Getting through four years of college is a challenge for anyone, but for kids like Caleb Simmons, it seemed nearly impossible.
Caleb didn’t even get into the University of Texas at Dallas the first time he applied. Once he did get in, though, his entire life seemed to collapse around him just as he was trying to find his footing at school. When his family lost their house during his freshman year, Caleb found himself homeless.
“At some point, I couldn’t go to class. I really was about to just drop out,” he said. “We lost our house. I had nowhere to stay. I had no car at the time.”
Finally, out of sheer desperation, Caleb turned to the school administration for help. That’s when he met Joann Chapin, a student solutions specialist on campus who made it her mission to help the young man find his footing. And on weekends and school breaks, Caleb spent his time with Joann and her children, growing so close that they now consider one another family.
Four years after hitting rock bottom, Caleb not only graduated, but he was asked to deliver a speech to his classmates at graduation! He used the opportunity to thank his new “mom”, Joann, who sat front and center in his family section that day.
During Caleb’s graduation speech he called upon those dark days early on to convey a simple message to his peers: No matter how much poverty, or unfortunate circumstances a person can be put in, they can still make a better life for themselves. Opportunities can happen if you go for them.
His next goal is to work for the college that helped him through his toughest times so that he can encourage teens living in poverty to reach their goals, as he did.
4. Why was it nearly impossible for Caleb to graduate from college
A. He was abandoned by his family.
B. He was on bad terms with his classmates.
C. He lost shelter and was trapped in poverty.
D. He failed to attend all the required classes.
5. Which of the following can best describe Caleb
A. Determined and humorous. B. Grateful and sympathetic.
C. Committed and creative. D. Realistic and ambitious.
6. What is the best title for the text
A. Step out, Get Rid of Suffering
B. Give a Hand, Make a Difference
C. Build up Confidence, Get Through Difficulties
D. Overcome Homelessness, Graduate with Honors
C
Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy recently declared children’s mental health is a national crisis.
In December 2021, Dr. Murthy issued a report to highlight the additional pressures the economic depression had put on the country’s youth, and the urgent need to address this. The impact of this crisis is far-reaching, and new research shows that it’s affecting parents’ well-being, plus their ability to succeed at work and provide for their families.
“On Our Sleeves, a national movement that aims to break shame around children’s mental health, surveyed more than 3,000 working parents across the US and found that 8 in 10 parents have been very concerned about their child’s mental health and development or behavior in the past two years. Children’s mental health concerns have been hiding in plain sight for many years, surrounded by confusion and shame,” says Marti Bledsoe Post, the director of On Our Sleeves.
The survey found that 53% of working parents have missed work at least once per month to deal with their children’s mental health. And 71% of parents said issues with their child’s mental or emotional well-being made the stresses of work much more difficult to cope with.
“Employers need to know that many of their employees are struggling and it is impinging their work as a result,” says Marti. “Our mission with On Our Sleeves is to provide every family in America access to free, evidence-based educational resources. We see this study as incredibly important in starting the conversation and providing solutions for working families.”
As Marti points out, for some parents, taking a child to weekly therapy (心理治疗) appointments and attending meetings at school consume a lot of time. These parents should be helped.
7. What do parents care about most at present
A. Economic effect. B. Pressure on children.
C. Children’s mental health. D. Children’s education.
8. What does paragraph 4 show about kids’ mental health
A. It is a main social problem. B. It makes doctors confused.
C. It’s difficult for parents to handle. D. It impacts on their parents’ work.
9. What does the underlined word “impinging” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Selecting. B. Judging.
C. Affecting. D. Doubting.
10. What can we learn from the text
A. Most children’s mental health is good.
B. The economy has few effects on the youth.
C. Parents’ health can affect kids, mental health.
D. It’s urgent to solve kids’ mental problems.
第二节 语句排序(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
11. 将下列几个部分(A、B、C、D和E)按题号排序,构成一个符合逻辑的完整语篇。
A. Brusatte said that becoming smaller was “a common way that mammals deal with climate change”. He added, “That’s not to say every species of mammal would get smaller, but it seems to be a common survival trick of mammals when temperatures rise pretty quickly. Which does raise the question: If temperatures do rise really quickly, might humans become shorter, might humans get smaller And I think that’s certainly reasonable.”
B. Lister doubts that humans will be shorter as the climate heats. “We are not really controlled by natural selection,” he said. “If that was going to happen, you’d need to find large people dying before they could reproduce because of climate warming. That is not happening in today’s world. We wear clothes, we have got heating, we have got air conditioning if it is too hot.”
C. “The climate crisis may lead the human race to shrink in size, as mammals (哺乳动物) with smaller frames appear better able to deal with rising global temperatures,” a leading fossil expert has said. Prof Steve Brusatte, a professor at the University of Edinburgh also notes that animals in warmer parts of the world today are often smaller than those in colder areas.
D. Another study has showed that researchers studying human remains over the past million years have also suggested that temperature is a major predictor of body size change, while scientists studying red deer have said that warmer winters in northern Europe and Scandinavia may lead to the body size of these animals becoming smaller.
E. However, not all experts agree that rising temperatures cause mammals to shrink. Prof Adrian Lister, of the Natural History Museum in London, said the relationship shown by the recent human remains study is weak, while the strong relationship between temperature and mammal body size may often be down to the availability of food and resources.

Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy recently declared children’s mental health is a national crisis.
In December 2021, Dr. Murthy issued a report to highlight the additional pressures the economic depression had put on the country’s youth, and the urgent need to address this. The impact of this crisis is far-reaching, and new research shows that it’s affecting parents’ well-being, plus their ability to succeed at work and provide for their families.
“On Our Sleeves, a national movement that aims to break shame around children’s mental health, surveyed more than 3,000 working parents across the US and found that 8 in 10 parents have been very concerned about their child’s mental health and development or behavior in the past two years. Children’s mental health concerns have been hiding in plain sight for many years, surrounded by confusion and shame,” says Marti Bledsoe Post, the director of On Our Sleeves.
The survey found that 53% of working parents have missed work at least once per month to deal with their children’s mental health And 71% of parents said issues with their child’s mental or emotional well-being made the stresses of work much more difficult to cope with.
“Employers need to know that many of their employees are struggling and it is impinging their work as a result,” says Marti. “Our mission with On Our Sleeves is to provide every family in America access to free, evidence-based educational resources. We see this study as incredibly important in starting the conversation and providing solutions for working families.”
As Marti points out, for some parents, taking a child to weekly therapy (心理治疗) appointments and attending meetings at school consume a lot of time. These parents should be helped.
7. What do parents care about most at present
A. Economic effect. B. Pressure on children.
C. Children’s mental health. D. Children’s education.
8. What does paragraph 4 show about kids’ mental health
A. It is a main social problem. B. It makes doctors confused.
C. It’s difficult for parents to handle. D. It impacts on their parents’ work.
9. What does the underlined word “impinging” in paragraph 5 mean
A. Selecting. B. Judging.
C. Affecting. D. Doubting.
10. What can we learn from the text
A. Most children’s mental health is good.
B. The economy has few effects on the youth.
C. Parents’ health can affect kids, mental health.
D. It’s urgent to solve kids’ mental problems.
【答案】7. C 8. D 9. C 10. D
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章主要介绍的是Dr. Vivek Murthy的研究发现,儿童心理健康问题已经成为全国性的危机,严重影响到了父母的工作,呼吁人们帮助这些父母。
【7题详解】
细节理解题。根据第三段中的“On Our Sleeves, a national movement that aims to break shame around children’s mental health, surveyed more than 3,000 working parents across the US and found that 8 in 10 parents have been very concerned about their child’s mental health and development or behavior in the past two years.(On Our Sleeves是一项旨在打破人们对儿童心理健康的羞耻感的全国性运动,该运动对美国3000多名在职父母进行了调查,发现80%的父母在过去两年中非常关心孩子的心理健康和发展或行为)”可知,调查发现10个人中有8人一直担心自己的孩子的精神健康和发展问题。由此可知,目前家长们最关注的是孩子的精神健康问题。故选C项。
【8题详解】
推理判断题。根据第四段“The survey found that 53% of working parents have missed work at least once per month to deal with their children’s mental health. And 71% of parents said issues with their child’s mental or emotional well-being made the stresses of work much more difficult to cope with.(调查发现,53%的在职父母每月至少有一次旷工来处理孩子的心理健康问题。71%的父母表示,孩子的精神或情感健康问题使他们更难应对工作压力)”可知,调查发现53%的每月至少旷工一次处理孩子的心理问题,还有71%的家长认为孩子的心理健康问题使得自己的工作难以应对。由此推知,家长们的工作受到很大影响。故选D项。
【9题详解】
词句猜测题。根据划线单词前的“Employers need to know that many of their employees are struggling(雇主需要知道他们的许多员工都在苦苦挣扎)”可知,许多员工在苦苦挣扎,结合划线单词后的as a result可知,前后为因果关系。由此推知,员工的工作因此而受到“影响”,所以划线单词的意思是“影响”。故选C项。
【10题详解】
推理判断题。根据首段中的“Surgeon General Dr. Vivek Murthy recently declared children’s mental health is a national crisis.(外科医生Vivek Murthy博士最近宣布,儿童的心理健康是一场全国性的危机)”以及第二段中的“The impact of this crisis is far-reaching, and new research shows that it’s affecting parents’ well-being, plus their ability to succeed at work and provide for their families.(这场危机的影响是深远的,新的研究表明,它正在影响父母的健康,以及他们在工作中取得成功和养家糊口的能力)”可知,儿童心理健康问题成为全国性的危机,这严重影响到了儿童父母的工作以及养家糊口的能力,全文对这一现象的研究分析。由此推知,解决儿童心理健康问题是迫在眉睫。故选D项。
第二节 语句排序(共5小题;每小题2分,满分10分)
11. 将下列几个部分(A、B、C、D和E)按题号排序,构成一个符合逻辑的完整语篇。
A. Brusatte said that becoming smaller was “a common way that mammals deal with climate change”. He added, “That’s not to say every species of mammal would get smaller, but it seems to be a common survival trick of mammals when temperatures rise pretty quickly. Which does raise the question: If temperatures do rise really quickly, might humans become shorter, might humans get smaller And I think that’s certainly reasonable.”
B. Lister doubts that humans will be shorter as the climate heats. “We are not really controlled by natural selection,” he said. “If that was going to happen, you’d need to find large people dying before they could reproduce because of climate warming. That is not happening in today’s world. We wear clothes, we have got heating, we have got air conditioning if it is too hot.”
C. “The climate crisis may lead the human race to shrink in size, as mammals (哺乳动物) with smaller frames appear better able to deal with rising global temperatures,” a leading fossil expert has said. Prof Steve Brusatte, a professor at the University of Edinburgh also notes that animals in warmer parts of the world today are often smaller than those in colder areas.
D. Another study has showed that researchers studying human remains over the past million years have also suggested that temperature is a major predictor of body size change, while scientists studying red deer have said that warmer winters in northern Europe and Scandinavia may lead to the body size of these animals becoming smaller.
E. However, not all experts agree that rising temperatures cause mammals to shrink. Prof Adrian Lister, of the Natural History Museum in London, said the relationship shown by the recent human remains study is weak, while the strong relationship between temperature and mammal body size may often be down to the availability of food and resources.
【答案】CADEB
【解析】
【导语】本文是一篇说明文。文章介绍了有些科学家认为气候变化可能导致人类体型缩小,以应对气温上升的变化,也有一些科学家对此表示怀疑。
【详解】1. 选项句意翻译:
A. Brusatte说变小是“哺乳动物应对气候变化的一种常见方式”。他补充道:“这并不是说每一种哺乳动物都会变小,但这似乎是哺乳动物在气温迅速上升时常见的生存技巧。这就提出了一个问题:如果气温真的上升得很快,人类是否会变得更矮,是否会变得更小?我认为这当然是合理的。”
B. Lister不相信随着气候变暖,人类会变得更矮。他说:“我们并不是真的受自然选择的控制。如果发生这种情况,你需要发现由于气候变暖,体型大的人在繁殖之前死亡。这在今天的世界是不会发生的。我们穿衣服,我们有暖气,如果天气太热,我们还有空调。”
C. 一位著名化石专家表示:“气候危机可能导致人类体型缩小,因为体型较小的哺乳动物似乎更能应对不断上升的全球气温。”爱丁堡大学的Steve Brusatte教授也指出,如今世界上温暖地区的动物通常比寒冷地区的动物要小。
D. 另一项研究显示,研究过去100万年人类遗骸的研究人员也表示温度是体型变化的主要预测因素,而研究红鹿的科学家则表示北欧和斯堪的纳维亚半岛的暖冬可能会导致这些动物的体型变小。
E. 然而,并不是所有的专家都认为气温上升会导致哺乳动物体型缩小。伦敦自然历史博物馆的Adrian Lister教授说,最近人类遗骸的研究表明的关联很微弱,而温度和哺乳动物体型之间的强关联可能往往归结于食物和资源的可获得性。
2. 文章线索分析:
根据各选项意思可推知,C项直接说明“气候危机可能导致人类体型缩小”,提到Brusatte教授同意这一论断,引出文章的话题,适合作为第一个部分;A项从Brusatte教授的角度解释“气候危机可能导致人类体型缩小”这一论断背后的论据,衔接前文,适合作为第二个部分;D项用另一项研究进一步为“气候危机可能导致人类体型缩小”这一论断提供支持,对前文进行延伸,适合作为第三个部分;E项提出有些专家对“气候危机可能导致人类体型缩小”这一论断持怀疑态度,说明Lister教授对相关研究结果的解读,和前文形成转折,适合作为第四个部分;B项从Lister教授的角度驳斥“气候危机可能导致人类体型缩小”这一论断,对前文进行延伸,适合作为第五个部分。

【答案】One possible version:
Dear Jack,
I am so sorry to know that you have encountered some great challenges in the process of learning Chinese. Hence, I’d like to put forward some suggestions, hoping they could be of some help to you.
To start with, you need questions. Chinese is exceptionally complicated in its pronunciation as well as handwriting. Therefore, you’d better ask more questions about why the character is written or sounds like this. If you can find the relationship between them, you will find it not that difficult to learn. Then, you are supposed to apply what you’ve learnt. Only by listening and reading more could you speak and write Chinese fluently and freely. You can search some accessible videos about Chinese culture to watch. What’s more, it’s also a good idea to attempt to write some short stories or poems in Chinese, which is beneficial to experience the beauty of Chinese culture.
In conclusion, where there is a will, there is a way. I hold a firm belief that you can overcome the current challenges and learn Chinese well.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
