“Good morning,” the new teacher said."I'm Ernesto Flores, your teacher for fifth grade." In all his years in school, Julio had never heard a teacher use his or her first name. Of course, the students always found out what they were, but it was up to the students to discover this information for themselves.

“Now I'd like to find out who you are,” said Mr.Flores. He began to call the roll(点名), starting with the boys. Julio shook his head. Teachers always began with the girls.

“Julio Sanchez,” called Mr.Flores, pronouncing it Hulio. That was the correct way to say the name in Spanish.Several kids laughed. They had never heard Julio's name pronounced without the J.

Mr. Flores looked up from the roll book."Isn't that how you say your name?” he asked Julio."Or do you prefer Julio with a J?"

“At home, they call me Hulio. But at school everyone calls me Julio,” Julio said.

"Do you like two pronunciations of your name?” asked the teacher."It's a good Spanish name and you should be proud of it.”

Julio smiled."I know," he said,"but it doesn't matter to me."

“Are you sure?” asked Mr.Flores."Your name is a very important part of you."Julio thought for a moment."Okay,” he said."From now on, everyone please call me Hulio. Puerto Rico,where I was born, used to be a Spanish colony (殖民地).”

“That's right,” said Mr.Flores."Can you tell us something about Puerto Rico?""I came here when I was only eight months old. I don't remember anything," Julio replied."I think you can interview your parents instead," Mr. Flores said.

Julio nodded. It would be fun to learn more about the place where he had been born.Julio had to admit (承认) that Mr. Flores was creative and interesting.

Since the outbreak of COVID- 19 in early 2020, public health and government officials have put social distancing rules in place and advised people to stay at home as much as possible. Many schools around the world started online learning.

Do teenagers have it easy being home all the time? Not necessarily. They can't connect with teachers and friends in person and do outdoor activities. They are even concerned about the deadly disease. These have caused a rise in anxiety among young people.

In a study of about 1, 500 teens last spring, 70% kids said that they were struggling with anxiety and 45% had felt more stressed than usual. Poncin, a professor of clinical child psychiatry (精神病学), said that it's difficult to show exactly what is causing the increased stress. Some factors focus on our communities and families, while others are individual(个别的)."There are many stress factors that teens are worried about, like their parents losing jobs,family members getting sick, parents not being home, not talking with friends, and more,” Poncin said."Teens need to learn how to be together and how to talk and be with people.”

Thinking about something over and over also builds stress. To help ease (缓解) their worries, teens can bike,walk the dog or even pick up a new hobby.

In my home state of North Carolina, Roy Goode, head of the local educational agency, is especially concerned about students who don't have the resources they need to learn at home."Today's students are tomorrow's leaders,"he said."We need to make sure they all have a chance to succeed so we can overcome any challenge that comes our way."

8.Why does the author list the numbers in Paragraph 3?

A. To tell the reasons leading to anxiety.

B. To stress the importance of being together.

C. To show teens' increased mental problems.

D. To stress the need for dealing with sadness.

9. Which of the following best shows Poncin's opinion?

A. He believes chatting online helps.

B. He thinks teens should learn at home.

C. He thinks there are different reasons for teens' stress.

D. He believes government is responsible for COVID-19.

10. According to the passage, what can teens do to free them from worries?

A. Stay at home alone.       B. Develop new hobbies.

C. Play computer games.     D. Have a walk with friends.

第四部分书面表达(35分)

第一节阅读下面材料，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(20分)

Bob and I hung out the whole summer, running in the field, swimming in the lake and exploring everywhere joyfully.

It was a typical summer afternoon. Bob suggested we skip a language lesson to play basketball. Aha! I would show my defense, lay-ups and three-point shooting. I loved to explore,I loved sports, and I loved basketball most. I believed I would be the next LeBron James.

But my passion for sports came to a sudden stop when I began experiencing extreme back pain later that day.After several visits to doctors, finally I was told that a spine(脊柱) surgery was necessary. Unfortunately, the surgery accidentally damaged my spinal cord(脊髓). I was in the ward hanging face down to relieve the pressure on my spine.

After four-month rehabilitation training(康复训练) in hospital, reality slowly set in - I was unable to walk again. I couldn't believe this should have happened to me, that it wasn't possible to recover, that I wouldn't become a famous basketball player, that my life as I had known it, was over. My future would be chained to a wheelchair.I was just 16 years old!

Back home,I learned how hard it was going to be to get around in a wheelchair. I withdrew from my friends and my basketball. At Bob's repeated invitation, I agreed to go to our regular swimming hole. Unable to make it down the riverbank alone, I was too proud to ask for help. When I finally realized my pride would keep me away from people and sports I loved, I let Bob carry me on his back to the river's edge.

Allowing others to help was a turning point. I realized my attitude was the biggest barrier I had to face. How could I expect others to see my potential if I didn't see it myself? How could I realize my basketball dream if I withdrew into myself?

Paragraph1:One day, Bob took me to a wheelchair basketball game.

Paragraph2:With Bob's encouragement, I decided to have a try at my dream.
