二、阅读理解
A
When did you have a really deep conversation where you felt truly heard Connections of this kind are completely necessary for people but they are not always easy to find. That’s why one woman decided to take listening to the streets. Her name is Traci Ruble, a therapist (治疗师) who is concerned that people today are experiencing loneliness and lack personal connections. She understands that with busy lives and demanding jobs, people are unable to make these connections.
On a spring day in 2015, Ruble and a small number of volunteers set up chairs on sidewalks in 12 locations around San Francisco and invited people passing by to sit for a few minutes and chat. This was the beginning of the nonprofit Sidewalk Talk. The mission is to create public spaces of connections for people. Today, the organization has more than 4,000 volunteers in 40 cities. These volunteers come from a variety of backgrounds and receive training from the organization.
Sidewalk Talk gives people a chance to speak and be listened to but it is not therapy. “Volunteers are not communicating as a therapist out there. They’re not there to solve someone’s problems. They’re there to practice being human,” Ruble said. According to Ruble, therapy is one-sided and therapists are taught to avoid self-disclosure (自我表露) but by “being human” volunteers could approach interactions with communication about their own life and by showing sympathy (同情) for the people they talk with.
Today, an increasing number of people experience loneliness, according to a report from Harvard University. In fact, 31 percent of all Americans feel serious loneliness including 61 percent of young adults. To deal with that, rebuilding community relationships is vitally important. While Sidewalk Talk will not solve the loneliness problem, these chats could help someone have a brighter day. Knowing that there are sympathetic people who are willing to fully listen and share people’s feelings could make all the difference to a lonely person.
11．What is the purpose of Sidewalk Talk
A．To provide training for those volunteers.
B．To teach the passers-by how to communicate.
C．To offer public chances of personal conversations.
D．To help people reduce pressure at work.
12．What is the difference between the volunteers of Sidewalk Talk and therapists
A．Volunteers provide non-professional therapy.
B．Volunteers prefer one-sided communication.
C．Volunteers are good at showing their success.
D．Volunteers express their experiences and feelings.
13．What can we infer about Sidewalk Talk from Paragraph 4
A．It makes people more sympathetic to others.
B．It offers a solution to the loneliness problem.
C．It plays a role in improving people’s feelings.
D．It has promoted community relationships.
14．What is the text mainly about
A．A woman guiding others to lead an active life.
B．An organization taking listening to the streets.
C．Therapists setting up chairs on sidewalks.
D．Volunteers helping others learn how to talk.
B
One of the biggest problems when we are talking is the awkward silence. Encountering this situation is so uncomfortable that you would avoid meeting new people in the first place. In the past, I struggled with this and I even thought it had to do with my DNA or something… But later I learned that once you know how to keep those words flowing, you can meet and talk to anyone you like, which helps create great possibilities for friendship, fun and shared activities that you would otherwise have missed out on.
After studying this in depth, I had different opinions and found that one of these common behaviors is the habit of filtering (过滤) — holding back from saying something until you’ve “checked” to make sure that what you’re about to say is cool, impressive and interesting. Another problem is not learning to get in the mood for conversation. If you don’t know how to change from subjects, then it can take a lot of time to warm up.
It is the reflex (习惯性思维) that allows you to say whatever goes on in your mind. It’s fun to realize that you’re allowed to say whatever is on your mind. As long as you don’t say anything that could land you in jail (监狱).
All of the “Oh! That’s interesting…” “Hmm, I’ve never heard of that” “Hmm, cool!” expressions are reactionary bits of conversation that prove to the other person that you’re really listening. This works 99% of the time. So, if you show some interest, they’ll hang around and want to talk to you even more.
Everyone knows that stories juice-up conversations, but most people only talk about stories of their own lives. When someone mentions something related to any of them, just tell the story, even if it’s not from your life. The more interesting, stranger or more frightening they are, the harder they are to forget.
15．If people can deal with the awkward silence, they can ________.
A．promote their working skill B．improve their life quality
C．enrich their social life D．establish their working relationship
16．According to the passage, what do the speakers care much about
A．The attractive topics of conversation. B．The atmosphere of the conversation.
C．The listener’s experiences and tastes. D．The listener’s curiosity and concern.
17．What does the underlined part “juice-up conversations” mean
A．making conversations more difficult
B．making conversations livelier
C．making conversations faster
D．making conversations more relaxing
三、七选五
Communication is a way of putting across one’s ideas and opinions and listening to those of the others. Many people understand the importance of communication and want to communicate their points to the other people. However, they are unable to do so. 18 Here are a few ways to communicate effectively.
Avoid interruption. Interruption can be extremely impolite. 19 Constantly interrupting the other person can make them wander from the point and the conversation can take a different turn.
Listen patiently. Healthy conversation requires listening patiently as much as it requires putting one’s point across. In order to communicate effectively, you must first listen to what the other person has to say.
20 Your body language speaks volumes about you. It is essential to keep your body language warm and friendly rather than arrogant (傲慢的). Many people unintentionally give a wrong message through their body language. If you are not sure, then it is a good idea to learn the art of body language.
Don’t go overboard (过火) with your point. 21 It is not to prove that your point is correct and the other person is wrong. Many people try to win the conversation which is absolutely wrong. It leads to unnecessary arguments and conflicts (冲突).
Watch your words. Before you say something to someone make sure you know what you are saying. At times, out of anger or anxiousness, we say things that we must not say. Remember, words once spoken cannot be taken back. 22
A．Watch your body language.
B．Two-way communication is important.
C．This is because they lack good communication skills.
D．It is thus suggested not to say something you might regret later.
E．So, it is essential to understand the importance of communication.
F．The reason behind conversation is to let the other person know what you feel.
G．It is essential to let the other person complete his point before you make yours.

五、用单词的适当形式完成短文
Friendship is a connection between people who make time to offer each other honest support. As our generation grows up in this digital age, online communication 38 (be) the norm (常态). Despite seeing some friends at school, we get most of the 39 (update) on their lives the same way we do with friends 40 live three states away — by viewing what they post on social media.
However, there is simply no way 41 (feel) real friendship other than by sharing experiences with friends you see in real life on 42 regular basis. Online friendships, on the other hand, create a false sense of support. And that’s only part of the problem. When 43 (communicate) with people online, we don’t get a full picture of who they are. This is because some people create an 44 (impress) that is different from their true self on the Internet when they aren’t satisfied 45 who they are in real life — so we can never be certain of who we 46 (deal) with online.
If we continue to depend 47 (heavy) on social media for support, we will lose important social skills.

11．细节理解题。根据第二段中“On a spring day in 2015, Ruble and a small number of volunteers set up chairs on sidewalks in 12 locations around San Francisco and invited people passing by to sit for a few minutes and chat. This was the beginning of the nonprofit Sidewalk Talk. The mission is to create public spaces of connections for people.(2015年春天的一天，Ruble和一小部分志愿者在旧金山周围的12个地方的人行道上摆放了椅子，并邀请路过的人坐下来聊几分钟。这就是非盈利组织Sidewalk Talk的开始。其使命是为人们创造联系的公共空间)”可知，Sidewalk Talk的目的是为公众提供私人谈话的机会。故选C项。
12．细节理解题。根据第三段中“According to Ruble, therapy is one-sided and therapists are taught to avoid self-disclosure (自我表露) but by “being human” volunteers could approach interactions with communication about their own life and by showing sympathy (同情) for the people they talk with.(根据Ruble的说法，治疗是单方面的，治疗师被教导要避免自我表露，但通过“作为人”的方式，志愿者可以通过交流自己的生活和对谈话对象表示同情来进行互动)”可知，Sidewalk Talk的志愿者和治疗师之间的不同在于前者会表达自己的经历和感受，而后者会避免自我表露。故选D项。
13．推理判断题。根据第四段中“While Sidewalk Talk will not solve the loneliness problem, these chats could help someone have a brighter day. Knowing that there are sympathetic people who are willing to fully listen and share people’s feelings could make all the difference to a lonely person.(虽然Sidewalk Talk不能解决孤独问题，但这些聊天可以帮助人们度过更美好的一天。知道有同情的人愿意充分倾听和分享人们的感受，这对一个孤独的人来说会有很大的不同)”可知，Sidewalk Talk让人们得到了慰藉，有助于他们度过更好的一天。由此推知，Sidewalk Talk在改善人们的情绪方面起着作用。故选C项。
14．主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章介绍了治疗师Ruble因为意识到人们对深入谈话和被倾听的需求，组织创立了非盈利组织Sidewalk Talk，和志愿者们在路边邀请路人进行双向的谈话，让当今日益孤独的人得到慰藉。由此可知，文章主要围绕倾听街边想法的组织Sidewalk Talk展开。故选B项。
15．C 16．D 17．B
【导语】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文，我们谈话时最大的问题之一是尴尬的沉默，遇到这种情况是很不舒服的，作者结合自己的切身经历就这一问题表达了自己的观点。
15．细节理解题。由第一段中的“But later I learned that once you know how to keep those words flowing, you can meet and talk to anyone you like, which helps create great possibilities for friendship, fun and shared activities that you would otherwise have missed out on. (但后来我了解到，一旦你知道如何保持这些话语的流动，你就可以与任何你喜欢的人见面和交谈，这有助于为友谊、乐趣和共享活动创造巨大的可能性，否则你会错过这些机会)”可知，如果在谈话时能打破尴尬的沉默，知道说什么，怎么说，就能为友谊，乐趣和共享活动创造巨大的可能性，他们就能丰富他们的社交生活。故选C项。
16．推理判断题。由第四段中的“All of the “Oh! That’s interesting…” “Hmm, I’ve never heard of that” “Hmm, cool!” expressions are reactionary bits of conversation that prove to the other person that you’re really listening. (所有的“哦！太有趣了……”“嗯，我从来没有听说过”“哦，太酷了！”这些表达都是反应的对话，向对方证明你真的在听)”和“So, if you show some interest, they’ll hang around and want to talk to you even more. (所以，如果你表现出一些兴趣，他们会留下来，更想和你说话)”可知，听者的赞美之词和他们有兴趣想了解更多的好奇心和关注，是说话者最关心的。故选D项。
17．词句猜测题。由最后一段中的“Everyone knows that stories juice-up conversations (每个人都知道故事juice-up conversations)”和“The more interesting, stranger or more frightening they are, the harder they are to forget. (它们越有趣、越陌生、越可怕，就越难忘记)”可知，故事越有趣或越惊险，就越吸引人，听者就越难忘记，这说明了故事在谈话中的重要性；划线词语所在的句子指每个人都知道故事会让对话变得生动有趣，“juice-up conversations”指让对话变得生动有趣，与B项同义。故选B项。
18．C 19．G 20．A 21．F 22．D
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了几个可以让人们进行有效交流的方法。
18．根据上文“Many people understand the importance of communication and want to communicate their points to the other people. However, they are unable to do so. (许多人理解沟通的重要性，并希望将自己的观点传达给其他人。然而，他们无法做到这一点)”可知，人们知道沟通的重要性，但却不能很好的沟通。结合下文提到的几个沟通技巧可知，出现这样的情况，是因为人们缺乏沟通技巧。C项“This is because they lack good communication skills.(这是因为他们缺乏沟通技巧)”符合题意，This指代上文“they are unable to do so”。故选C。
19．根据上文“Interruption can be extremely impolite.(打断别人是非常不礼貌的)”可知，打断别人说话非常不礼貌。由此可知，等别人说完，你再说话是基本礼仪。G项“It is essential to let the other person complete his point before you make yours.(在你提出你的观点之前，让对方完成他的观点是基本礼仪)”符合题意，且贴合本段主旨“Avoid interruption.(避免插话)”。故选G。
20．空处为本段主旨句。根据下文“Your body language speaks volumes about you. It is essential to keep your body language warm and friendly rather than arrogant (傲慢的). Many people unintentionally give a wrong message through their body language. If you are not sure, then it is a good idea to learn the art of body language.(你的肢体语言充分说明了你。保持你的肢体语言温暖友好而不是傲慢是至关重要的。许多人无意中通过肢体语言传递了一个错误的信息)”可知，本段的建议是注意自己的肢体语言。A项“Watch your body language.(注意你的肢体语言)”可以作为本段主旨句。故选A。
21．根据主旨句“Don’t go overboard (过火) with your point.(不要过分强调你的观点)”和下文“It is not to prove that your point is correct and the other person is wrong. (这并不是为了证明你的观点是正确的，而另一个人是错误的)”可知，不要过分强调自己的观点，交流的目的不是证明谁对谁错。由此推知，空处陈述交流的真正目的——让其他人了解你的想法和感受。F项“The reason behind conversation is to let the other person know what you feel.(交流背后的原因是让对方知道你的感受)”符合题意。故选F。
22．空处位于段末，应承接上文。根据上文“At times, out of anger or anxiousness, we say things that we must not say. Remember, words once spoken cannot be taken back.(有时，出于愤怒或焦虑，我们会说一些我们不能说的话。记住，一旦说出的话就无法收回)”推知，我们不能因为糟糕的情绪说出一些让自己后悔的话，因为一些话一旦说出就无法收回。D项“It is thus suggested not to say something you might regret later.(因此，建议以后不要说一些你可能会后悔的话)”符合题意，且贴合本段主旨“Watch your words. (注意你的言辞)”。故选D。
23．A 24．B 25．C 26．C 27．D 28．D 29．A 30．B 31．C 32．A 33．D 34．A 35．B 36．C 37．D

38．is 39．updates 40．who/that 41．to feel 42．a 43．communicating 44．impression 45．with 46．are dealing 47．heavily
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了友谊是一种人与人之间的联系，他们抽出时间互相提供真诚的支持。随着我们这一代人在数字时代的成长，在线交流已成为常态。然而，要感受真正的友谊，除了与你在现实生活中经常见到的朋友分享经验之外，没有别的方法。
38．考查动词的时态和主谓一致。句意：随着我们这一代人在数字时代的成长，在线交流已成为常态。由空前的“our generation grows up”可知，此处说的是现阶段的状态，应用一般现在时。主语online communication为抽象事物，谓语动词应用单数。故填is。
39．考查名词复数。句意：尽管我们在学校见过一些朋友，但我们了解他们生活的大多数最新情况，就像我们与住在三个州之外的朋友一样——通过查看他们在社交媒体上发布的内容。联系语境可知，update在此处表示“最新消息”，为可数名词，由空前的most of和空后的their lives可知，此处表示复数概念，故用其复数形式。故填updates。
40．考查定语从句。句意：尽管我们在学校见过一些朋友，但我们了解他们生活的大多数最新情况，就像我们与住在三个州之外的朋友一样——通过查看他们在社交媒体上发布的内容。分析句子结构可知，空处引导定语从句，指代先行词friends，且在从句中作主语，指人。故填who/that。
