Don’t forget to review the new words often! B. For long passages, try to understand the general meaning and key points first. It doesn’t matter when you read some sentences with difficult words that you don’t know. Just read the sentences before and after and try to guess the meaning of the new words. C. Just start with some short sentences and do it day by day. You’ll find that you can write long sentences and even paragraphs one day! If you have some time, try to read some books before writing! D. It’s useful to talk to yourself in English as much as possible. Besides, going to the English Club in your school will be better. Just stick it out, and after some time you may feel less nervous when you speak English in class.

First Impression
The day that I met my best friend for the first time, I was full of anxiety. I was trying to do some revision for an important oral exam in the local library and people kept disturbing（打扰）me. I was getting more and more annoyed and the more upset I got, the less I was able to concentrate. I couldn’t stand when I heard someone singing loudly behind me. I turned around and glared at the person who was singing. It was a tall girl about the same age as me and she was standing with a book in her hands. I picked up my books, looked at her and said angrily, “Thanks to your noise. I’ve been unable to study. You’re so selfish!” Then I left the library in a hurry.
When I got home, I realized I’d left my textbook behind and there was nothing I could do as the library was closed. I was so upset that I almost cried. Just then, the phone rang. A girl named Jenny had noticed my book in the library and she got my phone number from the librarian. She said she didn’t live far away and could bring it around for me.
I was so grateful and agreed to meet her at the store down the road. When I recognized Jenny was the girl I had shouted at for singing, I was filled with shame and apologized several times for my rude behavior.
Jenny was kind enough to pardon me. Ever since then we’ve been best friends and we got along very well. I often think how lucky I am! We two girls are much alike and I trust her more than anyone else.
From the experience I know that the first impression is untrue sometimes and we can’t judge a person only by the first impression.
24. The writer went to the local library to ______.
A. meet her best friend B. borrow some books
C. prepare for the exam D. get back her textbook
25. What did the writer do when she heard someone singing
A. She left the library nervously.
B. She shouted at the girl angrily.
C. She was too upset to say a word.
D. She argued with the girl immediately.
26. Why did the writer think she was lucky at last
A. Because she met kind Jenny. B. Because Jenny pardoned her.
C. Because Jenny returned her book. D. Because she passed the exam.
C
We rely on our memory for sharing stories with friends or learning from our past experiences. Yet evidence shows that our memory isn’t as consistent as we’d like to believe.
There are countless reasons why tiny mistakes might happen each time we recall past events. And whenever these mistakes happen, they can have long-term effects on how we’ll recall that memory in the future.
Take storytelling for example. When we describe our memories to other people we might ask ourselves whether it’s important to get the facts straight, or whether we only want to make the listener laugh. And we might change the story’s details depending on the listener’s attitudes. It isn’t only the message that changes, but sometimes it’s also the memory itself. This is known as the “audience-tuning effect”, showing us how our memories can change automatically over time, as a product of how, when, and why we access them.
In fact, sometimes simply the act of repeating a memory can be exactly what makes it easy to change. This is known as “retrieval-enhanced suggestibility”. In a typical study of this effect, participants watched a short film, then took a memory test a few days later. But during the days between watching the film and taking the final test, two other things happened. First, half of the participants took a practice memory test. Second, all of the participants were given a description of the film to read, which contained some false details. Participants who took a practice memory test shortly before reading the false information were more likely to reproduce this false information in the final memory test.
Why might this be One theory is that repeating our memories of past events can temporarily make those memories malleable. In other words, retrieving（找回）a memory might be a bit like taking ice-cream out of the freezer and leaving it in direct sunlight for a while. By the time our memory goes back into the freezer, it might have naturally become a little misshapen, especially if someone has influenced it purposely in the meantime.
These findings lead us to wonder how much our most treasured memories have changed since the very first time we remembered them. Remembering is an act of storytelling, after all. And our memories are only ever as reliable as the most recent story we told ourselves.
27. The writer takes storytelling for example to prove that ______.
A. it is impossible to change the listener’s attitudes
B. it is important to describe our memories directly
C. we can make other people laugh by telling stories
D. we may change our memories according to the listener
28. What do you know about memory from the passage
A. Our memories can change our personalities.
B. Our memories can correct mistakes on their own.
C We can take a practice memory test to strengthen our memories.
D. We can reproduce the information while repeating our memories.
29. The word “malleable” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ______.
A. reasonable B. valuable C. changeable D. controllable
D
When Helen Keller was nineteen months old, a brief illness made her both deaf and blind. With such limitations, how could Keller ever be expected to find happiness
Because happiness has been considered a personal concept, it is difficult to define (定义). Many people throughout history have tried. Greek scientist and philosopher Aristotle wrote, “Happiness depends upon ourselves,” which is not a definition but an observation that individuals are responsible for their own happiness. Roman statesman and philosopher Lucius Seneca wrote of a particular quality of happiness, saying, “True happiness is to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future.”
Is there a scientific basis (基础) for happiness Researcher suggests happiness is a matter of perspective: “Truly happy individuals construe life events and daily situations in ways that seem to maintain their happiness, while unhappy individuals construe (理解) experiences in ways that seem to reinforce unhappiness”. Basically, this means the way you choose to remember events and situations affects your happiness.
Some research concludes happiness is made up of three parts: pleasure, engagement and meaning. Pleasure involves things that give physical and emotional joy, such as playing a sport or seeing beautiful art. Engagement involves positive interactions (互动) with other people, such as studying or working with people whose company you enjoy. Meaning relates to feeling that your work is useful and important to others.
Even with scientific rationalization (合理化), questions remain. For example, are younger people happier than older people In fact, the opposite seems to be true. This may be because younger people tend to experience higher levels of negative emotions, such as anxiety and anger. The young also have less control over their lives because they lack both independence and the ability to make many of their own decisions.
Perhaps the most important question is whether you can change how happy you are. Studies of identical twins suggest that genetics forms about half of your happiness level. Your quality of life influences about 10 percent of your happiness. That means about 40 percent of your happiness is determined by your choices and actions.
From this explanation we can see that one way you can make yourself happier is to set goals. Keller had a definition of happiness in keeping with this idea. She felt happiness did not come from simply trying to satisfy your own desires but rather by contributing your time and skills to improve the world in some way.
Even if you are unable to achieve a goal that makes the world better in some small way, simply trying will likely give your life meaning and, at the same time, happiness.
30. Why does the writer mention the words of Aristotle and Seneca
A. To show what is the definition of happiness.
B. To suggest that we should enjoy the present.
C. To explain why we can choose to be happy or not.
D. To stress that people have different ideas about happiness.
31. What can you learn from the passage
A People should communicate with others positively.
B. The young may prefer to make decisions on their own.
C. Your happiness influences the way to understand your life.
D. Your happiness largely depends on your situation of your life.
32. According to Helen Keller, you may feel happier when you ______.
A. choose your dream school B. do clean-up in your neighborhood
C. watch your favorite movie D. talk with your closest friends
33. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage
A. A Special Quality of Happiness B. The Positive Effect of Happiness
C. The True Meaning of Happiness D. A Scientific Basis of Happiness

四、阅读表达（第34-36题每题2分，第37题4分，共10分）
阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
Smile to the Lost Present
The one who has never gained something will never experience the pain of losing whatever that something is. That is pretty clear. But I consider the absence of the joy of “having” to be more miserable (痛苦的) than that of having lost something after having once had it.
When I was six years old, a lovely doll caught my eye. My mom refused to buy it for me, so I took a “job”, my first, selling sweets in a park. Holding the doll which had been earned by myself, I was the happiest girl in the world. However, the doll ended up losing during a family trip. My tears couldn’t bring it back.
In Grade Nine, my closest friend became estranged (疏远) from me. We had shared our innermost secrets with each other and supported one another through difficult times. At the time she kept me at a distance, I was very disappointed and even wished I had never known her. Accustomed to our friendship and her company, I didn’t know what to do without her at one time.
Recalling the past, I’m not that sad about those lost treasures now. Instead, I am thankful for them for making my life colorful. I am proud of the persevering little girl who managed to acquire her coveted doll. And the memory of my ex-friend’s warm smile continues to encourage me from time to time. How much would I have missed in life if I hadn’t bought that doll or hadn’t befriended that girl
Experiences are of great importance to our lives. The world is so changeable that nothing is able to last forever. Nothing actually belongs to us except our own feelings. How much regret do you think exists in this unfilled blank which we create for ourselves when we give up on our reasonable wants just because of our fears of potential loss For me, nothing could be more miserable than a risk-free but boring life in which you have the constant desire for something but have not the courage to make it your own!
Face peacefully the fact that, while the treasure itself is gone, the memories are still very much alive. Walk out of the shadow and accept the new present that is being delivered to you. Let these wonderful past moments shine like stars in the night sky.
Don’t cry because it’s over; smile because it once happened.
34. What did the writer do after her mom refused to buy the doll for her

35. How did the writer feel when her closest friend became estranged from her

First Impression
The day that I met my best friend for the first time, I was full of anxiety. I was trying to do some revision for an important oral exam in the local library and people kept disturbing（打扰）me. I was getting more and more annoyed and the more upset I got, the less I was able to concentrate. I couldn’t stand when I heard someone singing loudly behind me. I turned around and glared at the person who was singing. It was a tall girl about the same age as me and she was standing with a book in her hands. I picked up my books, looked at her and said angrily, “Thanks to your noise. I’ve been unable to study. You’re so selfish!” Then I left the library in a hurry.
When I got home, I realized I’d left my textbook behind and there was nothing I could do as the library was closed. I was so upset that I almost cried. Just then, the phone rang. A girl named Jenny had noticed my book in the library and she got my phone number from the librarian. She said she didn’t live far away and could bring it around for me.
I was so grateful and agreed to meet her at the store down the road. When I recognized Jenny was the girl I had shouted at for singing, I was filled with shame and apologized several times for my rude behavior.
Jenny was kind enough to pardon me. Ever since then we’ve been best friends and we got along very well. I often think how lucky I am! We two girls are much alike and I trust her more than anyone else.
From the experience I know that the first impression is untrue sometimes and we can’t judge a person only by the first impression.

We rely on our memory for sharing stories with friends or learning from our past experiences. Yet evidence shows that our memory isn’t as consistent as we’d like to believe.
There are countless reasons why tiny mistakes might happen each time we recall past events. And whenever these mistakes happen, they can have long-term effects on how we’ll recall that memory in the future.
Take storytelling for example. When we describe our memories to other people, we might ask ourselves whether it’s important to get the facts straight, or whether we only want to make the listener laugh. And we might change the story’s details depending on the listener’s attitudes. It isn’t only the message that changes, but sometimes it’s also the memory itself. This is known as the “audience-tuning effect”, showing us how our memories can change automatically over time, as a product of how, when, and why we access them.
In fact, sometimes simply the act of repeating a memory can be exactly what makes it easy to change. This is known as “retrieval-enhanced suggestibility”. In a typical study of this effect, participants watched a short film, then took a memory test a few days later. But during the days between watching the film and taking the final test, two other things happened. First, half of the participants took a practice memory test. Second, all of the participants were given a description of the film to read, which contained some false details. Participants who took a practice memory test shortly before reading the false information were more likely to reproduce this false information in the final memory test.
Why might this be One theory is that repeating our memories of past events can temporarily make those memories malleable. In other words, retrieving（找回）a memory might be a bit like taking ice-cream out of the freezer and leaving it in direct sunlight for a while. By the time our memory goes back into the freezer, it might have naturally become a little misshapen, especially if someone has influenced it purposely in the meantime.
These findings lead us to wonder how much our most treasured memories have changed since the very first time we remembered them. Remembering is an act of storytelling, after all. And our memories are only ever as reliable as the most recent story we told ourselves.
27. The writer takes storytelling for example to prove that ______.
A. it is impossible to change the listener’s attitudes
B. it is important to describe our memories directly
C. we can make other people laugh by telling stories
D. we may change our memories according to the listener
28. What do you know about memory from the passage
A Our memories can change our personalities.
B. Our memories can correct mistakes on their own.
C. We can take a practice memory test to strengthen our memories.
D. We can reproduce the information while repeating our memories.
29. The word “malleable” in Paragraph 5 is closest in meaning to ______.
A. reasonable B. valuable C. changeable D. controllable
【答案】27. D 28. D 29. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了我们的记忆并不像我们想要相信的那样一致。
【27题详解】
细节理解题。根据“And we might change the story’s details depending on the listener’s attitudes.”可知，作者以讲故事为例来证明我们可能会根据听者的态度改变故事的细节。故选D。
【28题详解】
推理判断题。根据“There are countless reasons why tiny mistakes might happen each time we recall past events.”以及通读全文可知，本文主要通过实验证明重复的记忆会使记忆发生改变，因此我们可以进行一次练习记忆力测试来增强我们的记忆力。故选D。
【29题详解】
词句猜测题。根据“By the time our memory goes back into the freezer, it might have naturally become a little misshapen, especially if someone has influenced it purposely in the meantime.”可知，这里将记忆与取出冰箱的冰淇淋作类比，冰淇淋会融化变形，记忆也会发生改变。因此malleable应该表示“可变的”。故选C。
D
When Helen Keller was nineteen months old, a brief illness made her both deaf and blind. With such limitations, how could Keller ever be expected to find happiness
Because happiness has been considered a personal concept, it is difficult to define (定义). Many people throughout history have tried. Greek scientist and philosopher Aristotle wrote, “Happiness depends upon ourselves,” which is not a definition but an observation that individuals are responsible for their own happiness. Roman statesman and philosopher Lucius Seneca wrote of a particular quality of happiness, saying, “True happiness is to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future.”
Is there a scientific basis (基础) for happiness Researcher suggests happiness is a matter of perspective: “Truly happy individuals construe life events and daily situations in ways that seem to maintain their happiness, while unhappy individuals construe (理解) experiences in ways that seem to reinforce unhappiness”. Basically, this means the way you choose to remember events and situations affects your happiness.
Some research concludes happiness is made up of three parts: pleasure, engagement and meaning. Pleasure involves things that give physical and emotional joy, such as playing a sport or seeing beautiful art. Engagement involves positive interactions (互动) with other people, such as studying or working with people whose company you enjoy. Meaning relates to feeling that your work is useful and important to others.
Even with scientific rationalization (合理化), questions remain. For example, are younger people happier than older people In fact, the opposite seems to be true. This may be because younger people tend to experience higher levels of negative emotions, such as anxiety and anger. The young also have less control over their lives because they lack both independence and the ability to make many of their own decisions.
Perhaps the most important question is whether you can change how happy you are. Studies of identical twins suggest that genetics forms about half of your happiness level. Your quality of life influences about 10 percent of your happiness. That means about 40 percent of your happiness is determined by your choices and actions.
From this explanation we can see that one way you can make yourself happier is to set goals. Keller had a definition of happiness in keeping with this idea. She felt happiness did not come from simply trying to satisfy your own desires but rather by contributing your time and skills to improve the world in some way.
Even if you are unable to achieve a goal that makes the world better in some small way, simply trying will likely give your life meaning and, at the same time, happiness.
30. Why does the writer mention the words of Aristotle and Seneca
A. To show what is the definition of happiness.
B. To suggest that we should enjoy the present.
C. To explain why we can choose to be happy or not.
D. To stress that people have different ideas about happiness.
31. What can you learn from the passage
A. People should communicate with others positively.
B. The young may prefer to make decisions on their own.
C. Your happiness influences the way to understand your life.
D. Your happiness largely depends on your situation of your life.
32. According to Helen Keller, you may feel happier when you ______.
A. choose your dream school B. do clean-up in your neighborhood
C. watch your favorite movie D. talk with your closest friends
33. Which of the following would be the best title for the passage
A. A Special Quality of Happiness B. The Positive Effect of Happiness
C. The True Meaning of Happiness D. A Scientific Basis of Happiness
【答案】30. D 31. A 32. B 33. C
【解析】
【导语】本文主要介绍了不同的人对幸福的不同理解以及幸福的真正意义。
【30题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Greek scientist and philosopher Aristotle wrote, ‘Happiness depends upon ourselves,’ which is not a definition but an observation that individuals are responsible for their own happiness.”和“Roman statesman and philosopher Lucius Seneca wrote of a particular quality of happiness, saying, ‘True happiness is to enjoy the present, without anxious dependence upon the future.’”可知，亚里士多德认为“幸福取决于我们自己”，塞涅卡则认为“真正的幸福是享受现在，而不焦虑地依赖未来”，所以引用二人的话是为了强调人们对幸福有不同的看法。故选D。
【31题详解】
细节理解题。根据“Some research concludes happiness is made up of three parts: pleasure, engagement and meaning.”以及“Engagement involves positive interactions (互动) with other people, such as studying or working with people whose company you enjoy.”可知，人们应该积极地与他人交流。故选A。
【32题详解】
推理判断题。根据“She felt happiness did not come from simply trying to satisfy your own desires but rather by contributing your time and skills to improve the world in some way.”可知，幸福不是来自于简单地满足自己的欲望，而是通过贡献你的时间和技能来以某种方式改善世界，因此当你在社区做大扫除的时候你会感到更幸福。故选B。
【33题详解】
标题归纳题。本文主要介绍了不同的人对幸福的不同理解以及幸福的真正意义，因此选项C“幸福的真谛”适合作为文章标题。故选C。

阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。
Smile to the Lost Present
The one who has never gained something will never experience the pain of losing whatever that something is. That is pretty clear. But I consider the absence of the joy of “having” to be more miserable (痛苦的) than that of having lost something after having once had it.
When I was six years old, a lovely doll caught my eye. My mom refused to buy it for me, so I took a “job”, my first, selling sweets in a park. Holding the doll which had been earned by myself, I was the happiest girl in the world. However, the doll ended up losing during a family trip. My tears couldn’t bring it back.
In Grade Nine, my closest friend became estranged (疏远) from me. We had shared our innermost secrets with each other and supported one another through difficult times. At the time she kept me at a distance, I was very disappointed and even wished I had never known her. Accustomed to our friendship and her company, I didn’t know what to do without her at one time.
Recalling the past, I’m not that sad about those lost treasures now. Instead, I am thankful for them for making my life colorful. I am proud of the persevering little girl who managed to acquire her coveted doll. And the memory of my ex-friend’s warm smile continues to encourage me from time to time. How much would I have missed in life if I hadn’t bought that doll or hadn’t befriended that girl
Experiences are of great importance to our lives. The world is so changeable that nothing is able to last forever. Nothing actually belongs to us except our own feelings. How much regret do you think exists in this unfilled blank which we create for ourselves when we give up on our reasonable wants just because of our fears of potential loss For me, nothing could be more miserable than a risk-free but boring life in which you have the constant desire for something but have not the courage to make it your own!
Face peacefully the fact that, while the treasure itself is gone, the memories are still very much alive. Walk out of the shadow and accept the new present that is being delivered to you. Let these wonderful past moments shine like stars in the night sky.
Don’t cry because it’s over; smile because it once happened.

Dear Chris,
I’m glad to know that you’re interested in our social practice activities. Our school often organizes us to go to science museum, nursing home, park and so on to do social practice activities. We just went to the Science Museum last week. We met at the school gate at 8 o’clock in the morning, and then we went there by bus. We sang and laughed all the way. After arriving at the Science Museum, we visited many famous people and their inventions. And then we did some science experiments ourselves. They were really interesting. Through this activity, we not only learn a lot of scientific knowledge, but also broaden our horizons.
I hope the above is helpful. Please feel free to ask for more information.
