To pass her Civics course(公民课程), she had to do some volunteer service in a nursing home for a week.One Monday, Emily went to the nursing home after school. When she arrived, she was told she would 　13　 an hour every weekday with an elderly lady, Mrs. Blair. She was then led into a room, where an old lady in a flowery dress was sitting on a sofa. Emily 　14　 awkwardly(别扭地) in front of the lady. She cleared her throat and said, “Good afternoon. I’m Emily.” “Good afternoon, Emily. Take a seat, please,” Mrs. Blair replied.Then, 　15　 filled the space between them. Emily wondered what to say. “Tell me about yourself, Emily,”Mrs. Blair said suddenly.“Well,”Emily started, “I don’t have any grandparents, so I can’t relate to elderly people much. I love the performing arts. I’m here mainly because I have to 　16　 here to get a good grade for my Civics class.” Mrs. Blair didn’t seem to mind. “Many people, especially teens, don’t seem to care about old people like me. Now you’re here, and I’m going to change that about you. Ask me anything.” Emily thought for a moment, and finally decided, “What was your job?”“I was a Broadway star in the 1950s,” Mrs. Blair answered.“Cool! Can you tell me about it?”Emily asked, amazed.Mrs. Blair smiled. “Back then, only the lead actress had the honor to wear a 　17　 bracelet. I was the lead in almost all of the plays, so I always wore the bracelet. Till this day, I still have it.” Emily smiled along with Mrs. Blair and listened to the other stories, attentively. She had become so interested in Mrs. Blair’s 　18　 that she decided to come earlier the next day. Tuesday, Wednesday, and Thursday passed by quickly. Then came Friday. As she was leaving, Emily was really 　19　 to say goodbye. “Don’t be sad. You can still visit me,”Mrs. Blair comforted her. She then handed a small box to Emily,“It’s my gift to you.”Emily 　20　opened the box and was surprised to see what was inside. “It’s the bracelet that you wore. Thank you!”Emily said, with tears in her eyes. “I’m sure to visit you whenever I’m free.” On her way home, Emily thought of her own love for the performing arts. She touched the bracelet and made a promise that she would keep her word to Mrs. Blair. 13. A. waste   B. spend   C. plan   D. exercise24. A. asked   B. sat   C. stood   D. danced25.

Now it was finally time to exchange presents.One by one, our teacher called out each name, and then he handed the presents. Soon, all kinds of gifts, from board games, candy and books to small toys had been almost opened.I stood off to one side with my best friends, Carrie and Megan. Carrie’s gift was a box of chocolates and Megan’s was a book of 365 stories. I tried to appear disinterested. But when the last brightly wrapped(包装的) present was gone, I began to get nervous.The teacher finally called out my name and handed me an old, sort of dirty small box.What an unusual package(包裹), I thought. Who would wrap something like this? “Who’s it from?” asked Carrie.I turned over the box and found, “To Betty from Sarah,” written in pencil. My heart dropped down to my feet when I saw it.Sarah’s family was poor and they moved here about two years ago. Sarah was nice but terribly shy. She had trouble with her schoolwork, especially reading. Sometimes our teacher asked me to help her.My mother had taught me that I should always be polite when receiving a gift. “Feelings are more important than things,” she always said. “There is nothing in the world worth hurting someone else’s feelings over.” So I was ready to act as if I had just been given the best present I had ever received.               “Maybe it’s an eraser,” said Carrie. “I think it’s just a card,” said Megan.                   But when I opened the box and reached my fingers in, I knew they were both wrong. I pulled out a hair pin. It was light yellow with a small pink flower on it. It was truly beautiful.That night, I received more than the gift Sarah gave me. I learned not to prejudge others, and that nice presents and kind hearts could come in unusual packages.24．The writer got the present from ________.A．Carrie B．Megan C．Betty D．Sarah25．What present did the writer receive?A．A card. B．A hair pin. C．A story book. D．A box of chocolates.26．What has the writer learned from her experience?A．Don’t judge a book by its cover.B．Don’t be rude to the poor people.C．Presents are important on festivals.D．Friendship is necessary for everyone.CGet Stressed, Stay YoungFor many years doctors have warned us about the dangers of stress and have given us advice about how to cut down our stress levels. Everyone agrees that long-term stress, for example having to look after someone who has a long-lasting illness, or stressful situations where there is nothing we can do, for example being stuck in a traffic jam, is bad for our health and should be avoided whenever possible. However, some medical experts now believe that certain kinds of stress may actually be good for us.Dr. Kyriazis, an anti-ageing expert, explains that what he calls “good stress” is beneficial to our health and may, in fact, help us stay young and attractive and even live longer. Dr. Kyriazis says that “good stress” can strengthen our natural defenses which protect us from illnesses common among older people, such as Alzheimers, arthritis, and heart problems. He believes that “good stress” can increase the production of the proteins (蛋白质) that help to repair the body’s cells, including brain cells.According to Dr. Kyriazis, running for a bus or having to work to a deadline are examples of “good stress”, that is, situations with short-term, low or middle level stress. The stress usually makes us react quickly and efficiently, and gives us a sense of achievement—we did it! However, in both these situations, the stress damages the cells in our body or brain and they start to break down. But then the cells own repair system “turns on” and it produces proteins which repair the damaged cells and remove harmful chemicals that can gradually cause disease. In fact, the body’s reaction is greater than what is needed to repair the damage, so it actually makes the cells stronger than they were before.“As the body gets older, this self-repair function of the cells starts to slow down,” says Dr. Kyriazis. “The best way to keep the process working efficiently is to ‘exercise’ it, in the same way you would exercise your muscles to keep them strong. This means having a certain amount of stress in our lives.” Other stressful activities that Kyriazis suggests as being “good stress” include redecorating a room in your house over a weekend, packing your suitcase in a hurry to reach the airport on time, shopping for a dinner party during your lunch break or programming your DVD player by following the instruction manual (说明书).So next time your boss tells you that she wants to see that report finished and on her desk in 45 minutes, don’t worry, just think of it as “good stress” which will have benefits for your long-term health!27．Which of the following is bad for your health?A．Having to work to a deadline sometimes.B．Having to face a difficult situation for a short time.C．Having to look after someone who has been ill for a long time.D．Having to redecorate your room in your house over just a weekend.28．Which of the following tells the main idea of Paragraph 2?A．“Good stress” stops us from getting ill.B．Young people suffer more from stress than older people.C．How Dr. Kyriazis becomes so famous an anti-ageing expert.D．Alzheimers is one of the illnesses many old people suffer from.29．What can we learn from the passage?A．Being in traffic jams is good for our health.B．Situations that produce bad stress are always short-term.C．People should avoid getting stressed as much as possible.D．Our bodies need some stress to exercise our self-repair system.DAlthough you can make choices and plans for life, no one can ever be prepared for the unexpected. When these unexpected situations add up, it’s easy to become overly worried and feel as if your life is out of control. This is why we often try to find control whenever we can.Feeling as if your life is out of control comes from the anxiety(焦虑) that you don’t know what you really want and what will happen to you. People have no idea when bad luck may visit and for how long, so it produces the feelings like sadness, disappointment, and anger. Some of the below steps may be useful when life starts to feel out of control.Pause(暂停)and Take a BreakIt is important to take a break every now and then. It is perfectly OK to take some time to yourself; think over, relax, and practice self-care.Take Control of Things You Can ChangeEven though people may not have control of everything in their lives, they do still have control of some things. Work on changing the things in life that you do have control over, like going to the gym a bit more, eating fewer sweets, or staying away from a bad person. Even if it is the littlest of things, it can help in establishing a sense of control and optimism (乐观主义)in your life.Be Confident in Your Life DecisionsSometimes life can feel out of control when you keep worrying and wondering if you are making the right choices in life. With the things you do have control over, perhaps you want to make sure you get it just right, almost perfect — but nothing will ever be perfect. Take pride in what you created for your life and, if you made a few bad decisions, learn from them and move forward. These mistakes may have helped develop personal growth and wisdom.Pick Up a HobbyHobbies are a great way to take your mind off of things you can’t change. Whether it be going for a daily walk, or writing down a few sentences in your diary, hobbies may help you to feel a bit of an escape(逃离)from life’s challenges.30．People feel their life is out of control when ________.A．they make choices and plans for life B．many unexpected things happenC．they are prepared for the unexpected D．they know what will happen to them31．The word “establishing” in Paragraph 4 probably means “________”.A．building B．wondering C．controlling D．writing32．Why does the writer talk about making bad decisions in Paragraph 5?A．To explain why mistakes help you grow.B．To make sure you will correct the mistakes.C．To show you that nothing will ever be perfect.D．To tell us to learn from our mistakes and keep on.33．Which of the following would be the best title for the passage?A．Why is Your Life Out of ControlB．Make the Right Choices in Your LifeC．Take Control of Everything in Your LifeD．What to Do When Life Feels Out of Control第二部分本部分共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。The Sport of ConcentrationEvery day, it seems, a new gadget (设备) promises to help me increase the distance and pace I run, or the number of hours I sleep, or the rate of my heartbeats. It will make me a “better me,” or so the story goes.Maybe some of them actually help to do these things, but nonetheless, I still decided to sell all of my sports gadgets a few months ago and simply record my running times with a pen and a notepad. Soon after, I began to train for a marathon the old-fashioned way, without something on my wrist telling me my pace and current heart rate. As it turned out, running without knowing all that information was a great pleasure.In the past, whenever I was running slower than my smartwatch said I should be, I’d force myself to speed up, even if it was clear that my body didn’t want to. But this time, I ran the way I wanted to.On more than a few occasions, when I’d look at my notepad following key workouts (锻炼), I was shocked to see that I’d had some real breakthroughs (突破), running much faster than I thought I could. I was so shocked about these numbers and thought that if I’d seen them during the workout itself, I would have probably slowed down. Yet, because I was blind to them, I just kept on running.Another positive thing about getting rid of all my running gadgets is that it’s helping me concentrate (集中注意力) more on the running itself. Since I no longer feel like I need technology to run well, I can go out and run without worrying about whether everything has enough battery power.So, what’s the lesson here? Well, we could very easily replace the example of running with writing, studying, or anything else. No matter what it is the more time we spend worrying about how to make ourselves better at something, the more our performance is affected.Should you stop using technology to “improve” your performance? Of course, that’s up to you. However, if I were to be asked that question, I’d certainly say that I’m better off without it.34．When did the writer decide to sell all of the sports gadgets?________________35．Why was the writer shocked?________________36．What’s another positive thing without any running gadgets?________________37．What does the writer learn from the example of running?________________38．What do you think of sports gadgets? Why do you think so?________________五、文段表达（10分）39．健康的身体离不开良好的生活习惯，饮食、卫生、运动、睡眠等方面的习惯都跟我们的健康息息相关。假如你是李华，你校英语社团正在开展健康生活习惯交流活动，作为社团一员，请你用英语写一篇发言稿，谈谈你对健康生活习惯的看法、日常生活中你有哪些良好的生活习惯以及建议。提示词语：important, eat, wash, exercise, sleep提示问题：·What do you think of good health habits?·What good health habits do you have?·What are your suggestions?Good morning, everyone.

Good health habits are very important for our life. Good health can help us study better. I have many health habits. First of all, I form good eating habits. I eat more vegetables and fruit. I don’t have too much meat or sugar. Second, it’s important for us to have enough sleep. So I plan my time carefully so that I can go to bed early and get up early. Last but not the least, I often do some exercise in the morning, like running for an hour. I think it is good for my health.So I think everyone should form good habits to keep healthy and get rid of bad habits. The healthier we become, the happier we will feel.Thank you!
