B Parents often believe that they have a good relationship with their teenagers. But last summer,Joanna and Henry noticed an incredible change in their elder son:suddenly he seemed to talk far more to his friends than to his parents."The door to his room is always shut,"Joanna noted. Tina and Mark noticed similar changes in their 14-year-old daughter."She used to cuddle up to(依偎)me on the sofa and talk,”said Mark.“Now we joke that she does this only when she wants something.Sometimes she wants to be treated like a little girl and sometimes like a young lady.The problem is figuring out which time is which. Before age 11,children like to tell their parents what's on their minds."In fact,parents are first in the list,"said Michael Riera,author of Uncommon Sense for Parents with Teenagers."This completely changes during the teen years," Riera explained."They talk to their friends first,then maybe their teachers,and their parents last..” Parents who know what's going on in their teenagers'lives are in the best position to help them.To break down the wall of silence,parents should create chances to understand what their children want to say,and try to find ways to talk 高二英语第3页（共9页） and write to them.And they must give their children a mental break,for children also need freedom,though young.Another thing parents should remember is that to be a friend,not a manager,with their children is a better way to know them. 24."The door to his room is always shut"in the first paragraph suggests that the son A.keeps himself away from his parents B.doesn't want to be disturbed C.is always busy with his studies D.begins to dislike his parents 25.What troubles Tina and Mark most?

C.Teenagers talk little about their own lives. 长 D.Teenagers do not talk much with their parents. 区 27.What can be learned from the passage? A.Parents are unhappy with their growing children. 数 B.Parents should try to understand their teenagers. C.Parents should be patient with their silent teenagers. 弼 D.Parents have suitable ways to talk with their teenagers. c 相 What makes people succeed?People are wondering it for a long time.Now, many researchers think there are two qualities which make the difference between men of great success and men of average performance:curiosity and discontent. Usually an outstanding man possesses both of them. Together,these deep human urges count for much more than ambition. Galileo was not merely ambitious when he dropped objects of varying weights from the Leaning Tower at Pisa and timed their fall to the ground.Like Galileo,all the great names in history were curious and asked in discontent,"Why? Why?Why?” Fortunately,curiosity and discontent don't have to be learned.People are born with them and need only recapture them. 高二英语第4页（共9页） “The great man,”said Mencius(孟子)，“is he who does not lose his child's heart."Yet most of us do lose it.We stop asking questions.We stop challenging custom.We just follow the crowd.And the crowd desires only the calm and restful average.It encourages us to occupy our own little corner,to avoid foolish leaps into the dark,to be satisfied. Most people meet new people,and new ideas,with hesitation.But once having met and liked them,people think how terrible it would have been,had they missed the chance.They will probably have to force themselves to waken their curiosity and discontent and keep them awake. How should you start so as not to become discouraged?There was once a girl who couldn't arrange flowers to satisfy herself.She was curious about how the experts did it.Later she became one of the experts,writing books on flower 園 arrangement. 如 One way to begin is to answer your own excuses.You haven't any special ability?Most people don't;there are only a few geniuses.You haven't any time? 郎 That's good,because it's always the people with no time who get things done. Harriet Stowe,mother of six,wrote parts of Uncle Tom's Cabin while cooking. You're too old?Remember that Thomas Costain was 57 when he published his first novel,and that Grandma Moses showed her first pictures when she was 78. However you start,remember there is no better time to start than right now, for you'll never be more alive than you are at this moment. 数 28.What does the author aim to do in writing Paragraph 1? 南 A.To propose a definition. B.To make a comparison. C.To reach a conclusion. D.To present an argument. 阳 29.What does the example of Galileo tell us? A.Trial and error leads to the finding of truth. B.Scientists tend to be curious and ambitious. C.Creativity results from challenging authority. D.Greatness comes from a lasting desire to explore. 30.What can we learn from Paragraphs 6 and 7? A.Gaining success helps you become an expert. B.The genius tends to get things done creatively. C.Lack of talent and time is no reason for taking no action D.You should remain modest when approaching perfection. 31.What can you infer from the last sentence? A.Start right now. B.Everybody is alive. C.You are too old to start. D.You need to wait for the chance. 高二英语第5页（共9页） D The sun was rising as we drove across the Minnesota state line to New York for my new Ph.D.program.The move was good for me professionally,but I worried about my husband and daughters.I also feared that I wouldn't be able to give my kids the childhood they deserved. Anne,our first daughter,came into the world when I was a junior majoring in biology in college.It was challenging to balance classes,work schedules,and being a mom.But I got it through,finding moments of delight along the way.On the nights when I was at home,I'd read my class notes out loud to my daughter. She'd respond by asking questions,such as "Mom,what are bacteria?"It helped us both learn. After I graduated,I knew that I would need a Ph.D.to land the kind of job I wanted.I arrived in New York feeling more than the usual new-graduate-student anxiety.I also suffered from a more personal fear that I was selfish-my decision to invigorate my career was going to have long-term negative impacts on my kids. Over the past year,though,I've started to let go of some of the worry.I've realized that not only have we adapted to our new situation,but things are getting better.My husband has landed a job that he is happy with.Anne has dreamed of becoming a marine biologist.Recently,while driving past the cancer institute I work at,Anne said,"Thinking about people having cancer is so sad,but I feel better knowing that you are researching it to help." Navigating academia as a young mother is hard,but it's also rewarding.My kids are learning to look at the world through the lens of science,and watching their mom succeed inspires them.I look forward to seeing them follow my footsteps,whatever path they choose. 32.Which can best replace the underlined word "invigorate"in Paragraph 3?

Emotional intelligence refers to the ability to identify and regulate your own 高二英语第7页（共9页） emotions.It means having a deep understanding of yourself,knowing your own strengths and weaknesses,and handling reactions and emotions wisely.Emotional intelligence is critical for success in almost any field and it is especially important for high-stress environments,for example,when times are tough and when a person wants to quit or is fearful. We all know highly emotional people.Rather than react wisely,they tend to let their emotions run their lives,often saying or doing something they may later regret.I've seen many people do this on social media,getting in arguments with loved ones over trivial stuff because they have different opinions.This inability to master the self leads to many struggles and heartaches for people. Emotional intelligence does not mean being void（设有)of emotions.It means you know it is okay to be angry,just not out-of-control angry.You know it's okay to feel hurt,but it is not okay to do something stupid in the name of 圜 revenge ()Many of us know people who are very intelligent,but allow their emotions to damage their lives. 如 Now,reflect on how you manage your emotions.Are you smart in the way you express what you're feeling,especially when the pressure is on? 散 40.According to the passage,what is "emotional intelligence"? 41.How do highly emotional people deal with their emotions? 长 42.Please decide which part is false in the following statement,then underline it and explain why. ☒ It's important to keep your emotions under control,so when you get hurt,you should neither get angry nor do stupid things for revenge. 数 43.In your daily life,what can you do to better manage your emotions?(in about 40 words) 南 第二节（共20分） 假设你校《英语学习报》在组织一个关于城市生活问题的讨论。请针对 阳 以下内容谈谈你的看法。 内容包括：1.城市生活的优势； 2.城市生活的劣势； 3.你的观点。 注意：1.词数：100字左右； 2.可以适当增加细节，以使行文连贯； 3.请在答题卡的相应位置作答。 (请务必将作文写在答题卡指定区域内) 高二英语第8页（共9页）
