Since graduating from middle school, this year's new 9th-grade class is adapting to(适应)the challenges of high school, a difficult process(过程)for many students. Some of the challenges the students must get used to are the increasing difficulty of schoolwork, the amount of homework, and the change in the grading system amongst other things.

"It`s a bit harder than middle school, but that is to be expected from every ongoing year," David palacios, 9th-grade student, said.

Adaptation is also influenced by stories the freshmen hear before entering. These stories create a negative(消极的)idea of high school, as they are usually bad stories about classes, teachers, or other topics.

"Stories I've heard of high school are exaggerated(夸张的)," Palacios said.

The school is fighting against student fear by providing information about high school, even before they enter. This year, the 9th-grade class entered school on August 8, one day earlier than other high school students. This was done to help the freshmen by solving any doubts they could have.

"In general, they adapt well, because since middle school they have been given some information on what high school is," Ana Isabel Garcia, high school advisor, said.

The changes faced in 9th grade are more challenging than those found in middle school. However after experiencing the first two months of 9th grade, many 9th graders agree that 9th grade is not as hard as they thought it would be.

"It's not that different from middle school," Palacios said.

High school is harder than other grades as it's the final step students take before they enter the real world. Students must see the important role high school plays as it teaches them many skills that will help them improve their future.

"They do well because they come in with a good attitude(态度)and wish to adapt well," Garcia said.

24．What did Palacios think of the freshman challenges?

A．They would disappear soon. B．They were hard to fight of.

C．They happened as expected. D．They mostly focused on grades.

25．Why did Palacios' school require the 9th graders to enter the school on August 8?

A．To show them around the campus.

B．To help them deal with their nervousness.

C．To let them experience high school life in advance.

D．To avoid them hearing bad stories about high school.

26．What kind of feeling did Garcia express in her words?

A．Shock. B．Worry.

C．Excitement. D．Satisfaction.

27．Where is this text most likely from?

A．A news report. B．A study guide.

C．A personal diary. D．A class schedule.

C

Research has shown that people tend to get more happiness from spending their money on experiences, such as travel and entertainment (娱乐), than on things like clothes and electronic products. But are people happier during the purchased (购买的) experience itself? Or does the happiness come more from expecting or remembering the experience?

A new study, published in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, offers an answer. Our experimental purchases not only bring us greater pleasure in terms of expectation and remembrance than do our material (物质的) purchases, but they also bring us greater in-the-moment enjoyment, the study found.

For the study, the researchers recruited (招募) 2,635 adults who agreed to receive texts at any time during the day. The texts began with a happiness question, which asked the participants (参与者) to tell how they felt “right now”, ranging from very bad to very good. Half of them were then asked if they had made a material purchase within the past hour, such as clothing or electronic goods. The others were asked if they had made an experimental purchase within the past hour, such as eating in a restaurant or attending a concert.

The researchers found that the purchasers of the experiences express higher levels of happiness than the purchasers of the material goods, no matter how much the purchases cost.

To deal with possible differences in types of purchasers, the researchers carried out a second study in which they researched more than 5,000 adults. “We still found the same result,” said Amit Kumar, the study’s lead author (发起人).

“If you want to be happier, it might be wise to shift some of your spending away from material goods and a bit more towards experiences,” Kumar said. “That would probably lead to greater happiness.”

28．Why does the writer put forward two questions in paragraph 1?

A．To make a fact clear.                   B．To introduce a new study.

C．To compare different researches.          D．To doubt the view of researchers.

29．What did the researchers text the participants for?

A．To ask them about their spending plans.

B．To understand their needs and spending habits.

C．To know the change in their purchasing choices.

D．To find out their purchasing behavior and feelings.

30．Which has the similar meaning to the underlined word “shift” in the last paragraph?

A．satisfy. B．apply. C．change. D．increase.

31．What does the new study find about people’s purchases?

A．People prefer to purchase material goods instead of experiences.

B．People get more pleasure from spending money than making money.

C．The level of happiness from purchases depends on how much they cost.

D．Experimental purchases bring people greater happiness than material ones.

D

The men of influence in our lives are our fathers, brothers, grandfathers, uncles, and friends and they play an important role in our lives. They lead by example, teaching us how to move physically through our world, how to be strong in the face of adversity, how to be wise, and how to provide for ourselves and our families.

My dad taught me how to have natural fun, playing baseball in the middle of the street, in his stocking feet. Today my dad continues to influence me in positive ways. He has faced a challenging health problem over the past few months and has carried on with his life in much the same way as he did before his illness, going about his daily business a bit slower and needing to take more rests but still living his life the way he wishes to.

My grandfather taught me the value of being trusted. My father-in-law influenced my life in a different way. He was quiet, loving and a man of power. When he spoke, I listened, as he did not speak unless he had something to say.

My loving husband has encouraged me to be strong and independent, to think for myself, and not to look to him for permission. My husband has also taught me to adapt with him to the ever-changing reality of his journey with illness, and he has met each one with courage and dignity. I have learned much from the men who have had an influence on my life. For all that I have learned and for the role they played and continue to play in my life I am forever thankful.

32．What can be learned about the author’s father?

A．His life has completely changed. B．His business has faced difficulties.

C．He needs to rest most of the day. D．Something is wrong with his body.

33．Who encouraged the author to win the trust of others?

A．Her brother. B．Her husband. C．Her grandfather. D．Her father-in-law.

34．Which word best describes the author’s husband?

A．Lonely. B．Brave. C．Talkative. D．Quiet.

35．What does the text mainly talk about?

A．The influence of men. B．The advantages of men.

C．Holiday greetings. D．Women’s source of support.

Understanding teachers’ expectations

Usually, educators assign tricky and challenging tasks on purpose, because they want students to use and develop their skills.

67．阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。

“Surprise!” was the first thing I heard when I opened the door. My family and friends were all smiling at me. There were colorful balloons all over the house, a big poster saying "HAPPY BIRTHDAY'', and of course a cake with 12 candles. It was a wonderful feeling. I knew that I had finally turned twelve and I might possibly get the thing I wanted most.

I saw my mom and dad coming towards me with a small box which seemed to be a birthday present. When I opened the box, I couldn't believe my eyes. I had really gotten a mobile phone! Throwing myself into their arms, I let out a cry of joy, “Thank you! I love you guys!”

“You're welcome. We knew this was going to make you happy but we didn't only get you this because you turned twelve, but also because you are doing well in school. We expect you to keep getting good grades."

“Of course I will." I said confidently.

As soon as I got to school the next morning, I was showing off my phone and asking everyone for their number. It was cool how I got so many contacts on the first day.

It felt like I didn't even exist in that class anymore. I wouldn't pay much attention to the teachers because I was too busy on my phone. However, I didn't get caught using it.

I am pretty sure that the teacher did notice that I stopped paying attention to her because a week later we took a test and I failed. What was worse, my mom had to sign the test.

It was hard to show my mom the test. She was used to seeing A's and B's on my tests. Finally, I showed it to her, and she couldn't believe it. She was angry but most of all, she was disappointed.

注意：

1.续写短文的词数应为150左右；2.续写部分分为两段，每段的开头已给出。

Realizing the reason for my failure, my parents started to dislike the fact that I had a phone.

Then I started to wonder if I was wrong.

66．One possible version:

Let’s Live a Healthy Life

It’s important for us to pay attention to our health which is the foundation of our work and learning.

How to live a healthy life? To begin with, we should do more exercise after class, such as jogging, swimming and other outdoor activities. It’s of great benefit to both our body and our mind. What’s more, a balanced diet will also contribute to our health. Finally, we may meet daily pressure coming from every aspect, so we should try to learn how to deal with it in proper ways in order to protect our physical and mental health. Only by doing so can we build up our body and live a healthy life.

If you have any other effective way to live a healthy life, please share it with me.

67．Realizing the reason for my failure, my parents started to dislike the fact that I had a phone. They said they had noticed that I never paid attention to them. It was like I had my own little world. So they thought we didn't communicate as much with my phone. They regretted having given me a phone, which made me ignore the family and study.

Then I started to wonder if I was wrong. A week later I tried going a whole day without a phone and it didn’t go that badly. I had so much fun because I was actually spending time with my family and paying attention to them. From that day, I had a different opinion towards phones. Phones really take you away from the rest of the world. I' m not saying that phones are bad and not to use them, but you do have to spare some time to spend with your family and not get stuck with your phone all day.
