“Your playful days are over,” my brother said to me when he knew I was going to be a Senior One student.Then he continued telling me that senior school life was boring because I had to do a large amount of homework every day.The subjects were much more difficult than those of junior school.
I stepped into the school gate with a nervous heart.However, I was surprised to find what I experienced there was completely different from what my brother had told me.
The teachers gave excellent lessons in their own special way.They talked with me in a natural and fair way, as if I was an adult.All of them are so knowledgeable and they not only explained the contents of textbooks but also provided extra information from other sources.Every word they said in classes made me so excited and interested that I had a strong desire to take in as much as I could.
In fact, my playful days were not over at all in senior school.There were many kinds of activities I could take part in.For example, sports meetings, the art festival, English corner, outing and so on.Best of all, generally, students organized the activities rather than teachers.Through this process, I improved my leadership abilities and communication skills.I've become mature.I am not a kid any more.
Now if anyone asks me: “Through your process of growing up, which part is most impressive up till now?” Well, the answer will absolutely be my “senior high school life”.

Teenagers who spend more time on after-school activities and less than two hours of screen time after school are more mentally healthy, according to a study published in the journal Preventive Medicine.The new study was carried out by researchers from the University of British Columbia.
The study used information collected from more than 28,000 seventh-grade Canadian students between 2014 and 2018.The students first answered questions about their usage of screen time after school, including how much time they spent swiping their mobile phone,watching TV,or something else.Then, students reported how many days they had taken part in after-school activities such as sports or arts programs.After that, researchers asked students to describe their state of mind.For example, when given a statement such as “I start most days thinking that I will have a good day”, they could choose to what level they agreed with it on a scale.
Some of the results were expected, researchers said in the study.Students with no after-school activities usually had high levels of screen time, for example.And they expected girls would score higher on negative indicators of mental health, as earlier research had found that they tended to have higher levels of anxiety compared to boys.
What was noteworthy, researchers said,was that even among students who took part in after-school activities, 46% still went beyond the recommended screen time of two hours.At the same time,67% of students who didn't take part in after-school activities also had more than two hours of screen time.Together, this suggests high screen time among teenagers generally.
“The findings suggest that after-school activities are valuable for the happy growing of teenagers,” the study said.“While past studies have proved the importance of after-school activities for social and academic development, the present study shows their importance for good mental health results.”

How to Deal with a Friend Who Has Changed
Change is a normal part of life.__1__If you find that a friend is acting differently toward you than they did in the past, or if your feelings toward them have changed, it may be time to examine the relationship and determine whether you need to make changes in that aspect of your life.
Discuss your problems with a mutual friend.You might find that you're not the only one having issues with a particular person.Sharing your problems can make both of you feel better.Together, you might be able to determine the best course of action.You don't want to be accused of gossiping or talking behind your friend's back.__2__
Ask your friend if anything is wrong.The direct approach is often the best one.For example, one of your close friends has suddenly become distant and ignored you.__3__If you feel that your relationship with someone has changed, chances are they have noticed a difference too, and will be willing to talk to you.
Consider possible medical issues.If a friend's attitude toward you has changed thoroughly, it might be a sign of a deeper problem like depression.If you really think that your friend might have a medical disorder, encourage them to seek professional advice.__4__If your friend is hesitant, assure them that a medical professional could help with what they are experiencing.
__5__ This can set a positive tone for the conversation and soften your criticism of them.If the issue is that you no longer see your friend, you might say, “I really liked when we used to spend time together, but lately it seems like you've been avoiding me.”
A.So seek the advice of just one mutual friend.
B.You may apologize for your past mistakes in person.
C.In some instances, suggesting medical help is necessary.
D.Begin by saying something that you like about your friend.
E.Reach out to a friend if you are having problems with them.
F.In this case, you may ask them whether you are in the wrong.
G.However, sometimes the ways people change can affect their personal relationships.

Sammie Vance,14,knows there's nothing worse than feeling left out.For years,she's been helping kids who feel lonely make friends.What she was doing was running the Buddy Bench program.The idea was that anyone at school who was feeling lonely could sit on the “buddy bench”.That let other kids know someone needed a friend.“It's really helpful to have other people be able to notice you,” Sammie says.
The idea quickly caught on.The bench brought kids together.Since then,Sammie has helped communities all over the country set up buddy benches.“It means a lot to me,” she says,“that this is making a difference in people's lives.”
Sammie got the idea for the Buddy Bench program at summer camp in 2017.She thought it would be cool to have a buddy bench in her school,so when she got home,she presented the idea to her principal,her teachers,and her parents.
Getting approval for the project was just the first step.“There have been a lot of small challenges,like money,” Sammie says.
To reduce costs and be eco-friendly,Sammie decided to make the bench out of recycled material.So she called on her community to gather bottle caps.
Word of the project got out,and soon Sammie was getting caps from people in all 50 states.She even got them from people in Germany,the Netherlands,and other countries.In the end,she collected more than 1,200 pounds of bottle caps.A company called GreenTree Plastics was able to upcycle these into three benches.
In addition to all the kids her project has helped,Sammie is grateful for how it has changed her.“It just helped me grow in so many different aspects of my life,” she says.
Before long,Sammie was helping other schools acquire benches.She has donated more than 200 benches to schools and parks all around the country,and in Mexico and Australia.Her work continues to spread kindness far and wide.
Even small acts of kindness can be powerful.“It can make someone's day and lead to a chain reaction,” she says.“You never know.Just be kind,in general.”

Josie,who is 17 years old,said,“Why do my parents do the same things they tell me not to do?For example,my mom stops me from shouting through the walls and asks me to go and speak to her face-to-face,but she always shouts through the walls to me.What can I do?”
That is a very good point.Parents can be completely inconsistent,and usually they don't realize it.You see this a lot in many things like smartphones.Parents always say to their kids,“Oh,you can't use that.That device is bad for you,so stop using it at the table.It's harmful.” But then they are on theirs continually.So what do you expect teenagers to do
The whole “Do as I say,not as I do” thing is an annoyance,especially for a teenager who is dying for independence and respect but isn't getting them.
What can teenagers do with it?I would say you should point it out by calmly saying something like “You tell me not to scream through the walls,but you do it to me,so you can understand where I'm coming from.That's not ideal.” They might object to it,but I think most parents who care about being parents would logically say,“That's a reasonable point.”
There are a lot of conflicts going on between teenagers and their parents,but a lot of studies show that the conflicts are resolved a lot more when they turn into a dialogue.
If you can talk at a time when you're both feeling a bit calmer,like just in the kitchen or doing something unimportant,then go in and say,“Can I just mention it?You tell me not to do this,but you do it too.” If you can approach it in a more calm and stress-free manner,most parents will respond positively.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要说明了青少年面对父母教育自己时言行不一的问题,应该冷静地和父母沟通。
8.How did Josie feel according to her words in paragraph 1
A.Hopeful. B.Bored.
C.Proud. D.Confused.
解析:D 推理判断题。根据第一段中的“Why do my parents do the same things they tell me not to do?...What can I do?”可推断,Josie感到很困惑。
9.What does the underlined word “theirs” in paragraph 2 refer to
A.The parents' smartphones.
B.The tables in the house.
C.The devices in the house.
D.The teenagers' points.
解析:A 代词指代题。根据画线词上文“You see this a lot in many things like smartphones.Parents always say to their kids,‘Oh,you can't use that.That device is bad for you,so stop using it at the table.It's harmful.’”以及“But then they are on...”中But表示转折可知,父母总是对孩子说手机有害,不要使用,而他们自己却一直在用自己的手机。由此可知,theirs指的是父母的手机。
10.What should teenagers do with their parents' inconsistency
A.Object to it personally.
B.Complain of it continually.
C.Talk with their parents calmly.
D.Do some studies differently.
解析:C 细节理解题。根据第四段中“I would ...coming from.That's not ideal.’”可知,面对父母教育自己时言行不一的问题,青少年应该冷静地和父母沟通。
11.What is the author's purpose in writing the last paragraph
A.To list a fact.
B.To offer a suggestion.
C.To show a result.
D.To ask a new question.
解析:B 写作意图题。根据最后一段“If you can talk at a time when you're both feeling a bit calmer,like just in the kitchen or doing something unimportant,then go in and say...”可推知,作者在最后一段就青少年面对父母教育自己时言行不一的问题提出了建议。

It's always exciting to receive a letter in the mail.Even today,when the world is digitally connected,receiving an actual letter in your mailbox from a distant land is a great way for children to make new friends.
The Peaceful Pen Pals Project is a beautiful project that blends together global connection and self-expression.The project is part of the nonprofit Kids for Peace,founded by Jill McManigal and Danielle Gram in California in 2006.It is open to all children,ages two through seventeen.To date,there are 1,500 children from 17 countries participating in the program according to the organization.Currently,all letters are written in English.When children sign up,they can select if they would rather be matched with a USA Peaceful Pen Pal or an international one.
Each child is then matched to a pen pal of similar age.This establishes a point of connection quickly for the children and facilitates a stronger bond.If the letter writers are in the same grade,they can chat about school,their teachers,and what they are studying.They can also compare what different states or countries learn about and how the atmosphere of the classroom is,whether socially or academically.Children may also be more likely to write about problems they are having if they feel like they are speaking to a peer in a similar situation.Although pen pals may live in different countries,they may find common ground.The writer lists their favorite activities to do outside,plus what they like best and least about school.This gives the writer an opportunity to express and receive advice or feedback from the pen pal.
“Hearing first-hand stories from an international pen pal can encourage teens to take someone else's viewpoint and to think outside of themselves,” writes Rebecca Fraser-Thill on Very Well Family.“Having a foreign pen pal can also encourage interest in geography,history and culture.”

Every week, even every day, we have lots of different tasks to finish. 16 However, the advantages of volunteering can be huge. Volunteering can offer help to people in need. But the advantages can be even greater for the volunteers. Why
17 Studies have found that when you stop thinking about your own problems and focus on someone other than yourself, your stress levels start to go down, your immune system (免疫系统) is strengthened and your overall sense of life satisfaction increases. This is because helping someone else gives you a sense of purpose and makes you pay attention to the positive things in life.
Volunteering helps you develop new relationships. 18 And it gives you the good chance to communicate with them. These can help you form close relationships with them. These relationships can have a lasting influence on your life.Volunteering teaches you valuable job skills. During volunteering, you can have lots of chances to learn useful and important skills. For example, volunteer organizations always provide on?the?job training courses for volunteers before they start the work. Those courses can help you learn some skills for certain jobs. 19
Volunteering makes your resume (简历) attractive. Are you stuck for things to write on your resume to get the job you want? 20 Studies have found those who volunteered had a better chance of finding a job than those who didn't. Whether you do one thing on a regular basis, or help with lots of different causes for shorter amounts of time, each voluntary experience you have looks great to your future bosses.
A.Volunteering makes you independent.
B.And they're often offered to you for free.
C.Volunteering can be good for your health.
D.It lets you meet people from all walks of life.
E.If so, there are some good suggestions for you.
F.Deal with it by showing the volunteer work you have done.
G.With busy lives, it can be hard to find time to volunteer.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要分析了参加志愿者活动对志愿者的益处。

17.解析:C 根据下文“Studies have found that when you stop thinking about your own problems and focus on someone other than yourself, your stress levels start to go down, your immune system (免疫系统) is strengthened and your overall sense of life satisfaction increases.”可知,本段旨在告诉读者志愿者活动有益于志愿者的健康。
18.解析:D 根据上文“Volunteering helps you develop new relationships.”下文“And it gives you the good chance to communicate with them.”可知D项中的It 指代上一句中的Volunteering; 下一句中的them指代D项中的people from all walks of life。
19.解析:B 根据上文“For example, volunteer organizations always provide on-the-job training courses for volunteers before they start the work. Those courses can help you learn some skills for certain jobs.”可知B项与上一句分别列举了志愿者组织给志愿者提供在职培训课程的优点。
20.解析:F 根据上文“ Are you stuck for things to write on your resume to get the job you want?”和下文“Studies have found those who volunteered had a better chance of finding a job than those who didn't.”可知可以在你的简历中体现你做过的志愿者工作,因为研究发现,有过做志愿者经历的人比没有做过志愿者工作的人更容易找到工作。

[语篇解读] 本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者在中国学习的经历和感受。
36.解析:studying 考查非谓语动词。分析句子结构,空处在that引导的宾语从句中作主语,应用动名词形式。故填studying。
37.解析:truly 考查副词。分析句子结构,空处修饰动词understand,应用副词形式作状语。故填truly。
38.解析:to make 考查非谓语动词。not only... but( also)...表示“不但……而且……”,连接并列成分,所以空处应用不定式形式与to interact并列,作后置定语,修饰名词chance。故填to make。
39.解析:that 考查强调句结构。分析句子结构,本句使用强调句句型“It was+被强调部分+that+其他部分”,其中through these friendships为被强调部分,所以空处应用that。故填that。
40.解析:an 考查冠词。结合语意,此处泛指一个普通的中国学生,空处应用不定冠词,average发音是元音音素开头的单词,前边应用an。故填an。

42.解析:better 考查形容词比较级。结合语意以及句中than可知,空处应用形容词的比较级形式,表示对中国的了解更好了。故填 better。
43.解析:favorites 考查名词复数。空处作句子主语,应用名词favorite,表示“特别喜爱的东西”,应用名词的复数形式表示泛指。故填favorites。
44.解析:but 考查连词。句子前后表示转折关系,应用连词but,表示“但是”。故填but。
45.解析:their 考查代词。结合语意,此处表示在中国的外国人利用他们的时间,空处应用形容词性物主代词their,表示“他们的”。故填their。

Dear Fiona,
I'm sorry to hear that your relationship with your mother has been difficult recently.But I can totally understand your feelings.Here are my suggestions.
Firstly,it would be wise of you not to quarrel with your mother,as it won't improve things,but only make things worse.You'd better have a face-to-face talk with your mother,which will enable both of you to understand each other better.In addition,I recommend that you go home with two or three reliable friends from the dancing club who live close to you.If necessary,give your mother a phone call before you are about to leave school to let her know you are safe.
I hope the above will be of help to you.
Yours,
Li Hua
第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Yesterday I had a taste of being stuck in a desperate situation where my only hope of help would have to come from a total stranger.
I was in a busy shopping mall buying a large piece of luggage.After the purchase in one of the large and expensive shops, I picked up my phone from my pocket to call my driver waiting in the parking lot and my phone was dead.
I then requested the shop assistant selling me the luggage, which was not cheap at all, if she could ring the number of my driver for me.She replied, still all smiles, “I'm sorry, sir, but it is the shop policy that we cannot use mobile phones while working in the shop.”
As I was wondering what kind of policy that was, I saw a nice-looking teenage boy coming toward me.Remember my wife's interesting theory that beautiful people are more likely to give you a hand when you're in trouble, I thought I might have a chance.But before I could say a word, he walked past me.It turned out he simply didn't see me.
I waited in the mall but it seemed nobody bothered to look at me.Disappointed and tired, I got out of the shop onto the busy street in front.I stood there with people rushing by, looking at their faces to see if they will show kindness to me.I began wondering how many times I had reacted to strangers like the shop girl and the teenager.

[语篇解读] 本文讲述了作者在购物中心购买了一件大行李后,发现自己的手机没电了,无法联系在停车场等待的司机。他请求商店店员帮忙打电话,但被告知商店规定不允许员工在工作时使用手机。这时他想到妻子提过的“你遇到麻烦时,漂亮的人更有可能帮你一把”的有趣理论,打算向一个看似有希望的英俊少年求助,但少年并没有注意到他。作者试图在繁华的街道上向人求助,但没有人注意到他的困境。
[写作指导]
1.段落续写
(1)由第一段首句内容“就在那时,我看到一位年轻的母亲和她的两个孩子”和第二段首句中的“正当我要放弃的时候”可知,第一段可描写作者观察这位母亲和她的孩子,觉得他们很友好,于是上前求助,但不幸被拒绝。
(2)由第二段首句内容“最后,正当我要放弃的时候,一个穿着廉价T恤的男人似乎注意到了我”可知,第二段可描写作者向这个男人求助,男人提供帮助,以及作者对这次经历的感悟。
2.续写线索
看到母子三人——观察他们——求助被拒绝——被男人注意到——求助成功——作者感悟
[参考范文]
That was when I saw a young mother with her two kids. She was talking on the phone, and her voice told me she was a gentle and patient lady.The two kids were neatly dressed and waited quietly beside her.This must be a nice family, I thought to myself.Therefore, I approached to make a request.But as soon as I said, “Excuse me madam,” she grabbed both her kids and went away.Did I look like someone trying to hurt people I felt my heart sinking horribly.
Finally, I was about to give up when a man wearing a cheap T-shirt seemed to notice me. I didn't know why but I just stopped him and made my request.I was expecting him to rush past but he immediately called the number of my driver and waited till my car came to be sure I was picked up, turned around before I could thank him adequately and was gone.Surprised by his kindness, I promised I would do likewise to strangers who sought my help.SectionⅤ Writing——建议信

[板块二 重点句式——句句通]
1.句型公式:so that引导目的状语从句,意为“以便、为了”
(教材原句)I'll find a way to improve on my own so that I can make the team next year.
我会找到一个自我提升的方法,以便明年能加入球队。
[练透]——完成句子/一句多译
①马克拿起一块石头,扔向狼,结果狼转身离开了。(读后续写之动作描写)
Mac picked up a stone and threw it to the wolf, so that it turned back and left.
凯西辞去了工作,以便她能够待在家里照顾家人。
②Cathy quit her job so that/in order that she could stay at home and look after her family. (从句)
③Cathy quit her job so as to/in order to stay at home and look after her family.(不定式)
[提醒]:in order that也可以引导目的状语从句,so that一般不用于句首,而in order that可用于句首。
so that引导目的状语从句,从句中含有情态动词can。
(1)so that引导目的状语从句,意为“以便、为了”,可用in order that 替换,从句中常有may、can、could等情态动词。
(2)表示目的还可以用“so as to/in order to+动词原形”表示。
(3)so that也可引导结果状语从句,意为“因此,所以”,通常不与情态动词连用,从句前可用逗号与主句隔开。
2.句型公式:It is+形容词/名词+to do sth
(教材原句)I'm a bit worried about keeping up with the other students in my advanced course,and it'll be quite difficult to get used to all the homework.
我有点儿担心在高级课程上无法跟上其他同学,而且要完成所有的作业也不容易。

④高中生活不同于初中生活,因此你有必要做出改变。
Senior school life is different from that of junior high school,so it is necessary for you to have a change.
当句子的主语是不定式、动词-ing形式或从句时,为了保持句子平衡,常常使用it作形式主语,而将真正的主语放在句子的后面。
(1)句型“It+is/was+形容词/名词+to do sth”中,不定式作真正的主语;
(2)句型“It+is/was+形容词/名词+doing sth”中,动名词作真正的主语。

层级二 素养能力提升
Ⅰ.阅读理解
When my dad visited me in London recently, I took him for a classic English afternoon tea at the Ritz Hotel.The thought of showing him a piece of authentic British life excited me for weeks, so when we finally sat down in the Ritz's elegant tearoom, with the sound of a pianist in the background, I was thrilled.
I looked at the silver tea stand topped with tasty sandwiches, freshly baked scones, and mouthwatering teacakes.I was ready to dig in.Then I looked at dad and a trace of nervousness flashed across his face.He carefully copied what I ate and how to use the knife and fork.
When we got to the scones, dad took a big bite and commented how delicious it was.He asked me to explain how the British eat scones, so I told him with details about the custom of breaking scones into small pieces, spreading cream and strawberry jam on top, before eating each piece in one mouthful.
“Oh, why did you not tell me earlier?” Dad's face turned red in embarrassment, suddenly realizing his mistake.For the rest of the scones session, he busied himself with neatly spreading the cream and jam like an obedient child.
Suddenly, I felt a complex mixture of happiness, sadness and loneliness.Growing up, dad was my hero, my mountain.I still remember flying into his arms after school at the kindergarten gate.Through the sound of his voice, I learned to feel and understand the world.
After moving to London alone, I have learned to achieve academic grades, found a job, and started a new life all by myself.But I did not fully realize how much I had grown up, until I saw how dependent dad was on me in London.Although he is still a mountain in my heart, I realized I have in the meantime built a strong mountain of my own.And by being away from dad's protective wings I have come to understand more of myself and to find my own place in the world.

层级二 素养能力提升
Ⅰ.阅读理解
There comes a time for every family when the tables turn and the parent has to answer to the child.Mine came recently when my wife and I stayed with our son in Los Angeles — our first visit in several years and the longest since he moved west in 2014.A whole week under his roof!
“Dad, don't leave the water running when you brush your teeth,” Nathaniel lectured on our first night.All right, I figured, this is California, where drought is a concern.But I also got blamed for pulling extra paper towels to wipe the kitchen counter and was instructed to use the dishcloth, which didn't seem sanitary.More rules followed like “Why not walk Soda, the dog, in the morning?” “One pump of insect killer is enough for the garden.”
At first I wondered how I had raised such a tyrant.Then I remembered how often I threw the golden rules of parenting at Nathaniel when he was young.“Someday, you'll have a home of your own and can live however you want,” I'd say.“Until then, you'll have to do as we ask.” An annoying lesson, but it did get the occasional juice glass in the dish-washer or the sweatshirt off the floor.Now it was payback time.
So I smilingly followed Nathaniel's household orders, but with a touch of rebellion—adding more sugar to his coffee, or moving one of his favorite photographs a few inches.
Our role change showed another side to my boy, giving me hope for his future parenting ability.We were walking along EI Matador Beach our last afternoon and hit an extended patch of rocks — clearly the end of the line, I thought.Nathaniel wouldn't hear of it and persuaded me gently and patiently to cross one large stone to the next, telling me where to place my feet and hands.I was terrified, but after a couple hundred yards we made it to a fresh sandy stretch.“You did it! I'm really proud,” he said, as if I had just learned to ride a bike.It was then that I knew for sure that the son also rises to fatherhood.
[语篇解读] 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述的是作者和妻子去儿子家小住期间感受到儿子对他们的“管教”,展现了父母与子女角色互换的情景,作者通过这些趣事表达出他对儿子即将步入父亲角色的期待与欣慰。
1.What happened to the author when he first came to his son's home
A.He had to answer the son's questions.
B.He had trouble fitting into local society.
C.He knocked over the table.
D.He met with different family rules.
解析:D 细节理解题。由文章第二段可知,本段描述了作者第一次到儿子家时的情景,其中提到作者被儿子教导要遵守不同的家庭规则,如节水、用洗碗布擦厨房台面、遛狗、使用杀虫剂等,作者第一次在儿子家住遇到了不同的家庭规则。
2.What does the underlined word “tyrant” in paragraph 3 refer to
A.The son. B.The father.
C.The dog. D.The wife.
解析:A 词义猜测题。根据画线词后面的句子“然后我想起在Nathaniel小的时候,我经常把为人父母的黄金法则教给他。”可知,作者提到自己曾经给儿子定下规矩,结合第二段中描述的现在儿子对作者的各种要求可知,画线词所在句“起初我很奇怪我是怎么养大了这样一个tyrant的。”表明作者一开始不理解儿子为什么有这么多规矩,觉得自己养了个“暴君”,这里的暴君“tyrant”指的是儿子。
3.What can we infer about Nathaniel from the last two paragraphs
A.He is hard to get on with.
B.He succeeds in cycling.
C.He has risen to fatherhood.
D.He doubts his parenting ability.
解析:C 推理判断题。根据最后一段可知,此处提到了作者和儿子在海滩上的经历,其中儿子鼓励作者跨越岩石,给予他指导和鼓励,最终成功到达沙滩。作者因此确信儿子已经成长为一位有责任感的父亲。因此,可以推断出Nathaniel已经具备了成为父亲的品质和能力,已经承担起了父亲的角色。
4.Which may be the best title
A.Get along with Parents
B.Follow Household Rules
C.Let Parenting Grow
D.Turn Parent-child Role
解析:D 标题归纳题。文章主要讲述的是父母和孩子的角色互换,父母变成了需要遵守孩子制定的规则的人,而孩子则扮演起了父母的角色。这种角色互换让作者看到了儿子另一面的成长,同时也给他带来了对儿子未来育儿能力的希望。因此,最适合的标题应该是D选项“父母与孩子角色的转变”。

[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章就青少年学习生活给出了一些建议,包括阅读、提前思考未来要做的事、参加课外活动、设立现实的目标等。
1.解析:E 由上文“But you shouldn't get too crazy with success.”可知,本空要说跟“不要过于沉迷成功”有关的话题。E选项符合题意。
2.解析:A 上文举例说明如何设定学业目标。由下文可知,此处是举例说明如何设定个人目标。A选项符合题意。
3.解析:B 由下文“Go to your school library and check out books that interest you.”可知,此处是建议青少年要多读书。B选项符合题意。
4.解析:G 由上文可知,此处是建议青少年要参加课外活动。由下文可知,此处是举例说明课外活动的好处,G选项能承上启下,them指上文中after-class activities,符合题意。

[语篇解读] 本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了父母与孩子在成长过程中的关系变化,特别是关于父母对孩子的控制、保护以及孩子随着年龄增长逐渐发展自我身份的过程。
1.解析:that 考查强调句。句子是强调句,结构是“It is/was+被强调的部分+who/that+其他部分”,句中被强调的部分是in your daily life,因此空格处用that。故填that。
2.解析:protection 考查名词。空格处用名词作宾语,protect的名词是protection,意为“保护”,是不可数名词,故填protection。
3.解析:themselves 考查反身代词。主语they和宾语they一致时,用反身代词themselves作宾语,故填themselves。
4.解析:correctly 考查副词。空格处用副词修饰动词make,correct的副词是correctly,意为“正确地”,故填correctly。
5.解析:which 考查定语从句。空格处引导的是非限制性定语从句,从句中缺少主语,先行词your own identity是你的身份,因此空格处用关系代词which,故填which。
6.解析:concerned 考查形容词。句子表示“你的父母都会一直关心你”,be concerned about是固定短语,意为“关心,担心”,形容词作表语。故填concerned。
7.解析:it 考查代词。feel it hard to do是固定短语,意为“感觉做某事很难”,其中it是形式宾语,真正的宾语是不定式,因此空格处是it。故填it。
8.解析:knowing 考查非谓语动词。without是介词,其后跟动名词作宾语,因此空格处用动名词knowing。故填knowing。
9.解析:through 考查介词。句子表示“你的父母能理解你所经历的一切”,go through是固定短语,意为“经历”,因此空格处是through。故填through。
10.解析:were 考查动词时态和主谓一致。由once可知,句子时态是一般过去时,空格处用过去式,主语they是复数,因此空格处用were。故填were。Section Ⅳ Reading for Writing

层级二 素养能力提升
Ⅰ.阅读理解
Social media allow teenagers to create online identities,communicate with others and build social networks.These networks can provide teenagers with valuable support.Teenagers also use social media for entertainment and self-expression.And the platforms can expose teenagers to current events,allow them to communicate across geographic barriers and teach them about different kinds of subjects,including healthy behaviors.However,social media use can also negatively affect teenagers,distracting them,influencing their sleep,and exposing them to bullying,rumor spreading,untrue views of other people's lives and peer pressure.
There are steps you can take to encourage responsible use of social media and limit some of its negative effects.
Set reasonable limits.Talk to your teenager about how to avoid letting social media affect his or her activities,sleep,meals or homework.Encourage a bedtime routine that avoids electronic media use,and keep cellphones and iPads out of teenagers' bedrooms.Set an example by following these rules yourself.
Monitor your teenager's accounts.Let your teenager know that you'll be regularly checking his or her social media accounts.You might aim to do so once a week or more.And make sure you follow through.
Explain what's not OK.Discourage your teenager from gossiping,spreading rumors,bullying or damaging someone's reputation—online or otherwise.Talk to your teenager about what is appropriate and safe to share on social media.
Encourage face-to-face contact with friends.This is particularly important for teenagers who are vulnerable to social anxiety disorder.
Talk about social media.Talk about your own social media habits.Ask your teenager how he or she is using social media and how it makes him or her feel.Remind your teenager that social media is full of unrealistic images.
If you think your teenager is experiencing signs or symptoms of anxiety or depression related to social media use,talk to your child's health care provider immediately.
