第一节（共15小题；每小题2分，满分30分）
阅读下列短文，从每题所给的A、B、C、D四个选项中选出最佳选项
A
Many workers have had no choice but to adapt to working from home in recent months since offices shut down due to the COVID-19 pandemic (新冠疫情). And the noisy situation and endless housework may result in a terrible emotion. A new option is waiting foryou. That is WFH: work from a hotel.
Hotel Figuero
A special program titled Work Perks aims to reposition some of 94-year-old Hotel Figuero’s 268 rooms as day-use offices.
According to Managing Director Connie Wang, the set-up launched in June and is a great opportunity to get out of their houses with high-speed Wi-Fi, unlimited printing privileges and free parking. The 350-square-foot rooms sell for $ 129 per day, with an option to extend to an overnight stay for an additional $ 20.
The Wythe
A boutique hotel inBrooklyn. The hotel recently announced a partnership with co-working office space company Industrious through which it is recycling 13 second-story guest rooms to serve as offices for up to four people.
Each of the rooms has a small outdoor platform, and dogs are welcome. Pricing starts at $ 200 and goes up to $ 275, depending on how many people use the space.
The Sawyer
The Sawyer, in Sacramento, California, is offering pool cabanas (更衣室) for use as outdoor offices, complete with fast Wi-Fi, free parking and catered lunch for $ 150 per day.
HotelsByDay
Yannis Moati founded HotelsByDay back in 2015. That company has grown to include more than 1,500 hotels, and has seen a significant increase in the number of inquiries for day-use bookings lately.
Moati said the current situation will force hotels to upgrade themselves to stay alive, and he predicted that offering rooms for day-use only is one of the directions they will go.
1. How much should one pay for a 24-hour stay in Hotel Figuero?
A. $ 129.
B. $ 149.
C. $ 150.
D. $ 200.
2. Which hotel allows pets in?
A. The Wythe.
B. The Sawyer.
C. HotelsByDay.
D. Hotel Figuero.
3. What do we know about Yannis Moati?
A. He started a program titledWork Perks.
B. He has upgraded at least 1,500 rooms.
C. He usually predicts everything correctly.
D. He is optimistic about the WFH trend.
B
There is an old army joke about an officer who asks some soldiers whether any of them are interested in music. When four hands go up, the officer says, “Right, men. You can carry this grand piano down to the officers mess.”
Job recruitment has become more complicated since that story first did the rounds. Today's careers require a lot more than just raw music but that sometimes makes jobs hard to define. An unfortunate result is a form of “adjective inflation” in recruitment ads as employers attempt to make routine tasks sound exciting.
Candidates must sometimes wonder whether they are applying for a 9-to-5-role or to become a member of the Marvel “Avengers”. On Indeed, a job-bunting website, a bar was recently looking for "bartenders who are people focused, quality-driven, and have superhero hospitality powers". The ability to give customers the correct change was not mentioned.
Another British company advertised for “a call-centre ninja, a superhero in people", a Job description which sounds a little over-the top for what was in fact a role at an insurance company in Isleworth. In case you think that ad was not typical. Indeed also had jobs demanding “ninja-like attention to detail". Short of turning up for the interview dressed head-to-toe in black, and then sneaking up behind the managing director at his desk, it is hard to see how candidates could show their ninja qualities.
Not all companies require candidates to possess the qualities of a ninja, of course. Some require applicants to be passionate. The Bluewater shopping mall in southeastEnglandwas looking for “passionate sales-driven brand ambassadors” while “passionate crew members” were needed at a bakery in westLondonfor a wage of just £8. 23 an hour. In fact, passion is pretty hard to keep consistently for 40 hours a week, month after month. Job applicants should find some information from the kind of ads that companies place. If a job ad talks about passion or superheroes, run away faster than a speeding Batmobile. Being a ninja should be reserved for teenage mutant
ninja turtles.
4. Why does the author mention the joke in Paragraph 1?
A. To show that officers enjoy playing tricks on soldiers.
B. To introduce the topic of overstated job ads.
C. To explain the origin of complex job ads.
D. To describe soldiers' everyday life.
5. Which of the following offers a job demanding ninja qualities?
A. The bar.
B. The bakery.
C. The insurance company.
D. The Bluewater shopping mall.
6. What does the author say about the ads requiring passion?
A. They are unrealistic.
B. They are typical of want ads.
C. They are appealing to applicants.
D. They are uncommon on Indeed.
7. How does the author sound when talking about today’s job ads?
A. Curious.
B. Hesitant.
C. Humorous.
D. Sympathetic.
C
Twenty years ago, I became involved in pet therapy(疗法) work with our Angel. As she matured and went through professional training, we realized that she would be good at this new job.
Angel is ten now and works every week. She visits two hospitals providing day care for the elderly, and our library’s PAWS forReadingprogram. At the library, six to ten dogs lie on the floor, and the kids pick a book to read to a dog. After they finish, they get a card with the dog’s picture and history. Angel also helps out at a special-needs camp. She is so popular that everywhere we go people recognize her, especially the kids she has worked with.
We have seen some very special things through our pet therapy work. I brought Angel to our local hospital to visit a woman who was completely unable to move the right side of her body from a stroke(中风). One day, my husband, Jack, got Angel up into a chair next to the woman’s bed, asking her if she wanted to give Angel a treat. She nodded. Angel gently took the treat. Then the woman raised her right hand and started petting Angel. Her friend couldn’t believe her eyes.
After that, every time we saw the woman, she lifted her left hand. We’d tell her she had to use her right hand, and she would. Next, you’ll fall in love with this woman’s story of rearing her own Angel later in her family and
why she calls it the best decision she ever made.
8. Who is Angel?
A. A pet trainer.
B. A hospital
C. A therapy dog.
D. The author’s kid.
9. What does Angel usually do?
A. Save seriously ill people.
B. Pay visits to kids in hospital.
C. Protect the elderly in their homes.
D. Help children at a special camp.
10. Why was the woman’s friend astonished?
A The woman moved her right hand.
B. The woman treated Angel.
C. Angel helped the woman recover.
D. Angel got along with the woman.
11. What does the underlined word “rearing” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Accompanying.
B. Raising.
C. Assisting.
D. Training.
D
Depression（抑郁症）in young adult males, ages 18 or 19, is linked to a 20% greater risk of having a heart attack in middle age, according to a new Swedish study.
The link can be partly explained by poorer stress resilience（抗压能力）and lower physical fitness among teens with mental disorders.
Theresearch included 238,013 men born between 1958 and 1962 who were given examinations in adolescence（青春期）and were then followed into middle age（up to the age of 58 years）. A total of 34,503 men were diagnosed（诊断）with a mental disorder.
The study found thata mental disorder in young adulthond was linked to a higher risk of having heart attack by middle age. Compared to men without a mental illness in young adulthood，the risk of heart attack was 20%higher among men with a diagnosis.
“We already knew that menwho were physically fit in adolescence seem less likely to keep fitness in later years if they have low stress resilience” said study author Dr. Bergh, “Our research has also shown that low stress
resilience is also connected with a greater tendency towards bad behavior, such as higher risks of smoking, drinking and other drug use.”
“Better fitness in adolescence is likely to help protect against later heart disease, particularly if people stay fit as they age. Physical activities may also reduce some of the bad effects of stress. Those in poor health could benefit from additional support to encourage exercise and develop plans to deal with stress,” said Bergh.
12. How does the author develop paragraph 3?
A. By giving examples.
B. By listing figures.
C. By making a comparison.
D. By drawing a conclusion.
13. What are men with low stress resilience likely to do?
A. Smoke more.
B. Eat more.
C. Sleep less.
D. Do less exercise.
14. What will Bergh agree with according to the last paragraph?
A. Physical activitiesadd to stress.
B. Stress may cause heart disease.
C. Taking exercise is unnecessary.
D. Staying fit is of great importance.
15. In which section of a newspaper may this text appear?
A. Entertainment.
B. Health.
C. Education.
D. Fashion.

How To Cultivate Your Confidence
Self-confidence, the combination of self-efficacy and self-esteem, is an essential part of humanity. A person with self-confidence generally is willing to take risks to achieve his personal goals. Someone who lacks self-confidence, however, is less likely to feel that he can achieve his goals.___16___
Identify your negative thoughts,
Your negative thoughts might sound like this: “I can’t do that,” “I will surely fail”. This inner voice is pessimistic and unhelpful and will hold you back from achieving high self-esteem and greater self-confidence.
Turn your negative thoughts to positive thoughts.
___17___This may take the form of positive affirmations, such as “I am going to try it,” “I can be successful if I work at it,” or “people will listen to me.” Start with just a few positive thoughts a day.
Refuse to allow negative thoughts to occur more often than positive thoughts.
Eventually, your positive thoughts should be given more “brain space” than your negative thoughts.___18___ ___19___Avoid spending time around things that can make you feel bad about yourself again. These might
be reminders from the past, clothing that no longer fits, or places that don’t fit with your new goals of gaining confidence. Though you may not be able to get rid of every negative source in your life, you can certainly think about how to cut your losses.___20___
A. Get away from your past.
B. Rid reminders of your negativity.
C. This will go a long way in building up your self-confidence.
D. This means that you can have an abundance of self-confidence.

Generally spoken, the relationship between students and people around us was good. We are getting on well with each other. Therefore, there still exist some problems. Some students lose his temper easily because of learning burden. They sometimes quarrel with others, that is very disappointing. In my opinion, we middle school students should make our efforts improve the situation. Firstly, we should respect of other people. Secondly, when we are not feeling happily, we can chat with our friends or teachers or even parents. This is likely that they can give us some reasonable advices. Last but not least, we can try to make some changes in our way of life.

52.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。

My school had a tradition. Every year during the eighth grade graduation, a beautiful gold and green jacket with the winner’s name was awarded to the student who had maintained the highest grade for eight years.
I fully expected to win that jacket. I had been a straight A plus student since the first grade. But because I was born in a poor farmer’s family, I couldn’t afford a sports school jacket. This scholarship jacket was my only chance.
One day I was almost back at my classroom’s door when I heard angry voices and arguing. I stopped. I
recognized the voices: Mr. Schmidt,my history teacher, and Mr. Boone, the headmaster. They seemed to be arguing about me. “I refuse to do it! I don’t care who her father is. Her grades can never compare to Martha’s. I won’t lie or falsify records.” That was Mr. Schmidt and he sounded very angry. Mr. Boone’s voice sounded quiet. “...Martha is Mexican...won’t do it...” Hearing that, my eyes watered.
The next day, the headmaster called me into the office. He looked uncomfortable. I looked him straight in the eyes, but he looked away. “Martha,” he said, “There’s been a change in policy this year regarding the scholarship jacket. As you know, it has always been free. This year the Board decided to charge fifteen dollars. So if you cannot afford it, it will be given to …”
“I’ll speak to my dad about it first, sir,” I interrupted,“I will let you know tomorrow.” With these words, I rushed out and cried on the walk home.
When I got home, my dad was busy. I approached him and said nervously in Spanish, which was the only language he could speak, “Dad, the headmaster said this year the scholarship jacket was going to cost 15 dollars. Can you give me the money?” After a few minutes’ silence, my dad turned to me and asked quietly, “If you pay for the jacket, do you think it is still a scholarship? Tell your headmaster we will not pay.” I was angry with his words, but I knew he was right.
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。

I dragged into the headmaster’s office the next day, but this time he looked me in the eyes.
