As we leave home to throw away rubbish,go to a party,or simply take a stroll,thoughts like

feeling well.At times,having a conversation with another person,especially someone new,is the
very last thing we want to do.
So why do we try so hard to 22 people?Is it because meeting new people feels like
a waste of time?Or are we just lazy,thinking it's too much23?
One key reason is that many young people today grow up staring at screens.Unlike older
generations who grew up talking face to face,we spend hours on social media,texting our

Another thing we may notice is that many of us get 26 in our small circle of friends

about saying the wrong thing or making a bad impression.It takes too much energy,and
eventually it becomes 28
Yet meeting new people matters.Life is short,so reach out and meet all the people we can.

Team Discussion
The team did not choose the same plan for all three students.Anna needs more independence,
but completely stopping parents'questions may not help.The team suggests Plan A because it
turns arguments into clear requests.Ben needs to understand that changing friendships do not
always mean rejection.Plan B may help if the teacher reminds him not to overthink every small
change.Clara needs safe speaking practice,so Plan C is better than forcing her to speak in front of
the whole class immediately.
The teacher says a good support plan should match the real reason behind the behaviour.
Arguing,silence and avoidance are not always the main problems.They may be signs of deeper
changes:wanting respect,fearing loss or lacking confidence.
()36.What is Anna's current problem?
A.She avoids class speaking.
B.She argues about homework.
C.She loses old friendship.
D.She overthinks body changes.
()37.Which plan is best for Clara?
A.Family Talk Sheet.
B.Friendship Map.
C.Confidence Practice
D.Silent Study Rule
()38.Why is Plan D not the best for Anna?
A.It may reduce guidance.
B.It gives too much feedback.
C.It changes friendship links.
D.It forces public speaking.
()39.What should the teacher remind Ben not to do?
A.Speak in small groups.
B.Write family needs.
C.Ask for any help.
D.Overthink every change.

A.Matching the real reason.
B.Using the same action.
C.Avoiding all discussion.
D.Solving everything fast.
()41.What does the passage mainly show?
A.Teenage changes need suitable support.
B.Parents should stop checking homework.
C.Friendship changes are always bad.
D.Class speaking should be avoided.
B.Choose the best answer.选择最恰当的答案.(I2%)
Why do some teenagers prefer being alone?
In today's highly connected world,teenagers are often expected to stay active on social media,
maintain friendships,and participate in group activities.However,recent studies have shown that
an increasing number of young people are choosing to spend more time alone.This trend has led
parents and educators to question whether such behaviour reflects a problem or a changing pattern
of personal development.
For many teenagers,solitude serves as a way to recover from the pressures of daily life
After spending hours in crowded classrooms and engaging in constant interaction,they may feel
mentally exhausted.Being alone allows them to relax,organise their thoughts,and regain
emotional balance.Activities such as reading,listening to music,or simply thinking quietly can
help them better understand themselves.In this sense,solitude is not a sign of weakness,but a
necessary part of personal growth.
However,the reasons behind this preference are not always positive.Some teenagers
withdraw from social situations because they experience anxiety,low self-confidence,or fear of
being judged.They may worry about making mistakes in front of others or feel that they do not fit
into certain social groups.In these cases,spending too much time alone can increase feelings of
loneliness and even affect their emotional well-being.
Researchers also point out that personality differences play an important role.Introverted
teenagers naturally prefer quieter environments and may gain energy from being alone,while
extroverted individuals tend to feel more comfortable in social situations.Therefore,choosing to
be alone does not necessarily indicate()a problem.
Experts suggest that the key lies in balance rather than choosing one lifestyle over another.
Teenagers should have opportunities to build relationships while also having time for
self-reflection.At the same time,parents and teachers need to pay attention to the reasons behind
such behaviour.If solitude is chosen freely,it can be beneficial;if it results from fear or avoidance.
support may be needed.
In conclusion,spending time alone is a complex behaviour with multiple meanings.
Understanding the underlying (reasons is essential for helping teenagers develop in a
healthy and balanced way.

school?
A.They are required to complete school tasks independently.
B.They need a way to recover mentally and reflect on their experiences.
C.They want to avoid communication with others completely.
D.They are not interested in any social activities.
()43.What possible negative result is suggested when teenagers avoid social situations due to
anxiety or lack of confidence?
A.They may gradually lose interest in learning
B.They may experience stronger feelings of loneliness.
C.They may become more competitive in school.
D.They may develop new hobbies by themselves.
()44.What does the underlined word "solitude"in Paragraph 2 most probably mean?
A.A state of being alone for personal benefit
B.A condition of being forced to stay at home.
C.A situation of being busy with schoolwork.
D.A habit of avoiding all communication.

For a long time,I thought growing up simply meant getting older,getting taller and making
fewer mistakes.But one experience last year changed my idea completely.
It happened when my mother had to go on a business trip for a week,and my father was busy
taking care of my sick grandfather in hospital.For the first time,I had to manage many things by
myself at home.At the beginning,I felt excited because no one was there to remind me to get up
early,finish my homework or tidy my room.However,the excitement did not last long.
On the second evening,I suddenly realized that I had forgotten to wash my school uniform,
and I had also spent too much time watching short videos instead of preparing for a maths quiz.I
felt upset and even a little helpless.That was my turning point.I understood that growing up was
not about enjoying more freedom.It was about learning to take responsibility for my own life.
The next day,I decided to make a simple plan for myself.I wrote down three things I had to
do every day:finish my homework before dinner,prepare school things for the next day,and
spend at least twenty minutes helping with housework.I did not try to make the plan perfect.I just
wanted it to be clear and practical enough to follow.
This small change helped me a lot.I no longer rushed around in the morning looking for my
books.I started to manage my time better,and I even learned how tiring housework could be.
More importantly,I began to understand why my parents were always asking me to be more
organized and responsible.
Now I believe growth is not a sudden change.It happens in everyday life,when we learn
from mistakes,solve problems and care for others.Growing up does not mean becoming perfect.
It means becoming more responsible,more independent and more ready to face the future.
Task 1:Answer the questions.
58.Why did the writer have to manage many things by himself at home last year?
59.What trouble did the writer meet on the second evening?
60.Why did the writer make a simple plan instead of a perfect one?
61.How did the writer's daily plan help him in his everyday life?
62.How was the writer's idea of growth different before and after the experience?
Task2:
63.Suppose you are the writer.Before the conclusion,you want to add one more practical tip for
teenagers to become more responsible.Please write an additional paragraph in about 30 words.
