Ⅰ.阅读理解
A
My family just got back from a wonderful vacation. It was 10 days of good food, great sun and beautiful beaches. One day nearly ruined our trip, though. I had caught a bad cold, and I was thinking about staying at home. But my wife had her heart set on the beach, and because we have three small children, I came along to help out.
We arrived, and my wife was in heaven. I wasn't as enthusiastic. The sand wasn't nearly as soft as I like. And the surf was much rougher, which certainly didn't please my kids.
As I kept comparing this beach to other ones, my mood deteriorated. I was about to get into another big argument with my wife when I remembered three little words：“disagree and commit”. It's a principle that encourages healthy discussion and disagreement during the decision-making process, but that requires full support for a decision once made.
In the case of our vacation, I had agreed to let my wife pick the beach for the day. Because of my cold, I would have found something wrong with just about any beach. And complaining would have just made everyone else unhappy, too. So, I did the opposite. I looked for all the great things about the beach and voiced them out loud. And guess what I survived those hours on the beach.
In all our relationships, we're looking for support. Of course, good friends should be able to have healthy disagreements. But when it comes to making decisions, there are times when all the discussion in the world won't change another person's mind. When that happens, ask yourself, “Can I disagree and commit？” If you can, you'll show your partner you're willing to go all in and they'll do the same for you.
I know it's saved my most precious relationships countless times over the years. And it's a major reason why after 11 years of marriage, three kids, and even the stress of a family vacation, the relationship between my wife and me is stronger than ever.
语篇解读：本文是一篇夹叙夹议文。作者通过讲述在一次海滩旅行时，因为自己情绪不好差点儿毁了家庭度假的事，谈论了在人际关系中“不同意也遵从”的重要性。
1．What almost ruined the author's family vacation
A．The trip to the beach.
B．The kids' bad cold.
C．The author's three kids.
D．The heart attack of his wife.
√
解析：推理判断题。根据第二段中的“The sand wasn't nearly as soft as I like. And the surf was much rougher, which certainly didn't please my kids.”以及第三段中的“As I kept comparing this beach to other ones, my mood deteriorated.”可推断，到海滩的旅行差点儿毁了作者的家庭度假。
2．What does the underlined word “deteriorated” in paragraph 3 refer to
A．Got silent. B．Turned thrilled.
C．Became terrible. D．Remained calm.
解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词下文“I was about to get into another big argument with my wife ...”可知，作者情绪极差，从而推断出画线词deteriorated意为“变得极差”，与C项意思最为接近。
√
3．How did the author translate “disagree and commit” into his action
A．By comparing the beach to others.
B．By complaining about the dry sand.
C．By pointing out good things about the beach.
D．By having a violent argument with his dear wife.
√
解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中的“I looked for all the great things about the beach and voiced them out loud.”可知，作者通过指出海滩的美好一面把那三个词变成了行动。
4．What does the author suggest doing in relationships
A．Trying to change others' minds.
B．Finding disagreements with others.
C．Expressing the complaint and anger.
D．Supporting others though disagreeing.
解析：推理判断题。根据倒数第二段内容可知，作者建议在人际关系中，尽管不同意，也要支持他人。
√

Everyone, at one time or another, has experienced some challenges in friendships and relationships with family members. We might find ourselves frustrated (懊恼的) or angry with other people, or even find that we argue with them. The reality is that nobody is perfect and we need to realise that we should find ways to live happier and less stressful lives. Here are some tips on how to make relationships happier and healthier.
Respect other people and accept them
This is the most important point. If we want to show someone we love them, we need to first respect who they are and show them we accept them for who they are: Everyone is unique with different experiences and lives. By always remembering this, we will be able to develop and maintain strong relationships.
Be interested in others' interests
We might have friends who are crazy about sports, while we prefer reading. Or perhaps a parent's hobby seems boring to us but it is something they love. If we want to keep our relationships strong and positive, we should at least take time to listen to them and talk about what matters to them. By doing this, we show them that we care about them and their interests.
Apologise when you make a mistake
This is the hardest thing for most of us to do, yet a simple “I'm sorry” can undo a lot of tension. By being humble when you make a mistake, you can fix any problem you may have caused and also show that you are a mature person.
Stay connected through communication
Good communication is a fundamental part of a healthy relationship. When you experience a positive emotional connection with your partner, you feel safe and happy. When people stop communicating well, they stop relating well, and times of change or stress can really bring out the disconnect. It may sound simplistic, but as long as you are communicating, you can usually work through whatever problems you're facing.
So, try and follow the advice and you will find that you have happier and stronger relationships with your friends and loved ones.

No matter how friendly your tone is or how honey sweet you are in a conversation, when you use one of these two words (or both) in your sentences, the message to your conversation companion is “You are wrong”. 9 They are “no” and “but”．
These words don't say, “Let's discuss this” or “I'd love to hear what you think about this” to people. They say, “You are wrong and I am right.” If your conversation companion is also eager to win at any cost, you will have a potential battle on your hands. The result 10
Are you interested in a little test to see how competitive your co-workers are Try this. For one week, keep a scorecard of how many times each person uses “no” or “but”. 11 And, if you explore a little deeper, you'll see patterns emerge. For instance, some people use these words to gain power. You'll see how much people hate it, consciously or not, and how it stifles (抑制) rather than opens up discussions.
12 Practically without even thinking, I keep count of their use of these two little words. It's such an important indicator! If the numbers pile up in an initial meeting with a client, I'll interrupt him or her and say, “We've been talking for almost an hour now, and do you realize that you have responded 17 times with either ‘no’ or ‘but’？” This is the moment when a serious talk about changing behavior begins.
If this is your interpersonal challenge, you can do this little test for yourself just as easily as you can to judge your co-workers. Stop trying to defend your position and start monitoring how many times you begin remarks with “no” or “but”. 13 For example, “That's true, but ...”. Another expression is “Yes, but ...”．
A．I use this technique with my clients.
B．Why do people like to say these two words

A
My family just got back from a wonderful vacation. It was 10 days of good food, great sun and beautiful beaches. One day nearly ruined our trip, though. I had caught a bad cold, and I was thinking about staying at home. But my wife had her heart set on the beach, and because we have three small children, I came along to help out.
We arrived, and my wife was in heaven. I wasn't as enthusiastic. The sand wasn't nearly as soft as I like. And the surf was much rougher, which certainly didn't please my kids.
As I kept comparing this beach to other ones, my mood deteriorated. I was about to get into another big argument with my wife when I remembered three little words：“disagree and commit”. It's a principle that encourages healthy discussion and disagreement during the decision making process, but that requires full support for a decision once made.
In the case of our vacation, I had agreed to let my wife pick the beach for the day. Because of my cold, I would have found something wrong with just about any beach. And complaining would have just made everyone else unhappy, too. So, I did the opposite. I looked for all the great things about the beach and voiced them out loud. And guess what I survived those hours on the beach.
In all our relationships, we're looking for support. Of course, good friends should be able to have healthy disagreements. But when it comes to making decisions, there are times when all the discussion in the world won't change another person's mind. When that happens, ask yourself, “Can I disagree and commit？” If you can, you'll show your partner you're willing to go all in and they'll do the same for you.
I know it's saved my most precious relationships countless times over the years. And it's a major reason why after 11 years of marriage, three kids, and even the stress of a family vacation, the relationship between my wife and me is stronger than ever.

A．Got silent. B．Turned thrilled.
C．Became terrible. D．Remained calm.
3．How did the author translate “disagree and commit” into his action
A．By comparing the beach to others.
B．By complaining about the dry sand.
C．By pointing out good things about the beach.
D．By having a violent argument with his dear wife.
4．What does the author suggest doing in relationships

Everyone, at one time or another, has experienced some challenges in friendships and relationships with family members. We might find ourselves frustrated (懊恼的) or angry with other people, or even find that we argue with them. The reality is that nobody is perfect and we need to realise that we should find ways to live happier and less stressful lives. Here are some tips on how to make relationships happier and healthier.
Respect other people and accept them
This is the most important point. If we want to show someone we love them, we need to first respect who they are and show them we accept them for who they are: Everyone is unique with different experiences and lives. By always remembering this, we will be able to develop and maintain strong relationships.
Be interested in others' interests
We might have friends who are crazy about sports, while we prefer reading. Or perhaps a parent's hobby seems boring to us but it is something they love. If we want to keep our relationships strong and positive, we should at least take time to listen to them and talk about what matters to them. By doing this, we show them that we care about them and their interests.
Apologise when you make a mistake
This is the hardest thing for most of us to do, yet a simple “I'm sorry” can undo a lot of tension. By being humble when you make a mistake, you can fix any problem you may have caused and also show that you are a mature person.
Stay connected through communication
Good communication is a fundamental part of a healthy relationship. When you experience a positive emotional connection with your partner, you feel safe and happy. When people stop communicating well, they stop relating well, and times of change or stress can really bring out the disconnect. It may sound simplistic, but as long as you are communicating, you can usually work through whatever problems you're facing.
