things to be 10 upon.I learned to dip my brush into the paint and 11 create something.I was 12 in the programme because of the time and efforts.
I 13 a strong interest and a world I hadn’t known existed.She taught me not to be 14 .Mrs Neidl was my comforter when I was upset.Her trust in me has inspired me to do things that I never imagined 15 .
