It influences how we think, feel and act. Some people are naturally 1. —they enjoy meeting new people and are never afraid to speak in public. Others are quieter and more 2. —they prefer spending time alone or with a few close friends. Neither type is better than the other. In fact, both outgoing and quiet people can be 3. in their own ways. An outgoing person may be good at leading a team, while a quiet person may be excellent at deep thinking and careful planning. What matters most is to know your own 4. and use them wisely. Schools today pay more attention to helping students understand themselves. A 5. student who knows his or her personality type will find it easier to choose suitable subjects and activities.

He started by 10. himself small goals, like raising his hand at least twice in each English lesson. At first, his voice shook, but gradually he became more comfortable. His deskmate, Liu Fang, who is naturally 11. and active, also encouraged him. She often asked him to practise dialogues with her after class. After a few months, Zhou Yang noticed a big change.

He could play simple tunes on the piano by ear when he was only five. His parents were very 17. and sent him to the best music school in Nanjing. However, being a musician was not an easy choice. Wu Dong had to practise for hours every day. There were times when he felt like 18. up because his fingers hurt and he made slow progress. But his teacher told him, "Talent is just the beginning. What really 19. is hard work and perseverance." At the age of 16, Wu Dong entered a national piano competition. He was the youngest competitor and felt extremely 20. before going on stage. His hands were shaking. But as soon as he started playing, he forgot about the audience and lost himself in the music. When he finished, the hall was 21. for a moment, then burst into applause. He won first prize. That day, he learned an important lesson: being sensitive and quiet can actually be a(n) 22. for an artist, not a weakness. His personality helped him feel the emotions in the music deeply and express them through his playing. Now, Wu Dong studies at a top music conservatory. He often tells young students, "Don't let anyone tell you that your personality is wrong. Whether you are 23. or outgoing, each type has its place. The key is to find what you love and 24. to it, even when things get difficult. Your personality is part of who you are—use it to make your own 25. in the world." 16.

Registration closes on Nov. 5 D. There is no age limit B Xu Lan, 70, is a master of Nanjing gold-leaf making (金箔锻制), a skill with over 1,700 years of history. Gold-leaf is so thin that light can pass through it. Making it requires hammering gold between sheets of paper thousands of times. Xu started learning this craft at 12. "My father was very strict," she remembered. "He said gold-leaf making needs a calm heart and steady hands. If you lose focus for even a second, the gold can be ruined." It took her 12 years to become a real master. Today, Xu's gold-leaf is used in temples and palaces across China, even in the Forbidden City. But she is sad that few young people want to learn. "It takes at least five years just to learn the basics," she said. "Young people today don't want to spend so much time on one thing. They want quick results." To help save this art, Xu now teaches at a vocational school in Nanjing and gives free shows at weekends. 29. How old was Xu Lan when she started learning gold-leaf making? A. 70 B. 12 C. 17 D. 5 30. What does gold-leaf making need according to Xu? A. A calm heart and steady hands B. A lot of money C. Modern machines D. A loud voice 31. Why don't many young people learn it? A. It is too expensive B. They want quick results C. It is dangerous D. The government doesn't allow it C More schools are using personality tests to help students choose subjects and careers. These tests ask questions about your habits, preferences and values, then suggest jobs that might suit you. Supporters say this is helpful. Many students have no idea what they want to do in the future. A personality test can give them direction and make them think about their strengths. It can also reduce stress because students feel more confident about their choices. Critics, however, have concerns. First, a test taken at 15 may not show who you will be at 25—personality grows and changes. Second, some tests put people into boxes too simply. For example, labeling a quiet student as "not fit for leadership" may stop them from trying. Third, students may rely too much on test results and stop thinking for themselves. Dr. Liu, an education expert at Nanjing University, says personality tests are useful tools but should not be the only guide. "Talk to teachers, parents and people in different jobs," she advises. "Real-life experience is the best teacher." 32. What is the main topic of this passage? A. How to make gold-leaf B. Personality tests in schools C. AI in education D. How to choose a university 33. How can personality tests help students? A. They decide students' grades B. They give direction and reduce stress C. They replace career advisors D. They make students more outgoing 34. What is NOT a criticism mentioned? A. Personality changes over time B. Tests may label people too simply C. Tests are always wrong D. Students may stop thinking for themselves 35. What does Dr. Liu suggest? A. Never take personality tests B. Use tests as one of many tools C. Always follow test results D. Only talk to parents D Scientists say there are four main ways people deal with stress, which are closely linked to personality. "Fighters" are bold and direct. They face problems head-on and often do well in emergencies. "Runners" are sensitive and prefer to avoid conflict. They work best in peaceful environments. "Freezers" are careful thinkers who need time before acting. They hardly ever make rushed decisions. "Helpers" care about others and try to keep everyone happy. They are great team players but may forget their own needs. Research shows that about 45% of stress response comes from genes, and the rest from life experiences. Culture also matters. In China, many people are taught to control emotions, so "freezers" and "helpers" are common. The good news is that you can learn to manage your stress response. Understanding your type is the first step. A "freezer" can practise making small decisions quickly. A "runner" can learn to speak up when needed. No type is bad—each has value in different situations. 36. How many main stress responses are mentioned? A. Two B. Three C. Four D. Five 37. Which type faces problems directly? A. Fighters B. Runners C. Freezers D. Helpers 38. What percentage of stress response may come from genes? A. Less than 20% B. About 30% C. About 45% D. Over 60% 39. What does the passage say about Chinese culture? A. It encourages showing all emotions openly B. It teaches controlling emotions C. It makes everyone a fighter D. It has no effect on personality 40. What is the writer's main message? A. Fighters are the best type B. You cannot change your stress response C. Each type has value and you can learn to manage D. Helpers should always put others first 第 卷 非选择题 四、词汇运用 A. 根据括号中所给的汉语写出单词,使短文意思完整正确。 My aunt works as a librarian at Nanjing Library. She is a very 41.
