Image（形象）Isn't Everything

Before I went to high school, I was eager to start my new life. I wanted to get into the 13 of popular students at school, so I bought a new outfit（套装）to present a good image for myself.

On the first day of school, I didn't know where to have my first class. I was standing in the hall, looking 14, when a short girl wearing glasses came up and asked, "Hi, my name is Judy. Are you new? Do you want me to help you find your class?" Although she seemed not the kind of girl I wanted to make friends with, I told her my name and followed her, making 15 conversation the whole way.

When we reached my classroom, she said, "It was nice meeting you. I hope your day goes all right. "I said thanks and waved good-bye.

In the classroom, I saw a big group of students around a girl wearing blue jeans with holes. She was talking about her adventures in summer. I thought this girl was popular. When the teacher came and told us to break up, I 16 to get a seat next to her, and said, "Hi, my name is April and I'm new here. 'She said, "Hi, I'm Ella. "

Once the class was over, I turned to her and asked, "My next class is physics. Could you help me find it?" She said"No"17 and walked to her friends. I heard her say, "Did you see that new girl trying to get into our group? Her outfit is so strange" They all looked at me and laughed.

The same type of thing happened in other classes. When I was ready to go home, someone came up and said, "Hi, again. How was your first day?" It was Judy. I told her my day was not good. She said she was sorry and 18 to walk me outside.

Walking with Judy made me realize how 19 it was to try to only make friends with popular people, and how nice it would be to have a friend like her.

As time went on, I made friends with lots of different people, but my 20 was different. I decide whether a person is worth being my friend or not by who he or she is, not how popular he or she is.

13. A. class   B. band   C. group   D. club

14. A. confused  B. tired   C. surprised  D. bored

15. A. serious   B. interesting  C. private   D. polite

16. A. waited   B. managed  C. refused  D. promised

17. A. immediately  B. bravely  C. weakly  D. regretfully

18. A. agreed   B. failed   C. offered  D. forgot

19. A. careless   B. silly   C. different  D. dangerous

20. A. standard  B. suggestion  C. purpose  D. manner

A Dance Competition

Jenny is a seventh grader. She is very good at dancing. Last year entered the school's dance competition and won the first place. Her whole was there to support her. This year, the school held another dance compete but there was a change—the competition had to be done in pairs.

Jenny's class expected her to win the competition again this year, but Jenny was unsure of it because she had never danced with a partner before. She asked some boys in her class to enter with her, but they all said no because they did not know how to dance.

She finally turned to one of her friends, Carl. Carl refused at first because he couldn't dance either. Jenny insisted. Finally he agreed to join the competition. Jenny was very happy.

The competition was in two months. Jenny made a good plan to increase their chance of winning. On the first few days, Jenny chose a piece of music, and planned out their dance routine（整套动作）. Then they spent two weeks memorizing their steps. It was very difficult for Carl at first, but finally he got the hang of it. They spent the rest of the time perfecting their moves.

The day of the competition arrived. They were going up against nine other pairs, and they were to perform last. The pairs this year were better dancers compared to last year's competition. Jenny got nervous. Carl noticed this and told her, "It'll be okay,

Jenny. You are great, and I'm sure we'll win. "Jenny felt better after hearing Carl's words. Soon, it was their turn to perform. They were off to a great start. People began cheering them on.

After their performance, the judges counted up the scores. Jenny and Carl won! Their hard work finally paid off. They were presented with a trophy（奖杯）, and they were very happy.

24. How did Jenny feel about winning this year's competition at first?

A. Excited.   B. Unsure.    C. Uninterested.   D. Hopeful.

25. What did Jenny and Carl spend two weeks doing?

A. Choosing music to dance to.    B. Perfecting their moves.

C. Planning out their dance routine.   D. Memorizing their steps.

26. Why could Jenny and Carl win the competition?

A. They were both great dancers.    B. The other pairs gave poor performance.

C. They made a great effort to prepare for it. D. Jenny had much experience of dancing in pairs.

When you're having a hard time with something, it's natural to turn to others for help. Getting help sounds simple, but it's not always easy to do. Sometimes certain beliefs or ways of thinking can make it hard to ask for help Here are some kinds of attitudes that can stand in the way and ideas on how to get past them.

Some people believe that needing help is a sign of weakness. Actually, it's a sign of strength, not weakness. You know what you need and you shouldn't be afraid to reach out for it. Once a boy told me he wanted to ask his coach how to improve his basketball skills, but he was afraid that his coach might think he shouldn't be on the team. In fact, when he asked his coach for help, his coach thought he was practicing hard.

Some other people think they don't deserve（应该得到）help or support. Everyone needs help now and then. Accepting help can strengthen friendships and relationships. Everyone feels good when they can support a friend. For example, if you want to find out how Katy solves problems with her parents, you should ask Katy if she has time to talk and tell her how important her viewpoint is, instead of worrying that Katy is too busy to help you. When you ask for help, choose someone who listens and cares, not someone who judges or criticizes you. If you get refused, it's not because of you, but the other person. So tell yourself: If Katy says no, she might not be ready to talk about her own experiences.

Another wrong attitude is waiting for someone else to make the first move. It's not always easy for other people to see when you need help. Maybe you're putting on a cheerful face to hide the problem. Don't wait for someone to read your mind. You have to ask.

Because it can be hard to reach out for help, don't hesitate（犹豫）to offer support to another person if you think he or she needs it. Giving and receiving help are great life skills to learn. They help us improve our abilities to understand other people.

27. In Paragraph 2, the boy was afraid to ask his coach for help because ______________.

A. his coach criticized him before

B. his coach was too busy to help him

C. he wasn't practicing as hard as other players

D. he thought it would show he was a weak player

28. What should you do if you need help?

A. Be supportive to other people first.

B. Be active to find a caring person to talk to.

C. Try to make your friends notice what you need.

D. Put on a happy face to avoid worrying other people.

29. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?

A. Asking for Help: Everyone's Natural Ability

B. Asking for Help: Getting Past Improper Attitudes

C. Giving and Receiving Help: Great Skills to Learn

D. Giving and Receiving Help: Strengthening Relationships

D

I you're working to become better or hoping to make a change, you'll probably hear your family and friends say "go big or go home". But sometimes big goals can shoot you in the foot. So, is it good to set high expectations?

Having high expectations could be beneficial. It can motivate（激励）you and increase your productivity. When you have high expectations for something, you'll probably behave in ways which can help make your expectations come true. For example, if you believe that you're able to score an A in a test, you will probably spend a lot of time working on it. And when you have to complete a written task before the deadline, having expectations on yourself can motivate you to keep on going. Another benefit of setting high expectations is that as you start meeting your expectations, you'll be even more motivated to set higher goals for yourself. In addition, having high expectations on yourself doesn't only benefit you. You're likely to encourage others to be more productive! While there's plenty of good that comes from setting high expectations, going overboard and being unrealistic in expectations can be detrimental.

Having high expectations sometimes can cause psychological（心理的）problems, such as worry and unhappiness. The findings of a study showed that a group of students who were expected to do perfectly by their parents experienced serious stress and anxiety（焦虑）. Great expectations can also lead to great disappointment. This is especially true when you set expectations on other people whose actions you cannot control. For example, if you're feeling alone and you call up your friends, you surely expect them to make you feel better. When this fails to happen, you will feel disappointed and displeased with your friends. To avoid this situation, you should accept your friends for who they are and set your expectations around reality.

It is hard to manage expectations, but the main goal is to find the perfect balance in setting a more realistic and achievable expectation. Learn to let go of things, especially when they don't turn out the way you hoped. Most importantly, don't be afraid to celebrate your victories no matter how small they are.

30. If you have a high expectation on yourself, you will probably _____________.

A. discourage others      B. work hard to realize it

C. be more confident than before    D. have high expectations on others

31. The word "detrimental" in Paragraph 3 probably means " ________________ ".

A. harmful    B. unusual   C. disappointing   D. impossible

32. The writer probably agrees that _____________________.

A. it's wise to ask your friends to help you set expectations

B. stress is very likely to help you achieve your expectations

C. parents should avoid setting expectations on their children

D. we should set expectations on others according to the reality

33. What is the writer's main purpose in writing this passage?

A. To offer advice on how to realize expectations.

B. To explain why people like to set high expectations.

C. To lead people to take a right attitude towards expectations.

D. To encourage people to set high expectations for themselves.

本部分共6题, 共 20 分。根据题目要求, 完成相应任务。

四、阅读表达（每题 2分, 共10分）

阅读短文, 根据短文内容回答问题。

Ludwig van Beethoven, one of the world's most-loved composers, is famous for his nine symphonies（交响乐）. Before he died in 1827, he began a new symphony, but never finished it. He only left behind some notes about the piece and a few "sketches"—short bits of written music.

In 2019, a special team of musicians, computer scientists, and historians was formed. Their goal was to complete Beethoven's 10th Symphony to celebrate his 250th birthday. The team didn't just want to complete the symphony, they wanted to come as close as possible to producing the symphony that Beethoven meant to rite.

The team decided to use artificial intelligence（AI人工智能）to help finish 1e symphony. To train an AI, they turned every piece of Beethoven s music (to a form the computer could understand. By doing this, the AI could look for patterns（模式）in the way Beethoven wrote. They also studied Beethoven's notes and sketches to work out where in the symphony he planned to use each little bit of music.

In an early test, the team took a few minutes of music created by the AI seed on Beethoven's sketches, and played it for Beethoven experts, musicians d reporters. No one could tell which parts had been written by Beethoven and rich parts were made up by the AI

Finally, the AI had the challenge of trying to connect the little musical bits o a symphony. It took over two years, but the team was able to complete Beethoven 's 10th Symphony—not simply a melody（乐曲）, but 40 minutes of music for a full orchestra（管弦乐队）. On the night of October 9th, 2021, the piece was performed for the first time ever by the Beethoven Orchestra in Bonn, Germany.

So Beethoven now has a 10th Symphony. And though Beethoven didn't write it all, the team feels sure that the music is very much like what he might e written, if he'd had the chance.

34. What was the team's goal?

35. What did the team do to train an AI?

36. What was the result of the team's early test?

37. How long did it take the team to complete the 10th Symphony?

38. What do you think of the team's work? Why do you think so?

Good habits benefit a person's whole life. One of my good habits is taking notes in class. I take down what my teachers write on the blackboard and other important points about my lessons. I keep my notes well-organized and tidy so that I can find information easily later. Before I do my homework and take exams, I review my notes carefully.

The habit of taking notes helps me become a successful student. It not only improves my learning abilities, but also helps me get good grades.
