Dear Henry,
I’m sorry to hear that you are having trouble fitting in your new school and at a
loss how to set goals. Such problems are quite common. Perhaps these tips will be
helpful.
Firstly, it’s better to set goals based on your abilities instead of pushing yourself
too much. Next, if I were you, I would break big goals down into smaller ones, which
will be easier to reach. What matters most is to stick to your goals and work hard
towards them once they are set.
You may find achieving goals difficult, but as long as you stay positive and
confident, you are sure to make it in the end.
Best wishes!
Yours sincerely,

Optimism(乐观 ) doesn't mean paying no attention to things that cause stress. But when bad things happen,
optimistic people are less likely to be unhappy about themselves and more likely to see the bad things as something that
lasts a short time.
A new research has found a direct connection between optimism and healthier diet and exercise behaviors, as well
as better heart health, a stronger immune system(免疫系统 ), better lung function, and lower death risk. "Optimistic
people, regardless of sex, often have goals and the confidence to reach them," Lee said. “Those goals could include
healthy habits that contribute to a longer life.”
Studies find only about 25% of our optimism is controlled by our genes(基因), and the rest is up to us. It turns out
we can actually train our brain to be more positive. Researchers studied the brains of monks (僧侣) and found surprising
results: Tens of thousands of hours of meditation(冥思) had changed the function(机能) of their brains, which support
positive qualities. And that may be key in producing the effect on the body.
There are simple mental exercises to develop an optimistic attitude. One of the most effective ways to increase
optimism is called the “Best Possible Self’’ method. That is to imagine ourselves in a future in which we have achieved
all our life goals. And keeping a diary in which we list the positive experiences we had can also help shape our attitude.
Taking a few minutes each day to write down what makes us thankful can improve our view on life, too.
24. What’s the meaning of Lee’s words
A. Goals can lead to confidence.
B. Better lung function lowers death risk.
C. Optimism is connected with length of life
D. Sex should be taken into consideration when studying optimism
高一英语 第 3 页 共 8 页
25. Why are the brains of monks studied
A. To lengthen their life. B. To improve their brains’ function
C. To prove optimism can be learned D. To show genes' connection with optimism.
26. What is the last paragraph mainly about
A. How to be a positive person. B. How to make people thankful
C. What to write about in a diary. D. What to do to achieve the goals
27. Where is this text most likely from
A. A science magazine. B. A guidebook.
C. A novel. D. A diary.

Each year people are crazy about different ceremonies. Many graduation ceremonies look special and different. But
for Melody, it looked so unique because of the classmate who graduated alongside her - her grandmother, 75-year-old
Pat Ormond. They both went to the University of Tennessee at Chattanooga (UTC) and graduated together.
Pat took her first college class 42 years ago. After one semester, she dropped out to move to Chattanooga, where
she spent the next several decades working as an accountant and raising a family. While she did take an occasional class
at UTC, she says her family continued to encourage her to go back to finish her degree, especially after she retired. She
agreed when her granddaughter decided to move to study psychology at UTC after a year at Berea College. They both
entered UTC with enough college credits to make graduating together a possibility
Pat and Melody graduated on November 20 as part of UTC's 2020 class. The achievement has also made Pat
somewhat of a celebrity(名人）.
“We are so proud to have graduates like Melody and her grandmother, Pat Ormond, in the UTC class of 2020," said
Steven, UTC Chancellor. "Together, they personify the determination, commitment and love for lifelong learning we
encourage in every UTO graduate.”
Pat hopes that she can be an example to other non-traditional college students who want to get their degrees.
“Learning never stops,” Pat said. “That's something that my father taught me when I was young. No matter what you do,
learning never stops.” Pat isn't planning to stop anytime soon. She's already working on another degree-a bachelor's
degree in history.
Meanwhile, her granddaughter, who is hunting jobs, is interested in getting a master's degree in clinical psychology
so she can become a lawyer. But she says she's in no rush. Her Nanna has taught her that she has plenty of time.
28. Why was Melody's graduation ceremony so special
A. Because her grandmother graduated alongside her
B. Because her grandmother was 75 years old.
C.Because it looked quite different from others
D. Because she celebrated it with all her classmates.
29. What can we know about Pat's family
A. They are anxious to be celebrities.
B. They prefer attending non-traditional colleges.
C. They never stop creating opportunities.
D. They support and encourage each other.
30. What does the underlined word “personify” in Paragraph 4 mean
A. Repeat. B. Represent. C. Identify. D. Follow.
31.Which of the following can best describe Pat Ormond's story
A. Love me, love my dog B. Passion gives life power.
C. A good beginning is half done. D. It's never too late to learn.

A popular saying goes, “Sticks and stones may break my bones, but words will never hurt me." However, that's not
really true. Words have the power to build us up or tear us down. It doesn't matter if the words come from someone else
or ourselves --the positive and negative effects are just as lasting.
We all talk to ourselves sometimes. We're usually too ashamed to admit it, though. In fact, we really shouldn't be
because more and more experts believe talking to ourselves out loud is a healthy habit.
This “self-talk" helps us motivate ourselves, remember things, solve problems, and calm ourselves down. Be aware,
though, that as much as 77% of self-talk tends to be negative. So in order to stay positive, we should only speak words of
encouragement to ourselves. We should also be quick to give ourselves a pat on the back. The next time you finish a
project, do well in a test, or finally clean your room, join me in saying “Good job!’
Often,words come out of our mouths without us thinking about the effect they will have. But we should be aware
that our words cause certain responses in others. For example, when returning an item to a store, we might use warm,
friendly language during the exchange. And the clerk（职员） will probably answer in a similar manner. Or harsh (刻薄
的) and critical language will most likely cause the clerk to be defensive（防御性的，戒备的）.
Words have power because of their lasting effect. Many of us regret something we once said. And we remember
unkind words said to us! Before speaking,we should always ask ourselves: Is it loving Is it needed If what we want to
say doesn't pass this test, then it's better left unsaid.
Words possess power: both positive and negative. Those around us receive encouragement when we speak
positively. We can offer hope, build self esteem(自尊)and motivate others to do their best. Negative words destroy all
those things. Will we use our words to hurt or to heal The choice is ours.
32. The main idea of the first paragraph is that____.
A. not sticks and stones but words will hurt us
B.encouraging words give us confidence
C. negative words may let us down
D.words have a great effect on us
33. There is no need for us to feel ashamed when we talk to ourselves because____.
A. almost everybody has the habit of talking to themselves
B. talking to ourselves can has positive effect on us
C. talking to ourselves always gives us courage
D. it does no harm to have "self-talk" when we are alone
34. The underlined part in the third paragraph means that we should also timely____.
A. praise ourselves B. remind ourselves
C. make ourselves relaxed D. give ourselves happiness
35. The author would probably hold the view that ____.
A. encouraging words are sure to lead to kind offers
B. negative words may stimulate（鼓舞） us to make more progress
C.people tend to remember friendly words
D. it is better to think twice before talking to others

Four Ways to Be a Great Roommate
Having a roommate can be one of the best experiences in college or, easily,one of the worst.
36 Follow these tips to avoid the common mistakes that tun good roommate relationships sour
Talk things out.
Communication is key. If something happens, sit down with your roommate and have a face-to-face conversation. I’ve
seen roommate relationships fall apart because something happens and, instead of talking to each other the two start
高一英语 第 5 页 共 8 页
complaining about their roommates behind their backs. 37
Don't expect to be best friends.
Some roommates become the best of friends, and some don't. Don't put pressure on yourself or your roommate,
especially when you first meet. 38 And if your roommate doesn't end up being your best friend, don't worry
Ask before you take.
This applies to food, clothes and anything else. If you want to keep a relationship going, show your roommate that you
have respect for what is his or hers by asking first.39
Clean up after yourself.
This should do without saying. Don't be lazy. Or, at least, don't bury your roommate in your clothes and garbage. Most
people I've come across in college are messy. 40 . But being considerate with where you put your stuff will help you
avoid conflict.
A. So you need to think twice before you help your roommates out.
B. This creates nothing but awkward situations and unhappiness.
C. Even if you both agree to share everything, you should still ask
D. You don't have all the time to clean your room and keep it organized
E. It all starts with you to have a good relationship with your roommate
F. Sometime you get stuck with someone who has tons of negative energy
G. Remember,you're trying to make a new friend,not to scare your roommate away.
