High school, for most teenagers, is a space where new adventures and challenges begin. I clearly remember my first day of high school. As I entered the schools gate, I was greeted by a crowd of students. The hallways were filled with talking and laughter. It was a lot to handle, and I felt like a tiny fish in a vast ocean. I held my schedule tightly, trying to find the right classroom. My heart raced as I was scared of getting lost.
My first class was English, and as I walked in, I spotted familiar faces from my previous school I breathed a sigh of relief as I took my seat, surrounded by friendly smiles. My English teacher, Mrs. Johnson, introduced herself and made everyone feel comfortable. She explained what we would be studying during the semester and encouraged us to share our thoughts and ideas. The next class was mathematics, which happened to be my weakest subject. I felt a tight feeling in my stomach as I entered the classroom, but my maths teacher, Mr. Smith, turned out to be very patient. He promised us that we would learn and improve together. His words of support made me feel more relaxed, and I began to believe that I could overcome my maths struggles.
During lunchtime, I sat with a group of students who quickly became my friends. We shared stories, and talked about our expectations for high school. It was during this time that I realized that high school wasn’t just about academics (学术); it was also about building friendships and making lasting memories.
The rest of the day flew by with a variety of classes, faces, and experiences. My first day of high school was filled with moments of anxiety, joy, and the promise of new beginnings.

【4题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第一段“High school, for most teenagers, is a space where new adventures and challenges begin. I clearly remember my first day of high school. As I entered the schools gate, I was greeted by a crowd of students. The hallways were filled with talking and laughter.

【5题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章第二段“My English teacher, Mrs. Johnson, introduced herself and made everyone feel comfortable. She explained what we would be studying during the semester and encouraged us to share our thoughts and ideas.(我的英语老师Johnson女士做了自我介绍,使大家感到很舒服。她解释了我们这学期将要学习的内容,并鼓励我们分享自己的想法和想法。)”可知,作者的英语老师Johnson女士善于鼓舞学生,且她解释学期要学的内容对学生来说是有帮助的。故选D。

His words of support made me feel more relaxed, and I began to believe that I could overcome my maths struggles.(下一堂课是数学,这恰好是我最弱的科目。当我走进教室时,我感到胃里一阵紧张,但我的数学老师Smith先生却很有耐心。他向我们保证,我们将一起学习和提高。他支持的话语让我感到更放松,我开始相信我可以克服我的数学难题。)”可知,作者由于自己数学不好,所以走进数学课堂时感到焦虑紧张。故选B。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第三段“During lunchtime, I sat with a group of students who quickly became my friends. We shared stories, and talked about our expectations for high school. It was during this time that I real zed that high school wasn’t just about academics(学术); it was also about building friendships and making lasting memories.(午餐时,我和一群学生坐在一起,他们很快就成了我的朋友。我们分享故事,谈论我们对高中的期望。正是在这段时间里,我真正意识到高中不仅仅是学习;这也是关于建立友谊和留下持久的回忆。)”可知,在午餐期间,作者明白了高中不仅仅是学习,还可以建立友谊。故选D。
C
Friends play an important part in our lives, and although we may take friendship for granted, we often don’t clearly understand how to make friends. While we get on well with a number of people, we are usually friends with only a very few — for example, the average among students is about 6 per person. In all the cases of friendly relationships, two people like one another and enjoy being together, but beyond that, the degree of intimacy between them and the reasons for their shared interests vary greatly. As we get to know people, we take into account things like age, race, economic condition, social position, and intelligence. Although these factors are not of great importance, it is more difficult to get on with people when there is a marked difference in age and background.
Some friendly relationships can be kept on argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to have similar ideas and beliefs, the same opinions and interests — they often talk about “being on the same wavelength”. It generally takes time to reach this point. And the more intimately involved people become, the more they depend on one another. People who want to be friends have to learn to put up with annoying habits and to stand differences.
In contrast with marriage, there are no friendship ceremonies to strengthen the association between two people. But the supporting and understanding of each other that results from shared experiences and emotions does seem to create a powerful bond, which can overcome differences in background, and break down barriers of age, class or race.
8. According to the passage, .
A. friends are those who must share their interests
B. friends are closer than people who just get on with each other
C. all the people know how to make friends
D. every student has six friends
9. We can learn from the passage that .
A. there are no special ceremonies to strengthen friendship
B. friendship can overcome all differences between two people
C. standing differences in opinion can lead to friendship
D. friendship can be strengthened by smiles and soft voices
10. Which of the following is NOT implied in the passage
A. Even friends may have different opinions.
B. Someone’s habits may annoy his friends.
C. It generally takes time for people to become close friends.
D. Friends never argue with each other.
11. When people talk about “being on the same wavelength”, they mean that they .
A. have the same background B. watch the same TV programs
C. are the same in all ways D. share the same way of thinking and the same interests
【答案】8. B 9. A 10. D 11. D
【解析】
【分析】这是一篇说明文。朋友在我们的生活中扮演着重要的角色,虽然我们可能认为友谊是理所当然的,但我们经常不清楚如何交朋友。本文主要介绍交朋友的过程和注意事项。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第一段中“While we get on well with a number of people, we are usually friends with only a very few — for example, the average among students is about 6 per person.(虽然我们和很多人相处得很好,但我们通常只和很少的几个人交朋友——例如,学生中平均每人约有6个朋友)”可推知,朋友要比那些相处得好的人们更为亲近一些。故选B。
【9题详解】
细节理解题。根据最后一段中“In contrast with marriage, there are no friendship ceremonies to strengthen the association between two people.(与婚姻相反,友谊没有仪式来加强两个人之间的联系)”可知,没有什么特殊仪式能加强两人之间的友谊。故选A。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据第二段中“Some friendly relationships can be kept on argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to have similar ideas and beliefs, the same opinions and interests(一些友好的关系可以通过争论和讨论来维持,但亲密的朋友通常都有相似的想法和信仰,相同的观点和兴趣)”可知,有些朋友之间也会争论,故D选项“朋友之间从不争吵”文中没有暗示。故选D。
【11题详解】
词句猜测题。根据第二段中“Some friendly relationships can be kept on argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to have similar ideas and beliefs, the same opinions and interests(一些友好的关系可以通过争论和讨论来维持,但亲密的朋友通常都有相似的想法和信仰,相同的观点和兴趣)”可推知,当人们说“on the same wavelength”时,他们的意思是“有共同的想法和爱好”。故选D。

Research shows that isolation (隔绝) is bad for us and connected with certain diseases including depression, high blood pressure and heart disease. Yet teenagers look for isolation by using the device of our times — a screen, screens of all kinds. However, in whatever form, screens are addictive (上瘾的), and addictive from an early age. Research has shown that given the chance, six-month old babies prefer screens to real human faces.
Hand in hand with this addiction to screens, we are seeing an increase of teenage mental health problems. Social media claims to be inclusive (包容的) keeping you connected. But it’s not. It isolates you from real people. Screens have even been described as being poisonous for teenagers.
Psychologist Jean Twenge, a professor at San Diego State University, believes today’s teenagers are “on the edge” of a major mental health crisis and requests, “do anything that doesn’t connect with a screen”. The problem is, she claims, children born between 1995 and 2012 have grown up with a smart phone in their hands, and it has “changed every aspect” of their lives. The number of teenagers who really see their friends very often has dropped by more than 40%since 2000. In 2015, only 56%of 17-year-old went on a date, down from 85%. Modern teenagers are slower to learn to drive, or earn money and spend more time at home. They’re “on their phone, in their room, alone and often depressed”, she says.
Some critics ( 评论家), however, say we should encourage our children to spend more time online. Robert Hannigan, former director of GCHQ, said in August that Britain is badly short of engineers and computer scientists, and encouraged children to develop cyber skill to compete in the digital industry.
I’m not the first to say that social media is worsen than real human communication, and harms mental health. Studies show teens who spend three hours a day online are 35% more likely to suicide (自杀). The suicide rate among girls aged 12 to 14 has more than doubled in a decade.
12. Why does Jean Twenge call on teens to surf online less
A. Social media is inclusive and keeps them connected.
B. Social media has changed every aspect of their lives.
C. Social media does great harm to their eyesight.
D. Social media is addictive and leads to mental problems.
13. Robert Hannigan may agree that we should________.
A. allow teens to isolate themselves from real social contact
B. call on teens to do anything that doesn’t involve a screen
C. urge children to contact people face to face instead of online
D. encourage children to spend more time on the Internet
14. What is the author’s attitude towards social media
A. Objective. B. Disapproving.
C. Doubtful. D. Supportive.
15. What may be the best title for the text
A. Teenagers looking for isolation using screens
B. Social media causing teenagers health problems
C. Teenagers’ heavy addiction to social media
D. Different opinions on social media use
【答案】12. D 13. D 14. B 15. A
【解析】
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了如今青少年用屏幕筑起心墙,试图脱离真正的社会交往,他们正处于严重心理健康危机的边缘并且说明了人们对青少年上网持不同的态度。
【12题详解】
细节理解题。根据文章第一段“However, in whatever form, screens are addictive (上瘾的), and addictive from an early age.(然而,无论何种形式,屏幕都会让人上瘾,而且从小就会上瘾。)”和第三段“Psychologist Jean Twenge, a professor at San Diego State University, believes today’s teenagers are “on the edge” of a major mental health crisis and requests,(圣地亚哥州立大学的心理学家Jean Twenge教授认为,今天的青少年正处于一场重大心理健康危机的“边缘”,)”可知,之所以Jean Twenge呼吁青少年少上网是因为社交媒体会让人上瘾,并导致精神问题。故选D项。
【13题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章倒数第二段“Some critics ( 评论家), however, say we should encourage our children to spend more time online. Robert Hannigan, former director of GCHQ, said in August that Britain is badly short of engineers and computer scientists, and encouraged children to develop cyber skill to compete in the digital industry.(然而,一些批评人士说,我们应该鼓励我们的孩子花更多的时间上网。英国政府通信总部(GCHQ)前主任罗伯特 汉尼根(Robert Hannigan)今年8月表示,英国严重缺乏工程师和计算机科学家,他鼓励孩子们培养网络技能,以便在数字产业中竞争。)”可知,罗伯特·汉尼根认为英国严重缺乏工程师和计算机科学家,他鼓励孩子们培养网络技能,可得出罗伯特·汉尼根可能同意我们应该鼓励孩子们花更多的时间上网。故选D项。
【14题详解】
推理判断题。根据文章最后一段“I’m not the first to say that social media is worsen than real human communication, and harms mental health. Studies show teens who spend three hours a day online are 35% more likely to suicide (自杀). The suicide rate among girls aged 12 to 14 has more than doubled in a decade.(我并不是第一个说社交媒体比真实的人类交流更糟糕,损害心理健康的人。研究表明,每天上网3小时的青少年自杀的可能性要高出35%。12至14岁女孩的自杀率在10年内增加了一倍多。)”可知,作者对社交媒体的态度是不赞成的。故选B项。
【15题详解】
主旨大意题。根据文章第一段“Research shows that isolation (隔绝) is bad for us and connected with certain diseases including depression, high blood pressure and heart disease. Yet teenagers look for isolation by using the device of our times — a screen, screens of all kinds.(研究表明,孤独对我们有害,并与某些疾病有关,包括抑郁症、高血压和心脏病。然而,青少年通过使用我们这个时代的设备——屏幕,各种各样的屏幕来寻求孤立。)”可知,文章介绍了如今青少年用屏幕筑起心墙,试图脱离真正的社会交往,他们正处于严重心理健康危机的边缘并且说明了人们对青少年上网持不同的态度。因此A选项“青少年利用屏幕寻求隔离”适合用作文章标题。故选A项。

【16题详解】
前文“If you make even one person smile today, you can help make this world a better place.”(如果你今天能让一个人微笑,你就能让这个世界变得更美好。)讲述了你能让这个世界变得更美好的一个条件。同时结合下文黑体字可知,下文讲述的是让别人开心的四种方法。因此空处应总说下面就是一些好的建议。选项B.“这里有一些想法可以帮助你。”,切题,故选B。

【20题详解】
下文“Perhaps you can tell a friend that you appreciate all they are to you, or remind your mum that you love her. ”(也许你可以告诉你的朋友你很感激他们对你的一切,或者提醒你的妈妈你爱她。)表明对于朋友或你的妈妈他们为你做的一切,告诉他们你感激他们是表达你爱他们的方式,即不必通过说出来也可以表达爱。选项E.“不一定要说我爱你”,符合语境。故选E。

Jim slumped on the couch. Mother’s Day was coming up, and he didn’t have a present. “How can I buy a present without money ” he thought.
Jim picked up the newspaper that was lying on the couch. He noticed a large advertisement on the front page. The local department store was sponsoring a contest. “Tell us why your mom is special and win a shopping spree(疯狂购物) for her,” said the ad.
“This is perfect!” thought Jim. He ran to his room with the newspaper, taking a pencil and a blank piece of paper from his desk, he started to write.
“My mom is the best mother in the world. She always makes a lunch for me to take to school, and she never forgets my dessert. She reads as many books to me before bed as I want. She always remembers to check under the bed for monsters. And she gives the best hug, but never in front of my friends, who would laugh at me for hugging my mom.”
Jim liked what he had written. He copied it neatly and got an envelope and a stamp from his dad. He ran to the mailbox with his entry(参赛作品), “Mom will love having a shopping spree,” he thought.
Jim checked the mailbox every day for his prize. Days passed by, and then weeks. Soon it was the day before Mother’s Day. Jim still hadn’t heard anything about the contest.
“What am I going to do now ” he wondered. He didn’t have a present, and he didn’t have a shopping spree, and he still didn’t have any money. He had to think of something. Jim closed his eyes and curled his toes and thought so hard that his ears hurt.

After he finished writing, he copied it neatly, and got another envelope from his dad. He put the letter into the envelope with great care and thought his mom would love the present. A smile of satisfaction flashed across his face. He rose from his chair, stretched himself, and went to bed happily.
The next morning, Jim handed his present to his mom. Seeing the present, her face brightened up. “I hope you will like it, mom,” Jim looked at his mom eagerly. His mom gave him a big smile, “Thank you, my dear! Whatever it is, I will like it.” Then she took out the letter, reading, “Dear mom, thank you for making me meals and dessert, telling me stories and giving me hugs. Thank you for everything. I love you!” Mom hugged Jim tightly, “Thank you, my son. I love you, too. This is the best present I have ever received.”

High school, for most teenagers, is a space where new adventures and challenges begin. I clearly remember my first day of high school. As I entered the schools gate, I was greeted by a crowd of students. The hallways were filled with talking and laughter. It was a lot to handle, and I felt like a tiny fish in a vast ocean. I held my schedule tightly, trying to find the right classroom. My heart raced as I was scared of getting lost.
My first class was English, and as I walked in, I spotted familiar faces from my previous school I breathed a sigh of relief as I took my seat, surrounded by friendly smiles. My English teacher, Mrs. Johnson, introduced herself and made everyone feel comfortable. She explained what we would be studying during the semester and encouraged us to share our thoughts and ideas. The next class was mathematics, which happened to be my weakest subject. I felt a tight feeling in my stomach as I entered the classroom, but my maths teacher, Mr. Smith, turned out to be very patient. He promised us that we would learn and improve together. His words of support made me feel more relaxed, and I began to believe that I could overcome my maths struggles.
During lunchtime, I sat with a group of students who quickly became my friends. We shared stories, and talked about our expectations for high school. It was during this time that I realized that high school wasn’t just about academics (学术); it was also about building friendships and making lasting memories.
The rest of the day flew by with a variety of classes, faces, and experiences. My first day of high school was filled with moments of anxiety, joy, and the promise of new beginnings.
4. Why did the author feel like a tiny fish in a vast ocean at first
A. Because of excitement and curiosity.
B. Because of the school’s welcoming atmosphere.
C. Because of fear of the unfamiliar environment
D. Because of good preparations for the new school.
5. Which words can best describe the English teacher
A. Outgoing and friendly. B. Generous and powerful.
C. Responsible and patient. D. Encouraging and supportive.
6. How did the author feel when entering the maths class
A. Excited. B. Anxious. C. Relaxed. D. Confident.
7. What did the author realize during lunchtime
A. High school only focused on academics.
B. High school was an extremely challenging place.
C. High school was full of old friends and classmates.
D High school was also about wonderful social experiences
C
Friends play an important part in our lives, and although we may take friendship for granted, we often don’t clearly understand how to make friends. While we get on well with a number of people, we are usually friends with only a very few — for example, the average among students is about 6 per person. In all the cases of friendly relationships, two people like one another and enjoy being together, but beyond that, the degree of intimacy between them and the reasons for their shared interests vary greatly. As we get to know people, we take into account things like age, race, economic condition, social position, and intelligence. Although these factors are not of great importance, it is more difficult to get on with people when there is a marked difference in age and background.
Some friendly relationships can be kept on argument and discussion, but it is usual for close friends to have similar ideas and beliefs, the same opinions and interests — they often talk about “being on the same wavelength”. It generally takes time to reach this point. And the more intimately involved people become, the more they depend on one another. People who want to be friends have to learn to put up with annoying habits and to stand differences.
In contrast with marriage, there are no friendship ceremonies to strengthen the association between two people. But the supporting and understanding of each other that results from shared experiences and emotions does seem to create a powerful bond, which can overcome differences in background, and break down barriers of age, class or race.
8. According to the passage, .
A. friends are those who must share their interests
B. friends are closer than people who just get on with each other
C. all the people know how to make friends
D. every student has six friends
9. We can learn from the passage that .
A. there are no special ceremonies to strengthen friendship
B. friendship can overcome all differences between two people
C. standing differences in opinion can lead to friendship
D. friendship can be strengthened by smiles and soft voices
10. Which of the following is NOT implied in the passage
A. Even friends may have different opinions.
B. Someone’s habits may annoy his friends.
C. It generally takes time for people to become close friends.
D. Friends never argue with each other.
11. When people talk about “being on the same wavelength”, they mean that they .
A. have the same background B. watch the same TV programs
C. are the same in all ways D. share the same way of thinking and the same interests
D
Research shows that isolation (隔绝) is bad for us and connected with certain diseases including depression, high blood pressure and heart disease. Yet teenagers look for isolation by using the device of our times — a screen, screens of all kinds. However, in whatever form, screens are addictive (上瘾的), and addictive from an early age. Research has shown that given the chance, six-month old babies prefer screens to real human faces.
Hand in hand with this addiction to screens, we are seeing an increase of teenage mental health problems. Social media claims to be inclusive (包容的) keeping you connected. But it’s not. It isolates you from real people. Screens have even been described as being poisonous for teenagers.
Psychologist Jean Twenge, a professor at San Diego State University, believes today’s teenagers are “on the edge” of a major mental health crisis and requests, “do anything that doesn’t connect with a screen”. The problem is, she claims, children born between 1995 and 2012 have grown up with a smart phone in their hands, and it has “changed every aspect” of their lives. The number of teenagers who really see their friends very often has dropped by more than 40%since 2000. In 2015, only 56%of 17-year-old went on a date, down from 85%. Modern teenagers are slower to learn to drive, or earn money and spend more time at home. They’re “on their phone, in their room, alone and often depressed”, she says.
Some critics ( 评论家), however, say we should encourage our children to spend more time online. Robert Hannigan, former director of GCHQ, said in August that Britain is badly short of engineers and computer scientists, and encouraged children to develop cyber skill to compete in the digital industry.
I’m not the first to say that social media is worsen than real human communication, and harms mental health. Studies show teens who spend three hours a day online are 35% more likely to suicide (自杀). The suicide rate among girls aged 12 to 14 has more than doubled in a decade.
12. Why does Jean Twenge call on teens to surf online less
A. Social media is inclusive and keeps them connected.
B. Social media has changed every aspect of their lives.
C. Social media does great harm to their eyesight.
D. Social media is addictive and leads to mental problems.
13. Robert Hannigan may agree that we should________.

Jim slumped on the couch. Mother’s Day was coming up, and he didn’t have a present. “How can I buy a present without money ” he thought.
Jim picked up the newspaper that was lying on the couch. He noticed a large advertisement on the front page. The local department store was sponsoring a contest. “Tell us why your mom is special and win a shopping spree(疯狂购物) for her,” said the ad.
“This is perfect!” thought Jim. He ran to his room with the newspaper, taking a pencil and a blank piece of paper from his desk, he started to write.
“My mom is the best mother in the world. She always makes a lunch for me to take to school, and she never forgets my dessert. She reads as many books to me before bed as I want. She always remembers to check under the bed for monsters. And she gives the best hug, but never in front of my friends, who would laugh at me for hugging my mom.”
Jim liked what he had written. He copied it neatly and got an envelope and a stamp from his dad. He ran to the mailbox with his entry(参赛作品), “Mom will love having a shopping spree,” he thought.
Jim checked the mailbox every day for his prize. Days passed by, and then weeks. Soon it was the day before Mother’s Day. Jim still hadn’t heard anything about the contest.
“What am I going to do now ” he wondered. He didn’t have a present, and he didn’t have a shopping spree, and he still didn’t have any money. He had to think of something. Jim closed his eyes and curled his toes and thought so hard that his ears hurt.
