Just like everyne, I have experienced ups and dwns in my life. I am an aerspace engineer frm India. I was tld by my relatives, clse friends and thers that it was hard fr a nn-IT student t pursue a master’s degree in IT and graduate frm a US university.
I had never taken curses related t cmputers r prgramming. I was never interested in being a prgrammer, but things changed. I became s captivated by the cnvenience IT has brught t ur life that I made up my mind t chase a master’s degree in IT.
At first, I came acrss t many difficulties and setbacks. Cming frm a middle-class family, the huge cst per credit was a big issue. My English accent was terrible. Mst imprtantly, the curse seemed impssible at first. Althugh I felt s discuraged and frustrated, I never thught f giving up.
Then I decided t chse my university because it prmised its students t help them learn practically. During my first mnth, it was difficult t understand the Americans’ accent and finish my assignments. But I never gave in. I walked tw miles t the university every day s that I culd use my travel mney t buy a meal. I started lking fr jbs and I gt an ffer t wrk as a student assistant, which meant lifting benches and chairs every day.
I tk all these challenges as my chances, and I believed that hard wrk was my strength. Right nw I am graduating with a GPA f 3.96/4 and a jb ffer frm a multinatinal cmpany that has asked me t start right after graduatin.

【导语】这是一篇记叙文。作者和朋友Peggy以前去巴黎都是跟团游，但这次是自由行，他们想自由探索。他们去了一家当地小咖啡馆，店主不会英语，他们法语也不好。一对老夫妇帮助他们点餐，通过手势和动物声音解释菜品。最后，老人送给他们玫瑰花，他们度过了一个难忘的夜晚。
1．考查词句猜测。根据第一段“My friend Peggy and I had bth been t Paris befre, but always signed up fr a tur grup, seeing all the usual turist sites and hearing the same tur guide recitatins. This wuld be the first time t visit it n ur Jack Jnes,free t gd anywhere and try anything.(我和我的朋友佩吉以前都去过巴黎，但总是报名参加旅行团，参观所有常见的旅游景点，听同样的导游讲解。这将是第一次visit it n ur Jack Jnes，在任何地方都可以自由地尝试任何事情。)”可知，作者和朋友这次旅行没有跟团，而是独自游览。visit it n ur Jack Jnes意为“独自地参观游览”。故答案为Visit it alne. / Visit it n ur wn.

3．考查细节理解。根据第三段“Since he spked very little English, his translatins tk the frm f gestures and animal sunds.(由于他很少说英语，他的翻译采用了手势和动物声音的形式。)”可知，老人因语言不通，借助手势和声音是为了生动地解释菜品。故答案为 T explain dishes t them vividly due t language barrier.

5．考查阅读表达。通读全文并结合文中既提到“the beauty f Paris”，又通过老年夫妇的热心帮助展现了当地人的友善与热情。作者的印象应涵盖风景与人文两方面，她可能认为巴黎不仅美丽，而且到处是善良友好的人民。故答案为 She may think Paris is nt nly beautiful but als full f kind and friendly peple.

When Tm transferred frm his rural middle schl t a bustling city high schl, he faced a crushing academic gap. Raised in a village where math lessns fcused n basic additin and subtractin, Tm felt utterly unprepared fr the city schl’s rigrus curriculum. Algebra equatins and gemetric therems seemed like a freign language. His first math test — a humiliating 42/100 — left him paralyzed with shame. “I’ll never catch up,” he thught, feeling verwhelmed and aviding eye cntact with classmates wh scred effrtlessly in the 90s.
Ms. Liu, a patient and bservant math teacher, recgnized Tm’s silent struggle. After class, she handed him a neatly printed practice sheet. “Let’s tackle this step by step,” she said. Fr the next three mnths, Ms. Liu dedicated tw afternns weekly t ne-n-ne tutring. She brke cmplex prblems int visual diagrams, cmparing algebraic variables t “missing puzzle pieces” and gemetric angles t “flded paper edges.” T help him memrize frmulas, she created catchy mnemnics (助记符，顺口溜), like “All Students Take Cffee” fr trignmetric (三角函数) ratis. Additinally, she invited Tm t jin her after-schl study grup, where peers shared prblem-slving shrtcuts in a judgment-free zne.
Tm’s determinatin matched his teacher’s effrt. He transfrmed every spare mment int a learning pprtunity: reviewing flashcards during his hur-lng bus cmmute, slving practice prblems during lunch breaks, and rewriting ntes until his hands cramped. Each evening, he emailed Ms. Liu his hmewrk drafts, and she respnded with detailed crrectins by dawn. Prgress was painfully slw—his next test climbed t 65, then 78 — but Tm clung t Ms. Liu’s mantra: “Small steps still mve muntains.”
The turning pint arrived when Ms. Liu surprised him with an applicatin fr the Reginal Math Olympiad. “Yu’re ready,” she insisted, thugh Tm dubted himself. Fr weeks, he drilled past cmpetitin papers, ften wrking past midnight. On the day f the event, his palms sweat as he faced the first algebra prblem, but Ms. Liu’s vice eched in his mind: “Fcus n what yu knw.” When results were annunced, Tm’s name appeared under “Hnrable Mentins” — an achievement he’d never imagined pssible.
At the award ceremny, Tm clutched (紧握，抱紧) his certificate, tears blurring the stage lights. “Ms. Liu didn’t just teach me math,” he tld the crwd, his vice trembling. “She shwed me that failure is just the first draft f success.” The applause frm classmates and teachers cemented a truth Tm nw embraced: perseverance culd bridge even the widest gaps.
1．What was Tm’s biggest prblem after transferring t the city high schl? (N mre than 8 wrds)

2．Explain the meaning f the wrd “verwhelmed” in Paragraph 1. (N mre than 2 wrds)

3．List tw specific ways Ms. Liu helped Tm imprve his math skills. (N mre than 15 wrds)

4．What des Tm’s participatin in the math cmpetitin shw abut his grwth? (N mre than 20 wrds)

5．What lessn can students learn frm this stry? (N mre than 25 wrds)

2．Feeling defeated.
3．One-n-ne tutring; study grup participatin.
4．He vercame self-dubt and prved perseverance leads t success.
5．Perseverance and guidance can bridge gaps, as failure is success’s first draft.

1．考查细节理解。根据第一段“When Tm transferred frm his rural middle schl t a bustling city high schl, he faced a crushing academic gap.(当汤姆从乡村中学转学到一座繁华的城市高中时，他面临着巨大的学业差距)”可知，汤姆转学到市立高中后最大的问题是巨大的学业差距。故答案为A crushing academic gap.
2．考查词句猜测。根据划线词上文“His first math test — a humiliating 42/100 — left him paralyzed with shame. “I’ll never catch up,” he thught(他的第一次数学考试成绩惨不忍睹——仅得 42 分（满分 100 分），这让他羞愧得无法言语。他心想：“我永远也赶不上了。”)”可知，汤姆因为成绩差感到挫败。故划线词意思是“感到挫败”。故答案为Feeling defeated.
3．考查细节理解。根据第二段“Fr the next three mnths, Ms. Liu dedicated tw afternns weekly t ne-n-ne tutring.(接下来的三个月里，刘老师每周会抽出两个下午的时间对他进行一对一辅导)”以及“Additinally, she invited Tm t jin her after-schl study grup, where peers shared prblem-slving shrtcuts in a judgment-free zne.(此外，她还邀请汤姆加入她的课外学习小组，在那里同学们可以在一个没有评判的环境中分享解题技巧)”可知，刘女士帮助汤姆提高数学能力的两种具体方法是一对一辅导和参加学习小组。故答案为One-n-ne tutring; study grup participatin.
4．考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段“Fr weeks, he drilled past cmpetitin papers, ften wrking past midnight. On the day f the event, his palms sweat as he faced the first algebra prblem, but Ms. Liu’s vice eched in his mind: “Fcus n what yu knw.” When results were annunced, Tm’s name appeared under “Hnrable Mentins” — an achievement he’d never imagined pssible.(几周来，他一直练习超出竞赛范围的试卷，常常学习到深夜。在比赛当天，当他面对第一个代数问题时，手心直冒汗，但刘老师的声音在他脑海中回响：“专注于你所掌握的知识。”当结果公布时，汤姆的名字出现在“荣誉提名”那一栏——这是一个他从未想过能够取得的成就)”以及最后一段“The applause frm classmates and teachers cemented a truth Tm nw embraced: perseverance culd bridge even the widest gaps.(他的声音因激动而颤抖。同学们和老师们发出的掌声证实了汤姆现在所坚信的一个真理：坚持不懈能够弥合哪怕是最巨大的鸿沟)”可知，汤姆参加数学竞赛这件事说明他克服了自我怀疑，并证明了坚持不懈就能取得成功。故答案为He vercame self-dubt and prved perseverance leads t success.
5．考查开放题。根据“从这个故事中，学生们能学到什么教训呢？”可回答：坚持不懈和悉心指导能够填补差距，因为失败是成功的最初草稿。故答案为Perseverance and guidance can bridge gaps, as failure is success’s first draft.

This is a stry f a mdern schl — Summerhill. Summerhill began as an experimental schl. It is n lnger such; it is nw a demnstratin schl, fr it demnstrates that freedm wrks. When my wife and I began the schl, we had ne main philsphy: t make the schl fit the child — instead f making the child fit the schl.
Obviusly, a schl that makes active children sit at desks studying mstly useless subjects is a bad schl. It is a gd schl nly fr thse wh believe in such a schl, fr thse uncreative citizens wh want bedient, uncreative children wh will fit int a civilizatin whse standard f success is fame and frtune.
I had taught in rdinary schls fr many years. I knew the ther way well. I knew it was all wrng. It was wrng because it was based n an adult cnceptin f what a child shuld be and f hw a child shuld learn.
Well, we set ut t make a schl in which we shuld allw children the freedm t be themselves. In rder t d this, we had t abandn all disciplines, all directins, all suggestins, all mral training, and all religius instructins. We have been called brave, but it did nt require curage. All it required was what we had — a cmplete belief in the child as a gd, nt an evil, being.
My view is that a child is brn wise and realistic. If left t himself withut adult suggestins f any kind, he will develp as far as he is capable f develping. Lgically, Summerhill is a place in which peple wh have the inherent ability and wish t be schlars will be schlars; while thse wh are nly fit t sweep the streets will sweep the streets. But we have nt prduced a street cleaner s far. Nr d I write this snbbishly (势利的), fr I wuld rather see a schl prduce a happy street cleaner than an anxius schlar.
1．Why is Summerhill regarded as “a demnstratin schl”? (n mre than 10 wrds)

2．Why did Summerhill abandn all disciplines and mral training? (n mre than 8 wrds)

3．Hw des the authr view children’s nature accrding t the text? (n mre than 12 wrds)

4．What des the underlined wrd mean in the last paragraph? (1 wrd)

5．D yu agree with Summerhill’s apprach? Give ne reasn. (n mre than 20 wrds)

【答案】1．(Because) it prves/ demnstrates freedm wrks (fr the students) .
2．T allw children the freedm t develp naturally/ t be themselves.
/ T let children grw freely int their best selves.
3．Children are brn wise, realistic, and capable f self-develpment.
/Children are brn wise, realistic, and capable f develping by themselves.
/Children are brn wise, realistic, and able t develp by themselves.
4．Natural. / Inbrn. / Inbuilt. / Built-in. / Innate.
5．Yes, because it respects individuality and fsters creativity.
/Yes, because it help children develp individuality, and encurages creativity and genuine learning.
Or: N, because sme children may need guidance t discver their ptential.
/N, because disciplines and directins are essential fr sme children t develp prperly.
【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章介绍了Summerhill（夏山学校）的办学理念和实践。
1．考查细节理解。根据第一段中“It is n lnger such; it is nw a demnstratin schl, fr it demnstrates that freedm wrks.(如今它已不再是那样了；它现在已成为一所示范学校，因为它证明了自由是有效的)”可知，Summerhill被称为“示范学校”（因为）这证明了自由对学生们是有益的。故答案为(Because) it prves/ demnstrates freedm wrks (fr the students).
2．考查细节理解。根据第四段中“Well, we set ut t make a schl in which we shuld allw children the freedm t be themselves. In rder t d this, we had t abandn all disciplines, all directins, all suggestins, all mral training, and all religius instructins.(好吧，我们着手创办一所学校，在那里我们要允许孩子们自由地做自己。为了做到这一点，我们不得不摒弃所有的纪律、所有的指导、所有的建议、所有的道德训练以及所有的宗教教育)”可知，Summerhill摒弃了所有纪律和道德教育是为了允许孩子们自由地自然成长/让他们做自己。/ 让孩子们自由地成长为最好的自己。故答案为T allw children the freedm t develp naturally/ t be themselves./ T let children grw freely int their best selves.
3．考查细节理解。根据最后一段中“My view is that a child is brn wise and realistic. If left t himself withut adult suggestins f any kind, he will develp as far as he is capable f develping. (我的观点是，孩子生来就聪明且务实。如果让他在没有任何成人干预的情况下自由成长，他就会按照自己的能力发展下去)”可知，作者认为孩子生来聪明、务实且能够自我发展。/ 孩子生来聪明、务实且能够自我成长。/ 孩子生来聪明、务实且能够通过自身发展。故答案为Children are brn wise, realistic, and capable f self-develpment./Children are brn wise, realistic, and capable f develping by themselves./Children are brn wise, realistic, and able t develp by themselves.
4．考查词句猜测。根据划线词上文“If left t himself withut adult suggestins f any kind, he will develp as far as he is capable f develping.(如果让他在没有任何成人干预的情况下自由成长，他就会按照自己的能力发展下去)”以及下文“ability and wish t be schlars will be schlars(有能力和愿望做学者就会成为学者)”可知，上文提到孩子可以按照自己的能力发展下去，说明成为学者是因为内在具有这样的能力。故划线词意思是“自然的/与生俱来的/内建的/内置的/内在的”故答案为Natural. / Inbrn. / Inbuilt. / Built-in. / Innate.
5．考查开放题。题目要求回答“你是否赞同Summerhill的做法？请给出一个理由。”可回答：是的，因为它尊重个体差异并培养创造力。/ 是的，因为它帮助孩子们发展个性，并鼓励创造力和真正的学习。或者：不是，因为有些孩子可能需要指导来发现他们的潜力。/ 不是，因为对于某些孩子来说，纪律和方向对于正常发展是必不可少的。故答案为Yes, because it respects individuality and fsters creativity./Yes, because it help children develp individuality, and encurages creativity and genuine learning. Or: N, because sme children may need guidance t discver their ptential./N, because disciplines and directins are essential fr sme children t develp prperly.

Sund unlikely? In research led by cgnitive scientist Jhn Bargh at Yale, peple wh held a cup f warm cffee befre an interview were mre likely t find an individual warm and kind. Happiness isn’t exclusively a cnscius decisin. Very ften ur bdies send signals abut hw we feel and ur cnscius brains are simply respnding rather than cntrlling. Feeling happier may start with ging utside since research shws that being arund water-including lakes, streams and pnds-imprves well-being mre dramatically than almst anything else.

Cnscius awareness takes abut half a secnd-which means that the ball crsses the plate befre the batter quite literally “knws” it. If the bdy functined nly with cnscius input, nbdy wuld ever hit a baseball.
Yu dn’t have t wait fr events t make yu happy-yu can always lk fr the gd. If yu make yur bdy a partner in the effrt, yu’re even mre likely t ptimize yur happiness. Hld that warm cffee, spend time by the water, r g fr a walk in the sunshine. Yur bdy will send the message that all is well-and yur brain just might start believing it.

【导语】这是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍了通过身体行为（如坐直、微笑、接触自然等）来提升幸福感的方法，强调身体反应先于大脑意识，改变日常习惯和环境能有效促进快乐。
1．考查细节理解。根据第一段“Yu can start right nw by sitting up a little straighter. Then give a brief smile-even a fake ne. These tweaks will tell yur brain that smething gd is abut t happen and yu’re mre likely t feel psitive. (你可以从现在开始坐直一点。然后给一个短暂的微笑——即使是假的。这些调整会告诉你的大脑，好事即将发生，你更有可能感到积极)”可知，坐直身体或微笑此类的行为调整可以使我们的大脑感觉积极，预期好事发生。故答案填They signal the brain t feel psitive.
2．考查细节理解。根据第三段“In ne 2013 study, researchers fund that having variety in a daily rutine and visiting places peple had never been simply made them feel happier. (在2013年的一项研究中，研究人员发现，在日常生活中丰富多彩，参观人们从未去过的地方，会让他们感到更快乐)”可知，根据一个2013年的研究，通过使日常活动多样化或者去一些陌生的地方参观都可以使人更快乐。故答案填By having variety in daily rutine and visiting new places.
3．考查细节理解。根据第四段“Bdy reacts faster than mind. In a baseball game, when a pitcher thrws a ball at 100 miles per hur, it takes abut fur-tenths f a secnd t get t the batter. Cnscius awareness takes abut half a secnd-which means that the ball crsses the plate befre the batter quite literally ‘knws’ it. (身体的反应比大脑更快。在棒球比赛中，当投手以每小时100英里的速度投球时，球到达击球手只需要大约四分之一秒。而意识的感知大约需要半秒——这意味着球会在击球手‘意识到’之前穿过本垒板)”可知，文中以棒球为例，来证明段首的结论：身体的反应比大脑更快。故答案填T shw bdy reacts faster than mind.
4．考查词义猜测。根据划线词前文“If yu make yur bdy a partner in the effrt, yu’re even mre likely t(如果你让你的身体成为你努力的伙伴，你甚至更有可能)”及后文“yur happiness. Hld that warm cffee, spend time by the water, r g fr a walk in the sunshine. Yur bdy will send the message that all is well-and yur brain just might start believing it.(你的幸福感。喝杯热咖啡，在水边呆一会儿，或者在阳光下散散步。你的身体会发出一切正常的信息，你的大脑可能会开始相信它)”可知，举例说让身体舒适会提升幸福感，由此推测，划线词意为“提升”。故答案填Imprve.
5．考查归纳总结及表达。根据第一段“If yur gal is t be happier in the year ahead, yu might fcus n yur bdy rather than yur mind. Yu can start right nw by sitting up a little straighter. Then give a brief smile-even a fake ne. These tweaks will tell yur brain that smething gd is abut t happen and yu’re mre likely t feel psitive.(如果你的目标是在未来的一年里更快乐，你可能要关注你的身体而不是你的思想。你可以从现在开始坐直一点。然后给一个短暂的微笑——即使是假的。这些调整会告诉你的大脑，好事即将发生，你更有可能感到积极)”及最后一段“Hld that warm cffee, spend time by the water, r g fr a walk in the sunshine. Yur bdy will send the message that all is well-and yur brain just might start believing it.(喝杯热咖啡，在水边呆一会儿，或者在阳光下散散步。你的身体会发出一切正常的信息，你的大脑可能会开始相信它)”可知，调整身体做一些好的动作，或做一些让身体舒适的事情会更快乐，例如去水边或树林里待着，阳光下散步，常常微笑等。故答案填I wuld always smile and spend mre time utside in nature because it imprves well-being and makes us happier.

(“你疯了吗？你终于退休了，为什么还要再去医院工作？”当我决定在从事护理工作四十年、退休四年之后重返岗位时，朋友们这样问我)”可知，朋友疑惑的是退休后为何再次从事医院工作。 故答案为：Why the authr wrked in a hspital again after retirement.

（2025·天津南开·三模）阅读短文，并按照题目要求用英语回答问题。
By day, Rbert Tittertn is a lawyer. In his spare time thugh he ges n stage beside pianist Maria Rasppva—nt as a musician but as her page turner. “I’m nt a trained musician, but I’ve learnt t read music s I can help Maria in her perfrmance.”
Mr Tittertn is chairman f the Omega Ensemble but has been the grup’s fficial page turner fr the past fur years. His jb is t sit beside the pianist and turn the pages f the scre (乐谱)s the musician desn’t have t break the flw f sund by ding it themselves. He said he became just as nervus as thse playing instruments n stage.
“A lt f skills are needed fr the jb. Yu have t make sure yu dn’t turn tw pages at nce and make sure yu find the repeats in the music when yu have t g back t the right spt.” Mr Tittertn explained.
Being a page turner requires plenty f practice. Sme pieces f music can g fr 40minutes and require up t 50 page turns, including back turns fr repeat passages. Silent nstage cmmunicatin is key, and each pianist has their wn style f “ndding” t indicate a page turn which they need t practise with their page turner.
But like all perfrmances, there are mments when things g wrng. “I was turning the page t get ready fr the next page, but the draft wind frm the turn caused the spare pages t cme ff the stand,” Mr Tittertn said, “Luckily I was able t catch them and put them back.”
Mst page turners are pian students r up-and-cming cncert pianists, althugh Ms Rasppva has nce asked her husband t help her ut n stage. “My husband is the wrst page turner,” she laughed. “He’s interested in the music, feeling every nte, and I have t say: ‘Turn, turn!’ “Rbert is the best page turner I’ve had in my entire life.”
1．What des Rbert Tittertn d in his spare time?（n mre than 10 wrds）

2．Hw des Mr Tittertn help the pianist as a page turner?（n mre than 12 wrds）

3．What’s the main idea f Paragraph 3 and 4?（n mre than 15 wrds）

4．Hw d yu understand the underlined phrase?（n mre than 2 wrds）

5．What d yu think f Ms Rasppva’s husband frm the passage? Please explain it in yur wn wrds.（n mre than 25 wrds）

【答案】1．He wrks as a page turner fr pianists.
2．He sits beside the pianist and turns the pages f the scre.
3．A lt f skills and practice are needed t be a page turner.
4．Detach/Drp ff。
5．He is nt gd at page turning because he fcuses t much n the music.
【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了翻谱员Rbert Tittertn的工作与经历。
1．考查细节理解。根据第一段中“In his spare time thugh he ges n stage beside pianist Maria Rasppva—nt as a musician but as her page turner.(不过，在业余时间，他会登上舞台，站在钢琴家玛丽亚・拉斯波波娃身旁——不是以音乐家的身份，而是作为她的乐谱翻页员)”可知，Rbert Tittertn在业余时间会作为翻谱员与钢琴家Maria Rasppva一起上台。故答案为He wrks as a page turner fr pianists.
2．考查细节理解。根据第二段中“His jb is t sit beside the pianist and turn the pages f the scre（乐谱）s the musician desn’t have t break the flw f sund by ding it themselves.(他的工作是坐在钢琴家身旁翻动乐谱，这样音乐家就不必自己翻页而打断演奏的流畅性)”可知，Tittertn先生作为翻谱员，他的工作是坐在钢琴家旁边翻乐谱，这样音乐家就不必自己翻页而打断音乐的流畅性。故答案为He sits beside the pianist and turns the pages f the scre.
3．考查段落大意。根据第三段““A lt f skills are needed fr the jb. Yu have t make sure yu dn’t turn tw pages at nce and make sure yu find the repeats in the music when yu have t g back t the right spt.” Mr Tittertn explained.(Tittertn先生解释道：“这份工作需要很多技巧。你必须确保不要一次翻两页，还要确保在音乐需要重复时能回到正确的位置找到重复段落。”)”和第四段的“Being a page turner requires plenty f practice.(成为一名翻页者需要大量的练习)”可知，这两段主要讲述了翻谱员需要具备的技能和需要的大量练习，这些都是为了确保音乐表演的顺利进行。故答案为A lt f skills and practice are needed t be a page turner.
4．考查短语理解（词句猜测）。根据第五段的“I was turning the page t get ready fr the next page, but the draft wind frm the turn caused the spare pages(我当时正在翻页，为下一页做准备，但翻页时产生的气流导致备用的乐谱页)”可知，Tittertn在翻页时，气流导致备用乐谱从谱架上掉落。所以“cme ff”在此表示 “脱离、脱落”，与 detach或drp ff含义相近。故答案为Detach/Drp ff。
5．考查推理判断。根据最后一段中““My husband is the wrst page turner,” she laughed. “He’s interested in the music, feeling every nte, and I have t say: ‘Turn, turn!’”(她笑着说：“我丈夫是最糟糕的乐谱翻页员。他太沉迷于音乐了，感受着每个音符，所以我不得不一直喊‘翻页，翻页！’”)”可知，Rasppva女士认为她的丈夫是最差的翻谱员，因为他太专注于音乐，感觉每一个音符，需要她不断提醒他翻页。这说明她丈夫因过于沉浸音乐而不擅长翻谱。故答案为He is nt gd at page turning because he fcuses t much n the music.

【导语】这是一篇记叙文，文章主要讲的是作者在暴风雨天气中前往佛罗里达帮助童年伙伴的旅途经历，飞机因天气原因延误后，作者遇到了善良的Deb和Mark一家，这家人不仅给了作者家人般的关怀，更是主动放弃直达航班选择陪同作者共同前往目的地的故事。
1．考查细节理解。根据文章第一段中“Her mther recgnized the difficulty she was having and understd that things wuld be much better if I culd cme and visit and spend a cuple f days helping her srt things ut.(她的母亲意识到了她的困难，她明白，如果我能去看望她，花几天时间帮她解决问题，情况会好得多)”可知，作者儿时的玩伴萨曼莎生活中有一些复杂的问题，所以萨曼莎妈妈希望我能去帮助她解决问题，所以作者旅行的目的是去看望（帮助）有困难的朋友，故答案为T visit/help her friend wh was in difficulty。
2．考查词句猜测。根据文章第二段划线词之前“When I arrived in Charltte, the flight had been delayed s much that there were n additinal flights ging ut fr the rest f the night. I became (当我到达Charltte的时候，航班已经延误了很多，以至于当晚剩下的时间里都没有额外的航班了。我变得)”以及之后“and burst int tears.(并且大哭起来)”可知，因为天气原因我没有赶上既定的航班，并且当晚也没有额外的航班了，由此可推测作者心情一定非常难过，所以划线词的意思为Sad/Upset，故答案为Sad/Upset。
3．考查细节理解。根据文章第四段中“Deb and Mark were heading t Orland with their tw teenage daughters. We all sat dwn and started chatting. They treated me immediately as thugh I was a family member.

4．考查细节理解。根据文章倒数第二段“That flight had fur seats, enugh fr Deb, Mark, and their daughters. But Deb and Mark declared that they wuld nt be taking that flight t Orland because I was part f their family fr the day, and they weren’t ging t leave part f their family behind.(那架飞机有四个座位，足够Deb, Mark和他们的女儿坐。但是Deb和Mark宣布他们不会乘坐那趟飞往奥兰多的航班，因为那天我是他们家的一员，他们不会丢下他们家的一员)”可知，这对夫妇放弃飞往目的地航班的原因是因为他们想陪伴作者，故答案为Because they wanted t stay with the authr。

Fr seven mnths, the dark-haired vilinist at the 34th Street subway statin had been just part f my mrning backgrund nise. His precise Vivaldi perfrmances blended with train annuncements and clicking heels as I rushed t my accunting jb, ccasinally drpping change but never exchanging wrds.
The mrning when everything changed began rdinarily enugh — anther rainy March day, anther hurried cmmute. As I mechanically drpped a dllar int his pen case, his bw suddenly stilled. “Excuse me,” he said with a mild Eastern Eurpean accent. “Yur right shelace…”
I glanced dwn t see the lace untied and cvered in mud. When I bent dwn t retie it, the musician knelt beside me, his vilin mmentarily frgtten. “Dangcrus in crwds,” he remarked, demnstrating a duble-knt technique. In that awkward psitin, I finally nticed the Budapest Academy f Music pin (别针) fastened inside his instrument case.
“Thank ” I hesitated, realizing I’d never learned his name.
“László,” he supplied, then surprised me by asking, “Yu always walk s fast. T where?” That simple questin revamped my rutine. As trains came and went, we talked — abut his transitin frm cncert halls t subway platfrms after mving t America, abut my grandmther’s Hungarian (匈牙利的) heritage. When he played “Szmrú Vasárnap” in recgnitin f ur shared rts, the familiar meldy stpped me mid-step. I was thrilled by the break frm my dull rutine.
Nw my cmmute includes scheduled pauses. On Mndays, I bring László fresh vilin strings frm the music stre near my ffice. On Thursdays, he brings me a cpy f the Hungarian newspaper he reads. What began as a shelace warning has grwn int smething remarkable — prf that beneath the mechanical rush f city life, human cnnectins still flurish in the unlikeliest places.
Smetimes, when latecmers rush past ur cnversatins, I see my frmer self in their hurried steps. They dn’t knw what they’re missing — the subway’s best musician wn’t call after them abut untied laces. That privilege belngs nly t thse wh finally stp mving lng enugh t listen.

【导语】这是一篇记叙文，文章主要讲述作者以前在地铁站路过一位小提琴手时都是放下零钱，从不交谈，有一次那位小提琴手提醒作者鞋带松了，之后两人开始交谈，这也改变了作者的习惯，并和小提琴手建立了友谊。
1．考查细节理解。根据第一段中“His precise Vivaldi perfrmances blended with train annuncements and clicking heels as I rushed t my accunting jb, ccasinally drpping change but never exchanging wrds.(他精确的Vivaldi表演与火车广播和我赶去会计工作时发出的咔哒声混在一起，我偶尔会掉零钱，但从不说话)”可知，作者以前经过那位小提琴手时放下零钱，但从未说过一句话，故答案是The authr drpped change but never exchanged wrds/ said anything.
2．考查细节理解。根据第二段中“As I mechanically drpped a dllar int his pen case, his bw suddenly stilled. ‘Excuse me,’ he said with a mild Eastern Eurpean accent. ‘Yur right shelace…’(我机械地往他打开的箱子里扔了一美元，他的弓突然停住了。‘对不起，’他带着轻微的东欧口音说。‘你右边的鞋带……’)”可知，因为小提琴手提醒作者鞋带松了，所以作者停下来和他说话，故答案是Because the vilinist warned the authr f the untied/ lse shelace.
3．考查词句猜测。根据第一段中“His precise Vivaldi perfrmances blended with train annuncements and clicking heels as I rushed t my accunting jb, ccasinally drpping change but never exchanging wrds.(他精确的Vivaldi表演与火车广播和我赶去会计工作时发出的咔哒声混在一起，我偶尔会掉零钱，但从不说话)”和划线词后“As trains came and went, we talked — abut his transitin frm cncert halls t subway platfrms after mving t America, abut my grandmther’s Hungarian (匈牙利的) heritage.(火车进进出出的时候，我们聊了聊他搬到美国后从音乐厅到地铁站台的转变，聊我祖母的匈牙利血统)”可知，作者以前从未和小提琴手说过话，后文提到他们聊了很多，作者原来的习惯被打破了，由此推知划线词所在句意为“这个简单的问题打破(或改变或中断)了我的习惯”，故答案是Brke./ Changed./ Interrupted.
4．考查主旨大意。根据第六段“Nw my cmmute includes scheduled pauses. On Mndays, I bring László fresh vilin strings frm the music stre near my ffice. On Thursdays, he brings me a cpy f the Hungarian newspaper he reads. What began as a shelace warning has grwn int smething remarkable — prf that beneath the mechanical rush f city life, human cnnectins still flurish in the unlikeliest places.(现在我的通勤包括了安排好的休息。每周一，我从办公室附近的乐器店买László新鲜的小提琴弦。每周四，他都会给我带来一份他读的匈牙利报纸。最初的鞋带警告已经发展成为一件了不起的事情——证明在城市生活的机械匆忙之下，人与人之间的联系仍然在最不可能的地方蓬勃发展)”可知，本段主要讲述作者的日常生活发生了变化，与László建立了友谊，故答案为They develped friendship. Or: They had mre cnnectins after the accidental meeting. Or: The authr’s rutine changed, leading t meaningful cnnectins with László.

That privilege belngs nly t thse wh finally stp mving lng enugh t listen.(有时，当迟到的人匆匆走过我们的谈话时，我在他们匆忙的脚步中看到了以前的自己。他们不知道他们错过了什么——地铁里最好的音乐家不会在他们身后打电话说鞋带松了。这种特权只属于那些最终停下来倾听的人)”可知，作者的故事给我的启发是，深刻的联系往往始于简单的关注行为，我们应该放慢脚步，与他人建立联系，故答案是(Open) One pssible answer: It inspires me that prfund cnnectins ften begin with simple acts f attentin and we shuld slw dwn t make bnds with thers.

Even at 93, my grandmther still knits blankets fr the lcal hspital’s babies and buys bks t cntinue with her French. “Age is just anther bt- her attempting t cnvince yu f the impssible in the wrld, but actually the wrld is filled with pssibilities,” she nce said.

【导语】本文是一篇记叙文。本文讲述了作者与祖母之间的日常交流，重点描绘了祖母积极向上、勇于尝试的生活态度，并表达了年龄不是限制、世界充满可能性的主旨。
1．考查词义猜测。根据第二段划线词前面的内容“She ften asks this, and I always answer the same way—“T have Granddad back” (她经常问我这个问题，我总是这样回答——“为了让爷爷回来。”)”以及划线词后的内容“Memries f their 67-year life tgether wuld always make her smile.(他们67年的共同生活总是让她微笑。)”可知，作者总是以同样的方式来回答：让爷爷回来，一提到这就会让奶奶想起了和爷爷在一起的时光，这些时光总是让奶奶微笑。故划线词意为“想起，记起来，想念”。故答案为Remembering./Thinking f./ Thinking abut. /Missing.
2．考查主旨大意。根据第三段中“My grandmther was brn in Ireland. In her teens, she mved t a pr village in England. At 28, my grandmther walked herself thrugh the snw t birth her first child. When she was 50, she survived an emergency surgery. In her 60s, she suffered frm arthritis(关节炎)but still managed t climb Snwdn, Wales’s tallest peak.(我祖母出生在爱尔兰。在她十几岁的时候，她搬到了英国的一个贫穷的村庄。28岁时，我的祖母在雪地里步行生下了她的第一个孩子。50岁时，她在一次紧急手术中幸存下来。60多岁时，她饱受关节炎之苦，但仍成功攀登了威尔士最高峰斯诺登峰。)”可知，本段主要介绍了奶奶的生活经历描述了奶奶具有丰富的人生经历，她是一位非凡的女性。故答案为My grandmther has/had a rich life experience./My grandmther has gne thrugh a lt./My grandmther is/was an extrardinary wman.
3．考查细节理解。根据第四段中“Abut a decade ag, I nticed that she began t lse her hearing. If I asked what she had fr lunch, she might say, “Oh, the weather has been lvely tday. ”(大约十年前，我注意到她的听力开始下降。如果我问她午餐吃了什么，她可能会说：“哦，今天天气真好。”)”可知，作者注意到祖母十年前开始失去听力，所以当作者问她午饭吃了什么时，她可能会说“哦，今天天气真好。”，这说明她无法听清作者的问题，因此会用同样的几个答案来回答作者的问题。故答案为Because she began t lse her hearing./Because she culd nt hear clearly.
4．考查细节理解。根据第六段中““Oh Richard, s many peple are ld at 60. They just want t sit all day. Yu wn’t make it t 90 like that. Yu have t try. ”(“哦，Richard，很多人60岁就老了。他们只想整天坐着。你这样活不到90岁的。你必须尝试。”)”以及第八段““Try walking, ” she said. “Try gardening. Try cking. Trying desn’t require a lt f trying. Just try a little . Like, with this cffee yu’ve made us. I knw yu tried . ”(“试试走路，”她说。“试试园艺。试着做饭。尝试并不需要很多尝试。就尝一点。比如，你给我们煮的咖啡。我知道你尽力了。”)”可知，作者祖母认为人要想在老年时成功，就要不断尝试。故答案为They shuld remain active in ld age./By trying different things./ They shuld try ding things.
5．开放性试题。本题为开放性试题，回答合理即可。根据问题内容“In yur pinin, what can yung peple d t imprve the quality f ld peple’s life? (在你看来，年轻人能做些什么来提高老年人的生活质量？)”可知，本人认为：我们可以帮助老年人学习新的技能，使他们能够跟上社会的步伐。或者他们可以更经常地看望他们的祖父母，花时间和他们在一起。故答案为We can help ld peple t learn new skills s that they can keep pace with sciety./They can visit their grandparents mre ften and spend time with them.

1．考查词义猜测。根据文章第一段“The fercius wind shk the windws wildly, as thugh smene utside were beating n the glass.(狂风猛烈地摇动着窗户，好像外面有人在敲打着玻璃。)”，结合常识可知，风肯定很大才会像窗外有人敲打着玻璃；形容风特别大可以用形容词fierce“猛的”、strng“强的”或vilent“暴力的”。故答案为Fierce./ Strng./ Vilent。
2．考查细节理解。根据文章第二段“We had fifteen peple standing arund and we still had t ck dinner. Hw wuld we d that withut electricity?(我们有15个人站着，我们还得做晚饭。没有电，我们要怎么办呢？)” 可知当时有15个人共同准备迎接新年，如何在断电的情况下准备这么多人的晚餐，变得很困难。故答案为N electricity./ The pwer failure./ There was n electricity./ Electricity was gne.。
3．考查细节理解。根据文章第三段“Why nt ck n the barbecue?(为什么不在烧烤架上做呢)”、“s we all sat arund the dining rm table and sang up until a few minutes befre midnight.(所以我们都坐在餐厅的桌子旁，一直唱到午夜前几分钟。)”和“we all cunted dwn and I drpped a tennis ball!(我们都开始倒数，然后我掉了一个网球！)” 可知，大家在烧烤架上做了饭、唱了歌，也做了新年倒数。故答案为They cked n the barbecue, sang, and cunted dwn./ By cking n the barbecue, singing, and cunting dwn.。
4．考查推理判断。根据文章第四段“Nwadays, we still get tgether with the same grup t celebrate the New Year and we still talk abut that special night. I dn’t think we have ever laughed s much as we did n that New Year’s Eve. (现在，我们仍然聚在一起庆祝新年，我们仍然谈论那个特别的夜晚。我想我们从来没有像那个新年前夜那样笑得那么开心过。)”可知，作者认为那一夜是特别的，是充满欢笑的。故答案为It was the mst exciting ne./ It was a night filled with laughter./ It was special./ Exciting./ Pleasant./ Unfrgettable./ Jyful./ Different./ Memrable./ Unique.。
5．考查推理判断。本题要求考生基于对篇章整体内容的理解，对青年人面对突发事件应如何面对给出自己的想法，为开放性试题。故参考答案为：It is curage, fr it gives us strength, which enables us t deal with difficulties.

【分析】这是一篇记叙文。讲述了退休艺术家Anneke Camstra，人老心不老，积极对待生活，在线上从事动画教学的故事。
1．考查细节理解。根据第一段中“She lves the experience f gaining new knwledge and als lves sharing it with thers. (她喜欢获得新知识的经历，也喜欢与他人分享。)”以及她所说的话“I’ve taken s many Udemy curses, and ifs such a great feeling t get my brain wrking again. I find just as much satisfactin in teaching animatin t. (我上了很多Udemy的课程，能让我的大脑重新工作真是太棒了。我在动画教学中也发现了同样的满足感。)”可知，Anneke退休后获得新的知识并与人分享，她参加Udemy课程并教授动画。故答案为Gaining new knwledge and sharing it with thers. Or: Taking Udemycurses and teaching animatin.
2．考查推理判断。根据第二段中“Her mtivatin fr teaching n Udemy is ‘t get the tls t the peple.’‘Yu can g such a lng way t make things that lk prfessinal but still have yur wn vice,’ she explained.(她教Udemy的动机是‘把工具带给人们’。她解释说：‘你可以走很长一段路，让事情看起来很专业，但仍然有自己的声音。’)”可以推知，她希望学生制作动画有专业性，同时要表达自己的思想，有自己的特色，实现自己的梦想。故答案为T make prfessinal prducts and express themselves. Or: T accmplish/cmplete prfessinal and unique wrks. Or: T achieve their gals/what they dream f.
3．考查主旨大意。根据第三段中“Anneke understands hw fear can get in the way f s many things peple dream f ding. With her five-day challenge curses, she helps them get ver the fear. Anneke lves the impact she has n her students. What makes her mre prud f them is that they have gne frm their first animatin t creating their wn wrks.
(Anneke知道恐惧是如何阻碍人们梦想的事情。通过为期五天的挑战课程，她帮助他们克服恐惧。Anneke喜欢她对学生的影响。更让她感到自豪的是，他们已经从第一部动画发展到创作自己的作品。)”可知，第3段的主旨是Anneke帮助学生克服克服恐惧并创造他们自己的动画作品。故答案为Anneke helps her students get ver the fear and create their wn animatin wrks.
4．考查词句猜测。划线词句后文“Grandparents, fr example, can learn t use GAnimate and make animatins tgether with their grandkids. (例如，祖父母可以学习使用GAnimate和他们的孙辈们一起制作动画。)”举例说明了Anneke主张让老年人和孙辈们一起制作动画，再根据划线词语“She encurages peple f all ages, especially lder peple, tcultivatetheir curisity fr life. (她鼓励所有年龄段的人，尤其是老年人，cultivate他们对生活的好奇心。)”可知，Anneke鼓励老年人，培养发展他们的好奇心。从而推知划线词语cultivate应为“培养；发展”的意思。故答案为Develp.
5．考查读后表达。通读全文，以Anneke Camstra的榜样，我建议应该让老年人学习使用社交媒体，因为它使老年人能更好的了解外面的世界。故答案为T learn t use scial media, because it allws them t get t knw the utside wrld better.

【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。文章讲述了作者坚持做自己真正喜欢做的事情，最后取得了成功。
1．考查细节理解。根据文章第一段内容“I’ve always been creative since I was a little girl. My childhd was filled with arts, crafts (手工) and music, and every day was an exciting adventure f creatin.（从我还是一个小女孩的时候起，我就很有创造力。我的童年充满了艺术、手工艺和音乐，每一天都是令人兴奋的创作冒险。）”可知，从作者还是一个小女孩的时候起，她就对有创意的东西感兴趣，对艺术、手工艺和音乐感兴趣。故答案为She was interested in arts, crafts and music./ She was interested in creative things.
2．考查词义猜测。根据画线单词所在句后句“Wrking this way fr ne year was painful enugh, let alne a lifetime. Befre lng I decided t make a change.（这样工作一年已经够痛苦的了，更别说一辈子了。不久我决定做出改变。）”可知，作者现在的工作让她感到痛苦，她并不喜欢这份工作。再根据第五段内容“As it became clearer that fashin was what I wanted t d full time, the reality f my day-t-day wrk at the insurance cmpany became harder. I felt bred. N energy, n mtivatin and zer fulfilment (满足感). （当我越来越清楚地意识到时尚是我全职想要做的事情时，我在保险公司的日常工作变得更加困难。我觉得无聊。没有活力，没有动力，没有满足感。）”可知，作者真正喜欢的是和时尚相关的工作，保险公司的工作让她感觉无聊。由此可知，画线单词所在句表示的是，在保险公司工作的日子漫长而乏味。故答案为Bring./Dull./Uninteresting.
3．考查细节理解。根据文章第四段内容“As I dreamt bigger, I began lking int cllege curses fr Fashin Design and three mnths later I signed up fr a part-time design curse. I attended classes tw nights a week. Althugh exhausting, it gave me energy, enthusiasm and happiness.（当我的梦想更大的时候，我开始研究时装设计的大学课程，三个月后我报名参加了一个兼职设计课程。我每周上两晚课。虽然很累，但它给了我活力、热情和快乐。）”可知，在参加了兼职设计课程后，作者感觉充满了活力、热情和快乐。故答案为She felt/was energetic, enthusiastic and happy./ She was filled with energy, enthusiasm and happiness.
4．考查细节理解。根据文章第三段关键句“One thing I had develped an interest in was sewing, s I tk a sewing curse at a cmmunity cllege.（我对缝纫产生了兴趣，所以我在一所社区大学上了缝纫课。）”，第四段关键句“As I dreamt bigger, I began lking int cllege curses fr Fashin Design and three mnths later I signed up fr a part-time design curse.（当我的梦想更大的时候，我开始研究时装设计的大学课程，三个月后我报名参加了一个兼职设计课程。）”和倒数第三段内容“I knew I needed t make a bigger change. After struggling fr quite a while, I made a difficult decisin—leaving my jb and studying my design curse full time. Tw years later I gt my diplma.（我知道我需要做出更大的改变。经过一段时间的挣扎，我做出了一个艰难的决定，离开我的工作，并全职学习我的设计课程。两年后我拿到了毕业证书。）”可知，作者为了恢复她有创造力的生活，她参加了一个缝纫班，并参加了一个兼职设计课程，辞去了工作，去上时装设计课，根据题目要求，从中选出两点事实即可，不超过15个词。故答案为She quit/quitted her jb and tk the fashin-design curse./ She attended a sewing class and tk a part-time design curse.
5．开放题。题目询问“你认为作者是你的榜样吗？请解释一下原因。”本题为开放性试题，根据自己的理解，言之有理，符合文章内容即可，不超过20个词，如果答案是肯定的，原因可以是“She has the curage t fllw her heart and d what she really likes.（她有勇气追随自己的心，做自己真正喜欢的事。）”；如果答案是否定的，原因可以是“I dn’t like changes and I want t live a secure life.（我不喜欢变化，我想过安全的生活。）”。故答案为Yes, (I d). She has the curage t fllw her heart and d what she really likes./ Yes, (I d). I’d like t live a creative life and make changes when necessary as she./ N, (I dn’t).

【分析】这是一篇记叙文。文章主要讲述了作者一直活在哥哥泰森的阴影下，他的哥哥很酷，所以他总是被忽略。但当哥哥离开去上大学，他独自开始学校生活时，通过加入学校的Science Olympiad，他找到了真正的自己，也按自己的理解重新定义了”酷”。
1．词义猜测题。根据第一段的As any yunger brther will tell yu, having a big brther invlves a lt f walking in smene else’s shadw, especially when yu have a brther wh is a typical example f “cl”. Fr years I wanted t d everything my elder brther Tysn did, but n matter hw hard I tried, I was always the neglected ne.可知，就像任何一个弟弟会告诉你的那样，有一个大哥哥意味着走在别人的影子里，尤其是当你有一个很“酷”的哥哥时。多年以来，我想做我的哥哥泰森做的一切，但是无论我怎么努力，我总是被忽略的一个。根据句意，尤其是I was always the neglected ne可推测，划线部分的意思是“得不到关注/被忽略”。故填:Receiving less attentin than smene else.
Or: Being/Feeling less successful than smene else.
Or: Being/Feeling neglected.
2．细节理解题。根据第二段的but when my family mved, everything changed. Tysn left fr cllege, s I had t start at a new schl all by myself. (但当我们搬家时，一切都改变了。泰森去上大学了，所以我不得不独自在一个新的学校开始)可知，搬家后，作者的哥哥去上大学以及作者独自开始新学校的生活给了作者他新的开始。故填:That his brther left fr cllege and he changed schls.
Or: Tysn’s leaving fr cllege and the authr’s ging t/attending a new schl.
3．细节理解题。根据第三段的I had always been fascinated with chemistry, bilgy, and math, but since thse interests hadn’t fit Tysn’s definitin f “cl”, I had never pursued them. On this day, fr sme reasn, I did. (我一直对化学、生物和数学着迷，但因为这些兴趣不符合泰森对“酷”的定义，所以我从来没有追求过。这一天，出于某种原因，我参加了)可知，参加Science Olympiad队是作者成长的转折点，因为他选择不再做哥哥的“影子”。故填:Jining the Science Olympiad team.
Or: That he jined the Science Olympiad team.
Or: Discvering his true interests (in science).
4．主旨大意题。根据本段的主要内容，尤其是Nw I knw wh I am! I’m Tysn’s little brther, but that’s nly part f my identity. I’m a cl guy in my wn way, t. I’m relieved t knw that “cl” has a much brader definitin than what I used t think.(现在我知道我是谁了！我是泰森的弟弟，但那只是我身份的一部分。按照我自的方式，我也是个很酷的人。知道酷的定义比我以前认为的要宽泛得多，我感到很欣慰)可知，本段主要讲述了作者找到了自己的身份以及自己对酷的定义。故填:(Hw) the authr discvered a brader definitin f “cl”.
Or: He has discvered his wn way t be cl.
Or: He fund his wn identity.
5．开放性题目。只要回答出自己认为什么很酷，以及原因即可。故可填:Playing ftball well is cl because I can shw hw strng I am.
Or: Playing the pian is cl because it can give me jy.
Or: Helping the pr is cl because it can give them hpe and bring me pleasure.

【分析】本文是一篇记叙文。作者是一个害羞的人，害羞使作者不敢参加活动，并把自己封闭起来。后来作者接受了自己的害怕，并创建了Shy and Mighty Sciety，给像自己一样害羞的人发光的空间，共同提高。
1．细节理解题。根据第一段“I pressed "play" t listen back. All I heard was a little kid talking. My immediate reactin was t assume I was listening t smene else's recrding. But that was my vice. I realised there was smething strange abut me.”可知，作者录完音后，按下“播放”键来听，奇怪地听到一个小孩在说话。作者的第一反应是以为在听别人的录音，但那是作者的声音。由此可知，作者感到奇怪是因为自己的声音小，或听到一个小孩在说话，或是感觉听到的不是自己期望的。故答案为：Because her vice was different frm what she had expected. Or: Because all she heard was a little kid talking. Or: Because f her little vice.
2．段落大意题。根据第二段“My little vice has made me feel really shy. And my shyness has caused me t avid attending events, nt make imprtant cnnectins, and keep my ideas t myself. As a shy persn, wrking frm hme, hiding behind my cmputer was brilliant. But the mre time I spent hidden away, the mre my cmfrt zne shrank（缩小）.” 可知作者的声音小，使作者害羞，害羞使作者不参加活动，不和别人交流。作者越隐藏自己，舒适区就越小。这些都说明了害羞使作者隐藏，远离了别人，给作者带来了坏影响。故答案为：Her shyness had a/an（bad） influence/effect/impact n her（life）. Or: Her shyness kept her hidden away. Or: Her shyness kept her away frm ther peple.
3．词义猜测题。上句提到“The wrld needs a mixture f persnalities. Success is nt just abut wh can shut the ludest. The wrld needs quieter peple, t.”表明作者感悟到这个世界需个性。成功不只是谁喊得声最大。世界也需要更安静的人。根据“That day I chse t stp hiding”可知作者选择不再躲藏，接受自己的害羞。embrace原意是“拥抱”，此处指“接受，迎接”，故答案为：Accept. Or: Welcme.
4．细节理解题。根据最后一段“Then I created the Shy and Mighty Sciety, a space fr shy peple like me t shine, and in the prcess f helping thers, I culd als push myself frward,”可知作者创建Shy and Mighty Sciety是为了给像自己一样害羞的人发光的空间，在帮助别人的过程中，也可以推动自己一点点前进。故答案为：T help shy peple（t shine） and push herself frward. Or: T help ther shy peple and herself.
5．推理判断题。作者创建Shy and Mighty Sciety是为了给像自己一样害羞的人发光的空间，所以作为这个组织的负责人应该是组织活动或分享克服害羞的经验，用多种形式鼓励他人战胜害羞、增加自信、提高社交技能。故答案可以是：I will rganize a speech cntest s that they can walk ut f their cmfrt zne and becme mre cnfident. Or: I will share my experience with them, telling them hw I handle my shyness. Or: I will encurage them t take part in varius activities t imprve their scial skills.
