17、Are you the person sitting in the corner of the classroom during the break time hoping no one will come up and talk to you? If this sounds like you, you are not alone. If you want to become more socially confident follow the advice.
Accept your personality. Many people happen to be introverted, meaning that you’re more comfortable spending time alone. If this sounds like you, don’t force yourself to completely become an outgoing, social person. Doing so can lead to stress, worry, and even heart disease. Instead, spend time in social situations you already enjoy and try to have meaningful conversations. By accepting your introverted nature, you can focus on the quality of your social communications.
Understand the importance of confidence. You can become socially confident by attracting other people in a way that interests them and makes them feel heard. These skills are known as social ability. Practicing social ability can create chances for yourself to get close to others.
Avoid negative (消极的) thoughts. If you don’t see yourself as socially confident, it can be easy to look for things that confirms your thoughts. Catch yourself thinking negative thoughts, and ask yourself what you see or hear can prove the thought. For example, imagine you’re thinking, “I know everyone here thinks I’m boring because I have nothing interesting to say.” Stop thinking that and ask yourself what proves the negative thought.
【小题1】What is the passage mainly about?
【小题2】The underlined word introverted in Paragraph 2 means _________.
【小题3】Where can you find this passage?
18、I know I’m not an ordinary (普通的) ten-year-old kid. I mean, sure, I do ordinary thing. I eat ice cream. I ride my bike. I play ball. I play video games. Things like that make me ordinary, I guess. Also, I feel ordinary inside. But I know ordinary kids don’t make other ordinary kids run away screaming in playgrounds. I know ordinary kids don’t get stared at (盯着) wherever they go.
If I found a magic lamp and I could have one wish, I would wish that I had a common face that no one ever noticed at all. I would wish that I could walk down the street without people seeing me and then doing that look-away thing.
But I’m kind of used to how I look by now. I know how to pretend (假装) I don’t see the faces people make when they see me. We’ve all gotten pretty good at that kind of thing: Mom and Dad my elder sister Via, and me. Actually, I should take that hack: Via is not so good at it. She can get really angry when people do something rude to me. Like, for example, one time in the playground, some older kids saw me and made some noises. I don’t even know what the noises were exactly because I didn’t hear them myself, but Via heard them and she just started shouting at those kids. That’s the way she is. I’m not that way.
Via doesn’t see me as ordinary. She says she does, but I know that if I were ordinary, she wouldn’t feel like she needs to protect me that much. Mom and Dad don’t see me as ordinary, either. They see me as special. I think the only person in the world who realizes how ordinary I am is me.
My name is August, by the way. I won’t describe what I look like to you. Whatever you’re thinking, it’s probably worse.
【小题1】Why does August think he is not ordinary from Paragraph 1?
【小题2】What kind of person do you think Via is according to the passage?
【小题3】What can we infer from the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?
19、Today, our children spend more and more time online. Many children spend a lot of their free time playing games on the Internet, on video game systems or on their mobile phones. In the UK, 99% of teen kids aged 8 to 15 play video games every week, and children as young as five play video games regularly (有规律地). This information tells that the advantages and dangers of video games must be carefully considered.
For many people, ________ They have bright lights, funny cartoons and exciting stories. Video games also make you think in a creative way and you have to move your hands and eyes quickly. This can improve the way that a child’s brain works. Video games also make children use their imagination (想象力). The player has to do many creative things, like drawing and building things. Video games are also a good way to teach children about technology because they can learn how computers and other devices (设备) work while they play.
However, a recent study suggests that video games can also be bad for children. First, children can download (下载) many games for free. They don’t need money, so they don’t need to ask their parents if they can download the games. This means that parents often don’t know if their children are playing violent (暴力的) or scary games. Second, many children spend too much time playing games on computers, smartphones and iPads and this can lead to health problems – children who spend too much time on the computer and don’t exercise can become overweight. Third, if children spend too much time playing games instead of doing homework, they can have problems at school and get bad grades. Finally, video games can affect children’s social skills, they might not learn how to play with their friends.
In conclusion, it seems clear that video games have some advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, they are fun and educational. On the other hand, they can cause problems with children’s health and social skills.It is up to parents to know what games their children are playing and how much time they spend on them. Parents should also make sure their children get enough exercise and spend time with other children.
【小题1】What does Paragraph 1 really want to tell us?
【小题2】Which of the following would be most suitable for _________ in Paragraph 2?
【小题3】Which is one of the disadvantages of video games?
【小题4】What can we learn from this passage?

六、阅读填表
36、先通读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容，在文章后表格的空格内填入一个最恰当的单词。所填单词必须写在答题卡对应题号的横线上。每个空格只能填一个单词。
Over the past billions of years, many animals and plants have lived on this beautiful planet. But about 99.9 percent of them died out. This is because they couldn’t adapt to (适应) where they lived. To survive, living things must change over time. This is called evolution (进化).
When reading this article, please remember that every one of us is a lucky dog. We evolve, and we survive! After years of evolution, now we have the abilities to live in the world and enjoy it. Just like humans, other animals on Earth also evolve great abilities. For example, giraffes live on the grassland of Africa. To adapt to life there, they have evolved longer necks to reach the high trees, as well as longer legs to run away from lions and cheetahs (猎豹).
However, evolution also gives giraffes a strange habit: They only sleep for about 30 minutes a day and less than 5 minutes a time, and they sleep standing! Why are they so wakeful? Well, that’s because they are so tall. They need longer time getting off the ground and run. Because of this special sleep style, they won’t become easy meals for others.
As you see, evolution isn’t always perfect. It helps animals to live, but it sometimes also gives them what they don’t really want. Don’t feel sorry. It’s part of natural selection (选择). In order to survive, all of this is necessary.

;
【解析】 【导语】本文主要介绍了进化，进化不总是完美的。它有助于动物生存，但是有时也会给它们不想要的东西。【小题1】根据“This is because they couldn’t adapt to (适应) where they lived. To survive, living things must change over time. This is called evolution (进化).”可知，人类和地球上的其他动物需要进化出强大的能力来适应环境。故填environment。【小题2】根据“For example, giraffes live on the grassland of Africa.”可知，这里是拿长颈鹿作为例子，take…for example表示“拿……作为例子”。故填example。【小题3】根据“To adapt to life there, they have evolved longer necks to reach the high trees”可知，它们进化出了更长的脖子以够到高大的树木。故填reach。【小题4】根据“They only sleep for about 30 minutes a day and less than 5 minutes a time, and they sleep standing! Why are they so wakeful? Well, that’s because they are so tall. They need longer time getting off the ground and run. Because of this special sleep style, they won’t become easy meals for others.”可知，它们只睡很短的时间，站着睡觉，否则很容易被别的动物吃掉。副词“easily”修饰动词“eat”。故填easily。【小题5】根据“As you see, evolution isn’t always perfect. It helps animals to live, but it sometimes also gives them what they don’t really want.”可知进化并不总是完美的。它有助于动物生存，但有时也会给它们真正不想要的东西，也就是不能满足它们的需求，satisfy意为“满足”，can后跟动词原形。故填satisfy。

39 、【答案】 writes so smoothly that it sells well;
【解析】 【详解】“写起来”用动词write，“流畅”应用副词smoothly来修饰动词write，“这么”是副词so来修饰smoothly，“畅销”是动词短语sell well。结合语境，可知该句应用一般现在时，且可用so…that引导结果状语从句。主句的主语This kind of pen为单数名词，因此谓语动词write应用其三单形式writes。that引导的结果状语从句中，主语应用代词it来指代“this kind of pen”，因此谓语动词sell也应用其三单形式sells。故填writes so smoothly that it sells well。
40 、【答案】 be paid attention to when I’m reading;
【解析】 【详解】分析句子可知，空处需要翻译的是“阅读时能注意更多细节”，当我阅读时：when I’m reading；注意：pay attention to，固定词组；主语是“more details”，此处表示细节被注意到，因此用被动语态，情态动词的被动语态构成是“情态动词+ be+done”，pay的过去分词形式为“paid”。故填be paid attention to when I’m reading。
41 、【答案】 in agreement with the possibility;
【解析】 【详解】根据中英文可知，in agreement with“同意”，介词短语；possibility“可能性”，名词。此处特指在太空种植蔬菜的可能性，使用定冠词the修饰名词possibility。故填in agreement with the possibility。
42 、【答案】 how soon he will change his mind;
【解析】 【详解】change one’s mind“改变某人的主意”，由“his”可知，one’s用his。根据“Can you guess”及汉语提示可知，本句为宾语从句，用特殊疑问词how soon“多久之后”引导，从句用陈述句语序，从句中主语是he，时态是一般将来时，谓语用will change his mind。故填how soon he will change his mind。

I have a lot of friendly neighbors, and we got along very well. We used to have a very small garden, and now developed into a dump. The environment has gone bad. So I became a volunteer. I organized some volunteers to work with my neighbors to make our environment better. We planted many saplings together. I also taught people to wrap up their non wooden buckets and paper towels as garbage cans. Our environment is good, many of the community residents also joined the team. I felt very proud for myself! Being a volunteer makes me more confident. I have many friends. I also get very high grades. I realize that happiness is not just a feeling all the time. It is an action.

17、Are you the person sitting in the corner of the classroom during the break time hoping no one will come up and talk to you? If this sounds like you, you are not alone. If you want to become more socially confident follow the advice.
Accept your personality. Many people happen to be introverted, meaning that you’re more comfortable spending time alone. If this sounds like you, don’t force yourself to completely become an outgoing, social person. Doing so can lead to stress, worry, and even heart disease. Instead, spend time in social situations you already enjoy and try to have meaningful conversations. By accepting your introverted nature, you can focus on the quality of your social communications.
Understand the importance of confidence. You can become socially confident by attracting other people in a way that interests them and makes them feel heard. These skills are known as social ability. Practicing social ability can create chances for yourself to get close to others.
Avoid negative (消极的) thoughts. If you don’t see yourself as socially confident, it can be easy to look for things that confirms your thoughts. Catch yourself thinking negative thoughts, and ask yourself what you see or hear can prove the thought. For example, imagine you’re thinking, “I know everyone here thinks I’m boring because I have nothing interesting to say.” Stop thinking that and ask yourself what proves the negative thought.
【小题1】What is the passage mainly about?
【小题2】The underlined word introverted in Paragraph 2 means _________.
【小题3】Where can you find this passage?
18、I know I’m not an ordinary (普通的) ten-year-old kid. I mean, sure, I do ordinary thing. I eat ice cream. I ride my bike. I play ball. I play video games. Things like that make me ordinary, I guess. Also, I feel ordinary inside. But I know ordinary kids don’t make other ordinary kids run away screaming in playgrounds. I know ordinary kids don’t get stared at (盯着) wherever they go.
If I found a magic lamp and I could have one wish, I would wish that I had a common face that no one ever noticed at all. I would wish that I could walk down the street without people seeing me and then doing that look-away thing.
But I’m kind of used to how I look by now. I know how to pretend (假装) I don’t see the faces people make when they see me. We’ve all gotten pretty good at that kind of thing: Mom and Dad my elder sister Via, and me. Actually, I should take that hack: Via is not so good at it. She can get really angry when people do something rude to me. Like, for example, one time in the playground, some older kids saw me and made some noises. I don’t even know what the noises were exactly because I didn’t hear them myself, but Via heard them and she just started shouting at those kids. That’s the way she is. I’m not that way.
Via doesn’t see me as ordinary. She says she does, but I know that if I were ordinary, she wouldn’t feel like she needs to protect me that much. Mom and Dad don’t see me as ordinary, either. They see me as special. I think the only person in the world who realizes how ordinary I am is me.
My name is August, by the way. I won’t describe what I look like to you. Whatever you’re thinking, it’s probably worse.
【小题1】Why does August think he is not ordinary from Paragraph 1?
【小题2】What kind of person do you think Via is according to the passage?
【小题3】What can we infer from the underlined sentence in the last paragraph?
19、Today, our children spend more and more time online. Many children spend a lot of their free time playing games on the Internet, on video game systems or on their mobile phones. In the UK, 99% of teen kids aged 8 to 15 play video games every week, and children as young as five play video games regularly (有规律地). This information tells that the advantages and dangers of video games must be carefully considered.
For many people, ________ They have bright lights, funny cartoons and exciting stories. Video games also make you think in a creative way and you have to move your hands and eyes quickly. This can improve the way that a child’s brain works. Video games also make children use their imagination (想象力). The player has to do many creative things, like drawing and building things. Video games are also a good way to teach children about technology because they can learn how computers and other devices (设备) work while they play.
However, a recent study suggests that video games can also be bad for children. First, children can download (下载) many games for free. They don’t need money, so they don’t need to ask their parents if they can download the games. This means that parents often don’t know if their children are playing violent (暴力的) or scary games. Second, many children spend too much time playing games on computers, smartphones and iPads and this can lead to health problems – children who spend too much time on the computer and don’t exercise can become overweight. Third, if children spend too much time playing games instead of doing homework, they can have problems at school and get bad grades. Finally, video games can affect children’s social skills, they might not learn how to play with their friends.
In conclusion, it seems clear that video games have some advantages and disadvantages. On the one hand, they are fun and educational. On the other hand, they can cause problems with children’s health and social skills.It is up to parents to know what games their children are playing and how much time they spend on them. Parents should also make sure their children get enough exercise and spend time with other children.
【小题1】What does Paragraph 1 really want to tell us?
【小题2】Which of the following would be most suitable for _________ in Paragraph 2?
【小题3】Which is one of the disadvantages of video games?
【小题4】What can we learn from this passage?

六、阅读填表
36、先通读下面的短文，然后根据短文内容，在文章后表格的空格内填入一个最恰当的单词。所填单词必须写在答题卡对应题号的横线上。每个空格只能填一个单词。
Over the past billions of years, many animals and plants have lived on this beautiful planet. But about 99.9 percent of them died out. This is because they couldn’t adapt to (适应) where they lived. To survive, living things must change over time. This is called evolution (进化).
When reading this article, please remember that every one of us is a lucky dog. We evolve, and we survive! After years of evolution, now we have the abilities to live in the world and enjoy it. Just like humans, other animals on Earth also evolve great abilities. For example, giraffes live on the grassland of Africa. To adapt to life there, they have evolved longer necks to reach the high trees, as well as longer legs to run away from lions and cheetahs (猎豹).
However, evolution also gives giraffes a strange habit: They only sleep for about 30 minutes a day and less than 5 minutes a time, and they sleep standing! Why are they so wakeful? Well, that’s because they are so tall. They need longer time getting off the ground and run. Because of this special sleep style, they won’t become easy meals for others.
As you see, evolution isn’t always perfect. It helps animals to live, but it sometimes also gives them what they don’t really want. Don’t feel sorry. It’s part of natural selection (选择). In order to survive, all of this is necessary.

Everything seems to be out of control sometimes, but what we can control is our state of mind. Having a happy mind is very important. As the saying goes, “Cheerfulness is health. Having a light heart is better than taking good medicine to relieve pain and sufferings”. I believe that it is important to keep a good mind as much as possible in our lives.
I have a lot of friendly neighbors, and we got along very well. We used to have a very small garden, and now developed into a dump. The environment has gone bad. So I became a volunteer. I organized some volunteers to work with my neighbors to make our environment better. We planted many saplings together. I also taught people to wrap up their non wooden buckets and paper towels as garbage cans. Our environment is good, many of the community residents also joined the team. I felt very proud for myself! Being a volunteer makes me more confident. I have many friends. I also get very high grades. I realize that happiness is not just a feeling all the time. It is an action.
