Yes, I know it’s a dreadful bore thinking about it, but to save your tiny brains the effort, I’ve got a dead simple solution—vote for me, Ben Barton, the number one choice for Form Five. Why? Easy! Who came top of exams last year? Who’s the leading goal scorer in the school team? Who knows how to calm Mr Wilkinson down when he’s in a mood? Who hid Mrs Tollbart’s specs so she couldn’t mark our homework last week? Who will represent you best at the school council, as long as you pay me (just joking!)? Who can do juggling (杂耍) tricks with the bean bags? And just think what the alternatives are! Sally Hunt—the biggest airhead in the class? Dwayne “the Gorilla” Smith? I don’t think so. Denzil Steel-Perkins? With a name like that he’d better stay class librarian. There’s really only one choice—me! So vote, vote, vote for Brainy Ben, Isay! Dear Fellow Class Members, I’m writing to ask for your vote in the elections for Form Captain. I realize it’s hard to decide who to vote for. It’s easy to choose your best friend, or the person who shouts loudest, but it’s best to choose someone who will help the whole class. I’d like to give you five reasons for considering me. 1. I kept the class library in perfect shape last year so that we won the Tidy Books competition. 2. I saved Izzy from eating himself to death when someone (whose initials begin with BB) put too much food in his water tank (水缸). 3. I lent everyone in the class my Supertronics DVD last term, though I’m still waiting for it back from The Person Who Overfed Izzy. 4. I will campaign for an extra five minutes at break time. 5. I have already asked Mr Wilkinson if we can have after-school footie (足球) and netball. Whoever you vote for, I’ll still be your friend.

When things happen so fast, it is important for you to s 1 yourself from time to time and then to think about what you’ve been doing or learning. Self-reflection means slowing down and calming yourself. In this way, you can give your mind a c 2 to look at the things that it has already received. Some people prefer to do the self-reflection only in their mind. O 3 would rather write notes. It is decided by your own learning and thinking habits. Here are some tips on self-reflection in your study. Use natural periods in your textbooks to help reflect. School textbooks are often d 4 into units and it makes your self-reflection easier. A 5 finishing a unit, write down some notes on the new things that you have learnt in the unit. Let your mind think deeply about the notes and make some connections. This will allow you to quickly get the information back. Next, think about things that you are unsure of. For example may be you learned about a certain body part, but you’re not sure how it w 6 together with the other body parts. P 7 you learned a new way to solve a maths problem, but you’re not sure when to use it. Writing down your questions will help remind you to look for answers by studying further. W 8 self-reflection, you may continue to face the same problems you’ve always faced. Self-reflection is a very important skill if you want to achieve s 9 in your study.

If you have never taken the time to reflect, start a habit of self-reflection as soon as possible. 【答案】 1．(s)top 2．(c)hance 3．(O)thers 4．(d)ivided 5．(A)fter 6．(w)orks 7．(P)erhaps 8．(W)ithout 9．(s)uccess 10．(d)eeper 【导语】本文主要讲述了自我反思在学习中的重要性，并给出了一些自我反思的方法。 1．句意：当事情发生得如此之快时，重要的是你要时不时地停下来，然后想想你一直在做什么或学到了什么。根据“and then to think about what you’ve been doing or learning.”可知，是指要停下来思考在做什么或学什么，stop“停下”，不定式符号to后跟动词原形。故填(s)top。 2．句意：这样，你就可以给你的头脑一个机会，看看它已经接收的东西。根据“Self-reflection means slowing down and calming yourself.”可知，让自己慢下来和平静下来，能够给自己头脑一个看看已经接收到的东西的机会，chance“机会”，a后跟名词单数。故填(c)hance。 3．句意：其他人宁愿写笔记。根据“Some people prefer to do the self-reflection only in their mind.

These kinds of parks provide fun and education for tens of thousands of people each year. Amy takes care of many animals in the park, but she also does important research. As she observes the animals that she looks after carefully, she learns more about their needs and behavior (行为). This information helps the animals in the park and in the wild. It’s hard work to look after these animals. Their needs often change according to different hours of the day. So Amy must depend on her science knowledge and good number sense to help her make the right decisions all day long. Even though dolphins spend much of their time underwater, they are mammals (哺乳动物), mother dolphins must nurse, or feed milk to their babies. Amy and her team know this first-hand. One of their dolphins recently gave birth. A baby dolphin is not small, either. It was almost 1 meter long the day it was born. A big dolphin usually eats about 4% of its body weight in food every day. Amy knows that a mother dolphin that is nursing needs twice the food. So when the baby dolphin was born, Amy immediately doubled the mother’s food every day. 1．What does the underlined word “observes” in Paragraph 2 mean?

C．Swimming skills and spirit of competition. D．Science knowledge and good number sense. 4．This passage is mainly about ________. A．dolphin’s life and food B．Amy’s job at a marine park C．education in a park D．protecting animals in the wild 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．D 4．B 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要介绍了生物学家Amy在海洋公园的工作内容，包括照顾动物、进行科学研究以及利用专业知识做出决策，旨在说明她的工作对动物保护的意义。 1．第二段提到“As she observes the animals that she looks after carefully, she learns more about their needs and behavior.”，可知，Amy通过仔细照看动物来了解它们的需求和行为，这是一种观看和研究的过程，因此“observes”意为“观察”。 2．第二段指出“This information helps the animals in the park and in the wild.”，可知，Amy学到的信息有助于帮助公园里的动物以及野外的动物。 3．第三段表明“So Amy must depend on her science knowledge and good number sense to help her make the right decisions all day long.”，可知，Amy需要依靠科学知识和良好的数字感来做出正确的决定。 4．通读全文可知，文章主要介绍了生物学家Amy在海洋公园的工作，包括照顾动物、进行研究以及根据动物需求做出决策等内容，核心围绕Amy的工作展开。 Are you looking for a part-time job that suits your personality?

A study shows that more than 80% of children want to choose jobs they often see around them, like doctors and teachers—with teachers topping the list of kids’ dream jobs. But jobs such as cartoonists appear in less than 7% of their answers. This “visibility bias” holds back our imagination—we often overlook (忽视) jobs hidden outside our daily lives. Choosing a career (职业) is important because it needs to bring both income (收入) and job satisfaction (满足感). If you don’t enjoy your job, your life won’t be as happy as you wish it to be. Try looking into different possibilities! Your dream job might be something you’ve never heard of before. How can you start? First, think about your interests and strengths. These will help shape your future work. If numbers excite you, maybe you can be a scientist. If storytelling comes naturally, writing or filmmaking could be your path. And remember to talk to teachers, parents and friends. They can share ideas about different jobs. Also, think about future trends (趋势). Many jobs today, like website builders, weren’t around 50 years ago. New jobs, like AI ethics advisors (伦理顾问) might appear when you grow up. So, besides learning school subjects, you should develop skills like creativity and critical thinking. You don’t have to wait to plan. Join clubs, read books, or watch videos about different jobs. Remember: big dreams start with small actions. Whether you want to change the world or find happiness, planning today will help you reach your dreams tomorrow! 1．What does the underlined phrase “visibility bias” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A．A habit of only choosing jobs that pay a lot of money. B．A way of only noticing jobs that are often seen in daily life. C．A problem of forgetting about jobs one has heard of before. D．A mistake of thinking some jobs are easier than others. 2．Which of the following best describes the structure of the passage? A．①/②/③④/⑤ B．①/②③/④/⑤ C．①②/③/④/⑤ D．①/②/③/④⑤ 3．What can we learn from the passage? A．Most kids dream of becoming cartoonists because they are creative. B．Job satisfaction is more important than income when choosing a career. C．New jobs like website builders will disappear in the near future. D．We should think about our interests and future trends when planning a career. 【答案】1．B 2．A 3．D 【导语】本文讨论了职业规划，指出孩子选择职业存在“能见度偏差”，强调选择职业的重要性，并从兴趣优势和未来趋势等方面给出职业规划的方法和建议，鼓励人们从小行动开始规划职业以实现梦想。 1．第一段中“want to choose jobs they often see around them”以及后文解释“overlook jobs hidden outside our daily lives”，可知“visibility bias”指的是倾向于只关注日常生活中常见的职业。 2．第一段引出了孩子职业选择存在“能见度偏差”的现象；第二段阐述了职业选择的重要性；第三段和第四段分别从“兴趣优势”和“未来趋势”两个方面提出了具体的规划建议，属于并列关系；第五段总结全文并发出号召。因此文章结构为①/②/③④/⑤。 3．细节理解题。根据第三段“think about your interests and strengths”和第四段“think about future trends”可知，规划职业时应综合考虑兴趣和未来趋势。A项与原文“less than 7%”不符；B项原文强调收入和满意度两者都需要；C项原文并未提及网站构建师会消失。 Dear Jordan, Sometimes I feel the loneliness within me. It’s not that I don’t have friends— quite the opposite, actually, and that’s what makes it so strange. Even though I am surrounded by a crowd of people, I find it hard to fit in with them. What should I do? Harry Dear Harry, I’ve received your letter and see what you’re saying. Feeling lonely in a crowd may seem strange, but it’s actually very common. Even though we may have loved ones, friends and others around us, it’s still possible to feel completely lonely. There are several reasons for this. Maybe we feel out of touch with those around us or fear that they don’t or won’t understand what we are going through. No matter why we feel lonely around others, it’s important to know that this is a feeling we can overcome. Before giving you advice, I suggest that you think about what you’re trying to get out of social activities. Are you lonely and looking for companionship? Are you feeling down and looking for emotional support? Are you trying to make new friends or connect more with the friends you already have? As you think about how you’re feeling and what you’re looking for, you’ll be able to learn how to meet your needs and build better connections with others. For example, going to a party can be a great way to meet new people and have lighthearted fun. Or if you’re looking for deeper emotional support, you might want to hang out with just one or two people who you know really well. Here are some tips you can use to strengthen your present connections and make new ones. Firstly, try to spend time with friends and loved ones. Make plans, put time on your calendar and give them a call. Checking in on each other, spending time together, and giving and receiving support can improve your present connections. Another suggestion is to find a group of people with common interests. If possible, try to find something in person, such as a book club or a board game meetup. It would also be a good idea to look for chances to connect online. If you can’t find anything in person, consider joining online communities like Facebook groups, Reddit forums, or support groups. Last but not least, it’s important to get comfortable with feeling lonely on your path out of loneliness. Wherever you’re along that road, I hope my suggestions can help you.

These events show how the world is changing for young people, pushing them to think about the balance between virtual and real life, and the power of scientific exploration. ②On December 10, 2025, Australia became the first country to ban social media for anyone under 16. The government said this ban aims to protect teens’ mental health. Studies found 70% of Australian teens aged 10-15 had seen harmful content online, and half had faced cyberbullying. Social media companies like TikTok and Facebook must stop under-16s from having accounts, or they could be fined up to 50 million Australian dollars (about 232 million yuan). However, checking users’ ages is a big challenge. Some platforms use ID checks, while others use AI to analyze user behavior—but experts say these methods aren’t always accurate (精准) for teens around 16. Even worse, some teens may find ways to get around the ban, such as borrowing their parents’ accounts, which makes the rule hard to enforce (执行). ③Meanwhile, China made teenagers’ space dreams come true on the same day. The Lijian-1 Y11 rocket successfully sent nine satellites into space, including Slipers 2 Sat designed by 9 Nepali junior high students. These students got scholarships and strict engineering training to join the satellite project. The satellite will be used for water monitoring (监测) and earthquake prediction, tasks that are closely connected to people’s daily lives and safety. Chinese scientists said the project not only completes an international task but also helps young people touch the boundaries of science, inspiring more teens to fall in love with STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) subjects. ④Across the world, more countries are making rules for teens’ social media use. Denmark plans to ban social media for under-15s in 2026, while Singapore has banned smartphones in middle schools. These changes make people think deeply: how can teens balance online life and real-world growth? Whether it’s staying away from harmful online content or chasing science dreams, the future is in young people’s hands. It is up to teenagers to decide whether to let technology control them, or to use technology as a tool to improve themselves. 1．We can learn from the passage that ________. A．the Australian social media ban has been completely successful B．the Nepali students’ satellite is useless for people’s daily life C．teens may use their parents’ accounts to get around the social media ban D．China’s rocket launch is the only one that carries student-made satellites 2．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．Singapore will ban social media for under-15s in 2026. B．The Nepali students received engineering training for the satellite project. C．Australia fines social media companies 232 million yuan for every violation (违法). D．The Lijian-1 Y11 rocket sent only one satellite designed by Nepali students into space. 3．What is the main purpose of Paragraph 4? A．To explain why social media is harmful to teenagers worldwide B．To explain why teenagers should stay away from social media completely C．To prove that Singapore’s smartphone ban is better than Australia’s social media ban D．To show different countries’ rules on teens’ online activities and raise a thought-provoking (发人深思的) question 4．Which of the following is the best way to divide the passage? A．①/②③/④ B．①②/③/④ C．①/②/③④ D．①②/③④ 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．D 4．A 【导语】本文围绕2025年12月两条青少年关注的新闻（澳大利亚社交媒体禁令、中国搭载学生卫星的火箭发射），介绍了不同国家对青少年数字生活的管理政策，引发关于青少年平衡虚拟与现实生活的思考。 1．根据原文“some teens may find ways to get around the ban, such as borrowing their parents’ accounts”，可知青少年可能借用父母账号规避社交媒体禁令。 2．第3段“These students got scholarships and strict engineering training to join the satellite project”，可知尼泊尔学生为参与卫星项目接受了工程培训。 3．第4段介绍了不同国家对青少年数字生活的管理规则（如新加坡禁中学生用手机），随后提出“how can teens balance online life and real-world growth?”这一发人深思的问题。 4．文章结构：①总起，引出两条新闻；②介绍澳大利亚社交媒体禁令；③介绍中国火箭发射（学生卫星）；④总结不同国家政策并引发思考。对应①/②③/④的分段方式。 Having a teenager at home can be a real headache. Many teenagers smoke, wear strange hairstyles and even fight. Basically, they are often taking risks. Earlier studies have shown that teenagers are more likely to make irrational decisions than people from any other age group, including children and adults. Is it that teenagers are too young to tell right from wrong?   Not really. So what’s the reason? According to Laurence, a teacher from a US university, the reason is that teenagers care a lot about how their peers (同龄人) view them—that is “peer influence”. As children enter their teenage years, they spend more time with their friends and classmates, and they also care more about what they think of them.   This makes teenagers make decisions without thinking about the costs. In a test, a group of teenagers were asked to play a video driving game. When they played with their friends watching around them, they took more chances and drove more carelessly because that would increase their possibility of winning. But when they played alone, they drove more safely.   Why do peers have such a big influence on teens’ behavior? As Laurence sees it, a teenager’s brain is like a car with a good accelerator (油门) but a weak brake (刹车). The “accelerator” is fully developed by teenage years, while the “brake” is still not fully developed. When teenagers are watched by their peers, they usually push hard on the accelerator. With their weak brake, it is likely that they are going to end up in an accident. But the good news is that a violent (暴力的) teenager doesn't necessarily become a violent adult. About two-thirds to three-quarters of violent youth grow out of it. “They get more self-controlled.” 1．What does the underlined word “irrational” in the first paragraph mean? A．Quick. B．Crazy. C．Careful. D．Correct. 2．Why are teenagers often taking risks according to the text? A．They like difficult tasks. B．They care about costs. C．They are too young to tell right from wrong. D．They care a lot about what their peers think of them. 3．According to the text, with peers around them, teenagers tend to (倾向于) . A．use more self-control B．focus more on short-term benefits C．perform better than when they are alone D．become more careful about what they do 4．What can we learn from the text? A．Peer influence is bad for teenagers. B．Teenagers are easy to have traffic accidents. C．Most of the teenagers become less violent when they grow up. D．Teenagers shouldn't spend all the free time with their friends. 【答案】1．B 2．D 3．B 4．C 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，主要从心理学和神经科学的角度分析了青少年为何更容易做出冒险行为，指出同龄人的影响和大脑发育的不平衡是主要原因，并给出了积极的展望。 1．词句猜测题。根据“Many teenagers smoke, wear strange hairstyles and even fight. Basically, they are often taking risks.”以及后文将青少年与儿童、成年人的决策进行对比，可推知“irrational”在此指“疯狂的、不理智的”。故选B。 2．细节理解题。根据“…the reason is that teenagers care a lot about how their peers view them—that is ‘peer influence’.”可推知，青少年冒险是因为在意同伴的看法。故选D。 3．推理判断题。根据“When they played with their friends watching around them, they took more chances and drove more carelessly because that would increase their possibility of winning.”可推知，青少年在同伴面前更关注短期利益 (如游戏获胜) 。故选B。 4．细节理解题。根据“About two-thirds to three-quarters of violent youth grow out of it. ‘They get more self-controlled.’”可推知，大多数青少年长大后暴力行为会减少。故选C。 When you find math hard, you usually ask teachers or parents for help. But now, doctors can help you too! On Oct. 8, Shanghai opened a special clinic (门诊) for children who have problems with math and spatial (空间的) understanding. On that day, six students went there with their parents. At the clinic, doctors checked how well the students understood math and their spatial skills, and then made plans to help them learn better. They even had special educational games with VR and AR technologies to help students. A recent study found that about 8.97 percent of children at primary school on the Chinese mainland (中国大陆) have trouble with math and spatial skills, reported Shanghai Daily. Among them, 11.57 percent are in low grades, 10.07 percent are in middle grades and 4.76 percent are in high grades. The clinic is open every Tuesday. It’s very popular with days getting fully booked. Special clinics for helping with learning problems are becoming common in China, especially in big cities like Shanghai, Beijing, Chengdu, and Nanjing. However, experts remind parents that these clinics may help students, but they can’t magically turn them into top students. It’s more important to have realistic (实际的) expectations. Shi Ping from Tianjin Children’s Hospital told China Daily that putting too much pressure on kids can sometimes make learning harder. Parents should think about how they teach their kids and consider making some changes. After all, just as an expert said, “Doing well in school shouldn’t be the only thing that matters in a child’s life.” 1．The special clinic in Shanghai was opened to ________. A．provide free math courses for children B．help children build interest in math C．help children with math difficulties D．do research on children’s learning abilities 2．What can we learn from the recent study? A．Few children have strong spatial skills. B．Younger kids are more likely to have trouble with math. C．Over 10 percent of children have problems with math. D．Math problems mostly happen to primary school children. 3．How is the clinic doing? A．It is welcomed by parents. B．Few people know about it. C．People don’t trust it. D．It isn’t doing well. 4．What advice does Shi Ping give to parents? A．Focus more on children’s mental health. B．Encourage their children to work harder. C．Change how they teach their children. D．Children sometimes need some pressure. 5．What do the experts think about the clinic? A．It doesn’t help much with math problems. B．People shouldn’t expect it to solve all problems. C．Parents and children depend too much on it. D．Working hard on math weighs more than going to a clinic. 【答案】1．C 2．B 3．A 4．C 5．B 【导语】本文介绍了上海开设了一家专门帮助孩子解决数学和空间理解问题的诊所，并强调合理期望和减轻孩子学习压力的重要性。 1．细节理解题。根据“On Oct. 8, Shanghai opened a special clinic (门诊) for children who have problems with math and spatial (空间的) understanding.”可知，这家位于上海的特殊诊所是为了帮助有数学困难的儿童而开设的。故选C。 2．细节理解题。根据“A recent study found that about 8.97 percent of children at primary school on the Chinesemainland (中国大陆) have trouble with math and spatial skills…Among them, 11.57 percent are in low grades, 10.07 percent are in middle grades and 4.76 percent are in high grades.”可知，研究表明，年龄较小的孩子更容易在数学上遇到困难。故选B。 3．细节理解题。根据“It’s very popular with days getting fully booked.”可知，这家诊所很受欢迎。故选A。 4．细节理解题。根据“Parents should think about how they teach their kids and consider making some changes.”可知，父母应该考虑如何教育孩子，并考虑做出一些改变。即建议父母要改变他们教育孩子的方式。故选C。 5．推理判断题。根据“However, experts remind parents that these clinics may help students, but they can’t magically turn them into top students. It’s more important to have realistic (实际的) expectations.”可知，然而，专家提醒家长，这些诊所可能会帮助学生，但他们不能神奇地把他们变成优等生。更重要的是要有现实的期望。由此推知人们不能期望诊所解决孩子的所有问题。故选B。 When we are at an early age, we do not exactly know who we are and what kind of person we want to be.

Her coach, Jeff, had told her, “If you want to compete again, you’ll have to get back in the half-pipe.” Eva sighed. She hadn’t been in it since she’d fallen last winter. After breakfast, Dad took Eva to the mountain. When she got to the half-pipe, it was empty. Her eyes followed the smooth sides, and she blinked (眨眼), not wanting to remember But the memory pushed out along with her breath. Last winter, Eva had planned to do an “eggflip” (空翻), a special trick at the top of the pipe. As she’d started the flip (翻转), she’d misjudged the distance. Her shoulder and helmeted head had slammed into the icy packed snow before she started to fall downward. It seemed as if she’d rolled and bounced forever, her snowboard twisting hard against her knees the whole time. As Eva stood there remembering, the half-pipe blurred (变模糊) in front of her. She breathed in cold air heavily and backed away. “Where do you think you’re going?” Jeff said. “I can’t, Jeff,” Eva shouted, feeling dizzy. “I thought I could, but I can’t.” She didn’t wait for a response and rode down the slope. Days went by. Ashamed, Eva didn’t return to the half-pipe, nor Jeff’s phone calls. The weekend of the competition, Eva stayed with her aunt, On Saturday morning they were busy painting, but when the clock struck 9:00 a. m. , Eva’s mind was elsewhere. She knew that the snowboarders were getting ready. Throughout the day, Eva kept glancing at her watch. Ten-thirty. Compulsory (规定动作) in the half-pipe competition. Noon. Break for lunch. One-thirty. Freestyle. Not until she knew it was all over could Eva relax. But her heart felt heavy as she went to bed that night. “How was your weekend?” Mom asked when she picked up Eva on Sunday. “Good,” said Eva, but she was thinking about the competition. “Jeff called,” Mom said, as if reading Eva’s mind. “I left the results by the phone.” Eva nodded, grateful that Mom didn’t say more. Eva brought the list to her room and closed the door. Her friend Sherry had come first in compulsory, second in freestyle. That could have been me, Eva thought. Tears filled her eyes. Why did she have to be afraid? So what if she’d fallen? That was how you learned. Eva threw the list across the room. The next afternoon, Eva went snowboarding. She was enjoying the smooth rhythm as she glided down the slopes. On one run, Eva stopped and looked across the mountain toward the trees that hid the half-pipe. The competition was over. The snow season was nearly over, She could try again next year. But I don ’t want to wait any longer, thought Eva. 1．What did Jeff tell Eva to do in order to compete again?

Few students realize how our own personality 1 our daily life, friendship and future dream jobs. I once read a long magazine article introducing two young designers with completely different personal characters and working styles. Jack is outgoing and full of 2 ideas. He loves communicating freely with all teammates and creates new design plans every single week. Whenever he meets hard troubles, he always looks on the 3 side and never gives up easily. Though he wins lots of high praise from his leaders, he never shows off and stays modest all the time. His work partner Mike is quiet and careful in every task. However, he has a clear big shortcoming: he tends to feel worried about small things at work. 4 his teachers nor his workmates want him to lose heart and give up his design dream, but he still falls into negative moods from time to time. Our English teacher explained clearly that personality 5 by two sides: nature and environment. Some quiet or active traits we are born with are hard to 6 , but most bad habits can be improved through long-term daily practice. If you are careless with homework, check your answers repeatedly before handing them in. If you lack confidence, take part in more group speeches and class sharing activities. People with positive personalities are much more likely to realize their life goals. They never let negative worries block their steps forward. Nobody has perfect personalities, but we can keep improving ourselves to find jobs that 7 our inner character. I firmly believe all continuous hard efforts will finally 8 off as long as we never stop self-improvement. Not only confidence but also teamwork can help us stick to our dreams. Our teacher, 9 all classmates, often talks about personality development. We should think of many useful ways to fix weak points. If you practise every day, you will become 10 and achieve your goals. All the advice our teacher comes up with is worth following. 1．A．influences B．controls C．breaks D．wastes 2．A．negative B．creative C．lazy D．impatient 3．A．dark B．bright C．sad D．strange 4．A．Both B．Either C．Neither D．All 5．A．shaping B．shaped C．is shaped D．shapes 6．A．keep B．change C．create D．connect 7．A．refuse B．suit C．mention D．impress 8．A．pay B．point C．pass D．voice 9．A．as well as B．except C．not only D．rather than 10．A．succeed B．success C．successful D．successfully 【答案】 1．A 2．B 3．B 4．C 5．C 6．B 7．B 8．A 9．A 10．C 【导语】本文主要介绍了性格会影响生活与工作，性格受先天和环境共同影响，我们可以完善性格，努力奋斗实现人生理想。 1．句意：很少有学生意识到我们自己的性格如何影响我们的日常生活、友谊和未来的梦想工作。 文章主要介绍性格对生活、交友、择业产生的作用，所以性格会“影响”生活的方方面面，应用influences。controls“控制”语气过重，breaks“破坏”以及wastes“浪费”和下文讲述性格作用的语境不匹配。 2．句意：Jack性格外向，满脑子富有创造力的想法。 后文“He loves communicating freely with all teammates and creates new design plans every single week”体现Jack擅长创新，应用creative。negative“消极的”、lazy“懒惰的” 以及impatient“没有耐心的”和文中Jack积极创新的人物形象相矛盾。 3．句意：每当遇到棘手难题，他总能看到乐观积极的一面，从不轻易放弃。 后文“never gives up easily”体现积极乐观心态，look on the bright side表示“乐观看待问题”，固定搭配，应用bright。dark“阴暗的”、sad“悲伤的”表达消极含义，strange“奇怪的”不能构成固定短语。 4．句意：他的老师和同事都不希望他灰心放弃设计梦想。 neither... nor...意为“既不……也不……”，固定搭配。 5．句意：我们英语老师清晰地讲解，性格由先天本性和外界环境两方面共同塑造。 句中by是被动语态标志词，性格是被先天、环境因素塑造，需用一般现在时的被动语态，应用is shaped。 6．句意：我们与生俱来的部分安静或者活泼的性格特质很难改变，但大部分坏习惯可以通过长期日常训练得到改善。 天生特质难“改变”和后文“习惯可改善”形成转折对比，应用change。keep“保持”、create“创造”以及connect“联系”前后转折逻辑不成立。 7．句意：没有人拥有完美的性格，但我们可以不断完善自我，找到与自身内在性格相适配的工作。 全文围绕性格和择业展开，要寻找匹配自身性格的工作，应用suit。refuse“拒绝”、mention“提及”以及impress“给……留下印象”均不符合语境。 8．句意：我坚信只要我们永不停止自我提升，所有持续的努力终会得到回报。 本句表达努力会收获成果，pay off意为“取得回报，见成效”，固定短语，应用pay。 9．句意：我们的老师，还有全体同学，经常探讨性格发展的相关话题。 as well as意为“以及，还有”，它是介词短语，并非并列连词，all classmates作补充成分，不构成并列主语；谓语动词要与前面真正的主语Our teacher保持一致，因此用第三人称单数talks。 10．句意：如果你坚持每天练习，你就会变得成功，实现自己的目标。 become属于系动词，系动词后接形容词作表语，用来描述主语状态，应用successful。 Last September, Ethan and his friends were excited about starting a new school year.

Who came top of exams last year? Who’s the leading goal scorer in the school team? Who knows how to calm Mr Wilkinson down when he’s in a mood? Who hid Mrs Tollbart’s specs so she couldn’t mark our homework last week? Who will represent you best at the school council, as long as you pay me (just joking!)? Who can do juggling (杂耍) tricks with the bean bags? And just think what the alternatives are! Sally Hunt—the biggest airhead in the class? Dwayne “the Gorilla” Smith? I don’t think so.

I kept the class library in perfect shape last year so that we won the Tidy Books competition. 2. I saved Izzy from eating himself to death when someone (whose initials begin with BB) put too much food in his water tank (水缸). 3. I lent everyone in the class my Supertronics DVD last term, though I’m still waiting for it back from The Person Who Overfed Izzy. 4. I will campaign for an extra five minutes at break time. 5. I have already asked Mr Wilkinson if we can have after-school footie (足球) and netball. Whoever you vote for, I’ll still be your friend.

This has never been done before. NASA is building a rocket to go to Mars. NASA is an organization in the USA that carries out space programmes. They are now building a rocket called Space Launch System. A company called Boeing, which builds airplanes and spaceships, is helping. Tiera Fletcher is an engineer working at Boeing. She is working on Space Launch System. It will be the largest rocket ever built. Question one: What was your life like growing up? Fletcher: I grew up in a small town called Mableton. It is right outside Atlanta, Georgia. I was very interested in Maths as a kid. My mom would take me on trips to the store. She would make me calculate the price of the things we bought. Later, my interests grew. I wanted to be a mathematician. I also wanted to be an inventor and scientist. Question two: What is aerospace engineering, and how did you become interested in it? Fletcher: Engineers solve problems. They do so by making products, such as machines. Aerospace engineers work with airplanes and spaceships. I took part in a school programme at age 11. It was about aerospace engineering. I decided that I wanted to become an aerospace engineer. In high school, I studied reverse thrust. Thrust is a pushing force (力). It moves airplanes forward. Engines (引擎) create thrust to push a lot of air backward. This causes the plane to move forward. Reverse thrust is a system. It is used in planes. It changes the direction that the air is pushed from the engine. Question three: How did you come to work at Boeing, and what do you do there now? Fletcher: I worked as an intern (实习生) at Boeing. Later, the company offered me a job. Today, I work on Space Launch System. I design some of its parts. The rocket is being built and tested now. It will be the largest rocket ever created. Its goal is to send people to Mars. Question four: What challenges do you face at work and what have you done with them? Fletcher: I’m 25, African American and female. Most of the people I work with are older males. This has been a challenge. People may have unfair or negative (消极的) beliefs about me. I have been able to rise above this challenge. I work hard to prove that I can do my job well. It takes confidence and courage. Question five: What advice do you have for students who might be interested in a career like yours? Fletcher: Do your research! Also, keep an open mind. There are so many choices out there in science, technology, engineering and maths. Try them all out. Keep trying new subjects until you find what you love. Do not limit yourself! You are capable (能干的) of more, you can do more, and you can be more. Dream jobs: Rocket Designer Humans have never been sent to Mars 1 scientists have dreamed of it for a long time. NASA is now building a rocket called Space Launch System with the help of Boeing which builds airplanes and spaceships. What was Fletcher’s life like growing up? She was made to work out how much things 2 when her mom took her to the store. Then she showed a great interest in maths. She dreamed of being a mathematician, an inventor and a scientist. What is aerospace engineering, and how did she become interested in it? She took part in a school programme about airplanes and spaceships at 11 and made up her 3 to become an aerospace engineer. In high school, she studied reverse thrust. Thrust is a force which pushes the plane to move forward; and reverse thrust is a system 4 the direction of the plane. The engineer solve problems by making products and work with airplanes and spaceships. What challenge does she face and what she has done with them? As a 25-year-old female African American, people often 5 if she can do her job well. She has worked hard to prove they are 6 with great confidence and courage. What advice does she have for students who might be interested in such a career? Do research and be open in science, technology, engineering and maths. Don’t limit yourself. The more you do, the more 7 you have. 8 What does Fletcher work on at Boeing today? 9 What can we learn from Fletcher’s experience of turning her childhood interests into a successful career? 10 二、短文填空 请根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词。 Homework is as important as schoolwork. It helps you remember what you were taught during school time. But after many long hours in school, many students are t 1 of doing their homework. Here are some s 2 that can help you complete your homework easily. Complete your homework as e 3 as possible. In my opinion, the sooner you complete it, the better result you will get. Some students may not a 4 . They don’t think it might be a good idea. However, putting off your work later will only increase the risk of s 5 up late. Oppositely, if you do your homework as soon as you get home, you may have plenty of time to do other things you like. Remember, doing homework is a great way to review what you learn in school. Always be c 6 . Sometimes, you may get stuck while doing homework. You may not be able to understand or answer any questions, but you needn’t lose your confidence. Get help from your parents or grandparents at home or wait u 7 you go to school next day. Don’t worry too much if you can’t answer a question. You can study similar questions to get an idea of how to s 8 it or simply move on to the next one. Then you may think of a way to answer that question. Organize your homework. If you think there’s too much homework to do in your daily life, you can d 9 it into several parts. However, pick the harder ones or the ones that would take you the most time first. You can finish the e 10 ones after you work out the harder problems. 根据短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词。 The move away from paper train tickets has led to a surge in nostalgia and heated discussion online. Since Oct 1, China Railway Group has stopped providing paper tickets and now uses e-tickets instead. As a ticket collector, I felt a little u 1 when I heard the news. I understand the goal is to save materials, cut costs and make things more convenient for passengers. Still, for many people, paper tickets c 2 touching memories in a way that digital records s 3 can’t. I’ve been collecting train, plane and ship tickets for more than ten years. It all began when I was a child, on a family trip to visit my parents’ friends in Guangdong. Over the years, my ticket album has become a tapestry of memories. As I turn the pages, I remember the people I met, the cultures I discovered and how I grew d 4 the journey. To see paper tickets disappear feels like saying goodbye to a special part of life. I’m not a 5 . Since the new rule started, social media has been filled with “memory posts”. Many people are sharing their collections and the stories b 6 each ticket. This wave of nostalgia shows the emotional v 7 that paper tickets hold. In today’s era of rapid technological p 8 , how to properly address people’s emotional needs also deserves attention. Perhaps train companies could let passengers who prefer paper tickets request them. This wouldn’t slow down o 9 and would still help save materials. They could also offer special souvenir tickets with unique designs or even let passengers design and print their own. Such measures would keep the convenience of digital tools while meeting personal needs. Paper train tickets may be on their way out, but train companies still have the chance to give us both a g 10 , more convenient future and the real, physical memories many travelers hold dear. 根据下面短文内容及首字母提示，填写所缺单词，并将答案填写在答题卡相应位置上。 Do you ever feel like you are just running from one activity to another? When things happen so fast, it is important for you to s 1 yourself from time to time and then to think about what you’ve been doing or learning. Self-reflection means slowing down and calming yourself. In this way, you can give your mind a c 2 to look at the things that it has already received. Some people prefer to do the self-reflection only in their mind. O 3 would rather write notes. It is decided by your own learning and thinking habits. Here are some tips on self-reflection in your study. Use natural periods in your textbooks to help reflect. School textbooks are often d 4 into units and it makes your self-reflection easier. A 5 finishing a unit, write down some notes on the new things that you have learnt in the unit. Let your mind think deeply about the notes and make some connections. This will allow you to quickly get the information back. Next, think about things that you are unsure of. For example may be you learned about a certain body part, but you’re not sure how it w 6 together with the other body parts. P 7 you learned a new way to solve a maths problem, but you’re not sure when to use it. Writing down your questions will help remind you to look for answers by studying further. W 8 self-reflection, you may continue to face the same problems you’ve always faced. Self-reflection is a very important skill if you want to achieve s 9 in your study. By taking the time to reflect on learning, students can make more meaningful connections and gain a d 10 understanding of what they have learnt. If you have never taken the time to reflect, start a habit of self-reflection as soon as possible. 请认真阅读下面短文，并根据各题所给首字母的提示，写出一个合适的英语单词完整、正确的形式，使短文通顺。 I crumpled up the letter I’d been writing to my grandmother and threw it into the trash. We’d moved to the city this past winter when Mom was o 1 a new job. I missed Grandma terribly but didn’t want to worry her when I knew she was waiting to hear I had settled in. “Willa Jean,” Mom called, breaking into my thoughts. “Put on old clothes and a jacket. You’re coming with me.” Her words pulled me out of my s 2 . Mom had been so busy with her new job that I wasn’t sure she had even noticed my bad mood. Three blocks away, several of our neighbours were already gathered at a dirty corner lot. To my s 3 , the dirty lot soon became clear while we were there. Our neighbour, Mr. Smith, e 4 that the city had given us shovels (铲子), rakes (耙子), and trash bags to clean up the lot and start a community garden. The city’s only request was that we donate part of the food from our garden to add to the city’s food bank for the poor. A 5 it sounded like a lot of hard work, all of us felt excited rather than doubtful. “Let’s start” Mom said happily. When I started pulling weeds (杂草), Mom p 6 me for my hard work. She smiled warmly as she worked beside me. For someone like me who hadn’t done much farm work before, this was indeed a challenging task. However, her words gave me c 7 to continue. The afternoon sun felt comforting on my back, I found myself cheering up. Digging in the sun-warmed soil simply r 8 me of gardening with Grandma, sitting next to her—those were truly v 9 memories. “What should we plant?” Mom asked. “Tomatoes,” I answered. Grandma had always made the most d 10 sandwiches from the tomatoes in her garden “I miss those sandwiches,” Mom said softly, “and I miss Grandma, too.” I hugged her. Maybe this garden would grow a new understanding between us. 根据短文内容和首字母提示，在下文空格处填入适当的词使短文完整，写出空缺处各单词的正确形式。(每空一词) China has started a three-year “Weight Management Year” (体重管理年) from 2024 to 2027. This plan is to help people know that healthy weight is very important. A recent s 1 shows that about 15% of teenagers in China now have weight problems. W 2 are so many teens getting fat? Doctors say there are m 3 two reasons. One big reason is their eating habits. Many teens love junk food. They often eat hamburgers, French fries and ice cream.

Overweight teens sometimes feel shy about their bodies. They may be seen as lazy or weak-willed. Some of their classmates may laugh at their weight. That makes them feel even worse about t 7 .

Some schools use AI to correct students’ homework, while others use it to create personalized learning plans. Many teachers say AI helps 1 save a lot of time on routine work. However, some people worry that students might become too dependent 2 AI and lose the ability to think independently. In fact, AI is just a tool. The key is 3 we use it. If we use it properly, it can be a great helper for both teachers and students.

These kinds of parks provide fun and education for tens of thousands of people each year. Amy takes care of many animals in the park, but she also does important research. As she observes the animals that she looks after carefully, she learns more about their needs and behavior (行为). This information helps the animals in the park and in the wild. It’s hard work to look after these animals. Their needs often change according to different hours of the day. So Amy must depend on her science knowledge and good number sense to help her make the right decisions all day long. Even though dolphins spend much of their time underwater, they are mammals (哺乳动物), mother dolphins must nurse, or feed milk to their babies. Amy and her team know this first-hand. One of their dolphins recently gave birth. A baby dolphin is not small, either. It was almost 1 meter long the day it was born. A big dolphin usually eats about 4% of its body weight in food every day. Amy knows that a mother dolphin that is nursing needs twice the food. So when the baby dolphin was born, Amy immediately doubled the mother’s food every day. 1．What does the underlined word “observes” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．玩耍 B．观察 C．考虑 D．交流 2．Why is the information Amy learns very helpful? A．It helps to protect the animals in the park as well as those in the wild. B．It offers fun and education to tens of thousands of people. C．It helps dolphins to feed milk to their babies. D．It helps underwater animals to come to the surface. 3．What does Amy need to make the right decision according to this passage? A．Good eyes and quick mind. B．Love and care for animals. C．Swimming skills and spirit of competition. D．Science knowledge and good number sense. 4．This passage is mainly about ________. A．dolphin’s life and food B．Amy’s job at a marine park C．education in a park D．protecting animals in the wild Are you looking for a part-time job that suits your personality?

What do you want to be when you grow up? A study shows that more than 80% of children want to choose jobs they often see around them, like doctors and teachers—with teachers topping the list of kids’ dream jobs. But jobs such as cartoonists appear in less than 7% of their answers. This “visibility bias” holds back our imagination—we often overlook (忽视) jobs hidden outside our daily lives. Choosing a career (职业) is important because it needs to bring both income (收入) and job satisfaction (满足感). If you don’t enjoy your job, your life won’t be as happy as you wish it to be. Try looking into different possibilities! Your dream job might be something you’ve never heard of before. How can you start? First, think about your interests and strengths. These will help shape your future work. If numbers excite you, maybe you can be a scientist. If storytelling comes naturally, writing or filmmaking could be your path. And remember to talk to teachers, parents and friends. They can share ideas about different jobs. Also, think about future trends (趋势). Many jobs today, like website builders, weren’t around 50 years ago. New jobs, like AI ethics advisors (伦理顾问) might appear when you grow up. So, besides learning school subjects, you should develop skills like creativity and critical thinking. You don’t have to wait to plan. Join clubs, read books, or watch videos about different jobs. Remember: big dreams start with small actions. Whether you want to change the world or find happiness, planning today will help you reach your dreams tomorrow! 1．What does the underlined phrase “visibility bias” in Paragraph 1 probably mean? A．A habit of only choosing jobs that pay a lot of money. B．A way of only noticing jobs that are often seen in daily life. C．A problem of forgetting about jobs one has heard of before. D．A mistake of thinking some jobs are easier than others. 2．Which of the following best describes the structure of the passage? A．①/②/③④/⑤ B．①/②③/④/⑤ C．①②/③/④/⑤ D．①/②/③/④⑤ 3．What can we learn from the passage? A．Most kids dream of becoming cartoonists because they are creative. B．Job satisfaction is more important than income when choosing a career. C．New jobs like website builders will disappear in the near future. D．We should think about our interests and future trends when planning a career. Dear Jordan, Sometimes I feel the loneliness within me. It’s not that I don’t have friends— quite the opposite, actually, and that’s what makes it so strange. Even though I am surrounded by a crowd of people, I find it hard to fit in with them. What should I do? Harry Dear Harry, I’ve received your letter and see what you’re saying. Feeling lonely in a crowd may seem strange, but it’s actually very common. Even though we may have loved ones, friends and others around us, it’s still possible to feel completely lonely. There are several reasons for this. Maybe we feel out of touch with those around us or fear that they don’t or won’t understand what we are going through. No matter why we feel lonely around others, it’s important to know that this is a feeling we can overcome. Before giving you advice, I suggest that you think about what you’re trying to get out of social activities. Are you lonely and looking for companionship? Are you feeling down and looking for emotional support? Are you trying to make new friends or connect more with the friends you already have? As you think about how you’re feeling and what you’re looking for, you’ll be able to learn how to meet your needs and build better connections with others. For example, going to a party can be a great way to meet new people and have lighthearted fun. Or if you’re looking for deeper emotional support, you might want to hang out with just one or two people who you know really well. Here are some tips you can use to strengthen your present connections and make new ones. Firstly, try to spend time with friends and loved ones. Make plans, put time on your calendar and give them a call. Checking in on each other, spending time together, and giving and receiving support can improve your present connections. Another suggestion is to find a group of people with common interests. If possible, try to find something in person, such as a book club or a board game meetup. It would also be a good idea to look for chances to connect online. If you can’t find anything in person, consider joining online communities like Facebook groups, Reddit forums, or support groups. Last but not least, it’s important to get comfortable with feeling lonely on your path out of loneliness. Wherever you’re along that road, I hope my suggestions can help you.

These events show how the world is changing for young people, pushing them to think about the balance between virtual and real life, and the power of scientific exploration. ②On December 10, 2025, Australia became the first country to ban social media for anyone under 16. The government said this ban aims to protect teens’ mental health. Studies found 70% of Australian teens aged 10-15 had seen harmful content online, and half had faced cyberbullying. Social media companies like TikTok and Facebook must stop under-16s from having accounts, or they could be fined up to 50 million Australian dollars (about 232 million yuan). However, checking users’ ages is a big challenge. Some platforms use ID checks, while others use AI to analyze user behavior—but experts say these methods aren’t always accurate (精准) for teens around 16. Even worse, some teens may find ways to get around the ban, such as borrowing their parents’ accounts, which makes the rule hard to enforce (执行). ③Meanwhile, China made teenagers’ space dreams come true on the same day. The Lijian-1 Y11 rocket successfully sent nine satellites into space, including Slipers 2 Sat designed by 9 Nepali junior high students. These students got scholarships and strict engineering training to join the satellite project. The satellite will be used for water monitoring (监测) and earthquake prediction, tasks that are closely connected to people’s daily lives and safety. Chinese scientists said the project not only completes an international task but also helps young people touch the boundaries of science, inspiring more teens to fall in love with STEM (science, technology, engineering and math) subjects. ④Across the world, more countries are making rules for teens’ social media use. Denmark plans to ban social media for under-15s in 2026, while Singapore has banned smartphones in middle schools. These changes make people think deeply: how can teens balance online life and real-world growth? Whether it’s staying away from harmful online content or chasing science dreams, the future is in young people’s hands. It is up to teenagers to decide whether to let technology control them, or to use technology as a tool to improve themselves. 1．We can learn from the passage that ________. A．the Australian social media ban has been completely successful B．the Nepali students’ satellite is useless for people’s daily life C．teens may use their parents’ accounts to get around the social media ban D．China’s rocket launch is the only one that carries student-made satellites 2．Which of the following is TRUE according to the passage? A．Singapore will ban social media for under-15s in 2026. B．The Nepali students received engineering training for the satellite project. C．Australia fines social media companies 232 million yuan for every violation (违法). D．The Lijian-1 Y11 rocket sent only one satellite designed by Nepali students into space. 3．What is the main purpose of Paragraph 4? A．To explain why social media is harmful to teenagers worldwide B．To explain why teenagers should stay away from social media completely C．To prove that Singapore’s smartphone ban is better than Australia’s social media ban D．To show different countries’ rules on teens’ online activities and raise a thought-provoking (发人深思的) question 4．Which of the following is the best way to divide the passage? A．①/②③/④ B．①②/③/④ C．①/②/③④ D．①②/③④ Having a teenager at home can be a real headache. Many teenagers smoke, wear strange hairstyles and even fight. Basically, they are often taking risks. Earlier studies have shown that teenagers are more likely to make irrational decisions than people from any other age group, including children and adults. Is it that teenagers are too young to tell right from wrong?   Not really. So what’s the reason? According to Laurence, a teacher from a US university, the reason is that teenagers care a lot about how their peers (同龄人) view them—that is “peer influence”. As children enter their teenage years, they spend more time with their friends and classmates, and they also care more about what they think of them.   This makes teenagers make decisions without thinking about the costs. In a test, a group of teenagers were asked to play a video driving game. When they played with their friends watching around them, they took more chances and drove more carelessly because that would increase their possibility of winning. But when they played alone, they drove more safely.   Why do peers have such a big influence on teens’ behavior? As Laurence sees it, a teenager’s brain is like a car with a good accelerator (油门) but a weak brake (刹车). The “accelerator” is fully developed by teenage years, while the “brake” is still not fully developed. When teenagers are watched by their peers, they usually push hard on the accelerator. With their weak brake, it is likely that they are going to end up in an accident. But the good news is that a violent (暴力的) teenager doesn't necessarily become a violent adult. About two-thirds to three-quarters of violent youth grow out of it. “They get more self-controlled.” 1．What does the underlined word “irrational” in the first paragraph mean? A．Quick. B．Crazy. C．Careful. D．Correct. 2．Why are teenagers often taking risks according to the text? A．They like difficult tasks. B．They care about costs. C．They are too young to tell right from wrong. D．They care a lot about what their peers think of them. 3．According to the text, with peers around them, teenagers tend to (倾向于) . A．use more self-control B．focus more on short-term benefits C．perform better than when they are alone D．become more careful about what they do 4．What can we learn from the text? A．Peer influence is bad for teenagers. B．Teenagers are easy to have traffic accidents. C．Most of the teenagers become less violent when they grow up. D．Teenagers shouldn't spend all the free time with their friends. When you find math hard, you usually ask teachers or parents for help. But now, doctors can help you too! On Oct. 8, Shanghai opened a special clinic (门诊) for children who have problems with math and spatial (空间的) understanding. On that day, six students went there with their parents. At the clinic, doctors checked how well the students understood math and their spatial skills, and then made plans to help them learn better. They even had special educational games with VR and AR technologies to help students. A recent study found that about 8.97 percent of children at primary school on the Chinese mainland (中国大陆) have trouble with math and spatial skills, reported Shanghai Daily. Among them, 11.57 percent are in low grades, 10.07 percent are in middle grades and 4.76 percent are in high grades. The clinic is open every Tuesday. It’s very popular with days getting fully booked. Special clinics for helping with learning problems are becoming common in China, especially in big cities like Shanghai, Beijing, Chengdu, and Nanjing. However, experts remind parents that these clinics may help students, but they can’t magically turn them into top students. It’s more important to have realistic (实际的) expectations. Shi Ping from Tianjin Children’s Hospital told China Daily that putting too much pressure on kids can sometimes make learning harder. Parents should think about how they teach their kids and consider making some changes. After all, just as an expert said, “Doing well in school shouldn’t be the only thing that matters in a child’s life.” 1．The special clinic in Shanghai was opened to ________. A．provide free math courses for children B．help children build interest in math C．help children with math difficulties D．do research on children’s learning abilities 2．What can we learn from the recent study? A．Few children have strong spatial skills. B．Younger kids are more likely to have trouble with math. C．Over 10 percent of children have problems with math. D．Math problems mostly happen to primary school children. 3．How is the clinic doing? A．It is welcomed by parents. B．Few people know about it. C．People don’t trust it. D．It isn’t doing well. 4．What advice does Shi Ping give to parents? A．Focus more on children’s mental health. B．Encourage their children to work harder. C．Change how they teach their children. D．Children sometimes need some pressure. 5．What do the experts think about the clinic? A．It doesn’t help much with math problems. B．People shouldn’t expect it to solve all problems. C．Parents and children depend too much on it. D．Working hard on math weighs more than going to a clinic. When we are at an early age, we do not exactly know who we are and what kind of person we want to be. For most people, they cannot fully understand this world and set up a lifelong goal (目标) at a young age. However, knowing what you want could quicken the pace (步伐) to understand yourself and pin down the direction of your development. How to find your potential (潜力) is a serious question.

Today Eva’d head back to the half-pipe (单板U行滑雪场地), the packed-snow structure built especially for snowboarders. Her coach, Jeff, had told her, “If you want to compete again, you’ll have to get back in the half-pipe.” Eva sighed. She hadn’t been in it since she’d fallen last winter. After breakfast, Dad took Eva to the mountain. When she got to the half-pipe, it was empty. Her eyes followed the smooth sides, and she blinked (眨眼), not wanting to remember But the memory pushed out along with her breath. Last winter, Eva had planned to do an “eggflip” (空翻), a special trick at the top of the pipe. As she’d started the flip (翻转), she’d misjudged the distance. Her shoulder and helmeted head had slammed into the icy packed snow before she started to fall downward. It seemed as if she’d rolled and bounced forever, her snowboard twisting hard against her knees the whole time. As Eva stood there remembering, the half-pipe blurred (变模糊) in front of her. She breathed in cold air heavily and backed away. “Where do you think you’re going?” Jeff said. “I can’t, Jeff,” Eva shouted, feeling dizzy. “I thought I could, but I can’t.” She didn’t wait for a response and rode down the slope. Days went by. Ashamed, Eva didn’t return to the half-pipe, nor Jeff’s phone calls. The weekend of the competition, Eva stayed with her aunt, On Saturday morning they were busy painting, but when the clock struck 9:00 a. m. , Eva’s mind was elsewhere. She knew that the snowboarders were getting ready. Throughout the day, Eva kept glancing at her watch. Ten-thirty. Compulsory (规定动作) in the half-pipe competition. Noon. Break for lunch. One-thirty. Freestyle. Not until she knew it was all over could Eva relax. But her heart felt heavy as she went to bed that night. “How was your weekend?” Mom asked when she picked up Eva on Sunday. “Good,” said Eva, but she was thinking about the competition. “Jeff called,” Mom said, as if reading Eva’s mind. “I left the results by the phone.” Eva nodded, grateful that Mom didn’t say more. Eva brought the list to her room and closed the door. Her friend Sherry had come first in compulsory, second in freestyle. That could have been me, Eva thought. Tears filled her eyes. Why did she have to be afraid? So what if she’d fallen? That was how you learned. Eva threw the list across the room. The next afternoon, Eva went snowboarding. She was enjoying the smooth rhythm as she glided down the slopes. On one run, Eva stopped and looked across the mountain toward the trees that hid the half-pipe. The competition was over. The snow season was nearly over, She could try again next year. But I don ’t want to wait any longer, thought Eva. 1．What did Jeff tell Eva to do in order to compete again? A．Improve her freestyle skills. B．Take a break from snowboarding. C．Win a local competition first. D．Get back in the half-pipe. 2．Why didn’t Eva return Jeff’s phone calls? A．She got badly hurt and felt dizzy. B．She was ashamed about not beating her fear. C．She had decided to quit snowboarding. D．She was angry with Jeff for pushing her too hard. 3．How did Eva feel during the competition weekend? A．She was excited about staying with her aunt.

Few students realize how our own personality 1 our daily life, friendship and future dream jobs. I once read a long magazine article introducing two young designers with completely different personal characters and working styles. Jack is outgoing and full of 2 ideas. He loves communicating freely with all teammates and creates new design plans every single week. Whenever he meets hard troubles, he always looks on the 3 side and never gives up easily. Though he wins lots of high praise from his leaders, he never shows off and stays modest all the time. His work partner Mike is quiet and careful in every task. However, he has a clear big shortcoming: he tends to feel worried about small things at work. 4 his teachers nor his workmates want him to lose heart and give up his design dream, but he still falls into negative moods from time to time. Our English teacher explained clearly that personality 5 by two sides: nature and environment. Some quiet or active traits we are born with are hard to 6 , but most bad habits can be improved through long-term daily practice. If you are careless with homework, check your answers repeatedly before handing them in. If you lack confidence, take part in more group speeches and class sharing activities. People with positive personalities are much more likely to realize their life goals. They never let negative worries block their steps forward. Nobody has perfect personalities, but we can keep improving ourselves to find jobs that 7 our inner character. I firmly believe all continuous hard efforts will finally 8 off as long as we never stop self-improvement. Not only confidence but also teamwork can help us stick to our dreams. Our teacher, 9 all classmates, often talks about personality development. We should think of many useful ways to fix weak points. If you practise every day, you will become 10 and achieve your goals. All the advice our teacher comes up with is worth following. 1．A．influences B．controls C．breaks D．wastes 2．A．negative B．creative C．lazy D．impatient 3．A．dark B．bright C．sad D．strange 4．A．Both B．Either C．Neither D．All 5．A．shaping B．shaped C．is shaped D．shapes 6．A．keep B．change C．create D．connect 7．A．refuse B．suit C．mention D．impress 8．A．pay B．point C．pass D．voice 9．A．as well as B．except C．not only D．rather than 10．A．succeed B．success C．successful D．successfully Last September, Ethan and his friends were excited about starting a new school year. Ethan loved adventures (冒险) and laughed a lot. Lucas was quiet but very smart. Max was good at solving puzzles. Noah used a wheelchair, but he 1 let it slow him down. One day at school, Ethan heard 2 about a group of bullies. They picked on others. It wasn’t long before Ethan first met the group. One afternoon, he stayed late to finish a project.
