Throughout all the events in my life, one in particular sticks out more than the others. As I reflect on this significant event, a smile spreads across my face. As I think of Shanda, I feel loved and grateful.
It was my twelfth year of dancing, I thought it would end up like any other year: stuck in emptiness, forgotten and without the belief of any teacher or friend that I really had the potential to achieve greatness.
However, I met Shanda, a young, talented choreographer (编舞者,舞蹈指导). She influenced me to work to the best of my ability, pushed me to keep going when I wanted to give up, encouraged me and showed me the real importance of dancing. Throughout our hard work, not only did my ability to dance grow, but my friendship with Shanda grew as well.
With the end of the year came our show time. As I walked to a backstage filled with other dancers, I hoped for a good performance that would prove my improvement. I waited anxiously for my turn. Finally, after what seemed like days, the loudspeaker announced my name. Butterflies filled my stomach as I took trembling steps onto the big lighted stage. But, with the determination to succeed and eagerness to live up to Shanda’s expectations for me, I began to dance. All my troubles and nerves went away as I danced my whole heart out.
As I walked up to the judge to receive my first place shining, gold trophy (奖杯), I realized that dance is not about becoming the best. It was about loving dance for dance itself, a getaway from all my problems in the world. Shanda showed me that you could let everything go and just dance what you feel at that moment. After all the doubts that people had in me, I believed in myself and did not care what others thought. Thanks to Shanda, dance became more than a love of mine, but a passion.
4. What did the author think her dancing would be for the twelfth year
A. A change for the better. B. A proof of her potential.
C. A disappointment as before. D. A pride of her teachers and friends.
5. How did Shanda help the author
A. By offering her help with money. B. By entering her in a competition.
C. By coaching her for longer hours. D. By awakening her passion for dancing.
6. How did the author feel when she stepped on the stage
A. Proud. B. Relaxed. C. Confused. D. Nervous.
7. What can we learn from the author’s story
A. Success lies in patience. B. A good teacher really matters.
C. Fame is what the young long for. D. A youth is to be treated with respect.
【答案】4. C 5. D 6. D 7. B
【解析】

Facebook is widely used in the US, Britain and many other countries. But should children under 13 be allowed to use it Well, whether children under 13 are allowed to use it or not, many of them are doing that. They use it to find out what shopping center to meet in after school tomorrow and what park to hang out in on Saturday afternoon. Under-13s might not have Facebook accounts, both here and in the US, but that hasn’t stopped hundreds of thousands of them from using dates of birth which are not true to start an account.
Yes, of course parents like me worry that means our kids are at risk of both being bullied (欺凌) and of bullying others. But the important thing to realize here is that bullying takes place in the school lunch hall or on the playground. No one is trying to stop under-13s from those places, right
Some fear that their children are prey (受害者) for bad people on Facebook. Again, does your kid travel alone or go to a shopping center without you Most children do from the time they go to high school. And just as you teach them the rules for staying safe when they’re out and alone, you teach them the rules for staying safe online.
Facebook is about what life is about, which is connecting with others. When children are young, we supervise (监管) them. As they get older, we trust them to connect without us around all the time. And what Facebook does is to teach our kids a language that will surely be important to their future, because today’s children are going to be interacting (互动) online with friends, and in the future business partners and customers for the rest of their lives. Why, when we’re trying to educate them in useful skills on other fronts, hold them back on this one
8. According to the passage, many under-13s have Facebook accounts because they .
A. could open accounts using untrue information B. are no longer limited to own them
C. ask their parents to open accounts for them D. can buy accounts from others
9. What can we learn from Paragraph 2
A. Bullying on Facebook isn’t scary at all.
B. Bullying hardly takes place on Facebook.
C. Parents cannot stop children from using Facebook.
D. Facebook is just one more place where bullying happens.
10. By mentioning children go to a shopping center alone, the author means that .
A. kids can keep away from dangers themselves B. it’s very dangerous for kids to do that
C. kids should be taught online safety rules D. it’s impossible to keep children away from Facebook
11. Which is the best title of this passage
A. The Dangers of Social Media for Kids B. Should Under-13s Be Allowed on Facebook
C. Why Do Kids Love Facebook D. Rules for Online Safety
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了Facebook对孩子的影响，告诉大家在注意网络安全的同时学习掌握Facebook等现代科学技术的积极作用。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“Under-13s might not have Facebook accounts, both here and in the US, but that hasn’t stopped hundreds of thousands of them from using dates of birth which are not true to start an account.(13岁以下的人可能没有Facebook账户，无论是在这里还是在美国，但这并不能阻止成千上万的人使用不真实的出生日期来注册账户)”可知，许多13岁以下的人都有Facebook账户，因为他们可以使用不真实的信息开户。故选A。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段“Yes, of course parents like me worry that means our kids are at risk of both being bullied(欺凌) and of bullying others. But the important thing to realize here is that bullying takes place in the school lunch hall or on the playground. No one is trying to stop under-13s from those places, right (是的，像我这样的父母当然会担心，这意味着我们的孩子有被欺负和欺负别人的风险。但重要的是要意识到欺凌发生在学校食堂或操场上。没人想阻止13岁以下的孩子去那些地方，对吧？)”可知，Facebook只是另一个发生欺凌行为的地方。故选D。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第三段中“Again, does your kid travel alone or go to a shopping center without you Most children do from the time they go to high school. And just as you teach them the rules for staying safe when they’re out and alone, you teach them the rules for staying safe online.(同样，你的孩子是独自旅行还是独自去购物中心 大多数孩子从上高中开始就这样做了。就像你教他们在独自外出时要注意安全一样，你也教他们在网上要注意安全)”可推知，通过提到孩子独自去购物中心，作者想暗示孩子们应该被教导网络安全规则。故选C。
【11题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段“Facebook is widely used in the US, Britain and many other countries. But should children under 13 be allowed to use it Well, whether children under 13 are allowed to use it or not, many of them are doing that.( Facebook在美国、英国和许多其他国家被广泛使用。但是13岁以下的儿童应该被允许使用它吗？好吧，不管13岁以下的孩子是否被允许使用，他们中的许多人都在这样做)”结合文章主要介绍了Facebook对孩子的影响，告诉大家在注意网络安全的同时学习掌握Facebook等现代科学技术的积极作用。故B选项“应该允许13岁以下的人上Facebook吗？”最符合文章标题。故选B。
D
There’s no doubt that positive thinking impacts one’s life. However, in recent years, I’ve come to understand that perhaps positive thinking can result in toxic (有毒的) positivity, which has negative results. What we should be aiming for instead is emotional validation (确认) .
Toxic positivity is the maintenance of positive thinking even in situations where it isn’t appropriate. “It often comes at the risk of denying(否认) our own real feelings or the feelings of others,” says Nina Vasan, MD. While positive thinking in general is a great thing, toxic positivity isn’t. It’s the act of denying anything negative that’s actually happening, and it can involve making people feel bad for having normal human emotions. Someone practicing toxic positivity might say things like “everything happens for a reason” or “just look on the bright side” when a friend shares something difficult in his/her life.
Vasan tells us that with toxic positivity, emotions like sorrow and anger are pushed aside. However, emotional validation allows you to have your feelings. To be exact, emotional validation is about allowing people to experience their feelings and acknowledging that having negative feelings is real and often important. That doesn’t mean it promotes and encourages negative thinking endlessly, though.
Toxic positivity encourages us to focus only on the positive, which can stop us from dealing with the feelings we need to work through. Practicing emotional validation is a healthier option for you and the ones you love. “This can be as simple as saying ‘I understand you’re really sad’.” explains Vasan. Offering your understanding shows our loved ones that we care about their feelings. Besides, instead of telling someone to look on the bright side, you should offer words and thoughts of support instead.
Toxic positivity has become prevalent, and you probably know a lot of people who dismiss your negative experiences with statements like “you’re too sensitive”. Now you can say: Whatever you’re feeling is temporary and allowing yourself to feel it will help you get through it.
12. What is emotional validation
A. Avoiding risks in terrible situations. B. Denying people’s negative feelings.
C. Maintaining positive in hard times. D. Accepting emotional ups and downs.
13. What may the author recommend you to say to a sad person
A. Perhaps something fortunate is still waiting for you.
B. I’m sure there’s a good reason for what has happened.
C. You have every right to feel upset and I am here for you.
D. I understand your sadness but being sensitive is no good.
14. What does the underlined word “prevalent” in the last paragraph probably mean
A. Creative. B. Widespread. C. Challenging. D. Enormous.
15. What is the main idea of the text
A. Admitting negativity is reasonable. B. Promoting positivity is worthwhile.
C. Sticking to positivity is significant. D. Expressing negativity is inappropriate.
【答案】12. D 13. C 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇议论文，讲述了有毒的积极性具有负面影响，我们应该转向情感认可，去正视别人的情感，承认别人的消极情绪。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“However, emotional validation allows you to have your feelings. To be exact, emotional validation is about allowing people to experience their feelings and acknowledging that having negative feelings is real and often important.(然而，情感认可可以让你有自己的感受。确切地说，情感认可让人们体验自己的感受，并承认负面感受是真实的，而且往往很重要。)”可知，情感认可接受情绪的起伏。故选D。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“Now you can say: Whatever you’re feeling is temporary and allowing yourself to feel it will help you get through it.(现在你可以说：你感觉到的一切都是暂时的，允许自己去感受它，这会帮助你渡过它。)”可知，作者认为可以认可对方的负面情绪，让对方去感受自己的负面情绪。根据第四段中的“Besides, instead of telling someone to look on the bright side, you should offer words and thoughts of support instead.(此外，不要告诉别人往好的方面看，你应该用语言和思想来支持他们。)”可知，作者认为要支持情绪低落的人。由此可推测出，C项“你有权利感到沮丧，我在这里陪着你。”最适合对一个悲伤的人说。故选C。
【14题详解】
词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句中的“you probably know a lot of people who dismiss your negative experiences with statements like ‘you’re too sensitive’”可知，有很多人用“你太敏感了”这种话来驳斥你，由此可推测出，有毒的积极性很盛行，prevalent意为“普遍存在的，盛行的”，与widespread(普遍的，广泛的)意思最接近。故选B。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。通读全文可知，第一段中的“I’ve come to understand that perhaps positive thinking can result in toxic(有毒的) positivity, which has negative results. What we should be aiming for instead is emotional validation(确认).（然而，近年来，我逐渐明白，也许积极的想法会导致有毒的积极性，这会产生负面的结果。相反，我们应该追求情感认可。）”可知，本文主要讲述了有毒的积极性具有负面影响，我们应该转向情感认可，去正视别人的情感，承认别人的消极情绪。因此，A项“承认负面情感是合理的”符合文章大意。故选A。

You've come back from your holiday and you feel amazingly recharged. ____16____ Then, you open your inbox. You have hundreds, if not thousands, of unanswered emails. Suddenly, your calm starts to disappear and your blood pressure starts to rise. Yet, that's no way to start your first day at work after a holiday. Here's what you do to keep your stress to a minimum after a break.
____17____ Take this time to unpack and do some housework. Do whatever you need to do to wrap up the holiday bits and slowly start getting back into your daily routine. When you do this, you're much more likely to suffer from less stress. You will also feel more prepared going back into work.
As much as possible, limit your meetings and scheduled commitments the first week back. ____18____ The worst thing you can do is have back-to-back meetings the first few days with little or no time to actually catch up on what you've missed. Keep your calendar as clear as possible and get started on categorizing your unread emails. Split them into categories like urgent, non-urgent, quick responses, and no action needed. ____19____
Up your fun the week you're back. Go out for a meal with your friends. Walk your favorite route in your neighborhood. Look at the pictures from your holiday. ____20____ Hence, make a little time for play your first week back-and the weeks that follow. This will help you to feel happy and energized even though your holiday is behind you.
A. This enables you to deal with your overflowing inbox.
B. You've got a spring in your step and a smile on your face.
C. Remember, there will be plenty more holidays in the future.
D. So the first week back at work will be more tiring than usual.
E. Give yourself at least half a day before you jump back into work.
F. Then, start the urgent ones before diving into the quick responses.
G. Post-holiday blues can be very common if you go straight into all work.
【答案】16. B 17. E 18. A 19. F 20. G
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了三条如何从假期过渡到工作状态的建议。
【16题详解】
根据空前“You've come back from your holiday and you feel amazingly recharged.(你度假回来后，你感觉到无比的精力充沛。)”可知，空前提出了度假回来的状态，充满活力，故B项“你的脚步轻快，脸上挂着微笑。”符合，此处进一步说明度假回来开心的状态，故选B项。
【17题详解】
根据空后“Take this time to unpack and do some housework.(利用这段时间打开行李，做一些家务。)”可知，空后的“this time”指代E项 “在你回到工作之前，给你自己至少半天的时间。” 中的“at least half a day”，本空提出在回到工作之前，给自己至少半天的时间，空后指明利用这段时间打开行李，做一些家务活，故选E项。
【18题详解】
根据空前“As much as possible, limit your meetings and scheduled commitments the first week back.(尽可能在第一周限制你的会议和预定的承诺。)”可知，A项“这能让你处理堆满的邮箱。”是空前的顺义承接，在第一周限制会议和预定的承诺，这能让你腾出时间来处理堆满了的邮箱，故选A项。
【19题详解】
根据空前“Split them into categories like urgent, non-urgent, quick responses, and no action needed.(将它们分为紧急、非紧急、快速回应和无需采取行动等类别。)”可知，空前提出要将邮箱里的邮件进行分类，故F项“先处理紧急的，然后再处理徐快速回应的。”符合，分类后就要根据紧急和非紧急的类别来先后处理这些邮件，故选F项。
【20题详解】
根据空后“Hence, make a little time for play your first week back-and the weeks that follow. (因此，留出一点时间，在回来的第一周和接下来的几周里适当地放松一下。)”可知，空后给出了结果，故G项“如果你直接投入工作的话，可能会出现假期后的忧郁，这些都是很正常的。”符合，本空提出如果假期结束后直接投入工作会出现忧郁的感觉，因此要留出一些时间，在回来的第一周或者接下来的几周里适当地放松一下，故选G项。

Throughout all the events in my life, one in particular sticks out more than the others. As I reflect on this significant event, a smile spreads across my face. As I think of Shanda, I feel loved and grateful.
It was my twelfth year of dancing, I thought it would end up like any other year: stuck in emptiness, forgotten and without the belief of any teacher or friend that I really had the potential to achieve greatness.
However, I met Shanda, a young, talented choreographer (编舞者,舞蹈指导). She influenced me to work to the best of my ability, pushed me to keep going when I wanted to give up, encouraged me and showed me the real importance of dancing. Throughout our hard work, not only did my ability to dance grow, but my friendship with Shanda grew as well.
With the end of the year came our show time. As I walked to a backstage filled with other dancers, I hoped for a good performance that would prove my improvement. I waited anxiously for my turn. Finally, after what seemed like days, the loudspeaker announced my name. Butterflies filled my stomach as I took trembling steps onto the big lighted stage. But, with the determination to succeed and eagerness to live up to Shanda’s expectations for me, I began to dance. All my troubles and nerves went away as I danced my whole heart out.
As I walked up to the judge to receive my first place shining, gold trophy (奖杯), I realized that dance is not about becoming the best. It was about loving dance for dance itself, a getaway from all my problems in the world. Shanda showed me that you could let everything go and just dance what you feel at that moment. After all the doubts that people had in me, I believed in myself and did not care what others thought. Thanks to Shanda, dance became more than a love of mine, but a passion.

Facebook is widely used in the US, Britain and many other countries. But should children under 13 be allowed to use it Well, whether children under 13 are allowed to use it or not, many of them are doing that. They use it to find out what shopping center to meet in after school tomorrow and what park to hang out in on Saturday afternoon. Under-13s might not have Facebook accounts, both here and in the US, but that hasn’t stopped hundreds of thousands of them from using dates of birth which are not true to start an account.
Yes, of course parents like me worry that means our kids are at risk of both being bullied (欺凌) and of bullying others. But the important thing to realize here is that bullying takes place in the school lunch hall or on the playground. No one is trying to stop under-13s from those places, right
Some fear that their children are prey (受害者) for bad people on Facebook. Again, does your kid travel alone or go to a shopping center without you Most children do from the time they go to high school. And just as you teach them the rules for staying safe when they’re out and alone, you teach them the rules for staying safe online.
Facebook is about what life is about, which is connecting with others. When children are young, we supervise (监管) them. As they get older, we trust them to connect without us around all the time. And what Facebook does is to teach our kids a language that will surely be important to their future, because today’s children are going to be interacting (互动) online with friends, and in the future business partners and customers for the rest of their lives. Why, when we’re trying to educate them in useful skills on other fronts, hold them back on this one
8. According to the passage, many under-13s have Facebook accounts because they .
A. could open accounts using untrue information B. are no longer limited to own them
C. ask their parents to open accounts for them D. can buy accounts from others
9. What can we learn from Paragraph 2
A. Bullying on Facebook isn’t scary at all.
B. Bullying hardly takes place on Facebook.
C. Parents cannot stop children from using Facebook.
D. Facebook is just one more place where bullying happens.
10. By mentioning children go to a shopping center alone, the author means that .
A. kids can keep away from dangers themselves B. it’s very dangerous for kids to do that
C. kids should be taught online safety rules D. it’s impossible to keep children away from Facebook
11. Which is the best title of this passage
A. The Dangers of Social Media for Kids B. Should Under-13s Be Allowed on Facebook
C. Why Do Kids Love Facebook D. Rules for Online Safety
D
There’s no doubt that positive thinking impacts one’s life. However, in recent years, I’ve come to understand that perhaps positive thinking can result in toxic (有毒的) positivity, which has negative results. What we should be aiming for instead is emotional validation (确认) .
Toxic positivity is the maintenance of positive thinking even in situations where it isn’t appropriate. “It often comes at the risk of denying(否认) our own real feelings or the feelings of others,” says Nina Vasan, MD. While positive thinking in general is a great thing, toxic positivity isn’t. It’s the act of denying anything negative that’s actually happening, and it can involve making people feel bad for having normal human emotions. Someone practicing toxic positivity might say things like “everything happens for a reason” or “just look on the bright side” when a friend shares something difficult in his/her life.
Vasan tells us that with toxic positivity, emotions like sorrow and anger are pushed aside. However, emotional validation allows you to have your feelings. To be exact, emotional validation is about allowing people to experience their feelings and acknowledging that having negative feelings is real and often important. That doesn’t mean it promotes and encourages negative thinking endlessly, though.
Toxic positivity encourages us to focus only on the positive, which can stop us from dealing with the feelings we need to work through. Practicing emotional validation is a healthier option for you and the ones you love. “This can be as simple as saying ‘I understand you’re really sad’.” explains Vasan. Offering your understanding shows our loved ones that we care about their feelings. Besides, instead of telling someone to look on the bright side, you should offer words and thoughts of support instead.
Toxic positivity has become prevalent, and you probably know a lot of people who dismiss your negative experiences with statements like “you’re too sensitive”. Now you can say: Whatever you’re feeling is temporary and allowing yourself to feel it will help you get through it.
12. What is emotional validation
A. Avoiding risks in terrible situations. B. Denying people’s negative feelings.
C. Maintaining positive in hard times. D. Accepting emotional ups and downs.
13. What may the author recommend you to say to a sad person
A. Perhaps something fortunate is still waiting for you.
B. I’m sure there’s a good reason for what has happened.
C. You have every right to feel upset and I am here for you.
D. I understand your sadness but being sensitive is no good.
14. What does the underlined word “prevalent” in the last paragraph probably mean
A. Creative. B. Widespread. C. Challenging. D. Enormous.
15. What is the main idea of the text
A. Admitting negativity is reasonable. B. Promoting positivity is worthwhile.
C. Sticking to positivity is significant. D. Expressing negativity is inappropriate.
