At first, I didn't recognize the symptoms that we all had in common.Friends mentioned that they were having trouble concentrating.It wasn't burnout — we still had energy.It wasn't depression — we didn't feel hopeless.We just felt somewhat joyless and aimless.
It turns out that there's a name for that: languishing.
Languishing is a sense of inactivity and emptiness.It feels as if you're muddling (混淆) your days, looking at your life through a foggy windshield (挡风玻璃)．
In psychology, we think about mental health on a spectrum (范围) from depression to flourishing (健康幸福)．Flourishing is the peak of well being.Depression is the valley of ill being.Languishing is the neglected middle child of mental health.It's the emptiness between depression and flourishing — the absence of well being.You're not functioning at full capacity.Languishing dulls your motivation, disrupts your ability to focus, and greatly increases the possibility that you'll cut back on work.
Part of the danger is that when you're languishing, you might not notice the dulling of delight or the decreasing of drive.You don't catch yourself slipping slowly into aloneness; you're indifferent to your indifference.When you can't see your own suffering, you don't seek help or even do much to help yourself.
So what can we do about it People who become more focused on their work manage to avoid languishing.Interrupted attention is an enemy of engagement and excellence.To go beyond languishing, give yourself some uninterrupted time.It clears out constant distractions (使人分心的事) and gives us the freedom to focus.And try starting with small wins by focusing on a challenge that matters to you — an interesting project, a worthwhile goal, or a meaningful conversation.
We still have a lot to learn about what causes languishing and how to cure it, but naming it might be a first step.It could help to defog our vision, giving us a clearer window into what has been an unclear experience.It could remind us that we weren't alone: languishing is common and shared.
By acknowledging that so many of us are languishing, we can start giving voice to quiet despair and lighting a path out of the emptiness.
4．Which definition can best suit the word “languishing”？
A．Feeling exhausted and without hope.
B．Becoming weaker or failing to improve.
C．Making someone want to achieve something.
D．Going beyond the usual limits of something.
5．Which of the following can be described as languishing
A．Seeking help when you are suffering.
B．Realizing that you are not alone in despair.
C．Giving yourself some uninterrupted time.
D．Being indifferent to your lack of enthusiasm.
6．What could psychologists do to help solve the problems of languishing
A．Give people more freedom.
B．See it as depression.
C．Name it clearly.
D．Remove it from a spectrum.
7．Why is it significant to know languishing is common and shared
A．We can let the silent despair speak up and find a way out.
B．We can continue to learn more about languishing.
C．We can see it as basically the same as depression.
D．We can study it as the complete opposite of flourishing.
C
Are you always looking at your mobile phone as you're walking, playing with it as you're studying, and reluctant to put it down as you go to bed Tired of a life controlled by their mobile phones, many young people seem to be intent on working out how to overcome it.
One of the popular gadgets (装置) is the mobile phone isolation box. Users simply put their mobile phone in the box and set a time lock that will ban them from having access to the phone for a set time. Some boxes allow users to respond to emergencies. These isolation boxes can be adapted to almost all types of mobile phones on the market. The locking time generally ranges from one minute to 12 hours, and the price is generally about 100－200 yuan. One of the sellers says: “Our main customers are students and office workers. They usually ask for engraving some inspirational quotes on the box when buying. Some parents who feel their children are wasting time on social media and ruining their studies are also buying them. This physical box is much better than software on phones.” The seller's after sales comment section is filled with positive comment from buyers who say the box has helped them become more self disciplined.
However, Lin Tianqi, a college student says, because the lock time is set by users, whether they can achieve their goal depends on the individual. A five hour lockup is too harsh, she says, but one of her friends locks the box for just 30 minutes, she seems to delude herself. Liang Wenyu, another college student, sneers at these “flashy” attempts. “Regardless of the effectiveness of the isolation box, you might as well lock yourself up. As simple as that.” he says. “I can understand why they need these blood pumping quotes on the box — because they lack discipline. How about simply taking back your time？Self disciplined people are bound to succeed without such gimmicks.”
8．What can we learn about the mobile phone isolation box
A．It adapts to all types of mobile phones.
B．It allows users to use their mobile phones for a set time.
C．It has good market prospects.
D．It helps users abandon their mobile phones.
9．What does the underlined word “delude” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Abandon. B．Enjoy.
C．Satisfy. D．Cheat.
10．What can we infer from the last paragraph
A．The lock time is a key factor for self discipline.
B．Self discipline is up to the person, not an isolation box.
C．Two college students' views on isolation box are unreasonable.
D．The isolation box needs improving due to its ineffectiveness.
11．What's the main idea of the passage
A．Many young people attempt to stay away from mobile phones.
B．Different views on the mobile phone isolation box.
C．The mobile phone isolation box is used to help reduce mobile phone use.
D．Self discipline is of great importance.
D
We have a strange obsession (迷恋) with the concept of perfection.Driven by our culture, we struggle for an unattainable ideal: If I had the perfect parents, perfect grades, perfect ..., then I would be happy.We seek what we can't have without remembering that we don't actually need to be perfect.Imperfection allows us to be human.
Parents, teachers and other high achieving peers will have us believe that we must be perfect if we wish to remain competitive.However, what job or school requires you to develop a cure for some form of cancer by the age of 18 Although those grades would be admirable achievements, are they worth losing sleep over We feel like we need the perfect grades to get into the perfect college that will provide us with the perfect education necessary to obtain the perfect job.Making use of our thirst for perfection, some college and career industries have arisen claiming to help us reach our goals.
The truth is, you only need to be good enough.Don't worry about anything secondary to your passions.You won't become an expert in anything if you spend your time trying to succeed in everything you do.You can only become an expert when you devote your time to the project that truly brings you joy.
As members of this society, we have a responsibility to be excellent in what we do, not perfect.Although perfection can be a goal, it should not be the only goal.We only have 24 hours in a day and seven days in a week.Thus, we need to prioritize (优先处理) what we want to do and cut out the activities we cannot do.
With everything, though, make sure you're doing enough.Going after your passions is not a reason to completely give up anything else.Try as hard as you can and let your future take its own course.Worry about your task at hand and you will be successful in achieving your dreams.Most of all, remember that you're going to be okay.
12．It is implied in paragraph 1 that there is a culture where ________.
A．students are driven to learn concepts
B．great importance is attached to perfection
C．imperfect people aren't happy at all
D．perfect grades result from remembering facts
13．We can infer from the second paragraph that ________.
A．a perfect grade is worth losing sleep over
B．the whole college and career industries are perfect
C．some schools ask students to invent some medicine
D．someone is profiting from our search for perfection
14．According to the author, we should ________.
A．worry about our future dreams
B．deal with what we hope to do first
C．set a goal to be a success in our life
D．see becoming perfect as our responsibility
15．What might be the most suitable title for the text
A．How to Be Perfect
B．Being Enough Is Enough
C．Finding Your Own Passions
D．Giving up Your Long term Goals

__20__
Don't forget the importance of allowing yourself to have some breathing room and a break once in a while.Practice self care by doing things like spending time with friends or having your hair cut.The idea is refreshing yourself so that you don't burn out.Pushing yourself too hard will only worsen your rut.Recharge your battery by remembering to refresh yourself.

The next weekend my niece and nephew, Sue and Mike, aged 6 and 7, came and suddenly I had an idea. I might let them give out these flowers to people they met on the street, and in this way they could learn how to be friendly to others. So I told them about my plan and explained that these flowers would make people feel happy and smile. They loved the idea and were eager to have a try. So at once we took every single flower and tied a smile card to it. We then went to the street with the flowers.
The first flower went to a policeman. As soon as she saw the policeman, my niece ran up to him and handed him a flower. His smile was so big, but hers was even bigger!
In no time, we neared the end of our flowers. It was lunch time and we went to Subway for lunch. There the kids gave a flower to the waitress, who was really excited to receive the flower. As we were eating our lunch, the waitress came up to the kids with two big chocolate cookies! She said the chocolate cookies were for them and that she really liked the flower! As they ate the cookies, my niece and nephew looked at me with the biggest smiles I had ever seen.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式作答。
With just one flower left, I said it should be given to the person who needed it most.
It turned out to be a great day for us.

9．选D 词义猜测题。根据画线词所在句“A five hour lockup ... herself.”中的“but”可推知，把手机锁在箱子里5个小时时间太长、太苛刻，但只锁30分钟似乎又太短，太敷衍，所以她的朋友是自欺欺人，故画线词与cheat同义，表示“欺骗”。
10．选B 推理判断题。根据最后一段中Lin Tianqi的观点“the lock time ... individual”和Liang Wenyu的观点“I can understand ... gimmicks.”可推知，自律是由人决定的，而不是靠隔离盒。

14．选B 细节理解题。根据倒数第二段中的“Thus, we need to prioritize (优先处理) what we want to do and cut out the activities we cannot do.”可知，我们的时间有限，因此需要首先做那些我们想要做的事情。
15．选B 标题归纳题。本文主要讨论了是否应该追求完美。作者认为追求完美应该是一个目标，而不应该是唯一的目标。人们应该发挥自己的优势在自己感兴趣的领域做到最好，没有必要也没有时间和精力去追求完美。故B项最适合作文章标题。
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章就如何避免刻板乏味的生活以及如何让人们找回自我，提出了一些切实可行的建议。
16．选D 根据下文中的“Getting stuck in a rut”可知，此处应讲到a rut的具体内容，再结合空前的“They may feel ...don't like.”可推知，D项“绝大部分人把这种圈子称为刻板乏味的生活”承上启下，符合语境。
17．选C 根据该段小标题Make a Change及空前的“The first step ...getting you down.”可知，C项“它可能是你生活的地方”既承接上句，也与空后的“那样的话，你应该搬到其他地方”紧密衔接。
18．选F 根据空前一句“Acceptance doesn't ...never change.”可知，接受并不意味着你接受的事物永远不会改变，故F项“这意味着你没有在与现实抗争”承接上文，符合语境。
19．选G 根据该段小标题和空前一句可知，如果你感觉状态不佳，那么可能与你对待身体的方式有关。故此空应提出好好对待身体的具体做法。空后提到“你可以通过吃好点或多参加运动来实现这一点”，G项“考虑在你的生活方式上做些改变”承上启下，符合语境。
20．选A 根据下文内容尤其是“Practice self care by ...your hair cut.”可知，作者建议给自己留一些呼吸的空间，要偶尔休息一下。要和朋友聚一聚或理理发等来养成自我调理的习惯。故A项“练习自我调理”适合作本段的小标题。
第二部分
语篇解读：本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过小男孩选贴纸一事，赞扬了其知足常乐的品质，并结合自己买电脑的经历，进一步论述了“想要”和“需要”的区别。
21．选B 根据上文“I am a guide at the California Academy of Sciences”可知，作者是这里的导游。此处应是作者陪同这家人参观学院的沼泽地展览。
22．选D 根据下文中的“asked many questions about it”可判断，他对燕子很着迷，所以才会问很多关于它的问题。
23．选A 由上文可知，小男孩对燕子很着迷，看到燕子贴纸应是很快就选择了它。
24．选D 根据空后的“all the sticker choices”可知，小男孩的弟弟应该是浏览了所有的贴纸。
25．选C 根据文中小男孩的话“I didn't see the frog sticker”可知，小男孩应该也喜欢青蛙贴纸，不过之前没看到。再结合空前的immediately可知，此处应是小男孩的父亲立即催促他再要一张贴纸。
26．选B 根据下文“such wisdom, grace, and ______were all from an eight year old boy”可知，作者惊讶于一个八岁的小男孩竟然拥有这些品质。
27．选A 根据上文“No, I'm happy with what I have”可知，小男孩并不贪心，知足于自己已有的东西。gratitude感恩；patience耐心；concentration专注；respect尊重。
28．选D 上文提到“小男孩体现出的智慧、优雅和感恩的品质令作者惊讶”，此处用“we”来与之形成对比，作为成年人的我们却常常忘记知足于自己所拥有的东西。本句中的“forgetfulness”与选项D为派生词复现。
29．选C 由空前的“spread”可知，此处是说我们使“不满”这种情绪像传染病一样扩散开来。infection 本义为“传染病，感染”，文中指的是“不满”这种情绪像传染病一样，某一个人不满的情绪会带动周围的人都不满足于自己已拥有的东西。此处灵活运用了infection的含义。
30．选C 结合上文“I recently purchased my first laptop computer”可知，此处是讲述作者购买电脑的经历，因此应是与售货员讨论。
31．选A 作者此处想表达如果自己的旧电脑能正常运转，为什么还想要一台新电脑？空处应引导条件状语从句。
32．选B 由下文中的“I won't ________ need a new laptop in two years but I ‘will probably want one’．”可知，作者认为自己两年内不一定会需要新电脑，但是也许会想要新电脑，因此“想要”才是关键。下文反复出现的“want”与选项B是原词复现。
33．选D 两年内作者的旧电脑仍可能正常运转，因此作者不一定需要一台新的笔记本电脑，但“可能想要一台”。
34．选C 由上文中的“you'll probably want a new one anyway”可知，此处是说作者可能想要“新”东西，但是却不一定是为了满足需要。因为新东西通常是有光泽的，所以此处用“闪亮的东西”指代“新东西”。
35．选B 由上文“What I do desperately need is the peace of mind.”可知，作者迫切需要的是内心的平静，确定自己每次一时兴起的购买或占有欲是出于“想要”还是“需要”。
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍青少年如何找到正确的娱乐活动和真正的朋友，以及如何避免来自同伴的负面压力。
36．confusing 考查形容词。 空处应用形容词修饰stages；修饰物，表示“令人困惑的”应用confusing。
37．exploration 考查名词。空处应填名词作宾语，exploration“探索”符合题意，且表示抽象概念，为不可数名词。
38．is 考查时态和主谓一致。空处为定语从句的谓语动词，“one of＋名词”作主语，谓语动词用单数，且本句陈述客观事实，故填is。
39．However/Nevertheless 考查副词。结合语境和上文“Some pastimes have no moral implications (影响)”可知，上下文为转折关系，故应用however/nevertheless连接。 位于句首，首字母大写。
40．where 考查定语从句。 空处引导限制性定语从句，且在从句中作地点状语，修饰先行词party，故应用关系副词where。
41．potentially 考查副词。 修饰动词causes应用副词，在句中作状语。
42．from 考查介词。 此处为固定短语stop sb. from doing sth.“阻止某人做某事”。
43．to avoid 考查非谓语动词。 结合句意和句子结构可知，此处应用不定式作目的状语，即采取措施的目的是避免来自同伴的负面压力。
44．yourself/yourselves 考查代词。 此处是祈使句，暗含的主语是you，当宾语和主语所指相同时，宾语用反身代词，此处指“你(们)自己”，故用yourself/yourselves。
45．what 考查宾语从句。空处引导宾语从句，从句缺少宾语，且指代事物，应用连接代词what引导。

第一节 参考范文：
My opinion on smartphone addiction among teenagers
Nowadays, young people have become more dependent on smartphones, resulting in conflicts between them and their parents sometimes.Here is my opinion on how to deal with such conflicts.
First of all, it is necessary for us to talk with our parents and set rules on how to use our phones.Once reached, the agreement has to be strictly followed.Being more active and participating in more activities will also help reduce our reliance on phones.Last but not least, turn to professionals for help, if necessary.
No matter what approach we use, we have to realize that it is our parents who we should always trust and depend on in life.
第二节 参考范文：
With just one flower left, I said it should be given to the person who needed it most. Just then, my nephew caught sight of an old woman in a wheelchair nearby. “I think she's the very person for the flower. She lives a hard life because of bad health. She needs smiles most，” said my nephew. With these words, my nephew, followed by my niece, took the flower up to her. You can imagine how happy the old woman looked! She smiled, and gave each of the kids a big kiss.
It turned out to be a great day for us. We spread a lot of smiles by giving out flowers, and received a lot of smiles in return. The flowers not only made us feel good about ourselves, but also made 40 other people feel happy. I feel there is nothing more enjoyable than being friendly to people. Meanwhile, the kids learned an important lesson in the process. In fact, they can't wait until next time they have such a chance again. They want to give out more flowers!

At first, I didn't recognize the symptoms that we all had in common.Friends mentioned that they were having trouble concentrating.It wasn't burnout — we still had energy.It wasn't depression — we didn't feel hopeless.We just felt somewhat joyless and aimless.
It turns out that there's a name for that: languishing.
Languishing is a sense of inactivity and emptiness.It feels as if you're muddling (混淆) your days, looking at your life through a foggy windshield (挡风玻璃)．
In psychology, we think about mental health on a spectrum (范围) from depression to flourishing (健康幸福)．Flourishing is the peak of well being.Depression is the valley of ill being.Languishing is the neglected middle child of mental health.It's the emptiness between depression and flourishing — the absence of well being.You're not functioning at full capacity.Languishing dulls your motivation, disrupts your ability to focus, and greatly increases the possibility that you'll cut back on work.
Part of the danger is that when you're languishing, you might not notice the dulling of delight or the decreasing of drive.You don't catch yourself slipping slowly into aloneness; you're indifferent to your indifference.When you can't see your own suffering, you don't seek help or even do much to help yourself.
So what can we do about it People who become more focused on their work manage to avoid languishing.Interrupted attention is an enemy of engagement and excellence.To go beyond languishing, give yourself some uninterrupted time.It clears out constant distractions (使人分心的事) and gives us the freedom to focus.And try starting with small wins by focusing on a challenge that matters to you — an interesting project, a worthwhile goal, or a meaningful conversation.
We still have a lot to learn about what causes languishing and how to cure it, but naming it might be a first step.It could help to defog our vision, giving us a clearer window into what has been an unclear experience.It could remind us that we weren't alone: languishing is common and shared.
By acknowledging that so many of us are languishing, we can start giving voice to quiet despair and lighting a path out of the emptiness.
4．Which definition can best suit the word “languishing”？
A．Feeling exhausted and without hope.
B．Becoming weaker or failing to improve.
C．Making someone want to achieve something.
D．Going beyond the usual limits of something.
5．Which of the following can be described as languishing
A．Seeking help when you are suffering.
B．Realizing that you are not alone in despair.
C．Giving yourself some uninterrupted time.
D．Being indifferent to your lack of enthusiasm.
6．What could psychologists do to help solve the problems of languishing
A．Give people more freedom.
B．See it as depression.
C．Name it clearly.
D．Remove it from a spectrum.
7．Why is it significant to know languishing is common and shared
A．We can let the silent despair speak up and find a way out.
B．We can continue to learn more about languishing.
C．We can see it as basically the same as depression.
D．We can study it as the complete opposite of flourishing.

Are you always looking at your mobile phone as you're walking, playing with it as you're studying, and reluctant to put it down as you go to bed Tired of a life controlled by their mobile phones, many young people seem to be intent on working out how to overcome it.
One of the popular gadgets (装置) is the mobile phone isolation box. Users simply put their mobile phone in the box and set a time lock that will ban them from having access to the phone for a set time. Some boxes allow users to respond to emergencies. These isolation boxes can be adapted to almost all types of mobile phones on the market. The locking time generally ranges from one minute to 12 hours, and the price is generally about 100－200 yuan. One of the sellers says: “Our main customers are students and office workers. They usually ask for engraving some inspirational quotes on the box when buying. Some parents who feel their children are wasting time on social media and ruining their studies are also buying them. This physical box is much better than software on phones.” The seller's after sales comment section is filled with positive comment from buyers who say the box has helped them become more self disciplined.
However, Lin Tianqi, a college student says, because the lock time is set by users, whether they can achieve their goal depends on the individual. A five hour lockup is too harsh, she says, but one of her friends locks the box for just 30 minutes, she seems to delude herself. Liang Wenyu, another college student, sneers at these “flashy” attempts. “Regardless of the effectiveness of the isolation box, you might as well lock yourself up. As simple as that.” he says. “I can understand why they need these blood pumping quotes on the box — because they lack discipline. How about simply taking back your time？Self disciplined people are bound to succeed without such gimmicks.”
8．What can we learn about the mobile phone isolation box
A．It adapts to all types of mobile phones.
B．It allows users to use their mobile phones for a set time.
C．It has good market prospects.
D．It helps users abandon their mobile phones.
9．What does the underlined word “delude” in paragraph 3 probably mean
A．Abandon. B．Enjoy.
C．Satisfy. D．Cheat.
10．What can we infer from the last paragraph
A．The lock time is a key factor for self discipline.
B．Self discipline is up to the person, not an isolation box.
C．Two college students' views on isolation box are unreasonable.
D．The isolation box needs improving due to its ineffectiveness.
11．What's the main idea of the passage
A．Many young people attempt to stay away from mobile phones.
B．Different views on the mobile phone isolation box.
C．The mobile phone isolation box is used to help reduce mobile phone use.
D．Self discipline is of great importance.
D
We have a strange obsession (迷恋) with the concept of perfection.Driven by our culture, we struggle for an unattainable ideal: If I had the perfect parents, perfect grades, perfect ..., then I would be happy.We seek what we can't have without remembering that we don't actually need to be perfect.Imperfection allows us to be human.
Parents, teachers and other high achieving peers will have us believe that we must be perfect if we wish to remain competitive.However, what job or school requires you to develop a cure for some form of cancer by the age of 18 Although those grades would be admirable achievements, are they worth losing sleep over We feel like we need the perfect grades to get into the perfect college that will provide us with the perfect education necessary to obtain the perfect job.Making use of our thirst for perfection, some college and career industries have arisen claiming to help us reach our goals.
The truth is, you only need to be good enough.Don't worry about anything secondary to your passions.You won't become an expert in anything if you spend your time trying to succeed in everything you do.You can only become an expert when you devote your time to the project that truly brings you joy.
As members of this society, we have a responsibility to be excellent in what we do, not perfect.Although perfection can be a goal, it should not be the only goal.We only have 24 hours in a day and seven days in a week.Thus, we need to prioritize (优先处理) what we want to do and cut out the activities we cannot do.
With everything, though, make sure you're doing enough.Going after your passions is not a reason to completely give up anything else.Try as hard as you can and let your future take its own course.Worry about your task at hand and you will be successful in achieving your dreams.Most of all, remember that you're going to be okay.
12．It is implied in paragraph 1 that there is a culture where ________.
A．students are driven to learn concepts
B．great importance is attached to perfection
C．imperfect people aren't happy at all
D．perfect grades result from remembering facts
13．We can infer from the second paragraph that ________.
A．a perfect grade is worth losing sleep over
B．the whole college and career industries are perfect
C．some schools ask students to invent some medicine
D．someone is profiting from our search for perfection
14．According to the author, we should ________.
A．worry about our future dreams
B．deal with what we hope to do first
C．set a goal to be a success in our life
D．see becoming perfect as our responsibility
15．What might be the most suitable title for the text
A．How to Be Perfect
B．Being Enough Is Enough
C．Finding Your Own Passions
D．Giving up Your Long term Goals

Recently I graduated from high school, and as a gift I received a huge bunch of flowers, 40 to be exact! I had so many that I didn't know what to do with them. The next weekend my niece and nephew, Sue and Mike, aged 6 and 7, came and suddenly I had an idea. I might let them give out these flowers to people they met on the street, and in this way they could learn how to be friendly to others. So I told them about my plan and explained that these flowers would make people feel happy and smile. They loved the idea and were eager to have a try. So at once we took every single flower and tied a smile card to it. We then went to the street with the flowers.
The first flower went to a policeman. As soon as she saw the policeman, my niece ran up to him and handed him a flower. His smile was so big, but hers was even bigger!
In no time, we neared the end of our flowers. It was lunch time and we went to Subway for lunch. There the kids gave a flower to the waitress, who was really excited to receive the flower. As we were eating our lunch, the waitress came up to the kids with two big chocolate cookies! She said the chocolate cookies were for them and that she really liked the flower! As they ate the cookies, my niece and nephew looked at me with the biggest smiles I had ever seen.
注意：1.续写词数应为150左右； 2.请按如下格式作答。
With just one flower left, I said it should be given to the person who needed it most.
It turned out to be a great day for us.

15．选B 标题归纳题。本文主要讨论了是否应该追求完美。作者认为追求完美应该是一个目标，而不应该是唯一的目标。人们应该发挥自己的优势在自己感兴趣的领域做到最好，没有必要也没有时间和精力去追求完美。故B项最适合作文章标题。
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章就如何避免刻板乏味的生活以及如何让人们找回自我，提出了一些切实可行的建议。
16．选D 根据下文中的“Getting stuck in a rut”可知，此处应讲到a rut的具体内容，再结合空前的“They may feel ...don't like.”可推知，D项“绝大部分人把这种圈子称为刻板乏味的生活”承上启下，符合语境。
17．选C 根据该段小标题Make a Change及空前的“The first step ...getting you down.”可知，C项“它可能是你生活的地方”既承接上句，也与空后的“那样的话，你应该搬到其他地方”紧密衔接。
18．选F 根据空前一句“Acceptance doesn't ...never change.”可知，接受并不意味着你接受的事物永远不会改变，故F项“这意味着你没有在与现实抗争”承接上文，符合语境。
19．选G 根据该段小标题和空前一句可知，如果你感觉状态不佳，那么可能与你对待身体的方式有关。故此空应提出好好对待身体的具体做法。空后提到“你可以通过吃好点或多参加运动来实现这一点”，G项“考虑在你的生活方式上做些改变”承上启下，符合语境。
20．选A 根据下文内容尤其是“Practice self care by ...your hair cut.”可知，作者建议给自己留一些呼吸的空间，要偶尔休息一下。要和朋友聚一聚或理理发等来养成自我调理的习惯。故A项“练习自我调理”适合作本段的小标题。
第二部分
语篇解读：本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过小男孩选贴纸一事，赞扬了其知足常乐的品质，并结合自己买电脑的经历，进一步论述了“想要”和“需要”的区别。
21．选B 根据上文“I am a guide at the California Academy of Sciences”可知，作者是这里的导游。此处应是作者陪同这家人参观学院的沼泽地展览。
22．选D 根据下文中的“asked many questions about it”可判断，他对燕子很着迷，所以才会问很多关于它的问题。
23．选A 由上文可知，小男孩对燕子很着迷，看到燕子贴纸应是很快就选择了它。
24．选D 根据空后的“all the sticker choices”可知，小男孩的弟弟应该是浏览了所有的贴纸。
25．选C 根据文中小男孩的话“I didn't see the frog sticker”可知，小男孩应该也喜欢青蛙贴纸，不过之前没看到。再结合空前的immediately可知，此处应是小男孩的父亲立即催促他再要一张贴纸。
26．选B 根据下文“such wisdom, grace, and ______were all from an eight year old boy”可知，作者惊讶于一个八岁的小男孩竟然拥有这些品质。
27．选A 根据上文“No, I'm happy with what I have”可知，小男孩并不贪心，知足于自己已有的东西。gratitude感恩；patience耐心；concentration专注；respect尊重。
28．选D 上文提到“小男孩体现出的智慧、优雅和感恩的品质令作者惊讶”，此处用“we”来与之形成对比，作为成年人的我们却常常忘记知足于自己所拥有的东西。本句中的“forgetfulness”与选项D为派生词复现。
29．选C 由空前的“spread”可知，此处是说我们使“不满”这种情绪像传染病一样扩散开来。infection 本义为“传染病，感染”，文中指的是“不满”这种情绪像传染病一样，某一个人不满的情绪会带动周围的人都不满足于自己已拥有的东西。此处灵活运用了infection的含义。
30．选C 结合上文“I recently purchased my first laptop computer”可知，此处是讲述作者购买电脑的经历，因此应是与售货员讨论。
31．选A 作者此处想表达如果自己的旧电脑能正常运转，为什么还想要一台新电脑？空处应引导条件状语从句。
32．选B 由下文中的“I won't ________ need a new laptop in two years but I ‘will probably want one’．”可知，作者认为自己两年内不一定会需要新电脑，但是也许会想要新电脑，因此“想要”才是关键。下文反复出现的“want”与选项B是原词复现。
33．选D 两年内作者的旧电脑仍可能正常运转，因此作者不一定需要一台新的笔记本电脑，但“可能想要一台”。
34．选C 由上文中的“you'll probably want a new one anyway”可知，此处是说作者可能想要“新”东西，但是却不一定是为了满足需要。因为新东西通常是有光泽的，所以此处用“闪亮的东西”指代“新东西”。
35．选B 由上文“What I do desperately need is the peace of mind.”可知，作者迫切需要的是内心的平静，确定自己每次一时兴起的购买或占有欲是出于“想要”还是“需要”。
语篇解读：本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍青少年如何找到正确的娱乐活动和真正的朋友，以及如何避免来自同伴的负面压力。
36．confusing 考查形容词。 空处应用形容词修饰stages；修饰物，表示“令人困惑的”应用confusing。
37．exploration 考查名词。空处应填名词作宾语，exploration“探索”符合题意，且表示抽象概念，为不可数名词。
38．is 考查时态和主谓一致。空处为定语从句的谓语动词，“one of＋名词”作主语，谓语动词用单数，且本句陈述客观事实，故填is。
39．However/Nevertheless 考查副词。结合语境和上文“Some pastimes have no moral implications (影响)”可知，上下文为转折关系，故应用however/nevertheless连接。 位于句首，首字母大写。
40．where 考查定语从句。 空处引导限制性定语从句，且在从句中作地点状语，修饰先行词party，故应用关系副词where。
41．potentially 考查副词。 修饰动词causes应用副词，在句中作状语。
42．from 考查介词。 此处为固定短语stop sb. from doing sth.“阻止某人做某事”。
43．to avoid 考查非谓语动词。 结合句意和句子结构可知，此处应用不定式作目的状语，即采取措施的目的是避免来自同伴的负面压力。
44．yourself/yourselves 考查代词。 此处是祈使句，暗含的主语是you，当宾语和主语所指相同时，宾语用反身代词，此处指“你(们)自己”，故用yourself/yourselves。
45．what 考查宾语从句。空处引导宾语从句，从句缺少宾语，且指代事物，应用连接代词what引导。

第一节 参考范文：
My opinion on smartphone addiction among teenagers
Nowadays, young people have become more dependent on smartphones, resulting in conflicts between them and their parents sometimes.Here is my opinion on how to deal with such conflicts.
First of all, it is necessary for us to talk with our parents and set rules on how to use our phones.Once reached, the agreement has to be strictly followed.Being more active and participating in more activities will also help reduce our reliance on phones.Last but not least, turn to professionals for help, if necessary.
No matter what approach we use, we have to realize that it is our parents who we should always trust and depend on in life.
第二节 参考范文：
With just one flower left, I said it should be given to the person who needed it most. Just then, my nephew caught sight of an old woman in a wheelchair nearby. “I think she's the very person for the flower. She lives a hard life because of bad health. She needs smiles most，” said my nephew. With these words, my nephew, followed by my niece, took the flower up to her. You can imagine how happy the old woman looked! She smiled, and gave each of the kids a big kiss.
It turned out to be a great day for us. We spread a lot of smiles by giving out flowers, and received a lot of smiles in return. The flowers not only made us feel good about ourselves, but also made 40 other people feel happy. I feel there is nothing more enjoyable than being friendly to people. Meanwhile, the kids learned an important lesson in the process. In fact, they can't wait until next time they have such a chance again. They want to give out more flowers!
