balance between my ambition and the expectation from my parents who were not rich...But what I feared most of myself at your age was not poverty,but failure.The fact that you are graduating from Harvard suggests that you know little about failure,you might be driven by a fear of failure quite as much as a desire for success.Steve Jobs,Stanford UniversitySometimes life’s going to hit you in the head with a brick.Don’of your life,and the only way to be truly satisfied is to do what you believe is great work,and the only way to do great work is to love what you do.If you haven’t found it

deaths could be avoided according to the scientists.For the health of the planet,they say the same diet will reduce (减少) greenhouse gases and save more land,water and animals.This new food plan is the result of a three-year project organized by The Lancet health journal.Tim Lang,a professor at Britain’s University of London.He said,“The food we eat and how we produce it decide the health of people and the planet.”Lang added,“The world’s population is expected to grow to 10 billion people by 2050.If we want to feed everyone,we all need to change what we eat and the way we eat by improving food production and reducing food waste.”So,what do you eat on the “planetary health”diet?The scientists who created the “planetary health”diet say it is largely plant-based but still has a little milk,fish and meat.The diet calls for cutting down red meat and sugar by 50 percent and increasing nuts,fruits,and vegetable.Walter Willet of Harvard University in the United States also talked about the “planetary health”diet.He said,“More than 800 million people around the world do not get enough food while many more people have very unhealthy diets.”The scientists think it difficult to reach their aim.But for them,doing nothing is also not a choice.Willet said,“If we can’t make the best diet,it’s better to try and get as close as we can.”12.What decides the health of people and the planet according to Tim Lang?A.The taste of the food.B.The number of population.C.The climate and our living conditions.D.The food we eat and the way we produce it.13.What does the “planetary health”diet mainly contain?k.B.Meat.C.Sugar.D.Plants.14.What do scientists say about the “planetary health”diet?A.It is very easy to produce it.B.It is better to try their best to make it.C.It is better to do nothing than fail.D.It is impossible to make it.15.What is the best title for the text?A.Humans Health Is Very Important.B.Many People don’t Get Enough Food.C.A New Kind of Diet may Save the

The ticket is $10.00. But on Tuesdays you’ll get in free.★The Sears Tower is the world’s third ta llest building. By going to the 103rd floor, you can get a great view of the whole city! All for only $8.50.Free show★There are free concerts in Grant Park in summer. They are held from Wednesday to Saturday at 7:00 pm.★Attend the taping of a TV show for free.

However, you can get a room in the dormitoryat Roosevelt University for $215 for a whole week! But you have to stay for 30 days to get this great rate(价格).1. This passage tells us _________.A.

It will cost you ________ if you visit the Art Institute instead of the Sears Tower on Sundays.A. moreB. lessC. a littleD. nothing3.

The Sears Tower is the world’s third tallest building.D. You can get tickets to the Oprah Winfrey Show as soon as you arrive.BSome people think that as more and more people have televisions in their homes, fewer and fewer people will buy books and newspapers. Why read an article in the newspaper, when the TV news can bring you the information in a few minutes and with pictures? Why read the life story of a famous man, when a short television program can tell you all that you want to know? Television has not killed reading, however. Today, newspapers sell in very large numbers. And books of every kind are sold more than ever before. Books are still a cheap way to get information and enjoyment. Although some books with hard covers are expensive, many books are printed today as paperbooks (平装本), which are quite cheap. A paperback collection of short stories, for example, is always cheaper than an evening at the cinema or the theater, and you can keep a book for ever and read it many times.Books are a wonderful provider of knowledge and pleasure and some types of books should be inevery home. Every home should have a good dictionary. A good encyclopedia (百科全书), though expensive, is useful, too, because you can find information on any subject. Besides, you can have such books as history books, science textbook, cookbooks, and collections of stories and poems. Then from time to time you can take a book of poems off your shelves and read the thoughts and feelings of your favorite poets.1．It can be inferred from the passage that ________.A. TV programs are a chief provider of knowledge.B. cinemas are the best choice in getting information.C. reading is a cheap way of learning and having fun.D. newspapers are an expensive way to enjoy oneself.2．What does the sentences “Television has not killed reading, however ” underlined in the second paragraph suggest?A. People only need reading, though.B. Reading is still necessary today.C. Reading is more fun than television.D. Watching television doesn’t help reading.3．What can we learn from the passage?CZach drove over to Mary’s place. She would be his wife soon. She was in China, visiting her parents. Her son Bradley hadn’t gone with her. Bradley was a junior in high school. He neither liked nor disliked Zach, even though he had known Zach for three years. Zach was still trying to get along well with Bradley.When Zach arrived, he asked if Bradley wanted to drive his car. Bradley had a driver’s licens e. Bradley said all right. Zach told him not to drive fast, but that he could drive anywhere he wanted. Bradley got on the road. Zach gave Bradley a few driving tips: Don’t drive next to big trucks, because you never know when they might crush(碾压) you. Don’t drive behind trucks filled with things, because you never know when something in the truck will fly out and hit your car.On their way back, Zach suggested that they stop at the golf course. He wanted to show Bradley how to play golf. Bradle y wasn’t interested. He preferred his video games. But Bradley soon discovered that golf was fun! He hit a lot of balls. Zach told him that he was doing well. The next day Bradley, for the first time ever, called Zach. He had a few blisters(水疱) on his hands. Zach said that usually happened. Then Bradley asked if Zach would come next Saturday so they could take a drive and hit golf balls again. Zach said, of course, and felt happy.1. The best title(题目) for the text might be “________”.A. You are not my dad, but I begin to love you!B. I begin to love you, my son!C. You can do better, boy!D. Do you love me, dad?2. Zach let Bradley drive his car because ________.A. he wanted to teach Bradley how to driveB. he wanted to take Bradley to the golf courseC. he wanted to go to see MaryD. he wanted to get on well with Bradley3. At first, Bradley liked ________ better than golf.A. drivingB. video gamesC. his lessonsD. a driver’s license4. The next day, Bradley telephoned mainly to ________.A. ask Zach to teach him to driveB. ask Zach to see his mother MaryC. show Zach his friendlinessD. invite Zach to the golf courseDSocieties all over the world name places in similar ways. Quite often there is no official naming ceremony but places tend to be called names as points of reference by people. Then an organized body steps in and gives the place a name. Frequently it happens that a place has two names: One is named by the people and the other by the government. As in many areas, old habits died hard, and the place continues to be called by its unofficial name long after the meaning is lost.Many roads and places in Singapore are named in order that the pioneers will be remembered by future generations. Thus we have names such as Stamford Road and Raffles Place. This is in keeping with traditions in many countries —in both the West and the East.Another way of naming places is naming them after other places. Perhaps they were named to promote friendships between the two places or it could be that the people who used to live there were originally from the places that the roads were named after. The mystery is clearer when we see some of the roads named in former British bases. If you step into Selector Airbase you will see Piccadilly Circus —obviously named by some homesick Royal Air Force personnel.Some places were named after the activities that used to go on at those places. Bras Basah Road is an interestin g example, “Base Basah” means “wet rice” in Malay（马来语）. Now why would anyone want to name a road “Wet Rice Road”? The reason is simple. During the pioneering days, wet rice was laid out to dry along this road.A few roads in Singapore are named by their sh apes. There is “Circular Road” for one. Other roads may have part of their names to describe their shapes, like “Paya Lebar Crescent”. This road is called a crescent（月牙）because it begins on the main road, makes a crescent and comes back to join the main road again.1．What does the underlined phrase “die hard” in Paragraph 1 probably mean?A. Change suddenly.B. Change significantly.C. Disappear mysteriously.D. Disappear very slowly.2．Which of the following places is named after a person?A. Raffles Place.B. Selector Airbase.C. Piccadilly Circus.D. Paya Lebar Crescent.3．What can be inferred from the passage?A. Some place names in Singapore are the same as in Britain.B. Some places in Singapore are named for military purposes.C. The way Singaporeans name their places is unique.D. Young Singaporeans have forgotten the pioneers.四、阅读填空What is a dream?For centuries, people have wondered about the strange places that they seem to visit in their sleep.1 However, they have been valued as necessary to a person's health and happiness. Historically people thought dreams contained messages from God. It was only in the twentieth century that people started to study dreams scientifically believing that they tell about a person's character.2 He believed that dreams allow a person to express fantasies or fears, which would be socially unacceptable in real life.The second theory to become popular was Carl Jung's compensation theory. Jung, a former student of Freud, said that the purpose of a dream is not to hide something, but rather to communicate it to the dreamer. 3 Thus, people who think too highly of themselves may dream about falling; those who think too little of themselves dream of being heroes.Using more recent research, William Domhoff from the University of California found that dreaming is a mental skill that needs time to develop in humans. , 4 Until they reach age five, they can not express very well what their dreams are about. Once people become adults, there is little or no change in their dreams. The dreams of men and women differ. For instance, The characters that appear in the dreams of men are often other men, and often involve physical aggression.The meaning of dreams continues to be difficult to understand. 5 If you dream that a loved one is going to die, do not panic. The dream may have meaning, but it does not mean that your loved one is going to die.A．Dreams make up for what is lacking in waking life.B．However, people should not take their dreams as reality.C．They have been considered as meaningless nighttime journeys.D．It gives scientists chances to better understand human mind.E．Children do not dream as much as adults.F．They think their mind is trying to tell them something.G．First, there was Sigm und Freud’s theory.五、书面表达参考答案三、阅读理解A1-4 CABDB1-3 DCBC1-4 ADBCD1-3 DAA四、阅读填空1-5 CGAEB五、书面表达。

Here is some advice I want to give you.To keep fit, it is necessary for you to have a healthy diet. You’d better have different foods, especially fruits and vegetables, and drink milk as often as possible. It’s not a good idea to take weight-loss pills for a slim and attractive figure. It is not worth it. Having enough sleep together with regular exercise such as walking and riding is also beneficial to your health. Besides, you should take an active part in school sports. In my opinion, it is not a good habit to spend too much time reading, watching TV or chatting on-line. Always be active and keep optimistic and don’t be discouraged (disappointed/frustrated/upset) whenever you meet with trouble.Yours,Li Hua。

I hadn’t considered it until a girl came up to me and said, “You look like a good runner.

What do I have to do?”“It is a lot of hard work and devotion. It’s not easy.”She was right. My team had practice every day from 3:30 to 6 except for Fridays. When we didn’t have practice, I’d run on my own on the boardwalk. I got faster and focused. Track helped me get away from troubles. Arguments with my mom, problems with schoolwork, and dramas with the kids at school. I felt calm every time I ran.I got to the Armory at 7. My team was already there. We gave each other hugs and high fives. When the officials called for the relay race, I went out to the starting line. Then the gun went off. As I pounded the track, I was focusing so much on myself. I started running away from my problems. I couldn’t see anyone or anything but the finish line. Everything else was just a blur. Ifought to the finish line. I wasn’t only fighting against the other teams; I was also fighting to win my battle against my stress.I could feel the wind blowing against my skin. I felt like I was flying. My stress disappeared.

Deforestation speeds up climate change, which is worsening droughts in the Horn of Africa, including Kenya, where rains have failed for five seasons in a row. So the government has set aside more than $ 80 million this year, managing to augment tree coverage to more than 10%.“It is a moment for Kenyans to stand together in the defense of our environment,” said Soipan Tuya, the Environment Minister. He referred to the day as “a ‘hummingbird(s)’ contribution day”. Hummingbirds are small birds, but they play an important part in the environment by pollinating(授粉)flowers.He added, “H aving been planting trees for most of my life, I thought I was doing ratherwell, but the government’s plan to plant 15 billion trees by 2032 was ‘an unprecedented(史无前例的)show of promise by the government towards our climate action duties.’”8．What is the purpose of the public holiday?A．To increase economic income. B．To encourage people to plant trees.C．To allow people to get more rest. D．To remind people to get close to nature. 9．Which word is the closest in meaning to “augment” in paragraph 3?A．Increase. B．Figure. C．Record. D．Stop.10．What does Soipan Tuya want to say by referring to the day as “a ‘hummingbird’ contribution day”?A．We should get on well with birds. B．No contribution is too small to leave animpact.C．Each animal is important to nature. D．It is time to protect hummingbirds. 11．What is the best title for the text?A．Kenya Is Taking Action to Protect WildlifeB．Kenya Is in Face of Environmental ProblemsC．Kenya Improves Relationships with Their NeighborsD．Kenya Surprises the Public with a Holiday to Plant TreesDAre you a fan of birds? If so, you may have admired their beautiful colors and sweet songs. But do you know these feathered friends can actually do more than that?A new study published in the journal Scientific Reports finds that exposure to birds, either in the home or outdoors, can boost people’s moods.Researchers at King’s College London used a smartphone app built by the school’s Urban Mind project to collect the real-time feelings of study participants upon seeing or hearing a bird. A total of 1,292 people living in the United Kingdom, Europe, and the United States participated in the study which was conducted between April 2018 and October 2021.The app asked participants three times a day whether they could see or hear a bird followed by a series of questions on their mental well-being. Participants were also asked questions about whether they could see trees, plants or hear any water to see if people were experiencing better mental well-being due to being in or seeing nature, and not just because of exposure to birds.According to the study, the mental well-being of study participants with and without depression was significantly improved after seeing a bird or hearing birdsong compared to not seeing or hearing a bird.There is a growing number of studies that link spending time outdoors (either in green leafy places or next to bodies of water) to improved mental health. But there are few studies that look at how different aspects of nature can play into humans’ me ntal well-being.And while the study adds to the small pile of research on birds and mental health, the report marks the first time researchers have studied the responses to birds and mental well-being in real-time, according to Ryan Hammoud, lead author of the study.“They kind of examine nature as a single object when nature includes many different characteristics and features like trees, plants, water, birds,” said Hammoud, “We choose to focus on bird life to try and understand which specific characteristics of nature benefit mental well-being.”12．What is the purpose of paragraph 1?A．To introduce a phenomenon. B．To bring in the topic.C．To ask an interesting question. D．To provide background information. 13．How did the researchers conduct the study?A．By analyzing previous studies. B．By observing the behavior of birds.C．By gathering feelings of participants. D．By studying people’s effect on birds. 14．What does Hammoud think of the new study?A．Pioneering. B．Interesting. C．Conventional. D．Practical. 15．What is the main idea of the text?A．Bird watching has become a popular hobby.B．Exposure to birds can improve mental well-being.C．Nature is the best medicine for mental health issues.D．Spending time outdoors can impact mental health positively.第二节(共5小题;每小题2.5分,满分12.5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。

AToday almost everyone knows computers and the Internet. If I ask you “What is the most important in your life?”, maybe you will say “Computers and the Internet.”The first computer was made in 1946. It was very big but it worked slowly. Today computers are getting smaller and smaller. But they work faster and faster. What can computers do? A writer has said, “People can’t live without computers today.”The Internet came a little later than computers. It is about twenty-five years later than computers. But now it can be found almost everywhere. We can use it to read books, write letters, do shopping, play games or make friends.Many students like the Internet very much. They often go into the Internet as soon as they are free. They make friends on the Internet and maybe they have never seen these friends. They don’t know their real names, ages, and even sex (性别). They are so interested in making the “unreal friends” that they can’t put their heart into study.

When one person gains weight, close friends often gain weight, too.VOICE TWO:The study shows that when a person becomes severely overweight, there is a fifty-seven percent increased chance that one of his or her friends will become severely overweight, too. A sister or brother of the overweight person has forty percent increased chance of becoming fat. The increased risk for a wife or husband is a little less than that. Nicholas Christakis of Harvard Medical School was a lead researcher in the study. He says his research shows fat people are not choosing fat friends.VOICE ONE:The study found that the sex of the friends is also an influence. In same-sex friendships, a person has a seventy-one percent increased risk of getting fat. The same is true for brothers and sisters separately.VOICE TWO:The other lead researcher was James Fowler of the University of California. Mr Fowler says physical closeness has little influence and a friend who lives a few hundred kilometers away has as much influence as one in your neighborhood. He says the study shows the need to consider that a major part of a person’s health is tied to his or her social connections.VOICE ONE:Both Doctor Christakis and Mr Fowler agree that fatness is not just a private (个人的) medical issue, but a public health problem. They say close friends probably influence what a person finds acceptable and unacceptable. If a friend is fat, the idea of being overweight becomes more acceptable. The researchers say if friends help make fatness acceptable, they might also be influential in the fight against fatness.43. What is the best title of the passage?A. The cause of fatness.B.

Well, having friends may well keep you healthier and help you deal with stress better. Some studies show that people with close friends have a greater ability to fight disease than people who are lonely. But never take a friendship for granted. Like a good marriage, friendship needs care and patience. Here is something to remember to maintain a friendship:Make friendship the most important thing.

Listen to your friends when they have problems, but offer advice only when it’s wanted.Have different friends for different activities, such as going to the movies, singing in a choir, or taking part in a bowling league.Don’t wait for a friend to ask a favor. When a friend has the flu, offer to g o to the store to buy some pills or drive his / her children to their after-school activities.How to make new friends?You can start a group, such as a discussion group on gardening or books.
