Loneliness，a natural feeling，is not something most people want to experience. When you feel lonely as a result of missing a loved one or a place，or preparing for a time spent away from your friends and family，here are some suggestions for you to escape it.
Focus on your health. Studies have shown that poor sleep，lack(缺乏) of physical activities and unhealthy food can let you feel tired and sad，causing the feeling of loneliness. Try to get eight hours of sleep every night，try to take part in at least 30 minutes of physical activities every day，and don’t eat junk food. Eating more fruit and vegetables will also help.
Bring an old hobby back to life. It’s much more difficult to feel lonely if you’re actively enjoying an activity，especially the one that you are good at. If you’ve got a hobby that you love，try to spare time for your hobby even if you are busy，such as reading，playing a sport，cooking and painting.
Avoid staying at home all day long. Spending your time in nature will probably improve your mood(情绪) and help you get over loneliness. Sunshine makes you feel happier and less focused on your loneliness. You can go hiking，go boating or go on a bike ride if you are not interested in just walking around. You may go for a coffee with your friends or even make big plans so that you have events to look forward to. First，you can think about the possible activities you might want to take part in. Then，spend a few days planning out the event，so that you are fully prepared and stress free. If possible，include other people in your plan to make your activity more interesting.
All in all，it seems that facing your own loneliness is the first step to avoid loneliness. Do your best to follow the things above. It takes efforts，but it is worth your try.
( )54. What does the underlined word “escape” in Paragraph 1 mean
A．Improve. B．Avoid. C．Receive.
( )55. According to Paragraph 2，which of the following may lead to loneliness
A．Junk food. B．Enough sleep. C．Physical activities.
( )56. What can we learn from Paragraph 4
A．Spending time planning out the event will make us feel stressed.
B．Spending time at home alone can help avoid loneliness.
C．Enjoy the sunshine and we can feel less lonely.
( )57. What could be the best title for the text
A．A Scientific Report About Loneliness B．Tips for Choosing a Proper Hobby
C．Advice on Staying Away from Loneliness
第二节(共5个小题；每小题2分，满分10分)
根据短文内容，从框内6个选项中选出能分别填入5个小题空白处的最佳选项。
A．Neither could my parents. B．We should keep the stress off ourselves. C．Surely happiness is the purpose of living. D．That may make us less satisfied with our lives. E．Happiness arrives when we are least expecting it. F．So it’s necessary for us to accept sad feelings as part of life.
Recently，teenagers face many kinds of problems. Like many of them，I was once troubled with worries and dissatisfaction. Few people could understand my feelings. 58. ___
“The problem with your generation is that you always expect to be happy，” my mother once said. 59. ___Shouldn’t we try hard to achieve it
But now I have noticed a change in my thinking. I gradually realize what my mother said is correct. Over these years，many studies have shown that we are crazy about happiness and high personal confidence. 60. ___In fact，we may often be happier when we stop focusing on happiness.
We should also reset our expectations of the future. Don’t expect miracles(奇迹)，and accept that no matter how hard we try，feelings of failure and unhappiness will appear from time to time. When we feel sad，it’s often because we have learned something painful but important. 61. ___At the same time，we should learn how to deal with them rather than trying to make them disappear.
62．___ As my mother tried to teach me all those years ago，“Prepare for the worst，hope for the best，and be unsurprised by everything in between. ”
第三节(共5个小题；每小题2分，满分10分)
阅读下面短文，根据其内容填空和回答问题。(63至66题每题答案不超过3个单词，67题须用完整句子回答。)
We all hate being bored. Most of us try hard to avoid it，and thanks to modern technology，there are now hundreds of ways to keep ourselves entertained(娱乐). People watch videos or play games on the way to work，check their phones when they’re in boring meetings，and talk with friends while they are doing boring tasks. But some scientists think we’re making a mistake. They believe that boring activities can be good for us.
Two scientists once experimented(进行实验) to test people’s creativity. They gave 140 people some plastic cups and asked them to think of different ways to use them. The people were divided into two groups. Half of them had to first spend 15 minutes doing some very boring activities. They had to read telephone numbers from a long list and copy them on a piece of paper.
The results of the experiment were interesting. The people who did the boring activities first were much more creative and had lots of ideas. Some people suggested wearing the cups as party
hats or filling them with fruit juice and freezing them to make popsicles(冰棍). However，the people who didn’t do any boring tasks found it hard to think of ways to use the cups.
A little boredom can be helpful for us. We shouldn’t be afraid of “doing nothing”．Many successful people do “boring” activities in their free time. For example，rock musician Jack White repairs furniture(家具). His hobby helps him relax and think of ideas for new songs.
However，you should do boring activities for only a short time，and you should avoid physical activities that make you feel tired. You can just make yourself a cup of tea，organize your paperwork，or look out of the window.
63．Most people don’t like ______________ and find lots of ways to keep themselves entertained.
64．The two scientists wanted to test ____________________ by doing the experiment.
65．In the experiment，people had more __________________ if they did the boring activities first.
66．The example of Jack White shows us that doing boring activities can be ___________ us.
67．Are you afraid of doing boring activities in your life？Why or why not

Some students thought we could get relaxed by communicating with parents and friends. And we could also go to the movies and go for a walk to relax ourselves. Other students said they would like to do sports or travel to get relaxed.
In my opinion，relaxing is important. When we are stressed out，we can’t study well. So we need to listen to music when we are under too much pressure. We can go shopping or take vacations，too. In this way，we can get relaxed and then get better grades and enjoy the colorful life.
