Though rare, such incidents can be deadly when they occur. In the past, these events have caused severe injuries and even fatalities. To avoid such risks, it’s best to recognize and escape a potential crush (挤压) before it happens. First, it’s wise to prepare before you go. Looking up a map of the venue will give you a sense of the surroundings. 1 Pay special attention to all possible exits. Once you arrive, choosing the right spot is crucial. Avoid the middle or the very front; instead, position yourself at the back or around the edges of the crowd. It’s also important to trust your instincts. Stay aware and notice if you start to feel tightly packed. The more crowded the event becomes, the sooner you may need to move to a safer area. If you do end up in a crush, here’s how to stay safe. The most important thing is to stay on your feet. To do this, spread your feet apart and bend your knees slightly. 2 Trying to move against a mass of people will only lead to disaster. If you are so densely packed that you cannot move, you should try to protect your lungs. 3 . A common cause of death in a crowd crush isn’t just being trampled, but suffocation from the pressure on the chest and diaphragm. So, hold your arms out in front of your chest to create some space between you and the person in front. 4 Helping others is another vital way to keep everyone safe. 5 So if your neighbor in the crowd falls, do your best to help them up immediately. There is usually fun where the crowds are, so enjoy yourself. But remember to stay alert! A．First, it’s wise to prepare yourself before you go. B．Also, make sure to move with the flow of the crowd. C．And keep your head up to ensure a steady supply of oxygen. D．In this case, you can be in a safe spot to avoid being crushed. E．Before attending a crowded event, look up a map of the place. F．Once one person falls down, more people tend to fall over them. G．Crowd crushes can happen when people are packed tightly and begin to fall over. Passage 2 Space exploration achieved great advancements in 2024. It unlocked new potentials and encouraged countless young people to pursue grand dreams. First of all, more and more countries are joining the space race. 1 They are launching satellites, sending probes to other planets, and even planning manned spaceflights. This shows that space exploration is no longer the exclusive domain (专属领域) of a few powerful countries. Secondly, private space companies have played an increasingly important role. 2 For example, SpaceX has successfully launched many rockets and is working on ambitious projects like colonizing Mars. These companies bring new ideas and technologies to the field of space exploration. 3 Some people have the opportunity to travel to space. Some wealthy individuals have paid a large amount of money to travel to space and experience the weightlessness and the beauty of the universe. This not only satisfies people’s curiosity but also promotes the development of the space industry. Moreover, the discovery of water on the moon has excited scientists. 4 It means that there may be life on the moon or other planets in the future. Scientists are also looking for other signs of life in the universe, and they believe that we are not alone. Finally, space exploration has a positive effect on our daily life. 5 For example, the technology used in space exploration has been applied to communication, navigation, and weather forecasting, making our life more convenient and safe. A．Water is necessary for life to exist. B．It has improved our life in many ways. C．Exploring space is full of challenges. D．In addition, space tourism is becoming a reality. E．Lots of countries have started their space programs. F．They have launched their own rockets and spacecraft. G．China has made great achievements in space exploration. Passage 3 Guiding Children in Choosing After-school Activities Many children today face stress from school, friends, or competition. Nina Kaiser, a licensed psychologist based in San Francisco, reminds parents that after-school activities should not add more pressure. 1 . Kaiser points out, “Younger kids often try many activities because they are still finding out what they like — and that is normal.” So how can parents help their children choose the right activities? To begin with, parents should allow children to join in the decision-making. 2 . When they feel that their voices are heard, they often show more energy and excitement toward the activity. Next, it is necessary to value each child’s personal interests. Every child has different hobbies and talents (天资). If parents force them to do something they dislike, children may feel stressed or upset. 3 . This will make learning easier and more enjoyable. 4 . Sometimes children may want to give up on an activity. Parents do not need to decide right away. Instead, they should talk with the child, wait patiently, and think of possible changes. Through discussion, both sides can find a solution together. Lastly, parents should avoid putting too much pressure. Not every child will find his or her passion (爱好) right away. It is normal for children to face difficulties at the beginning, especially when they are still learning. 5 . A．What matters is to study something useful B．Parents shouldn’t allow them to drop the activity C．Another key point is to keep open communication D．Instead, they should give children the chance to learn and grow E．With patience and support, they will finally find what they love F．Even younger kids can share their thoughts about what they enjoy G．A better way is to choose an activity that fits their ability and interest Passage 4 Stair-climbing: A Good Way to Exercise If you are trying to lose weight, climbing stairs as a regular exercise might be for you. 1 You burn about 20 times more calories by going up stairs than walking on flat ground. Even going down stairs, you burn around five times more because your muscles have to work to slow the body. Dr. Alberto Minetti of University of Milan in Italy has done a large amount of research on human movement. “Stair-climbing is an exercise everyone can do and doesn’t cost money,” says Minetti. He suggests older people and beginners stair-climbing watch their speed.” Minetti does his own stair-climbing at his home in Milan. 2 In a study, Minetti points out that using arms in stair-climbing adds extra power. The study notes that handrails (扶手) are available along most stairs in tall buildings. 3 “They are relatively small muscles in the arms, but better than nothing,” Minetti says. “Handrails offer safety, too.” 4 Australian Suzy Walsham has won 10 races up New York City’s Empire State Building-officially 1,576 stairs — and five climbs up the Eiffel Tower. Overall, Walsham has won more than 100 international stair races. “Stair-climbing is a good form of exercise for many kinds of people,” Walsham says. “ 5 So stair-climbing is a great replacement.” A．You can lose weight gradually by climbing stairs. B．Researchers have divided opinions on the exercise. C．There is another one who is in favor of this kind of sport. D．Research shows that stair-climbing is more effective than walking. E．He says he often takes short breaks when he is going up many stairs. F．Using them increases the muscle involved by getting the arms involved. G．Many people struggle to run as they age, and the exercise is too hard on the joints. Passage 5 How to Advertise School Clubs Are you starting a new club and need more members? You’ll need to advertise in different ways to get people to join. 1 . Put an easy-to-remember message in the school’s morning talks! Start the message with something clever and exciting to get listener’s attention. 2 . Too much information might make students bored and stop listening. Instead, give them the time and location of the first meeting and invite everyone to attend! Make bright, colorful flyers (传单) and posters to hang up around the building. You could try popular styles to really catch everyone’s attention. But remember, you have to get permission first so the flyers don’t get taken down for not following the rules. 3 . Bookmarks would be a fun option, too! Set up an information desk in a busy place. Ask the school office if you can set up a table before or after school near the school’s front door. Put posters and flyers around your area and be prepared to answer questions. 4 . Once they are there, impress them with information about your club! Consider high-traffic areas like the cafeteria during lunch if you want to reach even more people. 5 . Still one of the best ways to give out information is to talk about it. Tell all of your friends about the club and ask them to tell their other friends. Talk about all the good things like what you do at meetings, how fun competitions are, etc... Say all these good things to get people excited and interested in joining. A．Keep it simple B．Get help from your teachers C．Go old-school and use word of mouth D．Ask your friends to share the posters online E．You could also create smaller flyers to pass out F．Offering drinks or small treats is a great way to get people to your table G．By following the following steps, you’ll have the best chance to build your club Passage 6 Healthy, supportive relationships are built on trust. Trust is the belief in someone or something’s ability, strength, truth or reliability. 1 You place your trust in another individual and ask that he/she places his/her trust in you. When parents and teens trust each other, it’s easier for both parties to discuss sensitive issues. Here are some tips for building trust that teens can use to create supportive relationships. To establish a trusting relationship with your parents, let them know what you need from them. Sometimes they may not realize they’re doing something that makes you worried about talking to them. You might say, “Mom/Dad, I want to tell you about some things I’m thinking about. 2 Can we figure out a way for me to share things without you reacting right away? I want to be able to talk with you openly.” 3 Parents aren’t mind-readers and many spend a lot of time worrying about their kids. When your parents trust you to stay at home by yourself, spend time with someone significant or use technology like social media to tell them how much that means to you. Being honest with your parents is the best way to earn their trust. 4 They’ll gain a better understanding of how you’re doing, both when you’re doing great and when you need their help. There will be times when you make a mistake. In those instances, it’s best to be frank with your parents. Lying is a quick way to break someone’s trust. 5 A．That’s part of growing up. B．In fact, trust is a two-way street. C．But I worry about how you’ll react. D．Tell your parents how much their trust matters to you. E．Know that regaining trust takes time and patience. F．Telling the truth gives your parents a chance to go into your world. G．Moreover, it will be even worse when parents find out from someone who isn’t you. Passage 7 Starting high school is an exciting but challenging experience. You may feel nervous about making new friends, getting used to hard courses, or getting on well in a new place. It’s common to feel too busy and tired at first. 1 Making new relationships is one of the first things you might worry about in high school. High school has lots of students who have the same interests — join a club, go to sports events, or take part in class talks. 2 Doing these things not only helps you feel less lonely but also lets you find people who love the same things as you. 3 You’ll have more homework and extracurricular activities than before, which can easily make you feel very busy. Keeping a good balance between study and free time is key to not feeling too tired. By keeping things in order, you can make sure you don’t fall behind on your schoolwork while still having time for things you like. Don’t let your pride stop you from asking for help when you need it. If you’re having trouble with a subject, talk to your teachers after class. 4 This kind of help can turn your confusion into understanding and make hard subjects feel easier to handle. Your body and mind health are the base of a successful high school life. Get enough sleep, eat healthy food, and do exercise often. 5 Taking care of yourself isn’t a waste of time — it’s the key to staying focused and full of energy during the school year. High school is a time to grow, learn, and create memories. By following these tips, you’ll be well on your way to a successful first year. A．They are always willing to help students who ask for support. B．These activities can help you meet people and make friends easily. C．You should try to do all extracurricular activities to make friends. D．You can ask your parents to do your homework when you’re busy. E．Time management becomes much more important for high school students. F．Not taking care of your health can make it harder to keep up with schoolwork. G．With the right ideas, you can make this change smoother and more enjoyable. Passage 8 A heart-stopping rescue mission unfolded in Herber-Overgaard, Arizona, when a mare (母马) and her baby became trapped in a dangerously drying mud hole. 1 The rescue began with a call from a group of photographers who had been visiting the area to photograph the famous Heber Wild Horses. They contacted Friends of the Heber Wild Horses (FWHW) for guidance on the best places to see the herds. 2 FWHW had been monitoring the area closely and had even offered to deliver water to prevent emergencies like this one — permits from the Forest Service are required for such efforts. Shortly after noon, an urgent message came through: “Help Horse trapped in mud.” Without hesitation, volunteers sprang into action, gathering ropes and enlisting the help of a neighbor. When they arrived, a local couple were already working alongside the photographers. 3 Over the course of more than an hour, they worked tirelessly to do the saving job. The baby horse waited anxiously on the bank, calling out to her mother. The rescue team worked cautiously, letting the mare rest between attempts. 4 Although shaky on her feet, she managed to stand and rejoin her baby. Together, the pair walked off into the forest-safe at last. 5 “We deeply admire the level of communication, cooperation, and determination that went into this rescue.” the organization wrote. They have since notified the Forest Service to address the dangerous condition of the mud hole to prevent future incidents. A．Ultimately, they got her safely out. B．Their heroism showed teamwork works miracles. C．They freed the baby first, then worked to rescue the mare. D．A photographer kept going back into the mud to fix the rope. E．Thanks to quick action, both horses are now safely wild again. F．At a suggested site, a dried tank had become a deadly mud trap. G．FWHW thanked everyone for the teamwork that saved the horses. Passage 9 School days mean homework, studying, exams, and social interactions — not to mention getting up early every morning. It’s understandable if you don’t always feel your happiest going to school during the week. 1 The following tips can help you feel happier on school days. Focus on the good things about school. 2 Think about the bigger picture and how your education will have a positive impact on your life in the long run. If you’ re having a bad day, tell yourself that you only have to be in school for a relatively short period of your life. After that, the sky is the limit! 3 Making other people smile can improve your own happiness. Give another student some positive encouragement. Or, thank a teacher for a fun activity or an interesting lesson. If you see someone else that looks like they might be feeling down, tell them you like their hair style or praise the work they have done. Try not to take negativity from others too hard. 4 Try to remember that nobody is perfect and think about what might be going on in their lives that makes them act negatively towards you. Try your best to sweep away a dirty look or a bad comment and move on without getting angry and upset. Reward yourself. Once you get that big A on your exam or work, don’t forget to go out and celebrate! It’s always great to reward yourself when you do something good especially when it will benefit your future in so many ways! Always believe that you can and you will go a long way! No one can change your future other than you. 5 A．Smile more often. B．Do something nice for someone. C．But it’s also something you can totally improve! D．If someone isn’t nice to you at school, it’s probably not your fault. E．Do the best of what you have, and try to have some fun along the way. F．A little positive thinking can go a long way towards improving your mood. G．Whether in school or at home, you look for ways to make learning more enjoyable. Passage 10 Are school tests a challenge for you? Are you worried about getting through your next test? Here are some strategies that can help you. Don’t overthink it. If you spend too long thinking about a test, you can focus too much on the wrong things. For example: What if I fail? What if I miss the bus that day? 1 Instead, take a few deep breaths and start preparing calmly. 2 They can tell you how the test result reflects your learning progress. You may find that the result is just a step in your study journey, and it doesn’t define your overall ability. Maybe it won’t change much in your current situation, so there’s no need to be overly anxious. Teachers are experienced and can offer valuable advice tailored to your needs. Remember to check test details. Find out when a test will be and how long it will last and if the teacher has any requirements for the way you should write your answers on the test paper. 3 Knowing whether you need a calculator, extra paper, or a specific type of pen in advance will save you from last-minute troubles. This information also helps you plan your study time effectively. Revise if you want to. Some people choose to revise for tests. However, not everyone prefers to revise, and that is OK, too. If you do want to revise, design a workable schedule for your revision and stick to it. There are different ways to revise. You could create flash cards to test your knowledge of facts, ask a friend to test you on what you’ve both learnt, and explain what you’ve learnt to an adult to practice your explaining skills. 4 Get everything ready the night before so you feel organized, and remember to take a water bottle. On the day of the test, make sure you eat a healthy breakfast and allow plenty of time to reach school. Wish your friends good luck and be confident — you can do this! 5 A．These negative thoughts will only increase your stress and harm your performance. B．It’s a good idea to review your class notes regularly. C．Talk to your teachers if you really want to understand the significance of a test result. D．Different revision methods work for different people, so pick the one that suits you best. E．You should also think about joining a study group for better study results. F．Also, double-check the necessary test materials and equipment. G．These simple preparations will make you feel more relaxed and ready on test day. Passage 11 Saying no can be difficult for many people. 1 However, learning how to say no and feel good about it is an important skill. Here are some strategies for actually doing it in a way that leaves us feeling good about our decision. One of the most important aspects of saying no is being honest and direct in your communication. 2 Being honest and direct in your communication helps to avoid misunderstandings and ultimately leads to better relationships. Using “I” statements can help to take the focus off the other person’s request. For example, rather than saying “I can’t help you move this weekend, ”you might say, “I need to take some time for myself this weekend and won’t be able to help you move.” 3 4 For example, if a colleague asks you to take on an extra project, you might say, “I’m not able to take on this project right now, but I can provide support later.” Doing so helps to soften the blow of your no. Besides, it shows you’re still willing to help. Setting clear boundaries for yourself can make saying no much easier. 5 Additionally, it prevents overcommitting and helps maintain a healthy balance in your life. In conclusion, learning how to say no and feel good about it helps us protect our time and energy, prioritizes our own needs and desires, and maintains healthy boundaries. A．It can feel uncomfortable and even guilty. B．We can say no with confidence and peace of mind. C．It helps maintain our physical and emotional well-being. D．If you want to help, you can offer an alternative to the request. E．Rather than skirting around the issue, simply state your reasons. F．In this way, you can shift the focus onto your own needs and desires. G．Knowing your priorities and limits helps you confidently decline irrelevant requests. Passage 12 So what’s high school really like? Is there more work or more stress? Will it be difficult to go from being one of the oldest middle school students to one of the youngest high school students? 1 Here are some tips for freshmen in high school. 2 There are hundreds of teens experiencing what you are experiencing this very moment! Although you may feel a million different things, just remember that there are people that are feeling the same way. Put those feelings aside and put a smile on your face! You can make new friends. At the beginning of high-school years, a lot of students will stay with the friends they already know. 3 In fact, these students would rather be out making new friends but may be too shy. So don’t be afraid to go out and introduce yourself to a new person. Don’t be afraid to ask questions. If you don’t understand something, ask your teacher! It’s possible that there are others who don’t get it either and are silently having the same question. 4 Join an interesting club or sport. High school is the time to try new things. 5 There are so many clubs to choose from, like the environmental club, the Spanish club, the cooking club, and so many more! Many schools also offer many sports, including a freshman level! Joining a club or sport is also a great way to meet people! A．You aren’t alone. B．Go to social events. C．They’ll be glad someone speaks up. D．Such worries may appear in your mind. E．Luckily high school has so much to offer. F．It seems like everyone already has a friend group. G．You can go to one of them if you have a question. Passage 13 How to overcome procrastination Procrastination (拖延), which is when you put off, tasks that you should be focusing on, can stop even the most promising career in its tracks. It can reduce the quality of your work, lead. you to miss deadlines, cause others to avoid working with you, and can even damage your reputation. 1 First, it’s important to recognize when you’re procrastinating. You might spend a lot of your time working on low-priority (低优先级) tasks from your to-do list. Perhaps you sit down to work on a high-priority project, and then immediately take a coffee break. Or maybe you wait around to be in the right mood to get started on something. 2 3 Are you overwhelmed(压垮)by the task? Are you so disorganized that you just don’t want to get started? Or, are you a perfectionist who thinks you don’t have enough knowledge or skills to begin? Once you understand why you’re procrastinating, come up with some ways to overcome it. 4 If you’re procrastinating because of disorganization, take time to prioritize your to-do list and then focus on one task at a time. Or if you’re procrastinating because of perfectionism, ask yourself how perfect the work actually has to be. And don’t forget to reward yourself. For example, have a coffee once you’ve completed a task that you’ve been putting off. 5 Remember, it can take a while to overcome a bad habit and establish a new routine, so don’t give up. A．It’s a common problem, which can cause many issues. B．The next step is to think about why you’re procrastinating. C．The good news is: there’s a lot you can do to overcome this bad habit. D．The longer you wait, the less likely you are to act on what you’ve learned. E．Everyone is different, so pay attention to when you put off a task or project. F．Not only is this motivational, but you’ll realize how good it feels when you actually finish things. G．If you’re not motivated to get started, think about all of the unpleasant consequences of not completing this task. Passage 14 I have a terrible sense of direction, so without the guide of GPS — the Global Positioning System — not only would I be lost, but also I’d feel lost. 1 . If you want to get confidence on the road or be less dependent on GPS to get around, here are some steps you can take to improve your sense of direction. Turn off your GPS and get lost on purpose. Next time you go for a walk, go down a road you’ve not walked and see where it ends up or take the beautiful road to your favorite restaurant or coffee shop. 2 . The goal is to get comfortable with getting lost and moving through the world without a map. Use landmarks to guide yourself. Not sure if you’re north, south, east or west from home? 3 . The perfect landmark is large and far away, like a big sign, a highway, or a bridge which can serve as a better mark of direction. Use memory tricks (技巧) to remember where you are. People with a good sense of direction know their streets. If you have no sense of direction, you can try some expert methods. Keep street names and roads in mind by using stories and tricks to lock things in. 4 . These methods may not turn you into an expert guide able to find your way out of being lost. 5 . And you can use them to gain a better sense of ownership over your environment. A．Driving with GPS brings trouble sometimes. B．Pick landmarks in town to help guide yourself. C．But they can reduce any anxiety about getting lost. D．It gives you an idea of how the streets are connected. E．Then see if you can make it back home without a GPS. F．This is especially helpful when street names are hard to know. G．However, dependence on GPS can lead to a narrower view of your environment.

If your friend is angry about a situation at work, help him see the positive side of things. Listen to his problem before reacting (回应). But try to help him by asking questions such as “What things can you do to make the situation better?” or “What’s been happening at work lately that has been good?” Send him a card or postcard. Not many people get handwritten notes any more. It’s so rare (稀少的), in fact, that it’s certain to put a smile on his face. Drop a note in the mail to him. 2 . Build up his self-esteem (自尊). Everyone needs to hear they are smart, strong, and beautiful sometimes. 3 , as they can help him build confidence and self-esteem. Try to make your praise unique to the person, so he knows you truly mean what you say. Try out new things together. True happiness is partly about the adventure. It may mean you may need to step outside of what’s comfortable and try something new. 4 . If you want your friends to be happy, encourage them to try new things with you. Bring him one of his favorite drinks or foods. 5 . Maybe he can’t live without an afternoon coffee, or maybe he has a special love for black forest cake.

Though rare, such incidents can be deadly when they occur. In the past, these events have caused severe injuries and even fatalities. To avoid such risks, it’s best to recognize and escape a potential crush (挤压) before it happens. First, it’s wise to prepare before you go. Looking up a map of the venue will give you a sense of the surroundings. 1 Pay special attention to all possible exits. Once you arrive, choosing the right spot is crucial. Avoid the middle or the very front; instead, position yourself at the back or around the edges of the crowd. It’s also important to trust your instincts. Stay aware and notice if you start to feel tightly packed. The more crowded the event becomes, the sooner you may need to move to a safer area. If you do end up in a crush, here’s how to stay safe. The most important thing is to stay on your feet. To do this, spread your feet apart and bend your knees slightly. 2 Trying to move against a mass of people will only lead to disaster. If you are so densely packed that you cannot move, you should try to protect your lungs. 3 . A common cause of death in a crowd crush isn’t just being trampled, but suffocation from the pressure on the chest and diaphragm. So, hold your arms out in front of your chest to create some space between you and the person in front. 4 Helping others is another vital way to keep everyone safe. 5 So if your neighbor in the crowd falls, do your best to help them up immediately. There is usually fun where the crowds are, so enjoy yourself. But remember to stay alert! A．First, it’s wise to prepare yourself before you go. B．Also, make sure to move with the flow of the crowd.

It unlocked new potentials and encouraged countless young people to pursue grand dreams. First of all, more and more countries are joining the space race. 1 They are launching satellites, sending probes to other planets, and even planning manned spaceflights. This shows that space exploration is no longer the exclusive domain (专属领域) of a few powerful countries. Secondly, private space companies have played an increasingly important role. 2 For example, SpaceX has successfully launched many rockets and is working on ambitious projects like colonizing Mars. These companies bring new ideas and technologies to the field of space exploration. 3 Some people have the opportunity to travel to space. Some wealthy individuals have paid a large amount of money to travel to space and experience the weightlessness and the beauty of the universe. This not only satisfies people’s curiosity but also promotes the development of the space industry. Moreover, the discovery of water on the moon has excited scientists. 4 It means that there may be life on the moon or other planets in the future. Scientists are also looking for other signs of life in the universe, and they believe that we are not alone. Finally, space exploration has a positive effect on our daily life. 5 For example, the technology used in space exploration has been applied to communication, navigation, and weather forecasting, making our life more convenient and safe. A．Water is necessary for life to exist. B．It has improved our life in many ways. C．Exploring space is full of challenges. D．In addition, space tourism is becoming a reality.

Nina Kaiser, a licensed psychologist based in San Francisco, reminds parents that after-school activities should not add more pressure. 1 . Kaiser points out, “Younger kids often try many activities because they are still finding out what they like — and that is normal.” So how can parents help their children choose the right activities? To begin with, parents should allow children to join in the decision-making. 2 . When they feel that their voices are heard, they often show more energy and excitement toward the activity. Next, it is necessary to value each child’s personal interests. Every child has different hobbies and talents (天资). If parents force them to do something they dislike, children may feel stressed or upset. 3 . This will make learning easier and more enjoyable. 4 . Sometimes children may want to give up on an activity. Parents do not need to decide right away. Instead, they should talk with the child, wait patiently, and think of possible changes. Through discussion, both sides can find a solution together. Lastly, parents should avoid putting too much pressure. Not every child will find his or her passion (爱好) right away. It is normal for children to face difficulties at the beginning, especially when they are still learning. 5 . A．What matters is to study something useful B．Parents shouldn’t allow them to drop the activity C．Another key point is to keep open communication D．Instead, they should give children the chance to learn and grow E．With patience and support, they will finally find what they love F．Even younger kids can share their thoughts about what they enjoy G．A better way is to choose an activity that fits their ability and interest 【答案】1．D 2．F 3．G 4．C 5．E 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要给父母如何帮助孩子选择合适的课外活动提供了一些实用建议。 1．由上文“Nina Kaiser, a licensed psychologist based in San Francisco, reminds parents that after-school activities should not add more pressure.

It is normal for children to face difficulties at the beginning, especially when they are still learning. (并不是每个孩子都能马上找到自己的爱好。孩子在一开始遇到困难是很正常的，尤其是在他们还在学习的时候)”可知，上文说明孩子找到爱好需要时间且过程中可能遇困难，空处应给出家长对应的态度和结果。E选项“有了耐心和支持，他们最终会找到自己喜欢的东西”符合语境，承接上文的情况，给出积极的预期。故选E。 Passage 4 Stair-climbing: A Good Way to Exercise If you are trying to lose weight, climbing stairs as a regular exercise might be for you. 1 You burn about 20 times more calories by going up stairs than walking on flat ground. Even going down stairs, you burn around five times more because your muscles have to work to slow the body. Dr. Alberto Minetti of University of Milan in Italy has done a large amount of research on human movement. “Stair-climbing is an exercise everyone can do and doesn’t cost money,” says Minetti. He suggests older people and beginners stair-climbing watch their speed.” Minetti does his own stair-climbing at his home in Milan. 2 In a study, Minetti points out that using arms in stair-climbing adds extra power. The study notes that handrails (扶手) are available along most stairs in tall buildings. 3 “They are relatively small muscles in the arms, but better than nothing,” Minetti says. “Handrails offer safety, too.” 4 Australian Suzy Walsham has won 10 races up New York City’s Empire State Building-officially 1,576 stairs — and five climbs up the Eiffel Tower. Overall, Walsham has won more than 100 international stair races. “Stair-climbing is a good form of exercise for many kinds of people,” Walsham says. “ 5 So stair-climbing is a great replacement.” A．You can lose weight gradually by climbing stairs. B．Researchers have divided opinions on the exercise. C．There is another one who is in favor of this kind of sport. D．Research shows that stair-climbing is more effective than walking. E．He says he often takes short breaks when he is going up many stairs. F．Using them increases the muscle involved by getting the arms involved. G．Many people struggle to run as they age, and the exercise is too hard on the joints. 【答案】1．D 2．E 3．F 4．C 5．G 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了爬楼梯作为一种锻炼方式的好处，包括其减肥效果、对老年人和初学者的建议、使用扶手的作用，以及通过一位爬楼梯运动员的例子来说明爬楼梯对不同人群的适用性。 1．下文提到“You burn about 20 times more calories by going up stairs than walking on flat ground.(爬楼梯消耗的热量是平地行走的20倍)”，直接体现了爬楼梯在热量消耗方面的优势；D选项“Research shows that stair-climbing is more effective than walking.(研究表明，爬楼梯比步行更有效)”总结了研究结论，与下文数据形成因果关系，且“more effective”涵盖热量消耗、肌肉参与等多重优势，符合题意。故选D。 2．前文提到“Minetti does his own stair-climbing at his home in Milan.(Minetti自己在米兰的家中进行爬楼梯训练)”，说明他在实际锻炼中的习惯；E选项“He says he often take short breaks when he is going up many stairs.(他说自己在爬很多层楼梯时经常会短暂休息)”具体描述了他在训练中的做法，与前文“does his own stair-climbing”形成逻辑衔接，符合题意。故选E。 3．前文提到“The study notes that handrails are available along most stairs in tall buildings.(研究表明，高楼的大部分楼梯都配有扶手)”，指出扶手的存在；F选项“Using them increases the muscle involved by getting the arms involved.(使用扶手可以通过手臂参与增加肌肉的使用)”进一步解释了扶手的作用，即通过手臂发力增强锻炼效果，与后文“They are relatively small muscles in the arms, but better than nothing”形成呼应，符合题意。故选F。 4．后文以“Australian Suzy Walsham has won 10 races up New York City’s Empire State Building(澳大利亚选手Suzy Walsham曾10次赢得纽约帝国大厦爬楼梯比赛)”为例，说明另一位支持者的事迹；C选项“There is another one who is in favor of this kind of sport.(还有另一位支持这项运动的人)”起到承上启下的作用，引出后文具体人物，符合题意。故选C。 5．后文提到“So stair-climbing is a great replacement.(因此爬楼梯是一个很好的替代方案)”，说明爬楼梯可替代其他运动；G选项“Many people struggle to run as they age, and the exercise is too hard on the joints.(随着年龄增长，许多人难以跑步，且这种运动对关节负担过大)”解释了跑步的局限性，从而引出爬楼梯作为低冲击运动的替代优势，符合题意。故选G。 Passage 5 How to Advertise School Clubs Are you starting a new club and need more members? You’ll need to advertise in different ways to get people to join. 1 . Put an easy-to-remember message in the school’s morning talks!

Trust is the belief in someone or something’s ability, strength, truth or reliability. 1 You place your trust in another individual and ask that he/she places his/her trust in you. When parents and teens trust each other, it’s easier for both parties to discuss sensitive issues. Here are some tips for building trust that teens can use to create supportive relationships. To establish a trusting relationship with your parents, let them know what you need from them. Sometimes they may not realize they’re doing something that makes you worried about talking to them. You might say, “Mom/Dad, I want to tell you about some things I’m thinking about. 2 Can we figure out a way for me to share things without you reacting right away? I want to be able to talk with you openly.” 3 Parents aren’t mind-readers and many spend a lot of time worrying about their kids. When your parents trust you to stay at home by yourself, spend time with someone significant or use technology like social media to tell them how much that means to you. Being honest with your parents is the best way to earn their trust. 4 They’ll gain a better understanding of how you’re doing, both when you’re doing great and when you need their help. There will be times when you make a mistake. In those instances, it’s best to be frank with your parents. Lying is a quick way to break someone’s trust. 5 A．That’s part of growing up. B．In fact, trust is a two-way street. C．But I worry about how you’ll react. D．Tell your parents how much their trust matters to you. E．Know that regaining trust takes time and patience. F．Telling the truth gives your parents a chance to go into your world. G．Moreover, it will be even worse when parents find out from someone who isn’t you. 【答案】1．B 2．C 3．D 4．F 5．G 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了关于青少年如何与父母建立信任关系的一些建议。 1．上文“Trust is the belief in someone or something’s ability, strength, truth or reliability. (信任是对某人或某事的能力、力量、真相或可靠性的信任。)”对信任进行定义，指出信任是相信他人的能力、真诚度和可靠性；下文“You place your trust in another individual and ask that he/she places his/her trust in you.(你会信任另一个人，同时也期望对方对你报以信任。)”强调“你信任他人，他人也需信任你”，体现“信任是双向的”；选项B“In fact, trust is a two-way street. (事实上，信任是双向的)”衔接上下文，引出“双向信任” 的核心逻辑，符合语境，与第二段中“When parents and teens trust each other”相呼应。故选B。 2．上文“To establish a trusting relationship with your parents, let them know what you need from them. Sometimes they may not realize they’re doing something that makes worry about how you’ll react. (为了与父母建立信任关系，让他们知道你需要从他们那里得到什么。有时他们可能没有意识到他们在做一些让你担心与他们交谈的事情。) ”指出，应该让父母知道你的需求以及担心，由空前“Mom/Dad, I want to tell you about some things I’m thinking about. (妈妈/爸爸，我想告诉你一些我在想的事情。)”以及空后“Can we figure out a way for me to share things without you reacting right away?(我们能不能想个办法让我和你分享而不让你马上做出反应？)”可知，作者通过举例的方式说明如何向父母表达需求并请求他们不要立刻回应，C选项“But I worry about how you’ll react.(但我担心你会有怎样的反应。)”与前文构成转折，且解释希望父母不立刻回应的原因，符合语境，“worry about how you’ll react”与上文中“worry about how you’ll react”相呼应。故选C。 3．由下文“Parents aren’t mind-readers and many spend a lot of time worrying about their kids. When your parents trust you to stay at home by yourself, spend time with someone significant or use technology like social media to tell them how much that means to you.(父母不会读心术，很多人会花很多时间担心孩子。当你的父母相信你可以独自呆在家里时，花时间和重要的人在一起，或者使用社交媒体等技术告诉他们这对你有多重要。)”可知，本段主要讲述孩子应该主动表达，告诉父母他们的信任很重要，D选项“Tell your parents how much their trust matters to you.(告诉你的父母，他们的信任对你有多重要)”概括了回应父母信任的具体做法，适合作为段首句，引起下文，符合语境。故选D。 4．由上文“Being honest with your parents is the best way to earn their trust.(对父母诚实是赢得他们信任的最好方法。)”以及下文“They’ll gain a better understanding of how you’re doing, both when you’re doing great and when you need their help.(他们会更好地理解你做得如何，无论是当你做得很好时，还是当你需要他们的帮助时。) ”可知，此空阐述对父母诚实所起的作用和益处，F选项“Telling the truth gives your parents a chance to go into your world.(说实话能让你的父母有机会走进你的世界。)”衔接上文“诚实”与下文“父母了解你”，解释了下文父母能够了解你的原因，符合语境。故选F。 5．上文“Lying is a quick way to break someone’s trust.(说谎是打破别人信任的最快方法。) ”指出说谎对于建立信任关系的危害，G选项“Moreover, it will be even worse when parents find out from someone who isn’t you.(此外，当父母从别人那里知道这件事时，情况会更糟。)”进一步说明撒谎的负面影响，补充撒谎的额外危害，强化“应坦诚”的观点，符合语境。故选G。 Passage 7 Starting high school is an exciting but challenging experience.

Your body and mind health are the base of a successful high school life. Get enough sleep, eat healthy food, and do exercise often. 5 Taking care of yourself isn’t a waste of time — it’s the key to staying focused and full of energy during the school year.

When they arrived, a local couple were already working alongside the photographers. 3 Over the course of more than an hour, they worked tirelessly to do the saving job. The baby horse waited anxiously on the bank, calling out to her mother. The rescue team worked cautiously, letting the mare rest between attempts. 4 Although shaky on her feet, she managed to stand and rejoin her baby. Together, the pair walked off into the forest-safe at last. 5 “We deeply admire the level of communication, cooperation, and determination that went into this rescue.” the organization wrote.

Are you worried about getting through your next test? Here are some strategies that can help you. Don’t overthink it. If you spend too long thinking about a test, you can focus too much on the wrong things. For example: What if I fail?

You may find that the result is just a step in your study journey, and it doesn’t define your overall ability. Maybe it won’t change much in your current situation, so there’s no need to be overly anxious. Teachers are experienced and can offer valuable advice tailored to your needs. Remember to check test details. Find out when a test will be and how long it will last and if the teacher has any requirements for the way you should write your answers on the test paper. 3 Knowing whether you need a calculator, extra paper, or a specific type of pen in advance will save you from last-minute troubles. This information also helps you plan your study time effectively. Revise if you want to. Some people choose to revise for tests. However, not everyone prefers to revise, and that is OK, too. If you do want to revise, design a workable schedule for your revision and stick to it. There are different ways to revise. You could create flash cards to test your knowledge of facts, ask a friend to test you on what you’ve both learnt, and explain what you’ve learnt to an adult to practice your explaining skills. 4 Get everything ready the night before so you feel organized, and remember to take a water bottle. On the day of the test, make sure you eat a healthy breakfast and allow plenty of time to reach school. Wish your friends good luck and be confident — you can do this! 5 A．These negative thoughts will only increase your stress and harm your performance.

Here are some strategies for actually doing it in a way that leaves us feeling good about our decision. One of the most important aspects of saying no is being honest and direct in your communication. 2 Being honest and direct in your communication helps to avoid misunderstandings and ultimately leads to better relationships. Using “I” statements can help to take the focus off the other person’s request. For example, rather than saying “I can’t help you move this weekend, ”you might say, “I need to take some time for myself this weekend and won’t be able to help you move.” 3 4 For example, if a colleague asks you to take on an extra project, you might say, “I’m not able to take on this project right now, but I can provide support later.” Doing so helps to soften the blow of your no. Besides, it shows you’re still willing to help. Setting clear boundaries for yourself can make saying no much easier. 5 Additionally, it prevents overcommitting and helps maintain a healthy balance in your life. In conclusion, learning how to say no and feel good about it helps us protect our time and energy, prioritizes our own needs and desires, and maintains healthy boundaries. A．It can feel uncomfortable and even guilty. B．We can say no with confidence and peace of mind. C．It helps maintain our physical and emotional well-being. D．If you want to help, you can offer an alternative to the request. E．Rather than skirting around the issue, simply state your reasons. F．In this way, you can shift the focus onto your own needs and desires. G．Knowing your priorities and limits helps you confidently decline irrelevant requests. 【答案】1．A 2．E 3．F 4．D 5．G 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。主要介绍对许多人来说拒绝很难，并给出如何恰当拒绝的策略，如诚实直接沟通等。 1．根据上文“Saying no can be difficult for many people.

Besides, it shows you’re still willing to help.”(例如，如果一位同事请你承担一个额外的项目，你可以说：“我现在无法接手这个项目，但稍后可以提供支持。” 这样做有助于减轻拒绝带来的冲击，此外，这也表明你仍然愿意提供帮助。)可知，此段建议在拒绝时提供替代方案。D选项“If you want to help, you can offer an alternative to the request.

For example, have a coffee once you’ve completed a task that you’ve been putting off. 5 Remember, it can take a while to overcome a bad habit and establish a new routine, so don’t give up. A．It’s a common problem, which can cause many issues. B．The next step is to think about why you’re procrastinating. C．The good news is: there’s a lot you can do to overcome this bad habit. D．The longer you wait, the less likely you are to act on what you’ve learned. E．Everyone is different, so pay attention to when you put off a task or project.

(好消息是：你可以做很多事情来克服这个坏习惯。)”承上启下，指出拖延症有很多坏处，好消息是我们可以克服这个坏习惯。故选C。 2．根据上文“You might spend a lot of your time working on low-priority(低优先级) tasks from your to-do list. Perhaps you sit down to work on a high-priority project, and then immediately take a coffee break. Or maybe you wait around to be in the right mood to get started on something. (你可能会花费大量时间去做你待办事项列表中低优先级的任务。也许你坐下来准备做一个高优先级的项目，然后立刻就去喝咖啡休息了。或者，也许你一直在等待合适的心情去做某事。)”可知，上文提出我们可能会因为各种原因拖延要做的事情。选项E“Everyone is different, so pay attention to when you put off a task or project. (每个人都是不同的，所以要注意你什么时候推迟了一项任务或项目。)”延续上文内容，指出每个人都会推延。故选E。 3．空处为段首句，为本段主要内容。根据下文“Are you overwhelmed (压垮) by the task? Are you so disorganized that you just don’t want to get started? Or, are you a perfectionist who thinks you don’t have enough knowledge or skills to begin? (你是被任务压垮了吗？你是否因为没有条理而根本不想开始？或者，你是否是一个完美主义者，认为自己没有足够的知识或技能去开始？)”可知，本段讲述的是拖延的原因。选项B“The next step is to think about why you’re procrastinating. (下一步是思考你为什么拖延。)”正是本段主要内容。故选B。 4．根据上文“Once you understand why you’re procrastinating, come up with some ways to overcome it. (一旦你理解了为什么拖延，就想出一些方法来克服它。)”可知，本段讲述的是理解了拖延的原因就想办法去克服。选项G“If you’ re not motivated to get started, think about all of the unpleasant consequences of not completing this task. (如果你没有动力开始，想想不完成这项任务的所有不愉快后果。)”与本段内容相符，指出如果没有动力，就想想不完成的后果。故选G。 5．根据空前内容“For example, have a coffee once you’ve completed a task that you’ve been putting off. (例如，完成一项你一直拖延的任务后，喝杯咖啡。)”可知，要奖励自己，如果完成了一项拖延的任务，我们可以喝杯咖啡。选项F“Not only is this motivational, but you’ll realize how good it feels when you actually finish things. (这不仅有激励作用，而且当你真正完成任务时，你会意识到感觉有多好。)”符合语境，既承接了上文的内容，又强调了奖励自己的重要性。故选F。 Passage 14 I have a terrible sense of direction, so without the guide of GPS — the Global Positioning System — not only would I be lost, but also I’d feel lost. 1 . If you want to get confidence on the road or be less dependent on GPS to get around, here are some steps you can take to improve your sense of direction. Turn off your GPS and get lost on purpose. Next time you go for a walk, go down a road you’ve not walked and see where it ends up or take the beautiful road to your favorite restaurant or coffee shop. 2 . The goal is to get comfortable with getting lost and moving through the world without a map. Use landmarks to guide yourself. Not sure if you’re north, south, east or west from home? 3 . The perfect landmark is large and far away, like a big sign, a highway, or a bridge which can serve as a better mark of direction. Use memory tricks (技巧) to remember where you are. People with a good sense of direction know their streets. If you have no sense of direction, you can try some expert methods. Keep street names and roads in mind by using stories and tricks to lock things in. 4 . These methods may not turn you into an expert guide able to find your way out of being lost. 5 . And you can use them to gain a better sense of ownership over your environment. A．Driving with GPS brings trouble sometimes. B．Pick landmarks in town to help guide yourself. C．But they can reduce any anxiety about getting lost. D．It gives you an idea of how the streets are connected. E．Then see if you can make it back home without a GPS. F．This is especially helpful when street names are hard to know. G．However, dependence on GPS can lead to a narrower view of your environment. 【答案】1．G 2．E 3．B 4．F 5．C 【导语】本文为一篇说明文，介绍了不利用GPS，培养方向感的一些方法。 1．前文“I have a terrible sense of direction, so without the guide of GPS — the Global Positioning System — not only would I be lost, but also I’d feel lost.(我的方向感很差，所以如果没有GPS（全球定位系统）的指引，我不仅会迷路，而且会感到迷路)”可知，作者描述自己方向感很差，需要借助GPS引导；后文“If you want to get confidence on the road or be less dependent on GPS to get around, here are some steps you can take to improve your sense of direction.(如果你想在路上获得信心，或者少依赖GPS出行，这里有一些你可以采取的步骤来提高你的方向感)”表明下文介绍减少对于GPS的依赖提高自身方向感的措施，推断空处应该写出依赖GPS的坏处，G选项“然而，对GPS的依赖会导致你对环境的视野更窄”与前文转折，说明对于GPS依赖的坏处。故选G。 2．前文“Next time you go for a walk, go down a road you’ve not walked and see where it ends up or take the beautiful road to your favorite restaurant or coffee shop.(下次你去散步的时候，走一条你没走过的路，看看它会停在哪里，或者走一条美丽的路去你最喜欢的餐厅或咖啡店)”表明步行时要走一条从未走过的路，不依赖GPS，E选项“然后看看你能不能在没有GPS的情况下回家”同样表明不用GPS的情况，符合语境。故选E。 3．前文“Not sure if you’re north, south, east or west from home?(不确定你是在家的北、南、东还是西边)”引出问题，空处引提出解决方案，结合后文“The perfect landmark is large and far away, like a big sign, a highway, or a bridge which can serve as a better mark of direction.(完美的地标是又大又远的，像一个大的标志，一条公路或一座桥，可以作为更好的方向标志)”可知，空处应表示利用路标，B选项“选择城里的地标来帮助你自己”符合语境。故选B。 4．前文“Keep street names and roads in mind by using stories and tricks to lock things in.(使用故事和技巧来记住街道名称和道路，以便在需要时能够迅速找到它们)”表示可以通过记住街道名称和道路来认路，F选项“当街道名称很难知道时，这尤其有用”中This指代“使用故事和技巧来记住街道名称和道路”，同样表示利用街道名称和道路来认路。故选F。 5．前文“These methods may not turn you into an expert guide able to find your way out of being lost.(这些方法可能无法让你成为一名能够在迷路时找到出路的专家导游)”表明这些方法不会让自己成为专家导游，空处应描述这些方法的实际用处，C选项“但它们可以减少迷路的焦虑”符合语境，与前文语境一致。故选C。 Passage 15 How to Cheer up Your Friend The following tips will make your friend cheer up. Try one or more of the suggestions below, and hopefully your friend will be happy again in no time. 1 . If your friend is angry about a situation at work, help him see the positive side of things. Listen to his problem before reacting (回应). But try to help him by asking questions such as “What things can you do to make the situation better?” or “What’s been happening at work lately that has been good?” Send him a card or postcard. Not many people get handwritten notes any more. It’s so rare (稀少的), in fact, that it’s certain to put a smile on his face. Drop a note in the mail to him. 2 . Build up his self-esteem (自尊). Everyone needs to hear they are smart, strong, and beautiful sometimes. 3 , as they can help him build confidence and self-esteem. Try to make your praise unique to the person, so he knows you truly mean what you say. Try out new things together. True happiness is partly about the adventure. It may mean you may need to step outside of what’s comfortable and try something new. 4 . If you want your friends to be happy, encourage them to try new things with you. Bring him one of his favorite drinks or foods. 5 . Maybe he can’t live without an afternoon coffee, or maybe he has a special love for black forest cake. Surprise him by bringing one of them to him when you know he’s having a difficult day. A．Encourage your friend B．Help him to see the positive side C．You know what your friend likes D．In turn, discover new things you love E．Don’t be afraid to tell your friend these things F．Similarly, your happiness will affect your friends G．If you include one with a funny card, that’s better 【答案】1．B 2．G 3．E 4．D 5．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如何让你的朋友振作起来的一些窍门。 1．空格处是本段主题句，根据空后的“If your friend is angry about a situation at work, help her see the positive side of things. Hear out her problem before reacting (回应). But try to help her asking questions such as, “What things can you do to make the situation better?” or “What’s been happening at work lately that’s been good?”(如果你的朋友对工作中的某件事很生气，帮助她看到事情积极的一面。在做出反应之前先听听她的问题。但试着帮助她问一些问题，比如，“你能做些什么来改善情况？”或者“最近工作上发生了什么好事？”)”可知，本段主要说明的是帮助朋友看到事情积极的一面，B选项“Help her to see the positive side(帮助她看到积极的一面)”概括了本段主要内容，可作为主题句。故选B。 2．根据第三段的主题句“Send her a card or postcard.(给她寄张卡片或明信片。)”与空前一句“Drop a note in the mail to her.(给她寄封信。)”判断，本段建议给朋友写封邮件或者寄张明信片，因此推断空格处要说她寄卡片相关的内容，G项“If you include one with a funny card, that’s better(如果你附上一张有趣的卡片，那就更好了)”，符合语境，承接上文，呼应主题。故选G。 3．根据该空后的“as they can help her build confidence and self-esteem(因为它们可以帮助她建立自信和自尊)”判断，空格处要说到一些帮助她建立自信和自尊的事情，E项“Don’t be afraid to tell your friend these things(不要害怕告诉你的朋友这些事)”提到要告诉朋友一些事情，其中的“these things”指代前面提到的有关“they are smart, strong, and beautiful”的事情，而告诉朋友这些事情能帮助她建立自信和自尊，与下文构成因果关系。故选E。 4．根据主题句Try out new things together.(一起尝试新事物)和空后的“If you want your friends to be happy, encourage them to try new things with you.(如果你想让你的朋友开心，鼓励他们和你一起尝试新事物。)”判断，本段建议和朋友一起尝试新事物，因此空格处应该提到新事物，D项“In turn, discover new things you love(反过来，发现你喜欢的新事物)”提到要发现新事物，其中的“new things”和空后的“new things”相一致，因此D选项符合语境。故选D。 5．根据空前的主题句“Bring her one of her favorite treats.(给她带一个她最喜欢的食物。)”与空后一句“Maybe she can’t live without an afternoon coffee, or maybe she has a special love for black forest cake.(也许她离不开下午的咖啡，也许她对黑森林蛋糕情有独钟。)”判断，本段建议给朋友带一些她最喜欢的美食，故C项“You know what your friend likes(你知道你朋友喜欢什么)”说到了你知道朋友喜欢什么，承上启下，呼应主题，引出下文朋友可能喜欢的食物。故选C。 试卷第1页，共3页 试卷第1页，共3页 学科网（北京）股份有限公司 $
