It all started with a simple question: “Can I paint your portrait ”
In the summer of 2015, Brian Peterson and his wife, Vanessa, had just moved to Santa Ana, California. Outside the couple’s fourth-floor apartment, a messy homeless man was often shouting on the street corner, sometimes keeping them awake at night. Peterson, 28, would pass the guy on his way to his job as a car designer at Kia Motors. but they never spoke.
One day, Peterson was relaxing in his living room, reading the book Love Does, about the power of love in action, when his quiet was disturbed by the homeless man. Inspired by the book’s sympathetic message. Peterson made an unexpected decision: He was going to go outside and introduce himself.
In that first conversation, Peterson learned that the man’s name was Matt Faris. He’d moved to Southern California from Kentucky to pursue a career in music, but he soon fell on hard times and ended up living on the street for more than a decade.
“It was the weirdest thing to me,” Peterson recalled later on the podcast (播客) Top Artist. “I saw beauty on the face of a man who hadn’t shaved in probably a year, had overgrown fingernails, and probably hadn’t had a shower in close to a year. But his story, the life inside of him, inspired me.” And even though Peterson, a graduate of the Cleveland Institute of Art, hadn’t picked up a paintbrush in about eight years, be found himself asking if he could paint Faris’s portrait. Faris said yes.
Peterson’s connection with Faris led to the creation of Faces of Santa Ana, a nonprofit organization that befriends and paints portraits of unhoused community members. Using a black-and-white photo taken with his phone, Peterson selects colors based on the subject’s personality and story, resulting in powerful portraits. He sells the large paintings, signed by both the subject and artist, for a few thousand dollars. Half of the profits go into a “love account” for the models. helping them start again. Faris used his portrait funds to fulfill his musical dreams by recording an album.
4. What is the purpose of the first paragraph
A. To explain the portrait. B. To express a request.
C. To ask a question. D. To introduce the topic.
5. How did Peterson feel when just arriving at his new home
A. Messy. B. Bothered. C. Delighted. D. Relaxed.
6. What does the underlined word “weirdest” in Paragraph 5 probably mean
A. Strangest. B. Hardest. C. Well known. D. Most beautiful.
7. What caused the foundation of Faces of Santa Ana
A. Peterson’s relation to Faris. B. Profits from selling paintings.
C. Colors based on the personality. D. Peterson’s powerful portraits.

It is calculated that some of the world’s 7,000 languages are in danger of getting extinct. “For example, Ainu, a language in Japan, is now seriously threatened, with only 10 native speakers remaining,“ said lead study author Tatsuya Amano at the University of Cambridge in England.
The scientists found that 25 percent of the world’s languages are threatened(威胁)．After identifying where the endangered(濒危的)languages were，they looked for any environmental and social or economic factors those languages might have in common, such as poor areas or rapid population growth. “We find that at the global scale, language speaker declines are strongly linked to economic growth-that is, declines are particularly occurring in economically developed regions,” said Amano.
“One important finding of this new study is that languages in the tropics and Himalayan region are likely to be increasingly threatened in the near future, because these regions still have many local languages with a small number of speakers, and at the same time are experiencing rapid economic growth,” said Amano.
Economic growth may endanger languages for a variety of reasons. For instance, speakers of endangered languages may view another more popular language as offering economic opportunities, and thus abandon their own languages. “There are other important factors that might endanger languages,” said the researchers. For instance, policies regarding how languages are used and taught in schools can be very different among countries and even within each country, and these factors may explain more detailed patterns in language endangerment.
Amano suggested it could be possible to forecast(预见)future threats to the diversity(多样化) of languages. “There exists detailed information on future changes in the environment， economies and climates(气候)，”Amano said. “Using such information，together with the findings of this study and further analysis, we would like to understand what will happen to the world’s languages, where it will happen and which languages will be threatened in particular.”
8. What can we know about Ainu
A. It has changed little over the years.
B. It threatens Japanese language.
C. It is a local language in Japan.
D. It is put under protection.
9. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. What should be taught in schools.
B. What might endanger a language.
C. How economic growth is achieved.
D. How a language becomes popular.
10. What does Amano mean in the last paragraph
A. We must take action to save the environment.
B More and more languages will get missing.
C. It will be easier to learn language changes.
D. Factors threatening languages will double.
11. What can be known from the study
A. Over 7,000 languages have been threatened.
B. Local language must be spoken in every school.
C. It is possible to use only one language worldwide.
D. The number of tropics’ local language speakers may become smaller in the future.
D
Coral reefs in Florida have lost an estimated 90% of their corals in the last 40 years. This summer, a marine heat wave hit Florida’s coral reefs. The record high temperatures created an extremely stressful environment for the coral reefs, which are currently also experiencing intense coral bleaching (白化).
A coral is an animal which has a symbiotic relationship with a microscopic algae (藻类). The algae gets energy from the sun and shares it with the coral internally. The coral builds a rock-like structure, which makes up most of the reef, providing homes and food for many organisms that live there. Coral bleaching is when the symbiotic relationship breaks down. Without the algae, the corals appear white because the rock skeleton becomes visible. If the bleaching continues for an extended period, the corals can starve to death without the energy.
Florida is on the front lines of climate change. It is also on the cutting edge of restoration science. Many labs, institutions and other organizations are working nonstop to protect and maintain the coral reefs. This includes efforts to understand what is troubling the reef, from disease outbreaks to coastal development impacts. It also includes harvesting coral spawn (卵), or growing and planting coral parts. Scientists moved many coral nurseries into deeper water and shore-based facilities during this marine heat wave. They are digging into the DNA of the coral to discover which species will survive best in future.
There are some bright spots in the story, however. Some corals have recovered from the bleaching, and many did not bleach at all. In addition, researchers recorded coral spawning. Although it’s not clear yet whether the larvae (幼虫) will be successful in the wild, it’s a sign of recovery potential. If the baby corals survive, they will be able to regrow the reef. They just have to avoid one big boss: human-induced climate change.
12. What does the underlined word “symbiotic” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Reliable. B. Opposite. C. Harmonious. D. Contradictory.
13. What caused the coral bleaching
A. The rock skeleton. B. The microscopic algae.
C. The high temperatures. D. The symbiotic relationship.
14. Which is not the efforts scientists made to help coral reefs
A. Transferring coral nurseries. B. Growing and planting coral spawn.
C. Researching the DNA of the coral. D. Figuring out the reasons for problems.
15. Which of the following best describes the impact of scientists’ efforts
A Identifiable. B. Predictable. C. Far-reaching. D. Effective.

Getting negative feedback never feels good. In fact, it pretty much always sucks. Even though it feels bad, constructive feedback is meant to help us grow and improve. Here are some strategies that can help you use negative feedback constructively, leading to positive change.
____16____ Your instinct may be to get upset or justify yourself instantly, but it’s important to remain as professional as possible in the moment. Even when your criticizer is factually wrong, the response “You’re wrong!” won’t ever be helpful. The key is to listen without planning your reply. Simply nod until the other person has completely finished.
Recognize the good intentions. Remember, the people who will give you tough feedback are the people who really care about your success. People who tell you only what they know you want to hear don’t really care about you.____17____
Don’t let it harm your confidence. Whatever you do, don’t allow negative feedback to destroy your self-esteem.____18____ Whatever went wrong won’t define you forever if you apply the feedback constructively and use it to your advantage.
Practice self-affirmation.____19____ It can be helpful to remind yourself of other aspects of your identity that are not in question to boost your confidence. For example, you could say: “Yes, my team thinks I’m a micromanager, but I can work on that, I am also a nice partner, committed volunteer and talented singer.’’
Set actionable goals. It can be helpful to break down the feedback into specific, actionable goals. ____20____ Set time to outline an action plan and timeline for each of these goals. With this, you can keep track of your progress and hold yourself accountable to your goals.
Though negative feedback may be disheartening, take the necessary steps to become an even better version of yourself.
A. Avoid reacting defensively.
B. Don’t take the feedback personally.
C. These can feel easier to work with and give you direction.
D. You don’t have to apply every piece of feedback you receive.
E. Negative feedback can sometimes make you feel like a failure.
F. It’s almost impossible to consistently do everything right all the time.
G. So instead of reacting negatively, thank those caring about you to give you honest feedback.

Jim stared at the ground and sighed in disappointment. Players from the opposing team raced past Jim, celebrating their shocking victory. They’d scored the game-winning goal just seconds before the end of the game.
“Just one word to describe a loss like that,” Jim mumbled to his teammate Devin.
“Terrible!” Devin sighed. “It was a tough one.” He trotted (小步快跑) toward the middle of the field to shake hands with the winning team. Jim walked slowly behind Devin. He unhappily slapped hands with the winners, then stopped to shut his eyes as the autumn air cooled his sweaty face.
“Terrible,” he repeated to himself as he sat on the bench and pulled his jacket on. “Let’s get some hot chocolate and watch the next game,” Devin said. There were eight teams in the YMCA league, so games would go on all morning. “Sorry. I’m heading home,” Jim said, “I’ve had enough soccer for today.”
As he reached the gate, Jim glanced back to see the next two teams take the field. They were jumping and shouting, excited to play. “That was us a little while ago, before we were discouraged.” Jim thought.
So why we lost the game at last Jim asked himself. How did such a well-played game end up with such a terrible result It was still clear in his head: Jim had the ball deep on the Jets’ side of the field, looking for Devin or another teammate to pass to. His team had outplayed the Jets for most of the game, but failed within the last seconds.
Jim let out a deep breath. The morning was growing warmer. Perfect for soccer. Jim looked back toward the field. He couldn’t see it, but he could hear the excited voices as the game continued.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。

In the summer of 2015, Brian Peterson and his wife, Vanessa, had just moved to Santa Ana, California. Outside the couple’s fourth-floor apartment, a messy homeless man was often shouting on the street corner, sometimes keeping them awake at night. Peterson, 28, would pass the guy on his way to his job as a car designer at Kia Motors. but they never spoke.
One day, Peterson was relaxing in his living room, reading the book Love Does, about the power of love in action, when his quiet was disturbed by the homeless man. Inspired by the book’s sympathetic message. Peterson made an unexpected decision: He was going to go outside and introduce himself.
In that first conversation, Peterson learned that the man’s name was Matt Faris. He’d moved to Southern California from Kentucky to pursue a career in music, but he soon fell on hard times and ended up living on the street for more than a decade.
“It was the weirdest thing to me,” Peterson recalled later on the podcast (播客) Top Artist. “I saw beauty on the face of a man who hadn’t shaved in probably a year, had overgrown fingernails, and probably hadn’t had a shower in close to a year. But his story, the life inside of him, inspired me.” And even though Peterson, a graduate of the Cleveland Institute of Art, hadn’t picked up a paintbrush in about eight years, be found himself asking if he could paint Faris’s portrait. Faris said yes.
Peterson’s connection with Faris led to the creation of Faces of Santa Ana, a nonprofit organization that befriends and paints portraits of unhoused community members. Using a black-and-white photo taken with his phone, Peterson selects colors based on the subject’s personality and story, resulting in powerful portraits. He sells the large paintings, signed by both the subject and artist, for a few thousand dollars. Half of the profits go into a “love account” for the models. helping them start again.

It is calculated that some of the world’s 7,000 languages are in danger of getting extinct. “For example, Ainu, a language in Japan, is now seriously threatened, with only 10 native speakers remaining,“ said lead study author Tatsuya Amano at the University of Cambridge in England.
The scientists found that 25 percent of the world’s languages are threatened(威胁)．After identifying where the endangered(濒危的)languages were，they looked for any environmental and social or economic factors those languages might have in common, such as poor areas or rapid population growth. “We find that at the global scale, language speaker declines are strongly linked to economic growth-that is, declines are particularly occurring in economically developed regions,” said Amano.
“One important finding of this new study is that languages in the tropics and Himalayan region are likely to be increasingly threatened in the near future, because these regions still have many local languages with a small number of speakers, and at the same time are experiencing rapid economic growth,” said Amano.
Economic growth may endanger languages for a variety of reasons. For instance, speakers of endangered languages may view another more popular language as offering economic opportunities, and thus abandon their own languages. “There are other important factors that might endanger languages,” said the researchers. For instance, policies regarding how languages are used and taught in schools can be very different among countries and even within each country, and these factors may explain more detailed patterns in language endangerment.
Amano suggested it could be possible to forecast(预见)future threats to the diversity(多样化) of languages. “There exists detailed information on future changes in the environment， economies and climates(气候)，”Amano said. “Using such information，together with the findings of this study and further analysis, we would like to understand what will happen to the world’s languages, where it will happen and which languages will be threatened in particular.”
8. What can we know about Ainu
A. It has changed little over the years.
B. It threatens Japanese language.
C. It is a local language in Japan.
D. It is put under protection.
9. What is paragraph 4 mainly about
A. What should be taught in schools.
B. What might endanger a language.
C. How economic growth is achieved.
D. How a language becomes popular.
10. What does Amano mean in the last paragraph
A. We must take action to save the environment.
B. More and more languages will get missing.
C. It will be easier to learn language changes.
D. Factors threatening languages will double.
11. What can be known from the study
A. Over 7,000 languages have been threatened.
B. Local language must be spoken in every school.
C. It is possible to use only one language worldwide.
D. The number of tropics’ local language speakers may become smaller in the future.
【答案】8. C 9. B 10. C 11. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了语言濒临灭绝的一些原因。
【8题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“For example, Ainu, a language in Japan, is now seriously threatened, with only 10 native speakers remaining,“ said lead study author Tatsuya Amano at the University of Cambridge in England.”（该研究的主要作者、英国剑桥大学的天野达也(Tatsuya Amano)说：“例如，日本的 Ainu，现在受到严重威胁，母语使用者仅剩10人。）可知， Ainu是日本的一种地方语言。故选C项。
【9题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第四段“Economic growth may endanger languages for a variety of reasons. For instance, speakers of endangered languages may view another more popular language as offering economic opportunities, and thus abandon their own languages. “There are other important factors that might endanger languages,” said the researchers. For instance, policies regarding how languages are used and taught in schools can be very different among countries and even within each country, and these factors may explain more detailed patterns in language endangerment.”（由于种种原因，经济增长可能危及语言。例如，说濒危语言的人可能认为另一种更流行的语言能提供经济机会，从而放弃自己的语言。研究人员说：“还有其他一些重要因素可能会危及语言。”例如，国家之间，甚至每个国家内部，关于如何在学校使用和教授语言的政策可能会有很大的不同，这些因素可以解释语言濒危的更详细的模式。）可知，本段的主要讲述经济发展、政府政策等多种因素会导致本土语言濒临消失，也就是什么可能危及一种语言。故选B项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中““Using such information，together with the findings of this study and further analysis, we would like to understand what will happen to the world’s languages, where it will happen and which languages will be threatened in particular.””（利用这些信息，结合这项研究的发现和进一步的分析，我们想了解世界上的语言会发生什么，会在哪里发生，特别是哪些语言会受到威胁。）可推知，Amano认为随着研究的深入，人们更容易知晓语言的变化。故选C项。
【11题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章大意以及第三段““One important finding of this new study is that languages in the tropics and Himalayan region are likely to be increasingly threatened in the near future, because these regions still have many local languages with a small number of speakers, and at the same time are experiencing rapid economic growth,” said Amano.”（Amano也说：“这项新研究的一个重要发现是，热带和喜马拉雅地区的语言在不久的将来可能会受到越来越大的威胁，因为这些地区仍然有许多当地语言，使用人数很少，与此同时，这些地区正在经历快速的经济增长。”）可推知，热带地区的语言在不久的将来可能受到越来越大的威胁，即说当地语言的人在未来可能会变少。故选D项。

Coral reefs in Florida have lost an estimated 90% of their corals in the last 40 years. This summer, a marine heat wave hit Florida’s coral reefs. The record high temperatures created an extremely stressful environment for the coral reefs, which are currently also experiencing intense coral bleaching (白化).
A coral is an animal, which has a symbiotic relationship with a microscopic algae (藻类). The algae gets energy from the sun and shares it with the coral internally. The coral builds a rock-like structure, which makes up most of the reef, providing homes and food for many organisms that live there. Coral bleaching is when the symbiotic relationship breaks down. Without the algae, the corals appear white because the rock skeleton becomes visible. If the bleaching continues for an extended period, the corals can starve to death without the energy.
Florida is on the front lines of climate change. It is also on the cutting edge of restoration science. Many labs, institutions and other organizations are working nonstop to protect and maintain the coral reefs. This includes efforts to understand what is troubling the reef, from disease outbreaks to coastal development impacts. It also includes harvesting coral spawn (卵), or growing and planting coral parts. Scientists moved many coral nurseries into deeper water and shore-based facilities during this marine heat wave. They are digging into the DNA of the coral to discover which species will survive best in future.
There are some bright spots in the story, however. Some corals have recovered from the bleaching, and many did not bleach at all. In addition, researchers recorded coral spawning. Although it’s not clear yet whether the larvae (幼虫) will be successful in the wild, it’s a sign of recovery potential. If the baby corals survive, they will be able to regrow the reef. They just have to avoid one big boss: human-induced climate change.
12. What does the underlined word “symbiotic” in paragraph 2 mean
A. Reliable. B. Opposite. C. Harmonious. D. Contradictory.
13. What caused the coral bleaching
A. The rock skeleton. B. The microscopic algae.
C. The high temperatures. D. The symbiotic relationship.
14. Which is not the efforts scientists made to help coral reefs
A. Transferring coral nurseries. B. Growing and planting coral spawn.
C. Researching the DNA of the coral. D. Figuring out the reasons for problems.
15. Which of the following best describes the impact of scientists’ efforts
A. Identifiable. B. Predictable. C. Far-reaching. D. Effective.
【答案】12. A 13. C 14. B 15. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要讲述了弗罗里达州的珊瑚礁因受高温天气影响而出现白化现象以及专家们为保护珊瑚礁所采取的措施。
【12题详解】
词义猜测题。根据第二段中划线词所在句的下文“The algae gets energy from the sun and shares it with the coral internally. The coral builds a rock-like structure, which makes up most of the reef, providing homes and food for many organisms that live there. (藻类从太阳获得能量，并在内部与珊瑚分享。珊瑚形成了一个岩石状的结构，构成了大部分的珊瑚礁，为生活在那里的许多生物提供了家园和食物。)”可知，珊瑚分享藻类从太阳获得能量，珊瑚礁为生活在那里的许多生物提供了家园和食物；因此，藻类与珊瑚之间是相互依存的共生关系；由此可知，划线词所在句子意为“珊瑚是一种动物，它与一种微小的藻类有共生关系”，因此划线词symbiotic表达的意思是“共生的，相互依赖的”，与reliable表达的意思一致。故选A。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“The record high temperatures created an extremely stressful environment for the coral reefs, which are currently also experiencing intense coral bleaching (白化).(创纪录的高温给珊瑚礁创造了一个极其紧张的环境，它们目前也在经历严重的珊瑚白化。)”可知，高温引起了珊瑚礁的白化现象。故选C。
【14题详解】
理解细节题。根据第三段中“Many labs, institutions and other organizations are working nonstop to protect and maintain the coral reefs. This includes efforts to understand what is troubling the reef, from disease outbreaks to coastal development impacts. It also includes harvesting coral spawn (卵), or growing and planting coral parts. Scientists moved many coral nurseries into deeper water and shore-based facilities during this marine heat wave. They are digging into the DNA of the coral to discover which species will survive best in future.(许多实验室、机构和其他组织都在不遗余力地保护和维护珊瑚礁。这包括努力了解是什么在困扰珊瑚礁，从疾病爆发到沿海发展的影响。它还包括收获珊瑚卵，或种植珊瑚枝节。在这次海洋热浪中，科学家们将许多珊瑚苗圃移到了更深的水域和海岸设施中。他们正在深入研究珊瑚的DNA，以发现哪些物种在未来存活得最好。)”可知，科学家们在不遗余力地保护和维护珊瑚礁，他们研究困扰珊瑚礁的因素、孵化珊瑚卵、种植珊瑚枝节、高温中把许多珊瑚苗圃移到了更深的水域和海岸设施中以及深入研究珊瑚的DNA以发现未来存活最好的物种；B选项“Growing and planting coral spawn.(种植珊瑚卵)”不是科学家所采取的保护措施。故选B。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“There are some bright spots in the story, however. Some corals have recovered from the bleaching, and many did not bleach at all. (然而，这个故事也有一些亮点。一些珊瑚已经从白化中恢复过来，许多珊瑚根本没有白化)”可知,经过科学家的努力，一些珊瑚已经从白化中恢复过来，许多珊瑚根本没有白化；由此可知，科学家们的努力有了成效。故选D。

Getting negative feedback never feels good. In fact, it pretty much always sucks. Even though it feels bad, constructive feedback is meant to help us grow and improve. Here are some strategies that can help you use negative feedback constructively, leading to positive change.
____16____ Your instinct may be to get upset or justify yourself instantly, but it’s important to remain as professional as possible in the moment. Even when your criticizer is factually wrong, the response “You’re wrong!” won’t ever be helpful. The key is to listen without planning your reply. Simply nod until the other person has completely finished.
Recognize the good intentions. Remember, the people who will give you tough feedback are the people who really care about your success. People who tell you only what they know you want to hear don’t really care about you.____17____
Don’t let it harm your confidence. Whatever you do, don’t allow negative feedback to destroy your self-esteem.____18____ Whatever went wrong won’t define you forever if you apply the feedback constructively and use it to your advantage.
Practice self-affirmation.____19____ It can be helpful to remind yourself of other aspects of your identity that are not in question to boost your confidence. For example, you could say: “Yes, my team thinks I’m a micromanager, but I can work on that, I am also a nice partner, committed volunteer and talented singer.’’
Set actionable goals. It can be helpful to break down the feedback into specific, actionable goals. ____20____ Set time to outline an action plan and timeline for each of these goals. With this, you can keep track of your progress and hold yourself accountable to your goals.
Though negative feedback may be disheartening, take the necessary steps to become an even better version of yourself.

B. Don’t take the feedback personally.
C. These can feel easier to work with and give you direction.
D. You don’t have to apply every piece of feedback you receive.

根据本段内容“Your instinct may be to get upset or justify yourself instantly, but it’s important to remain as professional as possible in the moment. Even when your criticizer is factually wrong, the response “You’re wrong!” won’t ever be helpful. The key is to listen without planning your reply. Simply nod until the other person has completely finished.(你的本能可能会让你心烦意乱，或者立刻为自己辩护，但在那一刻尽可能保持专业是很重要的。即使批评你的人实际上是错的，“你错了!”这句话不会有任何帮助。关键是倾听而不是计划你的回答。只要点头，直到对方完全说完)”可知，本段的主旨是避免在收到批评时，立刻为自己辩护，即防御性反应。故A选项“避免防御性的反应”符合语境，故选A。
【17题详解】
根据上文“Recognize the good intentions. Remember, the people who will give you tough feedback are the people who really care about your success. People who tell you only what they know you want to hear don’t really care about you.(认识到良好的意图。记住，给你严厉反馈的人是真正关心你成功的人。那些只告诉你他们知道你想听的话的人并不是真的关心你)”可知，上文提到了给你严厉反馈的人是真正关心你的人，故本句与上文构成因果关系，指出应该感谢这些人。故G选项“所以，与其消极地回应，不如感谢那些关心你的人给你诚实的反馈”符合语境，故选G。
【18题详解】
根据上文“Don’t let it harm your confidence. Whatever you do, don’t allow negative feedback to destroy your self-esteem.(不要让它伤害你的信心。无论你做什么，都不要让负面的反馈毁掉你的自尊)”以及后文“Whatever went wrong won’t define you forever if you apply the feedback constructively and use it to your advantage.(如果你建设性地运用反馈并将其转化为你的优势，那么无论什么错误都不会永远定义你)”可知，上文提到了无论做什么，都不要让负面反馈毁掉你的自尊，故本句说明负面反馈时有发生，故F选项“始终如一地做好每件事几乎是不可能的”符合语境，故选F。
【19题详解】
根据上文“Practice self-affirmation.(实践自我肯定)”以及后文“It can be helpful to remind yourself of other aspects of your identity that are not in question to boost your confidence. For example, you could say: “Yes, my team thinks I’m a micromanager, but I can work on that, I am also a nice partner, committed volunteer and talented singer.’’(提醒自己其他没有问题的方面会对增强自信很有帮助。例如，你可以说：“是的，我的团队认为我是一个微观管理者，但我可以改进，我也是一个很好的合作伙伴，忠诚的志愿者和有才华的歌手。”)”可知，后文主要说明了从其他方面肯定自己的能力，可推测本句是在说明负面反馈带来的负面影响。故E选项“负面反馈有时会让你觉得自己很失败”符合语境，故选E。
【20题详解】
根据上文“Set actionable goals. It can be helpful to break down the feedback into specific, actionable goals.(设定可行的目标。将反馈分解成具体的、可操作的目标是很有帮助的)”可知，本句承接上文，说明设定目标的作用，C选项中These指代上文goals。故C选项“他们会让你感觉更容易相处，给你指明方向”符合语境，故选C。

第四部分 书面表达(满分15分，卷面书写3分，内容12分)
66. 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。
Jim stared at the ground and sighed in disappointment. Players from the opposing team raced past Jim, celebrating their shocking victory. They’d scored the game-winning goal just seconds before the end of the game.
“Just one word to describe a loss like that,” Jim mumbled to his teammate Devin.
“Terrible!” Devin sighed. “It was a tough one.” He trotted (小步快跑) toward the middle of the field to shake hands with the winning team. Jim walked slowly behind Devin. He unhappily slapped hands with the winners, then stopped to shut his eyes as the autumn air cooled his sweaty face.
“Terrible,” he repeated to himself as he sat on the bench and pulled his jacket on. “Let’s get some hot chocolate and watch the next game,” Devin said. There were eight teams in the YMCA league, so games would go on all morning. “Sorry. I’m heading home,” Jim said, “I’ve had enough soccer for today.”
As he reached the gate, Jim glanced back to see the next two teams take the field. They were jumping and shouting, excited to play. “That was us a little while ago, before we were discouraged.” Jim thought.
So why we lost the game at last Jim asked himself. How did such a well-played game end up with such a terrible result It was still clear in his head: Jim had the ball deep on the Jets’ side of the field, looking for Devin or another teammate to pass to. His team had outplayed the Jets for most of the game, but failed within the last seconds.
Jim let out a deep breath. The morning was growing warmer. Perfect for soccer. Jim looked back toward the field. He couldn’t see it, but he could hear the excited voices as the game continued.

___________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
【答案】One possible version:
With a car’s horn beeping, Jim’s friends Tara and Bryan jumped out of the car. “How did you do ” Tara asked eagerly. “Terrible!” Jim replied in a down tone, still trying to figure out how the opposing team scored the game — winning goal just seconds before the end of the game. Bryan patted Jim’s shoulder asking, “Is winning the game the only reason why you play soccer and what really matters when playing a game ” Hearing this, Jim didn’t want to go home but decided to follow his friends and watch their game.
There came the turn for Tara and Bryan’s team to play the game. Jim watched with full attention as Tara’s team played fiercely against their opposing team. What impressed him most was that all the players in Tara’s team cooperated perfectly with unwavering resolve on their faces. Even when they were in a tie with the opponent, they stayed positive and confident. It dawned on Jim that success doesn’t always depend on the end result, but rather on how we face adversity and grow from it.
