I had a great time with the film Turning Red, which fllws Meilin, a thirteen-year-ld girl wh suddenly begins turning int a giant red panda.
The film was set in 2002 when I wuld’ve been arund Meilin’s age. It was a jy fr me t watch a film that I culd relate t. The film illustrates the push-pull that many immigrant families face: hw much f their culture t keep and hw much t assimilate (融入). There are beautiful traces f Chinese culture thrughut this film, including grgeus fd, time arund the table, relatinships with extended family, and mre.
In the film, wmen in Meilin’s family suffer a curse (诅咒). As sn as they begin t blssm int wmanhd, they transfrm int a giant red panda whenever they express any strng emtin. Thus, they have learned that emtinal repressin is the way t g. It was beautiful t watch this yung girl chse the different path f emtinal wellness instead f hlding back her feelings.
It’s nt a surprise that the directr Dmee Shi, wh is arund my age, chse this pltline. Many peple my age are n that similar path Meilin finds herself n. We hnr ur parents and what they have dne fr us, but we’re als chsing t be mre emtinally healthy and trying t live differently than we were taught.
The part f Turning Red I particularly lved is the ending. Thugh Meilin’s mm, grandma, and aunts see that it’s pssible t integrate their red pandas int their lives, they dn’t chse that path. Instead, they chse t bttle their pandas up nce again. Hwever, they d get a new perspective n this yung, grundbreaking girl. It’s such a sweet reminder that nt everyne can g n the same jurney tward emtinal health, and that’s kay.
If all f them had embraced their pandas, I think the ending wuld’ve felt incredibly cheese and taken away sme f the pwer f the stry. S we get a cnclusin that is satisfying and heart-warming withut being t much f a fairy tale.
24. Why did the authr enjy watching Turning Red?
A. She fund a cnnectin with the stry.
B. She fllwed a life path similar t its directr.
C. She adred the appealing design f the red panda.
D. She valued its emphasis n the beautiful Chinese culture.
25. What des the underlined wrd “repressin” in the third paragraph mean?
A. Disturbance.B. Cntrl.C. Wellness.D. Expressin.
26. What des the authr think f the ending f the film?
A. Bittersweet.B. Idealized.C. Realistic.D. Cheesy.
27. What is the central dilemma faced by Meilin in Turning Red?
A. “Can I embrace my true self?”B. “Shuld I priritize my family?”
C. “Can I uncver the curse’s secret?”D. “Shuld I explre diverse cultures?”
C
I’m in a cffee shp in Manhattan and I’m abut t becme the mst disliked persn in the rm. First, I’m ging t interrupt the man reading quietly near the windw and ask fr a drink f his latte. Next, I’m ging t ask the line f peple waiting t pay if I can cut t the frnt f the queue. This is hw I chse t spend my last vacatin. Here’s why.
Grwing up, all I ever heard abut was “EQ.” It was the mid-1990s, and psychlgist Daniel Gleman had just ppularized the cncept f emtinal intelligence. Unlike IQ, which tracked cnventinal measures f intelligence like reasning and recall, EQ measured the ability t understand ther peple — t listen, t empathize (共情), and t appreciate.
My mther, an elementary schl principal, prized brains and hard wrk, but she placed a special emphasis n Gleman’s new idea. T her, EQ was the elixir (万能药) that separated the gd students frm the great after they left schl. She was determined t send me int the adult wrld with as much f this elixir as pssible.
But when I finally began my first jb, I nticed a secnd elixir in the pckets f sme f my clleagues. It gave their pinins extra weight and their decisins added impact. Strangest f all, it seemed like the anti-EQ: Instead f knwing hw t make thers feel gd, this elixir gave peple the curage t d the ppsite — t say things thers didn’t want t hear.
This was assertiveness (魄力). It biled dwn t the cmmand f a single skill: the ability t have uncmfrtable cnversatins. Assertive peple — thse with high “AQ”— ask fr things they want, decline things they dn’t, prvide cnstructive feedback, and engage in direct cnfrntatin (对峙) and debate.
A lifetime imprving my EQ helped me empathize with thers, but it als left me verly sensitive t situatins where I had t say r d things that might make thers unhappy. While I didn’t avid cnflict, I was always frustrated by my pwerlessness when I had t say r d smething that culd upset smene. This is my prblem and I’m wrking n it.
28. Why did the authr act that way in the cffee shp?
A. T imprve a skill.B. T test a cncept.
C. T advcate a new idea.D. T have a unique vacatin.
29. What d we knw abut the authr’s mther?
A. She thught little f IQ.B. She ppularized Gleman’s idea.
C. She was a strict mther and principal.D. She valued EQ as the key t greatness.
30. What des the wrd “it” underlined in the furth paragraph refer t?
A. EQ.B. AQ.C. Empathy.D. Curage.
31. Accrding t the passage, thse with high EQ but lw AQ are likely t be ______.
A. successful leadersB. peple pleasersC. terrible cmplainersD. pleasure seekers
D
Califrnia has lst half its big trees since the 1930s, accrding t a study t be published Tuesday and climate change seems t be a majr factr (因素).
The number f trees larger than tw feet acrss has declined by 50 percent n mre than 46, 000 square miles f Califrnia frests, the new study finds. N area was spared r unaffected, frm the fggy nrthern cast t the Sierra Nevada Muntains t the San Gabriels abve Ls Angeles. In the Sierra high cuntry, the number f big trees has fallen by mre than 55 percent; in parts f suthern Califrnia the decline was nearly 75 percent.
Many factrs cntributed t the decline, said Patrick McIntyre, an eclgist wh was the lead authr f the study. Wdcutters targeted big trees. Husing develpment pushed int the wds. Aggressive wildfire cntrl has left Califrnia frests crwded with small trees that cmpete with big trees fr resurces (资源).
But in cmparing a study f Califrnia frests dne in the 1920s and 1930s with anther ne between 2001 and 2010, McIntyre and his clleagues dcumented a widespread death f big trees that was evident even in wildlands prtected frm wdcutting r develpment.
The lss f big trees was greatest in areas where trees had suffered the greatest water shrtage. The researchers figured ut water stress with a cmputer mdel that calculated hw much water trees were getting in cmparisn with hw much they needed, taking int accunt such things as rainfall, air temperature, dampness f sil, and the timing f snwmelt (融雪).
Since the 1930s, McIntyre said, the biggest factrs driving up water stress in the state have been rising temperatures, which cause trees t lse mre water t the air, and earlier snwmelt, which reduces the water supply available t trees during the dry seasn.
32. What is the secnd paragraph mainly abut?
A. The seriusness f big-tree lss in Califrnia.
B. The increasing variety f Califrnia big trees.
C. The distributin f big trees in Califrnia frests.
D. The influence f farming n big trees in Califrnia.
33. Which f the fllwing is well-intentined but may be bad fr big trees?
A. Eclgical studies f frests.B. Banning wdcutting.
C. Limiting husing develpment.D. Fire cntrl measures.
34. What is a majr cause f the water shrtage accrding t McIntyre?
A. Inadequate snwmelt.B. A lnger dry seasn.
C. A warmer climate.D. Dampness f the air.
35. What can be a suitable title fr the text?
A. Califrnia’s Frests: Where Have All the Big Trees Gne?
B. Cutting f Big Trees t Be Prhibited in Califrnia Sn
C. Why Are the Big Trees Imprtant t Califrnia Frests?
D. Patrick McIntyre: Grw Mre Big Trees in Califrnia

阅读下面材料，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。
I lved the spelling bee (拼字比赛). I trained every day after schl, the dictinary pages rippling sftly in the breeze. But I had never thught my arch-enemy in the spelling bee culd becme my friend.
Opening my eyes n Friday mrning, I felt the hairs n my arm stand up. I glanced at my alarm clck — it’s nly 6:27. I usually wke up at 7:01, which meant I had an extra thirty-fur minutes t study. I was the best spellers in my class. I wanted t win the bee at Meadwbrk Middle Schl and beat my arch-enemy, Nathan Frtescue.
Nathan just read many science and math bks. Really, he wasn’t a speller at heart — he’s a mathematician. Nathan and I had nthing in cmmn except being gd spellers, but since he’s a gd speller withut even trying, it didn’t cunt.
I walked int the kitchen, finding Dad cking breakfast. He served me sme prridge. I thanked him and tld him the spelling test and my anxiety. My father gave me a quiz. Thse wrds “dexterus, sesquipedalian, truncate” didn’t truble me at all. Finally came the wrd “judgment”. “Easy, J-U-D-G-E-M-E-N-T.” I answered quickly, withut any thught.
Dad shk his head. Nt believing in him, I headed fr my rm, referred t the dictinary and marched back with a frwn. Befre parting, he tld me that I shuld thank him, because I wuld prbably get the wrd in the test.
As sn as I shut the classrm dr behind me, I heard a vice frm the back f the rm. “Yu are lking pale nw, and I’m afraid that yu may miss the spelling bee.” Nathan smiled as he clsed a giant bk with dancing numbers n the cver.
“I bet a literature wrd will make yu ut n the first rund.” I replied.
As Ms. Hawking walked int the rm, she explained the rules—ne missed, and yu were ut—and the spelling test began. After fur runds, nly Nathan and I were left. “Olivia, yur wrd is ‘algrithm.’” said Ms. Hawking. I hadn’t heard that wrd befre, but I spelt it A-L-G-O-R-H-Y-H-M.
注意：
1. 续写词数应为150左右；
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
Ms. Hawking frwned and said that’s incrrect. __________________________________________________
