During the winter break , I found my dad 's old CD player in a drawer that I had never seen before . It reminded me of the three CDs I recently bought from Mostly Books , a second - hand media store on South Street . I knew I could put the player to good use with them .
However , I was a naughty kid who broke closet doors and shelves , so my dad was often unwilling to let me borrow his things . I couldn’t decide whether to ask my dad about using the player ." Can you help me with your old CD player I want to play some CDs ," I finally asked him after walking into his home office that day . Despite my worries , my dad said yes .

Watching my dad prepare his old CD player for use was my first step toward understanding him .

At Granger High School,freshmen(新生)came from different junior high schools. Some freshmen were worried and nervous when going into senior high school. “When we were registering (注册) for our classes , I was a little nervous . I didn’t know anyone at Granger. I’m kind of social. If a teacher puts me with someone, I can get along well with them.However,it’s different starting in a new school with lots of strangers ,”Mark Calderon said .
While many had similar feelings to Calderon , others had a different opinion ." I didn’t really care about going to senior high school . I already had lots of friends at Granger. Besides , my friends from other junior high schools were going to go to Granger, so going there meant we all would get to be together ," Jordan Thomas said .
The transition （过渡） to senior high school is just the first part . The other part is being able to get through high school with a comfortable experience , meaning trying to get the grades they want ." I’m not doing so well in my schoolwork ." Calderon said . Many other freshmen can relate . The first year of senior high school can be difficult for students to get used to because classes are more difficult than those in junior high school . The pace（节奏）feels a little faster for those who have a hard time dealing with their study.
Not only that , surveys also showed that about 40 percent of freshmen are always not going to school . Unluckily , lots of freshmen have failing grades . “The time that’s provided for them on Mondays and Tuesdays is to help them catch up in classes. Instead they’re busy talking to their friends and playing around,” Mr Timothy , a senior high school teacher , said.

Whether shyness is part of your child’s personality or just something they feel when they are in front of a group of strangers , it is a typical experience. “ Shyness isn’t always as socially valued as more outgoing personalities. However, we should step back and think about different personalities and their unique advantages,” said Pérez-Edgar , professor of psychology(心理学)at The Pennsylvania State University. “ Everyone can feel shy at times . And those who are especially shy often have happy social lives ----they just aren’t likely to be the liveliest person in a crowded room .”
But there are things to watch out for . If your children are avoiding situations that are important or could be enjoyable for them because they’re feeling nervous , it might be time to take action , said Chiappini , a child expert . “That could mean not speaking in class , trouble making friends , or not joining in activities they like .” she said .
Chiappini recommended first saying something like : “You seem a little nervous or unsure about who everyone is/what to say . We haven’t met them before and that can feel a little uncomfortable .”From there , you can encourage them to join someone or say something when they are ready -----with the promise that you will be there to support them , she added .
The more we avoid situations where kids may feel shy , the more anxiety（担心）we will have about them in the future . But that doesn’t mean to push your child into the deep end .
“We may have to deal with the situation step by step . For example , you may have to encourage your child just to make eye contact during an outing before expecting them to ask someone a question ,” Chiappini said .
12、What may Pérez - Edgar agree with
A. Shyness is not as bad as people have thought .
B. Children are more likely to feel shy than adults .
C. Shy people like to stay with lively people .
D. It’s difficult for people to get over shyness .
13、When should action be taken to help shy kids
A. When they ask for instructions from others .
B. When they feel nervous in school activities .
C. When they try hard to mix with other children .
D. When they are absent from important situations .
14、What does Chiappini advise parents to do at first
A. Tell their kids what they should say .
B. Ask their kids how they are feeling .
C. Help their kids stay away from some situations.
D. Show their kids they understand how they feel .
15、What can we infer from the last two paragraph
A. Parents should be strict with the shy children.
B. Parents should push the shy children to be outgoing.
C. Parents should be patiently guide the shy children.
D. Parents should encourage shy children to make eye contact with them .

However, it’s different starting in a new school with lots of strangers,” Mark Calderon said.(“当我们注册课程时，我有点紧张。我在格兰杰谁也不认识。我有点社交。如果老师把我和别人放在一起，我就能和他们相处得很好。然而，在一所新学校和许多陌生人开始是不一样的，”马克·卡尔德龙说)”可知，马克·卡尔德隆担心与新同学的关系。故选D项。
9、答案：D
解析：推理判断题。根据第二段“While many had similar feelings to Calderon, others had a different opinion. “I didn’t really care about going to senior high school. I already had lots of friends at Granger.

The pace (节奏) feels a little faster for those who have a hard time dealing with their study.(中的第一年对学生来说可能很难适应，因为课程比初中更难。对于那些在学习上有困难的人来说，节奏会快一些)”可知，此处是在讲述，很多高一新生觉得自己的功课不好，所以作者说“Many other freshmen can relate.”的意思是许多大一新生都有类似的经历。故选A项。
11、答案：B
解析：主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Not only that, surveys also showed that about 40 percent of freshmen are always not going to school. Unluckily, lots of freshmen have failing grades. “The time that’s provided for them on Mondays and Tuesdays is to help them catch up in classes. Instead they’re busy talking to their friends and playing around,” Mr Timothy, a senior high school teacher, said.(不仅如此，调查还显示，大约40%的高一新生总是不去上学。不幸的是，很多高一新生成绩不及格。“周一和周二为他们提供的时间是为了帮助他们赶上课程。相反，他们忙着和朋友聊天、玩耍，”身为高中教师的蒂莫西表示)”可知，本段主要讲述了学生学习落后的原因。故选B项。
12、答案：A
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段““Shyness isn’t always as socially valued as more outgoing personalities. However, we should step back and think about different personalities and their unique advantages,” said Pérez-Edgar, professor of psychology (心理学) at The Pennsylvania State University. “Everyone can feel shy at times. And those who are especially shy often have happy social lives --they just aren’t likely to be the liveliest person in a crowded room.”(“害羞并不总是像外向的人那样受到社会的重视。然而，我们应该退后一步，思考不同的性格和他们独特的优势，”宾夕法尼亚州立大学心理学教授Pérez-Edgar说。“每个人都有害羞的时候。而那些特别害羞的人通常有着快乐的社交生活——他们只是不太可能是拥挤的房间里最活跃的人。”)”可知，Pérez-Edgar教授认为害羞的人也有自己独特的优势，所以他会同意害羞并不像人们想象的那么糟糕。故选A项。
13、答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“But there are things to watch out for. If your children are avoiding situations that are important or could be enjoyable for them because they’re feeling nervous, it might be time to take action, said Chiappini, a child expert. “That could mean not speaking in class, trouble making friends, or not joining in activities they like.” she said.(但也有一些事情需要注意。儿童专家Chiappini说，如果你的孩子因为感到紧张而回避对他们来说重要或愉快的情况，那么可能是时候采取行动了。“这可能意味着在课堂上不说话，交朋友困难，或者不参加他们喜欢的活动。”她说)”可知，当他们在重要场合缺席时应该采取行动来帮助害羞的孩子。故选D项。
14、答案：D
解析：推理判断题。根据第三段“Chiappini recommended first saying something like: “You seem a little nervous or unsure about who everyone is/what to say . We haven’t met them before and that can feel a little uncomfortable.”(Chiappini建议先说这样的话：“你似乎有点紧张，或者不确定每个人都是谁/该说什么。我们以前没有见过他们，这可能会让人感到有点不舒服。”)”可知，Chiappini建议父母首先让他们的孩子明白他们知道他们的感受。故选D项。
15、答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The more we avoid situations where kids may feel shy, the more anxiety (担心) we will have about them in the future. But that doesn’t mean to push your child into the deep end.(我们越是避免让孩子感到害羞的情况，我们将来就会对他们感到越多的焦虑。但这并不意味着要把你的孩子推向深渊)”以及最后一段““We may have to deal with the situation step by step. For example, you may have to encourage your child just to make eye contact during an outing before expecting them to ask someone a question,” Chiappini said.(“我们可能不得不一步一步地处理这种情况。例如，你可能需要鼓励你的孩子在外出时进行眼神交流，然后再期待他们问别人问题，”Chiappini说)”可知，父母应该帮助孩子处理害羞的情况，并且需要一步一步地处理这种情况，所以父母应该耐心地引导害羞的孩子。故选C项。

Excuse yourself, and go somewhere to cool off."（当你勃然大怒时，你的父母很难理解你的观点。如果你生气或沮丧，从谈话中休息一下。为自己找个借口，找个地方冷静冷静。）可知，讲的是调整好自己的情绪。结合选项F项Gather your thoughts and try talking to your parents again.（整理一下思绪，再试着和你的父母谈谈。）意思一致，为该段内容的总结。故选F项。
⑤根据该段标题Be brave.（要勇敢。）提到勇气。以及下文 "But your parents almost always can help you solve a problem or answer a big question, and you'll almost always feel better afterward." （但是你的父母几乎总是可以帮你解决一个问题或回答一个大问题，之后你几乎总是会感觉更好。）讲的是父母可以帮助你解决问题。结合选项G项You might have a question for long before you get up the courage to let it out.（在 你鼓起勇气说出来之前，你可能会有一个问题想了很久。）为上下文语意的衔接，起到上下文的承上启下作用，上下文语意连贯。故选G项。

At Granger High School,freshmen(新生)came from different junior high schools. Some freshmen were worried and nervous when going into senior high school. “When we were registering (注册) for our classes , I was a little nervous . I didn’t know anyone at Granger. I’m kind of social. If a teacher puts me with someone, I can get along well with them.However,it’s different starting in a new school with lots of strangers ,”Mark Calderon said .
While many had similar feelings to Calderon , others had a different opinion ." I didn’t really care about going to senior high school . I already had lots of friends at Granger. Besides , my friends from other junior high schools were going to go to Granger, so going there meant we all would get to be together ," Jordan Thomas said .
The transition （过渡） to senior high school is just the first part . The other part is being able to get through high school with a comfortable experience , meaning trying to get the grades they want ." I’m not doing so well in my schoolwork ." Calderon said . Many other freshmen can relate . The first year of senior high school can be difficult for students to get used to because classes are more difficult than those in junior high school . The pace（节奏）feels a little faster for those who have a hard time dealing with their study.
Not only that , surveys also showed that about 40 percent of freshmen are always not going to school . Unluckily , lots of freshmen have failing grades . “The time that’s provided for them on Mondays and Tuesdays is to help them catch up in classes. Instead they’re busy talking to their friends and playing around,” Mr Timothy , a senior high school teacher , said.

Whether shyness is part of your child’s personality or just something they feel when they are in front of a group of strangers , it is a typical experience. “ Shyness isn’t always as socially valued as more outgoing personalities. However, we should step back and think about different personalities and their unique advantages,” said Pérez-Edgar , professor of psychology(心理学)at The Pennsylvania State University. “ Everyone can feel shy at times . And those who are especially shy often have happy social lives ----they just aren’t likely to be the liveliest person in a crowded room .”
But there are things to watch out for . If your children are avoiding situations that are important or could be enjoyable for them because they’re feeling nervous , it might be time to take action , said Chiappini , a child expert . “That could mean not speaking in class , trouble making friends , or not joining in activities they like .” she said .
Chiappini recommended first saying something like : “You seem a little nervous or unsure about who everyone is/what to say . We haven’t met them before and that can feel a little uncomfortable .”From there , you can encourage them to join someone or say something when they are ready -----with the promise that you will be there to support them , she added .
The more we avoid situations where kids may feel shy , the more anxiety（担心）we will have about them in the future . But that doesn’t mean to push your child into the deep end .
“We may have to deal with the situation step by step . For example , you may have to encourage your child just to make eye contact during an outing before expecting them to ask someone a question ,” Chiappini said .
12、What may Pérez - Edgar agree with
A. Shyness is not as bad as people have thought .
B. Children are more likely to feel shy than adults .
C. Shy people like to stay with lively people .
D. It’s difficult for people to get over shyness .
13、When should action be taken to help shy kids
A. When they ask for instructions from others .
B. When they feel nervous in school activities .
C. When they try hard to mix with other children .
D. When they are absent from important situations .
14、What does Chiappini advise parents to do at first
A. Tell their kids what they should say .
B. Ask their kids how they are feeling .
C. Help their kids stay away from some situations.
D. Show their kids they understand how they feel .
15、What can we infer from the last two paragraph
A. Parents should be strict with the shy children.
B. Parents should push the shy children to be outgoing.
C. Parents should be patiently guide the shy children.
D. Parents should encourage shy children to make eye contact with them .

解析：主旨大意题。根据最后一段“Not only that, surveys also showed that about 40 percent of freshmen are always not going to school. Unluckily, lots of freshmen have failing grades. “The time that’s provided for them on Mondays and Tuesdays is to help them catch up in classes. Instead they’re busy talking to their friends and playing around,” Mr Timothy, a senior high school teacher, said.(不仅如此，调查还显示，大约40%的高一新生总是不去上学。不幸的是，很多高一新生成绩不及格。“周一和周二为他们提供的时间是为了帮助他们赶上课程。相反，他们忙着和朋友聊天、玩耍，”身为高中教师的蒂莫西表示)”可知，本段主要讲述了学生学习落后的原因。故选B项。
12、答案：A
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段““Shyness isn’t always as socially valued as more outgoing personalities. However, we should step back and think about different personalities and their unique advantages,” said Pérez-Edgar, professor of psychology (心理学) at The Pennsylvania State University. “Everyone can feel shy at times. And those who are especially shy often have happy social lives --they just aren’t likely to be the liveliest person in a crowded room.”(“害羞并不总是像外向的人那样受到社会的重视。然而，我们应该退后一步，思考不同的性格和他们独特的优势，”宾夕法尼亚州立大学心理学教授Pérez-Edgar说。“每个人都有害羞的时候。而那些特别害羞的人通常有着快乐的社交生活——他们只是不太可能是拥挤的房间里最活跃的人。”)”可知，Pérez-Edgar教授认为害羞的人也有自己独特的优势，所以他会同意害羞并不像人们想象的那么糟糕。故选A项。
13、答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段“But there are things to watch out for. If your children are avoiding situations that are important or could be enjoyable for them because they’re feeling nervous, it might be time to take action, said Chiappini, a child expert. “That could mean not speaking in class, trouble making friends, or not joining in activities they like.” she said.(但也有一些事情需要注意。儿童专家Chiappini说，如果你的孩子因为感到紧张而回避对他们来说重要或愉快的情况，那么可能是时候采取行动了。“这可能意味着在课堂上不说话，交朋友困难，或者不参加他们喜欢的活动。”她说)”可知，当他们在重要场合缺席时应该采取行动来帮助害羞的孩子。故选D项。
14、答案：D
解析：推理判断题。根据第三段“Chiappini recommended first saying something like: “You seem a little nervous or unsure about who everyone is/what to say . We haven’t met them before and that can feel a little uncomfortable.”(Chiappini建议先说这样的话：“你似乎有点紧张，或者不确定每个人都是谁/该说什么。我们以前没有见过他们，这可能会让人感到有点不舒服。”)”可知，Chiappini建议父母首先让他们的孩子明白他们知道他们的感受。故选D项。
15、答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据倒数第二段“The more we avoid situations where kids may feel shy, the more anxiety (担心) we will have about them in the future. But that doesn’t mean to push your child into the deep end.(我们越是避免让孩子感到害羞的情况，我们将来就会对他们感到越多的焦虑。但这并不意味着要把你的孩子推向深渊)”以及最后一段““We may have to deal with the situation step by step. For example, you may have to encourage your child just to make eye contact during an outing before expecting them to ask someone a question,” Chiappini said.(“我们可能不得不一步一步地处理这种情况。例如，你可能需要鼓励你的孩子在外出时进行眼神交流，然后再期待他们问别人问题，”Chiappini说)”可知，父母应该帮助孩子处理害羞的情况，并且需要一步一步地处理这种情况，所以父母应该耐心地引导害羞的孩子。故选C项。
16、答案：①-⑤DCAFG

④由该题位于此段的句尾，可知为总结该段内容或与上文内容相关。上文“When you fly off the handle, your parents have a hard time seeing your point of view. If you're angry or frustrated, take a break from the conversation. Excuse yourself, and go somewhere to cool off."（当你勃然大怒时，你的父母很难理解你的观点。如果你生气或沮丧，从谈话中休息一下。为自己找个借口，找个地方冷静冷静。）可知，讲的是调整好自己的情绪。结合选项F项Gather your thoughts and try talking to your parents again.（整理一下思绪，再试着和你的父母谈谈。）意思一致，为该段内容的总结。故选F项。
⑤根据该段标题Be brave.（要勇敢。）提到勇气。以及下文 "But your parents almost always can help you solve a problem or answer a big question, and you'll almost always feel better afterward." （但是你的父母几乎总是可以帮你解决一个问题或回答一个大问题，之后你几乎总是会感觉更好。）讲的是父母可以帮助你解决问题。结合选项G项You might have a question for long before you get up the courage to let it out.（在 你鼓起勇气说出来之前，你可能会有一个问题想了很久。）为上下文语意的衔接，起到上下文的承上启下作用，上下文语意连贯。故选G项。
