B（必修一 U1 Life Chices）
At nine years ld, I didn’t realize hw extrardinary it was fr me and my grandmther t travel frm ur Black neighbrhd t the mainly white Revere Beach. While Black families stayed tgether in ne sectin, rarely venturing ut alne, my grandmther std ut — cnfident and athletic while swimming, unlike the ther wmen wrried abut their hair r suits.
She wuld carry me n her back int the cean, mving steadily alng the tide. I fllwed my grandmther’s strng mtins, thrilled by the wild sea and her fearlessness. I admired hw she seemed brn t the water, emerging like a queen — prud, radiant, and benevlent.
Summer made ur Black bdies mre visible and vulnerable against narrw cultural ideals, but my grandmther never nticed. She fcused n teaching me t swim — a skill that seemed unnecessary t sme, as the ppular media never prtrayed the “great utdrs” as a welcming place fr Black peple. It was seen as a space where we might feel uncmfrtable r even threatened. But t me, thse perceptins didn’t matter. When I finally learned t swim, it felt like I had unlcked a prfund and persnal secret f strength and freedm.
I nce wndered why enslaved Africans didn’t jump frm ships near shre and swim t freedm. Later I learned that mst castal waters in West Africa were filled with pisnus fish, making swimming uncmmn and dangerus. Nw, whenever I enter the cean, I remember my ancestrs fr whm the sea was a place f terrr rather than freedm.
Only after my grandmther’s death did I learn she wasn’t a strng swimmer herself. She had been brushing the cean flr with her feet all alng, keeping us aflat while teaching me rhythm and trust. Her quiet deceptin was nt a lie but a prfund act f bravery and curage. Thugh she hadn’t mastered it herself, my grandmther was determined t teach me t swim — nt fr the strkes, but fr the strength and self-belief that wuld keep me aflat in life.
24. Hw was the grandmther different frm ther wmen at the beach?
A. She stayed with Black families nly.
B. She avided getting her hair and suits wet.
C. She seemed t swim with ease and strength.
D. She std utside f the swimming sectin.
25. What des the authr realize abut African slaves?
A. They were pisnus by sea creatures.
B. They didn’t enjy utdr activities.
C. They rarely swam due t natural dangers.
D. They culd have easily escaped by swimming.
26. Why did the grandmther teach the authr t swim?
A. T challenge her limits.B. T build her cnfidence.
C. T prepare her fr dangers at sea.D. T prve Black peple culd swim.
27. Which title best suits the passage?
A. Overcming Fears at Revere Beach
B. A Summer That Changed My Childhd
C. Breaking Self-Dubt and Cultural Bias
D. Grandmther’s Empwering Lessns
C

He says the exhibitin can be cnsidered a stepping stne t prmte cultural exchange and create mutual situatins fr cmmn develpment between the peples f China and Ethipia.
“The backgrunds f the paintings make use f Ethipian styles and express the ideas f heaven, harvest, and relief, amng thers,” says Muluneh, wh drew similarities and absrbed essential parts frm the traditinal arts f bth cuntries.
In an interview, Wu says that he was taken by surprise when he saw an Ethipian artist painting Chinese characters. The exhibitin attracted members f the Chinese cmmunity in Addis Ababa, Ethipian artists and painters, and schl children.

D（选择性必修一Unit 1 Relatinships）
Picture this, yu win tw tickets t a sld-ut cncert and eagerly text t ask yur friends if they’d like t jin. There cmes their respnse “Maybe.” Yur md immediately turns, fr yu need t wait fr their decisins befre yu can figure ut yur plans fr the cncert.
If yu’ve experienced anything like the abve anecdte(趣闻), yu’re nt alne. Peple respnding “maybe” t invitatins is a cmmn yet annying aspect f scial life. What ges n in peple’s heads when they aren’t sure whether t accept an invitatin? Scial invitatins can be a delicate dance. Peple ften misread what smene extending an invitatin wants t hear and verestimate an inviter’s likelihd f preferring a “maybe” ver a “n.” Mrever, they fail t realize hw much mre disrespected peple feel when they receive a “maybe” in respnse t their invitatin.
Naturally, we wanted t figure ut why this awkward dynamic plays ut. We fund that it’s largely due t smething called “mtivated reasning.” Mtivated reasning ccurs when a persn interprets infrmatin in a biased(有偏差的) way t suit their wn wishes. In ther wrds, invitees cnvince themselves that inviters want t hear “maybe” instead f “n” because a “maybe” is better fr the invitees, allwing them t leave their ptins pen. Besides, peple tend t verestimate the negative cnsequences f saying “n” t invitatins, thinking it will upset, anger and disappint inviters.
Hwever, there were certain situatins that made peple mre cmfrtable saying “n” t an invitatin. When recipients f an invitatin put themselves in the shes f the persn extending the invitatin, they are mre likely t realize that they’d prbably prefer a definite answer. When the participants get invited t d smething they didn’t want t d, they had n desire t keep their ptins pen. The mtivated reasning then became irrelevant.
While navigating scial situatins can be tricky, being direct and definite is smetimes best. It might reduce yur ptins. But it’ll keep thse wh invite yu frm being left uncertain and maybe they will still think f yu when the next cncert cmes t twn.
32. Why is the cncert anecdte mentined at the beginning?
A. T explain the backgrund f the invitatin.
B. T stress the imprtance f quick replies.
C. T encurage immediate decisin- making.
D. T intrduce a cmmn scial situatin.
33. What is the main reasn fr the respnse f “maybe” t an invitatin?
A. A biased interpretatin f scial cues.
B. A desire fr harmnius cmmunicatin.
C. An underestimatin f refusal cnsequence.
D. An understanding f the inviter’s expectatin.
34. What is the authr’s suggestin in the last paragraph?
A. Keeping yur ptins pen fr better plans.
B. Accepting invitatins t maintain friendships.
C. Priritizing clear respnse ver pen ptins.
D. Thinking twice befre refusing an invitatin.
35.What’s the passage’s main purpse?
A. T explre why peple say “maybe” and advcate clear replies.
B. T explain the hidden cnsequences f “maybe” in scial invitatins.
C. T discuss the awkwardness f uncertain replies and share advice.
D. T keep ptins pen by changing replies frm “n” t “maybe”.

Over the last few years, there has been a trend t fcus n gratitude.

37 Studies have fund that keeping a gratitude jurnal can decrease materialism and enhance genersity amng adlescents.

What wrks fr sme peple may nt wrk fr thers. There’s a lack f research n hw gratitude exercises help peple with anxiety r clinical depressin. Indeed, fr all the research n the brad benefits f expressing gratitude, it is nt fr everyne. 39 It can’t make injustice, lss r pain disappear.
During really tugh times, like when she suffers frm pr health, Sants feels like she is reaching fr reasns t be grateful. But she still tries t find sme. “I’m grateful fr the sun that’s shining r being able t wake up.” she says. 40
A. That is, it’s nt a cure-all.

N ne else in the schl had my skills r preparatin!
I fund him in his classrm, but he insisted there was n mistake and emphasized that every rle in a play was imprtant. Unable t accept the fact, I burst int tears. Mr. Ellisn managed t calm me dwn and encuraged me t have a try in the rehearsal (排练).
