Eddie, Aged 16
Being yourself is one important thing you have to remember when going to senior high school. I don’t know what your junior high school was like, but senior high school teachers will not care about such things as how much homework you have already finished in one night. It means that you had better learn to manage your time wisely.
Frank, Aged 16
I think almost every kid feels both nervous and excited before their first day. You’ll probably love it. I know I did. You should join some clubs where you can meet people with the same interests. And taking part in some outdoor activities will also help to make your senior high school experience more enjoyable. Good luck!
Bill, Aged 15
When I began senior high school I was really nervous, especially since I had been taught at home all through junior high school. I think the best advice is that you should relax. The first couple of days can be a little bit hard, but things will become easier before you know it.
James, Aged 16
I have to tell you the truth that the first day of my senior high school is kind of frightening. But you’ll get used to it soon. Don’t be afraid of anyone. Just take it easy. It really helps if you make some friends and stay with them. After the first week, you’ll feel better. Don’t worry.

At most schools in the U. S., it’s customary to have a cheer squad (啦啦队) to support athletics. Cheerleaders drum up excitement before games, put on jaw—dropping routines at games, and provide support on the sidelines of most events. But students who participate in performing and visual arts seldom receive the same displays of support as athletes do. A group of students at Mountain View High School in Orem, Utah, decided to change that fact by creating a cheer squad just for the arts.
Their school’s athletics cheer squad is called the Bruin Crazies, so they named their artistic cheer squad the Bruin Classies! This is a new brand with which they could create something for all of the arts, whether it is band, dance show, photography and art galleries—to give them some publicity and cheer them on.
Classies wear a “uniform” of bow ties to indicate the “sense of class”artistic efforts bring their school. They carry around signs to advertise the upcoming play, musical, or dance performance. Hoping to drum up ticket sales, they encourage their fellow students to come out to support the hard work of others. They also attend performances and displays at school to cheer their classmates on.
After years of discussion to make a cheer squad for the arts, this is the first time they’ve been able to pull it off. More than 90 students have already signed up to be a Bruin Classy! “The students have poured their time and energy into their arts, and it is worthy to be celebrated. ”Caleb Stay, the cheer squad leader, said, “If you worked really hard on something and no one showed up, it would be disappointing. We just want to make sure that no one feels that way. ”
This is such an amazing idea! We can’t believe no one has come up with it before, but hopefully these thoughtful teens have started a new trend to support the arts in other schools, too.
4. Why did the students in Mountain View high school set up the Bruin Classies
A. To support the arts in their schoo1. B. To compete with the Bruin Crazies.
C. To participate in the art performing. D. To cheer the athletes on in the games.
5. How do Classies make the art performances appealing to students at school

Students from Taizhou Middle School, Jiangsu Province, experience farming during their labor course. As we all know, the life skills like cooking and painting are important and should be taught as part of labor education.
On June 3, 2020, the Ministry of Education ( MOE) gave a document showing the revised curriculum (修改后的方案) for senior high schools across the country. Labor education includes housework, school labor and community voluntary services and so on.
“Labor education must be carried out with the purpose to make the right view of the world, life and values and develop an interest in doing chores,” said Vice-Minister of Education Zheng Fuzhi.
According to China Youth Daily, the labor course will take six credits (学分)—the same as foreign language and physics. Voluntary service, as part of labor education, would take two credits. The MOE also asks schools to make sure 40 hours of voluntary service during the full three school years.
According to Xinhua, adding labor education was out of care that the country’s young people do too little housework and that they think labor jobs aren’t important. Because of a lot of school pressure, schools pay more attention to the course of education, and parents may think that the chores waste their kids’ time.
According to a survey, middle school students in China only spend 12 minutes a day on chores, compared with 72 minutes in the US, 42 minutes in South Korea and 30 minutes in France.
However, doing housework does not distract young people. Instead, they are necessary for developing a strong working spirit, according to Julie Lythcott-Haims, the writer of How to Raise an Adult. “The earlier you started, the better…”, he said.
8. If you , you can get the credit s of the labor course.
A. do volunteer work B. do homework C. learn to drive a car D. go traveling
9. What did Zheng Fuzhi talk about
A. The time to carry out labor education. B. The way to carry out labor education.
C. The place to carry out labor education. D. The purpose to carry out labor education.
10. Who spend the most time on housework
A. Students in China. B. Students in South Korea.
C. Students in America. D. Students in France.
11. In which column of a newspaper may we read this passage
A. Health. B. Education. C. Sports. D. Art.
【答案】8. A 9. D 10. C 11. B
【解析】
【导语】本文为一篇新闻报道，报道了全国高中修订后的课程包括了劳动教育，劳动教育是培养强大的工作精神所必需的部分。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第四段“According to China Youth Daily, the labor course will take six credits (学分)—the same as foreign language and physics. Voluntary service, as part of labor education, would take two credits.(据《中国青年报》报道，劳动课程将获得6个学分，与外语和物理相同。志愿服务，作为劳动教育的一部分，将占两个学分)”可知，如果做志愿者工作，你可以获得劳动课的学分。故选A项。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段““Labor education must be carried out with the purpose to make the right view of the world, life and values and develop an interest in doing chores,” said Vice-Minister of Education Zheng Fuzhi.(教育部副部长郑富芝表示:“劳动教育必须以培养正确的世界观、人生观和价值观为目的，培养干家务的兴趣。”)”可知，郑富芝谈论了开展劳动教育的目的。故选D项。
【10题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章倒数第二段“According to a survey, middle school students in China only spend 12 minutes a day on chores, compared with 72 minutes in the US, 42 minutes in South Korea and 30 minutes in France.(一项调查显示，中国中学生每天只花12分钟做家务，而美国为72分钟，韩国为42分钟，法国为30分钟)”可知，美国学生花在家务上的时间最长。故选C项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“Students from Taizhou Middle School, Jiangsu Province, experience farming during their labor course. As we all know, the life skills like cooking and painting are important and should be taught as part of labor education.(来自江苏省泰州中学的学生们在他们的劳动课程中体验农业。我们都知道，烹饪和绘画等生活技能很重要，应该作为劳动教育的一部分来教授)”及全文内容可以推断，本文主要讲了关于劳动教育的内容，因此，出自报纸的教育专栏。故选B项。

“Why do people enjoy saying that they are bad at math ” wonders Petra Bonfert, a professor of engineering at Dartmouth College. After seeing too many examples of adults “passing on mathematical anxiety like a virus,” Bonfert has an important message for math-phobic parents and educators: “We are passing on from generation to generation the fear for mathematics.”
Many people hold the view that math is inherently hard, and only people with an inborn mathematical ability can understand it. While well-meaning adults may think they’re encouraging kids by sharing their own math fears, research has shown the opposite. Research has found that the problem is particularly significant for girls, who “are especially affected when a teacher publicly announces math hatred before she picks up the chalk.” Moreover, a study published recently reported that female mathematical achievement was diminished in response to a female teacher’s mathematical anxiety. The effect was correlated: the higher a teacher’s anxiety, the lower the scores.”
Parents’ anxiety about math can have a similar effect on kids’ achievement and their attitude toward the subject. Children who received math homework help from mathematically fearful parents showed weaker math achievements than their peers, which in turn resulted in increased math anxiety for the children themselves. New research on math anxiety confirms that these parents unintentionally teach kids to expect that math will be beyond their capabilities.
Fortunately, Sian Beilock, a cognitive scientist of Barnard College, has found a surprisingly easy way for parents to stop passing on math anxiety and build their children’s math confidence. The most important finding is the importance of normalizing math at home in a way that’s relaxing and playful: from using math-themed books and stories, playing with math games and toys to cooking together. He argues that we need to teach kids that “working on mathematical skills is not unlike practicing a sport. Neither can be learned by watching others perform the activity and both require encouragement and effort. You do not need an inborn mathematical ability in order to solve mathematical problems. Rather, what is required is perseverance, a willingness to take risks and feeling safe to make mistakes.
12. Why do some people share their math fear with kids
A. To expect kids to learn from their mistake. B. To prove only geniuses can learn it well.
C. To give encouragement to their kids. D. To stress the importance of genetic factors.
13. What does the underlined word “diminished” mean
A. Decreased. B. Measured. C. Improved. D. Influenced.
14. What can be learned from the last paragraph
A. Normalizing maths at home is relaxing and full of fun.
B. Having an inborn math ability is essential to children.
C. Developing mathematical skills differs from doing a sport.
D. Encouragement and efforts help yield math learning success.
15. What’s the main idea of the text
A. Math-phobic adults are to blame for math failure.
B. Math anxiety is nothing to be afraid of at all.
C. Parents and teachers pass on math fear to kids.
D. Risks and mistakes are what success takes.
【答案】12. C 13. A 14. D 15. C
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了虽然善意的成年人可能认为，他们分享自己对数学的恐惧是在鼓励孩子，但研究表明，事实恰恰相反。研究指出父母或者老师对数学的焦虑可能会对孩子的成绩和他们对数学的态度产生类似的影响。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“While well-meaning adults may think they’re encouraging kids by sharing their own math fears, research has shown the opposite.(虽然善意的成年人可能认为，他们分享自己对数学的恐惧是在鼓励孩子，但研究表明，事实恰恰相反)”可知，有些人会和孩子们分享他们对数学的恐惧是为了鼓励他们的孩子。故选C。
【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据画线词上文“a study published recently reported that female mathematical achievement was”以及后文“in response to a female teacher’s mathematical anxiety. The effect was correlated: the higher a teacher’s anxiety, the lower the scores.”可知，这种影响是相关的：老师越焦虑，分数就越低，所以可以得知最近发表的一项研究报告称，女教师的数学焦虑会降低女性的数学成绩。故画线词意思是“降低”。A. Decreased.减少，降低；B. Measured.测量；C. Improved.改善；D. Influenced.影响。故选A。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“Neither can be learned by watching others perform the activity and both require encouragement and effort.(这两种方法都不能通过观看别人的表演来学习，都需要鼓励和努力)”可知，鼓励和努力有助于数学学习的成功。故选D。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第一段中“After seeing too many examples of adults “passing on mathematical anxiety like a virus,” Bonfert has an important message for math-phobic parents and educators: “We are passing on from generation to generation the fear for mathematics.”(在看到太多成年人“将数学焦虑像病毒一样传播”的例子后，邦弗特向患有数学恐惧症的父母和教育者传达了一条重要信息：“我们正在将对数学的恐惧一代一代地传递下去。”)”以及最后一段中“Fortunately, Sian Beilock, a cognitive scientist of Barnard College, has found a surprisingly easy way for parents to stop passing on math anxiety and build their children’s math confidence.(幸运的是，巴纳德学院的认知科学家Sian Beilock发现了一种非常简单的方法，可以让父母停止传递数学焦虑，并帮助孩子建立数学自信)”结合文章主要说明了虽然善意的成年人可能认为，他们分享自己对数学的恐惧是在鼓励孩子，但研究表明，事实恰恰相反。研究指出父母或者老师对数学的焦虑可能会对孩子的成绩和他们对数学的态度产生类似的影响。可知，文章的主旨是父母和老师把对数学的恐惧传递给孩子。故选C。

57. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A 12-year-old boy saw something in a shop window that set his heart racing. It was a jewel box. But the price—five dollars—was far beyond Reuben Earle’s means. However, he opened the door and went inside. Standing proud and straight, he told the shopkeeper what he wanted, adding, “But I don’t have the money right now. Can you please hold it for me for some time ”
“I’ll try,” the shopkeeper smiled.
“I will raise the five dollars and not tell anybody,” Reuben said to himself.
Hearing the sound of hammering from a side street, Reuben had an idea. People built their own homes in Bay Roberts, using nails purchased in sacks (麻布袋) from a local factory. Sometimes the sacks were abandoned, and Reuben knew he could sell them back to the factory for five cents a piece.
That day he found two sacks and sold to the man in charge of packing nails.
The boy’s hand tightly held the five-cent pieces as he ran home. Near his house stood the ancient barn (谷仓). Reuben found a soda tin and dropped his coins inside. Then he climbed into the top of the barn and hid the tin.
All summer long, despite housework at home Reuben kept to his secret task. Often he was cold, tired and hungry, but the thought of the object in the shop window sustained him.
Mother’s Day had come! He uncovered the tin can, poured the coins out and began to count. He needed 20 cents more. He had to find four more sacks and sell them before the day ended.
Towards evening Reuben arrived at the factory. The sack buyer was about to lock up.
“Mister! Please don’t close up yet.”
The man turned and saw Reuben, dirty and sweat stained.
“Come back tomorrow, boy.”
“Please, Mister. I have to sell the sacks now — please.”
注意：
1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右;
2.续写部分分为两段，每段开头语已为你写好。
Paragraph 1:
The man heard a slight shake in Reuben’s voice and could tell he was close to tears.

Paragraph 2:
Then he placed the parcel(包裹) in Reuben’s hands.
___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】The man heard a slight shake in Reuben’s voice and could tell he was close to tears. “Why do you need this money so badly ” “It’s a secret.” The man took the sacks, reached into his pocket and put four coins in Reuben’s hand. Reuben murmured a thank you and ran home. Then, holding the tin can in his hand, he headed for the shop. “I have the money.” he told the owner proudly. The man went to the window and fetched Reuben’s treasure. He wiped the dust off and gently wrapped it in brown paper.
Then he placed the parcel(包裹)in Reuben’s hands. Racing home, Reuben burst through the front door. “Here, Mum! Here!” Reuben exclaimed as he ran to her excitedly. Then he placed a small box in her work roughened hand. Mum unwrapped it carefully. A blue-velvet jewel box appeared. Mum gently lifted the lid, with tears welling up in her eyes. She had never received such a precious gift. A smile flashing across her face, she held Reuben tightly in her arms.

Eddie, Aged 16
Being yourself is one important thing you have to remember when going to senior high school. I don’t know what your junior high school was like, but senior high school teachers will not care about such things as how much homework you have already finished in one night. It means that you had better learn to manage your time wisely.
Frank, Aged 16
I think almost every kid feels both nervous and excited before their first day. You’ll probably love it. I know I did. You should join some clubs where you can meet people with the same interests. And taking part in some outdoor activities will also help to make your senior high school experience more enjoyable. Good luck!
Bill, Aged 15
When I began senior high school I was really nervous, especially since I had been taught at home all through junior high school. I think the best advice is that you should relax. The first couple of days can be a little bit hard, but things will become easier before you know it.
James, Aged 16
I have to tell you the truth that the first day of my senior high school is kind of frightening. But you’ll get used to it soon. Don’t be afraid of anyone. Just take it easy. It really helps if you make some friends and stay with them. After the first week, you’ll feel better. Don’t worry.
1. According to Frank, how can you make your senior high school life enjoyable
A. By making many friends.
B. By talking with your teachers.
C. By joining clubs and taking part in activities.
D. By meeting people with the different interests.
2. How did Bill feel on his first day of senior high school
A. Nervous. B. Bored. C. Easy. D. Excited.
3. Who mentioned the importance of friends
A. Eddie. B. Frank. C. Bill. D. James.

At most schools in the U. S., it’s customary to have a cheer squad (啦啦队) to support athletics. Cheerleaders drum up excitement before games, put on jaw—dropping routines at games, and provide support on the sidelines of most events. But students who participate in performing and visual arts seldom receive the same displays of support as athletes do. A group of students at Mountain View High School in Orem, Utah, decided to change that fact by creating a cheer squad just for the arts.
Their school’s athletics cheer squad is called the Bruin Crazies, so they named their artistic cheer squad the Bruin Classies! This is a new brand with which they could create something for all of the arts, whether it is band, dance show, photography and art galleries—to give them some publicity and cheer them on.
Classies wear a “uniform” of bow ties to indicate the “sense of class”artistic efforts bring their school. They carry around signs to advertise the upcoming play, musical, or dance performance. Hoping to drum up ticket sales, they encourage their fellow students to come out to support the hard work of others. They also attend performances and displays at school to cheer their classmates on.
After years of discussion to make a cheer squad for the arts, this is the first time they’ve been able to pull it off. More than 90 students have already signed up to be a Bruin Classy! “The students have poured their time and energy into their arts, and it is worthy to be celebrated. ”Caleb Stay, the cheer squad leader, said, “If you worked really hard on something and no one showed up, it would be disappointing. We just want to make sure that no one feels that way. ”
This is such an amazing idea! We can’t believe no one has come up with it before, but hopefully these thoughtful teens have started a new trend to support the arts in other schools, too.
4. Why did the students in Mountain View high school set up the Bruin Classies
A. To support the arts in their schoo1. B. To compete with the Bruin Crazies.
C. To participate in the art performing. D. To cheer the athletes on in the games.
5. How do Classies make the art performances appealing to students at school
A. By offering free tickets to students.
B By popularizing the art performances.
C. By inviting students to attend performances.
D. By wearing a special uniform for art festivals.
6. What can be inferred from Caleb Stay’s words
A. More students will sign up the Bruin Classy.
B. Few students like to attend the art performance.
C. The artistic cheer squad will become a new trend.
D. The students’artistic efforts deserve to be admired.
7. What is the best title of the text
A. Move over, “Crazies,” the “Classies” are here
B. “Crazies” keep up, never give in to “Classies”
C. The Bruin Crazies, a “uniform” of bow ties
D. The Bruin Crazies, a big hit in Orem, Utah
C
Students from Taizhou Middle School, Jiangsu Province, experience farming during their labor course. As we all know, the life skills like cooking and painting are important and should be taught as part of labor education.
On June 3, 2020, the Ministry of Education ( MOE) gave a document showing the revised curriculum (修改后的方案) for senior high schools across the country. Labor education includes housework, school labor and community voluntary services and so on.
“Labor education must be carried out with the purpose to make the right view of the world, life and values and develop an interest in doing chores,” said Vice-Minister of Education Zheng Fuzhi.
According to China Youth Daily, the labor course will take six credits (学分)—the same as foreign language and physics. Voluntary service, as part of labor education, would take two credits. The MOE also asks schools to make sure 40 hours of voluntary service during the full three school years.
According to Xinhua, adding labor education was out of care that the country’s young people do too little housework and that they think labor jobs aren’t important. Because of a lot of school pressure, schools pay more attention to the course of education, and parents may think that the chores waste their kids’ time.
According to a survey, middle school students in China only spend 12 minutes a day on chores, compared with 72 minutes in the US, 42 minutes in South Korea and 30 minutes in France.
However, doing housework does not distract young people. Instead, they are necessary for developing a strong working spirit, according to Julie Lythcott-Haims, the writer of How to Raise an Adult. “The earlier you started, the better…”, he said.

“Why do people enjoy saying that they are bad at math ” wonders Petra Bonfert, a professor of engineering at Dartmouth College. After seeing too many examples of adults “passing on mathematical anxiety like a virus,” Bonfert has an important message for math-phobic parents and educators: “We are passing on from generation to generation the fear for mathematics.”
Many people hold the view that math is inherently hard, and only people with an inborn mathematical ability can understand it. While well-meaning adults may think they’re encouraging kids by sharing their own math fears, research has shown the opposite. Research has found that the problem is particularly significant for girls, who “are especially affected when a teacher publicly announces math hatred before she picks up the chalk.” Moreover, a study published recently reported that female mathematical achievement was diminished in response to a female teacher’s mathematical anxiety. The effect was correlated: the higher a teacher’s anxiety, the lower the scores.”
Parents’ anxiety about math can have a similar effect on kids’ achievement and their attitude toward the subject. Children who received math homework help from mathematically fearful parents showed weaker math achievements than their peers, which in turn resulted in increased math anxiety for the children themselves. New research on math anxiety confirms that these parents unintentionally teach kids to expect that math will be beyond their capabilities.
Fortunately, Sian Beilock, a cognitive scientist of Barnard College, has found a surprisingly easy way for parents to stop passing on math anxiety and build their children’s math confidence. The most important finding is the importance of normalizing math at home in a way that’s relaxing and playful: from using math-themed books and stories, playing with math games and toys to cooking together. He argues that we need to teach kids that “working on mathematical skills is not unlike practicing a sport. Neither can be learned by watching others perform the activity and both require encouragement and effort. You do not need an inborn mathematical ability in order to solve mathematical problems. Rather, what is required is perseverance, a willingness to take risks and feeling safe to make mistakes.
12. Why do some people share their math fear with kids
A. To expect kids to learn from their mistake. B. To prove only geniuses can learn it well.
C. To give encouragement to their kids. D. To stress the importance of genetic factors.
13. What does the underlined word “diminished” mean
A. Decreased. B. Measured. C. Improved. D. Influenced.
14. What can be learned from the last paragraph
A. Normalizing maths at home is relaxing and full of fun.
B Having an inborn math ability is essential to children.
C. Developing mathematical skills differs from doing a sport.
D. Encouragement and efforts help yield math learning success.
15. What’s the main idea of the text
A. Math-phobic adults are to blame for math failure.
B. Math anxiety is nothing to be afraid of at all.
C. Parents and teachers pass on math fear to kids.
D. Risks and mistakes are what success takes.

57. 阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
A 12-year-old boy saw something in a shop window that set his heart racing. It was a jewel box. But the price—five dollars—was far beyond Reuben Earle’s means. However, he opened the door and went inside. Standing proud and straight, he told the shopkeeper what he wanted, adding, “But I don’t have the money right now. Can you please hold it for me for some time ”
“I’ll try,” the shopkeeper smiled.
“I will raise the five dollars and not tell anybody,” Reuben said to himself.
Hearing the sound of hammering from a side street, Reuben had an idea. People built their own homes in Bay Roberts, using nails purchased in sacks (麻布袋) from a local factory. Sometimes the sacks were abandoned, and Reuben knew he could sell them back to the factory for five cents a piece.
That day he found two sacks and sold to the man in charge of packing nails.
The boy’s hand tightly held the five-cent pieces as he ran home. Near his house stood the ancient barn (谷仓). Reuben found a soda tin and dropped his coins inside. Then he climbed into the top of the barn and hid the tin.
All summer long, despite housework at home Reuben kept to his secret task. Often he was cold, tired and hungry, but the thought of the object in the shop window sustained him.
Mother’s Day had come! He uncovered the tin can, poured the coins out and began to count. He needed 20 cents more. He had to find four more sacks and sell them before the day ended.
Towards evening Reuben arrived at the factory. The sack buyer was about to lock up.
“Mister! Please don’t close up yet.”
The man turned and saw Reuben, dirty and sweat stained.
“Come back tomorrow, boy.”
“Please, Mister. I have to sell the sacks now — please.”
注意：
1.所续写短文的词数应为150左右;
2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头语已为你写好。

The man heard a slight shake in Reuben’s voice and could tell he was close to tears.
