When I was thirteen years old, I became very interested in shopping. After a while being just a buyer, I wanted to sell something. I had many things around the house from my childhood that I no longer needed. I knew, with the help of my father, I could make money. So far months and months I enjoyed myself by selling things on my dad’s account (账户).
On December 9, 2020, I opened my own account and began to start my own business. Things were going great and then I realized that selling things around house wasn’t making me the kind of money that I wanted to make, so I decided to turn my business into a resale shop. I went around to the garage sale (旧货出售处) and bought items at low prices and sold them at higher prices.
Last November, I went to a garage sale that was a little bit different. A single lady had many nice items that I knew I would sell quickly. I went up to her and started a conversation with her. Through the conversation, I knew she was jobless at the moment and needed money to support her family. I decided to sell any of her things for her to help her out. She looked at me for a moment and then broke into tears. I took away some of her things and over the next month I made over $1,500 for her! She was so thankful for all of my help.
I have never felt so happy to help someone in my life. I felt as if I had made a difference in this world and that my skills could be used to help someone who would really need it.

As you grow rapidly through your teenage years, you will experience a lot of changes. The changes may seem difficult and they may seem to happen quickly. Don’t panic! You will deal successfully with them! You are a young adult now!
With more responsibility, you will find more freedom to make your own choices. This is a time to be well informed about your choices so that you can make healthy balanced decisions that will help shape your future. You may already know your career path or you may have no idea at all what you want to do. Both situations are fine! Work hard and the right opportunity will present itself to you.
Young adulthood means greater freedom and more choices. You will probably want to be independent. But try not to shut your family out of your life. You should learn to think of others even though you are old enough to look after yourself. Your family have been with you since you came into this world.
It is also perfectly natural in this time for you to spend more time with your friends than your family. Choose your friends wisely. A true friend will stand by you no matter what happens.
This period is part of the life cycle. There are some people who will be with you throughout life’s journey and there will be some people with whom you part and go separate ways. Leaving school can be hard. The reality is that you may not ever see all of your classmates again.
You are a young adult. It is your life. No one can live it for you. The choices that you make from now on will be your choices. So making the right choices will be important to you. Life is for living. Enjoy your life wisely!
8. The best title for this passage would be ________.
A The Choices in Life B. The Key to Success
C Say Goodbye to the Past D. Becoming a Young Adult
9. Who do the underlined words “some people” (Paragraph 5) probably mean
A. your parents. B. your deskmates.
C. true friends. D. your relatives.
10. The author thinks teenage years are ________.
A. a period of complete freedom
B. too hard for young people to get through

A. Teenagers. B. Teachers. C. Young parents. D. Adults.
D
Have you ever imagined that your simple T-shirt could cool you down by up to 5℃ on these hot summer days Thanks to a recent discovery, the possibility is getting closer. While there are many alternatives that manage to keep the body warm, this amazing invention aims to offer real relief for those who are eager to feel comfortable and fresh in the outdoors on extremely hot days.
Its inventors, engineers Ma Yaoguang of Zhejiang University and Tao Guangming of Huazhong University of Science and Technology in China, took a completely innovative approach. They designed a special textile (纺织物) that can absorb body heat and reemit (重发出) its energy into space as mid-infrared radiation (MIR). This textile cools both the objects and their surroundings through a technique that is known as radiative cooling. Science reveals. This means that even when it looks like you are wearing a regular shirt, you are actually wearing a device that works like a mirror.
Research conducted at Stanford University in 2017 had already managed to cool the wearer by 3℃, but this previous trial was limited. So researchers still need to test the new approach to determine how effectively the new fabric cools while the wearers are standing or walking, and not directly facing the sky, like in their trials. They also need to examine and measure how well it works when T-shirts are no in close contact with the skin.
Inventors Yaoguang and Guangming are now looking out for textile manufacturers and clothing brands that are interested in using their fabric. They estimate that the new material will increase clothing manufacturing costs by just 10 percent. “We can make it with mass production, which means everybody can get a T-shirt and the cost is basically the same as their old stuff,” Yaoguang said.
So if you are an athlete or simply someone that has to deal with the extremely high temperatures, be patient because your days of feeling hot and bothered may be coming to an end!
12. What is the purpose of the new invention
A. To keep people warm. B. To help beat the heat in hot weather.
C. To find out the wearers’ temperature. D. To protect clothes from becoming wet.
13. How does the special product work
A. By sending out absorbed heat. B. By turning sunlight into energy.
C. By keeping heat out completely. D. By using light colors to reflect sunlight.
14. What is the main idea of paragraph 3
A. The invention needs further testing. B. The studies in 2017 lack evidence.
C. The new textile has a good cooling effect. D. The new textile applies to various situations.
15. What’s the author’s attitude towards the invention
A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Supportive. D. Indifferent.

As you grow rapidly through your teenage years, you will experience a lot of changes. The changes may seem difficult and they may seem to happen quickly. Don’t panic! You will deal successfully with them! You are a young adult now!

Young adulthood means greater freedom and more choices. You will probably want to be independent. But try not to shut your family out of your life. You should learn to think of others even though you are old enough to look after yourself. Your family have been with you since you came into this world.
It is also perfectly natural in this time for you to spend more time with your friends than your family. Choose your friends wisely. A true friend will stand by you no matter what happens.
This period is part of the life cycle. There are some people who will be with you throughout life’s journey and there will be some people with whom you part and go separate ways. Leaving school can be hard. The reality is that you may not ever see all of your classmates again.
You are a young adult. It is your life. No one can live it for you. The choices that you make from now on will be your choices. So making the right choices will be important to you. Life is for living. Enjoy your life wisely!

Have you ever imagined that your simple T-shirt could cool you down by up to 5℃ on these hot summer days Thanks to a recent discovery, the possibility is getting closer. While there are many alternatives that manage to keep the body warm, this amazing invention aims to offer real relief for those who are eager to feel comfortable and fresh in the outdoors on extremely hot days.
Its inventors, engineers Ma Yaoguang of Zhejiang University and Tao Guangming of Huazhong University of Science and Technology in China, took a completely innovative approach. They designed a special textile (纺织物) that can absorb body heat and reemit (重发出) its energy into space as mid-infrared radiation (MIR). This textile cools both the objects and their surroundings through a technique that is known as radiative cooling. Science reveals. This means that even when it looks like you are wearing a regular shirt, you are actually wearing a device that works like a mirror.
Research conducted at Stanford University in 2017 had already managed to cool the wearer by 3℃, but this previous trial was limited. So researchers still need to test the new approach to determine how effectively the new fabric cools while the wearers are standing or walking, and not directly facing the sky, like in their trials. They also need to examine and measure how well it works when T-shirts are no in close contact with the skin.
Inventors Yaoguang and Guangming are now looking out for textile manufacturers and clothing brands that are interested in using their fabric. They estimate that the new material will increase clothing manufacturing costs by just 10 percent. “We can make it with mass production, which means everybody can get a T-shirt and the cost is basically the same as their old stuff,” Yaoguang said.
So if you are an athlete or simply someone that has to deal with the extremely high temperatures, be patient because your days of feeling hot and bothered may be coming to an end!
12. What is the purpose of the new invention
A. To keep people warm. B. To help beat the heat in hot weather.
C. To find out the wearers’ temperature. D. To protect clothes from becoming wet.
13. How does the special product work
A. By sending out absorbed heat. B. By turning sunlight into energy.
C. By keeping heat out completely. D. By using light colors to reflect sunlight.
14. What is the main idea of paragraph 3
A. The invention needs further testing. B. The studies in 2017 lack evidence.
C. The new textile has a good cooling effect. D. The new textile applies to various situations.
15. What’s the author’s attitude towards the invention
A. Doubtful. B. Objective. C. Supportive. D. Indifferent.
【答案】12. B 13. A 14. A 15. C
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了一种可以在炎热的天气里给人们降温的T恤，介绍了其工作原理以及未来的发展方向。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据第一段中“While there are many alternatives that manage to keep the body warm, this amazing invention aims to offer real relief for those who are eager to feel comfortable and fresh in the outdoors on extremely hot days.(虽然有很多方法可以让身体保持温暖，但这项惊人的发明旨在为那些渴望在极端炎热的天气里在户外感到舒适和清新的人提供真正的缓解)”可知，这项新发明的目的是在炎热的天气里给人们降温。故选B。
【13题详解】
细节理解题。根据第二段中“They designed a special textile (纺织物) that can absorb body heat and reemit (重发出) its energy into space as mid-infrared radiation (MIR).(他们设计了一种特殊的纺织品，可以吸收人体热量，并将其能量以中红外辐射(MIR)的形式释放到太空中。)”可知，这种特殊产品的工作原理是散发吸收的热量。故选A。
【14题详解】
主旨大意题。根据第三段“Research conducted at Stanford University in 2017 had already managed to cool the wearer by 3℃, but this previous trial was limited. So researchers still need to test the new approach to determine how effectively the new fabric cools while the wearers are standing or walking, and not directly facing the sky, like in their trials. They also need to examine and measure how well it works when T-shirts are no in close contact with the skin.(斯坦福大学在2017年进行的研究已经成功地将佩戴者的温度降低了3℃，但之前的试验是有限的。因此，研究人员仍然需要测试这种新方法，以确定当穿着者站立或行走，而不是像他们的试验那样直接面对天空时，这种新面料的冷却效果如何。他们还需要检查和测量当T恤与皮肤没有密切接触时，它的效果如何。)”可知，之前的试验是有限的，只测试了面对天空的情况，所以还需要进一步试验。故选A。
【15题详解】
推理判断题。根据最后一段中“So if you are an athlete or simply someone that has to deal with the extremely high temperatures, be patient because your days of feeling hot and bothered may be coming to an end!(所以，如果你是一名运动员，或者只是一个必须应对高温的人，请耐心等待，因为你感到炎热和烦恼的日子可能即将结束!)”可知，作者认为这项发明可能很快结束令人感到炎热和烦恼的日子，所以作者对此项发明持支持态度。故选C项。

“We’ll stop by the supermarket and buy some snacks and fruits. Now hurry and eat and then we’ll go. It’s going to be a lovely day. Grandma is coming with us. She’ll be here any minute.”
Alan ate his breakfast and then ran into his room to get his shoes. The problem was that he could only find one of them. He looked under his bed, but all he could see were dirty pants. He moved some of his toys out of the way, but still couldn’t find his shoe. After he had checked everywhere in his room, he ran into the kitchen. “Mom, I can’t find my shoe. Will you wait while I look for it ” he asked.
His mom thought about how many times she’d told Alan to clean his room up. She said something to Alan’s grandma in a low voice. Then, she said to Alan,“You will have to stay home. Your dad and I will take your brother Alex to the Lego Land. Grandma will stay at home with you.”
“No! Please wait for me. I want to go to the Lego Land,” Alan cried. “I’m sorry, Alan. I’ve told you a dozen times to clean your room and you did not do it. You can’t find your shoe now. It’s your own fault for not cleaning your room.You will stay home.”
Alan ran into his bedroom, crying. His mom came to the door and said, “Alan, clean that room of yours before I get home. I’ve told Grandma not to give you any sweets until you make your room clean and tidy.” She went out with Alex and the brothers’ dad. After a minute, they drove away.

【答案】One possible version:
Alan sat on his bed and cried for a long time. And then he wiped his tears and started to clean his room. It took him two hours to clean up his room. “I did it!” he said proudly. He even found his missing shoe. He ran to the living room. “Grandma, come and see. I cleaned my room and found my shoe.” Grandma looked at Alan's room and smiled. “If you had kept it this way, you wouldn't have lost your shoe and your mom wouldn't have punished you,” she said.
Alan and his grandma were sitting at the table, eating when his mom,dad and Alex came home. “Well, look at Alan's room! It's clean,” his dad said. “How was the Lego Land Did you have fun I wish I could have gone there with you,” Alan said. “If you keep your room clean, we may go to the Lego Land again next month,” his mom said. From then on, Alan tried to keep his room clean.
【解析】
【导语】本文以人物为线索展开，讲述了Alan跟妈妈提议去乐高乐园玩，她的妈妈同意了。但是在临行前，Alan只找到了一只鞋，妈妈回想起她告诉Alan多少次让她把房间打扫干净，但是她总是弄的一团糟。于是Alan妈妈打算给她一个教训，没有带她去乐高乐园，而是让奶奶在家看着她把房间打扫干净。
【详解】1.段落续写：
①由第一段首句内容“Alan坐在床上哭了很长时间。”可知，第一段可描写Alan的爸爸妈妈带着Alex去了乐园后，独自伤心，痛哭之后，打扫房间的过程。
②由第二段首句内容“Alan和她奶奶正坐在餐桌旁吃饭，这时她的妈妈、爸爸和Alex回家了。”可知，第二段可描写Alan的妈妈、爸爸和Alex回家后发生的故事。
