Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
When school started on that warm August day， I threw myself into everything I did， including playing volleyball.I decided to become beautiful， or at the very least， skinny.I stopped eating completely.Soon I began losing weight， which thrilled me， and I even grew to love the tiredness and light-headedness that came with my poor diet， for those feelings meant that I was winning.
As the season progressed， things had become tense between my head volleyball coach， Coach Smith， and me.She felt that something was wrong with my health.She talked with me about my eating and was angry that I wouldn’t listen to her when she tried to make me eat.She tried to persuade me in a determined way and so we fought constantly.Then my hunger started to affect my performance.I was so tired that practice and games were becoming a struggle.One afternoon， with hurt in her eyes， Coach Smith asked me what I had eaten and I told her nothing yet， but I was going to.She looked at me， disappointment in her eyes， knowing she couldn’t make me stop， and walked away.
A couple of weeks later I attended a formal dinner for our volleyball team.I stood there as my coach managed to say something nice about me.I realized then that I had ruined my senior year by being disrespectful， and I had probably ruined hers as well.So that evening I wrote her a letter apologizing and thanking her.
Then one Saturday， as I was reading in the library， I felt someone gently take my arm and say softly， “Lynn Jones， how are you doing？” I looked up and saw the familiar face.“Thanks for the letter，” she said.“It meant a lot.”
When I think of a coach， I think of someone above me， someone who gives instruction — not a friend.But Coach Smith is different， and， like any other good friend， she dealt with my problem in a determined way even when I hated her for it at that time.I didn’t deserve her kindness， but she gave it anyway.I will forever be grateful for her help， and now for her friendship.

When going shopping with a friend， Gail Heyman found herself quite awkward （令人尴尬的） when her friend asked her which dress she liked best.Her friend had a clear favorite — a dress that Heyman happened to dislike.“In that case， I lied and said that I like the same one，” said Heyman.
As Heyman’s experience shows， it might not matter all that much if you tell a white lie to make a friend feel good at times.But when it comes to the most meaningful relationships in your life， protecting a friend’s feelings at all costs can sometimes make them fail.For example， if a person is practicing for a job interview and it’s a few days before his interview， and he gives an answer that you think is not good at all and you don’t tell him because you don’t want to hurt his feelings， that’s really not very nice to him， right？ Because he has an opportunity to fix that thing.
If you know that lies can have results， why do you still lie often？ A study carried out by Tali Sharot， a professor at University College London， found that it’s because people just get used to it.One little lie can turn into bigger and bigger lies over time.“If you habituate emotionally， it will change your behavior，” says Sharot.
Sharot notes that if you’re worried about lying a bit too much， try and notice when you want to bend the truth （歪曲事实）.She thinks it’s best to do so when you’re not actually responding to those triggers （诱因）.Moving your attention away from shame and focusing more on your values can be a healthy way to start looking at this more actively.

When you set a foot outside of your door to drop trash， go to a social event or go for a walk， thoughts like “I hope I don’t see anyone I know” or “please don’t talk to me” may run through your mind.I’ve also said such things to myself.Sometimes the last thing you want to do is to talk with someone， especially someone new.
Why do we go out of our ways to avoid people？ Do we think meeting new people is a waste of time？ Or are we just lazy， thinking that meeting someone new really is a trouble？
Communication is the key to life.We have been told that many times.Take the past generations， like our parents， for example.They seem to take full advantage of that whole “communication” idea because they grew up talking face to face while Generation-Y grew up staring at screens.We spend hours of our days sitting on Facebook.We send messages to our friends and think about all of the things we want to say to certain people that we don’t have the courage to do in reality.
Nowadays， we are so caught up in our little circle of friends — our comfort zone.We love it that they laugh at our jokes， understand our feelings and can read our minds.Most importantly， they know when we want to be alone.They just get us.
Holding a conversation with someone new means agreeing with things that you don’t really believe and being someone you think they want you to be — it is， as I said before， a trouble.It takes up so much energy， and at some point or another， it is too tiring.
But meeting new people is important.Life is too short， so meet all the people you can meet， make the effort to go out and laugh.Remember， every “hello” leads to a smile — and a smile is worth a lot.
9.What do we learn about the author？
A.He likes to meet someone new.
B.He feels stressed out lately.
C.He’s active in attending social events.
D.He used to be afraid of talking to others.
10.What’s the problem of Generation-Y in the author’s eyes？
A.They rely on the Internet to socialize.
B.They are less confident in themselves.
C.They have difficulty in communicating.
D.They are unwilling to make new friends.
11.Why do many young people avoid meeting new people？
A.They think it troublesome. B.They are busy with their study.
C.They fear to disappoint their friends. D.They want to do meaningful work.
12.What’s the author’s purpose in writing the text？
A.To stress the importance of friends.
B.To give tips on how to meet new people.
C.To encourage people to meet new people.
D.To display the disadvantages of Generation-Y.
Ⅱ.阅读七选五
As we walk the “path of life”， we may sometimes wish to be alone with our own thoughts， for quiet periods of reflection can lead to personal improvement.However， social life is also important to us.More often than not， close friendships will help smooth out the sometimes rocky road that we are all meant to travel. 13
The first is the peace that comes from sharing our joy， sadness， success and failure with friends.Here， friendship has a double advantage. 14 And a trouble shared becomes a trouble halved！ With true friends， we feel free to share our joy and sadness in full measure.Indeed， the human heart depends on such opportunities for comfort and protection.
15 We often find it easier to recognize other people’s weaknesses than our own.As a result， if we are guided only by our own feelings， our judgments might be one-sided.On the other hand， our friends are better able to offer advice on important decisions.Also， when we want to talk our problems over with a friend， we have to put our thoughts into words first.This alone helps make our thoughts clearer and brings us a more thorough understanding of our problems.
The last is the help that a friend may offer in many different ways.There are so many things in life that can only be achieved with the help of friends.Friends may have many different ideas and skills. 16
By the way， it should be pointed out that enjoying the company of a crowd is not the same as being with friends. 17 The relationships should be carefully developed.In this way， we can better walk the “path of life” with the comfort， advice and help from our trusted friends.
A.Friends should be carefully chosen.
B.Then comes the recognition from our friends.
C.Happiness shared takes on a greater meaning.
D.Therefore， we can be much happier and wiser.
E.They can help us achieve what we want in our lives.
F.The next is the better judgement and understanding.
G.Generally speaking， close friendships have three “fruits”.

一键交友？
如果搬到一个新城镇意味着和你的朋友失去联系，你会作何感想？如果只有通过写信和漫长的等待才能得知远方朋友的消息，你会怎样？直到不久之前，现实情况还都是这样的。然而，得益于技术的进步，我们结交朋友、与朋友沟通的方式已经有了显著的变化。
如今，我们可以一边周游世界，一边仍可以与想要与之维持友谊的人们保持联系。社交媒体工具让我们能知晓朋友的动向、维系彼此间的友谊。而这一切只要有无线网络就可以实现。
数字时代也能使我们找到有相同兴趣（例如收集汽车模型或演奏不寻常的乐器）的人。不管我们的爱好是什么，我们都能在网上结识同好，哪怕他们住在世界的另一端。
然而，在网上跟别人“结为朋友”，这就意味着他们真的是你的朋友吗？
这要视情况而定。
如果人们在网上交换的个人信息都是真实的，那么答案是肯定的，这种友谊是真实且有意义的。但是我们需要记住，我们在社交媒体上看到的往往不是一个人的全部真面目。
在社交网站上，人们倾向于只发布正面的信息，塑造自己快乐且友善的形象。然而，微笑的照片会掩盖真正的问题。记住这句话：在网络上，没人知道你是一条狗。（网上展示的）年轻人形象的背后可能是个老人，而女性形象的背后也可能是个男人，我们分享个人信息的对象甚至可能是罪犯。
但是，这并不意味着我们应该因噎废食。尽管技术已经改变了我们结交朋友的方式，但友情的意义和我们对友谊的渴望依然不变。正如亚里士多德所说，没有人会选择没有朋友的生活，即使他拥有其他所有财富。

一键交友？
如果搬到一个新城镇意味着和你的朋友失去联系，你会作何感
想？如果只有通过写信和漫长的等待才能得知远方朋友的消息，你会
怎样？直到不久之前，现实情况还都是这样的。然而，得益于技术的
进步，我们结交朋友、与朋友沟通的方式已经有了显著的变化。
如今，我们可以一边周游世界，一边仍可以与想要与之维持友谊
的人们保持联系。社交媒体工具让我们能知晓朋友的动向、维系彼此
间的友谊。而这一切只要有无线网络就可以实现。
数字时代也能使我们找到有相同兴趣（例如收集汽车模型或演奏
不寻常的乐器）的人。不管我们的爱好是什么，我们都能在网上结识
同好，哪怕他们住在世界的另一端。
然而，在网上跟别人“结为朋友”，这就意味着他们真的是你的
朋友吗？
这要视情况而定。
如果人们在网上交换的个人信息都是真实的，那么答案是肯定
的，这种友谊是真实且有意义的。但是我们需要记住，我们在社交媒
体上看到的往往不是一个人的全部真面目。
在社交网站上，人们倾向于只发布正面的信息，塑造自己快乐且
友善的形象。然而，微笑的照片会掩盖真正的问题。记住这句话：在
网络上，没人知道你是一条狗。（网上展示的）年轻人形象的背后可
能是个老人，而女性形象的背后也可能是个男人，我们分享个人信息
的对象甚至可能是罪犯。
但是，这并不意味着我们应该因噎废食。尽管技术已经改变了我
们结交朋友的方式，但友情的意义和我们对友谊的渴望依然不变。正
如亚里士多德所说，没有人会选择没有朋友的生活，即使他拥有其他
所有财富。

Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
When school started on that warm August day， I threw myself into
everything I did， including playing volleyball.I decided to become
beautiful， or at the very least， skinny.I stopped eating completely.Soon
I began losing weight， which thrilled me， and I even grew to love the
tiredness and light-headedness that came with my poor diet， for those
feelings meant that I was winning.
As the season progressed， things had become tense between my
head volleyball coach， Coach Smith， and me.She felt that something
was wrong with my health.She talked with me about my eating and was
angry that I wouldn’t listen to her when she tried to make me eat.She
tried to persuade me in a determined way and so we fought
constantly.Then my hunger started to affect my performance.I was so
tired that practice and games were becoming a struggle.One afternoon，
with hurt in her eyes， Coach Smith asked me what I had eaten and I told
her nothing yet， but I was going to.She looked at me， disappointment
in her eyes， knowing she couldn’t make me stop， and walked away.
A couple of weeks later I attended a formal dinner for our volleyball
team.I stood there as my coach managed to say something nice about me.I
realized then that I had ruined my senior year by being disrespectful， and
I had probably ruined hers as well.So that evening I wrote her a letter
apologizing and thanking her.
Then one Saturday， as I was reading in the library， I felt someone
gently take my arm and say softly， “Lynn Jones， how are you
doing？” I looked up and saw the familiar face.“Thanks for the
letter，” she said.“It meant a lot.”
When I think of a coach， I think of someone above me， someone
who gives instruction — not a friend.But Coach Smith is different，
and， like any other good friend， she dealt with my problem in a
determined way even when I hated her for it at that time.I didn’t deserve
her kindness， but she gave it anyway.I will forever be grateful for her
help， and now for her friendship.

When going shopping with a friend， Gail Heyman found herself
quite awkward （令人尴尬的） when her friend asked her which dress
she liked best.Her friend had a clear favorite — a dress that Heyman
happened to dislike.“In that case， I lied and said that I like the same
one，” said Heyman.
As Heyman’s experience shows， it might not matter all that much
if you tell a white lie to make a friend feel good at times.But when it
comes to the most meaningful relationships in your life， protecting a
friend’s feelings at all costs can sometimes make them fail.For
example， if a person is practicing for a job interview and it’s a few days before his interview， and he gives an answer that you think is not good at all and you don’t tell him because you don’t want to hurt his feelings，
that’s really not very nice to him， right？ Because he has an opportunity to fix that thing.
If you know that lies can have results， why do you still lie often？ A
study carried out by Tali Sharot， a professor at University College
London， found that it’s because people just get used to it.One little lie
can turn into bigger and bigger lies over time.“If you habituate
emotionally， it will change your behavior，” says Sharot.
Sharot notes that if you’re worried about lying a bit too much， try
and notice when you want to bend the truth （歪曲事实）.She thinks
it’s best to do so when you’re not actually responding to those triggers
（诱因）.Moving your attention away from shame and focusing more on
your values can be a healthy way to start looking at this more actively.

When you set a foot outside of your door to drop trash， go to a
social event or go for a walk， thoughts like “I hope I don’t see anyone
I know” or “please don’t talk to me” may run through your
mind.I’ve also said such things to myself.Sometimes the last thing you
want to do is to talk with someone， especially someone new.
Why do we go out of our ways to avoid people？ Do we think
meeting new people is a waste of time？ Or are we just lazy， thinking
that meeting someone new really is a trouble？
Communication is the key to life.We have been told that many
times.Take the past generations， like our parents， for example.They
seem to take full advantage of that whole “communication” idea
because they grew up talking face to face while Generation-Y grew up
staring at screens.We spend hours of our days sitting on Facebook.We
send messages to our friends and think about all of the things we want to
say to certain people that we don’t have the courage to do in reality.
Nowadays， we are so caught up in our little circle of friends — our
comfort zone.We love it that they laugh at our jokes， understand our
feelings and can read our minds.Most importantly， they know when we
want to be alone.They just get us.
Holding a conversation with someone new means agreeing with
things that you don’t really believe and being someone you think they
want you to be — it is， as I said before， a trouble.It takes up so much
energy， and at some point or another， it is too tiring.
But meeting new people is important.Life is too short， so meet all
the people you can meet， make the effort to go out and
laugh.Remember， every “hello” leads to a smile — and a smile is
worth a lot.

Ⅱ.阅读七选五
As we walk the “path of life”， we may sometimes wish to be
alone with our own thoughts， for quiet periods of reflection can lead to
personal improvement.However， social life is also important to us.More
often than not， close friendships will help smooth out the sometimes
rocky road that we are all meant to travel. 13
The first is the peace that comes from sharing our joy， sadness，
success and failure with friends.Here， friendship has a double
advantage. 14 And a trouble shared becomes a trouble halved！ With
true friends， we feel free to share our joy and sadness in full
measure.Indeed， the human heart depends on such opportunities for
comfort and protection.
15 We often find it easier to recognize other people’s
weaknesses than our own.As a result， if we are guided only by our own
feelings， our judgments might be one-sided.On the other hand， our
friends are better able to offer advice on important decisions.Also， when
we want to talk our problems over with a friend， we have to put our
thoughts into words first.This alone helps make our thoughts clearer and
brings us a more thorough understanding of our problems.
The last is the help that a friend may offer in many different
ways.There are so many things in life that can only be achieved with the
help of friends.Friends may have many different ideas and skills. 16
By the way， it should be pointed out that enjoying the company of a
crowd is not the same as being with friends. 17 The relationships
should be carefully developed.In this way， we can better walk the “path
of life” with the comfort， advice and help from our trusted friends.
A. Friends should be carefully chosen.
B. Then comes the recognition from our friends.
C. Happiness shared takes on a greater meaning.
D. Therefore， we can be much happier and wiser.
E. They can help us achieve what we want in our lives.
F. The next is the better judgement and understanding.
G. Generally speaking， close friendships have three “fruits”.

相处需要用心去培养良好关系。
13. G 根据第二段首句以及倒数第二段首句可知，G项（总的来说，
亲密的友谊有三种“果实”）引起下文，符合语境。
14. C 根据空前一句和空后一句可知，此处强调友谊有双重优势，
即朋友间通过分享麻烦和困难，麻烦和困难就会减半。因此设空处应
该介绍朋友之间分享幸福。C项承上启下，符合语境，指出朋友间分
享幸福则具有更大的意义。
15. F 根据上下文可知，空处应该按照顺序介绍友谊结出的第二种果
实。故F项符合语境，F项中的The next与上文的The first和下文的The
last相呼应。
16. E 根据空前一句可知，朋友们能够有很多不同的想法和技能，
下文对朋友的这些技能和想法带来的结果进行描述。E项（它们能够
帮助我们实现我们想要的生活）符合语境，E项中的They指代上文的
different ideas and skills。
17. A 根据空前一句可知，此处强调有一群人的陪伴和与朋友在一
起是不一样的，即强调了人群和朋友的区别，A项符合语境，指出选
择朋友要慎重，不能把一群人的陪伴看作是朋友的陪伴。
谢谢观看！
