bus，I was so thankful to find a window seat.When I sat there，I saw an old man watching me."Excuse me？Can I sit here？"His voice was deep."Yes，of course!"I said.He looked kind of nervous，or tired.He let out a sigh（叹气）and relaxed a bit in his seat."Hi，I'm Tony."I said as I gave him my right hand to shake."George."He looked at me for a couple of seconds before accepting my hand.He was friendly and we talked about this trip.I knew he was 70 and headed to Birmingham to visit his son and grandchildren.I told him about my grandfather，and we both seemed to relax.Our conversation was rudely interrupted by my stomach.I took out a sandwich and took a big bite.I noticed George was watching me eating.He probably was hungry."Would you eat with me？"I said as I handed him my second sandwich."No，no，I don't want to eat your food.You will need that for your next coach.""No，I won't.I will eat again on the plane.Plus，I don't really like eating alone."The determination（决心）on my face must have been very persuasive（有说服力的），because after a moment's hesitation（犹豫），he nodded his head weakly and accepted the sandwich.After eating，I decided that I should have a nap.I had an hour to kill before we reached Birmingham.The sudden tap（轻拍）on my shoulder made me open my eyes.It was George.He told me we had reached Birmingham.I said，"Nice to meet you，George.I hope you have a great time with your family."As I extended（伸出）my hand for a final handshake，he not only took it，but cupped it in both his hands."Thank you for being so kind to me.Safe travels."He said and turned around to get off the bus.I didn't know what he walked away with that day，but I walked away with a sense of satisfaction.His words"Thank you for being so kind to me"kept ringing in my ears and I kept smiling to myself.（1）Tony met

one kind of exercise in controlling attention.Meditators use some practices，like keeping focus on breathing，to strengthen the ability to take control over what their minds are doing.While meditators have long experienced its benefits，science only recently discovered that the mental effort of meditation is good exercise for the brain.Meditation has much to do with cognition，a term to describe the thought processes inside our heads（like focusing，making decisions，and remembering）that allow us to understand the world.Meditators are really good at using several cognitive abilities to stay focused.When they learn that their minds wander（走神），they quickly bring their attention back，which is like doing a mental push﹣up.All these mental push﹣upsend up strengthening their ability to change their thoughts based on what they are doing right now，like changing from doing math to reading when they go to different classes.Groups of brain areas that communicate are called brain networks，and the health of the brain depends on the ability of brain networks to communicate well.Science has shown that meditation can improve sustained attention，which is how well a person can keep their attention on something hard for a long time.Scientists can measure improvements in sustained attention by looking for increases in certain brain waves，using EEG（脑电图）.It proves that meditation can make the brain areas involved in attention communicate with each other more easily.Meditation can even change the way that meditators' brain networks communicate，by bringing new，helpful brain areas into the conversation or getting rid of a brain area that is too loud and distracting （分心的）.As a result，meditators get better at focusing their attention away from negative thoughts and feelings and putting themselves into a good mood.These changes take a long time and a lot of work.People need to make meditation a habit and guidance from a teacher can be helpful.Yet，not everyone can afford a personal teacher.That's where technology steps in.Scientists have made apps that provide tips and help people meditate at their own levels.While some digital meditation apps have been carefully studied by scientists，some need to be tested.So，it is important to be careful at first about whether an app really works.（1）According to the passage，when people meditate，they .A.try to control their focusB.focus on what goes aroundC.make important decisionsD.develop the ability to communicate（2）What can we learn from the passage？A.Meditators end their practice when their minds wander.B.Meditation makes it possible for people to have happier moods.C.Certain brain waves decrease when sustained attention improves.D.Digital meditation apps work better than personal meditation teachers.（3）What might be the best title for the passage？A.How does meditation benefit the brain？B.How do people make meditation a habit？C.How does technology improve meditation？D.How do meditalors better their mental health？16．We all experience different levels of stress，and we can manage a certain amount of it while still feeling comfortable and fulfilled.But everywhere you look today，some people are stressed out.Why do people seem to have more stress？Many researchers agree that stress comes down to the larger number of tasks and our higher expectations.But we believe there is more to consider.The attitudes towards the tasks can also influence the level of stress.An attitude is the way that you think and feel about things.Bad attitudes towards the tasks can slow down the management of the tasks.Some people may be overwhelmed（压倒）by their growing list of to﹣do items.This can lead to anxiety.For many，anxiety can be painful.For some，anxiety can be so painful that they may avoid tasks big and small.Avoidance can lead to an expanding list of unfinished tasks.When some one reminds us to face what we have not completed or when a new pressure has been added，the burden（负担）becomes too much.For example，if someone tells us tomorrow is the deadline of our projects or a new one is given to us，we are facing the accumulation（积累）of stress.One of the elements that influence attitudes is emotions.Emotions are powerful internal（内部的）experiences that influence attitudes and behaviors by shaping ideas，evaluations，and decision﹣making processes.Pleasant emotions tend to promote positive attitudes，while unpleasant emotions can lead to negative attitudes.Furthermore，negative emotions will reduce the thinking process that is necessary to handle stress.For example，shame over unfinished projects or unmet expectations can push us down，and negative judgment can create a lack of self﹣belief，which can affect performance and the overall management of stress.When you're stressed out and have a bad attitude on top of that stress，you will feel that even the simplest tasks are boring and impossible to do，which can increase your stress level.But if we want to have less stress on our tasks，it's time to have proper attitudes.（1）You will most probably experience the accumulation of stress when you .A.leave your tasks to the last minuteB.have comfortable feelings at schoolC.have positive attitudes towards your workD.are able to finish your homework correctly every day（2）Why does the writer talk about anxiety in Paragraph 3？A.To provide examples of the growing list.B.To show a new way to face the stress.C.To help us know the importance of the tasks.D.To explain the relationship between attitudes and stress.（3）What do you know about the attitudes and emotions from the passage？A.Emotions are a kind of behaviors guided by attitudes.B.Pleasant emotions can lead to negative attitudes.C.Emotions are easier to change than attitudes.D.Attitudes are affected by emotions.（4）The writer probably agrees that .A.positive attitudes can help people feel less stressedB.people can change attitudes by observing people around themC.high expectation is a key part of effective stress managementD.people have pleasant emotions when they fall behind on tasks17．Every time I look at the many recent orders on my online shopping account，or I receive a new package on my doorstep，I get a feeling of happiness that is hard to give up.Although I know that my shopping habits are bad for the planet，I just can't stop.But Ann﹣Christine Duhaime's new book，Minding the Climate：How Neuroscience Can Help Solve Our Environmental Crisis，has helped me understand that my desire（渴望）to keep buying things isn't necessarily a personal weakness —it's the way our brains have developed.According to Duhaime，we managed to stay alive even when things were hard because our brains learned to repeat decisions like moving towards a tasty treat or backing away from danger.Today，we have some 86 billion neurons （神经元）in the brain continuously working to strengthen rewarding behavior—a kind of action thatresults in a positive outcome，which makes a person want to do it again.As the neurons work，they produce dopamine（多巴胺），which makes our rewarding behavior feel even better than usual.We actively look for more dopamine，and at the same time，learn to repeat the actions that lead to it.However，Duhaime stresses that our brains are not programmed to keep buying more and more.All humans are different，and our brains work differently depending on our genetics（遗传性）and our life experiences.The challenge is that our brain systems are designed for short﹣term decision﹣making.When we buy something new，we get rewarded immediately.But the long﹣term worsening of the planet is harder for the reward centers of our brains to understand，even if we know about it.And there may be some ways to break the cycle.The best is not to stop buying things completely；a better solution may be to substitute the old rewards that we know aren't good in the long run with new ones.For example，you can have a glass of milk，which gives you fewer calories，instead of eating chocolate just before bed for comfort.Once you start losing weight，the reward of being able to fit into your old clothes feels as good as what the chocolate would do.We need that same substitution for shopping.Buying used things could also help satisfy our desire to get more things without using more natural resources.Additionally，creating social rewards，like encouragement and support from a community with similar goals，can inspire positive changes.Humans naturally like to connect with others，and this social support can lead to more eco﹣friendly choices.（1）What do you know about human brains from the passage？A.The way brains work won't be influenced by life experiences.B.Neurons play a role in people's repeating rewarding behavior.C.Less dopamine is produced when people get positive outcomes.D.Brains don't care about the short﹣term effects of people's actions.（2）The word"substitute" in Paragraph 5 probably means" "A.take the place ofB.look forward toC.get ready forD.make up for（3）The writer probably agrees that .A.over﹣shopping harms the development of the human brainB.keeping buying gels in the way of people finding happinessC.the planet is free from the influence of people's buying behaviorD.creating social rewards can help people reduce the desire to over﹣shop（4）What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage？A.To explain why over﹣shopping is not a personal weakness.B.To show how dopamine makes people crazy about shopping.C.To guide people to make eco﹣friendly choices when shopping.D.To encourage people to buy used things to protect the environment.四．书面表达（共1小题）18．某英文网站青少年板块正在开展以"学会和父母相处"为主题的征文活动。

"Curious，she asked her grandmother about it."That is the tradition of our family，"her grandmother explained."Every day，for generations（世代），we complete one act of kindness and take it down.No matter

behaviours.Winston Churchill noted："We shape our buildings and then our buildings shape us."Buildings and the city environment have been found to influence our general emotion and wellbeing.Architects（建筑师）have often been focused on their imagination and design above how a space may influence its residents（居住者）.However，there are a number of architects moving in a new direction，interested in creating people﹣centred building designs.Research carried out by Colin Ellard of the University of Waterloo，Canada，has found that people are often strongly affected by building plex （复杂的）and interesting appearance design influences people much more positively than simple design.Many studies have shown the value of green space and woodland in a city environment and how they can help to reduce the stress that comes with city life.The visual （视觉的）complexity of green spaces plays into Ellard's theory that the human brain prefers complex and lively environment.Another study in Iceland in 2023 found that streets which vary because of their architecture were the most emotionally pleasant.This all leads to the idea that we want variation in our environments.Another research has shown that growing up in an city environment can double a person's chance of developing problems such as worry.It shows that the stress of city life is something that needs to be considered and new spaces should be designed with stress management and wellness in mind.It would be wrong to say style isn't important.We want things which look fantastic as well as work practically，but things can go wrong and influence us negatively if style becomes more important than the building itself.Architects who want to show their skills must consider the purpose of the building.For example，schools should look bright with open spaces，green areas and comfortable corners for reading and learning.No one wants a building to create bad feelings.If we can create spaces which appeal to residents，as well as achieving their purpose，then the end result is much more satisfying and much more likely to stand the test of time.Our cities are set to grow year on year with no end in sight，so we should make sure new development s are built more with people in mind.（1）What do you know about architects from the passage？A.They are running out of creativity.B.Their stress needs to be considered.C.They have to take tests from time to time.D.Their design starts to focus on human feelings.（2）The writer probably agrees that .A.there should be more buildings in green colour in citiesB.visually complex design is more likely to create stressC.it is a must to consider the building itself and its styleD.buildings with simple appearance bring us comfort（3）The words"appeal to"in the last paragraph are closest in meaning to .A.pleaseB.houseC.shapeD.upset（4）What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage？A.To criticize architects for their great mistakes.B.To call for the people﹣centred design of buildings.C.To suggest how to make architectures emotionally pleasant.D.To stress the importance of architectures to a city environment.15．A 16﹣year﹣old boy named Li Tao lived in a small town in China.One day，while Li Tao was doing his science homework，he came up with a great idea.He worked out a way to make a new type of power supply（供应）for his town，which had a problem with its electricity supply.To make his idea come true，Li Tao began to experiment at home.He was so confident that nothing could stop him from inventing.He made and took apart many models.Even though he faced lots of challenges and failures，he didn't give up.He fixed his mistakes，changed his plans，and kept working hard.After two years of hard work，he finally succeeded.He made a small device（设备）that could change wind power into electrical power successfully.This was a new，environmentally﹣friendly way for his town's power problem.News about Li Tao's invention quickly spread around his school and town，and everyone really took pride in his achievement.The group of science﹣technology of the town decided to help him improve the invention.He was invited to give a speech to encourage other teenagers to learn more about science and be more creative in the Science and Technology Meeting.His story encourages teenagers that being young is not a barrier（阻碍）to achieve their dreams.Even a common teenager can do something amazing!（1）What was the problem of the town where Li Tao lived？A.Water pollution.B.Experiment device testing.C.Electricity supply.D.Wind power lightning protection.（2）When Li Tao faced challenges and failures，he .A.encouraged other teenagers to join himB.fixed his mistakes and kept working hardC.gave a speech and learnt more about scienceD.asked the group of science﹣technology for help（3）How did people feel after knowing Li Tao's invention？A.Excited.B.Proud.C.Confident.D.Surprised.16．We rely on our memory for sharing stories with friends or learning from our past experiences.Yet evidence shows that our memory isn't as consistent as we'd like to believe.There are countless reasons why tiny mistakes might happen each time we recall past events.And whenever these mistakes happen，they can have long﹣term effects on how we'll recall that memory in the future.Take storytelling for example.When we describe our memories to other people，we might ask ourselves whether it's important to get the facts straight，or whether we only want to make the listener laugh.And we might change the story's details depending on the listener's attitudes.It isn't only the message that changes，but sometimes it's also the memory itself.This is known as the"audience﹣tuning effect"，showing us how our memories can change automatically over time，as a product of how，when，and why we access them.In fact，sometimes simply the act of repeating a memory can be exactly what makes it easy to change.This is known as"retrieval﹣enhanced suggestibility".In a typical study of this effect，participants watched a short film，then took a memory test a few days later.But during the days between watching the film and taking the final test，two other things happened.First，half of the participants took a practice memory test.Second，all of the participants were given a description of the film to read，which contained some false details.Participants who took a practice memory test shortly before reading the false information were more likely to reproduce this false information inthe final memory test.Why might this be？One theory is that repeating our memories of past events can temporarily make those memories malleable.In other words，retrieving （找回）a memory might be a bit like taking ice﹣cream out of the freezer and leaving it in direct sunlight for a while.By the time our memory goes back into the freezer，it might have naturally become a little misshapen，especially if someone has influenced it purposely in the meantime.These findings lead us to wonder how much our most treasured memories have changed since the very first time we remembered them.Remembering is an act of storytelling，after all.And our memories are only ever as reliable as the most recent story we told ourselves.（1）The writer takes storytelling for example to prove that .A.it is impossible to change the listener's attitudesB.it is important to describe our memories directlyC.we can make other people laugh to y telling storiesD.we may change our memories according to the listener（2）What do you know about memory from the passage？A.Our memories can change our personalities.B.Our memories can correct mistakes on their own.C.We can take a practice memory test to strengthen our memories.D.We can reproduce the information while repeating our memories.（3）The word"malleable"in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to .A.reasonableB.valuableC.changeableD.controllable17．Clean electricity is the power of the future，but engineers are facing a big challenge.How can we store electricity to be used at times when the wind is not blowing and the sun is not shining？In some cases，the answer will be batteries；but in other cases，it could come from a variety of different solutions—starting with gravity.Gravity is the most abundant source of power on Earth.It's always been everywhere since the beginning of time.Nobody knew about it until around 1700，when Isaac Newton saw an apple fall from a tree in hisgarden.Newton asked himself the question："Why did that apple fall to the ground？" And he soon worked out the answer.Everything will fall to the ground if it can do so，because there is a massive force that pulls things towards the centre of the earth.Newton decided to call this force "gravity"，a word that then just meant "weight".Engineers have used gravity as a source of power for centuries，long before Newton first explained it.In particular，they used gravity to move water from one place to another to irrigate（灌溉）field s and bring water to cities.They knew that water would flow downhill，but never uphill，so they built structures to use the force of gravity most effectively.In 1907，engineers in Switzerland first used gravity for a new purpose：to store energy.They pumped（用泵抽送）water up a hill，where they stored it in a lake.Then when they needed more electricity，they let the water come back down the hill，driving electric turbines（涡轮机）as it fell.The idea was just so simple，and it is now used in many parts of the world.However，the problem is that "pumped storage" hydro schemes（抽水蓄能水电方案）can't be built just anywhere，as they need lots of water and big hills or mountains.Some experts believe that gravity systems are the cheapest way to store electricity.Gravity﹣stored electricity is maybe half the price of battery﹣stored electricity，but even so it is not cheap.In order to make gravity more effective，we would need to increase its force—and that，of course，is quite impossible.Yet gravity is not the only way of storing energy，and engineers are working on systems that store it using water pressure or compressed air...and even sand!Storage is one of the big scientific challenges of our time，as storage is the essential partner of wind power and solar power.We need clean electricity 24 hours a day，not just when the sun is shining or the wind is blowing.（1）The word "abundant" in Paragraph 2 probably means .A．expensiveB．environmentalC．famousD．plentiful（2）From the passage，we can know that .A．gravity systems are the cheapest way to store electricityB．"pumped storage" hydro schemes can be built on small hillsC．engineers in Switzerland first stored energy by using gravity creativelyD．experts have already made gravity more effective by increasing its force（3）Why does the author write this passage？A．To tell the story of finding gravity.B．To show the importance of gravity.C．To call on people to use clean electricity.D．To introduce a good way to store electricity.四．书面表达（共1小题）18．某英文网站正在开展以"突破自我，我拼过"为主题的征文活动。

No matter what your age is, you can feel stressed out by things that are happening in your life. Teenagers, however, have many more opportunities to get stressed than people in any other age group. Being a teenager is hard. You are not a child any more, but you are not an adult, even though you have to deal with some very grown-up problems and decisions. Families can be one of the biggest causes of stress, such as problems with parents arguing at home. or problems with brothers and sisters. Teenagers also have a lot of stress from school, either from their teachers or from their friends. Some teenagers also feel stressed about choosing their education after high school. Getting a place at university can be very difficult and some cannot afford to go to university. The stress about getting a job when finishing school is hard for some teenagers. There are so many young people finishing school and not enough jobs for them. Sadly, there is nothing we can do to remove these causes of stress from the 1ives of teenagers, but you can learn the best way to deal with it. Talking to people is one of the best ways to deal with stress. It may sound simple, but it is true. A problem shared is a problem halved.42. Why is being a teenager often difficult?A. Because even though you are not an adult, you must deal with adult problems.B. Because even though you are an adult, you must deal with children ' s problems.C. Because even though you are a teenager, you must do a lot of homework.D. Because adults often make them feel stressed.43. Why can leaving school be a stressful time for teenagers?A.

waveski is，"Carter continued."Just tell them it's a lot like surfing（冲浪），but the riders sit on top of a waveski.When the waves come，they will ride the wave just like a surfer；only they paddle to get out to the waves.""Nobody's grandpa does this."Grandma laughed."Well，what should he be doing instead？""I don't know.Maybe things that old people do.""Look!A big wave is coming in!"Grandma pointed to the ocean.Carter saw Grandpa in front of his friends.He was leaning（倾斜）forward and paddling hard，just ahead of the large incoming wave.Carter was surprised at how hard Grandpa was paddling and how fast he wasmoving.Just then，another huge wave came.Carter jumped to his feet and held his breath.This was not good.What if something bad happened？As the wave drew near，Grandpa paddled harder.He was suddenly lifted by the water and stopped paddling.He leaned toward the wave，changing the direction of the waveski.Now，he was riding the wave，moving fast.Carter was amazed.Grandpa was totally in

oral exam in the local library and people kept disturbing（打扰）me.I was getting more and more annoyed and the more upset I got，the less I was able to concentrate.I couldn't stand when I heard someone singing loudly behind me.I turned around and glared at the person who was singing.It was a tall girl about the same age as me and she was standing with a book in her hands.I picked up my books，looked at her and said angrily，"Thanks to your noise.I've been unable to study.You're so selfish!"Then I left the library in a hurry.When I got home，I realized I'd left my textbook behind and there was nothing I could do as the library was closed.I was so upset that I almost cried.Just then，the phone rang.A girl named Jenny had noticed my book in the library and she got my phone number from the librarian.She said she didn't live far away and could bring it around for me.I was so grateful and agreed to meet her at the store down the road.When I recognized Jenny was the girl I had shouted at for singing，I was filled with shame and apologized several times for my rude behavior.Jenny was kind enough to pardon me.Ever since then we've been best friends and we got along very well.I often think how lucky I am!We two girls are much alike and I trust her more than anyone else.From the experience I know that the first impression is untrue sometimes and we can't judge a person only by the first impression.（1）The writer went to the local library to .A.meet her best friendB.borrow some booksC.prepare for the examD.get back her textbook（2）What did the writer do when she heard someone singing？A.She left the library nervously.B.She shouted at the girl angrily.C.She was too upset to say a word.D.She argued with the girl immediately.（3）Why did the writer think she was lucky at last？A.Because she met kind Jenny.B.Because Jenny pardoned her.C.Because Jenny returned her book.D.Because she passed the exam.16．When Helen Keller was nineteen months old，a brief illness made her both deaf and blind.With such limitations，how could Keller ever be expected to find happiness？Because happiness has been considered a personal concept，it is difficult to define （定义）.Many people throughout history have tried.Greek scientist and philosopher Aristotle wrote，"Happiness depends upon ourselves，" which is not a definition but an observation that individuals are responsible for their own happiness.Roman statesman and philosopher Lucius Seneca wrote of a particular quality of happiness，saying，"True happiness is to enjoy the present，without anxious dependence upon the future."Is there a scientific basis （基础）for happiness？Researcher suggests happiness is a matter of perspective："Truly happy individuals construe life events and daily situations in ways that seem to maintain their happiness，while unhappy individuals construe （理解）experiences in ways that seem to reinforce unhappiness".Basically，this means the way you choose to remember events and situations affects your happiness.Some research concludes happiness is made up of three parts：pleasure，engagement and meaning.Pleasure involves things that give physical and emotional joy，such as playing a sport or seeing beautiful art.Engagement involves positive interactions （互动）with other people，such as studying or working with people whose company you enjoy.Meaning relates to feeling that your work is useful and important to others.Even with scientific rationalization （合理化），questions remain.For example，are younger people happier than older people？In fact，the opposite seems to be true.This may be because younger people tend to experience higher levels of negative emotions，such as anxiety and anger.The young also have less control over their lives because they lack both independence and the ability to make many of their own decisions.Perhaps the most important question is whether you can change how happy you are.Studies of identical twins suggest that genetics forms about half of your happiness level.Your quality of life influences about 10 percent ofyour happiness.That means about 40 percent of your happiness is determined by your choices and actions.From this explanation we can see that one way you can make yourself happier is to set goals.Keller had a definition of happiness in keeping with this idea.She felt happiness did not come from simply trying to satisfy your own desires but rather by contributing your time and skills to improve the world in some way.Even if you are unable to achieve a goal that makes the world better in some small way，simply trying will likely give your life meaning and，at the same time，happiness.（1）Why does the writer mention the words of Aristotle and Seneca？A.To show what is the definition of happiness.B.To suggest that we should enjoy the present.C.To explain why we can choose to be happy or not.D.To stress that people have different ideas about happiness.（2）What can you learn from the passage？A.People should communicate with others positively.B.The young may prefer to make decisions on their own.C.Your happiness influences the way to understand your life.D.Your happiness largely depends on your situation of your life.（3）According to Helen Keller，you may feel happier when you .A.choose your dream schoolB.do clean﹣up in your neighborhoodC.watch your favorite movieD.talk with your closest friends（4）Which of the following would be the best title for the passage？A.A Special Quality of HappinessB.The Positive Effect of HappinessC.The True Meaning of HappinessD.A Scientific Basis of Happiness17．It is so easy to describe people as being talented.Just look at any headline praising a piece of artwork，music，or other great feat，and you are likely to see the word "talented" or "gifted".However，is being talented a true marker of success？Some people believe that talent plays a key role in achieving success fast.Those with natural ability in a particular field can often gain success rapidly with less effort.For example，a person with a natural ear for music may find it easier to learn to play an instrument.Take a look at Wolfgang Mozart.He composed his first musical masterpiece（杰作）at the age of 5．And at the age of 7，he went on his first tours to perform his abilities for the world.In the process of highlighting the "natural" gifts of achievers，hard work can get lost in the mix.The result is that many "talents" believe they only need to depend on their innate（内在的）abilities in order to produce great works.Inevitably，this can lead to disappointment，frustration，and even mental health problems，because the reality is that talent alone is not enough.One is often led to believe that being naturally gifted is the ultimate prerequisite（最终的先决条件）for success in any field.But almost every example of a big achievement involves some degree of putting in some amount of work.In athletics，for example，standout athletes such as Michael Jordan，Usain Bolt，and Serena Williams are often praised for their natural abilities.However，closer analysis of their careers shows that these athletes spent huge chunks of their lives practicing.Aside from working hard，talent can only become useful if the owner of that talent does what is necessary to expand（拓展）it.If your talent is just being good at playing the guitar，for instance，that ability can only get you so far because there are many other people who also know their way around the instrument.How will you set yourself apart from the crowd？You would do so by finding ways to expand your guitar﹣playing capabilities，whether that means learning new finger tricks or mastering different types of guitars.Then you will be more successful than others.Nothing is wrong with having natural abilities.After all，everyone is born to be good at something.However，finding success at any level，and in any field，requires more than talent.The relationships you create with people and habits you develop also play a role in your ability to grow your career.But，ultimately，working hard is the main factor as to how far you can go.（1）The writer uses the example of Mozart to tell us that .A．natural ability can help speed up successB．being famous should be as early as possibleC．talent can take the place of effort completelyD．everyone is born to be good at something（2）What is Paragraph 3 mainly about？A．The result of an art competition.B．The achievements of famous talents.C．The problems of overvaluing innate abilities.D．The process of producing great works by talents.（3）What can we learn from the passage？A．Hard work helps people find out their natural abilities easily.B．Almost every great achievement requires a certain amount of effort.C．Relationships with people and habits are more important than talent.D．Talented people are more likely to succeed than hardworking people.（4）The writer probably agrees that .A．hard work brings people more success than talent doesB．talent gives people a head start in achievement s in any fieldC．having talent is not enough to ensure success unless talent is improvedD．hard work is no more necessary unless it is done by people successfully四．书面表达（共1小题）18．某英文网站青少年板块正在开展以"学会和父母相处"为主题的征文活动。

"We decide what kind of content we want to experience and choose how we experience it,"wrote Masback.It is believed that Generation Z is the generation that is going to shape our future,which is why policy makers, sociologists and company leaders are trying their best to understand these young people.11．A person who is called Generation Z______.A．was born in1990or later B．created high technologyC．grew up in the internet era D．changed the society greatly12．What can we infer from paragraph2?______A．Gen Z-ers are proud of being the first true digital natives very much.B．Gen Z-ers have no interest in the information they get from the internet.C．It's impossible for Gen Z-ers to do more than one thing at the same time.D．Social media has changed the way Gen Z-ers understand information.13．According to Masback,why are Gen Z-ers culture creators?______A．They have the courage to fight against traditional culture.B．They enjoy sharing their own experiences on social media.C．They get many different ideas from videos and news online.D．Their parents give them more freedom to express themselves.14．Which of the following best describes the author's attitude towards Gen Z-ers?______ A．Confident.B．Wait-and-see.C．Sympathetic.D．Worried.15．Where can we possibly read this article?______A．In business newspapers.B．On digital reports.C．On culture magazines.D．On job advertisements.阅读理解In a digital age,we almost never write things by hand.However,new brain research,led by researchers at the Norwegian University of Science and Technology,confirms handwriting has many benefits.It results in better learning and memory over using a keyboard.The study was conducted using equipment to track and record brain wave activity.The participants included 12young adults and12children.Each was asked to write by hand and type on a keyboard while wearing a hood （风帽）with over250electrodes（电极）.The sensors（传感器）in the electrodes are very sensitive and pick up the electrical activity that takes place in the brain.Each person took turns to have a45-minute examination.The results showed that the brain in both young adults and children is much more active when writing by hand than when typing on a keyboard.According to Van der Meer,plenty of senses are activated by pressing a pen on paper.These sense experiences build contact between different parts of the brain,opening the brain up for learning.Van der Meer believes that the results stress the importance of children being challenged to draw and write at an early age,especially at school."Learning to write by hand is a bit slower process,but it's important for children to go through the tiring phase of learning to write by hand.Writing by handrequires control of your fine motor skills（精细动作）and senses.It's important to put the brain in a learning state as often as possible,"Van der Meer added.16．What does the underlined word"It"in paragraph1refer to?______A．Learning.B．Memorizing C．Typing.D．Handwriting. 17．What do we know about the study?______A．The study involved24children in altogether.B．All the participants were divided into two groups.C．Sensors were used to record brain wave activity.D．Participants took examinations at the same time.18．Why does the brain become more active when writing by hand?______A．Writing by hand is easier to make the brain work.B．Hearing the sound made by writing takes much brain.C．Seeing letters while writing attracts more attention.D．Plenty of senses are activated to open the brain up.19．How does handwriting help people according to Van der Meer?______A．It makes people become smarter.B．It improves people's motor skills.C．It helps people get more patience.D．It arouses people's interest in learning.20．Why did the author write this article?______A．To present a new research on handwriting.B．To tell people the history of handwriting.C．To show the importance of writing by hand.D．To teach people how to improve handwriting.阅读理解Maddie Camargo and her mother,Stephanic Dufour,thought the screams for help were just Boy Scouts（童子军）messing around（瞎闹）.But then they saw the scene：scouts surrounded a hiker who had taken a scary six-meter drop in an area near the Hoover Dam,a fall that had left his right arm with a bone sticking out.The mother and daughter were supposed to be having a fun-filled weekend to celebrate Camargo's17th birthday.But the kayaking（划独木舟）trip turned into an emergency life-saving adventure.They pulled onto some sand.The boy scouts,who had called911,had tied a loose bandage（绑带）around the hiker's broken arm to stop the bleeding.Camargo knew another bandage was needed and thought back to her lifeguard training.She asked if anyone had a pen or a stick,and someone picked up a branch.She turned the bandage,careful not to hit the bone,until it stopped most of the bleeding.The girl grew up doing junior guards and had recently taken a CPR（cardiopulmonary resuscitation,心肺复苏）and first-aid class as part of her training to become a lifeguard."This is something she will never forget,"said her mom,Stephanie Dufour."She now really likes the emergency medical field and has been considering her college and future career choices."It's not the first time Camargo has quickly jumped into action when needed.In2015,during the Surf City Marathon,she was near a man who dropped at mile26.She pulled him out of the road and treated him for shock until doctors arrived.She was just15."I felt accomplished,like I actually did something to help someone,and my studies weren't just going to waste, "she said.21．What happened to the hiker?______A．He screamed loudly for messing around.B．He played with scouts near the Hoover Dam.C．He broke his right arm seriously in a fall.D．He scared scouts from a height of6meters.22．What did Camargo and her mother do after seeing the hiker?______A．They had a walk on the sand near the river.B．They continued enjoying the kayaking trip.C．They planned a birthday party on the sand.D．They stopped and began to save the hiker.23．Why did Camargo need a pen or a stick?______A．To replace another loose bandage.B．To help stop most of the bleeding.C．To make an emergency rescue sign.D．To show her life-saving knowledge.24．What do we know about Maddie Camargo?______A．She attended a lot of professional training to become a lifeguard.B．Her mom asked her to consider emergency medical field as career.C．It was her first time to use what she learned to help those in need.D．She will never forget the difficulties in learning life-saving skills.25．Which of the following would be a good title for this article?______A．Learning Skills for a Job B．No Wasting StudiesC．Using Skills to Do Good D．Training to be Skilled阅卷人三、信息匹配（本大题共10小题,共10.0分）得分任务型阅读Climate change

Not only are they good for the planet,but they're also good for your health.Depending on the weather,you may enjoy this new trip mode even more than sitting in traffic.28．Though it may seem unimportant in the whole wide world,your shopping habits can actually influence our environment.By selling and buying gently used clothes online,more resources（资源）will be saved.Some studies have shown that online shopping is better for the environment.29．.Change your dietWhat we eat can have a great effect on the environment.30．.They also create a lot of methane（甲烷）,a greenhouse gas.Additionally,food shipped from overseas uses a lot more resources than local produce.By eating fewer animal products,especially red meat and shopping for locally-grown food,you can make a big difference.The Earth is a fine place and worth fighting for.Do something every day that will improve your surroundings to make the planet a better place to live in.A.Make travelling carbon-cleverB.Reuse and recycle your clothingC.It's important to form good eating habitsD.Let's take a look at what steps you can takeE.For example,meat and dairy products require a lot of land to produceF.Because it takes about30%less resources to sell products than offline以下材料A～F分别介绍了六个不同的深圳踏青好去处。

It takes hard work from generation（一代人）to generation. But how about destroying it? A new report from The Guardian said long time of climate change can do that.Tuvalu（图瓦卢）is a Pacific island nation with nine islands and 12,000 people. It has long been at risk from rising sea levels. Now, 40 percent of the area in its capital is underwater at high tide（高潮）. By the end of the century, it is believed that all the islands will be underwater. So many people in Tuvalu have often moved around the country and even to other countries.To help with the problem, the country plans to build its country in the metaverse（元宇宙）. The digital （数字化的）country will recreate the same landscape and keep its cultural and historical records. No matter where they live in the real world, the people in this country will have the identity（身份）and “live” in its online coummunities. The government hopes to manage and serve them online.This news made many people in Tuvalu excited. But Li Zuxi, director of the metaverse lab of Qingbo Intelligent Technology, said it may not be the best solution. “Though the digital nation belongs to Tuvalu, it’s still built on a metaverse platform. Now the metaverse is not mature（成熟的）, which may bring some problems.” He gave us an example. If people from other countries enter the space of the digital country but just show their names, how do people know if they do or do not truly belong to that country? Li added that instead of trying our best to build digital nations, it’s better to pay attention to saving the real world now.5.What problem does Tuvalu face now?A.a smaller populationB.rising sea levelsC.climate changesD.less living space6.To solve the problem, Tuvalu plans to _________.A.move its people to other countriesB.set up its online communitiesC.build an underwater countryD.deal with the climate problem7.What is Li Zuxi’s opinion about the news from Tuvalu?A.The future of Tuvalu’s solution is bright.B.The metaverse platform where Tuvalu will be built on is perfect.C.Saving the real world is more important than planning for the future.D.He calls for more countries to build their digital nations.8.In Which part of the magazine can we read the text?A.TravelB. TechnologyC.CultureD.ArtC①As the days get colder, the flu season comes. The sneezes（喷嚏）from people who have a cold sometimes smell unpleasant. Where does the smell come from?①In fact, the thing we sneeze out is mostly our saliva（口水）. Saliva is 99.5 percent water and 0.5 percent other things like protein and minerals. When some bacteria（细菌）come into your mouth, they break down some protein in your saliva. This process sometimes produces gases like VSCs （挥发性硫化物）—a group of unpleasant gases. Narmally, they stay in the saliva. But when we sneeze out saliva, the water evaporates quickly in tehe air, letting out the gases and settin free bad smells.①Moreover, when we sneeze, it’s not only saliva that comes out but also some things in the nose and throat. For those who have a cold, there are probably snot and sputun filled with bacteria in their noses and throats. Pushed by the air pressure from sneezing, they may get out together with saliva, providing a mix of different bad smells. That’s why you can smell more unpleasant sneezes in the classroomduring the flu season.①Researchers have found that different smells of sneezes have different causes. Diabetes（糖尿病）might lead to sweet-smelling sneezes. And teech illnesses are likely to cause sour smells. Serious diseases that include liver（肝）and kidney（肾）problems may cause sneezes to smell really bad, like a toilet.①Does this worry you? A smelly sneeze every now and then is common. But if your sneezes smell bad for a long time, it’s time to go to a doctor.9.The sneezes from people who have a cold sometimes smell unpleasant because________.A.they sneeze out more salivaB.more protein is contained in their salivaC.there are bacteria in their mouthD.gases like VSCs produced in their mouth smell bad10.What does the unlined word “they” refer to in the third paragraph?A.The sneezes people sneeze outB.Snot and sputum with bacteriaC.The VSCs freed out in the airD.The saliva that comes out of the mouth11.The following are the matches of sneeze smell and its disease EXCEPT________.A.sweet-smelling sneeze—diabetesB.sour sneeze—teeth illnessC.smelly sneeze—nose infectionsD.soilet-smelling sneeze—stomach problem12.What is the structure of the text?A.①|①①①|①B.①①①①|①C.①|①①①①D.①|①|①①|①DHave you bought anything that you can’t touch or see? Nowadays, virtual products have become a rising trend（潮流）on Taobao.On June 9, the topic of “Have you bought virtual mosquitoes（蚊子）for your friends” started a discussion on Weibo. If you buy virtual mosquitoes for your friends, someone will add your friend on WeChat and buzz to them by word simply for fun.This is just one of the examples of virtual products. There is also a “virtual tree hole”. This means that you can pay for someone who listens to you to talk about your life. “Virtual supervision（监督）” is when you need someone to keep an eye on you if you can’t study or read carefully. The price is usually from 10 yuan to several hundred yuan, depending on different needs.Under the increasing pressure of working, studying and relationships, more people want to find ways to lower their stress and keep themselves happy. “Some secrets can’t be shared with family and friends. Talking to strangers is a better way for me,” Yu Xiaoyu, 30, who has bought a “virtual tree hole” said. “Also, strangers are more objective（客观的）to look at my problems.” It’s also less trouble for family and friends because they are also busy, Yu added.However, the experience isn’t always good. Y u met a “tree hole” that didn’t pay much attention to her problem. “It’s a matter of luck,” Yu said. “Sometimes you happen to talk to someone who are really patient and even professional. Sometimes you meet someone who ends upmaking you feel even worse.”Buying virtual products shows young people’s emotional（情感的）needs. However, there is also a risk that they may trust strangers more when they are down. It’s still important to think about how safe this vitual service is, especially when it asks for more money.13.What do people buy virtual mosquitoes for?A.They want to discuss with their friends through the virtual mosquitoes.B.They want the virtual mosquitoes to accompany their friends.C.They do that just for fun by buzzing to them.D.It is a trend and they do that just to follow the trend.14.What can we learn from Yu’s experience?A.You can always get what you want.B.Anyone can provide virtual services.C.Family and friends are more objective.D.Virtual products are not always satisfying.15.What might be the writer’s idea about virtual products?A.Virtual products will become a trend in the future.B.It’s necessary for more people to buy them to lower their stress.C.It’s worth buying them no matter how expensive they are.D.Each coin has two sides, so enjoy them but pay attention to them.16.What can be the best title for the text?A.People’s new needsB.Gifts that can’t be touched.C.Ways to relax.D.The popularity of virtual services第二节阅读短文，从方框内所给的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项，其中有一个多余的选项。
