In high school I was very shy, and content to hang around with my small group of friends and concentrate on my courses. I was quickly regarded as a “brain”. I did so well that by the end of the senior year I had perfect grades and enough credits to give up an entire quarter of coursework.
But in early June of the senior year, the principal called me into his office. He asked me to give a speech at graduation. I gaped at (目瞪口呆地凝视) him, my heart thumping. This was the reward for my hard work I mumbled something and fled the office, blaming myself for staying away from physics, a subject sure to have ruined my perfect record.
I finally agreed to a compromise. I would share the honor with five other students. And my friend Judy would then give her own full length speech.
Graduation day soon arrived. I'd been practicing my speech for days, and I had it memorized. The first half hour of the ceremony passed in a blur, and then my moment came. My name was announced. I managed to reach the podium (讲台) without falling down. I faced my classmates. My voice trembled a little, but mostly it was clear and strong. But within seconds, I was done and headed back to my seat. I accomplished something I'd never dreamed of—I spoke in front of hundreds of people.
Although I didn't realize it at the time, the successful completion of that speech gave me the confidence to participate in class at college, to give verbal reports, and to eventually break free from my shyness. I never would have chosen to give a speech at graduation ever. But I'm glad I did. I no longer hesitate when I'm faced with the prospect of doing something I dread. I know it may very well turn out to be one of my shining moments.

The day I met Hani Irmawati, she was a shy, 17 year old girl standing alone in the parking lot of the international school in Indonesia, where I teach English. She asked if I could help her improve her English. I could tell it took immense (巨大的) courage for the young Indonesian girl to approach me and ask for help.
“I want to go to a US university，” she said with confidence. I was surprised.
I agreed to work with her on a volunteer basis. For several months, Hani woke each morning at five and caught the city bus to her public high school. During the ride, she studied for her regular classes and the English assignments I had given her. At four o'clock in the afternoon, she arrived at my classroom, exhausted but ready to work.
Hani lived in a two room house with her parents and two brothers. When I met them at their house, I realized they would never be able to afford the expenses of a US university. Hani's enthusiasm was increasing with her language ability, but I was becoming more and more discouraged.
One day I received the announcement of a scholarship opportunity for a major US university. After reading the requirements, I knew Hani couldn't meet the qualifications. I told her that there was only a slim chance of her getting the scholarship and encouraged her to be more “realistic” about her dream. But she remained determined.
“Will you send in my name？” she asked.
I couldn't turn her down. I completed the application, with the painful truth about her academic life, but also with my praise of her courage and perseverance.
In the weeks that followed, I arranged for her to take the Test of English Fluency in Jakarta. The entire test would be an enormous challenge for someone who had never touched a computer before. For two weeks, we studied how a computer works. Then, just before Hani went to Jakarta, she received a letter from the scholarship association. She had been accepted.
I leaped around the room, overjoyed and shocked. Hani stood by, smiling. I realized that it was I who had learned something Hani had known from the beginning: It is not intelligence alone that brings success, but also the drive to succeed, the commitment to work hard and the courage to believe in yourself.

Are you bad at math If you answer yes, consider this question: Are you bad at math because you didn't study hard enough to learn the material or because you lack the ability to be good at it
As it turns out, many children believe that they don't do well on math tests because they're intellectually incapable (无能的) of understanding the material. They have no reason to try harder, thus trapping them in a state of being bad at math.
Educators Miles Kimball and Noah Smith argue that this is a big problem, “Math is the great mental subject of an unconfident America. If we can convince you that anyone can learn math, it should be a short step to convincing you that you can learn just about anything, if you work hard enough.”
Psychologist Carol Dweck took on the task of convincing a group of students that if they worked hard they could become smarter. The truly remarkable part of that study was not that the kids improved and earned higher grades; it was that Dweck noted that a few of the tough boys in the group were brought to tears, learning that the level of intelligence they could reach was limitless—it was entirely up to them.
Of course, not all of us will become genius mathematicians, but the majority of us can become skilled and maybe even good at math. As Mashable points out, while dyscalculia (计算障碍), a math disability, is a real thing, only 6 percent of the population is likely to have it. For the rest of us, it's a confidence problem, or a lack of belief that with hard work, we'll improve. Thankfully, we now know better, and we can pass on that__information to the next generation.
篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。研究人员认为智力是可以依靠后天的努力加以改善的，只要勤奋，每一个人都能把数学学好。
32．Many people don't work hard at math because they think that ________．
A．their intelligence is high
B．math is not worth learning
C．it's useless to put in the effort
D．they have understood the material
答案：C
解析：推理判断题。根据第二段中的“because they're ... to try harder”可推知，他们认为自己智力不行，努力也没有用。故选C。
33．According to Miles Kimball and Noah Smith, ________．
A．math is a big problem to deal with
B．most Americans don't like math at all
C．math is an important subject at school
D．one can learn anything as long as he works hard
答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“that you can learn just about anything, if you work hard enough”可知，他们认为只要足够努力，人们什么都能学(好)。故选D。
34．In Carol Dweck's study, the students ________．
A．passed the tests easily
B．became good at math soon
C．didn't get higher grades in the test
D．know their intelligence depends on themselves
答案：D
解析：细节理解题。根据第四段最后一句中的“learning that the level of intelligence they could reach was limitless—it was entirely up to them”可知，在Carol(卡罗尔)的研究中，学生了解到自己是否聪明取决于他们自己。故选D。
35．What does the underlined part “that information” refer to
A．Math disability doesn't really exist.
B．Everyone is likely to learn math well.
C．Math cannot be ignored at any time.
D．Confidence is important in one's life.
答案：B
解析：指代判断题。根据最后一段中的“For the rest ... to the next generation.”可知，大多数人学不好数学是信心的问题，缺乏努力学习就能进步的信念。但是现在我们对此了解得更多了，我们能把这一信息传递给下一代。由此可推知，that information指的是“每一个人都可能学好数学”。故选B。

Overcome weaknesses
__39__， you should come to terms with your weaknesses. Don't be ashamed of them. Look at them as areas of improvement. We all have strengths and weaknesses that shape our personality. It is these imperfections that make us humans.
__40__
Choosing to work on improving yourself requires you to take your trip out of comfortable areas. It lets you face your fears, try new things, take risks and challenge yourself. There will be times when you will discover a new side of your personality but there will also be times when you will fail.
A．Improve mental health
B．Step out of comfort zone
C．It also helps you set life goals and make them happen
D．When you refuse to improve yourself in your daily life

40．答案：B
解析：设空处是段落标题。根据下文“Choosing to work ... and challenge yourself.(选择提高自己需要你走出舒适区。它让你面对你的恐惧，尝试新的东西，冒险和挑战自己。)”可知，本段主要讲述走出舒适区。B项(走出舒适区)概括本段主旨，可以作为本段小标题。故选B。

Sole (单独的) outings had never __42__ my mind before because I used to have a friend willing to accompany me. But three years ago, I moved to Cleveland. Meeting friends in a new city is __43__．
In October，I decided to take an adventure on a __44__ hiking trip. I went to Cuyahoga Valley National Park (CVNP) to __45__ the autumn leaves. Four miles in, I couldn't remember the last time I'd felt so alive. I was more aware of my __46__ than I had ever been while hiking that day. I focused my ears on each forest sound and every sentence in my mind pointed to a newfound __47__—solo hiking is my happy experience.
I followed that feeling of alertness throughout CVNP during that autumn and eventually added the amazing feeling of frozen winter outings in December. Cold temperatures meant I'd need to be more focused. Heavy snow turned my __48__ into a winter wonderland.
When spring arrived, I decided to __49__ the final solo sport on my list: kayaking. I felt so proud when I first launched my kayak from the shore. My chest, __50__ tightened by nerves (神经), was __51__ happiness when I finally reached the middle of the river that I had long admired back on __52__.
From that first sunny paddle to many winter hikes, __53__ alone seems like a good medicine for me. It also pushes me to go beyond my comfort zone and to meet new people.

篇章导读：本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了人类活动导致许多动物在夜间保持清醒以保持警惕状态。
56．答案：to avoid
解析：考查非谓语动词。句意：狮子、老虎以及其他的动物在夜间保持清醒旨在避开人类。此处应用动词不定式作目的状语。故填to avoid。
57．答案：from
解析：考查介词。keep away from ... “远离……”，为固定搭配。故填from。
58．答案：looking
解析：考查非谓语动词。spend time doing sth “花时间做某事”，为固定搭配。故填looking。
59．答案：frighten
解析：考查词性转换。情态动词can后应接动词原形。故填frighten。
60．答案：What
解析：考查主语从句的连接词。设空处引导主语从句，表示“……的事”，应用连接代词what。句首单词首字母应大写。故填What。

63．答案：were published
解析：考查动词的时态和语态。谓语动词publish和句子的主语Results是被动关系，且根据时间状语“two months ago”可知，描述的是发生在过去的事情，应用一般过去时的被动语态。故填were published。
64．答案：unusual
解析：考查反义词。此处表示先前没人对此进行过如此详细的研究，所以这些新的发现显得不同寻常，应用usual的反义词。故填unusual。
65．答案：as

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。
Riya, an 8 year old pupil, lived happily in a big city with her parents, who loved Riya dearly and did what they could to buy what she wanted for her. Riya was smart and excellent in her studies. Not only that, she was always ready to help others.
One day when Riya entered her classroom, she saw a crowd admiring Riya's friend Mary's new pen and talking cheerfully. Riya fell in love with that pen at first glance and desired to get Mary's permission to let her use it. Seconds later, the school bell rang, sending the children hurrying to the school grounds for morning prayers.
After a while, their teacher Grace let Riya fetch some chalk from the classroom, in which Riya once again saw Mary's delicate pen, lying on the desk elegantly. Riya took it fondly and went to her desk, ready to write on her book with the lovely pen when she heard the sound of someone walking by. Without thinking, she put the pen in her pocket and saw who it was. Jane, another friend of hers, was returning to the classroom. Riya immediately ran out from the back door noiselessly and went to the playground to pray.
The morning prayers finished, everyone went to class, followed by their teacher Grace. The moment Mary found her pen was missing, she got annoyed. Without delay, she ran to the front and complained to Grace, saying in tears, “Someone must have stolen my new pen.”
Having quietened the noisy class, Grace asked them who was in the classroom during the prayers. Almost everyone pointed at Jane, who explained she just felt uncomfortable when praying and came back to rest. Grace asked Jane if she had taken Mary's new pen, to which Jane said no firmly, insisting she knew nothing about that pen. But she had nobody to prove her words. Suspected and feeling sad, Jane burst out crying.
Everything happened fast and unexpectedly before Riya suddenly realized the pen was still in her pocket. She froze on the spot, afraid of being treated as a thief.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150个左右；
2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
But Riya knew what was the right thing to do. Grace nodded and patted Riya on the back with a relieved smile.
写前导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Riya (瑞亚)因为很喜欢朋友Mary (玛丽)的钢笔，想拿Mary的钢笔写下她的名字，结果Jane (简)突然走进教室，慌乱之下的Riya赶紧把笔放进口袋里，一场误会就此产生。Riya会怎么做？这场误会解除了吗？
[精彩范文]
But Riya knew what was the right thing to do. Nervous and anxious as she was, Riya took courage to walk toward Jane, standing in front of her and saying in an apologetic voice, “Sorry, Jane, it was I that made you misunderstood by others.” Then, Riya turned around to tell Grace what was the truth and claimed that the misunderstanding was caused by her inconsideration. She apologized to Mary with head bowed and tears running down her cheeks, asking sincerely, “I am really sorry for using the new pen without your permission. But I did not do it on purpose.Could you please forgive me？” After her words, the air in the classroom seemed to be still like dead water.
Grace nodded and patted Riya on the back with a relieved smile. She cleared her throat, uttering, “Riya, I am so touched by your honesty and courage. You are a good girl.” She also expressed her apology to Jane and comforted her. She told the whole class that making a mistake was not terrible and that the courage to admit it truly counted. Apparently, Riya set a good example for everyone else. Since it was a misunderstanding, Mary grinned understandingly at Riya and replied, “I forgive you and I'd like to share this new pen with you.” Hearing her words, Riya couldn't help hugging Mary. It was at that time that Riya came to realize what mattered most was not the mistake made by her but honesty and courage to take the blame for it.

In high school I was very shy, and content to hang around with my small group of friends and concentrate on my courses. I was quickly regarded as a “brain”. I did so well that by the end of the senior year I had perfect grades and enough credits to give up an entire quarter of coursework.
But in early June of the senior year, the principal called me into his office. He asked me to give a speech at graduation. I gaped at (目瞪口呆地凝视) him, my heart thumping. This was the reward for my hard work I mumbled something and fled the office, blaming myself for staying away from physics, a subject sure to have ruined my perfect record.
I finally agreed to a compromise. I would share the honor with five other students. And my friend Judy would then give her own full length speech.
Graduation day soon arrived. I'd been practicing my speech for days, and I had it memorized. The first half hour of the ceremony passed in a blur, and then my moment came. My name was announced. I managed to reach the podium (讲台) without falling down. I faced my classmates. My voice trembled a little, but mostly it was clear and strong. But within seconds, I was done and headed back to my seat. I accomplished something I'd never dreamed of—I spoke in front of hundreds of people.
Although I didn't realize it at the time, the successful completion of that speech gave me the confidence to participate in class at college, to give verbal reports, and to eventually break free from my shyness. I never would have chosen to give a speech at graduation ever. But I'm glad I did. I no longer hesitate when I'm faced with the prospect of doing something I dread. I know it may very well turn out to be one of my shining moments.

The day I met Hani Irmawati, she was a shy, 17 year old girl standing alone in the parking lot of the international school in Indonesia, where I teach English. She asked if I could help her improve her English. I could tell it took immense (巨大的) courage for the young Indonesian girl to approach me and ask for help.
“I want to go to a US university，” she said with confidence. I was surprised.
I agreed to work with her on a volunteer basis. For several months, Hani woke each morning at five and caught the city bus to her public high school. During the ride, she studied for her regular classes and the English assignments I had given her. At four o'clock in the afternoon, she arrived at my classroom, exhausted but ready to work.
Hani lived in a two room house with her parents and two brothers. When I met them at their house, I realized they would never be able to afford the expenses of a US university. Hani's enthusiasm was increasing with her language ability, but I was becoming more and more discouraged.
One day I received the announcement of a scholarship opportunity for a major US university. After reading the requirements, I knew Hani couldn't meet the qualifications. I told her that there was only a slim chance of her getting the scholarship and encouraged her to be more “realistic” about her dream. But she remained determined.
“Will you send in my name？” she asked.
I couldn't turn her down. I completed the application, with the painful truth about her academic life, but also with my praise of her courage and perseverance.
In the weeks that followed, I arranged for her to take the Test of English Fluency in Jakarta. The entire test would be an enormous challenge for someone who had never touched a computer before. For two weeks, we studied how a computer works. Then, just before Hani went to Jakarta, she received a letter from the scholarship association. She had been accepted.
I leaped around the room, overjoyed and shocked. Hani stood by, smiling. I realized that it was I who had learned something Hani had known from the beginning: It is not intelligence alone that brings success, but also the drive to succeed, the commitment to work hard and the courage to believe in yourself.
篇章导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了家境贫困的印尼女孩Hani (哈尼)凭着自信和努力学习的决心成功获得原本机会渺茫的奖学金的故事。

29．What made the author feel discouraged
A．Hani's slow improvement in English.
B．Hani's family's financial situation.
C．Hani's choice of universities.
D．Hani's overconfidence in her ability.
解析：细节理解题。根据第四段中的“When I met them ... was becoming more and more discouraged.”可知，作者意识到Hani负担不起美国大学的费用，即Hani的家庭经济状况不佳让作者感到气馁。故选B。
30．What happened when Hani applied for the scholarship
A．The author encouraged her to apply.
B．The author spoke highly of her academic performance.
C．She insisted on having a try despite her disadvantages.
D．She stood out because of her computer skills.
解析：细节理解题。根据第五段中的“I told her that there ... But she remained determined.”可知，获得奖学金的机会渺茫，尽管Hani处于劣势，但是她仍然坚定地去尝试。故选C。
31．What did the author learn from Hani
A．English opens doors to new opportunities.
B．It is important to dream big and aim high.
C．Confidence and determination are the key to success.
D．A supportive teacher means a lot to students.
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段中的“I realized that it was I ... the courage to believe in yourself.”可推知，作者从Hani身上学到了：自信和决心是成功的关键。故选C。
D
Are you bad at math If you answer yes, consider this question: Are you bad at math because you didn't study hard enough to learn the material or because you lack the ability to be good at it
As it turns out, many children believe that they don't do well on math tests because they're intellectually incapable (无能的) of understanding the material. They have no reason to try harder, thus trapping them in a state of being bad at math.
Educators Miles Kimball and Noah Smith argue that this is a big problem, “Math is the great mental subject of an unconfident America. If we can convince you that anyone can learn math, it should be a short step to convincing you that you can learn just about anything, if you work hard enough.”
Psychologist Carol Dweck took on the task of convincing a group of students that if they worked hard they could become smarter. The truly remarkable part of that study was not that the kids improved and earned higher grades; it was that Dweck noted that a few of the tough boys in the group were brought to tears, learning that the level of intelligence they could reach was limitless—it was entirely up to them.
Of course, not all of us will become genius mathematicians, but the majority of us can become skilled and maybe even good at math. As Mashable points out, while dyscalculia (计算障碍), a math disability, is a real thing, only 6 percent of the population is likely to have it. For the rest of us, it's a confidence problem, or a lack of belief that with hard work, we'll improve. Thankfully, we now know better, and we can pass on that__information to the next generation.

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。
Riya, an 8 year old pupil, lived happily in a big city with her parents, who loved Riya dearly and did what they could to buy what she wanted for her. Riya was smart and excellent in her studies. Not only that, she was always ready to help others.
One day when Riya entered her classroom, she saw a crowd admiring Riya's friend Mary's new pen and talking cheerfully. Riya fell in love with that pen at first glance and desired to get Mary's permission to let her use it. Seconds later, the school bell rang, sending the children hurrying to the school grounds for morning prayers.
After a while, their teacher Grace let Riya fetch some chalk from the classroom, in which Riya once again saw Mary's delicate pen, lying on the desk elegantly. Riya took it fondly and went to her desk, ready to write on her book with the lovely pen when she heard the sound of someone walking by. Without thinking, she put the pen in her pocket and saw who it was. Jane, another friend of hers, was returning to the classroom. Riya immediately ran out from the back door noiselessly and went to the playground to pray.
The morning prayers finished, everyone went to class, followed by their teacher Grace. The moment Mary found her pen was missing, she got annoyed. Without delay, she ran to the front and complained to Grace, saying in tears, “Someone must have stolen my new pen.”
Having quietened the noisy class, Grace asked them who was in the classroom during the prayers. Almost everyone pointed at Jane, who explained she just felt uncomfortable when praying and came back to rest. Grace asked Jane if she had taken Mary's new pen, to which Jane said no firmly, insisting she knew nothing about that pen. But she had nobody to prove her words. Suspected and feeling sad, Jane burst out crying.
Everything happened fast and unexpectedly before Riya suddenly realized the pen was still in her pocket. She froze on the spot, afraid of being treated as a thief.
注意：
1．续写词数应为150个左右；
2．请按如下格式在相应位置作答。
But Riya knew what was the right thing to do.﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍
Grace nodded and patted Riya on the back with a relieved smile. ﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍﹍
写前导读：本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了Riya (瑞亚)因为很喜欢朋友Mary (玛丽)的钢笔，想拿Mary的钢笔写下她的名字，结果Jane (简)突然走进教室，慌乱之下的Riya赶紧把笔放进口袋里，一场误会就此产生。Riya会怎么做？这场误会解除了吗？
[精彩范文]
But Riya knew what was the right thing to do. Nervous and anxious as she was, Riya took courage to walk toward Jane, standing in front of her and saying in an apologetic voice, “Sorry, Jane, it was I that made you misunderstood by others.” Then, Riya turned around to tell Grace what was the truth and claimed that the misunderstanding was caused by her inconsideration. She apologized to Mary with head bowed and tears running down her cheeks, asking sincerely, “I am really sorry for using the new pen without your permission. But I did not do it on purpose.Could you please forgive me？” After her words, the air in the classroom seemed to be still like dead water.
Grace nodded and patted Riya on the back with a relieved smile. She cleared her throat, uttering, “Riya, I am so touched by your honesty and courage. You are a good girl.” She also expressed her apology to Jane and comforted her. She told the whole class that making a mistake was not terrible and that the courage to admit it truly counted. Apparently, Riya set a good example for everyone else. Since it was a misunderstanding, Mary grinned understandingly at Riya and replied, “I forgive you and I'd like to share this new pen with you.” Hearing her words, Riya couldn't help hugging Mary. It was at that time that Riya came to realize what mattered most was not the mistake made by her but honesty and courage to take the blame for it.
