Growing pains and gains
It's not easy to grow up. Actually it's far from easy. Growing up can be a real "pain" for some of us. We are always doing things that someone else makes us do and aren't allowed to do all the things we like. Sometimes we feel trapped, sometimes we are fearful, and sometimes we just don't understand why we can't stay young forever. When we look back on all the hardships in life with a positive attitude (态度), we realize that all of our growing pains actually turn into growing gains!
As a young girl my parents forced my sisters and me to do so many things that I never liked. They made me learn to play the violin and then the piano. At that time I hated music, just because it was what they wanted me to do. But looking back now, I am so glad that my parents encouraged me to take music lessons. Music has enriched my life in so many ways. I realize that my parents and teachers were always pushing me along, not because they wanted me to suffer but because they wanted me to succeed in life. They've always wanted me to have a better life than they did themselves.
Every moment of our lives we are either living or dying, so live life to its fullest! We are all going to experience growing pains, but they are just small pains in life. They might seem so huge at the time but we must be strong. Think about how we would feel if we had no fear and live life like that. The future is ours! A little hard work and sweat never hurt anyone! If we realize that these pains are just small bumps (凸块) on our road to success we will realize that our growing pains are actually growing gains!
（1）According to Paragraph 1, we learn that when we are young,         .
A.life is full of joy
B.life is easy for us
C.we know we can stay young forever
D.we sometimes can't do things we like
（2）When the author was young, she was forced by her parents to        .
A.take music lessons
B.turn gains into pains
C.look back on hardships
D.live a successful life by suffering a lot
（3）What can be inferred from the last paragraph?
A.Growing pains are necessary for us to grow up.
B.We all have to experience growing pains.
C.A little hard work and sweat are harmful to us.
D.Life without fear is a better choice for us.

"We give our girls the power (力量) to believe in themselves, go to college, and become tomorrow's leaders," says Felicia Gibson Jaycox, the founder (创立者) and chief executive officer of The Power of You Teens (POYT). The organization is based in Harlem, a historic African-American neighborhood in New York City.
Founded in 2014, POYT offers educational chances and positive role models for teenage girls growing up in Harlem. These "Power Girls" take part in dance, summer camp, and STEAM education (Science, Technology, Engineering, Arts, and Mathematics), among other programs. The purpose, according to the group, is to empower teenage girls to help them "dream big and to inspire them to achieve the most that they are capable of."
POYT held its sixth yearly Empowerment Event in the fall of 2019 in New York City. The theme of "Girl Boss" encouraged girls to show their inner boss spirit. Miss Teen USA Kaliegh Garris was the keynote speaker.
Kaliegh said that she and other beauty competition winners are helping to reshape traditional images of beauty and showing that women of color are not just beautiful — they also are driven, wise women whom little girls can look up to.
I asked Ashley McFarlin Buie, POYT co-director, what inspired founder and CEO Felicia Gibson to start the organization. Gibson saw the plight that girls of color are in. For some historical reasons, many girls of color are growing up in terrible neighborhoods. They seldom see people like themselves showed positively in movies, books, TV shows, and other media.
"Powerful girls grow up to be dependable and confident women, preparing for their futures as creative leaders," Buie said. POYT centers on saving the mind, body, and spirit of Black girls through love and support, she added.
What do the girls get out of the group? "We offer chances," Buie said, "to break barriers (屏障)."
（1）What do we know about POYT?
A.It is run by teenage girls.
B.It was started about 6 years ago.
C.It provides services all around America.
D.It was first started in African-American neighborhoods.
（2）What did the 2019 Empowerment Event mainly want to do?
A.Speak for women of color.
B.Change people's traditional ideas of beauty.
C.Call on girls to be positive role models.
D.Encourage girls to go into business in the future.
（3）What does the underlined word "plight" in Paragraph 5 probably mean?
A.Sad feeling.
B.Difficult task.
C.Bad situation.
D.Uncertain future.
（4）What is the best title for this text ?
A.Dream big
B.Power Girls
C.Teenage Power
D.Breaking barriers

Amy Zhang, aged 1, knows her parents have been pushing her to get her driver's license. Yet the college senior has no intention of getting it. A driver's license always struck her as a symbol that she was growing up. "I want to have independence and be an adult. But I didn't want to leave my childhood behind." she says. Contrary to the popular belief in the 1980s that a driver's license was a marker of independence, Zhang's viewpoint is increasingly common. When it comes to becoming an adult, more American adolescents now say "Don't rush me".
Many educators and parents view this slowdown with concern. They see a generation of young people growing up ill-prepared for life. Teachers say more students seem unable to function without their parents. And parents realize their 20-year-old hardly know how to do the laundry, and seems uninterested in driving anywhere.
But other researchers argue that the change in youth behavior reflects a reasonable adaptation to a culture and society changed from former generations. Instead of simply growing up more slowly, they are redefining what it means to transform into an adult. It is natural that people would start to grow up "slower".
Some researchers have noticed something more fundamental—a change in the definition of adulthood itself. For many young people today, becoming an adult has less to do with external markers—the house, the marriage, the job—than with how they feel internally. It's the acceptance of oneself, making independent decisions, and financial independence. Kelly Williams says in her best-selling book, "These individual actions add up to a generation that is different."
Members of this age group today tend to make decisions about work, education, parenthood with care, and when they are ready. They are more politically active, engage in more volunteer work and more connected globally than former generations. Indeed, many of the decisions young people make today are less about adulthood than about the world they are inheriting.
（1）What can be concluded from Amy Zhang's case?
A.More American adolescents lack a broader vision.
B.American adolescents seem in no hurry to be an adult.
C.More young people don't accept American car culture.
D.American parents are too strict with their children.
（2）What challenge are the young Americans facing according to Para 2?
A.Failing to express their concerns timely.
B.Losing curiosity about the world.
C.Lacking essential daily skills.
D.Being tired of traditional education.
（3）What's the new marker of adulthood in some researchers' view?
A.How a person feels inside.
B.A happy marriage.
C.A successful and highly-paid job.
D.How much property they own.
（4）What's the best title for the passage?
A.Where the new generation is to go?
B.How Americans interpret adulthood?
C.What helps youth be independent?
D.Why adolescents say “Don't rush me"?

    Happy birthday! Do birthdays really make people happy? Of course they do. Birthdays celebrate the day we were born. Besides, that extra candle on the cake suggests another year of growth and maturity (成熟)— or so we hope. We all like to imagine that we're getting wiser and not just older. Most of us enjoy seeing the miracle(奇迹) of growth in others, as well. For instance, seeing our children develop and learn new things makes us feel proud. For Americans, like people in most cultures, growing up is a wonderful process(过程). But growing old? That's a different story.
    Growing old is not exactly pleasant for people in youth-oriented(以年轻人为中心) American culture. Most Americans like to look young,act young and feel young. As the old saying goes, "You're as young as you feel." Older people joke about how many years young they are, rather than how many years old. People in some countries value the aged as a source of experience and wisdom. But Americans seem to favor those that are young, or at least "young at heart."
    Many older Americans find the "golden years" to be anything but golden. Economically, "senior citizens" often struggle just to get by. Retirement(退休) at age 65 brings a sharp decrease in personal income. Social security(安全) benefits usually cannot make up the difference. Older people may suffer from poor nutrition(营养), medical care and housing. Some even experience age discrimination. In 1987, American sociologist Pat Moore dressed up like an older person and wandered city streets. She was often treated rudely — even cheated and robbed. However, dressed as a young person, she received much more respect.
    Unfortunately, the elderly population in America is increasing fast. Why? People are living longer. Fewer babies are being born. And middle-aged "baby boomers" are rapidly entering the groups of the elderly. America may soon be a place where wrinkles(皱纹) are "in". Marketing experts are already noticing this growing group of consumers.
（1）Growing up is a wonderful thing because ___________.
A.people can celebrate their birthdays
B.people can become more mature and wiser
C.people can receive many presents
D.people will feel younger at heart
（2）We can infer from the second paragraph that _______.
A.young people lack experience and wisdom
B.American older people often joke about their old age
C.American culture is very young
D.different countries have different opinions on the old age
（3）The underlined sentence (in Paragraph 3) means "_____."
A.The golden years can make the old earn lots of money and receive good medical care
B.The old people in America are leading a hard life without good nutrition, medical care or housing
C.The old in America have to retire at the age of 65
D.American social security benefits are not good
（4）From the last paragraph we know that the underlined word "in" can be replaced by _____.
A.serious
B.bad
C.disappearing slowly
D.growing fast
V. 任务型阅读
You're growing up. That means you're probably experiencing lots of changes, all at once. Your body is changing. It might even seem as if your entire self is changing. It can be confusing and even scary. 44.      . And it's good!
Growing up means that you can do more, learn more, and start to make your mark on the world. In order for that to happen, your body produces chemicals called hormones that help both body and mind grow. Hormone levels change constantly, rising and falling.
45.      . But it's partly to blame for intense emotions, surprising reactions, and mood swings.
Because of the way your brain develops, it is somewhat ruled by emotion now and through your teen years. As a result, growing up can seem like an emotional roller coaster!
46.      
Take care of yourself. If you eat right, sleep enough, and get good exercise, your brain will be much more able to deal with the stress.
47.      . When you feel your moods swinging or you're upset, or confused, some quiet time will allow you to gather your thoughts and get calmer.
Practice relaxing your body and take a deep breath when you wake up and when you go to bed. 48.      . Plus, when stuff happens during the day, you'll be able to calm yourself quickly with a deep breath or two before you react. Your body is changing.
A. Work out regularly to keep physically fit.
B. Take a time-out.
C. But the truth is, it happens to every teen.
D. It will help you fall asleep—and start the morning right.
E. Here are a few things you can do to make the ride smoother.
F. This changing is needed for your body's development.
G. Usually, these feelings settle down when you realize what is going on.

（1）考查细节理解。根据第一段中的“We are always doing things that someone else makes us do and aren't allowed to do all the things we like.”我们总是在做别人让我们做的事情，他们不允许我们做所有我们喜欢做的事情。可知，小时候，有时我们不能做自己喜欢的事情。故选D。
（2）考查推理判断。根据第二段中的“At that time I hated music, just because it was what they wanted me to do.及But looking back now, I am so glad that my parents encouraged me to take music lessons.”那时候我讨厌音乐，只是因为那是他们想让我做的。但是现在回想起来，我很高兴我的父母鼓励我上音乐课。可推知，作者小时候，她的父母强迫她上音乐课。故选A。
（3）考查推理判断。根据最后一段中的“The future is ours! A little hard work and sweat never hurt anyone! If we realize that these pains are just small bumps (凸块) on our road to success we will realize that our growing pains are actually growing gains!”未来是我们的!一点点的努力和汗水不会伤害任何人!如果我们意识到这些痛苦只是小疙瘩，在我们的成功之路,我们会意识到我们的成长的痛苦实际上是不断增长的收益!可知，成长中的烦恼是我们成功路上的一些小小的绊脚石，它们终将成为我们成长中的收获，因此这些烦恼对我们的成长是很有必要的。故选A。

（1）根据第二段中的“Founded in 2014, POYT offers educational chances and positive role models for teenage girls growing up in Harlem.”POYT这个组织建立于2014年，大约六年前，故选B。
（2）根据第三段中的“POYT held its sixth yearly Empowerment Event in the fall of 2019 in New York City. The theme of ‘Girl Boss’ encouraged girls to show their inner boss spirit.”POYT举行第六届授权活动，其主题是“Girl Boss”，目的就是鼓励女孩们展现内在的领导（老板）精神，也就是鼓励她们参与商业，故选D。
（3）根据第五段中的“For some historical reasons, many girls of color are growing up in terrible neighborhoods. They seldom see people like themselves showed positively in movies, books, TV shows, and other media.”由于一些历史原因，许多有色人种的女孩在恶劣的环境中长大。她们很少在电影、书籍、电视节目和其他媒体中看到像自己这样的人的正面形象。可知，这里在解释创始人创建POYT的原因，划线词所在句之后给出的都可以看作是有色女孩面临的困境，如成长环境差等，plight一词所指的应该就是“困境、困难”。故选C。
（4）根据第二段中的“The purpose, according to the group, is to empower teenage girls to help them ‘dream big and to inspire them to achieve the most that they are capable of.’”据该组织称，此举的目的是帮助十几岁的女孩“拥有远大的梦想，并激励她们实现自己最大的能力”。可知，文章围绕POYT这一组织，讲述了他们培养青少年女孩使她们敢于逐梦、做到想做的事情，即培养出powerful girls，故选B。

【解析】本文是一篇议论文。通过Amy Zhang不想学驾照，不想离开童年的例子说明越来越多的美国青少年不急着长大。文章分析了这种现象的原因，人们对此现象的不同观点及现在年轻人观念的改变。
（1）考查推理判断。根据第一段中的“'I want to have independence and be an adult. But I didn't want to leave my childhood behind. 'she says. Contrary to the popular belief in the 1980s that a driver's license was a marker of independence, Zhang's viewpoint is increasingly common. When it comes to becoming an adult, more American adolescents now say 'Don't rush me'. “可知Amy Zhang不想学驾照，不想离开童年。这种观点现在越来越普遍，更多的美国青少年不让家长催着长大。从这一例子可判断出美国的青少年似乎并不急于成为成年人，故选B。
（2）考查推理判断。根据第二段中的”They see a generation of young people growing up ill-prepared for life."年轻一代在成长过程中对生活准备不足。下文列举了越来越多的学生似乎无法在没有父母的情况下正常学习，20岁的孩子几乎不知道如何洗衣服，对开车去任何地方都不感兴趣等现象，这些都说明年轻一代缺乏必要的日常技能，故选C。
（3）考查细节理解。根据倒数第二段中的“For many young people today, becoming an adult has less to do with external markers—the house, the marriage, the job—than with how they feel internally. It's the acceptance of oneself, making independent decisions, and financial independence.”对今天的许多年轻人来说，成为成年人与外界的因素(房子、婚姻、工作)关系不大，而与他们内心的感受关系很大，长大意味着接受自己，能做独立的决定，并在经济上独立。故选A。
（4）考查主旨大意。文章开头通过Amy Zhang不想学驾照，不想离开童年的例子引出了more American adolescents now say “Don't rush me"现象，下文分析了其原因。Why adolescents say “Don't rush me"?概括了文章主旨，又能吸引读者，适合作为标题。故选D。

45.根据空前“In order for that to happen, your body produces chemicals called hormones that help both body and mind grow.

48.根据空前“Practice relaxing your body and deep breathing when you wake up and when you go to bed”当你醒来，当你去睡觉时，练习放松你的身体，深呼吸。所以此段主要说明起床和睡觉时练习放松身体，会有助于睡眠后第二天的早起，所以此处为顺承关系句，D. It will help you fall asleep------and start the morning right.“它能帮助你入睡并且拥有一个良好的早晨。”符合语境，故选D。

VII. 语法填空
.【答案】 Growing；makes；that；trapped；hardships；actually；to do；because；in；a
【解析】本文是一篇夹叙夹议文，作者结合自己的亲身经历告诉我们所有成长的烦恼最终都会成为成长的收获。
（1）句意：对我们中的一些人来说，长大是一种真正的“痛苦”。此处用动名词作主语，表示一种经常性的动作。故填Growing。
（2）句意：我们总是在做别人让我们做的事情，而且我们不被允许做所有我们喜欢做的事情。在that引导的定语从句中缺少谓语动词，又因为从句的主语是someone，全文的基本时态是一般现在时，所以谓语动词用第三人称单数形式。故填makes。
（3）句意：我们总是在做别人让我们做的事情，而且我们不被允许做所有我们喜欢做的事情。       we like是定语从句，先行词是all the things，从句中缺宾语。当指物的先行词由all修饰时，定语从句只能由that引导。故填that。
（4）句意：有时我们感到被困，有时我们感到恐惧，有时我们就是不明白为什么我们不能永远年轻。作系动词feel的表语用形容词，trapped是过去分词转化而来的形容词，表示“被困的、陷入困境的”。故填trapped。
（5）句意：当我们以一种积极的态度回顾生活中的种种艰辛时，我们才会意识到，所有成长的烦恼实际上都变成了成长的收获！根据提示，hardship指的是前文提到的我们在生活中遇到的种种困难，是可数名词，前面有all修饰，故应用复数形式，故填hardships。
（6）句意：当我们以一种积极的态度回顾生活中的种种艰辛时，我们才会意识到，所有成长的烦恼实际上都变成了成长的收获！turn into是谓语动词，所以该空应该用副词形式作状语。故填actually。
（7）句意：作为一个小女孩，我的父母强迫我和我的姐妹做了很多我不喜欢的事情。force sb. to do sth.固定短语，“强迫某人做某事”，故填to do。
（8）句意：那时候我讨厌音乐，只是因为那是他们想让我做的。前半句和后半句都是成分完整的句子，但两句之间缺少连词；又根据前后的句意，可知，后半句在解释前半句“我讨厌音乐”的原因。故填because。
（9）句意：音乐在很多方面丰富了我的生活。in many ways“在很多方面”，故填in。
（10）句意：我意识到他们一直希望我过得比他们自己好。have a...life，固定短语，“过一种……样的生活”。故填a。
【点评】本题考点涉及非谓语动词，时态，主谓一致，定语从句，名词，副词，状语从句，介词以及冠词等多个知识点的考查，是一篇人生感悟类阅读，要求考生在理解细节信息的基础上，进一步根据上下文的逻辑关系，并结合相关语法知识，进行分析推理，从而写出正确的单词形式。
VIII.【答案】 ①在violin前加the；②friend →friends；③that →what；④把felt后的in去掉；⑤look →looking；⑥在take前加to；⑦are →is；⑧smaller →small；⑨realized →realize；⑩actual →actually
【解析】本文是一篇记叙文，讲述了成长的痛苦。每个人都要经历成长的痛苦，这只是生活中的小痛苦。如果我们意识到这些痛苦只是通往成功路上的小障碍，我们就会意识到成长的痛苦其实是成长的收获。
①句意：至于我，从我童年开始，我的父母就让我学习拉小提琴，所以我没有时间和其他朋友一起演奏。play the violin固定短语，“拉小提琴”。故在violin前加the。
②形容词other“其他的”，后面跟名词复数，故把friend改成friends。
③句意：这是他们想让我做的。此处was后面是表语从句，从句的谓语动词wanted缺少宾语，由引导词充当，但that只起引导作用，而what能其双重作用，故that改成what。
④句意：我感到疑惑。此处feel是连系动词，意思是“觉得”，后面用形容词作表语。故把felt后的in去掉。
⑤句意：现在回想起来，我很高兴我的父母鼓励我上音乐课。此处句子主语I和look之间是主动关系，是现在分词作时间状语。故look改成looking。
⑥句意：现在回想起来，我很高兴我的父母鼓励我上音乐课。encourage sb. to do sth.固定短语，“鼓励某人做某事”，是动词不定式作宾语补足语。故在take前加to。
⑦句意：每个人都要经历成长的痛苦，这只是生活中的小痛苦。不定代词Everybody作主语，后面的谓语动词用单数形式，故把are改成is。
⑧句意：句意：每个人都要经历成长的痛苦，这只是生活中的小痛苦。此处不存在比较，所以应该用形容词原级，故smaller改成small。
⑨句意：如果我们意识到这些痛苦只是通往成功路上的小障碍，我们就会意识到成长的痛苦其实是成长的收获。此处是if引导的条件状语从句，主句是一般将来时态，则从句用一般现在时态，且主语是we，故realized改成realize。
⑩句意：如果我们意识到这些痛苦只是通往成功路上的小障碍，我们就会意识到成长的痛苦其实是成长的收获。此处growing现在分词，由副词修饰。故actual改成actually。
【点评】本题考点涉及冠词，名词，表语从句，介词，非谓语动词，主谓一致，形容词以及副词等多个知识点的考查，是一篇故事类阅读，覆盖面广，综合性强，难度较大，区分度高。
