Ⅱ.阅读理解
A
On her first day teaching students from poor families at an after?school program in New York City, Alyssa Kapasi noticed how many kids were lining up for free sandwiches and fruit in the school cafeteria. One of the workers explained that many of these students don't get enough to eat at home, so a school lunch or an after?school meal might be the most food they would get all day.
Kapasi, who attends private school, was very surprised. What's more, she made up her mind to help. “I want other kids to understand that if you see a problem, you don't have to wait to grow up to fix it，” says Kapasi. She and a group of friends are now putting their programming skills to work to create an app called Food for Thought, which will allow parents, students, and even kind?hearted strangers to donate to a lunch account for a student in need at a nearby school.
About 20 million American kids receive free lunches. Two million more can have low?price meals, and those students' families have to pay for part of their food. When they don't have the money on any given day, the students might have to settle_for an “alternative (可替代的) meal” such as a cheese sandwich.
The app — which is getting financial (财政的) support from a GoFundMe page — provides anonymity (匿名) to those who receive lunch and donors. To receive help, a family will need only a recommendation (推荐) from a school teacher, and no one else has to know.
“I want to make an app that all users feel no shame in using，” says Kapasi. She hopes to test the app in a school district this fall.
【语篇解读】 本文是记叙文。文章介绍了美国纽约市一名叫Alyssa Kapasi的女孩设计了一款应用程序来解决贫困家庭学生的饥饿问题。
1．Why does Kapasi want to create an app?
A．To teach kids how to help others.
B．To practise her programming skills.
C．To introduce her school to the public.
D．To solve the problem of hunger in schools.
答案与解析：D 推理判断题。第一段介绍了Kapasi设计应用程序的缘由——她看到许多在学校餐厅排队领取免费食物的孩子并了解到很多孩子在家吃不饱；再由第二段中的“she made up her mind to help...to work to create an app called Food for Thought”可知，她致力于解决贫困家庭学生的饥饿问题。
2．What does the underlined phrase “settle for” in Paragraph 3 probably mean?
A．Buy. B．Make.
C．Accept. D．Offer.
答案与解析：C 词义猜测题。由前文中的“About 20 million American kids receive free lunches. Two million more can have low?price meals”可知，本段介绍了美国孩子享受免费或者低价午餐的情况。对于那些没有钱支付低价午餐的孩子，他们可以得到诸如奶酪三明治之类的食物来替代午餐。
3．What should a family do if they want to get help from Food for Thought?
A．Visit a GoFundMe page.
B．Get in touch with Kapasi.
C．Be recommended by teachers.
D．Donate something else instead.
答案与解析：C 细节理解题。由倒数第二段中的“To receive help, a family will need only a recommendation from a school teacher”可知，想要获得Food for Thought帮助的家庭，只需被学校老师推荐即可。
4．What can we infer about the users of Kapasi's app?
A．They won't lose face in using it.
B．They will make money by using it.
C．They will know who offers them help.
D．They won't meet their donors until this fall.
答案与解析：A 推理判断题。由倒数第二段中的“The app...provides anonymity to those who receive lunch and donors”和最后一段中的“I want to make an app that all users feel no shame in using”可知，该应用软件提供匿名服务，这样不会让使用者丢面子。
B
Casey did not mean to text the name of a dead relative of hers to a friend. In fact, she wasn't even awake when it happened.
No, this isn't the beginning of a ghost (鬼) story and Casey, 31, wasn't mad. She was sleeptexting, and she's not alone, according to researchers. There are a growing number of sleeptexters who send text messages while asleep. They are usually teens and young people.
Dr Michael Gelb, who is studying why people sleeptext at New York University, says that stress (压力) level, quality of sleep, or something else all might result in sending a sleeptext.
Alex Thielen, 22, is one of many sleeptexters who regret sending private messages to wrong people. She reports what happened before she sleeptexted one night.
“It happened about one month into starting my first full?time job, so you could say I was very stressed out. I was still getting used to my sleep schedule because I wasn't used to getting up early every day for work. That night, I was very stressed out and had friends over to give me advice，” she says. “So, I was really worried when I sleeptexted.”
For most sleeptexters, treatment is a matter of lifestyle choices. Gelb suggests shutting down all electronic devices (设备) at least 30 minutes before bed. And it also helps if you don't fall asleep with your phone close by, he says. That's easier said than done, however, for most young sleeptexters. “The phone is influencing young people. They grew up with texting and with Facebook and they're checking their phones every two minutes during the day，” Gelb explains. “It's a part of their lives.”
The friend Casey mistakenly texted happens to be a doctor. She also suggested the treatment for Casey. “The person I texted did advise me to maybe not keep my phone that close when I slept, for fear that a more harmful sleeptext might be sent，” Casey explains.
【语篇解读】 本文是说明文。文章介绍了越来越常见的睡觉发信息的现象，这在年轻一代中最容易出现。
5．What can we learn about the message that Casey sent?
A．It was the beginning of a ghost story.
B．It was received by her relative.
C．It was sent in her sleep.
D．It was about sleeptexting.
答案与解析：C 细节理解题。由第一段中的“she wasn't even awake when it happened”可知，那条信息是Casey睡着的时候发的。
6．What may be the cause of Alex's sleeptexting?
A．Deep sadness. B．Wrong medicine.
C．Health problems. D．Too much worry.
答案与解析：D 推理判断题。由第五段Alex描述她误发短信的经过“starting my first full?time job... I was very stressed out... really worried when I sleeptexted”可知，压力大使她非常焦虑，因而睡觉时发了短信。
7．What can we infer from Gelb's words in Paragraph 6?
A．The phone encourages young people's growth.
B．The phone changes the way young people think.
C．It's difficult for young people to get into bed early.
D．It's hard for sleeptexters to stay away from the phone.
答案与解析：D 推理判断题。倒数第二段提及了Gelb提出的解决睡觉发短信的治疗办法——至少在睡觉前三十分钟关闭一切电子设备或者睡觉时离手机远点。但由Gelb的进一步解释“They grew up with texting and with Facebook and they're checking their phones every two minutes during the day”可知，他认为让那些睡觉时发信息的人离手机远点说起来容易做起来难，因为手机已成为了他们生活的一部分。
8．What might be Gelb's attitude to that doctor's advice?
A．He supports it.
B．He disagrees with it.
C．He is uninterested in it.
D．He is doubtful about it.
答案与解析：A 推理判断题。结合倒数第二段Gelb给出针对睡觉发短信的治疗办法“it also helps if you don't fall asleep with your phone close by”和最后一段中医生朋友给Casey的建议“maybe not keep my phone that close when I slept”可知，Gelb应该会支持那位医生的建议。

Smartphones, tablets and smart watches are banned(禁止) at school for all children under 15 in France. Under the ban students are not able to use their phones at all during school hours, including meal breaks.
“I think it's a good thing. School is not about being on your phone，” Paris mum Marie Caroline Madeleine told AFP. “It's hard with kids. You can't control what they see and that's one of the things that worries me as a parent.”
There is no law like this in Australia, but some Australian schools have banned phones.
McKinnon Secondary School in Victoria introduced a total ban in February and Principal Pitsa Binnion said this has been a success.
McKinnon students still have a Chromebook to use in every class for day?to?day learning but they're not allowed to use social media (媒体). Ms Binnion said at first “teachers cheered and students moaned (抱怨)，” but now they're seeing the positives (优势). “They come to school and they're not allowed to use phones at all during the school day, including lunch breaks，” she said.
“It's been wonderful in terms of students communicating with each other at lunchtime and not looking at their screen，” she said.
Ms Binnion also leads by example and doesn't use her mobile phone in school. “I think anyone can do it if we've done it.”
Not everyone agrees with the bans. Western Sydney University technology researcher Dr. Joanne Orlando wrote in online magazine The Conversation earlier this year that Australia should not ban phones in schools because it's important to educate kids to live in the age they are raised in.
“A good education for students today is knowing how to use technology to learn, communicate and work with ideas，” she wrote. “Banning students from using smartphones is a 1950s response to a 2018 state?of?play.”
【语篇解读】 本文是篇议论文。文章讨论了澳大利亚学校是否该禁止学生使用手机。
1．Why did Madeleine welcome the ban?
A．School is for studying.
B．Kids behave badly nowadays.
C．Teachers find it hard to control kids.
D．Her kids depend too much on phones.
答案与解析：A 推理判断题。由第二段中的“School is not about being on your phone.”可知， Madeleine认为学校不是玩手机的地方，言外之意就是学校是学习的地方。
2．What can we learn about the ban in McKinnon Secondary School?
A．Some teachers were against it at first.
B．Students can now see the good of the ban.
C．Students can use their phones at lunch breaks.
D．Teachers have stopped using phones at school as well.
答案与解析：B 推理判断题。由第四段中的“this has been a success”和第五段中的“now they're seeing the positives”可知，学生们起初抱怨，但现在都看到了这一禁令的好处。
3．What does the underlined word “Chromebook” in Paragraph 5 probably refer to?
A．A book. B．A notebook.
C．A learning website. D．A kind of computer.
答案与解析：D 词义猜测题。由第一段中的“Smartphones, tablets and smart watches”和第五段中的“for day?to?day learning but they're not allowed to use social media(媒体)”可知，画线词应该指的是一种电脑。学生们学习可以用，但是不允许使用社交网络。
4．What does Dr. Joanne Orlando think of banning phones in schools?
A．It will disconnect parents and kids.
B．It will cause kids to communicate less.
C．It will prevent kids being tech?minded.
D．It will make education go back 60 years.
答案与解析：C 推理判断题。由倒数第一、二段可知， Dr. Joanne Orlando认为现在是科技时代，就应该让学生与时代接轨，禁止学生使用手机不符合这个时代的特征。
B
Keeping kids busy with various activities provides them with a well?rounded social life. Growing up, I knew many teenagers who were actively involved in both sports and student government. Those teenagers all ended up going to college and graduating. This may not be the situation in all cases, but from what I have noticed, teens who stay active and do good in the community are typically the ones who deal with anxiety and depression (抑郁) better.
A 2015 study published by professor of biology Theodore Garland concluded, “If kids exercise regularly through the school years, they may be more likely to exercise as adults, which could have far?reaching positive effects on human health and well?being. Our results suggest that any positive effects of early?life exercise on adult exercise tendencies will require reinforcement (强化) and maintenance if they are to be long?lasting.” This study found that along with physical activity, having a spirit of adventure would also help improve children's physical and mental health.
Some parents disagree. They feel that pushing a child to stay active and involved causes unnecessary stress and can have the opposite effect, making him/her hate being involved or being active. Parents also fear their children will experience failure, which they believe could lead to low self?confidence.
The key to helping the youth stay motivated is not pressuring them too hard. People who have strict parents typically rebel (反抗) or feel they will never be good enough. Keep in mind that encouraging the youth to be competitive isn't the best thing. Some of the unhappiest people I have met are competitive. Positive reinforcement is the best way to keep people motivated.
An active and involved youth will show personal qualities that will become useful in the future. Some of these include leadership, teamwork, a healthy lifestyle, educational benefits, respect and trust, which will lead to success in the future.
【语篇解读】 本文是一篇议论文。让孩子在兼顾学业之余多参加活动，对于孩子成年后的发展是有积极影响的。
5．According to the author, active teens ________.
A．get much better education
B．concentrate more on self?improvement
C．do well in both sports and management
D．deal with some mental problems better than others
答案与解析：D 细节理解题。根据第一段的“teens who stay active and do good in the community are typically the ones who deal with anxiety and depression better”可知，积极参加活动的孩子能更好地应对焦虑和抑郁。
6．The study in 2015 implies that ________.
A．the positive effect of early?life exercise is not necessarily lasting
B．physical activity helps children become more confident
C．early?life exercise has positive effects on relationships
D．school life experience has a long?lasting influence
答案与解析：A 推理判断题。根据第二段的“Our results suggest that any positive effects of early?life exercise on adult exercise tendencies will require reinforcement and maintenance if they are to be long?lasting.”可知，早期的活动锻炼对于成年后的发展有积极影响，但前提是这些锻炼需要加强和维持。
7．Why are some parents against teens' being active?
A．They believe it may take a lot of time.
B．They think it is unnecessary to push kids.
C．They are worried about the opposite effect.
D．They are afraid it makes their children feel depressed.
答案与解析：C 细节理解题。根据第三段的“They feel that pushing a child to stay active and involved causes unnecessary stress and can have the opposite effect, making him/her hate being involved or being active.”可知，他们担心这样做会达到相反的效果。
8．What is Paragraph 4 mainly about?
A．The importance of trusting the youth.
B．The key to keeping the youth motivated.
C．The possible problem faced by the youth.
D．The reasons for helping the youth stay positive.
答案与解析：B 主旨大意题。根据本段内容可知，本段讲的是使年轻人保持积极性的关键所在。

Ⅱ.阅读理解

The sun was setting and the farm would be closing soon. I dressed our three daughters quickly as my husband started the car. Cutting down our own Christmas tree had been a family tradition.
As we walked through the rows of trees, my youngest daughter Kimberly shouted excitedly, “There it is, the perfect tree ! ” The other two agreed.My husband and I looked at each other puzzled (困惑的). It was misshapen and pine needles (松针) were missing here and there.
We tried to talk our daughters into changing their minds, but failed.We had to tie the tree to the top of our car and headed home.As we reached our house, Heather jumped out first.Suddenly she shouted, “The tree isn't there！” We thought she was kidding.However, it wasn't there.
The girls were so sad. “We'll get another tree tomorrow, ” I said, secretly hoping the new tree would be prettier.But the girls gave us the look that no parent can say no to.We had no choice but to go back and find that tree.
About five minutes into our drive, we saw our tree on the side of the road.Clearly it had been run over by a truck and a big part of it had fallen off, but we took our little broken tree home anyway.
Once at home, we all agreed that the flat broken side would go up against the wall. That night, as we decorated our tree, something magical happened.By the time we were done, I had to admit (承认), it didn't look sad after all. “This is the best tree we ever had. It's perfect！” my second daughter Samantha said excitedly. My husband and I couldn't have agreed more !
Now we always recall that little broken tree ! Year by year, we tell the story of that very special Christmas almost twenty?five years ago.
