If our kids don’t fall, they don’t learn to get up. I still remember the day in high school that my mom forgot to pick me up from school. I’m the oldest of four children, and no doubt she’d had a long day with the other kids and it’d slipped her mind. After waiting at school for an hour, I walked the three miles home, and when I got to my house, I shut our front door with anger, stormed into the kitchen and screamed in my mom’s face that she’d forgotten me.
Later that night, my dad told me I no longer had a ride to school the next day. I figured my mom would still take me, but when the morning came, she refused. It was midterm, and as a straight-A student ready to start college applications, being late wasn’t an option (选择). In my mind, missing these tests would have been the end of my academic career. I begged my mom. I told her she was ruining my future and everything I’d worked for. But sheheld her ground, and that day, I walked to school. And I missed my tests.
My mom didn’t rescue me from failure. She let me suffer from it. She let me figure it out. She let me learn. Now, as a mom myself, I’ve realized that I want my kids to experience failure because failure is how we grow, learn and think outside of ourselves. It’s how we self-educate to learn what’s right and respectable, and what’s not. It’s how we become responsible and enthusiastic. Falling down makes us better because we learn how to get up.
4. What is one of the reasons that the author got angry that day?
A. She was tired.

Nowadays organic food hasbecome a fashion. Organic food sales reached a record of $ 45.2 billion in 2017, making it one of the fastest-growing parts of American agriculture. Some people may buy organic food for these reasons like resource cycling and biodiversity, but most people may choose organic food because they think it's healthier. While a small number of studies have shown relationships between eating organic food and reducing risks of being ill, no studies, up to now, have answered the question whether eating organic food can improve health.
According to the United States Department of Agriculture(USDA), organic food does not suggest anything about health. In 20155 Miles McEvoy, then chief of the National Organic Program for the USDA, refused to admit any health benefits of organic food, saying the question has nothing to do with the National Organic Program. Instead, the USDA thinks that organic refers to a production method that increases cycling of resources keeps ecological balance, and protects biodiversity.
I'm an environmental health scientist who has spent over 20 years studying pesticides that do harm to human beings. Several years ago, I was part of the study on whether an organic diet can reduce pesticide exposure. This study focused on a group of pesticides which have always been harmful to children's brain development. We found that children who ate traditional diets had nine times higher exposure to these pesticides than children who ate organic diets.
Last month, I published a small study that suggested a path forward to answering the question whether eating organic food actually improves health. My study got a lot of attention. While the results were novel, they didn't answer the big question. As I toldThe New York Timesin 2003, “What does this really mean for the safety of my kids? But we don't know. Nobody does. It was true then, and it's still true now.”
8. Why do most people prefer to buy organic food?
A. For its health benefits.
B. For biodiversity.
C. For its delicious taste.
D. For resource cycling.
9. What does the USDA suggest about organic food?
A. It can improve people's health.
B. It is produced in an environment-friendly way.
C. It can reduce risks of being ill.
D. It has nothing to do with the National Organic Program.
10. What can be concluded from the author's study?
A. Pesticides don't harm children's brain.
B. Traditional diets benefit people's health.
C. Organic diets can reduce pesticide exposure.
D. The results are meaningful to children's safety.
11. What is the best title for the text?
A.What Is Organic Food?
B. Is Organic Food Healthier?
C. How Should We Avoid Pesticides?
D. What Are the Benefits of Organic Food?
D
Sonja Redding and her family were on their way home to Omaha, Nebraska, after a weeklong visit to Washington, D. C. with her two sons, one of whom, 5-year-old Xayvior, has autism(自闭症).
Although all of the other flights had gone fine, Xayvior became angry during one of the flights, and Redding couldn’t calm him.
“It felt like everyone on the plane was looking at us and got angry with my son, ” she wrote in a Facebook post after she got home. “I don’t know what to do when others just don’t understand that he is not just a kid with no discipline(自制力)，but a child with special needs who doesn’t know how to control himself.”
The day was saved by Delta flight attendant(空乘人员)Amanda Amburgy. She tried to help Xayvior watch a movie, but when that failed, she offered to take him on a tour of the airplane.That worked, and soon the child was not only calm, but having a good time.
“When they came back, Xayvior was much calmer and happier,” wrote Redding in the post，which now has 2,700 likes and over 500 shares. “I want to thank this Delta attendant. She didn’t judge, and she just showed love. We need more people like this in the world. ”
It wasn’t long before Amburgy was told about the post.“ We’re there to help, and that’s what we want to do,” she said in an interview. “So, we always want to make anything easier for the family as well as other passengers.”
She also shared what she felt when she read Redding’s story. “When I read it, it touched my heart. It’s something I would do for anyone on the plane, because that’s what I’m here for. It really made a difference in her life.”
12. How did Redding feel on the plane?
A. Tired.
B. Uncomfortable.
C. Very angry.
D. Deeply afraid.
13. What did Amburgy do to help the family?
A. She asked the family to stay beside her.
B. She asked the other passengers for help.
C. She tried her best to calm the boy.
D. She helped look after the other boy.
14. Why did Redding post the story?
A. To show her thanks.
B. To help kids with autism.
C. To get in touch with Amburgy.
D. To share her travel experience.
15. Which of the following words can best describe Amburgy?
A. Proud.
B. Honest.
C. Hard-working.
D. Warm-hearted.
第二节（共5小题；每小题2分，满分10分）
阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。

选项中有两项为多余选项Why are some people successful and others aren’t? What’s the secret of success?___16___
Many of Gladwell’s ideas appear in his social psychology bestsellerOutliers.___17___Gladwellthinks that this is just an excuse for not trying… and if you really want to be good at something, you have to work at it. “Practice isn’t the thing you do once you’re good,” Gladwell writes. “It’s the thing you do that makes you good.”
Central to the book is the “10,000-hour rule”. It means that if you want to be among the best in the world, you need to practise something for 10,000 hours.___18___For example, the Beatles played live inHamburgmore than 1,200 times between 1960 and 1964, which is more than 10,000 hours of playing time. And when Microsoft chairman Bill Gates was 13, he was given access to a high school computer (one of the few available in the country), allowing him to practise computer programming for more than (Yes, you guessed it!) 10, 000 hours.
___19___Take the example of Christopher Langan, who’s mentioned in the book. He’s got an IQ of between 195 and 210 (Albert Einstein’s IQ was estimated to have been between 160 and 180). As a boy at school, Langan was able to take an exam in a foreign language he’d never studied and pass it after just skim-reading a text book for three minutes. However, Langan never graduated from university and worked in labour-intensive jobs his whole life. This proves that intelligence alone will not lead to success—you need hard work, support, finance and opportunities. Gladwell adds, “No one — not rock stars, not professional athletes, not software billionaires, and not even geniuses — ever makes it alone.”
___20___Even after you’ve put in your 10,000 hours of practice, you still need one other key ingredient —
luck. So, you could be the most amazing guitarist in the world, but unless you’re lucky enough to play in front of a record company executive who sees a way of exploiting that talent, you aren’t going to be seeing your name in lights.
A. It isn’t just a question of time and support.
B. Author Malcolm Gladwell thinks he knows.
C. That’s equal to three hours a day for 10 years.
D. Of course, many people argue that you can create your own “luck”.
E. The popular view is that some of us are born talented and others aren’t.
F. The interesting thing is that success has nothing to do with intelligence.
G. Someone who’s willing to practise something for 10,000 hours is probably active.

Why not make good beer for___32___? I thought.
I decided to give up my job to become___33___. When I told Dad he was___34___, but inthe end he___35___me.

【61题详解】
考查固定搭配。

句意：令我吃惊的是，我们分开这么多年后，他还记得我的生日。

“to + one’s +情感名词”，“令某人……”，固定搭配。

故将In改为To。

【62题详解】
考查及物动词。

句意：她性格像她母亲，但外表不像。

resemble看起来像，及物动词，其后直接加宾语，无需用介词like。

故删除like。

【63题详解】
考查可数名词的数。

句意：这出戏得到许多差评后，很快就彻底失败了。

many后需接可数名词复数。

故将
review改为reviews。

【64题详解】
考查动名词的被动语态。

句意：他故意不理睬她的电话，因为他不想被打扰。

feel like doing sth.想要做某事，固定搭配，此处表示被打扰，所以like后需用being done。

故在disturbed前加being。

【65题详解】
考查固定搭配。

句意：她宁愿步行去那里也不愿坐公共汽车。

would rather do sth. than do sth.宁愿做某事而不愿做某事，固定搭配。

故将took改为take。

【66题详解】
考查强调句型。

句意：给我们留下深刻印象的是他强烈的责任感。

分析句子结构可知，此处应该是强调句型：It was+被强调部分+that（强调人时可用who）…”，此处强调的是主语his strong sense of responsibility，应用that。

故将what改为that。

【67题详解】
考查动名词。

句意：我们从来没有想到像他这样的人会自己做这个实验。

imagine sb. doing sth.想象某人做某事，固定搭配。

故将perform改为performing。

【68题详解】
考查定语从句。

句意：我借给他十本杂志，大多数比你想象的还要精彩。

分析句子结构可知，本句先行词是ten magazines，指物，关系词代替它在从句中充当主语，且位于介词of之后，需用which引导非限制性定语从句。

故将who改为which。

【69题详解】
考查副词。

句意：这本字典很值得买。

worth值得的，表示程度时，其前需用副词well，不用very。

故将very 改为well。

【70题详解】
考查时态和主谓一致。

句意：这个女孩和她的父母每年夏天都去海滩。

由时间状语every summer可知，本句谓语动词需用一般现在时态，as well as连接两个并列的主语时，谓语动词需用“就远原则”，所以此处谓语动词的形式取决于The girl，单数，谓语动词需用第三人称单数goes。

故将go改为goes
52.略。
