The year just keeps getting better for new, young author Sierra Blair – her latest
book appearing in the iconic Atlantis resort and now high praise from high-ranking
education officials.
“I hope that through her writing we would be able to motivate the young people
in our school systems. One of our challenges is the capability within literacy(读写能
力) and it is clear that the gift is there, it’s only a matter of exploring it so I’m very
impressed and also grateful to her parents for encouraging her to take this very
important step of publishing,” said Jeffrey Lloyd, Minister of Education during a
one-on-one sit down and conversation. The young author caught media attention last
year after publishing her first book on Amazon. The newest and independently
published children’s book “Roman and the Pink Flamingos” is inspired by Sierra’s
three-year-old brother, Roman.
“It’s frightening to bring something to the public that you’ve put a lot of work
into and someone could very easily tear it apart or tease me, ‘It’s not good enough.’
Although I have my family and others in my corner, to meet persons in power and get
a positive feedback from them makes me feel like I’m on the right path,” said Sierra.
During the conversation, the governor general Dame Pindling asked about the
book and creative process involved( 涉 及 ) in bringing the series to life. She urged
Sierra to not only write children’s fiction but to one day work deeper into the fabric
( 结 构 ) of the nation, documenting what she observed. “She encouraged me in my
creative pursuits and praised me for being independent in my professional
development. I deeply enjoyed our conversation,” said Sierra.
Sierra wasn’t the only one to be moved by the visit.
24. What drove Sierra to write her latest book?A. Her gift for literacy. B. Attention from the media.
C. Her little brother Roman. D. Her parents’ encouragement.
25. Why did Sierra feel afraid to bring something to the public?
A. Because others might laugh at her.
B. Because she felt on the wrong way.
C. Because her family did not support her.
D. Because her book was not good enough.
26. Which of the following can best describe Sierra?
A. Creative and inspiring. B. Independent and polite.
C. Determined and practical. D. Ambitious and sensitive.
27. What would the author probably write in the paragraph that follows?
A. Visit from another journalist. B. Stories behind Sierra’s books.
C. Sierra’s another popular book. D. Comments from another person.
C
The majority of people on this planet live through ego(自我意识). They feel that
they are themselves special, apart from the crowd in some way. Also, they aren't
willing to acknowledge other people's special-ness, and feel that they are threatened
by the people who are different from them.
Besides, there are many different 'exclusive clubs' which people join under
certain conditions, like Colour of skin clubs, Sports clubs, and so on. What many
people fail to acknowledge, however, is that there is in fact only one club The Human
Being club.
Our diversity is what makes life interesting. I love watching people who dance or
create music beautifully, draw out emotions through their acting skills, or are
accomplished athletes. I also understand myself well enough to know that I don't have
enough passion for any of these things to make the sacrifices necessary to come close
to their level of excellence.
I believe that it is human nature to communicate and cooperate with people who
are like us, but what a lot of people see as 'like us' is narrowed down to very
superficial(表面) characteristics. I remember my Jamaican friend's sister being most
put out. She had been the only black woman in her company and then another black
woman was employed. They were automatically put to work together because they
were both black and obviously had a lot in common - so thought the employer! The
truth was that they had nothing in common, didn't come from the same country and
actively disliked each other. It's always a mistake to assume anything on a purely
superficial basis.
I have many friends who are members of a variety of the above mentioned clubs
and each one of them has taught me so much about different cultures and life styles,
and has enriched my life in the process. I encourage anyone to strike up a
conversation with someone who doesn't look like them - you might be surprised at
exactly how much you have in common.
28. According to the first two paragraphs people tend to _________.
A. feel they are special B. feel they are lack of ego
C. admit others are special D. admit only one club exist 29. How is the Paragraph 3 mainly developed?
A. By analyzing causes. B. By setting an example.
C. By giving a description. D. By making comparisons.
30. The author mentioned his Jamaican friend’s sister to show ___________.
A. black women have a lot in common indeed
B. it is human nature to cooperate with people
C. people understand “like us” in a narrow way
D. people often make mistakes in judging others
31. What does the author advise people to do in the last paragraph?
A. To enrich their own life. B. To join an exclusive club.
C. To talk to different people. D. To experience different life.
D
We know that our smartphones are expertly-designed distraction devices that
weaken our efforts to resist. But, we also know that resistance is important if we’re
ever going to find a workable middle ground with our phones – and a recent has
served up another reason to strengthen our resolve.
Here it is: when you pick up your phone while doing anything mentally
challenging, you're handicapping your brain’s ability to recharge and performance
predictably decreases.
That’s the conclusion of a study that put roughly 400 college students to task
solving challenging word puzzles. When they were about halfway through, the
researchers allowed most of the students to take a break either using their phones,
using a computer or reading a print circular. Other students were told to just keep on
working without any sort of break.
The results showed that the students who took a break with their phones were the
worst performers of all the groups. They took 19% longer to finish the tasks and they
solved 22% fewer word-problems than all the other groups combined. In fact, the
cell-phone group’s efficiency and processing speed was about the same as the group
that took no break.
The reason offered by the researchers isn’t merely because digital devices are
inherently engaging(迷人的), but because our smartphones are attention gates into so
many other attention-catching areas, each pulling our mental energy in different
directions.
This research stresses that we ignored the energy reduction from using our
smartphones, and that we were over-confident about what our brains can handle. We
also overlooked the emotional connection we'd developed with our phones. It's no
longer just a device. It's a companion.
“It is important to know the costs associated with reaching for this device during
every spare minute,” Kurtzberg added. “We assume it’s no different from any other
break – but the phone may carry increasing levels of distraction that make it difficult
to return focused attention to work tasks.”
32. What does “resolve” in Paragraph 1 refer to?
A. Finding a workable phone. B. Resisting using phones.
C. Making full use of phones. D. Upgrading personal phones.33. The underlined word “handicapping” in Paragraph 2 probably means
___________.
A. strengthening B. performing C. weakening D. changing
34. What can we learn from the research?
A. There are two groups of students in the research.
B. All the students can not take a break in the research.
C. The cell-phone group did best in solving the puzzles.
D. Students have to complete word puzzles before the break.
35. What’s the main idea of the Paragraph 6?
A. The phone is no longer favored by people.
B. The phone is not as powerful as expected.
C. People cannot connect emotionally with phones.
D. People didn’t fully understand the effect of phones.

选项。
Self-care activities can help you cope with stress and improve overall well-being.
36 . Normally, a good deal of practicing self-care is learning how to understand
your own needs emotionally and physically. Now, let’s start from practicing physical
Self-Care.
Exercise regularly. Moving around does so many great things for you and can be
done in the comfort of your own home! Exercise for at least 30 minutes a day, even if
it's just in 10-minute breaks. It's okay if you can't exercise every single day, just aim
for most days of the week. 37 .Try to do a variety of different
interesting things.
38 . This will help keep you energized and your body healthy. When
you're busy working or taking care of others, it can be difficult to plan and cook a
healthy meal for yourself. Eventually though, the easy foods you tend to take are
going to weaken you and leave you feeling unhealthy.
Monitor your physical health. When you're sick, take time off work or school.
39 . Make sure you're taking any treatments consistently and accurately. Your
body is working to keep you alive, so take care of it well.
Make a vacation. 40 . Vacations don't necessarily have to be yearly
trips to the beach, as those can be stressful and expensive. Vacations can be
mini-breaks that you take from stress throughout the week or month. For example,
you can leave your work just for quiet and relaxation for half an hour every day. Find
places inside or outside your home that are comforting to you.
A. Eat healthy foods
B. Have your meal regularly
C. Practicing self-care is especially important
D. Schedule time-off from your responsibilities
E. Schedule regular appointments with your doctor

About how to keep healthy, I’d like to offer my advices. As we know, we
teenagers are going through a rapid growth which needs to be support by a healthy
and balanced diet. Thus, we need a variety of food but cut out the food rich in sugar or
fat. However, we should take physical exercise regular. For example, we can play
basketball or take walk after school. What’s more, have enough sleep is of great
importance. Therefore, you should have at least eight hours of sleep every day and not
stayed up too late. Only in this way that can we keep fit.

Since I was only a few blocks from Main Street, I went over to Martin’s. Did you know that
Martin’s has gone out of business? I’m not happy about that.

construction of shopping centers.

prefer to shop there is to save money. Everyone loves shopping centers and big stores due to the
low prices and the huge selection.

M: Well, I major in Social Care Studies. I’m hoping to apply for a job in social care when I
graduate, and this would give me some work experience in this field.
W: Great. And what makes you suitable for this kind of work, do you think?
M: Well, I have very good communication skills. That’s my strong point, I think. And I’m a good
listener. Sometimes you can help by just listening, you know.
W: I agree. Hmm, right. What I’d like to do, if it’s OK with you, is fix an appointment so we can
meet and talk about this some more. It wouldn’t be anything formal, not an interview or
anything like that. Er, how are you fixed for Tuesday 9th September at 4:30?

故 D 错误;学生被分为休息可使用手机,可使用电脑,可阅读打印通知以及不休息多组,
故 A 错误;第四段使用手机组在数独游戏中表现最差,故 C 错误;第三段最后一句“Other
students were told to just keep on working without any sort of break”表明并不是所有学生在
研究中都能休息,故 B 正确。
35. D。主旨大意题。第六段中根据研究强调的内容可知,人们没有充分的了解手机的
影响。故选择 D。
【答案】36. C 37. G 38. A 39. E 40. D
【解析】本文为说明文,介绍了从身体角度的自我照顾和保养。
36. 考查过渡句。根据前后句,从 self-care activities 到 practicing self-care,因此此句强调进
行 self-care 是非常重要的,因此选择答案 C。F 选项的 however 不正确,此句并不与前句形
成转折关系。
37. 考查拓展句。本段的中心是经常锻炼,而且此空前句说如果你没有办法每天都运动,那
么每周运动几天,就找自己喜欢和感兴趣的活动。这句话刚好和后一句话相铺垫,后句说可
以做不同类型有趣的事。
38. 考查主题句。后文叙述的内容,尤其是最后一句话“the easy foods you tend to take are
going to weaken you”,表明是要吃健康的食品,而并非号召大家饮食有规律。
39. 考查拓展句。根据后文提到的“taking any treatments”表明语境与医生有关,因此选择
E。
40. 考查拓展句。本段的中心是假日,因此选择了 D,找个时间远离你的职责,这就与放假
有关。

【答案】
61. basically 62. limited 63. is served 64. dates 65. to cook
66. best 67. a 68. However 69. who/that 70. masses
【解析】本文是一篇说明文。介绍了北京烤鸭。
61.考查词类转换。这里要用 basic 的副词形式 basically,表示基本上。
62.考查非谓语动词。Limit 的逻辑主语是 the legendary Peking Duck,两者形成被动关系,
因此用 done 的形式,填 limited.
63.考查被动语态。因 serve 与前面的 duck 形成被动关系,因此填写 is served。
64.考查动词的时态语态。短语 date back to 与主语构成主动关系,客观描述,时态为一
般现在时。
65.考查非谓语动词。厨师来到北京为皇帝烹饪,表目的,因此用 to cook。
66.考查形容词最高级。最好的厨师,因此用 good 的最高级 best。
67.考查冠词,这里的部长为泛指,因此填写 a。
68.考查逻辑关系的副词。前后句形成转折关系,因此用 However.
69.考查定语从句。这里是定语从句,后面从句结构缺少主语,先行词是 court chefs,因
此填写 that 或者 who。
70.考查名词单复数。这里指的是北京烤鸭令到更多人得以品尝,masses 表示大众。
【解析】
第一处:考查名词。advice 是不可数名词。
第二处:考查动词的语态。完整的被动语态,由 be 和过去分词构成,此处需使用被动语态,
因此填入 supported。
第三处:考查介词。减少用 cut down,而 cut out 表示切断、中止,不符合文意。
第四处:考查逻辑意义的副词。此处后文因和前文形成并列关系,因此用 besides,或者是
Moreover。
第五处:考查形容词到副词的转换。经常做练习,需用副词修饰动词 take,故用 regularly。
第六处:考查固定短语。Take a walk 表示散步。
第七处:考查非谓语动词。非谓语动词做主语,因此将 have 改成 having。
第八处:考查代词。本篇的主人翁都是第一人称,因此将 you 改成 we。
第九处:考查动词时态。stay 一词所在的信息句因与 and 前面部分并列,统一接在 should
之后,因此是用动词原形。
第十处:考查句式结构。Only 引导的倒装不需要用关联词 that,因此删去 that。
