I only knew 100 Finnish words and missed my family. My host family met me with smiles. They reminded me that everything would get better. The first weeks were hard. I felt sad because I could not talk with people. I tried to keep quiet. I practised listening and looked for ways to express thanks. For example, I helped with chores or stayed in the family room to do homework. However, there were happy moments. My host family and I played card games and visited new places together. They made me feel better. As time went by, I felt the love from my host family. Once I got sick, my host mother took care of me like her own child. She brought me breakfast in bed and encouraged me to see a doctor. When I was in hospital, I realized that I became a part of the family. These experiences taught me that people could grow in difficult times. Difficulties make life richer. Little by little, I saw myself grow. Living with my host family became my treasure. Our stories were like a journey full of laughter, joy and tears. I’d like to tell you more. 21. Why was Frank afraid when he first reached Finland? A. He could not call his own family. B. He only spoke a few Finnish words. C. He had no close friends to talk to. D. He didn’t want to live with the host family. 22. What does the word They in paragraph 2 refer to? A. The first weeks. B. Simple chores. C. Happy moments. D. Past experiences. 23. What did Frank learn from the experiences? A. It was pleasant to learn about a foreign country. B.

Or the ones who notice when you’re feeling down? Those are your close friends. Not every friend you have is a close friend— and that’s okay. Studies show that most people can have only a few close friends because of limited time and energy. Psychologist (心理学家) Robin Dunbar points out that most people have around five close friends. Another study by Suzanne Degges-White finds that having three to six close friends makes people happiest. It also finds that having more than six close friends doesn’t make people feel much happier. But friendships aren’t just about closeness. According to a study by Jan Yager, you might have25 or more casual friends, like classmates, neighbours, or other people you know from everyday life. Because no one person can meet all your needs, having different kinds of friends helps in many ways. They can take some pressure off you and provide a safety net when you lose important friends. What’s more, they can also come up with new ideas— some may surprise you. There are no hard and fast rules on how many close or casual friends you should have, so don’t worry if you have more or less. Some people have more than ten close friends, while others are happy with just one or two. What matters most is how you feel. If you’re happy with your friendships, then you have enough. Just trust your own feelings. 26. What is the main purpose of paragraph 1? A. To tell us what close friends are. B. To show how to make close friends. C. To explain why people need close friends. D. To compare close friends and casual friends. 27. Why do most people have only a few close friends? A. They would like to have more casual friends. B. They can’t feel happier with more close friends. C. They think it’s right to have about five close friends. D. They don’t have enough time or energy to have more. 28. What are the good points of having different kinds of friends? ①You can feel less pressure. ②You can get some surprising ideas. ③You can get different support and help. ④You can make sure you won’t lose close friends. A. ①②③ B. ①②④ C. ①③④ D. ②③④ 29. What does the underlined phrase a safety net mean in paragraph 3? A. A kind of game that friends often play together. B. Something that helps you when you are in trouble. C. A group of people who live near your home. D. Something that adds more pressure to your life. 30. Which idea does the writer most likely agree with? A. Almost all people have more than 25 casual friends. B. People need more than 6 close friends to keep happy. C. Close friends are more important than casual friends. D. The right number of friends is different for each person. D (Problems) ____31____ Maria: I’m shy.

I miss him, but I think I was right. ____35____ Emma: I’m confident chatting online, but I feel nervous at real-life parties. I don’t know what to say to new people. (Advice) A.

C. Try to talk to one person in a small real-life party. Set a small goal each week. D. Friendship is more important than being right. Saying sorry can be the first step to fixing your friendship. E.

My journey began with learning how to sort waste. Although it was an easy step, I realized that our daily actions could affect the environment. I also encouraged my family to join me. I explained to them why waste sorting was important. At first, they thought it was too much trouble, but it later became a habit for them. After that, I found a good way to make use of old things around the house. For example, an old shirt could become a tablecloth, and useless cups could be pretty flower pots. As a result, there was less rubbish. Though these actions were small, they made a big difference. More importantly, they made us learn to care for the earth and brought us closer as a family. Now, I feel like I’m doing something important for the environment when I am doing housework. It shows me that even small actions at home can make a difference. Doing housework for a greener world Change in thinking: 1. Old idea: Housework = a ____51____ job for keeping the home clean 2. New idea: Housework = a useful ____52____ of helping the environment Main steps: 1. Sorting waste is easy but helpful. The family ____53____ in and it later became a habit for them. 2. Using old things can cause less ____54____ . Results: For the Family, they learned how to care for the earth and they grew ____55____ as a family. 六、完成句子：本大题共10小题，共10分。 56. 他们上周末参观了那座古老的营地。 They visited that _________________ last weekend. 57. 海南以其绝美的风景而闻名。 Hainan is famous for its _________________. 58. 他们准备好在雨中行走。 They _________________ walk in the rain. 59. 过去，士兵们常常与敌人作斗争。 The soldiers often _________________ the enemies in the past. 60. 老师经常提醒我们按时完成作业。 The teacher often _________________ finish our homework on time. 61. 人们在极度震惊时很容易忘记要说什么。 People may _________________ what to say when they are too shocked. 62. 用刀的时候要小心。 _________________ the knife when using it. 63. 他迅速把它从车上拽了出来。 He quickly _________________ from the car. 64. 他养了很多猫，他经常拿它们与我的猫们作比较。 He raised many cats and he often _________________ mine. 65. 我昨晚在作业里犯了一个错误。 I _________________ in my homework last night. 七、书面表达：本大题共1小题，共15分。 66. 假如你是李华，你们学校将举办以“珍惜友谊（Value our friendship）”为主题的英语演讲比赛。请用英语写一篇演讲稿，介绍谁是你最好的朋友，你们之间的相似点（similarity）和不同点，以及应该怎样珍惜朋友。 写作要点： 1.
