Tom looked up and said, “It’s too high! I can’t reach it.”

1.句意:她们的生活真的没有什么特别的,但也没有什么真正消极的。
前文提到“They both live a common life.”(她们都过着普通的生活)。“common”意味着平凡,所以她们的生活中没有什么“特别的(special)”事情,但也没有什么消极的事情。special(特别的)符合语境。
2.句意:然而,似乎Amy总是比Susan更快乐。
后文提到“She is positive and always has a big smile...”(她很积极,总是面带微笑),并且整段都在对比两人的快乐程度,说明Amy总是比Susan更“快乐(happier)”。happier(更快乐)符合语境。
3.句意:看起来没有什么能困扰Amy。
因为Amy总是很积极、总是微笑,所以看起来“没有什么(nothing)”能困扰(trouble)她。nothing(没有什么)符合语境。
4.句意:她很乐观,脸上总是挂着灿烂的笑容。
固定搭配“on one’s face”意为“在某人的脸上”。笑容(smile)是在脸上。face(脸)符合语境。
5.句意:她们两人过着如此相似的生活,为什么Amy这么快乐?
后文列举了她们去同样的商店、看同样的电影、有相似的时间表,说明她们过着“相似的(similar)”生活。similar(相似的)符合语境。
6.句意:她们去同样的商店,看同样的电影,甚至作息时间也差不多。
固定搭配:watch movies意为“看电影”,watch(观看)符合语境。
7.句意:就算事情进展得不那么顺利,是什么让艾米依旧如此快乐?
固定搭配“things go well”意为“事情进展顺利”。这里指即使事情进展不顺利时,Amy也很快乐。助动词don’t后面用动词原形go符合语境。
8.句意:Susan想不出为什么Amy会如此快乐。
Susan想不通(不能想出)为什么Amy这么快乐。文章是过去时态,所以用couldn’t(不能)符合语境。
9.句意:当她就这件事询问Amy时,艾米说道:“我只是在有必要的时候才去做事。那样事情就变得很简单。”
Susan想不通,所以当她“问”Amy关于这件事时,Amy回答了。固定搭配:ask sb. about sth.意为“向某人询问某事”。时态是过去式,用asked(询问)符合语境。
10.句意:当她就这件事询问Amy时,艾米说道:“我只是在有必要的时候才去做事。那样事情就变得很简单。”
Amy解释说:“我只是在有必要的时候才做事情。”强调她不做多余的事,心态轻松,just(只是)符合语境。
11.句意:这两个朋友之间的区别是什么?
固定搭配“the difference between A and B”,意为“A和B之间的区别”。这里指这两个朋友之间的区别,between(在……之间)符合语境。
12.句意:苏珊的问题在于她给自己太大压力,不仅是身体上,还有思想上。
对应前面的physically(身体上),这里指心理或精神上的压力,即“头脑/精神”上的压力。与physically(身体)对应的是mind(思想)符合语境。
13.句意:她试图同时做很多事情,但是Amy用另一种方式处理事情。
前半句说Susan试图同时做很多事,后半句说Amy用另一种方式工作,前后形成对比转折关系。but(但是)符合语境。
14.句意:她一步一步地做事,一次只专注做一件事。
Amy一次只做一件事,说明她非常“专注”于这一件事,focuses on(专注于)符合语境。
15.句意:你的幸福由你自己决定。
文章最后总结:你的幸福由你自己来“决定”。这是一种常见的生活哲理表达。decide(决定)符合语境。

One day, Tom came to his teacher and asked, “Sir, I have a question. How many friends should a person have—one or many?”
“It is very simple,” the teacher answered, “Get me that red apple from the highest branch (树枝) of the tree.”
Tom looked up and said, “It’s too high! I can’t reach it.”
“Ask a friend. Maybe he can help,” the teacher suggested.
Tom called another student and stood on his shoulders to reach the branch. “I still can’t reach it, sir,” said Tom sadly after the first try.
“Don’t you have more friends?” the teacher smiled.
Tom asked more friends to come over. They stood on each other’s shoulders, trying to make a human pyramid (金字塔). But the apple was so high that they couldn’t go higher and the pyramid fell. Tom still couldn’t reach the apple.
Then one of the friends went home, brought a ladder (梯子) and Tom finally picked the apple.
After getting the apple, the teacher asked, “So, do you understand how many friends a person needs?”
“Yes, I do,” Tom said. “Many, so together we can work out any problem.”

Have you ever had problems with your best friend? In fact, even the closest friends may fight if they lack understanding or enough communication.
Emma and Lily had been best friends since junior high school. They used to share secrets, hobbies, and lots of laughter. But things changed when Emma joined a science club. She spent much less time with Lily, who soon felt uncomfortable and ignored (被忽视的). One day, Lily posted a sad message online: “Some people forget old friends when they make new ones.” Emma saw it and thought Lily was laughing at her. They stopped talking to each other, and their friendship seemed ruined.
A week later, Emma felt hurt and turned to her teacher Mrs. Li for help. Mrs. Li gave her three tips:
1 Speak calmly, using “I feel” sentences instead of blaming (责怪) others.
2 Listen patiently to understand the other person’s feelings.
3 Find solutions that work for both.
Emma then talked to Lily, and they both apologized (道歉) for their mistakes.
Every friendship has arguments, but honest talks can turn them into chances to make the friendship stronger. As the saying goes, “A true friend walks in when the rest of the world walks out.”

① Do you know E-person and I-person? These two kinds of personalities are much discussed online. Even twins may be quite different from each other, such as personalities, hobbies, friends and so on. To learn more about that, let’s hear from the following twins.
② Andy, an Extrovert
I enjoy trying new things and playing with many friends. Ken and I head to the beach on Saturdays to surf, and on Sundays, I hang out with Tom, eating and riding. At school, Larry is my best friend. I don’t spend much time with him over the weekends because he likes to play video games at home just by himself. I’m cool with it because I can visit other friends. I value (重视) his friendship a lot because Larry cares about me and often gives great advice about my problems.
③ Anna, an Introvert
I think nothing is more enjoyable than staying on the sofa by myself with a great book in hand. However, I do also need time with my two best friends, Sue and Tina. Sue is so full of life that her jokes bring much joy to my quiet days. Tina is more like me, and she understands me better than I do. We often take a long walk to share our feelings. I love both my friends and need their different personalities to make my life colorful.

【答案】
1.characters 2.with 3.them 4.pleasure 5.attend 6.performed 7.younger 8.quietly 9.playing 10.spare
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了米勒先生的一对双胞胎儿子汤姆和蒂姆性格不同、爱好各异,但各自都有长处。

2.句意:他总是喜欢与他的朋友和家人分享他的想法。固定搭配share sth. with sb. 意为“与某人分享某物”。
3.句意:听了它们(笑话)后,他的家人总是忍不住笑。listen to后接宾格代词,指代前文的jokes,they的宾格为them。

【导语】本文讲述了作者与表妹Lisa之间的深厚友谊。
1.句意:在星期六我总是和她一起去图书馆。根据“My best friend is Lisa. She is also my cousin.”及“I always go to the library with ”可知,总是和Lisa一起去图书馆,介词with后接宾格her,故填her。
2.句意:Lisa常常帮助我发挥出最好的一面,所以我变得越来越好。根据“Lisa often helps to bring out the best in me, so I’m becoming…and better.”可知,在Lisa的帮助下,作者变得越来越好,比较级+and+比较级,表示“越来越……”,此空应填good的比较级better,故填better。
3.句意:我更擅长运动,所以我经常在完成作业后教她打网球。根据“teach her to…tennis”可知,教她打网球,play tennis“打网球”,动词不定式符号to后接动词原形,故填play。
4.句意:我们每月去看一次电影。根据“we go to the movies…a month”可知,此处介绍看电影的频率,结合备选词one可知,此处指一个月一次,英文表达为once a month,故填once。
5.句意:因为她的笑话能让我大声笑起来。根据“make me laugh”及备选词可知,此处指大声地笑,副词loudly修饰动词laugh,故填loudly。
6.句意:在一起相处有助于我们保持亲密。根据“Spending time together helps us…close.”及备选词可知,在一起相处和陪伴有助于两个人保持亲密的关系,stay“保持”,help sb do sth“帮助某人做某事”,故填stay。
7.句意:例如,我决定去年暑假和她一起做一些有趣的事。此空修饰不定代词“something”,备选词interest的形容词interesting符合,故填interesting。
8.句意:一切都很棒。此句是主系表的结构,空处缺少be动词,结合上下文可判断,此句用一般过去时,主语是“Everything”,be动词用was,故填was。
9.句意:我们喂了一些母鸡,还看到了一些小猪。根据“some baby pigs”及备选词可知,介绍所见所闻,看见了一些小猪,see“看见”,根据“fed”可知,此空也应填动词过去式,故填saw。
10.句意:正如俗语所说:“真正的朋友会伸出援手并触动你的心。”根据“A true friend…for your hand and touches your heart.”可知,这是一句习语,reach for your hand“伸出援手”,根据“touches”可知,此空应填动词三单形式,故填reaches。
根据语篇内容,从方框中选择恰当的单词,并用其正确形式填空。将单词填写在答题卡对应的横线上。每个单词只能用一次。

The Person I Want to Make Friends with
I really want to make friends with people who are positive and possess good personal qualities.
First, I hope my friend can be humorous. A sense of humor can always bring us joy. When I feel upset, a funny friend can make me feel better. Second, it’s important for a friend to be honest. Honesty builds trust, and I believe a true friend should always tell the truth, even if it’s hard. Besides, an open-minded person who respects different opinions would be great, as we can learn from each other.
Such a friend will surely make my life more meaningful.

My Best Friend
A life without a friend is a life without the sun. My best friend is Li Ming.
He is tall and thin, with bright eyes and a warm smile. He is outgoing and always ready to help others. We both enjoy playing basketball, but I am quiet while he is active.
