Teenage life around the world
Asha
I’m from Tanzania. Like most teenagers, I start my day early and end it late. After school, I study at a night school to prepare for the university entrance exam. When I have time off, I prefer to be outdoors. I love nature and animals. I’m quite upset about how we treat the environment, so I do my best to help. I volunteer to plant trees and I’m a member of our school’s Nature Club.
Samika
I’m 15. I wish I were a student, but I’m not. I had to leave school when I was 13 so that I could get a job and help my family. I work in a garment. It’s unbelievably hard work and the days are so long. Although everyone works hard, we still find time to play and laugh together. At times like these, the world feels like a wonderful place.
Frieder
I’m 16 and I go to a high school in Munich. I’m not crazy about school — listening to a teacher isn’t my thing — but I know I have to get an education. It’s very difficult for young people to find a job in Europe, so I worry a lot about the future. Oh, and I’m a gaming nerd. I love Internet games so much that I have started a gaming club at my school.
Joe
I’m a student from London. The online world is a big part of my life. I’ve been using the computer since I was a kid. I do various things online. Besides doing all my schoolwork, I chat with friends, play computer games, watch films, read the daily news and shop online. My parents are worried. They keep telling me to drag myself away from the online world.
1. What does Asha care about most
A. School life. B. Exams. C. Environment. D. Outdoor activities.
2. Which of the following can best describe Samika
A. Her life is hard but she is happy.
B. She is poor but can afford school.
C. She is out of job and stressful.
D. She is out of school and annoyed.
3. What do Frieder and Joe have in common
A. They worry about their future.
B. They are addicted to the Internet.
C. They prefer to make friends online.
D. They attend the computer club at school.
B
When I was 12 years old, I already knew that my teen years were going to be the worst years of my life. I was a total outsider, bullied (欺凌) at school. I felt completely alone in my small town.
But by starting to do volunteer work when I was 14, I turned my problem into a passion for helping others. The opportunity to practice kindness made me feel like my life had a greater purpose. The more positive energy I shared, the more kindness and appreciation I received. I realized that my purpose in life would be to reach out to people, specifically teenagers, and help them feel less alone.
Books were my true friends back then. I was so thankful that the authors wrote those books. The kindness they offered me with their books saved my life. One of my biggest dreams was to become an author so I could write books that would help other teenagers the way those books helped me.
After surviving terrible experiences at school and at home I made a choice to take the optimistic, positive road in the next steps of my journey. My dream career, one I thought was only possible for the authors I loved, is what I am doing now. I have been a full-time author of teen novels since 2007 and am grateful for this amazing opportunity to reach out to readers every single day.
Kindness saved me when I needed help the most. Even small acts of kindness can change someone’s life. You never know what someone else is going through. But by practicing daily kindness, you become an architect of positive change.
4. What was the author’s life like when he was 12
A. Boring. B. Peaceful. C. Painful. D. Meaningful.
5. How did the volunteer work benefit the author
A. It made him popular in his town. B. It helped him find the meaning of life.
C. It helped him understand others’ lives better. D. It helped to shape his dream career.
6. Why did the author choose writing as his job
A. He was inspired by his teacher. B. He could pass positive energy to readers.
C. He wanted to share his school experiences. D. He found he had a talent for writing.
7. What does the author suggest readers do in the last paragraph
A. Say “no” to bullies bravely. B. Make positive changes in their lives.
C. Treat others with kindness in daily life. D. Learn to care more about others’ feelings.
C
Some of us friends are making big decisions in their life: Which universities should they apply to I also noticed that many high school students in China are thinking of studying at universities abroad. Unluckily, from what I’ve seen, the information given by some websites and other media about studying abroad is very limited and sometimes even wrong.
There are once a Chinese girl who hoped that she could go to Columbia University in the US because she wanted to major in (主修) journalism. Columbia has a very famous graduate (研究生) program in journalism. However, they have no journalism program at the undergraduate (本科生) level! What’s more in both Canada and the US, it’s not suggested that students throw themselves into journalism right after high school. School say that students should take in more knowledge about the world and writing before entering that field.
The University of Waterloo, a Canada university famous for its engineering program, is another example. The emphasis (重视) of engineering in this school may go beyond your expectations. According to our teachers, this university spent millions of dollars building a library just for engineering students. The school’s computer science, mathematics and accounting are also great programs for students.
But, to be honest, according to my friends who have visited this university, the campus and the food are not very nice. Maybe this is because the school stresses its academic (学术的)strengths too much, thereby paying little attention to personal comforts.
Now you see, choosing a university is really not that easy. We need to do good research and consult as many people as possible before making a decision.
8. For high school students it’s very important to ____________.
A. choose a proper university
B. study at American universities
C. learn the information about websites
D. supply the information about studying abroad
9. Who can major in journalism program in Columbia University
A. Chinese girls. B. Graduates.
C. Undergraduates. D. High school students.
10. From Paragraph 3 and 4 we can learn in the University of Waterloo_____________.
A. engineering program is as famous as computer science
B. engineering students are the most intelligent
C. the campus is very small and dirty
D. the library for engineering students is very good
11. What’s the best title for the passage
A. Choosing a university is not easy
B. How to study at university abroad
C. A Chinese girl and Columbia University
D. Academic strengths of the university of Waterloo
D
Some high school students think it useless to receive higher education. Therefore, they choose not to go to college. If you're one of them, think again. Here are some reasons why you should go to college and receive a good education there.
Schools and universities are the first places to get knowledge. We take that knowledge later on to build our careers after graduation. More knowledge will be gained after you start working, but without education, that job will not be within easy reach. Knowledge leads to knowledge.
While limited within the walls of the educational places, we openly explore other cultures of the world! We come to know that ours is not the only culture. Other cultures have valuable things to share, enriching our own. Education also makes us want to travel and exchange with various cultures, getting more experience.
When there's a recession in the economy（经济）, those who attended college will be more likely to find a new job than those who only finished high school and have a limited skills set. The more education you have, the more chances you will get to improve the quality of your life as you have a better job and earn a higher salary.
When you're skillful and knowledgeable, you gain access to people of similar backgrounds and tastes. It means a good education leads to excellent networking. Good networking can benefit you a lot in your later life.
A good education makes you a more interesting person. You can talk about ideas and events instead of just other people and what's on sale in stores. An educated person doesn't gossip（说闲话）, having a preference to discuss ideas and listen to what other people have to say.
12. What can we learn about college education from Paragraph 2
A. It offers you a chance to study abroad. B. It can allow you to gain more knowledge.
C It can improve the quality of your daily life. D. It encourages you to travel around the world.
13. What does the underlined word "recession" in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A. change. B. drop. C. growth. D. support.
14. How can one benefit from a good education
A. You can gossip about others’ affairs. B. You are likely to study well at school.
C. You can work well with your coworkers. D. You get to know excellent people with similar interests.
15. What is the main idea of the passage
A. The benefits of attending college. B. The exchange with other cultures.
C. The access to good networking. D. The ways of college education.

47. 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。
Sal Garfield was having a bad day. He had been busy making cakes since 3 am. And now, his employee (雇员) who should take over the shop for the afternoon had just called in sick (请假).
Sal was an artist in making cakes. No one could make cakes like him, but he wasn’t a person who is good at talking to others. He dealt with several hateful (令人讨厌的) customers that morning, so when Janie, a nine-year-old girl, walked in, he was already very angry. Janie placed her little hands against the glass as she looked at the delicious cakes. “Hey, kid!” Sal shouted. “Don’t put your hands on the glass! I just cleaned it!” Janie jumped back and said sorry. “Everything looks so delicious! My mom says you make the best red velvet (丝绒) cake in the world,” Janie smiled. Sal felt happy about the praise.
“I want to buy a birthday cake,” Janie said and reached out her hand. There were many coins that didn’t come to more than a few dollars. She said she wanted to buy a red velvet cake. But Sal replied, “I hope you have more than those three or four dollars, kid! That cake costs $70!” Janie was shocked, and hoped she could buy just a slice (薄片) since she didn’t have any more money.
“Kid,” Sal answered, “you can’t even afford a slice!” Janie almost cried. She pointed at other cakes, asking whether she could buy one of the cheapest. Sal shook his head.
Janie was so sad. She wanted to buy a birthday cake for her mom, who had got seriously ill. Sal’s red velvet cake was her mom’s favorite. Janie wanted to buy one to surprise and cheer her mom up. Knowing she couldn’t even afford one of any other birthday cakes, Janie started crying, “Please, Sir. You don’t understand…” Sal lost his patience, shouting, “Get out! Try somewhere else!” Janie ran out and sat on a chair outside of the door, crying sadly. Just then, an old lady walked past.
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。
The old lady stopped to ask Janie, “Sweetie, are you OK ”
________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
Overhearing their conversation, Sal felt regretful for his behavior just now.

When I was 12 years old, I already knew that my teen years were going to be the worst years of my life. I was a total outsider, bullied (欺凌) at school. I felt completely alone in my small town.
But by starting to do volunteer work when I was 14, I turned my problem into a passion for helping others. The opportunity to practice kindness made me feel like my life had a greater purpose. The more positive energy I shared, the more kindness and appreciation I received. I realized that my purpose in life would be to reach out to people, specifically teenagers, and help them feel less alone.
Books were my true friends back then. I was so thankful that the authors wrote those books. The kindness they offered me with their books saved my life. One of my biggest dreams was to become an author so I could write books that would help other teenagers the way those books helped me.
After surviving terrible experiences at school and at home, I made a choice to take the optimistic, positive road in the next steps of my journey. My dream career, one I thought was only possible for the authors I loved, is what I am doing now. I have been a full-time author of teen novels since 2007 and am grateful for this amazing opportunity to reach out to readers every single day.
Kindness saved me when I needed help the most. Even small acts of kindness can change someone’s life. You never know what someone else is going through. But by practicing daily kindness, you become an architect of positive change.

Some of us friends are making big decisions in their life: Which universities should they apply to I also noticed that many high school students in China are thinking of studying at universities abroad. Unluckily, from what I’ve seen, the information given by some websites and other media about studying abroad is very limited and sometimes even wrong.
There are once a Chinese girl who hoped that she could go to Columbia University in the US because she wanted to major in (主修) journalism. Columbia has a very famous graduate (研究生) program in journalism. However, they have no journalism program at the undergraduate (本科生) level! What’s more in both Canada and the US, it’s not suggested that students throw themselves into journalism right after high school. School say that students should take in more knowledge about the world and writing before entering that field.
The University of Waterloo, a Canada university famous for its engineering program, is another example. The emphasis (重视) of engineering in this school may go beyond your expectations. According to our teachers, this university spent millions of dollars building a library just for engineering students. The school’s computer science, mathematics and accounting are also great programs for students.
But, to be honest, according to my friends who have visited this university, the campus and the food are not very nice. Maybe this is because the school stresses its academic (学术的)strengths too much, thereby paying little attention to personal comforts.
Now you see, choosing a university is really not that easy. We need to do good research and consult as many people as possible before making a decision.
8. For high school students it’s very important to ____________.
A. choose a proper university
B. study at American universities
C. learn the information about websites
D. supply the information about studying abroad

A. engineering program is as famous as computer science
B. engineering students are the most intelligent
C. the campus is very small and dirty
D. the library for engineering students is very good

C. A Chinese girl and Columbia University
D. Academic strengths of the university of Waterloo
【答案】8. A 9. B 10. D 11. A

Some high school students think it useless to receive higher education. Therefore, they choose not to go to college. If you're one of them, think again. Here are some reasons why you should go to college and receive a good education there.
Schools and universities are the first places to get knowledge. We take that knowledge later on to build our careers after graduation. More knowledge will be gained after you start working, but without education, that job will not be within easy reach. Knowledge leads to knowledge.
While limited within the walls of the educational places, we openly explore other cultures of the world! We come to know that ours is not the only culture. Other cultures have valuable things to share, enriching our own. Education also makes us want to travel and exchange with various cultures, getting more experience.
When there's a recession in the economy（经济）, those who attended college will be more likely to find a new job than those who only finished high school and have a limited skills set. The more education you have, the more chances you will get to improve the quality of your life as you have a better job and earn a higher salary.
When you're skillful and knowledgeable, you gain access to people of similar backgrounds and tastes. It means a good education leads to excellent networking. Good networking can benefit you a lot in your later life.
A good education makes you a more interesting person. You can talk about ideas and events instead of just other people and what's on sale in stores. An educated person doesn't gossip（说闲话）, having a preference to discuss ideas and listen to what other people have to say.
12. What can we learn about college education from Paragraph 2
A. It offers you a chance to study abroad. B. It can allow you to gain more knowledge.
C. It can improve the quality of your daily life. D. It encourages you to travel around the world.
13. What does the underlined word "recession" in Paragraph 4 probably mean
A. change. B. drop. C. growth. D. support.
14. How can one benefit from a good education
A. You can gossip about others’ affairs. B. You are likely to study well at school.
C. You can work well with your coworkers. D. You get to know excellent people with similar interests.
15. What is the main idea of the passage
A. The benefits of attending college. B. The exchange with other cultures.
C. The access to good networking. D. The ways of college education.
【答案】12. B 13. B 14. D 15. A

【13题详解】
词句猜测题。根据下文“those who attended college will be more likely to find a new job than those who only finished high school and have a limited skills set”可知那些上过大学的人比那些高中毕业、技能有限的人更有可能找到一份新工作，这应是在经济衰退时期，就业率不高的情况下得出的结论，划线部分单词含义为“衰退，下降”，A. Change.改变；B. Drop.下降；C. Growth.增长；D. Support.支持。故选B。
【14题详解】
细节理解题。根据倒数第二段“When you're skillful and knowledgeable, you gain access to people of similar backgrounds and tastes. It means a good education leads to excellent networking.（当你有技能，知识渊博时，你就能接触到有相似背景和品位的人。这意味着良好的教育可以导致好的关系网）”可知，良好的教育可以使你结识更优秀的，有相同兴趣的人。故选D。

47. 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。
Sal Garfield was having a bad day. He had been busy making cakes since 3 am. And now, his employee (雇员) who should take over the shop for the afternoon had just called in sick (请假).
Sal was an artist in making cakes. No one could make cakes like him, but he wasn’t a person who is good at talking to others. He dealt with several hateful (令人讨厌的) customers that morning, so when Janie, a nine-year-old girl, walked in, he was already very angry. Janie placed her little hands against the glass as she looked at the delicious cakes. “Hey, kid!” Sal shouted. “Don’t put your hands on the glass! I just cleaned it!” Janie jumped back and said sorry. “Everything looks so delicious! My mom says you make the best red velvet (丝绒) cake in the world,” Janie smiled. Sal felt happy about the praise.
“I want to buy a birthday cake,” Janie said and reached out her hand. There were many coins that didn’t come to more than a few dollars. She said she wanted to buy a red velvet cake. But Sal replied, “I hope you have more than those three or four dollars, kid! That cake costs $70!” Janie was shocked, and hoped she could buy just a slice (薄片) since she didn’t have any more money.
“Kid,” Sal answered, “you can’t even afford a slice!” Janie almost cried. She pointed at other cakes, asking whether she could buy one of the cheapest. Sal shook his head.
Janie was so sad. She wanted to buy a birthday cake for her mom, who had got seriously ill. Sal’s red velvet cake was her mom’s favorite. Janie wanted to buy one to surprise and cheer her mom up. Knowing she couldn’t even afford one of any other birthday cakes, Janie started crying, “Please, Sir. You don’t understand…” Sal lost his patience, shouting, “Get out! Try somewhere else!” Janie ran out and sat on a chair outside of the door, crying sadly. Just then, an old lady walked past.

【答案】参考范文：
The old lady stopped to ask Janie, “Sweetie, are you OK ” Janie shook her head. She expressed her sadness for not having enough money to buy her sick mom a birthday cake. Hearing what had happened to the girl’s mother, the old lady couldn’t help hugging Janie, comforted her, and decided to do something for her. She reached into her pocket, pulled out some money, and handed it to Janie. Then she led the girl back to the cake store.
Overhearing their conversation, Sal felt regretful for his behavior just now. When Janie walked back in, Sal greeted her with a warm smile this time. “I’m sorry, kid,” Sal said. “You can choose any cake for your mother for free.” Though surprised, Janie’s face lit up and she thanked Sal a lot. Janie walked carefully to the glass window, watching the red velvet cake that she had been looking forward to. Without any delay, Sal packed up the cake beautifully and handed it to Janie, saying, “Best wishes to your mother, kid!” Janie smiled and believed everything would be alright.
