One evening, while Katie was crying alone and sitting on her bed, she heard the sound of little paws (爪子). It was Moxie. Moxie was not a common 4 . She was a service (服务) dog.

Moxie jumped onto the bed, put her little paws on Katie’s legs, and 6 at her with big brown eyes. 7 Moxie could not speak, her love warmed Katie’s heart. After quite a while, Katie 8 stopped crying. She calmed down and realized that she was not ready to stop 9 for her life. She just needed to find a new 10 to go. Looking at Moxie, Katie remembered the words of Booker T. Washington: “To lift yourself up, lift 11 else up.” She thought of people who 12 a service dog but could not pay for one. So Katie started a project “Moxie’s Mission” to pay for service dogs for them. Today, Moxie’s Mission keeps growing and helping more people. Life is still 13 and Katie feels weak sometimes.

The way you do it can make a big difference to your life. The good news is that you can learn to improve your self-talk. First of all, try to change the negative (消极的) self-talk into a positive (积极的) one. If you always tell yourself that you are not smart or good enough, you may start to believe it. So try to use words like “can” or “will”. For example, you may say, “I will write a great article.” Also, you can try to use the 2nd or 3rd person (人称) in your self-talk. In a study, scientist Ethan Kross asked 89 people to give a speech with only five minutes to get ready. As they prepared, he asked some to use “I” in their self-talk. These people were more likely (可能地) to be anxious. They were worried about it. They said things like, “I can’t prepare a speech in five minutes.” The others were asked to call themselves “you” or by their own names. They were more likely to give themselves support (支持)。They said things like, “Ethan, you can do this!” “Talking in the 2nd or 3rd person helps people put some distance (距离) between themselves and their feelings.” said Kross. It helps people think more clearly about their own problems, just as they think about other people’s. By changing the way of self-talk, you can feel better and more confident. Next time you notice you’ re talking to yourself, try to make it positive and use “you” or your own name. You might be surprised at how much better you feel. 16．What’s the main idea of paragraph 2? A．Not everyone does the self-talk in the same way. B．It is very important for us to write a good article. C．We can try to use the 2nd or 3rd person in the self-talk. D．We should change a negative self-talk into a positive one. 17．How much time did the people have to prepare for a speech in Kross’s study? A．Three minutes. B．Five minutes. C．Ten minutes. D．Thirty minutes. 18．What does the underlined word “anxious” mean in Paragraph3? A．Happy. B．Confident. C．Nervous. D．Busy. 19．Why should people use “you” in the self-talk according to Kross? A．Because it helps people remember their past successes. B．Because it makes people forget about their problems. C．Because it makes people think about others’ feelings. D．Because it creates distance between people and their feelings. 20．What is the best title for the text? A．The History of Self-Talk Research B．How to Improve Your Self-Talk C．How to Give a Speech Successfully D．Why We Need Friends in Our Lives 【答案】16．D 17．B 18．C 19．D 20．B 【导语】本文主要介绍了自我对话对生活的影响以及改善自我对话的两种方法，包括将消极对话转为积极对话和使用第二或第三人称，核心结论是改变自我对话方式能提升自信。 【详解】16．主旨大意题。文章第2段首句“First of all, try to change the negative self-talk into a positive one.”是本段主题句，整段围绕“把消极自我对话变成积极对话”展开举例，对应D选项。 17．细节理解题。文章第3段第2句“...asked 89 people to give a speech with only five minutes to get ready.”直接说明准备时间只有五分钟，对应B选项。 18．词句猜测题。文章第3段“They were worried about it.”是对“anxious”的解释，意为“担心的，紧张的”，对应C选项。 19．细节理解题。文章第4段“‘Talking in the 2nd or 3rd person helps people put some distance between themselves and their feelings.’”说明，使用第二人称能帮助人们在自己和情绪之间建立距离，对应D选项。 20．最佳标题题。文章通篇围绕如何改善自我对话展开，从改变对话内容到改变人称，核心主题是自我对话的优化，对应B选项“如何改善你的自我对话”。 B Chinese Men’s 4×200‑meter Freestyle Relay Wins Gold and Breaks the Asian RecordNews Source: School English Newspaper【Event Brief】 Event: men’s 4×200‑meter freestyle relay  Place: Nagoya Asian Games Result: Gold medal, new Asian record  Feature: amazing comeback (逆转) victory 【List of Participants (参加者)】 Chinese Team Members: 1.

But many teenagers overlook it today. They do not understand the importance of working hard. There is a teenage girl named Nancy. She never helps out around the house. Last year, her mother was on vacation for a week and left her at home. When her mother came home from vacation, she could not find a clean dish or a clean shirt. ③Schools are important in teaching students to work hard. Primary and middle schools should have hard-working spirit lessons every week. To our joy, in some schools, each class has a field to plant their favourite vegetables. For example, No.38 Middle School in Hefei has a 50-square-metre farm on the top of the classroom building. The school asks each class to grow and pick vegetables there. ④Parents should also encourage children to learn to do chores at home. Teenagers should learn one or two life skills every year. They can learn skills like cooking, washing their own clothes and tidying their rooms. The life skills may help teenagers to solve the problems they might meet in the future. 26．What does the underlined word “overlook” in Paragraph 2 mean? A．Don’t notice something. B．Look forward to something. C．Agree with something. D．Give up something. 27．Why does the writer give the example of Nancy in Paragraph 2? A．To show Nancy is too busy to help out around the house.

D．By having hard-working spirit lessons and organizing labor (劳动) activities. 【答案】26．A 27．B 28．C 29．D 30．D 【导语】本文是说明文，围绕青少年劳动精神教育展开，点明青少年应当学习生活技能、养成良好劳动习惯，介绍了当前部分青少年忽视劳动教育的现状，并从学校、家庭两个层面说明开展劳动教育的途径与意义。 【详解】26．词句猜测题。根据文章第2段“The government is trying to pay attention to the hard-working spirit education. But many teenagers overlook it today. They do not understand the importance of working hard.”可知，前文提到政府重视劳动精神教育，but表示转折，说明青少年对劳动教育的态度与政府相反，是忽视、未留意到，由此可猜测overlook的含义是“没注意到某事”。 27．推理判断题。根据文章第2段“They do not understand the importance of working hard. There is a teenage girl named Nancy. She never helps out around the house. Last year, her mother was on vacation for a week and left her at home. When her mother came home from vacation, she could not find a clean dish or a clean shirt.”可知，作者先提出“青少年不懂得努力劳动的重要性”的观点，随后举Nancy不会做家务的例子，目的是佐证这一观点，说明青少年对劳动重要性的认知不足。 28．细节理解题。根据文章第2段“The government is trying to pay attention to the hard-working spirit education.”可知，政府正在努力重视劳动精神教育，并非几乎不关注，因此C选项表述错误。 29．篇章结构题。文章第1段总起，提出青少年应当学习生活技能、养成良好劳动习惯的核心观点；第2段介绍当前青少年忽视劳动教育的现状；第3段说明学校开展劳动教育的具体方式；第4段说明家庭层面的劳动教育要求及劳动技能的意义，属于总分结构，与选项D的结构图示相符。 30．细节理解题。根据文章第3段“Primary and middle schools should have hard-working spirit lessons every week. To our joy, in some schools, each class has a field to plant their favourite vegetables.”可知，学校可以通过开设劳动精神课程、组织种菜等劳动实践活动的方式培养学生的劳动精神。 第二节(共5小题，每小题2分，满分10分) 根据短文内容，从短文后的A—F选项中选出5个适当的选项补全短文。 31 About two million visitors come here every year.

It isn’t the capital city or the biggest city, but it’s the most liked one.”，结合后文对开普敦各项游玩内容的展开介绍，选项F“Cape Town in South Africa is named the ‘Best City on Earth’.”能够引出本文的说明对象——开普敦，并呼应后文“最受喜爱的城市”这一表述，作为全文的开头句最为合适。 32．第一段末尾提到“People love it for its many fun things to do, like enjoying beautiful landscapes, shopping in fantastic malls in the city …”，选项B“Here’s something for everyone.”能够承接上文，总领下文分别从“Outdoor Fun”“Water Fun”等方面介绍开普敦适合不同人群的游玩项目，起到承上启下的作用。 33．第三段“Water Fun”部分提到“There are also some old ships that sank (下沉) near the coast.”，选项A“It’s exciting to explore them.”中的“them”指代前文沉没的古老船只，说明探索这些沉船令人兴奋，能够承接上文，逻辑连贯。 34．第四段“Some Key Facts”部分介绍了天气、货币和主要语言等基本信息，选项C“More than 4 million people live here.”同样属于该城市的关键事实，介绍人口情况，与前文天气、货币、语言并列，符合本段“Some Key Facts”的主题。 35．第五段后文提到“Online, tourists who went there said people need to be careful when they visit.”以及“it gets more dangerous as you get far away from the centre”，说明游客需要注意安全问题。选项E“However, there’s still something that worries tourists.”能够承接上文对开普敦优点的介绍，用“However”转折引出下文关于安全问题的担忧，逻辑衔接自然。 三、短文填空(共10小题，每小题1分，满分10分) 阅读下面短文，用方框中单词的适当形式填空，使之通顺、完整。（每个单词限用一次，每空填一个单词） opinion, thank, surprising, different, I, shy, way, quiet, attend, make I always expected my best friends to be similar to me.

One evening, while Katie was crying alone and sitting on her bed, she heard the sound of little paws (爪子). It was Moxie. Moxie was not a common 4 . She was a service (服务) dog.

The way you do it can make a big difference to your life. The good news is that you can learn to improve your self-talk. First of all, try to change the negative (消极的) self-talk into a positive (积极的) one. If you always tell yourself that you are not smart or good enough, you may start to believe it. So try to use words like “can” or “will”. For example, you may say, “I will write a great article.” Also, you can try to use the 2nd or 3rd person (人称) in your self-talk. In a study, scientist Ethan Kross asked 89 people to give a speech with only five minutes to get ready. As they prepared, he asked some to use “I” in their self-talk. These people were more likely (可能地) to be anxious. They were worried about it. They said things like, “I can’t prepare a speech in five minutes.” The others were asked to call themselves “you” or by their own names. They were more likely to give themselves support (支持)。They said things like, “Ethan, you can do this!” “Talking in the 2nd or 3rd person helps people put some distance (距离) between themselves and their feelings.” said Kross. It helps people think more clearly about their own problems, just as they think about other people’s. By changing the way of self-talk, you can feel better and more confident. Next time you notice you’ re talking to yourself, try to make it positive and use “you” or your own name. You might be surprised at how much better you feel. 16.What’s the main idea of paragraph 2? A.Not everyone does the self-talk in the same way. B.It is very important for us to write a good article. C.We can try to use the 2nd or 3rd person in the self-talk. D.We should change a negative self-talk into a positive one. 17.How much time did the people have to prepare for a speech in Kross’s study? A.Three minutes. B.Five minutes. C.Ten minutes. D.Thirty minutes. 18.What does the underlined word “anxious” mean in Paragraph3? A.Happy. B.Confident. C.Nervous. D.Busy. 19.Why should people use “you” in the self-talk according to Kross? A.Because it helps people remember their past successes. B.Because it makes people forget about their problems. C.Because it makes people think about others’ feelings. D.Because it creates distance between people and their feelings. 20.What is the best title for the text?
