类型1 说明文
Friendships can have a major effect on your health and happiness, but it’s not always easy to develop or keep friendships. You should understand the importance of social connection in your life and what you can do to develop lasting friendships.
What are the advantages of friendships
Friends can help you celebrate good times and provide support during bad times. 1 Friends give you a chance to offer needed companionship(陪伴), too. Friends increase your happiness and reduce your stress. Friends encourage you to go through the hard times and improve your self-confidence.
2 Friends play an important role in guiding you to develop good habits and keep healthy. Adults have a risk of many health problems, including depression(抑郁)and high blood pressure. In fact, studies have found that older adults who have meaningful relationships and social supports are likely to live longer than their peers with fewer connections.
Why is it sometimes hard to make friends or keep friendships
Many adults find it hard to develop new friendships or keep up existing friendships. Friendships may take a back seat to other more important ones, such as working or caring for children or aging parents. 3 Or maybe you’ve moved to a new community and haven’t yet found a way to meet people.
Developing and keeping good friendships take efforts. 4 To meet new people who might become your friends, you have to go to places where others are gathered. Don’t limit yourself to one strategy for meeting people. 5
A．Never giving up also matters.
B．Good friends are good for your health.
C．Friends prevent you from sadness as well as loneliness.
D．The broader your efforts, the greater your possibilities of success.
E．You and your friends may have grown apart due to changes in your lives or interests.
F．We benefit from our friends because we get to choose the ones who make us feel happiest.
G．However, friendship can provide enjoyment and comfort which makes the effort worthwhile.
Have you ever tried asking for respect from another adult 6 Furthermore, demanding respect from coworkers, family members or business associates is almost out of the question.
That’s because the concept of respect must be spoon-fed at an early age. Adults who don’t understand the importance of respect are not likely to change. In the developmental years, they all need to comprehend kindness, behaving politely and using good manners. 7 They can easily open career doors, maintain good relationships and manage groups of people.
That’s why it pays to teach respectful behavior to children and young adults in your life. These include nieces and nephews, students or younger employees.
Giving and getting respect is the best way to keep society in harmony. How We don’t waste time in arguing and rocking each other’s boat. 8
● 9 Show them how to eat in a healthy way, get enough rest, take care of their clothes and help with housework. Show them they are valuable.
●Point out the good qualities of other people. Help your children focus on positive aspects of people from other cultures, neighborhoods and socioeconomic backgrounds.
●Teach them that everyone does not think alike. 10 Tell your children, “Learn more about what your friends are thinking. Ask questions. Try to see the viewpoints of others.”
●Allow your child to have a pet if possible. Caring for an animal is also an effective means of helping your child understand the feelings and needs of another creature.
A．It’s difficult to accomplish.
B．Teach them to respect themselves.
C．Teach them to live a healthy lifestyle.
D．Explain every person views situations differently.
E．Adults who are respectful are likely to become successful.
F．An adult with good manners will surely have a safe ride in life
G．These points are critical to showing your kids how to give respect.
Ways to Develop Self-discipline
Five years ago, I was the heaviest I’ve weighed in my life. When I would run, I’d immediately get tired. The worst part is that I had no motivation to get healthier—until I threw my back out. 11 When I went to physical therapy (治疗), the young woman helping me pointed to my stomach and said, “we need to awaken these muscles.” From that point on, I knew I had to change. I had to think about how to develop self-discipline with eating and working out.
12 But I eventually lost 30 pounds and have maintained a consistent workout schedule for the past five years. Of course, self-discipline is bigger than just physical health. Having discipline helps us grow, makes us reliable, and strengthens our moral framework. Here’s how to develop self-discipline.
Set clear end goals. 13 If we don’t set clear goals, we’ll float around like feathers in the breeze. If you want to be disciplined, set clear and measurable goals. Then display those goals where you’ll see them every day.
Do the small things. We all want big change quickly. It doesn’t happen that way, though. Self-discipline starts by performing small activities consistently. The small things add up to big results. 14 Every small act of faithfulness makes your self-discipline stronger.
Keep record of your progress. It’s pointless to have goals if you aren’t measuring whether or not you are moving toward them. When I don’t track my progress, I stop doing things I need to do and become lazy. It’s easy to lack discipline when you lose focus on where you’re going. 15
A．It did take a lot of work.
B．I decided to take regular exercise.
C．Keeping track helps you stay on point.
D．We have to keep in mind where we want to go.
E．Occasionally, you may get results without effort.
F．I had shooting pains down my legs whenever I got up.
G．It may take time to see those returns, but stick with it.

A Great Way to Teach Children to Take Responsibility
As parents, one of the most important things to teach children to take responsibility is to include chores as a part of their daily routine. In order to make a family function smoothly, every member must contribute. Teaching your children to take responsibility at an early age makes it easier for them to shoulder greater responsibilities as they grow older.
16 If your children leave their crayons lying on the table after drawing, picking up those crayons is not a chore. It is cleaning up a mess they have created. 17
18 . For example, if it is to feed the dog every day, make sure the children understand that if they fail in their responsibility, the dog will go hungry.
Make rewards and punishments a part of the lesson. Together decide whether they will be rewarded or not. 19 Some parents make their reward a monetary payment, while others choose to reward with certain privileges, such as extra television viewing time.
Children need to be taught that there are punishments for their actions in case of not doing their assigned chores. Decide and agree from the start what the punishment will be.
Teaching your children the importance of contributing to the family is of great importance. 20 By taking this step, you have done a wonderful thing for your children by providing them with life skills they can take with them into society.
A．A chore is a specific task a child has been assigned which helps improve the life of the entire family.
B．And what punishment they will receive if a chore isn’t done.
C．Actually you are taking a critical step in empowering them for their future.
D．Start by teaching children the difference between a chore and cleaning up after themselves.
E．Teach children the importance of each assignment, and why it matters.
F．Children will not be rewarded at all for merely cleaning up.
G．And if so, what the reward will be for a job well done.
If you are feeling that life just cannot be any worse for you, it can be challenging to think positive thoughts. When we are stressed, depressed, upset, or otherwise in a negative state of mind because we perceive (认为) that “bad things” keep happening to us, it is important to shift (转换) those negative thoughts to something positive. 21
It is often very hard to think positive when so many things are negative. 22 We can choose to think differently by beginning with the smallest of steps.
If you start with one small, positive thing and repeat it during the course of your day, you will begin to move into a more positive situation: positive thoughts, feelings, opportunities and people will start showing up in your life. 23
You can begin and end each day with a “Thank you for this wonderful day!” When you see the gas prices hiking, say “I am so glad that I have a vehicle in which to get around.” When you are late for work, say “ 24 ” If you are having health problems, be grateful for what does work :“I really do appreciate my eyes that see, my ears that hear, my mouth that tastes, and…”
25 In moments when you’re feeling really down, read what you wrote previously. This will help uplift your spirits. If you practice this regularly, you will find that your list will get longer and longer.
A．Therefore, we don’t need to turn to others.
B．If we don’t, more “bad things” will come up.
C．Write down what you’re grateful for each day.
D．But I am sure someone, somewhere is worse off than you.
E．The possibilities here are endless: feel good about what does work for you!
F．I am so happy and grateful for my job as I know that many don’t have one.
G．With practice, you will find you will change your outlook (看法) and choose to be happy.
类型3 记叙文
Anyone who knows me well would see me as an optimist (乐观主义者). 26 . This was the case for me on a particularly cold January day.
I felt tired by the painful challenges I was dealing with in my personal life. 27 — The gray sky blocked even a single ray of sunlight.
About midway through the day, I left work to get some lunch. Still feeling negative (消极的), I noticed that the sun had come out for a moment. I began to think about my negative attitude and reminded myself that I was responsible for choosing my state of mind. 28 . Even though I reminded myself of this truth, I couldn’t make the change.
As I stopped at a red light, I looked at the car in front. The license (执照) plate caught my eye—It read “SUNOUT”. This brought an immediate smile to my face. 29 . And in the midst of the longest, darkest, coldest winter, this was a blessing. Then my eyes moved to the next car. The license plate on that car read FOOL. This brought more than a smile to my face as I laughed out loud! Seeing the two opposite license plates encouraged me to choose my right attitude. 30 .
I learned that day that when we’re feeling too discouraged to bring ourselves out of an active state, relief is only a prayer away!
A．Pessimists (悲观主义者) think in the opposite way, however
B．However, even optimists can sometimes lose hope
C．It felt like a reminder that the sun was shining after all
D．Do you think that the sunshine will spread throughout your life
E．I felt my spirit lifted as I made the decision to choose a positive attitude
F．While I couldn’t ignore the pain I was going through, I could choose to think positively
G．The weather seemed to match my feelings
Rock music consists of many different styles. Even though there is a common spirit among all music groups, they make very different music. 31 At that time the Beatles entered the world of music from Liverpool.
After they were given an invitation to appear live on BBC, the Beatles quickly became famous in Britain with nationwide tours. By mid-1963, the Beatles had been extremely popular in England. 32 They held large concerts and performed at clubs. They became the hottest thing on the pop music scene in England. They began as a modestly successful musician group and ended the year as show business legends. John Lennon and Paul McCartney were named composers of the year.
33 They were not sure how the Americans would react to the new type of music. Beatlemania hit New York on February 7, 1964. Hundreds of fans jammed the airport to greet them. 34 The concert was broadcast live and attracted the largest one night audience in the history of television up to that time. The Beatles were described as a British invasion (入侵) by local and nationwide newspapers at that time. Their victory in America was still remembered as a major turning point in the history of rock and roll. Thanks to the Beatles, a lot of opportunities were opened up to new faces on the market. 35
A．Even their hairstyles became major trends at that time.
B．They decided on a concert tour to the United States in 1964.
C．However, their songs changed the lives of generations to come.
D．Rock music started to develop in the 1950s and the early 1960s.
E．Many rock bands were able to follow in the footsteps of the Beatles.
F．They appeared in the films A Hard Day’s Night (1964) and Help! (1965).
G．They performed their first concert in America at CBS television’s 53rd street studio.

这是一篇议论文。通过实例说明父母应该如何教孩子承担责任。
16．根据段落行文的规律，第一段往往是总说。而到第二段开始就是分说了。既然第一段已经总起这篇文章，那么第二段开始的地方就应该是描述如何承担责任的第一个环节。再根据这段后面的内容：如果你的孩子在画画之后将蜡笔留在桌上，那么收拾这些蜡笔就不是琐事，而是收拾打扫他们所造成的乱糟糟的环境。那么这段刚开始就应该说明这些内容的总起：以什么样的方式开始教孩子承担责任呢？选项D内容：Start by teaching children the difference between a chore and cleaning up after themselves. 事后通过教孩子区分琐事和清洁之间的区别开始。这一选项切合题意。故选D。
17．根据空格前面的内容：如果你的孩子在画画之后将蜡笔留在桌上，那么收拾这些蜡笔就不是琐事，而是收拾打扫他们所造成的乱糟糟的环境。那么接下来就应当讲述一下什么是琐事这个定义。因此A选项：A chore is a specific task a child has been assigned which helps improve the life of the entire family.琐事就是一项特别的任务，小孩子得到的任务是帮助提升整个家庭的生活质量而付出的努力。此项切合题意，故选A。
18．根据空格后面的描述：如果是每天喂狗的话，要确保孩子懂得如果他们哪天没有履行职责的话，狗会挨饿。这件事情的描述告诉我们一定要告诉孩子每一件事情的重要性以及这件事为什么重要。而E选项：Teach children the importance of each assignment, and why it matters.教会孩子每件任务的重要性以及为什么重要。此项切合题意，故选E。
19．根据上下文得知此段的核心和关键词是讲回报和惩罚。空格前面两句话可以推出如下结果：让回报和惩罚成为每日功课的一部分。和孩子一起决定他们是否应该得到奖励，如果是的……，有些父母亲……根据此推定，选项G最切合题意：And if so, what the reward will be for a job well done. 如果是的话，对于做的好的工作应该得到什么奖励。故选G。
20．空格前的句子告诉我们教孩子为家庭做贡献非常重要。空格后句子告诉我们通过采取这个步骤，你已经为你的孩子做了一件很精彩的事情，那就是为你的孩子形成了走向社会的生活技能。这个生活技能在这里指的是父母亲在培养孩子承担责任的同时收获了的技能，可以在社会上立足的技能。这个与孩子的未来生活密切相关，而选项C：Actually you are taking a critical step in empowering them for their future.事实上你正采取的是关键的一步，帮助孩子为他们的将来赋能。为他们的将来赋能不就是培养孩子的责任感让他们在将来走向社会时可以立足吗？由此可以推出答案为C选项。故选C。
本文是议论文。论述了要学会欣赏，学会感恩，越感恩越幸运。
21．根据空前“When we are stressed, depressed, upset, or otherwise in a negative state of mind because we perceive (认为) that “bad things” keep happening to us, it is important to shift (转换) those negative thoughts to something positive.(当我们不堪重负、沮丧、失落，抑或因为我们认为倒霉的事总是光临我们而处于消极状态时，将这些消极的思想转变为积极的至关重要。)”说明重要的是要把消极的想法转变为积极的事情，因此下文是shift后的好处或反之的后果。因此推断B项“如果没有转变，就会招来更多的不幸。”符合语境，前后是转折关系，故选B项。
22．空前“It is often very hard to think positive when so many things are negative.(有如此之多消极因素还要想些积极的东西，通常情况下这很难。)”陈述当很多事情都是消极的时候，你很难去想积极的事情，空后“We can choose to think differently by beginning with the smallest of steps.( 我们可以换种方式，一步一步细细思考那些消极的东西。)”陈述要转变思维，因此推断D项“但我可以保证，在某些地方有人比你情况还糟”符合语境，故选D项。
23．上文“If you start with one small, positive thing and repeat it during the course of your day, you will begin to move into a more positive situation: positive thoughts, feelings, opportunities and people will start showing up in your life.(从一件积极的小事情开始，并且一整天就一直重复想着，你将进入一个更加积极的状态：积极的思想、情感、机遇、人们开始装扮你的人生。)” 可推断，本段强调think positive需要反复练习。G项中的“practice”与之相符。因此推断G项“这样练下去，很快你会发现你将改变你的观点，选择快乐的生活，而不在意周围那些琐事。”符合语境，故选G项。
24．根据上文“You can begin and end each day with a “Thank you for this wonderful day!” When you see the gas prices hiking, say “I am so glad that I have a vehicle in which to get around.”(你可以在每一天开始和结束的时候，说一句“感谢这么一个愉快的一天”。当你看到燃气价格高涨的时候，说“我很高兴我至少还有着这辆车可以到处兜风。”)” 可知，本段强调对生活中不如意的事也要有好的评价或看法。因此推断空格处与上文“say ‘I am so glad that I have a vehicle in which to get around’”相呼应。F项“我很高兴，也很感激我的工作，因为我知道很多人都没有。”符合语境，故选F项。
25．根据下文“In moments when you’re feeling really down, read what you wrote previously. This will help uplift your spirits. If you practice this regularly, you will find that your list will get longer and longer.(每当你失落的时候，读一读你曾经写下的心情，这会让你从新振作起来。经常这样练习，你会发现你所感激的东西越来越多。)”可知，本段讲述要感激生活中的许多事情，C项中的“grateful”与之相符，因此推断C项“记下每天让你感激的事”符合语境，故选C项。
类型3

27．根据本空后的“The gray sky blocked even a single ray of sunlight.(灰暗的天空甚至没有一缕阳光)”可知，这里用天气比喻作者当时的心情。所以G项“The weather seemed to match my feelings(天气似乎很合我的心情)”符合语境。故选G；
28．根据本空前的“I began to think about my negative attitude and reminded myself that I was responsible for choosing my state of mind.(我开始思考我的消极态度，并提醒自己，我有责任选择我的心态)”可知，作者转变心态，选择积极思考。所以F项“While I couldn’t ignore the pain I was going through, I could choose to think positively(虽然我不能忽视我正在经历的痛苦，但我可以选择积极地思考)”符合语境。故选F；

这是一篇记叙文。介绍了摇滚乐队披头士的发展故事；

Even though there is a common spirit among all music groups, they make very different music.（摇滚乐由许多不同的风格组成。尽管所有音乐团体都有共同的精神，但他们制作的音乐却截然不同。）”指出摇滚乐不同的音乐团体有各自的特色，可推测下文可能会提及摇滚乐发展不同阶段的典例；空格下文“At that time the Beatles entered the world of music from Liverpool.（那时，披头士乐队从利物浦进入音乐世界。）”指出“那时”，应该是空格处句子提到过的一个时间。选项D“Rock music started to develop in the 1950s and the early 1960s.（摇滚乐在20世纪50年代和60年代初开始发展。）”指出摇滚乐最初的发展时间与后文有关联，符合语境。故选D项；

Friendships can have a major effect on your health and happiness, but it’s not always easy to develop or keep friendships. You should understand the importance of social connection in your life and what you can do to develop lasting friendships.
What are the advantages of friendships
Friends can help you celebrate good times and provide support during bad times. 1 Friends give you a chance to offer needed companionship(陪伴), too. Friends increase your happiness and reduce your stress. Friends encourage you to go through the hard times and improve your self-confidence.
2 Friends play an important role in guiding you to develop good habits and keep healthy. Adults have a risk of many health problems, including depression(抑郁)and high blood pressure. In fact, studies have found that older adults who have meaningful relationships and social supports are likely to live longer than their peers with fewer connections.
Why is it sometimes hard to make friends or keep friendships
Many adults find it hard to develop new friendships or keep up existing friendships. Friendships may take a back seat to other more important ones, such as working or caring for children or aging parents. 3 Or maybe you’ve moved to a new community and haven’t yet found a way to meet people.
Developing and keeping good friendships take efforts. 4 To meet new people who might become your friends, you have to go to places where others are gathered. Don’t limit yourself to one strategy for meeting people. 5
A．Never giving up also matters.
B．Good friends are good for your health.
C．Friends prevent you from sadness as well as loneliness.
D．The broader your efforts, the greater your possibilities of success.
E．You and your friends may have grown apart due to changes in your lives or interests.
F．We benefit from our friends because we get to choose the ones who make us feel happiest.
G．However, friendship can provide enjoyment and comfort which makes the effort worthwhile.
Have you ever tried asking for respect from another adult 6 Furthermore, demanding respect from coworkers, family members or business associates is almost out of the question.
That’s because the concept of respect must be spoon-fed at an early age. Adults who don’t understand the importance of respect are not likely to change. In the developmental years, they all need to comprehend kindness, behaving politely and using good manners. 7 They can easily open career doors, maintain good relationships and manage groups of people.
That’s why it pays to teach respectful behavior to children and young adults in your life. These include nieces and nephews, students or younger employees.
Giving and getting respect is the best way to keep society in harmony. How We don’t waste time in arguing and rocking each other’s boat. 8

●Point out the good qualities of other people. Help your children focus on positive aspects of people from other cultures, neighborhoods and socioeconomic backgrounds.
●Teach them that everyone does not think alike. 10 Tell your children, “Learn more about what your friends are thinking. Ask questions. Try to see the viewpoints of others.”
●Allow your child to have a pet if possible. Caring for an animal is also an effective means of helping your child understand the feelings and needs of another creature.
A．It’s difficult to accomplish.
B．Teach them to respect themselves.
C．Teach them to live a healthy lifestyle.
D．Explain every person views situations differently.
E．Adults who are respectful are likely to become successful.
F．An adult with good manners will surely have a safe ride in life

Ways to Develop Self-discipline
Five years ago, I was the heaviest I’ve weighed in my life. When I would run, I’d immediately get tired. The worst part is that I had no motivation to get healthier—until I threw my back out. 11 When I went to physical therapy (治疗), the young woman helping me pointed to my stomach and said, “we need to awaken these muscles.” From that point on, I knew I had to change. I had to think about how to develop self-discipline with eating and working out.
12 But I eventually lost 30 pounds and have maintained a consistent workout schedule for the past five years. Of course, self-discipline is bigger than just physical health. Having discipline helps us grow, makes us reliable, and strengthens our moral framework. Here’s how to develop self-discipline.
Set clear end goals. 13 If we don’t set clear goals, we’ll float around like feathers in the breeze. If you want to be disciplined, set clear and measurable goals. Then display those goals where you’ll see them every day.
Do the small things. We all want big change quickly. It doesn’t happen that way, though. Self-discipline starts by performing small activities consistently. The small things add up to big results. 14 Every small act of faithfulness makes your self-discipline stronger.
Keep record of your progress. It’s pointless to have goals if you aren’t measuring whether or not you are moving toward them. When I don’t track my progress, I stop doing things I need to do and become lazy. It’s easy to lack discipline when you lose focus on where you’re going. 15
A．It did take a lot of work.
B．I decided to take regular exercise.
C．Keeping track helps you stay on point.
D．We have to keep in mind where we want to go.
E．Occasionally, you may get results without effort.
F．I had shooting pains down my legs whenever I got up.
G．It may take time to see those returns, but stick with it.

A Great Way to Teach Children to Take Responsibility
As parents, one of the most important things to teach children to take responsibility is to include chores as a part of their daily routine. In order to make a family function smoothly, every member must contribute. Teaching your children to take responsibility at an early age makes it easier for them to shoulder greater responsibilities as they grow older.
16 If your children leave their crayons lying on the table after drawing, picking up those crayons is not a chore. It is cleaning up a mess they have created. 17
18 . For example, if it is to feed the dog every day, make sure the children understand that if they fail in their responsibility, the dog will go hungry.
Make rewards and punishments a part of the lesson. Together decide whether they will be rewarded or not. 19 Some parents make their reward a monetary payment, while others choose to reward with certain privileges, such as extra television viewing time.
Children need to be taught that there are punishments for their actions in case of not doing their assigned chores. Decide and agree from the start what the punishment will be.
Teaching your children the importance of contributing to the family is of great importance. 20 By taking this step, you have done a wonderful thing for your children by providing them with life skills they can take with them into society.
A．A chore is a specific task a child has been assigned which helps improve the life of the entire family.
B．And what punishment they will receive if a chore isn’t done.
C．Actually you are taking a critical step in empowering them for their future.
D．Start by teaching children the difference between a chore and cleaning up after themselves.
E．Teach children the importance of each assignment, and why it matters.
F．Children will not be rewarded at all for merely cleaning up.
G．And if so, what the reward will be for a job well done.
If you are feeling that life just cannot be any worse for you, it can be challenging to think positive thoughts. When we are stressed, depressed, upset, or otherwise in a negative state of mind because we perceive (认为) that “bad things” keep happening to us, it is important to shift (转换) those negative thoughts to something positive. 21
It is often very hard to think positive when so many things are negative. 22 We can choose to think differently by beginning with the smallest of steps.
If you start with one small, positive thing and repeat it during the course of your day, you will begin to move into a more positive situation: positive thoughts, feelings, opportunities and people will start showing up in your life. 23
You can begin and end each day with a “Thank you for this wonderful day!” When you see the gas prices hiking, say “I am so glad that I have a vehicle in which to get around.” When you are late for work, say “ 24 ” If you are having health problems, be grateful for what does work :“I really do appreciate my eyes that see, my ears that hear, my mouth that tastes, and…”
25 In moments when you’re feeling really down, read what you wrote previously. This will help uplift your spirits. If you practice this regularly, you will find that your list will get longer and longer.
A．Therefore, we don’t need to turn to others.
B．If we don’t, more “bad things” will come up.
C．Write down what you’re grateful for each day.
D．But I am sure someone, somewhere is worse off than you.
E．The possibilities here are endless: feel good about what does work for you!
F．I am so happy and grateful for my job as I know that many don’t have one.
G．With practice, you will find you will change your outlook (看法) and choose to be happy.
类型3 记叙文
Anyone who knows me well would see me as an optimist (乐观主义者). 26 . This was the case for me on a particularly cold January day.
I felt tired by the painful challenges I was dealing with in my personal life. 27 — The gray sky blocked even a single ray of sunlight.
About midway through the day, I left work to get some lunch. Still feeling negative (消极的), I noticed that the sun had come out for a moment. I began to think about my negative attitude and reminded myself that I was responsible for choosing my state of mind. 28 . Even though I reminded myself of this truth, I couldn’t make the change.
As I stopped at a red light, I looked at the car in front. The license (执照) plate caught my eye—It read “SUNOUT”. This brought an immediate smile to my face. 29 . And in the midst of the longest, darkest, coldest winter, this was a blessing. Then my eyes moved to the next car. The license plate on that car read FOOL. This brought more than a smile to my face as I laughed out loud! Seeing the two opposite license plates encouraged me to choose my right attitude. 30 .
I learned that day that when we’re feeling too discouraged to bring ourselves out of an active state, relief is only a prayer away!
A．Pessimists (悲观主义者) think in the opposite way, however
B．However, even optimists can sometimes lose hope
C．It felt like a reminder that the sun was shining after all
D．Do you think that the sunshine will spread throughout your life
E．I felt my spirit lifted as I made the decision to choose a positive attitude
F．While I couldn’t ignore the pain I was going through, I could choose to think positively
G．The weather seemed to match my feelings
Rock music consists of many different styles. Even though there is a common spirit among all music groups, they make very different music. 31 At that time the Beatles entered the world of music from Liverpool.
After they were given an invitation to appear live on BBC, the Beatles quickly became famous in Britain with nationwide tours. By mid-1963, the Beatles had been extremely popular in England. 32 They held large concerts and performed at clubs. They became the hottest thing on the pop music scene in England. They began as a modestly successful musician group and ended the year as show business legends. John Lennon and Paul McCartney were named composers of the year.
33 They were not sure how the Americans would react to the new type of music. Beatlemania hit New York on February 7, 1964. Hundreds of fans jammed the airport to greet them. 34 The concert was broadcast live and attracted the largest one night audience in the history of television up to that time. The Beatles were described as a British invasion (入侵) by local and nationwide newspapers at that time. Their victory in America was still remembered as a major turning point in the history of rock and roll. Thanks to the Beatles, a lot of opportunities were opened up to new faces on the market. 35
A．Even their hairstyles became major trends at that time.
B．They decided on a concert tour to the United States in 1964.
C．However, their songs changed the lives of generations to come.
D．Rock music started to develop in the 1950s and the early 1960s.
E．Many rock bands were able to follow in the footsteps of the Beatles.
F．They appeared in the films A Hard Day’s Night (1964) and Help! (1965).

这是一篇议论文。通过实例说明父母应该如何教孩子承担责任。
16．根据段落行文的规律，第一段往往是总说。而到第二段开始就是分说了。既然第一段已经总起这篇文章，那么第二段开始的地方就应该是描述如何承担责任的第一个环节。再根据这段后面的内容：如果你的孩子在画画之后将蜡笔留在桌上，那么收拾这些蜡笔就不是琐事，而是收拾打扫他们所造成的乱糟糟的环境。那么这段刚开始就应该说明这些内容的总起：以什么样的方式开始教孩子承担责任呢？选项D内容：Start by teaching children the difference between a chore and cleaning up after themselves. 事后通过教孩子区分琐事和清洁之间的区别开始。这一选项切合题意。故选D。
17．根据空格前面的内容：如果你的孩子在画画之后将蜡笔留在桌上，那么收拾这些蜡笔就不是琐事，而是收拾打扫他们所造成的乱糟糟的环境。那么接下来就应当讲述一下什么是琐事这个定义。因此A选项：A chore is a specific task a child has been assigned which helps improve the life of the entire family.琐事就是一项特别的任务，小孩子得到的任务是帮助提升整个家庭的生活质量而付出的努力。此项切合题意，故选A。
18．根据空格后面的描述：如果是每天喂狗的话，要确保孩子懂得如果他们哪天没有履行职责的话，狗会挨饿。这件事情的描述告诉我们一定要告诉孩子每一件事情的重要性以及这件事为什么重要。而E选项：Teach children the importance of each assignment, and why it matters.教会孩子每件任务的重要性以及为什么重要。此项切合题意，故选E。
19．根据上下文得知此段的核心和关键词是讲回报和惩罚。空格前面两句话可以推出如下结果：让回报和惩罚成为每日功课的一部分。和孩子一起决定他们是否应该得到奖励，如果是的……，有些父母亲……根据此推定，选项G最切合题意：And if so, what the reward will be for a job well done. 如果是的话，对于做的好的工作应该得到什么奖励。故选G。
20．空格前的句子告诉我们教孩子为家庭做贡献非常重要。空格后句子告诉我们通过采取这个步骤，你已经为你的孩子做了一件很精彩的事情，那就是为你的孩子形成了走向社会的生活技能。这个生活技能在这里指的是父母亲在培养孩子承担责任的同时收获了的技能，可以在社会上立足的技能。这个与孩子的未来生活密切相关，而选项C：Actually you are taking a critical step in empowering them for their future.事实上你正采取的是关键的一步，帮助孩子为他们的将来赋能。为他们的将来赋能不就是培养孩子的责任感让他们在将来走向社会时可以立足吗？由此可以推出答案为C选项。故选C。
本文是议论文。论述了要学会欣赏，学会感恩，越感恩越幸运。
21．根据空前“When we are stressed, depressed, upset, or otherwise in a negative state of mind because we perceive (认为) that “bad things” keep happening to us, it is important to shift (转换) those negative thoughts to something positive.(当我们不堪重负、沮丧、失落，抑或因为我们认为倒霉的事总是光临我们而处于消极状态时，将这些消极的思想转变为积极的至关重要。)”说明重要的是要把消极的想法转变为积极的事情，因此下文是shift后的好处或反之的后果。因此推断B项“如果没有转变，就会招来更多的不幸。”符合语境，前后是转折关系，故选B项。
22．空前“It is often very hard to think positive when so many things are negative.(有如此之多消极因素还要想些积极的东西，通常情况下这很难。)”陈述当很多事情都是消极的时候，你很难去想积极的事情，空后“We can choose to think differently by beginning with the smallest of steps.( 我们可以换种方式，一步一步细细思考那些消极的东西。)”陈述要转变思维，因此推断D项“但我可以保证，在某些地方有人比你情况还糟”符合语境，故选D项。
23．上文“If you start with one small, positive thing and repeat it during the course of your day, you will begin to move into a more positive situation: positive thoughts, feelings, opportunities and people will start showing up in your life.(从一件积极的小事情开始，并且一整天就一直重复想着，你将进入一个更加积极的状态：积极的思想、情感、机遇、人们开始装扮你的人生。)” 可推断，本段强调think positive需要反复练习。G项中的“practice”与之相符。因此推断G项“这样练下去，很快你会发现你将改变你的观点，选择快乐的生活，而不在意周围那些琐事。”符合语境，故选G项。
24．根据上文“You can begin and end each day with a “Thank you for this wonderful day!” When you see the gas prices hiking, say “I am so glad that I have a vehicle in which to get around.”(你可以在每一天开始和结束的时候，说一句“感谢这么一个愉快的一天”。当你看到燃气价格高涨的时候，说“我很高兴我至少还有着这辆车可以到处兜风。”)” 可知，本段强调对生活中不如意的事也要有好的评价或看法。因此推断空格处与上文“say ‘I am so glad that I have a vehicle in which to get around’”相呼应。F项“我很高兴，也很感激我的工作，因为我知道很多人都没有。”符合语境，故选F项。
25．根据下文“In moments when you’re feeling really down, read what you wrote previously. This will help uplift your spirits. If you practice this regularly, you will find that your list will get longer and longer.(每当你失落的时候，读一读你曾经写下的心情，这会让你从新振作起来。经常这样练习，你会发现你所感激的东西越来越多。)”可知，本段讲述要感激生活中的许多事情，C项中的“grateful”与之相符，因此推断C项“记下每天让你感激的事”符合语境，故选C项。
