Here's the story of my growth over the past year. If anyone is inspired (激励) by this, that's wonderful.
I'd been stuck as this under-confident, fat and just frightened girl for years and years and years. Since I was a little girl, I'd been stuck like this, and I had lived a life where I'd be afraid of everything. But then it all started changing. Something clicked, and in over a period of 6 months I finally managed to stick to one of my diets, bringing me from overweight straight down to underweight. This proved ( 证明) that I could change myself.
One single time, I heard about a public speaking thing going on at my university, and for the first time, I managed to keep up the courage to go there. For the first time I was able to share my story, and able to do it in front of so many people possibly judging (评判) me, and suddenly all the fears about speaking publicly started vanishing. I never felt more confident.
This taught me I could get rid (去除) of my fears. It was from that point on that my road to change went from a rocky mess to a full-on empty highway.
Using the fact that I could change, and that I could get rid of my fears, I started working on them one by one. My fear of talking to strangers ,my fear of asking simple questions, my fear of hanging out with people, my fear of being myself... All of them were gone. And I still continue to progress to this day. I've never stopped.
4. When did the author know she could change herself
A. When she was in her childhood.
B. When she refused a diet.
C. When she was underweight.
D. When she was overweight.
5. What does the underlined word "vanishing" in paragraph 3 refer to

C. Changing. D. Disappearing.
6. What can be inferred from paragraph 4
A. The road to change was smooth.
B. Many other fears were on the way.
C. The author felt empty in face of fear.
D. The author started changing rapidly.
7 What's the purpose of the text

Kids and science seem to be made for each other!
The basic science is a combination of thought and experiment called the scientific method. It’s where you start with an idea, create a way to prove or disprove your idea, and show what you learned based on facts. Learning to follow this process helps you think logically and carefully. These important thinking skills can be used in many areas of study. To give a child practice with these thinking skills is like giving vitamins to a developing mind.
One of the greatest things we can teach our children is to love learning. Learning science is a great way to do so. Children are easy to be interested in science. Because much of science is hands-on, it attracts most children. Nothing makes a child sit up and take notice like the “WOW!” of a great science showing.
Science opens doors to many subjects at school. Building love for science can be helpful in other areas of study. For example, one cannot love science for very long without becoming good at its language-math! So science encourages children to study math. An interest in science is an interest in how things were once understood compared to how they are understood now. Thus studying science lends itself easily to studying history. And after you do an experiment, you need to write a lab report. Therefore, writing becomes an important part of science.
Science is the basic thing for much of our life. The science of farming shows how our food is produced; biomedical science keeps us healthy; even our beds these days are designed according to scientific facts. We almost eat, sleep and breathe with the help of science! When we prepare the next generation of voters, creators and policy makers, it is important to make sure they are not only comfortable but also good at science.
8. According to Paragraph 2, what does learning the scientific method mean to kids
A. Learning to do experiments. B. Learning many areas of study.
C. Helping them develop thinking skills. D. Refusing any ideas that are not logical.
9. Which of the following statements would the author agree with
A. Science is too difficult for children. B. Children usually consider science boring.
C. Science can arouse children's interest in learning. D. Children who are careless shouldn't learn science.
10. What happens to a child who works hard at science at school
A. He usually has no time for other subjects. B. He usually loses interest in other activities.
C He is usually bad at such subjects like history. D. He is likely to learn many other subjects well.
11. What would be the best title for the text
A. Why Kids Should Learn Science B. Why Science Is Important
C. How Kids Can Make Use of Science D. What Kids Should Learn at School
D
People often plan to receive medical exam but don’t, resulting in increasing health care cost. A surprising number of citizens mean to complete tax forms in time but forget to, pushing them to pay unnecessary fines. Many families miss the government deadline to complete financial aid forms, losing out on aid available for child care.
How can policymakers help people follow through on important tasks They use carrots and sticks: bonuses, late fees, or regulations. These methods can be clumsy, and often aren’t effective for the situation at hand. Reminding people to form simple plans. however, provides a low-cost, simple, and powerful tool.
Evidence is growing that providing prompts (提示) , which push people at key times to think through how and when they will follow through, make people more likely to act on tasks of importance. In one early randomized (随机的) study on vaccination (预防接种) rates, for example, a team of social psychologists showed that 28% of Oxford University seniors got the shot after being encouraged to review their weekly schedules and to select a possible time to stop by the health center. They were also given a list of times when shots were available and a map showing the health center’s location. Only 3% of the seniors got the shot when simply informed about how effective the shots were.
People who make a plan gain an advantage from their psychological forces. Specifically, they can overcome the tendency to put off as well as the tendency to be overly optimistic about the time it will take to accomplish a task.
People mistakenly believe that their strong intentions are enough to push them to perform desired behaviors. These psychological research results stress the need for policy decisions that encourage plan making and improve social welfare.
12. What phenomenon is described in paragraph 1
A. Heavy stress of daily chores. B. Short of task management skills.
C. Disappointment of over-confidence. D. Failure to achieve original plans.
13. What does the randomized vaccination study show
A. People need to think deeply before they act.
B. Specific reminders help people accomplish plans.
C. Awareness of task importance matters in planning.
D. Seniors need encouragement to have vaccination shots.
14. What psychological benefit can people get from making a plan
A. They are realistic in the time required B. They are optimistic about the results.
C. They are confident to overcome difficulties D. They are careful with task arrangements.
15. Who may be the intended readers of this text
A. Medical staff. B. Government officials.
C. Ordinary people. D. Social psychologists.

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
As a sixth grader, I began noticing how other kids were separating into different groups in the class. There were the geeks, the jocks (小丑) , and the popular cool kids. I wasn’t sure where I belonged. And I think that was a problem.
Our teacher had assigned “secret friends” for the coming week. The purpose of this assignment was to do nice things for your friend without letting them know who was doing it. We could leave encouraging notes on their desk or mysteriously leave a card in their backpack or book. Our teacher wrote each kid’s name on a piece of paper and threw them into a bucket, then we each closed our eyes and drew the name of the classmate who we were to secretly befriend and support over the next five school days.
Everyone was excited to get involved, including Rochelle. By the middle of the week, we had turned this assignment into a contest to see whose secret friend could leave the best gift. Instead of encouraging notes, we left stationary sets on our friend’s desk. Instead of giving compliments, we were giving bubble gum, lollipops and even money. It seemed that everyone was getting cool presents from their friends. Everyone except me, that is.
My secret friend followed our teacher’s directions without a fault. I received handmade cards, notes with nice thoughts and countless smiley face pictures saying that I was one of the nicest girls in the class. This friend seemed to think highly of me from the notes that were left, but the lack of gifts kept me wondering what was up with whoever had pulled my name.
On the last morning of our assignment, I walked into my classroom and noticed a package on my desk. At last, my secret friend had grasped the idea that a gift was what I really needed. I quickly ripped open the gift paper, only to find a small doll inside. The pink wool-knit doll seemed not new but delicate. But the girls sitting near me giggled and gossiped about the “little girl” gift I had received.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为150左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Hearing this, I felt my face turn red.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
It turned out that my secret friend was Rochelle, coming from a poor family.

Here's the story of my growth over the past year. If anyone is inspired (激励) by this, that's wonderful.
I'd been stuck as this under-confident, fat and just frightened girl for years and years and years. Since I was a little girl, I'd been stuck like this, and I had lived a life where I'd be afraid of everything. But then it all started changing. Something clicked, and in over a period of 6 months I finally managed to stick to one of my diets, bringing me from overweight straight down to underweight. This proved ( 证明) that I could change myself.
One single time, I heard about a public speaking thing going on at my university, and for the first time, I managed to keep up the courage to go there. For the first time I was able to share my story, and able to do it in front of so many people possibly judging (评判) me, and suddenly all the fears about speaking publicly started vanishing. I never felt more confident.
This taught me I could get rid (去除) of my fears. It was from that point on that my road to change went from a rocky mess to a full-on empty highway.
Using the fact that I could change, and that I could get rid of my fears, I started working on them one by one. My fear of talking to strangers ,my fear of asking simple questions, my fear of hanging out with people, my fear of being myself... All of them were gone. And I still continue to progress to this day. I've never stopped.

Kids and science seem to be made for each other!
The basic science is a combination of thought and experiment called the scientific method. It’s where you start with an idea, create a way to prove or disprove your idea, and show what you learned based on facts. Learning to follow this process helps you think logically and carefully. These important thinking skills can be used in many areas of study. To give a child practice with these thinking skills is like giving vitamins to a developing mind.
One of the greatest things we can teach our children is to love learning. Learning science is a great way to do so. Children are easy to be interested in science. Because much of science is hands-on, it attracts most children. Nothing makes a child sit up and take notice like the “WOW!” of a great science showing.
Science opens doors to many subjects at school. Building love for science can be helpful in other areas of study. For example, one cannot love science for very long without becoming good at its language-math! So science encourages children to study math. An interest in science is an interest in how things were once understood compared to how they are understood now. Thus studying science lends itself easily to studying history. And after you do an experiment, you need to write a lab report. Therefore, writing becomes an important part of science.
Science is the basic thing for much of our life. The science of farming shows how our food is produced; biomedical science keeps us healthy; even our beds these days are designed according to scientific facts. We almost eat, sleep and breathe with the help of science! When we prepare the next generation of voters, creators and policy makers, it is important to make sure they are not only comfortable but also good at science.
8. According to Paragraph 2, what does learning the scientific method mean to kids
A. Learning to do experiments. B. Learning many areas of study.
C. Helping them develop thinking skills. D. Refusing any ideas that are not logical.
9. Which of the following statements would the author agree with
A. Science is too difficult for children. B. Children usually consider science boring.
C. Science can arouse children's interest in learning. D. Children who are careless shouldn't learn science.
10. What happens to a child who works hard at science at school
A. He usually has no time for other subjects. B. He usually loses interest in other activities.
C. He is usually bad at such subjects like history. D. He is likely to learn many other subjects well.
11. What would be the best title for the text
A. Why Kids Should Learn Science B. Why Science Is Important

People often plan to receive medical exam but don’t, resulting in increasing health care cost. A surprising number of citizens mean to complete tax forms in time but forget to, pushing them to pay unnecessary fines. Many families miss the government deadline to complete financial aid forms, losing out on aid available for child care.
How can policymakers help people follow through on important tasks They use carrots and sticks: bonuses, late fees, or regulations. These methods can be clumsy, and often aren’t effective for the situation at hand. Reminding people to form simple plans. however, provides a low-cost, simple, and powerful tool.
Evidence is growing that providing prompts (提示) , which push people at key times to think through how and when they will follow through, make people more likely to act on tasks of importance. In one early randomized (随机的) study on vaccination (预防接种) rates, for example, a team of social psychologists showed that 28% of Oxford University seniors got the shot after being encouraged to review their weekly schedules and to select a possible time to stop by the health center. They were also given a list of times when shots were available and a map showing the health center’s location. Only 3% of the seniors got the shot when simply informed about how effective the shots were.
People who make a plan gain an advantage from their psychological forces. Specifically, they can overcome the tendency to put off as well as the tendency to be overly optimistic about the time it will take to accomplish a task.
People mistakenly believe that their strong intentions are enough to push them to perform desired behaviors. These psychological research results stress the need for policy decisions that encourage plan making and improve social welfare.
12. What phenomenon is described in paragraph 1
A. Heavy stress of daily chores. B. Short of task management skills.
C. Disappointment of over-confidence. D. Failure to achieve original plans.
13. What does the randomized vaccination study show
A. People need to think deeply before they act.
B. Specific reminders help people accomplish plans.
C Awareness of task importance matters in planning.
D. Seniors need encouragement to have vaccination shots.
14. What psychological benefit can people get from making a plan
A. They are realistic in the time required B. They are optimistic about the results.
C. They are confident to overcome difficulties D. They are careful with task arrangements.
15. Who may be the intended readers of this text
A. Medical staff. B. Government officials.
C. Ordinary people. D. Social psychologists.
【答案】12. D 13. B 14. A 15. B

第二节(共5小题;每小题2. 5分,满分12. 5分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
As a student, you have a lot of freedom when it comes to how you spend your time. But with that freedom comes the responsibility to make the most of your studying hours. Here are some tips to help you do just that.
Create a schedule
This means setting aside specific times for studying each day and then sticking to that schedule as closely as possible. Of course, there will be days when things come up, and you have to deviate from your plan. ____16____.
Break up your study sessions into smaller periods
Our brain can’t focus effectively for a longtime. If you try to study for several hours once, chances are much higher that you won’t remember all of the information you’re trying to learn. ____17____.
Find a study place that works for you
____18____ Some people prefer to study in complete silence, while others find that some background noise helps them focus better. There is no right or wrong answer here — it’s all about finding a place to study that allows you to work as efficiently as possible.
____19____
This will not only help you check your understanding of the concepts but also identify any area that may need more review. And once you know what specific topics or ideas you need to work on, it will be much easier for you to direct your study sessions accordingly and make better use of your time overall.
Don’t be afraid to ask for help
If you find that you’re struggling to understand the material or just not making progress as quickly as you’d like, seek assistance in time. ____20____. In fact, it can save lots of time in the long run by getting you the support you need.
A. Take relevant tests
B. Learn to accept failure
C. There is no shame in admitting that you need assistance
D. Make sure that every minute you spend studying counts
E. However, try not to go off-track too often or for too long
F. Where you study can also affect how effectively you use your time
G. Instead, divide your study sessions up into shorter periods to help you relax and recharge
【答案】16. E 17. G 18. F 19. A 20. C
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了一些学习的建议。
【16题详解】
由上文“This means setting aside specific times for studying each day and then sticking to that schedule as closely as possible. Of course, there will be days when things come up, and you have to deviate from your plan.(这意味着每天要留出特定的学习时间,然后尽可能严格地遵守这个时间表。当然,总有一天事情会发生,你不得不偏离你的计划)”可知,上文讲有时我们会因为临时事情偏离计划,E项中go off-track和上文deviate from your plan对应。故E选项“然而,尽量不要太频繁或太长时间偏离轨道”符合语境,故选E。
【17题详解】
根据本段小标题“ Break up your study sessions into smaller periods( 把你的学习过程分成更小的阶段)”及本段所述内容“Our brain can’t focus effectively for a longtime. If you try to study for several hours once, chances are much higher that you won’t remember all of the information you’re trying to learn.(我们的大脑无法长时间有效地集中注意力。如果你试着一次学习几个小时,你很有可能记不住你想学的所有信息)”可知,本段主要讨论为了提高学习效率,可以将学习时间分成若干个时段以便能高效学习,故G选项“相反,把你的学习过程分成更短的时间段来帮助你放松和充电”符合语境,故选G。
【18题详解】
由后文“Some people prefer to study in complete silence, while others find that some background noise helps them focus better. There is no right or wrong answer here — it’s all about finding a place to study that allows you to work as efficiently as possible.(有些人喜欢在完全安静的环境中学习,而另一些人则发现一些背景噪音可以帮助他们更好地集中注意力。这里没有正确或错误的答案——关键是要找到一个能让你尽可能高效工作的学习场所)”可知,这段主要讲找一个学习的地方,F选项中Where和小标题中place对应,且本句有启下作用。故F选项“学习地点也会影响你如何有效利用时间”符合语境,故选F。
【19题详解】
根据本段内容“This will not only help you check your understanding of the concepts but also identify any area that may need more review. And once you know what specific topics or ideas you need to work on, it will be much easier for you to direct your study sessions accordingly and make better use of your time overall.(这不仅可以帮助你检查你对概念的理解,还可以确定任何可能需要更多复习的地方。一旦你知道了你需要学习的具体主题或想法,你就会更容易相应地指导你的学习过程,更好地利用你的时间)”可知,本段主要讲述这不仅可以检查所学的概念而且可以知道尚需温习的内容,知晓了需要继续学习的话题或思想后就可以引导你进行相应的学习以提高时间利用率,由此可推知A项Take relevant tests 可以概括全文内容。故A选项“进行相关测试”符合语境,故选A。
【20题详解】
由上文“If you find that you’re struggling to understand the material or just not making progress as quickly as you’d like, seek assistance in time.(如果你发现你在努力理解材料,或者只是没有像你希望的那样快速进步,及时寻求帮助)”可知,遇到困难要及时寻求帮助,下文“In fact, it can save lots of time in the long run by getting you the support you need.(事实上,从长远来看,它可以通过为你提供所需的支持来节省大量时间)”讲获得需要的帮助可以节约许多时间,故C选项“承认你需要帮助并不可耻”符合语境,故选C。

考查介词。句意:没有人可以和我说话,只有我的丈夫,他让我感到孤独,对我的新生活没有信心。分析句子结构可知,此处为固定短语have no confidence in sth.意为“对某事没有信心”符合句意。故填in。
【41题详解】
考查代词。句意:当我不得不和家人和朋友说再见时,那是一个悲伤的时刻。分析句子结构可知,此处为句子主语,无提示词,所以此处应为代词,结合句意可知,此处指代的是时间,应使用代词it,位于句首,首字母需大写。故填It。
【42题详解】
考查形容词。句意:我不想离开我的家乡,因为我在那里长大,对那个地方有令人印象深刻而美好的回忆。分析句子结构可知,此处为形容词作定语修饰名词memories,与wonderful为并列关系,impress的形容词为impressive意为“令人印象深刻的”符合句意。故填impressive。
【43题详解】
考查动名词。句意:所以,想到所有这些变化让我感到紧张,我害怕面对它们。分析句子结构可知,此处为非谓语动词作主语,结合句意可知,此处描述的普通的、一般的行为,所以应使用动名词形式作主语,且表示主动意义。故填thinking。
【44题详解】
考查谓语动词。句意:我的朋友建议我应该参加一些户外活动。分析句子结构可知,此处为宾语从句的谓语动词,recommend意为“推荐,建议”,其后的宾语从句中的谓语动词应是“should +动词原形”,且should可以省略,结合句意,take与句子主语I之间为主动关系。故填(should) take。
【45题详解】
考查动词不定式。句意:在国外生活有很多值得探索的地方。分析句子结构可知,此处为非谓语动词作定语,结合句意,explore表示未发生的动作,所以此处使用不定式形式作定语,且在there be结构中的不定式动作与动作的发出者之间为主动关系,应使用主动形式。故填to explore。

47. 阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
As a sixth grader, I began noticing how other kids were separating into different groups in the class. There were the geeks, the jocks (小丑) , and the popular cool kids. I wasn’t sure where I belonged. And I think that was a problem.
Our teacher had assigned “secret friends” for the coming week. The purpose of this assignment was to do nice things for your friend without letting them know who was doing it. We could leave encouraging notes on their desk or mysteriously leave a card in their backpack or book. Our teacher wrote each kid’s name on a piece of paper and threw them into a bucket, then we each closed our eyes and drew the name of the classmate who we were to secretly befriend and support over the next five school days.
Everyone was excited to get involved, including Rochelle. By the middle of the week, we had turned this assignment into a contest to see whose secret friend could leave the best gift. Instead of encouraging notes, we left stationary sets on our friend’s desk. Instead of giving compliments, we were giving bubble gum, lollipops and even money. It seemed that everyone was getting cool presents from their friends. Everyone except me, that is.
My secret friend followed our teacher’s directions without a fault. I received handmade cards, notes with nice thoughts and countless smiley face pictures saying that I was one of the nicest girls in the class. This friend seemed to think highly of me from the notes that were left, but the lack of gifts kept me wondering what was up with whoever had pulled my name.
On the last morning of our assignment, I walked into my classroom and noticed a package on my desk. At last, my secret friend had grasped the idea that a gift was what I really needed. I quickly ripped open the gift paper, only to find a small doll inside. The pink wool-knit doll seemed not new but delicate. But the girls sitting near me giggled and gossiped about the “little girl” gift I had received.

It turned out that my secret friend was Rochelle, coming from a poor family.
____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One Possible Version:
Hearing this, I felt my face turn red. Embarrassed and ashamed, I secretly complained that the girl gave me so stupid a gift to arouse others’ derision. I even joined other girls in gossiping about my secret friend and the poor doll. When I continued with mean remarks, a girl sitting at the last row arose and came up, casting me an angry and disappointed look. With tears streaming down her face, she admitted, “I’m your secret friend and I’m sorry about the gift.” Then she ran out of the classroom. Frozen with shock, I couldn’t utter a single word.
It turned out that my secret friend was Rochelle, coming from a poor family. She had saved every penny in her pocket money in order to give me a cool gift. With the limited money, she visited a lot of stores and finally selected the lovely doll from a second-hand store. Actually, she gave me a most valuable gift with her sincere heart. However, I didn’t treasure and hurt her badly in such a cruel way. So ashamed was I that it took me a few days to pluck up my courage to face up to Rochelle and apologize. Much to my delight, she forgave me and later we became best friends. Most importantly, we found where we belonged.
【解析】
【分析】本文以找“秘密朋友”活动为线索展开,讲述了老师为了让同学们找到好朋友,举行了找“秘密朋友”的活动。大家都为自己的秘密朋友留下最好的礼物,例如泡泡糖、棒棒糖甚至是钱。而作者收到的确实是手工制作的卡片、便条和笑脸照片,还有一个看起来很不起眼的洋娃娃。作者感到很失望,甚至和其他同学一起取笑这个洋娃娃。这时候,罗谢尔站出来说礼物是她送的,她来自一个贫困家庭,为了送给作者一个礼物,她攒了平时的零花钱。作者顿时感到很羞愧而向罗谢尔道歉,最终罗谢尔原谅了作者,她们成为了最好的朋友。
【详解】1.段落续写:
①由第一段首句内容“听到这些,我觉得我的脸变红了。”可知,第一段可描写作者为收到这样的礼物而感到尴尬,因此,和周围同学一起嘲笑这个“洋娃娃”。这时候,送礼物的罗谢尔难过的跑出去,作者才知道,自己的秘密朋友是她。
②由第二段首句内容“原来我的秘密朋友是罗谢尔,来自一个贫穷的家庭。”可知,第二段可描写罗谢尔虽然很贫困,但是她依然攒钱给自己的秘密朋友买最好的礼物。
