(阿拉伯语).
My teacher and I would meet a few times a month to
practise . .2. . and go over grammar. During our communication,
he also . .3. . details of his life. Gradually, the . .4. . of the first few
lessons gave way to comfort. I stopped feeling embarrassed and
began to open up about my own . .5. . and my struggle with

Arabic. “Don't worry; I'm here to . .6. . you. You're hard-working
and I'm sure you'll do well in it,” said my teacher. I had . .7. .
my students with similar words in my own teaching. It was . .8. .
to hear them directed at me. The tables turned.
“You are . .9. . today,” my teacher would say when I used
different vocabularies or expressions. When I heard these four
words, I got a feeling of . .10. .. It also surprised me that my
confidence could be encouraged by such . .11. . praise. That was
when I became aware of how . .12. . I had praised my students,

Ⅱ 阅读理解(每小题2.5分,满分10分)
Randall Munroe, who used to work on robots at NASA,
explains science in a fun and easy-to-understand way in his
book What If?. Once you get used to his unique writing style,
you can go on many amazing trips with him and learn while
laughing.
And you will certainly learn. There is a sort of joy in
getting real answers to the strange questions Munroe is sent
every day. However unusual the topics are, Randall takes them

seriously. For example, if you set a meat-eating dinosaur (恐龙)
free in New York City, how many humans would it have to eat
to meet its need each day? Munroe thinks New York City could
support about 350 dinosaurs. That's good to know, but we
hope we don't need to use this information.
The book's cover is a full-size picture of what the Earth
would look like if the oceans were removed. The back has some
interesting facts you might want to know before buying it
[eating the book would give you about 2,300 calories (卡路里)
if you could take in paper]. Thanks, Randall!

Although Munroe knows a lot and can perfectly explain the
science behind the questions, What If? is not a textbook. When
asked what would happen if you threw a baseball at light-speed,
he says there would be a shock wave expanding (膨胀)
outwards, and quickly moves on. He is answering the question
after all, but if you are looking for detailed classroom-style
descriptions of what Munroe is talking about, you're out of luck.
But that's what makes it great.What If? is light enough to
attract you, but deep enough to make you curious about

science one chapter at a time. If you're willing to go along with
Munroe's ideas and guesses, you're in for an exciting journey of
the mind.
【文章大意】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了兰道尔·门罗所著
的What If?一书,包括其内容、写作风格以及与读者的互动性等。

are, Randall takes them seriously. For example, if you set a
meat-eating dinosaur (恐龙) free in New York City, how many
humans would it have to eat to meet its need each day?”可知,
书中讨论了一些不切实际的情况,如恐龙在纽约市需要吃多少人类
才能满足其需求等。因此,在这本书中可以发现对不切实际情况的
讨论。故选D。

and can perfectly explain the science behind the questions,
What If? is not a textbook. When asked what would happen if
you threw a baseball at light-speed, he says there would be a
shock wave expanding (膨胀) outwards, and quickly moves on.”
可知,门罗对于书中的问题给出了直接的答案,并没有深入探讨。
因此,门罗在书中处理问题的方式是直接给出答案。故选A。

[解析] 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Randall Munroe, who used
to work on robots at NASA, explains science in a fun and easy-
to-understand way in his book What If?.”可知,门罗以有趣且易
于理解的方式解释科学;再由“Once you get used to his unique
writing style, you can go on many amazing trips with him and
learn while laughing.”可知,一旦你习惯了门罗的独特的写作风格,
你就可以在欢笑中学到知识。据此推断,门罗的写作风格既幽默又
富有教育意义。故选C。

text?

[解析] 主旨大意题。通读全文,尤其结合第一段“Randall Munroe,
who used to work on robots at NASA, explains science in a fun
and easy-to-understand way in his book What If?. Once you
get used to his unique writing style, you can go on many
amazing trips with him and learn while laughing.”可知,文章主要
介绍了兰道尔·门罗所著的What If?一书,包括其内容(讨论不切实际
的情况)、写作风格(幽默且富有教育意义)以及与读者的互动性等。
因此,最适合作为本文标题的是“What If?: a scientific adventure
with Munroe”(What If?:与门罗一起的科学冒险)。故选B。

Ⅲ 阅读七选五(每小题2.5分,满分12.5分)
If the idea of going to the office party makes you worried
or you're in a stressed state about similar get-togethers, you're
not alone. 1.___ It's part of our nature that we're concerned
about things like reputation and status.
There are some psychology findings that you might find
comforting. Here's a study that led psychologists to propose
something called the “spotlight effect”. It is the phenomenon
that we tend to think people are paying more attention to us

than they really are. 2.___ Then researchers estimated how many
people in the room noticed the T-shirts.
It turned out that the participants had massively
overestimated just how many people noticed their embarrassing
clothes. 3.___ Remember that when you're upset about what to

themselves, not watching you as closely as you might think.

4.___ Constantly monitoring your own words and behaviours
will fuel your nerves. And in the worst cases, it will lead you to
act more awkwardly. Anything you can do to try to get it out
of your head ought to alleviate (缓解) your anxiety.
Further, why not set yourself a small goal of being on the
lookout for anyone else seeming uncomfortable or left out?
There must be people feeling that way, and you could help
make their experience more positive. Above all, remember that
avoidance never helps reduce anxiety. What's more, don't expect
too much of yourself. Pace yourself, and do your best. 5.___

One possible version:
Dear Tom,
It's my great privilege/honour to record a short video
about my high school campus life for your classmates. I'm
writing to tell you what will be included in the video.
First of all, as a student, taking different classes is my
daily routine, so I would like to record a scene focusing on
one of my Chinese classes to show my academic life and
Chinese culture. In addition, a wide variety of extra-curricular
核心素养提升练
36
activities are held every day in my school and therefore
showing my after-school activities is also in my plan, from
which your classmates can learn the diversity of Chinese
high school life.
If there is anything that needs improving, please don't
hesitate to tell me. Looking forward to your reply.
Yours,
Li Hua
