背景导学
One morning more than thirty years ago, I entered the Track Kitchen, a restaurant where everyone from the humblest(最卑微的)to the most powerful came for breakfast. I noticed an empty chair next to an elderly, unshaven man, who looked somewhat disheveled. He was wearing a worn-out hat and was alone. I asked if I might join him. He agreed quietly and I sat down to have my breakfast.
We cautiously began a conversation and spoke about a wide range of things. We never introduced ourselves. I was concerned
that he might have no money and not be able to afford something to eat. So as I rose to go back to the counter for a second cup of coffee, I asked, “My I get you something ”
“A coffee would be nice.”
Then I bought him a cup of coffee. We talked more, and he accepted another cup of coffee. Finally, I rose to leave, wished him well, and headed for the exit. At the door I met one of my friends. He asked, “How did you get to know Mr. Galbreath ”
“Who ”
“The man you were sitting with. He is the Chairman of the Board of Churchill Downs.”I could hardly believe it. I was buying, offering a free breakfast, and feeling pity for one of the world’s richest and most powerful men!
My few minutes with Mr. Galbreath changed my life. Now I try to treat everyone with respect, no matter who I think they are, and no matter whether they are kind and sincere or not.

Ⅰ. 阅读理解
A
I start every summer with the best of intentions: to attack one big book from the past, a classic that I was supposed to have read when young and ambitious. Often the pairings of books and settings have been purely accidental: “Moby Dick” on a three-day cross-country train trip; “The Magic Mountain” in a New England
beachside cottage with no locks on the doors, no telephones or televisions in the rooms, and little to do beyond a row on the salt pond. Attempting “The Man Without Qualities” on a return to Hawaii, my native state, however, was less fruitful: I made it through one and a quarter volumes (册), then decided that I’d got the point and went swimming instead.
But this summer I find myself at a loss. I’m not quite interested in Balzac, or “Tristram Shandy”. There’s always
“War and Peace”, which I’ve covered some distance several times, only to get bogged down in the “War” part, set it aside for a while, and realize that I have to start over from the beginning again, having forgotten everyone’s name and social rank. How appealing to simply fall back on a favorite-once more into “The Waves” or “Justine”, which feels almost like cheating, too exciting and too much fun to properly belong in serious literature.
And then there’s Stendhal’s “The Red and the Black”, which
happens to be the name of my favorite cocktail (鸡尾酒)of the summer, created by Michael Cecconi at Savoy and Back Forty. It is easy to drink, and knocking back three or four seems like such a delightful idea. Cecconi’s theory: “I take whatever’s fresh at the green market and turn it into liquid.” The result is a pure shot of afternoon in the park, making one feel cheerful and peaceful all at once, lying on uncut grass with eyes shut, sun beating through the lids.
1. What can we infer about the author from the first paragraph ( )
A. He has a cottage in New England.
B. He shows talents for literature.
C. He enjoys reading when traveling.
D. He admires a lot of great writers.
C
[解析] [语篇解读] 本文是一篇记叙文。作者喜欢在暑期读书,并和我们分享了自己读书的体会。
【命题立意】推理判断题。【解题思路】根据第一段中的“Moby Dick” on a three-day cross-country train trip;“The Magic Mountain” in a New England beachside cottage... “The Man Without Qualities”on a return to Hawaii等内容可知,作者在旅行中喜欢读名著,故选C。
2. What do the underlined words “get bogged down” in Paragraph 2 mean ( )
A. Get confused. B. Be carried away.
C. Be interrupted. D. Make no progress.
D
[解析] 【命题立意】词义猜测题。【解题思路】根据句中的covered some distance several times和set it aside for a while及读后的结果having forgotten everyone’s name and social rank可知,作者在读“战争”部分时几次合上书,把书放一边。由此可知, 句中画线的“get bogged down”指的是陷入困境,停滞不前,没有进展。这与Make no progress同义,故选D。
3. What can be a suitable title for the text ( )
A. The Books of Summer B. My Summer Holidays
C. To Read or Not to Read D. It’s Never Too Late to Read
A
[解析] 【命题立意】主旨大意题。【解题思路】在第一段开头,作者就点明every summer,谈到了每年暑假旅行时喜欢读名著;在第二段中But this summer I find myself at a loss. 谈到今年夏天读书的困惑;在第三段中my favorite cocktail (鸡尾酒)of the summer再次把读书和鸡尾酒联系,谈自己读书的感受。所以全文都和夏天读书有关,The Books of Summer适合作为标题,故选A。
It’s a common belief that the roles actors play might somehow reflect their true personalities. It’s usually not true, but British actress Phoebe Waller-Bridge is an exception.
Just like Fleabag, the character she played in the comedy-drama series of the same name, Waller-Bridge feels that her life is a mess. “It’s just really wonderful to know that a dirty and messed up woman can make it to the Emmys,” she said. She may be “messed up”, but Variety magazine calls her an “all-around icon”.
B
[2020福建师范大学附中期末]
Last year, Waller-Bridge took home three Emmy awards for her work on Fleabag-best writing in a comedy series, best lead actress, and best comedy series.
Her success is partly because of her family. Waller-Bridge was brought up in a free environment. Her mother always told her, “You can be whatever you want if you imagine it.” So Waller-Bridge broke all the rules about what a “good” girl should do. “Our laws and moral codes don’t apply-she lives without fear of consequence,” The Sun noted.
That fearlessness extends to being authentic (真实的) in her writing and acting. Unlike the can-do heroines and strong, successful women in many TV dramas, Waller-Bridge shows a flawed but real character. Fleabag was a screw-up who always found a way to say or do the wrong thing. “It resonated with the lives of stressed-out women everywhere in reality-doing their best to find balance in their lives,” a viewer wrote on the US movie website.
Villanelle in Killing Eve, another hit TV series developed by Waller-Bridge, was a little bit violent but showed no interest in the rules others created, which made many people see themselves in her.
“People have been scared to write characters like these. But I think, now, women are so relieved to have this new template (样板). And, aren’t we all a bit of everything ” Waller-Bridge said in an interview with Indian Express.
With such courage and sincerity, Waller-Bridge is, without doubt, a“golden girl” in Hollywood, Australian news website The New Daily commented.
4. What is the article mainly about ( )
A. What helped Waller-Bridge succeed in comedy.
B. The popularity of the comedy-drama series Fleabag.
C. What inspired Waller-Bridge to take up writing and acting.
D. The similarities between Phoebe Waller-Bridge and the character she played in Fleabag.
A
[解析] [语篇解读] 本文为一篇记叙文,叙述了喜剧演员菲比·沃勒-布里奇因其真诚的个性特点在喜剧上获得了成功,说明了勇于表达真实的自己更让人们欣赏。
【命题立意】主旨大意题。【解题思路】本文叙述了喜剧演员菲比·沃勒-布里奇因其真诚的个性特点在喜剧上获得了成功,选项A“什么帮助沃勒-布里奇在喜剧中获得成功”符合文章大意。故选A。
5. How did Waller-Bridge’s parents influence her growth ( )
A. They pushed her to follow social codes.
B. They constantly encouraged her to be herself.
C. They always reminded her to be curious and fearless.
D. They taught her to write and act when she was young.
B
[解析] 【命题立意】细节理解题。【解题思路】根据第四段第三、四句“Her mother always told her,‘You can be whatever you want if you imagine it.’So Waller-Bridge broke all the rules about what a‘good’girl should do.”可知,她的父母不断鼓励她做自己。故选B。
6. What does the underlined phrase “resonated with” in Paragraph 5 probably mean ( )
A. Messed up. B. Paid attention to.
C. Had great effects on. D. Was in agreement with.
D
[解析] 【命题立意】词义猜测题。【解题思路】根据画线短语前的“Fleabag was a screw-up who always found a way to say or do the wrong thing.”可知,沃勒-布里奇在剧中表演的角色总是说错话或做错事。结合下文“the lives of stressed-out women everywhere in reality-doing their best
to find balance in their lives”可知,生活中压力大的女性在平衡她们的生活时,也总是会犯错。由此推知“resonated with”与“was in agreement with”有相近含义,可解释为“产生共鸣”。故选D。
7. What do Villanelle in Killing Eve and Fleabag in Fleabag have in common ( )
A. Both are courageous and organized.
B. Both are much alike in character.
C. Both successfully find balance in their lives.
D. Both are rebellious but strong and successful.
B
[解析] 【命题立意】推理判断题。【解题思路】根据倒数第三段内容可知,Villanelle有点暴力,对其他人创造的规则毫无兴趣;结合倒数第四段第三
句“Fleabag was a screw-up who always found a way to say or do the wrong thing.”可知,Fleabag是个总弄糟事情的人。由此推知,两者的性格都有缺陷,有相似之处。故选B。

to be completed
[解析] 考查非谓语动词。句意:该系统由中国紧急事务部长监管,计划于不久的将来完工。根据短语be set to do sth.“安排做某事,计划做某事”可知,此处应用不定式,逻辑主语system和动词complete之间为被动关系,故填不定式的被动形式。故填to be completed。

The novel The Million Pound Bank Note was written by Mark Twain. Humorously, Mark Twain successfully described a sarcastic adventure of Henry Adams.
Two rich men have a bet on Henry to see what will happen to Henry with a million-pound bank note which can’t be cashed. A month later, he becomes a millionaire dramatically and even wins the love of a pretty lady.
What impresses me most is that it is maybe not Henry, but people’s crazy love for money, that fools the world.(共105张PPT)

Ⅰ. 课文翻译
教材原文 The Hunchback of Notre-Dame Published in 1831, The Hunchback of Notre-Dame tells a tragic story of events in Paris. Esmeralda’s beauty means that many men fall in love with her. One such man sends the hunchback Quasimodo to kidnap Esmeralda. 教材译文
《巴黎圣母院》
《巴黎圣母院》出版于1831年, 讲述了一个发生在巴黎的悲惨故事。埃斯梅拉达的美丽意味着许多男人会爱上她。一个爱慕她的人派驼背的卡西莫多去绑架埃斯梅拉达。
But Quasimodo fails and is captured and tortured in public. Esmeralda hears his call for water, and steps forwards out of mercy. She offers Quasimodo a drink of water, which saves him and also captures his heart. When Esmeralda is later sentenced to death for a crime she did not commit, Quasimodo rescues her from an angry crowd outside the Notre-Dame Cathedral. Esmeralda is safe from execution as long as she stays inside the cathedral... 但卡西莫多失败了, 并在公共场合被抓获和折磨。埃斯梅拉达听到了他要水喝的声音,出于怜悯, 她向前走去。她给了卡西莫多一杯水, 这拯救了他, 也俘获了他的心。当埃斯梅拉达后来因莫须有的罪名被判死刑时, 卡西莫多从巴黎圣母院外愤怒的人群中救出了她。只要埃斯梅拉达待在大教堂里, 她就不会被处决……
续表
Esmeralda and Quasimodo were still for several moments, as they considered their predicament in silence, she so graceful, he so repulsive. Every moment Esmeralda discovered some fresh defect in Quasimodo, as her glance travelled from his knock knees to his hunched back, from his hunched back to his single eye. How anyone could be formed in such a way was beyond her comprehension. 埃斯梅拉达和卡西莫多一动不动了好一会儿, 沉默地思考着他们的处境, 她是那么优雅, 他是那么令人厌恶。埃斯梅拉达每时每刻都在卡西莫多身上发现一些新的缺陷, 她的目光从他的弯腿到他的驼背, 从他的驼背到他的独眼。她无法理解怎么会有人会长成这样。
续表
Yet there was so much melancholy and so much gentleness spread over all this that she gradually adjusted to it. He was the first to break the silence. “So you were telling me to return ” She moved her head, and said, “Yes.” He understood the motion of the head. “But!” he said, as though hesitating whether to finish, “I am-I am deaf.” 然而, 这一切都弥漫着那么多的忧郁和那么多的温柔, 使她逐渐适应了。
他是第一个打破沉默的人。“这么说, 你是要我回去 ”
她点了点头, 说:“是的。”
他明白了她点头的动作。“可是,”他说,好像在犹豫要不要讲完,“我——我耳聋。”
续表
“Poor wretch!” exclaimed Esmeralda, with an expression of heartfelt compassion. He began to smile sadly. “You suppose that was all that I was missing, do you not Yes, I am deaf, that is the way I am made. It is horrible, is it not, next to your exquisite beauty!” There lay in the accents of the unfortunate man so significant an awareness of his sadness that she had not the strength to utter a syllable. “可怜的人!”埃斯梅拉达带着一种由衷的同情叫道。
他苦笑起来。
“你以为那是我所有的缺陷吗 是的, 我是失聪的, 我就是这样被创造出来的。和你的娇美相比, 这真是可怕, 不是吗 ”
从那不幸的人的声调里, 可以很明显地听出他是多么难过,以至于她连一个字也说不出来。
续表
In any case, he would not have heard her. He continued: “Never have I viewed my ugliness as at the present moment. When I compare myself to you, I feel an immense pity for myself, poor unfortunate monster that I am! Be honest, to you I must resemble some savage creature. You, you are a ray of sunshine, a drop of dew, a birdsong, whilst I am something terrible, neither human nor beast. 无论如何, 他不会听到她的话。他继续说:
“我从来没有发现自己像现在这样丑陋。当我把我自己和你比较的时候, 我非常可怜我自己, 我是多么不幸的一个怪物啊! 老实说, 对你来说, 我一定像个野蛮的人。你, 你是一缕阳光, 一滴露珠, 一声鸟鸣, 而我是一个可怕的东西, 既不是人也不是兽。

I don’t know what I am, as I am coarser, more downtrodden, and plainer than a pebble!” Then he began to laugh, and that laugh was the most heartbreaking sound in the world. He continued: “Yes, I am deaf, but you shall talk to me with your hands as my master talks to me, and then I shall quickly know your wishes from the movement of your lips, from your expression.” 我不知道我是什么, 因为我比一块鹅卵石更粗糙, 更遭人践踏, 更丑陋!”
然后他开始笑了, 那笑声是世界上最令人心碎的声音。他继续说:
“是的, 我是失聪的, 但你要像我的主人对我说话那样, 用手和我说话, 然后我就能从你嘴唇的动作和表情上很快地了解你的意思。”

“Well!” she smiled, “Explain to me why you rescued me.” He watched her intently while she was speaking. “I understand,” he replied. “You ask me why I rescued you. You have forgotten an unfortunate person who attempted to kidnap you one night, this same person to whom you showed kindness when he was being punished. A drop of water and a little pity-that is more than I can repay with my life. “好吧!”她笑着说,“告诉我你为什么救我。”
她说话时他目不转睛地看着她。
“我明白了,”他回答。“你问我为什么救你。你忘记了有一天晚上一个不幸的人企图绑架你, 你却在他被惩罚时对他仁慈。一滴水加上一点怜悯——这是我用生命所无法偿还的。

You have forgotten that unfortunate soul, but he remembers it.” She listened to him with profound tenderness. A tear swam in the eye of Quasimodo, but did not fall. He seemed to make it a point of honour to keep it at bay. (Adaptation from The Hunchback of Notre-Dame by Victor Hugo) 你已经忘记了那个不幸的人, 可是他还记得。”
她怀着深切的柔情听他说话。一滴眼泪在卡西莫多的眼里打转, 但没有掉下来。似乎不让眼泪落下来他就可以维护自己的尊严。

【教材原文】
The Picture of Dorian Gray
This book by Oscar Wilde tells the story of Dorian Gray, a very handsome young man who spends his life only concerned with his own pleasure, regardless of the suffering he brings to others.
The story starts with young Dorian having his portrait painted. His friend Lord Wotton talks about beauty and pleasure being the only important things in life.
Fascinated by his words, Dorian wishes he could remain young and good-looking always, with his portrait growing old instead of him.
Soon afterwards, Dorian is surprised to find his wish has come true, after he meets Sybil, an innocent actress who falls in love with him. Dorian heartlessly abandons her just because she performs poorly one night. When he learns that Sybil has killed herself, Dorian finds his face in the painting has taken on a cruel look.
He hides the painting away so that no one else may see it. For the next 18 years, Dorian engages in various evil deeds. His portrait ages and reveals his inner ugliness. One day, he suddenly comes to be fearful of his past crimes and wants to start a new life. But his portrait remains the same and reminds him of everything he has done. Feeling desperate, he tries to destroy the portrait with a knife, but it is he who is killed. His body is discovered, old and awful, while his portrait is young and handsome once again.
In the story, what matters most to Dorian Gray is that he is good-looking, not that he has a good heart. He sacrifices his true self in pursuit of physical beauty and pleasure, which leads to his destruction in the end.

高分范文 My favourite novel is The Adventures of Huckleberry Finn written by Mark Twain, one of the greatest American novelists.This novel tells the story of Huckleberry, who is a white boy with big eyes. He has a casual manner and doesn’t like to be neat. No one cares about him, but he is very kind and always ready to help others. One great thing he does is that he helps the black slave Jim escape in secret. They meet various people and many difficulties on their way, but in the end they make it.In the

[2020安徽合肥六校高一上学期期末]
There was a man playing the piano in a bar. He was a good piano player and always performed in this bar. People came in just to hear him play. But one night, a customer told him that he didn’t want to hear him just
play the piano any more. He wanted him to sing a song.
The man said, “I don’t sing.”
But the customer was persistent (执着的). He told the bar manager, “I’m tired of listening to the piano. I want that man to sing!”
The manager shouted across the room, “If you want to get paid, sing a song. Our customer is asking you to sing!”So he did. He sang a song. A piano player who had never sung in public did so for the first time. And everyone was surprised by his song Mona Lisa. He got lots of applause(掌声) that night.
He had such a talent for singing, but he just had been sitting on his talent for the past years! If without such a chance, he may have lived the rest of his life as a no-name piano player in a no-name bar. However, now he has become one of the best-known singers in America.
You, too, have skills and abilities. Maybe your “talent” is not as great as the singer above, but it may be better than you think! And with effort, most skills can be improved. So, in your life, you should be brave enough to try doing different things and find out what talents you really have!
1. Why did the man start to sing ( )
A. Because he wanted to make more money.
B. Because the bar manager said he liked his song.
C. Because he wanted to show everyone that he had a talent for singing.
D. Because the manager asked him to sing at the request of a customer.

Maybe I’m the rude one for not appreciating life’s little courtesies(礼节). But many social norms(规范) just don’t make sense to people drowning in digital communication.
D
Take the thank-you note. Daniel Post Senning, a coauthor of Emily Post’s Etiquette, asked, “At what point does showing appreciation outweigh the cost ”
2._______ Think of how long it takes to listen to one of those messages. In texts, you don’t have to declare who you are or even say hello. E-mail, too, is slower than a text. The worst are those who leave a voice mail and then send an e-mail message to tell you they left a voice mail.
A
This isn’t the first time technology has changed our manners. 3.______ Alexander Graham Bell, the inventor, suggested that people say, “Ahoy!”Finally, hello won out, and the victory sped up the greeting’s use in face-to-face communications.
In the age of the smart phone, there is no reason to ask once-acceptable questions about: the weather forecast, a business’s phone number, or directions to a house, a restaurant, or an office, which can be easily found on a digital map. 4.______ And when you answer, they respond with a thank-you e-mail.

How to handle these differing standards Easy: Consider your audience.

B. Others, like me, want no reply.
C. But people still ask these things.
D. Don’t these people realize that they’re wasting your time

A funny thing happened to Arthur when he was on the way to work one day. As he walked along Park Avenue near the First National Bank, he heard the sound of someone trying to start a car. He tried again and again but couldn’t get the car moving. Arthur turned and looked inside at the face of a young man who looked worried. Arthur stopped and said, “It looks like you’ve got a problem.”
“I’m afraid so. I’m in a big hurry and I can’t start my car.”
“Is there something I can do to help ” Arthur asked. The young man looked at the two suitcases in the back seat and then said, “Thanks. If you’re sure it wouldn’t be too much trouble, you could help me get these suitcases into a taxi.”
“No trouble at all. I’d be glad to help.”
The young man got out and took one of the suitcases from the back seat. After placing it on the ground, he turned to get the
other one. Just as Arthur picked up the first suitcase and started walking, he heard the long loud noise of an alarm.
It was from the bank. There had been a robbery (抢劫)!
Park Avenue had been quiet a moment before. Now the air was filled with the sound of the alarm and the shouts of people running from all directions. Cars stopped and the passengers joined the crowd in front of the bank. People asked each other, “What happened ” But everyone had a different answer.
Arthur, still carrying the suitcase, turned to look at the bank and walked right into the young woman in front of him.
She looked at the suitcase and then at him. Arthur was surprised. “Why is she looking at me like that ” he thought. “The suitcase! She thinks I’m the bank thief!”
Arthur looked around at the crowd of people. He became frightened, and without another thought, he started to run.
注意:续写词数应为150左右。
As he was running, Arthur heard the young man shouting behind, “Stop,stop!”____________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Arthur immediately realized that the young man was the bank robber. So Arthur didn’t stop, but continued to run until he saw and caught a taxi in front of him. He quickly put the suitcase in the car and said to the driver, “Please hurry to the police station. I have a case to report to the police. The man shouting behind is the bank thief!”The taxi raced away to the police station like an arrow.
The taxi stopped in front of the police station._____________
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Arthur said to the police who had been waiting and who had already received the robbery report, “This suitcase is that of the bank robber. It may be filled with the money stolen from the bank. I hand it to you. Please get ready to arrest the man.”(共81张PPT)

1. _________
wisely
[解析] [语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。年轻人在成长的过程中, 经常会遇见麻烦。作者在文章中提出了四条帮助年轻人处理生活中麻烦事的建议。
考查副词。根据and前面的correctly可知, 此处是副词作状语, 修饰get rid of。
2. ________
about
[解析] 考查固定搭配。be upset about意为“对……感到心烦”。
3. _______
that
[解析] 考查强调句型。强调句型的基本结构是“It is/was+被强调部分+that/who+其他部分”, 本句强调one’s inner beauty, 所以要填that。
4. ________________
misunderstood
[解析] 考查被动语态。分析语境可知, 设空处表示“误解”, 应用misunderstand。本句主语we与动词misunderstand构成被动关系, 要用过去分词与前面的be构成被动语态。所以要填misunderstood。
5. ________
Faced
[解析] 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知, 此处用非谓语动词作状语。be faced with…表示“面对……”。所以要填Faced。
6. ____
a
[解析] 考查冠词。a proper time意为“一个合适的时间”。所以要填a。
7. _________
trying
[解析] 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构可知, 此处用非谓语动词作状语。本句主语we与动词try构成主动关系, 现在分词在句中作状语。所以要填trying。
8. ________
which
[解析] 考查定语从句。关系代词which指代前面的主句, 引导非限制性定语从句并在从句中作主语。
9. ________________
determination
[解析] 考查名词。介词of后面通常接名词或代词作宾语, 句中要用determine的名词形式作宾语, 所以要填determination。
10. ________
As/So
[解析] 考查固定搭配。so/as long as意为“只要”, 引导条件状语从句。所以要填As/So。

[2019浙江] Money with no strings attached. It’s not something you see every day. But at Union Station in Los Angeles last month, a board went up with dollar bills attached to it with pins and a sign that read, “Give What You Can, Take What You Need.”
People quickly caught on. And while many took dollars, many others pinned their own cash to the board. “People of all ages, races, and socio-economic(社会经济的)backgrounds gave and took,”
said Tyler Bridges of The Toolbox, which created the project. “We even had a bride in her wedding dress come up to the board and take a few dollars.”Most of the bills on the board were singles, but a few people left fives, tens and even twenties. The video clip(片段) shows one man who had found a $20 bill pinning it to the board.
“What I can say for the folks that gave the most, is that they were full of smiles,”Bridges said.“There’s a certain feeling that giving can do for you and that was apparent in those
that gave the most.”Most people who took dollars took only a few, but Bridges said a very small number took as much as they could.
While the clip might look like part of a new ad campaign, Bridges said the only goal was to show generosity and sympathy. He added that he hopes people in other cities might try similar projects and post their own videos on the Internet.
“After all, everyone has bad days and good days,”he said. “Some days you need a helping hand and some days you can be the one giving the helping hand.”

教材原文 It’s all about ME! “Me”.It’s a small word with big meaning, and that meaning is as individual to each of us as the way we look.

一切都是关于“我”!
“我”。一个意义重大的小词,它的意义就像我们每个人的长相一样,因人而异。通过采访,我能够发现“我”对其他人意味着什么,以及他们如何学会欣赏自己的美。

所以,自从我发现自拍应用程序可以祛除我的雀斑,放大我的眼睛,甚至让我的下颌轮廓变瘦,我就上瘾了。我每天都要花几个小时编辑我的自拍照,并把它们发到网上,然后很多次急切地查看手机上的评论。每个“赞”都能增强我的自信心。

教材原文 Dad thinks I am a narcissist, but what I say is that my pictures aren’t hurting anyone, so who cares Dr Hart says: Obsessive online photo editing indicates a lack of self-confidence and a desire for attention. However, the image Jade presents to obtain the praise of others is false. People who pretend to be someone they are not tend to misjudge themselves. 教材译文
爸爸认为我是一个自我陶醉者,但我要说的是我的照片没有伤害任何人,所以谁会在乎呢?
哈特博士说:
过度的在线编辑照片表明缺乏自信和渴望被关注。然而,杰德为获得他人赞扬所展示的形象是虚假的。自认为是某个人而其实不是的人往往会误判自己。

我不喜欢被从头到脚地审视。但我很惊讶地看到我打扮后看起来是多么好看! 这是我平生第一次视自己为一个英俊、仪表堂堂的年轻人。在那一刻,我意识到外在美并不是毫无价值的。它可以是我们个性的一种表达,有助于我们给别人留下良好且积极的印象。

易混辨析
bother; disturb; interrupt
bother “打扰”“搅扰”,指使人受到烦扰或在精神上烦恼,尤指把某人弄得焦急不安、心烦意乱、心情不能平静,在句中多用于否定结构。
bother着重“打扰”行为的本身,而不指由此而产生的“烦躁”“不安”状态, 因此表达“感觉烦躁”这个意思时,不能说“I feel bothered.”而应说“I feel restless.”。
disturb “打扰;妨碍;扰乱”,侧重对某人动作或行为的干扰或干预,给别人带来较长时间的耽搁或使某人不能专注于某事。
interrupt “中断,打断”,主要指对别人谈话或某一活动的打扰,使对方或活动停下来或不能继续。

Ⅰ. 阅读理解
[2020西藏自治区林芝市第二高级中学高二月考] Many of us mistakenly believe that it’s wrong to think we have any good qualities. We may spend a lot of time blaming ourselves for our negative qualities, thinking that self-criticism is the key to improving our performance. However, a constant focus on our supposed shortcomings can stop our efforts to make friends with other people. How can we believe that
others could like us if we believe our inner being is flawed (有缺陷的)?
If someone seems to dislike you, the reason for that dislike might have little or nothing to do with you. The person who doesn’t like you might be fearful, or shallow, or busy or shy. Perhaps you and that person are simply a mismatch for each other at this particular time.
Don’t take yourself out of the game by deciding that your flaws
are bigger than your good qualities. In fact, some of the very qualities you consider to be flaws may be irresistible to someone else. For all the factors that might cause one person to reject you, there are at least many factors that will work in your favor when you are getting on with someone else.
You might be thirty pounds over your ideal weight, but you may have a wonderful laugh and real enthusiasm for life. There are many people who don’t mind your extra pounds. You may drive a shabby car,
but you might be a great dancer and a loyal friend. There are people out there looking for loyalty, or fun, or sweetness, or wisdom, so the package it comes in is not important. If you are worried that you are not beautiful enough to attract friends, keep in mind that not everyone is looking for physical beauty in their friends. You can decide to feel inferior (低等的) because you don’t have much money and you don’t drive a nice car. You can believe that this is the reason that you don’t have many friends in your life. On the
other hand, if you are very wealthy you may be suspicious about whether everyone is after your money and that nobody really likes you as a person.
The point is that you can focus on just about anything and believe it’s the reason you do not have friends and cannot make any.
D
