It’s been said that life turns on small things. Sometimes it’s hard to see how small
choices can change your life. But when put together over time, the little things can make the biggest
difference.
The theme of Success for Teens is “Little Things Matter”. The book helps teens
identify small,positive choices they can make in their lives to help them reach their goals. Lots
of teens don’t realize how the little choices in their lives can have lasting effects.
Often they focus on the bigger events, such as a major exam, a big game or competition,
or choosing a college. The little things, however, can go unnoticed unless your teen understands
how important they can be.
The little things that lead to success are mostly easy to do. Help your teen identify a few areas
in everyday life where he or she can make small, positive choices. It might be as simple
as getting up on time, prioritizing(按重要性排列) their schoolwork, putting in an extra 10 minutes of
practice or using some spare time to help someone else.
Nineteen-year-old Kyle Freas used to be on his school baseball team and would play every day
after school. When the season was over, he had an empty three hours a day, so he started
spending one third of such extra time daily looking for ways to help other kids. Over the
past few years, his project has raised thousands of dollars to help abused, homeless and sick
children. Kyle spent just a little time each day doing something that ended up benefiting 6
a lot of kids. The important thing to understand is that Kyle made the small and
positive decisions necessary for success. Make sure your child
understands that even though the results of the positive choices may not be seen right
away, they are building on each other and taking him or her on a path that will lead to success.7
25. What does the underlined part “turns on” in the first paragraph mean?
A. takes away B. depends on C. sets aside D. puts out
26. We can learn from Paragraph 2 that .
A. dealing with big events is the most important in one’s life
B. little choices seldom have lasting effects on one’s life
C. teens should try to focus their attention on big choices
D. many teens fail to realize the importance of little choices
27. Which of the following words can be used to describe Kyle Freas?
A. Kind-hearted. B. Creative. C. Naughty. D. Self-confident.
28. The writer mainly discussed the relationship between .
A. little choices and big choices B. teens’ goals and their actions
C. positive and negative decisions D. small positive choices and success
29. The text is most probably written for .
A. teenagers B. parents C. pupils D. teachers

According to a report by the United Nations，54 percent of the world’s population lives in urban areas
and it predicts that by 2050，this figure will have increased to around 70 percent.But as more and more people
migrate from the countryside to the city to get better opportunities，they can end up with nowhere to live．
This is true in places such as Rio de Janeiro， where migrants can’t rent or buy a home， and they end
up building their own communities and houses on unoccupied land.These are called shanty towns—poor
communities where the houses are built out of cheap materials—and often don’t have any electricity or water
supply．
These are，of course，not the megacities(大城市)of the future we want to see．Some serious urban planning
is needed to make our cities of the future good，safe and modern places to live in．This involves improving the
infrastructure( 基 础 设 施 ) ， the housing conditions and also the opportunities for education and
employment．
Something urban planners are looking at now is the creation of“smart cities”．According to John Rossant，
founder and chairman of the non-profit organization New Cities Foundation ， technology is the way
forward.He thinks that it’s generally accepted that“cloud computing, ubiquitous internet ， robust 5G
networks,etc ， will transform our cities.”He says technology is really“a game changer” in urbanisation．It
would collect large amounts of data about how a city is performing and may improve how a city functions.
This may sound like a utopian(乌托邦似的)view．For now，some big cities around the world are trying
out more low—tech schemes to try and make them desirable places to live and work in ． Building
shared—ownership housing and improving public transport are some ways. And encouraging cycling and
building bike lanes can keep the population healthy and cut down on smog．What would make your city a
better place to live in?
30. What’s the text mainly about?
A ． The city of the future ． B ． The increase of the 8
population． C．Urban construction． D．The function of smart cities．
31. Why does the author mention Rio de Janeiro in Paragraph 2?[9
A. To show the growth of the world population．
B. To show the problems in urbanization．
C. To show poor living conditions of the city．
D. To show financial trouble of the city．
32. What plays an important role in the creation of smart cities?
A．Technology． B．Urban planning．
C．The infrastructure of the city． D．Opportunities for
education． 33．What can we know from the last paragraph?
A．High-tech plans can be easily
realized． B．Public transport is well developed
in cities． C．Shared-ownership houses make
no sense． D．Ways of low-tech are available
at present．

wrinkle-free materials. 36 . You’ll still look fresh and bright when you are in them at your destination.

basics. 37 . So you don’t need to waste your effort to remember where you left your hand-written packing
lists.

disapproved of.
I wanted to 46 this quiet man. I did not believe it was his time to go. I had read about paper cranes（ 鹤 ）

hospital immediately my grandfather was awake. A visit to the hospital is 52 a pleasant one. However,
this time, I was 53 by the scent（香气）of flowers that visitors brought. I stepped into my grandfather's
ward and saw him holding our jar of paper cranes. This man of few words looked up at me and said, “My
good girl, thank you.”

Keeping a diary in English is an 54 (effect ) way to improve our English writing ability.
55 (compare)with other forms of writing, it is shorter and takes 56 (little)
time. It can help us to develop the habit of thinking in English. If we persist in this practice, gradually we'll
learn how to express ourselves in English. In keeping a diary in English, we certainly run up against many
57 (difficulty). In the first place, 58 often happens that we have trouble 59
(find )appropriate words and phrases to give expression to our mind. Secondly, there are many idiomatic
ways of saying things in Chinese. And it is extremely hard for us to put them into English 60 (proper).
As far as I 61 (concern), we should always have a notebook and a Chinese-English dictionary
within easy reach. 62 something beats us, we can first put it down in our notebook and then consult
our dictionary. We can also turn to our English teacher for help, if necessary. In short, I believe that it is
63 great use to keep a diary in English for the development of our writing skills.

第二节：概要写作（满分 25 分）
阅读下面短文，根据其内容写一篇 60 词左右的内容概要。
How could we possibly think that keeping animals in cages in unnatural environments
--- mostly for entertainment purposes is fair and respectful?
Zoo officials say they are concerned about animals. However, most zoos remain
“collections” of interesting “things” rather than protective habitats. Zoos teach people that it
is acceptable to keep animals bored, lonely, and far from their natural homes.
Zoos claim to educate people and save endangered species, but visitors leave zoos
without having learned anything meaningful about the animals’ natural behavior,
intelligence, or beauty. Zoos keep animals in small spaces or cages, and most signs only
mention the species’ name, diet, and natural range ( 分 布 区 ). The animals’ normal
behavior is seldom noticed because zoos don’t usually take care of the animals’ natural
needs.
The animals are kept together in small spaces, with no privacy and little opportunity for
mental and physical exercise. This results in unusual and self-destructive behavior called
zoochosis（动 物 精 神 病 ）. A worldwide study of zoos found that zoochosis is common
among animals kept in small spaces or cages. Another study showed that elephants spend 22
percent of their time making repeated head movements or biting cage bars, and bears spend
30 percent of their time walking back and forth, a sign of unhappiness and pain.
Furthermore, most animals in zoos are not endangered. Captive breeding(圈养繁殖)of
endangered big cats, Asian elephants, and other species has not resulted in their being sent
back to the wild. Zoos talk a lot about their captive breeding programs because they do not
want people to worry about a species dying out. In fact, baby animals also attract a lot of
paying customers. Haven’t we seen enough competitions to name baby animals?
Actually, we will save endangered species only if we save their habitats and put an end
to the reasons why people kill them. Instead of supporting zoos, we should support groups
that work to protect animals’ natural habitats.1

概要写作：One possible version
It is unfair to keep animals in zoos because most zoos only collect interesting
animals but don't protect them. (要点1) Firstly, visitors, when leaving zoos, haven't
increased their knowledge of animals and animal protection.(要点2) Secondly, kept in
small crowded spaces, animals even abnormally hurt themselves. (要点3) And thirdly,
most animals kept in zoos are not those dying out. (要点4) So we should support groups
protecting animals' natural habitats instead of supporting zoos. (要点5)
