A
I think a close friend is someone you get on well with，who helps you when you have problems，who gives you advice，and who always has time for you.I didn't use to have many close friends when I was at school because I was very shy，but now I have several.They are all women.I think it's difficult to have a close friend of the opposite sex(异性).
—Marie
I think a close friend is someone who you've known for a long time，and who you still get on with.They have similar hobbies to you so you can do things together.I've got three close friends who I was at middle school with and we often go out together(without our parents of course).We often go camping，play football，or walk outside in the open air.
—David
I'm not sure how to answer the question because I don't really have any close friends.I know a lot of people but mainly through work，and the social occasions (场合)when we meet are business dinners，things like that.I think if you come from a really close family，friends are a bit unnecessary.I like spending my free time with my family.
—Richard
For me close friends are the people you spend your free time with.I go out at weekends with a group of people，and they are all my close friends.They're also people who live near me.I don't think you can have close friends at a distance because you need to be able to see each other often.But I don't think you need to be doing the same things.I mean I'm at school but none of my friends are.
—Anna

The Enzian Art House in Florida was showing movies in the park.One evening，a few weeks before Christmas，they showed The Christmas Story and had a raffle (抽奖)with a girl's bike as the prize.It was painfully cute with colored streamers (飘带)，flowers，butterflies，a nice bell，all designed to delight a five year old.But I，aged 50，got it!
This led to a bit of a puzzle as I didn't have children or grandchildren to give it to.
I wanted the bike to go to someone who didn't have the opportunity to own such a wonderful thing.I contacted the shelter ( where I occasionally volunteered in the kitchen )and while there was a big need for a sweet bike，there was also the potential for it creating conflict.
I looked elsewhere until I found out about a couple in our church who had been going through a hard time in their marriage because of drugs and alcohol.They walked to our church (they didn't have a car)from a parking lot a mile away and they had a sweet little five year old daughter.
On Christmas Eve I went to their parking lot.They had already left on foot to go to the candle lighting service.Their landlord was on the property and when he heard that I wanted to leave the bike anonymously，he offered to open up their trailer (活动房屋).There I saw a lonely tree，so I put the bike behind it.
It was a great moment for me and，I hope，a little bit of Christmas magic for the family and that little girl.

(2021·北师大附中高一月考)A while back I caught a news report on something called “couch surfing” and the network of trusting souls who make this phenomenon possible.They offer to put up travellers free of charge and help them on their ways.At first，it sounded unbelievable.I mean，inviting strangers into one's home for one or two nights？Give me a break.
However，I was intrigued．I decided to investigate.The only way to truly learn about this phenomenon was to dive in.So I planned a trip to Finland，a country I've always wanted to explore.I would couch surf at every stop there.
If ever any anxiety existed when stepping into the unknown，it disappeared when my first host met me at the train station.Ari looked like my idea of a typical Finn: tall and blue eyed.Finns were also supposed to be famously reserved (寡言少语的).Ari was anything but.He was a live wire，giving me an enthusiastic welcome and hiking with me to his apartment，where he showed me the sleeper sofa，served me tea，and engaged me in warm conversations.He also handed me a key to come and go as I pleased.
If this was what couch surfing was all about trust and friendship，then I had gotten off to a good start.As I boarded my next train to continue my journey，I began to think about this couch surfing idea.What urged these people to open their homes to strangers？I concluded that there was a desire to lend a hand to like minded folks who might enrich their own lives.
Seven cities in 14 days.Seven hosts.Seven new friends.If couch surfing taught me anything，it's this: Most people are good and generous.
Where will couch surfing take me next？Who knows？But I can't wait to find out.

(2021·辽宁六校协作体高一联考)Reality TV show has been charged with making the nation silly，but a study suggests part of the shows could be good for children.
Massey University PhD student Jacinta Hawkins looked at the influence of TV programs on kids' health knowledge，attitudes and behavior.She said programs which showed overweight people on TV are making children say “I don't want to grow up like that”．
The research was part of Ms Hawkins' paper on how schools improve health.She spoke to 92 children，aged from 7 to 13，from six Auckland primary schools to find out how they received information on nutrition and physical activity.Some said they learnt from TV news programs，but most of them mentioned reality shows such as Fat Chance，Honey We're Killing the Kids and Downsize Me.
“Earlier studies had looked at the effect junk food advertising had on children，”Ms Hawkins said，“but messages within TV programs had not been explored.Children from the six schools largely recognized program content，rather than advertising，as a source of food and physical activity messages.They are learning habits of eating and exercise from TV programs.”
The children also recognized that their parents had a role to play in shaping health behavior.Talking about Honey We're Killing the Kids, which shows how people will look if they continue with good habits，children said they developed attitudes from their family's habits.Ms Hawkins said children remembered what they had seen and thought it was the parents' duty to lead by example.

14．How did most students get information on health
A．From health experts. B．From news reports.
C．From television ads. D．From TV shows.
D [细节理解题。由第四段最后两句可知，这六所学校的孩子们大多认可电视节目内容，而不是广告，将电视节目作为食物和体育活动信息的来源。他们从电视节目中学习饮食和锻炼的习惯。所以大多数学生是通过电视节目获取关于健康方面的信息的。故选D项。]

Dear John，
I'm sorry to hear that you are lonely in this new school.Now I'd like to offer you some suggestions.
It's normal for you to feel lonely because you are living in an entirely new environment.In my opinion，you'd better take an active part in class and afterschool activities.What's more，don't hesitate to show people what you are really good at.It's easier to make friends when you have similar interests with others.To be frank，I'd like to be your friend.
I hope everything will be fine with you in the future.
Yours，

(2021·辽宁葫芦岛高一上期末)Robert and Henry were two friends in the same class.They always played together and went home together.One day，Robert and Henry were going home from school.On turning a corner，Robert cried out，“A fight！Let's go and see！”
“No.” said Henry.“Let us go home quietly and not meddle with (管闲事)this quarrel.We have nothing to do with it and may get into trouble.Also our parents are expecting to have dinner with us together and I don't want them to worry about me.”
“You are a coward (懦夫)，and afraid to go，”said Robert，and off he ran.Henry went straight home，and in the afternoon went to school as usual.
But Robert had told all the boys that Henry was a coward，and they laughed at him a great deal.From then on，they looked down upon Henry and didn't want to play with him together.
Henry was sad but he wasn't angry with Robert for his rude behaviour，because he knew that they misunderstood him，and that they ought to be afraid of nothing but doing wrong.Thus，he just ignored the other boys' laughter and continued to go to school and study as well.However，Robert didn't invite Henry to go home together with him anymore.Instead，he had some other boys who also thought Henry was a coward.Every day after school，they didn't go home directly but went to the river or somewhere to play games and had a lot of fun.
A few days later，Robert was bathing with his new friends in a river，and got out of his depth.He struggled and cried for help，but he failed.The boys who had called Henry a coward got out of the water as fast as they could，but they did nothing to help him.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右；
2．请按如下格式作答。
It seemed as if Robert would be dying._________________________________

[参考范文]
It seemed as if Robert would be dying. Just at that moment，Henry happened to be passing by.Hearing the screams，Henry ran to the riverside，threw off his clothes and jumped into the water without hesitation.He reached Robert just as he was sinking the last time.By great effort，and with much danger to himself，he brought Robert to the shore.
Thus，Robert's life was saved. Robert and his new friends were ashamed of having called Henry a coward.They realized that Henry had true courage.They said sorry to Henry for their rude behaviour and asked for his forgiveness.Henry forgave them happily.He and Robert were friends again and they went home together as usual.From this，Robert learned what true courage was—never be afraid to do good，but always fear to do evil.

A
I think a close friend is someone you get on well with，who helps you when you have problems，who gives you advice，and who always has time for you.I didn't use to have many close friends when I was at school because I was very shy，but now I have several.They are all women.I think it's difficult to have a close friend of the opposite sex(异性).

I think a close friend is someone who you've known for a long time，and who you still get on with.They have similar hobbies to you so you can do things together.I've got three close friends who I was at middle school with and we often go out together(without our parents of course).We often go camping，play football，or walk outside in the open air.
—David
I'm not sure how to answer the question because I don't really have any close friends.I know a lot of people but mainly through work，and the social occasions (场合)when we meet are business dinners，things like that.I think if you come from a really close family，friends are a bit unnecessary.I like spending my free time with my family.
—Richard
For me close friends are the people you spend your free time with.I go out at weekends with a group of people，and they are all my close friends.They're also people who live near me.I don't think you can have close friends at a distance because you need to be able to see each other often.But I don't think you need to be doing the same things.I mean I'm at school but none of my friends are.

The Enzian Art House in Florida was showing movies in the park.One evening，a few weeks before Christmas，they showed The Christmas Story and had a raffle (抽奖)with a girl's bike as the prize.It was painfully cute with colored streamers (飘带)，flowers，butterflies，a nice bell，all designed to delight a five year old.But I，aged 50，got it!

I wanted the bike to go to someone who didn't have the opportunity to own such a wonderful thing.I contacted the shelter ( where I occasionally volunteered in the kitchen )and while there was a big need for a sweet bike，there was also the potential for it creating conflict.

(2021·北师大附中高一月考)A while back I caught a news report on something called “couch surfing” and the network of trusting souls who make this phenomenon possible.They offer to put up travellers free of charge and help them on their ways.At first，it sounded unbelievable.I mean，inviting strangers into one's home for one or two nights？Give me a break.
However，I was intrigued．I decided to investigate.The only way to truly learn about this phenomenon was to dive in.So I planned a trip to Finland，a country I've always wanted to explore.I would couch surf at every stop there.
If ever any anxiety existed when stepping into the unknown，it disappeared when my first host met me at the train station.Ari looked like my idea of a typical Finn: tall and blue eyed.Finns were also supposed to be famously reserved (寡言少语的).Ari was anything but.He was a live wire，giving me an enthusiastic welcome and hiking with me to his apartment，where he showed me the sleeper sofa，served me tea，and engaged me in warm conversations.He also handed me a key to come and go as I pleased.
If this was what couch surfing was all about trust and friendship，then I had gotten off to a good start.As I boarded my next train to continue my journey，I began to think about this couch surfing idea.What urged these people to open their homes to strangers？I concluded that there was a desire to lend a hand to like minded folks who might enrich their own lives.
Seven cities in 14 days.Seven hosts.Seven new friends.If couch surfing taught me anything，it's this: Most people are good and generous.
Where will couch surfing take me next？Who knows？But I can't wait to find out.
8．Which of the following best explains the underlined word “intrigued” in the second paragraph
A．Relaxed. B．Disgusted.
C．Interested. D．Embarrassed.
9．What can we know about Ari
A．He was reserved like most Finns.
B．He talked less but he was friendly.
C．He treated the author as a friend.
D．He saw off the author at the train station.
10. Why did people offer couch surfing to strangers
A．To take an adventure with strangers.
B．To exchange houses for a short time.
C．To learn more about others' family lives.
D．To enrich their own lives by helping others.
11．What can be the suitable title for the text

(2021·辽宁六校协作体高一联考)Reality TV show has been charged with making the nation silly，but a study suggests part of the shows could be good for children.
Massey University PhD student Jacinta Hawkins looked at the influence of TV programs on kids' health knowledge，attitudes and behavior.She said programs which showed overweight people on TV are making children say “I don't want to grow up like that”．
The research was part of Ms Hawkins' paper on how schools improve health.She spoke to 92 children，aged from 7 to 13，from six Auckland primary schools to find out how they received information on nutrition and physical activity.Some said they learnt from TV news programs，but most of them mentioned reality shows such as Fat Chance，Honey We're Killing the Kids and Downsize Me.
“Earlier studies had looked at the effect junk food advertising had on children，”Ms Hawkins said，“but messages within TV programs had not been explored.Children from the six schools largely recognized program content，rather than advertising，as a source of food and physical activity messages.They are learning habits of eating and exercise from TV programs.”
The children also recognized that their parents had a role to play in shaping health behavior.Talking about Honey We're Killing the Kids, which shows how people will look if they continue with good habits，children said they developed attitudes from their family's habits.Ms Hawkins said children remembered what they had seen and thought it was the parents' duty to lead by example.
12．What did Hawkins find about reality TV show
A．It may teach kids much scientific knowledge.
B．Some shows may have kids develop ill habits.
C．Some shows may help kids eat more healthily.
D．It may draw kids' attention away from studies.

B．Doing interviews.
C．Studying science reports.
D．Comparing earlier studies.
14．How did most students get information on health
A．From health experts. B．From news reports.
C．From television ads. D．From TV shows.

(2021·辽宁葫芦岛高一上期末)Robert and Henry were two friends in the same class.They always played together and went home together.One day，Robert and Henry were going home from school.On turning a corner，Robert cried out，“A fight！Let's go and see！”
“No.” said Henry.“Let us go home quietly and not meddle with (管闲事)this quarrel.We have nothing to do with it and may get into trouble.Also our parents are expecting to have dinner with us together and I don't want them to worry about me.”
“You are a coward (懦夫)，and afraid to go，”said Robert，and off he ran.Henry went straight home，and in the afternoon went to school as usual.
But Robert had told all the boys that Henry was a coward，and they laughed at him a great deal.From then on，they looked down upon Henry and didn't want to play with him together.
Henry was sad but he wasn't angry with Robert for his rude behaviour，because he knew that they misunderstood him，and that they ought to be afraid of nothing but doing wrong.Thus，he just ignored the other boys' laughter and continued to go to school and study as well.However，Robert didn't invite Henry to go home together with him anymore.Instead，he had some other boys who also thought Henry was a coward.Every day after school，they didn't go home directly but went to the river or somewhere to play games and had a lot of fun.
A few days later，Robert was bathing with his new friends in a river，and got out of his depth.He struggled and cried for help，but he failed.The boys who had called Henry a coward got out of the water as fast as they could，but they did nothing to help him.
