Ⅰ. 阅读理解
Alida Monaco doesn’t spend her summers doing the usual teenage work, like working at the mall. Instead, she’s studying.
It used to be that a summer job was considered a teenage thing. Today, Monaco, who has never had a summer job, is part of growing trend(趋势) teenagers concentrating on their studies, even during the summer. That’s down from 72% of Americans aged 16 to 19 who worked in July of 1978, according to the U. S. Bureau of Labor Statistics.
Fierce competition, older workers returning to the workforce and weak economic growth are all adding to the decrease of teenagers in the workforce. But as schoolwork grows increasingly heavy and homework eats up more time, data suggest the biggest reason why some teens won’t be working this summer is that they simply don’t have time.
For college-bound teens, some teachers even advise students not to waste time on a summer job. “Some of my students only have about six weeks off in the summer, ” said Shannon Reed, a lecturer at the University of Pittsburgh and a former high school English teacher. “I could never advise that they get jobs during that short break. They should rest. ”
Young people who don’t work may miss out on valuable skills that they’ll need later in life. Early work experiences teach reliability, financial intelligence, self-control and help people learn to deal with adult situations. But Monaco, who plans to attend Harvard, isn’t fazed by her lack of work experience. “Maybe I have missed out on a couple of life skills, ” she said. “But I don’t think it will harm me in any way. ”
【文章大意】本文作者介绍了美国青少年夏天的一种倾向, 分析了造成学生不去打工而是把精力用在了学习上的原因。
1. What is the trend of American teenagers?
A. They are becoming lazy.
B. They are becoming keen on doing holiday jobs.
C. They are focusing more on studies than on jobs.
D. They are becoming particular about holiday jobs.
【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据第二段第一、二句It used to be that a summer job was considered a teenage thing. Today, Monaco, who has never had a summer job, is part of growing trend teenagers concentrating on their studies, even during the summer可知, 过去美国的青少年在夏天常常找工作做, 但现在却把精力集中到了学习上。
2. What is the third paragraph mainly about?
A. The reasons for teenagers giving up work.
B. The fierce competition teenagers face.
C. The structure of America’s workforce.
D. The effects of America’s weak economy.
【解析】选A。主旨大意题。根据第三段最后一句中的data suggest the biggest reason why some teens won’t be working this summer is that they simply don’t have time可知, 本段主要解释学生为什么夏天不去做工作的原因。
3. What’s Shannon Reed’s attitude towards the new trend?
A. Uncaring. B. Favorable.
C. Worried. D. Doubtful.
【解析】选B。推理判断题。根据第四段最后两句“I could never advise that they get jobs during that short break. They should rest. ”可知, Shannon Reed不赞同学生夏季打工, 所以对于现在的倾向肯定持赞同态度。
4. What does the underlined word “fazed” in the last paragraph mean?
A. Motivated. B. Helped.
C. Bothered. D. Confused.
【解析】选C。词义猜测题。根据画线下句“Maybe I have missed out on a couple of life skills, ” she said. “But I don’t think it will harm me in any way. ”可知, 虽然Monaco缺失了夏天打工的经历, 但是她认为这件事不会对她造成任何伤害。所以她不会由此感到“困扰”。

MySpace, the social networking website, is different from other websites which only provide stories about other people. MySpace is a place that allows you to broadcast your own stories and personal information to as many people as you like. Started two years ago, it is a big source of information for and about American kids.
Teenagers and their parents feel very different about it. Teens are rushing to join the site, not sharing their parents’ worries. It signals yet another generation gap in the digital era.
For teenagers, it is reliable network to keep in touch with their friends. They will often list their surnames, birthdays, after-school jobs, school clubs, hobbies and other personal information.
“MySpace is an easy way to reach just about everyone. I don’t have all the phone numbers of my acquaintances. But if I want to get in touch with one of them, I could just leave them a message on MySpace, ”said Abby Van Wassen. She is a 16-year-old student at Woodland Hills High of Pittsburgh, Pennsylvania.
Parents on the other hand are seriously concerned about the security problems of MySpace. “Every time we hold a parents meeting, the first question is always about MySpace, ”said Kent Gates, who travels the country doing Internet safety seminars(研讨会). The National Centre for Missing and Exploited Children has received at least 288 MySpace-related complaints, according to Mary Beth Buchanan, a lawyer in Pittsburgh.
“Your profile on MySpace shows all your personal information to anyone on the Web. And MySpace even lists this information by birthplace and age. It’s like a free checklist for troublemakers and it endangers children, ” Buchanan said.

Football is my favorite sport. I loved to watch it, but I had never played in a football game before I went to college. I lacked self-confidence and I doubted if I could do well in a team, which was why I hardly did sports together with others. I just loved practicing playing football in the backyard of my house.
About one month after I went to college, one day some of my classmates said they’d play a football game with some players of another class. I really looked forward to it but never thought I’d join them to play. That day finally came and I went to watch with my classmates. However, just about ten minutes after the game started, one member of our football team got injured and could no longer play. The other members looked worried. Then one of them came to me and asked, “Can you play? ” At first, I shook my head, but then I nodded. “Great! Come and play, ” he said. I followed him, having no idea at all what to do. To my joy, he asked me to play in defense (防守). Defense was my favorite because I found it more fun and less complicated (复杂的). Then the game began again. There weren’t a lot of big kids on the offensive line (攻击线) of the other team and I suddenly gained some self-confidence. About five minutes later, the ball was kicked toward the guard. I thought it was a good opportunity for me. I quickly ran past the guard and got the ball. When the guard came to the offensive line, I kicked the ball. I scored and all my classmates cheered. You may not believe it, but I scored twice that time. The final score was 6-2 and we won. My teammates thought that I did very well and none of them believed I hadn’t played in a game before.
That game really changed me. I am a really confident person now and often play football games with my teammates.

He jabbed a finger at the proposal. “Next time you want to change anything, ask me first, ” he said, turning on his heels and leaving me stewing in anger. How dare he treat me like that, I thought. I had changed one long sentence, and corrected grammar, something I thought I was paid to do. It’s not that I hadn’t been warned. The other woman who had worked my job before me called Jack names I couldn’t repeat. One coworker took me aside the first day. “He’s personally responsible for two different secretaries leaving the firm, ” she whispered. As the weeks went by, I grew to despise Jack. It was against everything I believed in, turning the other cheek and loving your enemies. But Jack quickly slapped a verbal insult on any cheek turned his way. I prayed about, but to be honest, I wanted to put Jack in his place, not love him. One day another of his episodes left me in tears. I stormed into his office, prepared to lose my job if needed, but not before I let the man know how I felt. I opened the door and Jack glanced up. “What? ” he said abruptly. Suddenly I knew what I had to do. After all, he deserved it.
I sat across from him, “Jack, the way you’ve been treating me is wrong. I’ve never had anyone speak to me that way. As a professional, it’s wrong, and it’s wrong for me to allow it to continue. ” Jack snickered nervously and leaned back in his chair. I closed my eyes briefly. God help me, I prayed. “I want to make you a promise. I will be a friend, ” I said. “I will treat you as you deserve to be treated, with respect and kindness. You deserve that. Everybody does. ” I slipped out of the chair and closed the door behind me. Jack avoided me the rest of the week. Proposals, specs, and letters appeared on my desk while I was at lunch, and my corrected versions were not seen again. I brought cookies to the office one day and left a batch on his desk. Another day I left a note. “Hope your day is going great, ” it read. Over the next few weeks, Jack reappeared. He was reserved, but there were no other episodes. Coworkers cornered me in the break room. “Guess you got to Jack, ” they said. “You must have told him off good. ” I shook my head. “Jack and I are becoming friends, ” I said in faith. I refused to talk about him. Every time I saw Jack in the hall, I smiled at him. After all, that’s what friends do. One year after our “talk”, I discovered I had
breast cancer. I was thirty-two, the mother of three
beautiful young children, and scared. The cancer
had metastasized to my lymph nodes and the statistics
were not great for long-term survival. After surgery,
I visited with friends and loved ones who tried to find the right words to say. No one knew what to say, and many said the wrong things. Others wept, and I tried to encourage them. I clung to hope. The last day of my hospital stay, the door opened and Jack stood awkwardly under the threshold. I waved him in with a smile. He walked over to my bed and without a word placed a bundle beside me. Inside the package lay several bulbs.
Tulips, he said. I smiled, not understanding.
He cleared his throat. “If you plant them when you get home, they’ll come up next spring. ” He shuffled his feet. “I just wanted you to know that I think you’ll be there to see them when they come up. ” Tears clouded my eyes and I reached out my hand. “Thank you, ” I whispered.
Jack grasped my hand and gruffly replied, “You’re welcome. You can’t see it now, but next spring you’ll see the colors I picked out for you. ” He turned and left without another word. I have watched those red-and-white striped tulips push their way through the soil every spring for over ten years now. In fact, this September the doctor will declare me cured. I’ve seen my children graduate from high school and enter college. In a moment when I prayed for just the right word, a man with very few words said all the right things.
After all, that’s what friends do. 课时检测·素养达标

Making friends is a skill like most skills. It improves with practice. If you want to meet people and make friends, you must be willing to take some action. You must first go where there are people. You won’t make friends staying at home alone. Join a club or a group. Talking with those who like the same things as you do. Or join someone in some activities. Many people are nervous when talking to new people.
After all, meeting strangers means facing the unknown. And it’s human nature to feel a bit uncomfortable about the unknown. Most of our fears about dealing with new people come from doubts about ourselves.
We imagine other people are judging us or finding us too tall or too short, too this or too that. But don’t forget that they must be feeling the same way. Try to accept yourself as you are and try to put the other person at ease. You’ll both feel more comfortable.
Try to act self-confident even if you don’t feel that way. When you enter a room full of strangers, such as a new classroom, walk tall and straight, look directly at others and smile.
If you see someone you’d like to speak to, say something. Don’t wait for the other person to start a conversation.
Just meeting someone new does not mean that you will make friends with that person—friendship is based on mutual liking and“give and take”. It takes time and effort to develop.
【文章大意】本文教育人们如何交朋友, 以及在交朋友的时候所要采取的一些措施。

A. Friendship B. How to Make Friends

6. You cannot make friends if you_________. ?
A. take some action
B. go to the people
C. avoid meeting people
D. won’t start a conversation
【解析】选D。细节理解题。根据文章第三段We imagine other people are judging us or finding us too tall or too short, too this or too that. But don’t forget that they must be feeling the same way. Try to accept yourself as you are and try to put the other person at ease. You’ll both feel more comfortable可知, D项是错误的, 不经过交谈, 显然不能交友。故选D。
7. Friendship is based on_________. ?
A. self-confidence
B. meeting more unknown people
C. more talking and smiling to people
D. taking from and giving to people
【解析】选C。细节理解题。根据文章最后一句It takes time and effort to develop可知, 得到友谊需要时间和努力。故C正确。

Dear Jerry,
I am glad to hear from you. In your email, you asked me about the after-school activities in our school and here I would like to introduce you to something about it.
There are over 20 students’ clubs in our school. I am in the basketball and chess clubs. The activities not only build up my body and mind but also provide a perfect platform and rich choices for my future development. Besides, they also free me from the heavy work of study.
Here are my suggestions to the students on how to choose after-class activities: You’d better choose those which interest and suit you. What’s more, you have to balance your study and activities so as to achieve both.
You are warmly welcome to come and experience our after-school activities.
Best wishes!
Sincerely yours,
Li Hua
