二、阅读理解
Harvey Sutton spent nearly seven months hiking (徒步旅行) with his parents, walking the thousands of miles that make up the complete Appalachian Trail (阿巴拉契亚山道), which is simply called the “AT”. Harvey was just 4 years old when he started, and celebrated his 5th birthday on the trail.
To build up their child’s physical health and develop his personal qualities, Josh and Mary Sutton have been hiking with Harvey since he was two years old. They prepared him for hiking the “AT” by starting out with lots of shorter walks and hikes.
The “AT” is a 3,530-kilometer hiking trail that runs through the forests of the Appalachian Mountains, from Georgia to Maine, passing through 14 states in all. The amount of up and down on the trail is about the same as climbing up and down Mount Everest (the world’s tallest mountain) 16 times. So only one out of every 4 hikers completes all the sections of the trail. But that didn’t stop Harvey and his family.
It took Harvey and his family 209 days—about seven months—to complete the entire AT. Every day the family would wake up around 5:30 in the morning. They would have breakfast and pack up their tent(帐篷) and sleeping bags before setting off through the woods. In general, the family hiked about 16 kilometers a day before stopping to set up camp again.
During his days on the AT, Harvey liked to use his imagination, which helped him walk more quickly and have fun. Harvey and his family made friends with other hikers on the trail. Harvey didn’t seem to get tired and enjoyed the hard work of hiking. “My favorite part was the rock climbing,” he says, “because it was so fun and hard.”
Completing the AT taught Harvey and his parents how to work as a team and how to take on challenges together. “We’re closer than ever before because of the experience,” Harvey’s mom said. “If possible, I want to hike the AT again at some point in the future,” Harvey added.
11.For what purpose did the Suttons hike the “AT”
A. To see the fantastic natural scenery together.
B. To prepared Harvey to climb Mount Everest.
C. To make Harvey strong both in body and in mind.
D. To celebrate Harvey’s 5th birthday in a special way.
12.What do the numbers in paragraph 3 illustrate
A. The main features of the AT.
B. The difficulty of hiking the AT.
C. The popularity of climbing the AT.
D. The significance of crossing the AT.
13.What is the typical character of Harvey
A. Brave, curious and talkative.
B. Honest, easy-going and creative.
C. Challengeable, proud and humorous.
D. Adventurous, positive and strong-willed.
14.What does the last paragraph mainly tell us
A. Harvey is going to hike the AT again.
B. It’s important to meet challenges on one’s own.
C. The Suttons have benefited greatly from the hike.
D. Hiking is sure to make family relationship stronger.

Choose one goal to start. Something large enough that will give you a sense of achievement, while adjusting well to your values. If you want to achieve your goal, focus is the key here. ③__________ If you perform many tasks at a time, you might never finish your projects because they will take far too long.
●Set a date for success.

A PhD student in Michigan defended her paper while wearing a skirt made of rejection letters she received while studying. 29-year-old Caitlin Kirby printed out 17 of her rejection letters—from scholarships, academic journals, and conferences—then folded each one into a fan. She connected them in rows, and by the end she designed the item into a skirt and wore it.
She said that the idea behind her unique clothing item came out of a desire to normalize rejection and take pride in overcoming it. "The whole process of revisiting those old letters and making that skirt sort of reminded me that you have to apply to a lot of things to succeed," she said. "A natural part of the process is to get rejected along the way."
Caitlin's adviser, Julie Libarkin, a professor of earth and environmental science at Michigan State University, also encourages the acceptance of failure in her students. Libarkin believes it's important for students to get into habit of applying for things, and to get used to the feeling of rejection, so she encourages them to chase after any opportunity that comes their way. If a student doesn't get the grant or the spot in the academic journal, that's okay. They'll still have learned something in the process.
As for Caitlin Her rejections over the years have led to great things: Since her doctorate, she's won a scholarship to do further research on urban agriculture in Germany.
Currently, she's a post-doctoral researcher at the University of Nebraska-Lincoln. As for what the future holds "I'm prepared to receive a few more rejection letters along the way," she joked heartily, "Maybe I'll make a longer skirt."
11.What can we learn about Caitlin Kirby's rejection letters
A.She received 17 rejections in total.
B.29 of her rejections were from journals.
C.The rejections were connected into a fan.
D.She made some rejection letters into a skirt.
12.What is Julie Libarkin's attitude towards Caitlin's action
A.Favorable. B.Ambiguous. C.Skeptical. D.Opposed.
13.Which of the following words can best describe Catlin
A.Creative and considerate. B.Caring and determined.
C.Optimistic and humorous. D.Generous and intelligent.
14.Which of the following may Caitlin agree with
A.Hard work pays off. B.Education is the entrance to success.
C.Self-respect earns more respect. D.One needs to normalize failures.
三、七选五
“Some kids are naturally more competitive than others,” says professional adviser Roseann Clay. But certain factors play into the behavior of kids to make them want to win at everything.
One factor is that kids are becoming aware of what others think of them. Winning games and getting those top grades is a way to get loads of attention.①_________When kids have a genuine fear of losing, this can drive them to be more competitive. And when they lose, bad emotions usually follow. How can parents deal with kids who get angry or upset when they don't win all the time
②_________Roseann suggests that parents make a point of showing how they handle losing well, while still having fun. And before any competitive activity or game, make sure everyone knows what the rules and expected behaviors are. This helps a child shift from an “I'm only good if I win” attitude to “I'm having fun” attitude.
If a child is pushed to be too competitive and care about winning above all else, their emotional well-being is put at risk. The knock-on effect is that their confidence remains low.③_________.
Also, some children's anxiety causes them to be afraid of competition.
④_________They should to open up conversation and focus on the feelings of kids and not their behaviors.
⑤_________We can help them celebrate and enjoy all the small steps it took to get there, and encourage a more positive outlook and healthy competition. This will serve them throughout life as they manage stress.
A. Not all kids want to win.
B. Kids can still celebrate a win.
C. Parents shouldn't push these kids.
D. Insecurity can also be a factor here.
E. Insecure children want to win everything.
F. This can really rock a developing child's emotional core.
G. Children can learn to manage their emotions with role modeling.

14.答案：D
解析：推理判断题。根据文章第二段"The whole process of revisiting those old letters and making that skirt sort of reminded me that you have to apply to a lot of things to succeed," she said. "A natural part of the process is to get rejected along the way." (“翻看那些旧信件、制作那条裙子的整个过程在某种程度上提醒了我,要想成功,你必须申请很多职位。”她说。“在这个过程中,被拒绝是很自然的一部分。”)可推断,我们需要将失败正常化。故选D。
三、七选五
答案：DGFCB
解析：①第二段主要叙述了影响孩子行为、让他们想赢的两个因素。“One factor is that kids are becoming aware of what others think of them. Winning games and getting those top grades is a way to get loads of attention.”是一个因素。空后叙述了“孩子输了会有不好的情绪”,即没有安全感,这也是一个因素。分析选项可知,D项符合语境,故选D项。
②空后Roseann建议父母们应该展示他们是如何在享受快乐的同时处理好失败的……这有助于孩子从“我只有赢了才算优秀”的态度转变为“我正在享受快乐”的态度。由此可推断出此处讲的是家长应给孩子树立如何管理情绪的榜样。分析选项可知,G项(孩子们可以通过榜样来学习管理他们的情绪)符合语境,故选G项。
③空前的内容说“如果孩子被逼得过于争强好胜,把胜利看得高于一切,他们的情感健康就会处于危险之中。连锁反应就是他们的信心会不足”,由此可推断出这会影响发育中的孩子的情感核心。分析选项可知,F项符合语境,故选F项。
④根据空后的内容“They should open up conversation and focus on the feelings of kids and not their behaviors.”可知,父母要开明,不能强迫孩子。分析选项可知,C项符合语境,故选C项。
⑤空后提到“We can help them celebrate and enjoy all the small steps it took to get there, and encourage a more positive outlook and healthy competition.”可知,B项符合语境,故选B项。
