My First Month in Senior High
On September 1st, I walked into No. 1 Senior High School. My hands were cold and my heart was beating fast — I was really nervous. I carried a big bag with new textbooks and followed the students to my classroom.
The first hard thing was military training. We stood under the hot sun for 40 minutes. My legs hurt so much that I wanted to sit down. Then, Li Mei, a girl next to me, said quietly, “Come on, we can hold on together.” Her words made me strong. After that, we helped each other tidy our uniforms and shared our water. Slowly, I wasn’t shy anymore, and we began to laugh.
The class meeting was another important day. Our teacher asked everyone to talk about a “small goal” for this term. At first, I was afraid to speak. But when I saw my classmates talking bravely, I stood up and said, “I want to join the English club and practice speaking.” The class clapped loudly. Later, two classmates told me they wanted to join me.
Now, a month has passed. I don’t feel nervous when I walk in the school. Senior high isn’t only about exams and homework — it’s about making good friends and trying new things. I know this is just the start, and I’m ready for it.
4. Why did the author’s heart beat fast when entering the school?
A. Because the bag was too heavy. B. Because he felt nervous about senior high.
C. Because the sun was too hot. D. Because he couldn’t find the classroom.
5. Who helped the author during military training?
A. Li Mei. B. The teacher. C. His parents. D. A new friend from the club.
6. What was the author’s small goal?
A. To finish military training. B. To get good grades in exams.
C. To make 10 new friends. D. To join the English club.
7. What does the author think of senior high now?
A. It’s only about hard work. B. It’s full of new chances.
C. It’s too difficult for him. D. It’s not interesting at all.
C
The human brain remembers negative experiences more easily than positive ones. Our brains have developed in this way because threats, like dangerous animals, have a more immediate effect on people’s survival compared to positive things like food or shelter. As a result, you clearly know what makes you unhappy, but do you know what makes you happy?
Research suggests that our level of happiness is partly shaped by the choices we make. If you’ve been chasing wealth, fame, power and some material things, you may be looking for happiness in the wrong places. Psychologists suggest that the following habits can make people happier.
People who own close relationships tend to be happier than those who do not. The number of our friends is not important. What matters is the quality of our relationships. Relationships that bring happiness usually consist of the sharing of feelings, acceptance, mutual (互相的) respect and trust.
People who exercise regularly can improve both their physical and mental well- being. Some research has shown that exercise can be as effective as some medicine in treating depression.
If we are so interested in an activity, we may lose track of time, and we can be in a state of flow. The activity could be playing the piano, surfing the Internet or playing a game... People who experience flow in their work or life tend to be happier.
People are more likely to be happy if they know what their strengths are and can use them regularly. People are especially happy when they can set goals and use their strengths to achieve them.
People, who think positively by being grateful, mindful and optimistic, are more likely to be happy. Being grateful means being thankful. Being mindful means considering, focusing on, and enjoying the experiences of the present moment. Being optimistic means being hopeful about the future.
8. Why do human brains remember negative things more easily?
A. Because negative things are easy to remember.
B. Because negative things can make people live much happier.
C. Because negative things are much more important than other things.
D. Because negative things tend to affect human survival immediately.
9. According to this passage, in which of the following can people not find happiness?
A. Chasing power. B. Doing sports.
C. Playing the violin. D. Making friends.
10. In the last paragraph, what does the author try to tell us?
A. We should think more about our future. B. We should be positive in our life and work.
C. We should focus on everything in our life. D. We should only enjoy the present moment.
11. What does the passage mainly want to tell us?
A. Some habits that make people happy. B. The habits people form in their life.
C. Why people remember positive things easily. D. Why people remember negative things easily.
第二节 七选五(共5小题,每小题2.5分,共12.5分)
Ways of Studying and Learning Efficiently
Choose a quiet place to study without distractions. The more time you spend studying, the more you’ll learn and the better grades you’ll earn. ____12____ So remove all distractions (cell phones, television, loud/fast-paced music, and talkative friends/family members), to ensure a calm, focused environment.
Take short breaks from studying. ____13____ So plan to take a 10-minute break after each hour. If you get stuck on a certain topic, that’s a good time to take a little break so you can come back refreshed. Set a timer on your phone or another device so a short 10-minute breather doesn’t turn into 30 minutes of delay.
____14____ Reading books that challenge you can expand your vocabulary and comprehension skills, which is useful when a teacher assigns linguistically (语言方面的) difficult texts. If you are not already an active reader, start at your level and work your way up.
Study for quizzes and tests early. If you have a big test coming up, start studying a few days to a week before the test, or even when the test is announced. Make a study schedule, breaking up your time into sections, and stick to it. ____15____
Create mind maps of topics to help you learn new things. Mind-maps help you make connections between old and new information. ____16____ This practice is especially useful when you need to brainstorm ideas for big projects. To create a mind map, write the topic in the center, add lines that point in different directions, and write your ideas on top of the lines.
A. Remind yourself of your goals to stay motivated.
B. Read as much as you can to expand your vocabulary.
C. Your brain needs time to rest and digest information.
D. But the quality of your study time needs to be efficient.
E. These connections provide new contexts so you remember facts better.
F. Find time to study when most of your friends are doing something else.
G. Studying the night before a test doesn’t allow you to fully absorb information.

第二节 七选五(共5小题,每小题2.5分,共12.5分)
Ways of Studying and Learning Efficiently
Choose a quiet place to study without distractions. The more time you spend studying, the more you’ll learn and the better grades you’ll earn. ____12____ So remove all distractions (cell phones, television, loud/fast-paced music, and talkative friends/family members), to ensure a calm, focused environment.
Take short breaks from studying. ____13____ So plan to take a 10-minute break after each hour. If you get stuck on a certain topic, that’s a good time to take a little break so you can come back refreshed. Set a timer on your phone or another device so a short 10-minute breather doesn’t turn into 30 minutes of delay.
____14____ Reading books that challenge you can expand your vocabulary and comprehension skills, which is useful when a teacher assigns linguistically (语言方面的) difficult texts. If you are not already an active reader, start at your level and work your way up.
Study for quizzes and tests early. If you have a big test coming up, start studying a few days to a week before the test, or even when the test is announced. Make a study schedule, breaking up your time into sections, and stick to it. ____15____
Create mind maps of topics to help you learn new things. Mind-maps help you make connections between old and new information. ____16____ This practice is especially useful when you need to brainstorm ideas for big projects. To create a mind map, write the topic in the center, add lines that point in different directions, and write your ideas on top of the lines.
A. Remind yourself of your goals to stay motivated.
B. Read as much as you can to expand your vocabulary.
C. Your brain needs time to rest and digest information.
D. But the quality of your study time needs to be efficient.
E. These connections provide new contexts so you remember facts better.
F. Find time to study when most of your friends are doing something else.
G. Studying the night before a test doesn’t allow you to fully absorb information.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. G 16. E
