Light usually travels in straight lines through the air. This is how we normally see objects clearly. Light travels at different speeds in different materials. It moves faster in air, but slower in water. When light slows down at the surface, it changes direction a little. Your eyes see a shifted image. Because the light changes direction, it reaches your eyes from a different angle. Your brain thinks the straw is in a different place. So it looks like the straw is broken! 9. How does light usually travel through air? A. It moves in circles. B. It goes up and down. C. It travels in straight lines D. It bends and then stops. 10. Why does a straw look broken in water? A. Because water pressure makes the straw broken. B. Because the straw becomes smaller under water C. Because light changes direction when going into water. D. Because people’s eyes cannot see things under water. 11. Where can you probably read the material? A. In a storybook. B. In a science magazine. C. In a travel guidebook. D. In a history book. 【答案】9. C 10. C 11. B 【解析】 【导语】本文围绕“吸管在水中看起来像折断了”的现象，讲解了光的传播特性，解释了该现象的成因：光在不同介质中传播速度不同，在水与空气的交界面会改变传播方向，使得大脑误判吸管的位置。 【9题详解】 第1段“Light usually travels in straight lines through the air.”表明，光在空气中通常沿直线传播。 【10题详解】 第2段“When light slows down at the surface, it changes direction a little.”及第3段“Because the light changes direction, it reaches your eyes from a different angle. Your brain thinks the straw is in a different place. So it looks like the straw is broken!”表明，吸管在水中看起来像断了，是因为光进入水中时会改变传播方向。 【11题详解】 本文是科普类内容，讲解光的折射相关科学知识，由此可推知这类材料可能出现在科学杂志中。 B I can never talk without stuttering (口吃). Today I was taking over my friend Rat’s paper job dropping papers at neighbours’ front doors and collecting payments for the next week’s service, as he was on vacation with his parents. The first five houses on my list were easy. The envelopes (信封) were right there—in the screen door or on the mailbox, so I didn’t have to say a word to anyone. But the sixth house at 1219 Vinton was my first doorbell. I had never before in my life walked up to the front door to call a stranger. I heard the bell through the screen door, and the sound made my insides jump. Soon a man in a white shirt started toward the door and then stopped when he saw me. “I think it’s the paperboy, honey. Where’s the envelope?” A woman’s voice from the kitchen said she’d forgotten how much it was. The man walked to the screen door, “How much, son?” I knew exactly how much. Ninety-five cents. But the word “ninety” was as difficult for me to say as any word starting with P. I was thinking about saying Sixty cents because of the easy S sound on both words, but I would be losing money if I did that. I also thought about rounding it off by saying one dollar, but people might think I was dishonest. Then I tried a trick that sometimes worked at school. I threw my pencil in the air with my right hand. The moment it spun, the words left my mouth, “s-s-s-s-Ninety-five cents.” But as usual, I got nervous and it dropped onto the ground. The man opened the screen door and handed me a dollar bill. I took out a coin from my pocket and offered it to him. “Keep it, son,” he said, then turned away. My first doorbell had gone better than expected. I’d even gotten my first tip. And now I had four more houses to go and I felt a little more confident. Maybe this collecting job would be a bit easier later. — Adapted from Paperboy 12. How many houses in total did the boy need to visit that day? A. Five. B. Six. C. Nine. D. Ten. 13. Why did the boy find it difficult to say “Ninety-five cents”? A. Because he forgot the exact price. B. Because he had trouble with the first sound. C. Because he was too nervous and shy to speak. D. Because he wanted to ask for more money for the service. 14. Which of the following shows the boy’s feelings during the paper job? A. easy→worried→scared→excited B. nervous→calm→relaxed→hopeful C. nervous→scared→confident→proud D. easy→nervous→surprised→confident 15. Which of the following would be the best title for the story? A. My First Doorbell B. A Kind Neighbour C. My Favourite Job D. A Five-cent Tip 【答案】12. D 13. B 14. D 15. A 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了患有口吃的男孩帮朋友送报纸、收费时，第一次按门铃和陌生人交流的经历，展现了他从紧张到重拾自信的过程。 【12题详解】 文中第二段指出“The first five houses on my list were easy... the sixth house... And now I had four more houses to go”前5户+第6户+剩下4户，总共是10户。 【13题详解】 根据文中第七段“But the word ‘ninety’ was as difficult for me to say as any word starting with P.”可知，男孩说不出“ninety-five cents”是因为他口吃，对以/n/、/p/这类音开头的单词发音困难，对应选项B（Because he had trouble with the first sound）。 【14题详解】 男孩的情绪变化是：前5户：不用说话，感觉easy（轻松）， 第6户按门铃：紧张、心跳加速，nervous（紧张） 成功拿到钱并收到小费后：感到惊喜，最后觉得更confident（自信），对未来充满希望。 对应选项D 的情绪线：easy→nervous→surprised→confident。 【15题详解】 全文围绕男孩第一次送报时的“第一次按门铃”展开，这是他口吃、不敢说话的情况下，一次重要的突破与成长，是全文的核心事件。选项A“My First Doorbell”最能概括故事的核心内容。 C ①Have you ever noticed that some kids love going to big parties or hanging out with a group of friends, while others prefer to stay at home, read a book, or just enjoy their peaceful time? Well, there’s a reason for that! It has to do with your personality (性格). ②Psychologists (心理学家) say there are two main kinds of people: E-people and I-people. Let me tell you what they’re like. ③E-people love being around other people. They feel energized when they’re with friends, going to parties, or doing fun group activities. For them, happiness is all about sharing laughs, stories, and exciting things with others. ④I-people like quiet time. They feel more relaxed and happy when they’re alone, doing things like reading, drawing, or just watching movies. They don’t need a lot of people around to feel good. They just need themselves and their favorite activities. ⑤But here’s the cool thing: Neither way is better! Both E-people and I-people can be happy, as long as they do what they enjoy. It’s like finding your favorite taste of ice cream—some people love chocolate, while others love strawberry. Both are great, but it depends on what you like. ⑥The most important thing is to understand yourself and do what makes you happy. Life is about finding what works for you and enjoying every minute. After all, happiness is like a jigsaw (拼图)—each piece is different, but when they fit together, they make your life complete. ⑦So, whether you prefer laughing with friends or enjoying quiet moments alone, embrace your true self. Be yourself, and your life will be filled with joy! 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 16. How does the writer start the passage? A. By asking questions. B. By listing numbers. C. By telling stories. D.

To explain why people have different personalities. C. To tell people which personality is better. D. To encourage people to accept themselves and be themselves. 【答案】16. A 17. B 18. D 19. A 20. D 【解析】 【导语】本文是一篇说明文，通过对比E人和I人的不同性格特点，阐述了两种性格都无优劣之分，重要的是理解自己、做让自己快乐的事并接受真实的自己。 【16题详解】 根据文章第①段“Have you ever noticed that some kids love going to big parties or hanging out with a group of friends, while others prefer to stay at home, read a book, or just enjoy their peaceful time?”可知，作者通过提出问题的方式开始这篇文章。 【17题详解】 根据文章第③段“E-people love being around other people. They feel energized when they’re with friends, going to parties, or doing fun group activities.”可知，E人喜欢和别人在一起，当他们和朋友在一起、参加聚会或做有趣的团体活动时，会感觉充满活力，所以“energized”意思是“活跃的，有活力的”，与“active”意思相近。 【18题详解】 根据文章第④段“I-people like quiet time. They feel more relaxed and happy when they’re alone, doing things like reading, drawing, or just watching the movies.”可知，I人喜欢独处时做像阅读、画画或看电影这样的事情，即他们喜欢自己阅读。 【19题详解】 文章第①段通过提问引出关于性格的话题；分述（第②③④段）：第②段：提出 E-people 和 I-people 两种人格类型，引出核心分类；第③段：具体介绍 E-people（外向型）的行为特点与感受；第④段：具体介绍 I-people（内向型）的行为特点与感受。。第⑤段：说明两种性格没有优劣之分；第⑥⑦段：总结，鼓励人们做自己、接纳自我。对应结构：①引出话题 → ②总述 + ③④分述两种类型 → ⑤补充说明 → ⑥⑦总结升华，与选项A 的结构图一致。 【20题详解】 根据文章第⑥段“The most important thing is to understand yourself and do what makes you happy.”以及第⑦段“So, whether you prefer laughing with friends or enjoying quiet moments alone, embrace your true self. Be yourself, and your life will be filled with joy!”可知，文章的主要目的是鼓励人们接受自己、做自己。 二、完形填空(共10小题；每小题1分，满分10分) Knowing about yourself means not only that you find out what you’re good at and what you like, but it also means discovering what you’re not good at and what you don’t like.

Dogs are seen as friendly and laid-back. Do these stereotypes (刻板印象) have any basis in reality? Psychologist Sam Gosling asked pet owners to describe their own personalities. Cat people tend to be solitary—enjoy spending time alone. They are also more creative. Dog people tend to be outgoing, energetic and relaxed. They are more likely to see themselves as “responsible and loyal”. Asking people to describe their own personalities has limits. Everyone wants to look good. So researchers used object recognition technology to identify users who posted pictures of cats or dogs on social media. This way, they can know people’s real personalities. Dog people looked more social and easygoing. They averaged more friends on social media than cat people and posted more often about feeling proud or excited. Cat people were more likely to be single and to post about feeling tired, annoyed, or sad. But cat people also seemed more intellectual and open-minded. They liked social media pages about books, TV shows, and movies more than dog people did. Sometimes people disagree with these findings because they can think of exceptions. Some cat owners are outgoing. Some dog owners are worriers. That doesn’t make research on cat and dog people wrong. Most research focuses on groups of people. It describes what is true in general, not what is true for each individual. Pet owners’ personalities might affect pet preferences (偏好) because people choose pets that they think match their personalities. It seems logical for people who like alone time to choose cats.

When light slows down at the surface, it changes direction a little. Your eyes see a shifted image. Because the light changes direction, it reaches your eyes from a different angle. Your brain thinks the straw is in a different place. So it looks like the straw is broken! 9. How does light usually travel through air? A. It moves in circles. B. It goes up and down. C.

Today I was taking over my friend Rat’s paper job dropping papers at neighbours’ front doors and collecting payments for the next week’s service, as he was on vacation with his parents. The first five houses on my list were easy. The envelopes (信封) were right there—in the screen door or on the mailbox, so I didn’t have to say a word to anyone. But the sixth house at 1219 Vinton was my first doorbell. I had never before in my life walked up to the front door to call a stranger. I heard the bell through the screen door, and the sound made my insides jump. Soon a man in a white shirt started toward the door and then stopped when he saw me. “I think it’s the paperboy, honey. Where’s the envelope?” A woman’s voice from the kitchen said she’d forgotten how much it was. The man walked to the screen door, “How much, son?” I knew exactly how much. Ninety-five cents. But the word “ninety” was as difficult for me to say as any word starting with P. I was thinking about saying Sixty cents because of the easy S sound on both words, but I would be losing money if I did that. I also thought about rounding it off by saying one dollar, but people might think I was dishonest. Then I tried a trick that sometimes worked at school. I threw my pencil in the air with my right hand. The moment it spun, the words left my mouth, “s-s-s-s-Ninety-five cents.” But as usual, I got nervous and it dropped onto the ground. The man opened the screen door and handed me a dollar bill. I took out a coin from my pocket and offered it to him. “Keep it, son,” he said, then turned away. My first doorbell had gone better than expected. I’d even gotten my first tip. And now I had four more houses to go and I felt a little more confident. Maybe this collecting job would be a bit easier later. — Adapted from Paperboy 12. How many houses in total did the boy need to visit that day? A. Five. B. Six. C. Nine. D. Ten. 13. Why did the boy find it difficult to say “Ninety-five cents”? A. Because he forgot the exact price. B. Because he had trouble with the first sound. C. Because he was too nervous and shy to speak. D. Because he wanted to ask for more money for the service. 14. Which of the following shows the boy’s feelings during the paper job? A. easy→worried→scared→excited B. nervous→calm→relaxed→hopeful C. nervous→scared→confident→proud D. easy→nervous→surprised→confident 15. Which of the following would be the best title for the story? A. My First Doorbell B. A Kind Neighbour C. My Favourite Job D. A Five-cent Tip C ①Have you ever noticed that some kids love going to big parties or hanging out with a group of friends, while others prefer to stay at home, read a book, or just enjoy their peaceful time? Well, there’s a reason for that! It has to do with your personality (性格). ②Psychologists (心理学家) say there are two main kinds of people: E-people and I-people. Let me tell you what they’re like. ③E-people love being around other people. They feel energized when they’re with friends, going to parties, or doing fun group activities. For them, happiness is all about sharing laughs, stories, and exciting things with others. ④I-people like quiet time. They feel more relaxed and happy when they’re alone, doing things like reading, drawing, or just watching movies. They don’t need a lot of people around to feel good. They just need themselves and their favorite activities. ⑤But here’s the cool thing: Neither way is better! Both E-people and I-people can be happy, as long as they do what they enjoy. It’s like finding your favorite taste of ice cream—some people love chocolate, while others love strawberry. Both are great, but it depends on what you like. ⑥The most important thing is to understand yourself and do what makes you happy. Life is about finding what works for you and enjoying every minute. After all, happiness is like a jigsaw (拼图)—each piece is different, but when they fit together, they make your life complete. ⑦So, whether you prefer laughing with friends or enjoying quiet moments alone, embrace your true self. Be yourself, and your life will be filled with joy! 根据短文内容，选择最佳答案。 16. How does the writer start the passage? A. By asking questions. B. By listing numbers. C. By telling stories. D.

Dogs are seen as friendly and laid-back. Do these stereotypes (刻板印象) have any basis in reality? Psychologist Sam Gosling asked pet owners to describe their own personalities. Cat people tend to be solitary—enjoy spending time alone. They are also more creative. Dog people tend to be outgoing, energetic and relaxed. They are more likely to see themselves as “responsible and loyal”. Asking people to describe their own personalities has limits. Everyone wants to look good. So researchers used object recognition technology to identify users who posted pictures of cats or dogs on social media. This way, they can know people’s real personalities. Dog people looked more social and easygoing. They averaged more friends on social media than cat people and posted more often about feeling proud or excited. Cat people were more likely to be single and to post about feeling tired, annoyed, or sad. But cat people also seemed more intellectual and open-minded. They liked social media pages about books, TV shows, and movies more than dog people did. Sometimes people disagree with these findings because they can think of exceptions. Some cat owners are outgoing. Some dog owners are worriers. That doesn’t make research on cat and dog people wrong. Most research focuses on groups of people. It describes what is true in general, not what is true for each individual. Pet owners’ personalities might affect pet preferences (偏好) because people choose pets that they think match their personalities. It seems logical for people who like alone time to choose cats. It makes sense for active, outgoing people to choose dogs. But it may not be that simple. Pet choices also might influence pet owners’ personalities, “It wouldn’t be surprising if it works both ways,” Gosling says. 51.
