写作一
Good morning,everyone!It's a great honor for me to stand here to make a speech.Today,my topic is "Let's build
a green city".
Nowadays big cities are faced with more and more serious environmental problems,which has a great influence on
people's daily life.It's high time we should do something to make a change.
As students,we can do our part and build a green city by leading a low-carbon life.First,we should save water
and electricity.Besides,we can reduce carbon emission by riding or walking to school.What's more,we are supposed
to use more recycled products.Only when we work hand in hand can we build a green city!
That's all.Thank you.
写作二
Paragraph 1:
Upon arrival,we entered the house quickly to look for Q but didn't find him.Then,we hurried out and searched
the woods nearby,thinking Q might be sleeping or catching mice somewhere there.However,we still had no luck and
returned,disappointed.To our amazement,two days later,Q reached our new house.He somehow found his way back.
But his leg was wounded because of the broken glass.
Paragraph 2:
We quickly took Q to the doctor.In the clinic,the doctor said it was no big deal and then handled his
wounds.After we returned home,the cat wasn't in high spirits.Even after he recovered,he just stayed on the sofa,having no
interest in our new home.One day,he escaped to our old house again but later returned.To our joy,gradually,he wandered
around our new house curiously and cheerfully.Finally,he adapted to the new house and our life returned to normal.

You've probably tried easy center-city Beijing rides if you enjoy riding. Now it's time to level up your rides so they will take you out into the countryside and attractive mountains.
Death Valley
Approximate distance:100km loop(环线)
It may sound terrifying but Beijing's cyclists named this northern route "Death Valley"because of the huge tomb it passes, not the number of on-road accidents it has seen. In reality, it's the closest,mostly car-free loop to the city center and great for really stretching your legs.
Tuesday/Thursday TTT
Approximate distance: 54km loop
While it's not particularly scenic, there are few traffic lights, and the roads are not too busy and have adequate bike lanes on each side, making it a relatively trouble-free ride. If you'd like to ride with group, seek out early morning Beijing rider groups and join them on Tuesday and Thursday mornings at 5am or 6 am depending on the season.
The Verse
Approximate distance:120km loop
It passes a cafe with good(although expensive)food and even high-end accommodation, but the best part is their super welcoming attitude towards cyclists. It's a hike that is well worth the effort, as you are rewarded with amazing views of the Great Wall upon arrival and a ride back that is mostly downhill.
Tongzhou Grand Canal Forest Park
Approximate distance:70km loop
This park is the closest place for riders to enjoy the Grand Canal from Beijing. The Grand Canal is a true wonder in China, and one of the greatest civil engineering projects in history. The oldest parts of it date back to the 5th century B.C. It will be a fun ride here.
21. How does the route Death Valley get its name
A. It offers deadly loops for cars.B. It is located in an isolated place.
C. It involves passing a large tomb.D. It witnesses numerous accidents for cyclists.
22. Which of the following covers the shortest distance
A. Death Valley. B. Tuesday/Thursday TTT.
C. The Verse. D. Tongzhou Grand Canal Forest Park:
23. What do the last two routes have in common
A. There are on-road accidents.B. There are some cafes.
C. They have adequate bike lanes.D. They have historical sites.

Angela Guzman was born in Bogotd, Colombia. At the age of 8 she moved to a tiny island in South Florida. The contrast was pretty vast. She didn't speak any English, so she met with lots of challenges. At school, she would get stuck because she couldn't understand or be understood. She thought "Well, everyone understands a picture! Why don't I start drawing to communicate " That was what she did. She tried hard to create pictures to show her meanings exactly, and then she became known as the artist in the classroom,from third grade through her whole years of secondary schooling. Later she chose to study design in college.
When Angela began her work in a big company, she was tasked with designing emojis—the company's very first. At first, she intended to refuse the task because she had no idea what the word meant and what emojis would be used for. Her mentor(导师) said that the emoji was an icon(图标),an image, or a type of illustration, sharing joy, surprise,anger, fear, sorrow,love and so on.
Angela then began to study micro-expressions of humans and simplify or exaggerate (夸大) them in an illustrative manner. For example, the eyebrows make a V in anger and an upside down V in surprise.When she designed object emojis, she often turned to real-life items. She went to the party supply store,buying party poppers(派对烟花) to watch how the colorful paper pieces came out, and how light reflected off them.They were hard to capture, but Angela tried to make it.
Later, the tiny icons Angela and her mentor created were born and soon used by millions of people.When people praised Angela for her emoji design, she replied,"Actually, it's an experience that teaches me a lot. One major thing is empathy(同理心)for communities worldwide, I pay close attention to the symbolism of color and the cultural symbolism overall. I think the cultural questions are important.For example, how do we make sure that every culture, every accent, or every person that speaks to these devices feels included That was something I struggled with early on. This kind of thinking allowed my mind to be inclusive and mindful of everyone who would use the product."
24. What can we learn about Angela's childhood
A. She had a hidden talent for language.
B. She was good at communicating through drawing.
C. She often held views different from her classmates,
D. She was always on the move with her family.
25. How did Angela get inspiration for her emoji design
A. By diving into real life.
B. By referring to some popular emojis.
C. By gaining related knowledge of emojis.
D. By seeking help from experienced people.
26. What mainly led to Angela's success according to Paragraph 4
A. Her mentor guided her in every detail.
B. Her design was inclusive of varied cultures.
C. She introduced color elements to her works.
D. She had a thoughtful attitude towards the poor.
27. Which is the most suitable title for the text
A. What Influence a Mentor Has on a Girl
B. How a Humorous Girl Achieves Success
C. How a Girl Develops into an Emoji Designer
D. What Contributes to the Invention of Emojis
C
Most people often listen to music near bedtime to relax. But can that actually cause your sleep to suffer When sleep researcher Michael Scullin realized that he was waking in the middle of the night with a song stuck in his head, he saw an opportunity. He decided to study how music might affect sleep patterns.
Scullin said,"Everyone knows that music listening feels good. Young adults routinely listen to music near bedtime. Thus, they are easy to experience 'earworms'—involuntary(无意识的)musical imagery.It's a condition where a song or tune will replay over and over in our mind and our brains continue to process music even when none is playing, including apparently while we are asleep."
Scullin's recent study included a survey and a laboratory experiment. The survey involved 209participants who completed a series of surveys on sleep quality, music listening habits and earworm frequency. In the 50-participant experimental study, the research team played three popular songs before bedtime. They randomly assigned participants to listen to the original versions of those songs or the instrumental versions of the songs. And then they used polysomnography(PSG)—a test of sleep-to record the participants' brain waves, heart rates, breathing and more while they were sleeping.
The study showed that people who experience earworms regularly at night are six times as likely tohave poor sleep quality as people who rarely experience earworms."Almost everyone thought music improves sleep, but we have found that those who listen to more music sleep worse,"Scullin said."What's really surprising is that instrumental music leads to worse sleep quality, including greater difficulty falling asleep, more nighttime awakenings, and more time in light stages of sleep. And instrumental music leads to about twice as many earworms."
To get rid of an earworm engaging in cognitive(认知的)activity—fully focusing on a task, helps to distract your brain from earworms if you don't want to totally quit your music hobbies(listening to less music before bed is still encouraged). A previous study found that participants who spent five minutes writing down upcoming tasks before bed slept better.
28. What's the focus of Scullin's study
A. The characteristics of fine music.
B. The categories of people's sleep patterns.
C. The relationship between music listening and sleep.
D. The development of the musical education mechanism.
29. Which of the following can best describe the "earworm" phenomenon
A. People get stuck in the mental imagery of musical repetition.
B. People are particularly fond of a piece of music or tune.
C. People tend to sing a song without realizing it.
D. People rely on certain music to fall asleep.
30. What were the participants asked to do during the study
A. Listen to the same versions of the songs.
B. Pick their favorite songs before bedtime.
C. Use the method to improve sleep quality.
D. Offer some personal information and take a sleep test.
31. Which view would Scullin probably agree on
A. Earworm sufferers are usually sound sleepers.
B. Earworms are least likely to bring about sleeplessness.
C. People should listen to more gentle music before sleep.
D. People should try to avoid instrumental music near bedtime.
D
Gossip(八卦)has long been considered bad for our mental well-being, but it's really not.During the Middle Ages, the word gossip evolved to describe women who supported other women during childbirth. Over time and after a number of spelling changes, the term gossip took on the meaning of a familiar person, a friend, and"anyone engaging in idle talk(闲聊)".There was no derogatory meaning attached to gossip until around the time of the European witch hunts(猎巫运动)in the 16th to18th centuries. At that time, gossip was considered a tool for witches to do something evil. Thus, gossip's bad reputation began.
At the same time, what was ridiculous and hard to understand was that gossip as men's talk spread throughout the 17th and 18th centuries in English coffee houses. The learned men and their male students(there is little evidence of women in coffee houses, unless as servants)went there to demonstrate their intellectual talents. However, the myth that women gossip but men have serious conversations was born then. Today, gossipy women are over-represented in popular images of gossip, but research shows that men and women engage in the same amount of gossiping activity.
New research also damages the impression that gossip is inconsiderable or dangerous women's talk.When interviewed about their experience of gossip at work, men often begin by saying "I'm not one to gossip,but…",and then go on at length to gossip. They may prefer indirect phrases for gossip, such as"shop talk" and"corridor conversations". Rather than asking "What's the gossip " on your return from holiday, men are more likely to ask "What's been going on ". Such expressions may soften the shame associated with being gossipy men. Similarly, words often used to describe people who gossip are"good listeners"and"people with good communication skills".
There is a lot of material advising gossip to be removed in the workplace. Popular ideas of gossip overemphasize the negative judgement made in gossip, but it can be associated with compassion, empathy and noticing suffering. It does not mean that all gossip is good. There are times when gossip can do harm to the reputation of people and organizations. The decision to gossip or not is always a decision related to someone's virtue.
32. What does the underlined word "derogatory"in Paragraph 2 probably mean
A. True. B. Original. C. Negative. D. Exact.
33. What does the author mainly intend to tell us through the examples in Paragraph 4
A. Gossip is very popular among males.
B. Men are often shy in social activities.
C. Gossip can be conveyed in different forms.
D. Men like making friends with gossipy people.
34. Which of the following can best show the author's idea about gossiping
A. It is a double-edged sword.
B. It should be removed in the workplace.
C. Its supporters usually have a bad character.
D. Its disadvantages outweigh its advantages.
35. What's the author's purpose in writing the text
A. To share the strengths of gossip.
B. To remind people to avoid gossiping.
C. To illustrate the origin of the term gossip.
D. To correct people's misunderstanding of gossip.

阅读下面短文，从短文后的选项中选出可以填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余项。
If the idea of going to the office party makes you worried or you're in a stressed state about similarget-togethers, you're not alone. 36 It's part of our nature that we're concerned about things like reputation and status.
There are some psychology findings that you might find comforting. Here's a study that led psychologists to propose something called the "spotlight effect". It is the phenomenon that we tend to think people are paying more attention to us than they really are. 37 Then researchers estimated how many people in the room noticed the T-shirts.
It turned out that the participants had massively overestimated just how many people noticed their embarrassing clothes.38 Remember that when you're upset about what to wear or what to say,most people are wrapped up in themselves,not watching you as closely as you might think.
39 Constantly monitoring your own words and behaviors will fuel your nerves. And in the worst cases, it will lead you to act more awkwardly. Anything you can do to try to get it out of your head ought to alleviate(缓解) your anxiety.
Further, why not set yourself a small goal of being on the lookout for anyone else seeming uncomfortable or left out There must be people feeling that way, and you could help make their experience more positive. Above all, remember that avoidance never helps anxiety. What's more, don't expect too much of yourself. Pace yourself, and do your best. 40
A. The most effective way is to be strategic.
B. After all, social occasions are an opportunity.
C. In this way, you might have a little fun along the way.
D. Feeling nervous about socializing is incredibly common.
E. Actually, the others just weren't paying that much attention.
F.Indeed, too much self-focus is a major driver of social anxiety.
G.The study involved participants wearing embarrassing T-shirts in a group setting.

阅读下面材料，根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段，使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Our family had lived in our old house near a place called Two Rivers for long. After my husband found a new job in St.Bethlehem, we decided to move there. And my task was to have a house built for us there.
Every morning, I would drive to St. Bethlehem with my two kids to check the progress of our new house being built by workers. If we were lucky, we would be in our new house before Thanksgiving. And we would make new memories.
The days passed and the house rose. Shortly before Thanksgiving, we decided to move. We put our dog Barney into our car. Our large long-haired brown cat named Q didn't want to leave our old house where he had stayed for long. Each time we put him into our car, he escaped into the house. Finally, we put him into a pet cage in our car. And we waved goodbye to our old house that had recorded our many wonderful memories.
After we reached our new house, Barney quickly fit in. But Q was restless and nervous. Fearing he' d escape, I put him in his cage in the basement of our new home. And I told everyone not to let the cat go out of the cage.
Well, it happened anyway. Somehow, Q disappeared. Thanksgiving seemed dull. There was no Q enjoying food with us. Q was my kids' special friend, and losing him hurt them a lot.
The day after Thanksgiving, a neighbor telephoned me, saying someone had broken a window of our old house and that there was a big hole in it. And he added that blood and brown hair were all over the window. Then, I knew Q, our large cat, must have somehow found his way back and broken in. It was a seven-mile journey. I was excited and also worried. Would he still be there Could he find his way back to our new home if he missed us Was he wounded by the broken glass
注意：续写的词数应为150左右。
Hurriedly, I drove to our old house together with my kids.
We quickly took Q to the doctor.
