Are you a teen looking for help
Opening up to someone can be scary. Talking about what you're dealing with is often hard, but at Teen Line we do everything we can to make it as easy as possible for you. Our only goal is to help you in whatever way we can.
What to expect when you call or text Teen Line
When you call or text Teen Line, another teen will be there to listen, understand, and answer your questions. Many of our callers are talking to someone about what they're going through for the first time. Our teen listeners are aware of that and try to make you as comfortable as possible.
When you call or text Teen Line, we won't judge you or tell you what to do. We will listen to you and work with you to find a way to improve your situation.
Who is going to answer your call or text
Our volunteers, who are high school students from Los Angeles, California, will answer your call. Our volunteers—who we call “Listeners”—receive over 100 hours of training from mental health professionals so that they can respond and understand the needs of the teens reaching out.
What topics can you discuss with us
Listeners are ready to talk about anything you are going through. The most common topics teens reach out about are relationships, anxiety, depression and loneliness.

When you hear the word “birthmark”， you probably think of one of those black or brown spots that you have on your body. For me, it's different—I have them on my lips and inside my mouth.I'm used to being asked, “What are those black marks on your lips？” When I tell people they're birthmarks, they usually say, “That's strange.” I used to consider them ugly.However, my mom calls them beauty marks.
In pictures, I used to hide my birthmarks by pursing (噘起) my lips so I wouldn't have to deal with people's questions.As I was growing up, people wore me out with them.Some people would ask me the same question even before knowing my name.In society I feel like we judge people by their looks before their personality.
My birthmarks are caused by a genetic (基因的) condition from my mom's side of the family.My mom's mom has birthmarks on her lips, and my mom's uncle and my uncle have some on their bodies.Every year I plan to have a procedure to remove them.But when imagining the process, I always get nervous and give up.
My cousin faces a similar challenge.She has a huge birthmark that takes up her whole arm.She's never tried to hide it or change her appearance.Once, her grandmother told her that the birthmark looked extremely prominent and suggested that she should wear long sleeves more often.If my cousin had actually taken that suggestion, she wouldn't be such a person as she is.
Inspired by my cousin, I am finally accepting who I am and now I don't hesitate when someone asks me about them either.I say, “They're beauty marks” and smile without pursing my lips.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者非常在意自己嘴唇和嘴里都有胎记，但在表姐的启发下，作者终于接受了自己的胎记的故事。
√
24．How did the author feel when asked about the birthmarks
A．She felt excited to show her difference.
B.She felt annoyed to give others an answer.
C．She was scared to be made fun of by people.
D．She was bored to be faced with the question.
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“In pictures...wore me out with them.”可知，作者在过去面对人们反复问胎记的问题时会感到厌倦，心情不好。
√
25．Who has the similar birthmarks like the author
A．Her mother. B．Her grandmother.
C．Her cousin. D．Her uncle.
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“My mom's mom has birthmarks on her lips”可知，作者的外祖母嘴唇上也有胎记，所以作者和外祖母有相似的胎记。
√
26．What can be inferred about the author's cousin
A.She dislikes talking about her birthmarks.
B.She never judges others by their looks.
C．She is more confident than the author.

√
27．What does the underlined word “prominent” in paragraph 4 mean
A.Brilliant. B．Apparent.
C．Harmful. D．Impressive.
解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词后面的“she should wear long sleeves more often”可知，表姐的奶奶想让她用长袖衣衫遮挡胎记，因为她觉得胎记太明显了。画线词与B项“Apparent”意义相近。
C
Nothing feels more like summer than a neighborhood barbecue. But the annoyance of summer gatherings remains: the buzzing (嗡嗡声) of mosquitoes around our ears.
“The buzzing in your ears is mostly just a side effect of the mosquito's wings beating，” said Michael Riehle, a professor at the University of Arizona. “The sound doesn't have a long range, so you notice it most when they are flying around your ears.”
“From a distance, mosquitoes track carbon dioxide that we give out.” Riehle told Live Science. “They fly back and forth to follow that concentration level back to the source.”
But in fact, that buzzing you hear is likely from a female mosquito. That's because male and female mosquitoes lead very different lives. The males typically hang out and feed on the sweetest part of flowers; they couldn't care less about the humans wandering about. The females, however, need to find a blood meal in order to have enough energy to produce eggs.
As she approaches, the female mosquito zeros in on body heat and the carbon dioxide to land on the victim. The female mosquito uses taste sensors on her feet to determine whether the human, or any blood-bearing animal, is adequate to tap for her next meal.
But while we feel mosquitoes buzzing around our ears, Riehle noted that most mosquitoes are not attracted to our heads. Rather, these bloodsuckers may be more likely to seek out our feet, which have bacteria that give off attractive smell to mosquitoes. However, most people probably don't notice a mosquito buzzing around their ankles, he said.
Another study found that female mosquitoes were more attracted to men who had less diverse bacteria on their skin than to men with more diverse skin bacteria; these bloodsuckers also prefer those who wear dark colors, such as black.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了蚊子为什么会在人们耳边发出嗡嗡声以及迈克尔·里勒教授的一些看法。
√
28．What attracts mosquitoes to our heads
A．There is most carbon dioxide.
B．The face skin is easy to stick in.
C．There exists their favorite smell.
D．They can suck most blood there.
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段内容可知，蚊子在人们头部盘旋是因为它们追踪人们释放的二氧化碳，根据浓度水平找到二氧化碳的源头，即头部的二氧化碳最多。
√
29．What do female mosquitoes use to determine a meal
A.Her nose. B．Her sensors.
C．Her eyes. D．Her ears.
解析：细节理解题。根据第五段中的“The female mosquito uses taste sensors...for her next meal.”可知，雌性蚊子利用脚上的味觉传感器来判断。
√
30．What color might help avoid mosquitoes most according to the passage
A.Black. B．Blue.
C．White. D．Red.
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知，蚊子喜欢深色的衣服，所以为了避蚊，最好是穿浅色的衣服。
√
31．What can be the best title for the passage
A．Why Do Mosquitoes Buzz in Our Ears
B.How Can We Avoid the Buzzing of Mosquitoes
C.How Are Male and Female Mosquitoes Different
D.What Effect Does the Buzzing of Mosquitoes Have
解析：标题归纳题。通读全文可知，文章介绍了蚊子为什么会在人们耳边发出嗡嗡声，因此，A项最适合作文章标题。
D
Parkinson's is a progressive brain disease which leads to shaky hands and slow movement, and there is no cure.Tai Chi, a traditional Chinese martial art that combines (结合) slow, gentle movements with deep breathing and relaxation, may be an effective means of reducing the suffering.Recently, the researchers say that those who practised the martial art twice a week had fewer complications (并发症) and better quality of life than those who didn't.Experts say the findings back up previous studies on the benefits of exercise for those with Parkinson's.
The study, from Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, monitored the health of hundreds of Parkinson's patients for up to five years.One group of 147 people practised regular Tai Chi while another group of 187 did not.The researchers found that the disease progressed more slowly in the Tai Chi group on measurements of symptoms (症状), movement and balance.This group also saw fewer falls, less back pain and dizziness, with memory and concentration problems also lower than in the other group.At the same time, sleep and quality of life continuously improved.
Prof.Alastair Noyce, professor in neurology and neuroepidemiology (神经流行病学) at Queen Mary University of London, called it “an important study”—the positive effects on aspects of motor (运动的) and non-motor functions are impressive—but said there were limitations in its design, and more tests were needed.
“We already recommend Tai Chi, as well as other forms of exercise, but understanding which forms of exercise are most beneficial is an important goal to improve the long-term management of patients，” he said.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项新的研究。该研究表明，练习太极拳有助于缓解帕金森氏病的症状。
√
32．Why was the study conducted
A．To find a cure for Parkinson's disease.
B．To improve the sleep quality of Parkinson's patients.
C.To remove the misunderstanding of the previous studies.
D．To research the benefits of Tai Chi for those with Parkinson's.
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段最后两句和第二段中的“The study...monitored the health of hundreds of Parkinson's patients for up to five years.”可推知，进行这项研究是为了研究太极拳给那些患有帕金森氏病的人带来的好处。
√
33．Which of the following is NOT the researchers' finding
A.Concentration problem was lower in the Tai Chi group.
B．The disease progressed more slowly in the Tai Chi group.
C.Patients in the non-Tai Chi group continuously fell down.
D.Back pain and dizziness were relieved in the Tai Chi group.
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The researchers found that the disease progressed...lower than in the other group.”可知，太极拳组的病情发展较慢，跌倒、背痛和头晕次数更少，记忆力和注意力问题也更轻微，选项A、B、D均是研究发现，C项不符合题意。
√
34．What is Prof.Alastair Noyce's attitude towards the study
A．Confused. B．Doubtful.
C．Positive. D．Worried.
解析：观点态度题。根据第三段中的“Prof. Alastair Nayce...non-motor functions are impressive”可推知，他对这项研究持肯定态度。
√
35．What can we learn from Prof.Alastair Noyce's words
A.Tai Chi should be given more preference.
B．Finding the most beneficial exercise is of importance.
C．It is unnecessary to do more related studies.
D.Improve the long-term management of patients is impossible.
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知，他认为找到最有益的锻炼方式是非常重要的。

One possible version：
The English corner of our school recently held a discussion on whether it is advisable to put rubbish into space.
Opinions are divided on this issue.About 40% of the students support the idea of putting rubbish into space while 60% of the students hold the opposite view.Personally, I don't think it is advisable to put rubbish into space.First of all, more and more space rubbish will surely cause serious pollution to the space.Secondly, throwing rubbish into space can severely threaten the safety of spacecraft.
In a word, we should oppose the act of putting rubbish into space and come up with better ways to solve it.
第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面的材料，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。
When school was over, the day was fading and it started to drizzle (毛毛雨).I stood at the school gate, with a loaded backpack on my shoulders.It was Friday again: a weekend of joy with unlimited sleeping hours and dinner courses specially made to my taste, a weekend at home.I waved goodbye to my friends as they jumped into their fathers' warm and comfortable cars.Curiously, this gave rise to a disturbing feeling in me.It was not exactly what they called jealousy, but something like dismay (沮丧).I knew all I could expect was an old bike Mom would ride along on, with the badly-oiled chain creaking (嘎吱作响) against the wheel to announce her arrival.
Every Friday when Mom came to pick me up for the weekend, it was a moment full of great expectation and great unease.I always felt my face burning as we rode our way in and out of the numerous cars and saw my friends' faces sticking out of the cars' windows.It was like stepping into a ballroom with beautifully dressed ladies and finding yourself in a smelly T-shirt.
To tell you the truth, Mom is quite a headache once in a while.She just looks a homely middle-aged housewife.Being a practitioner of DIY, she knits most of my sweaters, chiefly in old styles.Whenever caught by some curious classmates asking what brand my sweaters are, I'd force a smile and reply in a half joking manner: homemade.
I couldn't remember when I started to find her such an embarrassment.As a little boy, I relied on her so much.She had been working at home, cooking in the kitchen, knitting by the lamp or riding across town to buy me a book I badly needed.It had always been much fun riding with Mom. But just now there seemed to be something standing between us, something that made her so strange to me and me to her.
注意：续写词数应为150左右。
Today she showed up in a raincoat._________________________

Mom tried to cover me with the back of the raincoat again as a storm set in._________________________________________________

One possible version：
Today she showed up in a raincoat. Seeing her standing in the heavy rain with all the body wet, I finally could not control myself and shouted at her, “Why do you look so flustered I don't need you to take me home.I feel ashamed to have a mother like you！” Suddenly, Mom was shocked and silent.Maybe, she had never thought that I would have that feeling of her appearance and our home condition.She said nothing and just covered the raincoat on me.I pushed it away wildly.
Mom tried to cover me with the back of the raincoat again as a storm set in. With a smile, she said, “Dear son, I'm trying my best to earn our living, and I'm sure that if we work harder, we will get whatever we want in the future.” Hearing her words, I felt embarrassed.I thought of the time when she knitted in the deep night and cooked for me in the early morning.Yes, she had always been doing whatever she could to make me live well.But I was still unsatisfied.I had known that if I wanted to get what others had, I should spare no effort to study hard and get it by myself.

Are you a teen looking for help
Opening up to someone can be scary. Talking about what you're dealing with is often hard, but at Teen Line we do everything we can to make it as easy as possible for you. Our only goal is to help you in whatever way we can.
What to expect when you call or text Teen Line
When you call or text Teen Line, another teen will be there to listen, understand, and answer your questions. Many of our callers are talking to someone about what they're going through for the first time. Our teen listeners are aware of that and try to make you as comfortable as possible.
When you call or text Teen Line, we won't judge you or tell you what to do. We will listen to you and work with you to find a way to improve your situation.
Who is going to answer your call or text
Our volunteers, who are high school students from Los Angeles, California, will answer your call. Our volunteers—who we call “Listeners”—receive over 100 hours of training from mental health professionals so that they can respond and understand the needs of the teens reaching out.
What topics can you discuss with us
Listeners are ready to talk about anything you are going through. The most common topics teens reach out about are relationships, anxiety, depression and loneliness.

When you hear the word “birthmark”， you probably think of one of those black or brown spots that you have on your body. For me, it's different—I have them on my lips and inside my mouth.I'm used to being asked, “What are those black marks on your lips？” When I tell people they're birthmarks, they usually say, “That's strange.” I used to consider them ugly.However, my mom calls them beauty marks.
In pictures, I used to hide my birthmarks by pursing (噘起) my lips so I wouldn't have to deal with people's questions.As I was growing up, people wore me out with them.Some people would ask me the same question even before knowing my name.In society I feel like we judge people by their looks before their personality.
My birthmarks are caused by a genetic (基因的) condition from my mom's side of the family.My mom's mom has birthmarks on her lips, and my mom's uncle and my uncle have some on their bodies.Every year I plan to have a procedure to remove them.But when imagining the process, I always get nervous and give up.
My cousin faces a similar challenge.She has a huge birthmark that takes up her whole arm.She's never tried to hide it or change her appearance.Once, her grandmother told her that the birthmark looked extremely prominent and suggested that she should wear long sleeves more often.If my cousin had actually taken that suggestion, she wouldn't be such a person as she is.
Inspired by my cousin, I am finally accepting who I am and now I don't hesitate when someone asks me about them either.I say, “They're beauty marks” and smile without pursing my lips.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者非常在意自己嘴唇和嘴里都有胎记，但在表姐的启发下，作者终于接受了自己的胎记的故事。
√
24．How did the author feel when asked about the birthmarks
A．She felt excited to show her difference.
B.She felt annoyed to give others an answer.
C．She was scared to be made fun of by people.
D．She was bored to be faced with the question.

√
25．Who has the similar birthmarks like the author
A．Her mother. B．Her grandmother.
C．Her cousin. D．Her uncle.
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段中的“My mom's mom has birthmarks on her lips”可知，作者的外祖母嘴唇上也有胎记，所以作者和外祖母有相似的胎记。

A.She dislikes talking about her birthmarks.
B.She never judges others by their looks.
C．She is more confident than the author.

√
27．What does the underlined word “prominent” in paragraph 4 mean
A.Brilliant. B．Apparent.
C．Harmful. D．Impressive.
解析：词义猜测题。根据画线词后面的“she should wear long sleeves more often”可知，表姐的奶奶想让她用长袖衣衫遮挡胎记，因为她觉得胎记太明显了。画线词与B项“Apparent”意义相近。
C
Nothing feels more like summer than a neighborhood barbecue. But the annoyance of summer gatherings remains: the buzzing (嗡嗡声) of mosquitoes around our ears.
“The buzzing in your ears is mostly just a side effect of the mosquito's wings beating，” said Michael Riehle, a professor at the University of Arizona. “The sound doesn't have a long range, so you notice it most when they are flying around your ears.”
“From a distance, mosquitoes track carbon dioxide that we give out.” Riehle told Live Science. “They fly back and forth to follow that concentration level back to the source.”
But in fact, that buzzing you hear is likely from a female mosquito. That's because male and female mosquitoes lead very different lives. The males typically hang out and feed on the sweetest part of flowers; they couldn't care less about the humans wandering about. The females, however, need to find a blood meal in order to have enough energy to produce eggs.
As she approaches, the female mosquito zeros in on body heat and the carbon dioxide to land on the victim. The female mosquito uses taste sensors on her feet to determine whether the human, or any blood-bearing animal, is adequate to tap for her next meal.
But while we feel mosquitoes buzzing around our ears, Riehle noted that most mosquitoes are not attracted to our heads. Rather, these bloodsuckers may be more likely to seek out our feet, which have bacteria that give off attractive smell to mosquitoes. However, most people probably don't notice a mosquito buzzing around their ankles, he said.
Another study found that female mosquitoes were more attracted to men who had less diverse bacteria on their skin than to men with more diverse skin bacteria; these bloodsuckers also prefer those who wear dark colors, such as black.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了蚊子为什么会在人们耳边发出嗡嗡声以及迈克尔·里勒教授的一些看法。
√
28．What attracts mosquitoes to our heads
A．There is most carbon dioxide.
B．The face skin is easy to stick in.
C．There exists their favorite smell.
D．They can suck most blood there.
解析：细节理解题。根据第三段内容可知，蚊子在人们头部盘旋是因为它们追踪人们释放的二氧化碳，根据浓度水平找到二氧化碳的源头，即头部的二氧化碳最多。
√
29．What do female mosquitoes use to determine a meal
A.Her nose. B．Her sensors.
C．Her eyes. D．Her ears.
解析：细节理解题。根据第五段中的“The female mosquito uses taste sensors...for her next meal.”可知，雌性蚊子利用脚上的味觉传感器来判断。
√
30．What color might help avoid mosquitoes most according to the passage
A.Black. B．Blue.
C．White. D．Red.
解析：推理判断题。根据最后一段内容可知，蚊子喜欢深色的衣服，所以为了避蚊，最好是穿浅色的衣服。
√
31．What can be the best title for the passage
A．Why Do Mosquitoes Buzz in Our Ears
B.How Can We Avoid the Buzzing of Mosquitoes
C.How Are Male and Female Mosquitoes Different
D.What Effect Does the Buzzing of Mosquitoes Have
解析：标题归纳题。通读全文可知，文章介绍了蚊子为什么会在人们耳边发出嗡嗡声，因此，A项最适合作文章标题。
D
Parkinson's is a progressive brain disease which leads to shaky hands and slow movement, and there is no cure.Tai Chi, a traditional Chinese martial art that combines (结合) slow, gentle movements with deep breathing and relaxation, may be an effective means of reducing the suffering.Recently, the researchers say that those who practised the martial art twice a week had fewer complications (并发症) and better quality of life than those who didn't.Experts say the findings back up previous studies on the benefits of exercise for those with Parkinson's.
The study, from Shanghai Jiao Tong University School of Medicine, monitored the health of hundreds of Parkinson's patients for up to five years.One group of 147 people practised regular Tai Chi while another group of 187 did not.The researchers found that the disease progressed more slowly in the Tai Chi group on measurements of symptoms (症状), movement and balance.This group also saw fewer falls, less back pain and dizziness, with memory and concentration problems also lower than in the other group.At the same time, sleep and quality of life continuously improved.
Prof.Alastair Noyce, professor in neurology and neuroepidemiology (神经流行病学) at Queen Mary University of London, called it “an important study”—the positive effects on aspects of motor (运动的) and non-motor functions are impressive—but said there were limitations in its design, and more tests were needed.
“We already recommend Tai Chi, as well as other forms of exercise, but understanding which forms of exercise are most beneficial is an important goal to improve the long-term management of patients，” he said.
【解题导语】 本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了一项新的研究。该研究表明，练习太极拳有助于缓解帕金森氏病的症状。
√
32．Why was the study conducted
A．To find a cure for Parkinson's disease.
B．To improve the sleep quality of Parkinson's patients.
C.To remove the misunderstanding of the previous studies.
D．To research the benefits of Tai Chi for those with Parkinson's.
解析：推理判断题。根据第一段最后两句和第二段中的“The study...monitored the health of hundreds of Parkinson's patients for up to five years.”可推知，进行这项研究是为了研究太极拳给那些患有帕金森氏病的人带来的好处。
√
33．Which of the following is NOT the researchers' finding
A.Concentration problem was lower in the Tai Chi group.
B．The disease progressed more slowly in the Tai Chi group.
C.Patients in the non-Tai Chi group continuously fell down.
D.Back pain and dizziness were relieved in the Tai Chi group.
解析：细节理解题。根据第二段中的“The researchers found that the disease progressed...lower than in the other group.”可知，太极拳组的病情发展较慢，跌倒、背痛和头晕次数更少，记忆力和注意力问题也更轻微，选项A、B、D均是研究发现，C项不符合题意。
√
34．What is Prof.Alastair Noyce's attitude towards the study

One possible version：
The English corner of our school recently held a discussion on whether it is advisable to put rubbish into space.
Opinions are divided on this issue.About 40% of the students support the idea of putting rubbish into space while 60% of the students hold the opposite view.Personally, I don't think it is advisable to put rubbish into space.First of all, more and more space rubbish will surely cause serious pollution to the space.Secondly, throwing rubbish into space can severely threaten the safety of spacecraft.
In a word, we should oppose the act of putting rubbish into space and come up with better ways to solve it.
第二节(满分25分)
阅读下面的材料，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。
When school was over, the day was fading and it started to drizzle (毛毛雨).I stood at the school gate, with a loaded backpack on my shoulders.It was Friday again: a weekend of joy with unlimited sleeping hours and dinner courses specially made to my taste, a weekend at home.I waved goodbye to my friends as they jumped into their fathers' warm and comfortable cars.Curiously, this gave rise to a disturbing feeling in me.It was not exactly what they called jealousy, but something like dismay (沮丧).I knew all I could expect was an old bike Mom would ride along on, with the badly-oiled chain creaking (嘎吱作响) against the wheel to announce her arrival.
Every Friday when Mom came to pick me up for the weekend, it was a moment full of great expectation and great unease.I always felt my face burning as we rode our way in and out of the numerous cars and saw my friends' faces sticking out of the cars' windows.It was like stepping into a ballroom with beautifully dressed ladies and finding yourself in a smelly T-shirt.
To tell you the truth, Mom is quite a headache once in a while.She just looks a homely middle-aged housewife.Being a practitioner of DIY, she knits most of my sweaters, chiefly in old styles.Whenever caught by some curious classmates asking what brand my sweaters are, I'd force a smile and reply in a half joking manner: homemade.
I couldn't remember when I started to find her such an embarrassment.As a little boy, I relied on her so much.She had been working at home, cooking in the kitchen, knitting by the lamp or riding across town to buy me a book I badly needed.It had always been much fun riding with Mom. But just now there seemed to be something standing between us, something that made her so strange to me and me to her.
注意：续写词数应为150左右。

One possible version：
Today she showed up in a raincoat. Seeing her standing in the heavy rain with all the body wet, I finally could not control myself and shouted at her, “Why do you look so flustered I don't need you to take me home.I feel ashamed to have a mother like you！” Suddenly, Mom was shocked and silent.Maybe, she had never thought that I would have that feeling of her appearance and our home condition.She said nothing and just covered the raincoat on me.I pushed it away wildly.
Mom tried to cover me with the back of the raincoat again as a storm set in. With a smile, she said, “Dear son, I'm trying my best to earn our living, and I'm sure that if we work harder, we will get whatever we want in the future.” Hearing her words, I felt embarrassed.I thought of the time when she knitted in the deep night and cooked for me in the early morning.Yes, she had always been doing whatever she could to make me live well.But I was still unsatisfied.I had known that if I wanted to get what others had, I should spare no effort to study hard and get it by myself.
