At a family reunion one year, I noticed that my 13-year-old granddaughter Lauren was not including her cousin Emily in her small circle of three friends.
I pulled Lauren aside, and thought of giving her a lecture (训斥) on 16 . Just then I remembered a 17 experience when I was about the same age as Lauren. I was left out in group activities, and I felt terrible. Seeing
that, a thoughtful teacher asked me to hand out papers one day. Although the teacher’s kind act didn’t make me a member of the group at once, it 18 my self-confidence and created chances for communication with my classmates.
So, instead of giving Lauren a lecture, I changed my way. “Would you and the other girls be willing to make cupcakes for everyone ” I asked.
“Yes!” Lauren’s face brightened, but then 19 . “Hmm… does Emily have to help ” she asked.
This wasn’t a question I was hoping for. I told her firmly (坚定地) that Emily needed to be 20 . Then I told the other three girls about the plan. They were very happy with the idea, but Lauren wasn’t.
I gave each of them tasks for making the cupcakes. Soon, all the four girls 21 themselves in measuring (测量) mixing, and high-fiving one another. I could tell they had a great time there. When the cupcakes were ready, the kitchen was a mess, so I gave each girl their own clean-up duties. More high-fiving. More 22 .
Soon after, I heard laughter in the living room that evening. I noticed Lauren sitting on the floor behind Emily, brushing her hair while Emily was laughing at something Lauren had said. Obviously, my plan of involving them in an activity 23 .
After the family reunion, I told Lauren how kind of her it was to ask Emily to take part in their activities.
Now the four girls are young adults. They don’t see each other often, but each time they meet up, they never 24 to laugh about the messy kitchen they made that time. This best proves that having teens involved is much more 25 than just lecturing when teaching them how they should behave.

Do you do team projects at school I do a lot. I enjoy team projects because I like sharing ideas with other people. Of course, team activities aren’t always easy. You need to know how to work well together. Here are some suggestions to make team work easier.
* Know the goals Make sure everyone understands the goal of the project. If you’re doing a class project, you need to check the teacher’s instructions carefully and ask questions whenever something isn’t clear. There’s a popular saying. If you don’t know where you’re going, you probably won’t get there.
* Assign (指派) roles Everyone should have a role in the team. For example, there should be a leader who helps everyone make decisions. There might be a note-taker who writes down the team’s ideas during meetings, and a time-keeper to control the time. There might also be a fact-checker or a group speaker.
* Divide the work For large projects, the work can be divided into smaller tasks. Then you can choose tasks that you do well or enjoy. Of course, you shouldn’t always do the same task. It’s good to try new things, even if they’re difficult!
* Make a plan After you divide the work, write down a plan on paper. You can use a calendar to help you. List all the tasks and think about when each one must be finished. It’s important for everyone to follow the plan. And if you can’t finish your part on time, tell the others as soon as possible.
Try to be positive. Everything is easier when you’re enjoying yourself in the team.
26．How does the writer begin the text
A．By telling a story. B．By asking a question.

Lovell had been away for ten years. He had saved enough money to start a little store through hard work. Before he would run his business, he went back to see Aunt Sally and Uncle Tom. After his parents died, they gave him a home. It was their teachings made as much a man of him as he was.
However, when he got to the house, he found the windows were boarded up (封闭). Being surprised, he visited the neighbour, Mrs. Stetson and was told Aunt Sally and Uncle Tom lived in the poorhouse (济贫院).
“Uncle Tom got seriously ill and Aunt Sally was too weak to work.” Mrs. Stetson said slowly. “They needed money so they sold the house.”
Lovell was silent for a while. Then he asked in a weak voice, “who owns the house now ” “Peter Townley. All the furniture was sold too, and that almost killed Aunt Sally. She and Uncle Tom will have been married fifty years and it’s awful to have to celebrate their golden wedding in the poorhouse.”
Lovell left after the tea and came again the next evening. “I’ve bought the house from Peter Townley,” he said to Mrs. Stetson, “ ▲ ” For the next two weeks, they visited every house where Aunt Sally’s furniture could be found. They also asked for help from their neighbours to prepare the anniversary (纪念日).
Finally, the evening of the anniversary came. Lovell drove Aunt Sally and Uncle Tom to the old house. Thinking she would spend her anniversary in the poorhouse, Aunt Sally was so surprised that she gave a cry as she entered her house. Her old furniture was back, and the house was full of their old friends. Tears of happiness streamed down her face.
They had a celebration in the house. There were speeches, songs and stories. Lovell kept himself in the background and helped cut the cake all the evening. When the guests had gone, he went to Aunt Sally and Uncle Tom.
“Here’s a little anniversary present,” he put a red purse into Aunt Sally’s hand. “There’s enough money to keep you from having to go to the poorhouse again.”
“We can’t take it, Lovell,” protested Aunt Sally.
“Don’t worry,” laughed Lovell. “I’ve got plenty of money now. It is time for me to pay back.”
“Lovell,” said Uncle Tom. “You don’t know what everything you’ve done means to Sally and me.”
The next day, Lovell said goodbye and went on his way. “You’ve just got enough left to buy the train ticket and you are not able to afford your little store,” he said to himself, “but think about how you feel. It’s not such a bad deal.”

You feel sick, so you go to the doctor. She checks your fever, looks at your throat, she gives you some medicine, but also a list of thinking skills that you are supposed to practice daily. She says that the way you think is causing some of your illness.
Doctors and other scientists who study the human mind and try to explain why people behave in the way that they do, called psychologists, are starting to believe it. You know that your brain is connected to every part of your body through your nervous system (神经系统).
Stress is caused whenever there is a problem or a change in your life. Of course, everybody has stress more or less; nobody’s life is perfect. In fact, we would never learn anything or grow or change without stress. We would probably be bored to death. But too much stress can hurt you. It can weaken your body’s protection so that you are more likely to catch diseases. It can even make you more likely to have an accident.
When you feel stressed, your brain sends a message to your body to produce a chemical called adrenaline (肾上腺素). Adrenaline speeds up your breathing and your heartbeat. Today you have a different kind of stress. Problems like endless homework or troubles with your family are the kind of things you can’t fight or run away from, and that’s what can do something bad to you.
What can you do about stress First, you can try to find ways to change things so you aren’t under so much stress. You can set up a plan to finish homework or go to a doctor or a psychologist to try to work things out with your family or your friends. But sometimes you can’t change a stressful situation. Sometimes you don’t even want to. A big change might be a good change, but it will still be stressful.
The link (关联) between your body and brain works in two ways. Your body can help your mind deal with stress. If you are under stress, you need to take especially good care of your body. It’s important to get enough sleep and eat nutritious meals. Some people take a vitamin-mineral pill every day. Another thing that you can do is daily exercise. If you go walking or do aerobic dancing or work out at the gym, a person who isn’t used to much physical activity should start slowly. Anyone with a continuing physical problem should check with a doctor before starting any exercise programs.
32．A psychologist is a person who may help you with your ________.
A．illness and abilities B．thoughts and behaviour
C．mind and nervous system D．physical activity and daily exercise
33．Which of the following is true according to the passage
A．You shouldn’t go to the gym if you are under stress.
B．One can do his homework to burn up adrenaline.
C．Diseases and accidents are always caused by stress.
D．Problems or changes in life may cause stress to people.
34．What can we infer (推断) from the passage
A．A big change will cause another stressful situation.
B．The way you think has nothing to do with your illness.
C．If you take good care of your body, you will never feel stressed.
D．It’s unnecessary to check with a doctor before starting exercise programs.
35．What does the writer want to tell us in this passage
A．The causes of disease. B．The work a psychologist does.
C．Good ways to keep healthy. D．The connection between the body and brain.
D
根据短文内容，从下列选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项，选项中有两项多余。
36 People use money to buy food, furniture, books, bicycles and hundreds of other things they need or want. When they work, they usually get paid in money.
Most of the money today is made of metal or paper. 37 One of the first kinds of money was shells (贝壳).
Shells were not the only things used as money. In China, cloth and knives were used. In the Philippine Islands, rice was used as money for a long time. Elephant tusks (象牙), monkey tails and salt were used as money in parts of Africa.
The first metal coins were made in China. They were round and had a square hole in the center. 38
Different countries have used different metals and designs for their money. 39 Sweden and Russia used copper (铜) to make their money. Later some countries began to make coins of gold and silver.
But even gold and silver were inconvenient if you had to buy something expensive. Again the Chinese thought of a way to improve money. 40 The first paper money looked more like a note from one person to another than the paper money used today.
Money has had an interesting history from the days of shell money until today.
A．The first coins in England were made of tin (锡).
B．But people used to use all kinds of things as money.

Many people would like to learn how to play a musical instrument, but they are put off by one big problem: what to play Here are some questions to help you decide.
What kind of music do you like
Many instruments are versatile (多用途的), but some are more suited to certain types of music. For example, there are some classical plays for the saxophone, but people connect it more with jazz. The saxophone is not a permanent (永久的) feature of many orchestras (管弦乐队). Some instruments may lend themselves to others better than to the music you like, so think twice before you start.
Do you want to play with other people
Think about your long-term future as a musician. If you want to play with other people, what kind of instrument would be the most practical The attraction of playing a dazzling solo instrument like trumpet (小号), violin, flute or lead guitar might fade (逐渐消失) when you realize how many other people are competing with you to get the main part with the same instrument! If you want to play rock music, there will always be a need for bass players or drummers, and if you feel like being part of an orchestra, the bassoon is a great bet to make sure you are always needed.
Where are you going to practise
Many people live in flats and practising the drums, for example, will drive your neighbours crazy. Think about where and when you are going to practise, as well as the patience of the people you live with or near. Electric musical instruments like the piano, drums, guitar, and even violin give you the option of playing into the night using headphones, while your housemates sleep in peace. Otherwise, you may need to go to a school or a community centre to practise.
How much money can you spend
This is quite a big factor. A lot of instruments can be bought in different price ranges, for example, guitars. But this doesn’t change the fact that many, such as the piano, are always pretty expensive. If you can’t afford your
chosen instrument, will you be able to borrow someone else’s or hire one
Are there any physical limitations (限制)
If you’re small and don’t like lifting heavy instruments, you won’t want to carry around a double bass. Apart from that, use your common sense, and don’t let your physical shortcomings put you off. Who says small skinny people can’t play the tuba (大号) It’s true that some wind instruments require a lot of lung (肺) power, but with the right coaching, everyone can develop the right skill.
Still not sure
Talk to people you know who already play instruments. They might even let you try theirs. It’s also a good idea to find an experienced music teacher, preferably one who plays several different instruments, who can give you some advice and push you in the right direction.
If you find an instrument you love and that suits your needs, you’ll find the time spent choosing was well worth it. Good luck with making your choice!
Which musical instrument should you learn
Types of music you like ◆Many instruments are played for different types of music. ◆ Some instruments may be more 61 for certain types of music. For example, the saxophone has a strong 62 with jazz.
Playing 63 or alone ◆It is 64 for you to get the main part if you choose a solo instrument. ◆If you want to 65 an orchestra, a bassoon is a good instrument because you’ll always be needed.
Places to practise instruments ◆Your neighbours will be mad at the noise from drums in your flats. ◆Electric musical instruments provide a 66 for you at night using headphones while your housemates are sleeping ◆ 67 going to other places to practise in order not to trouble others.
Cost of instruments ◆Instruments like guitars have different prices. ◆You can try to borrow or rent an instrument 68 of buying it at a high price.
Physical limitations ◆Don’t let your physical limitations 69 you picking up an instrument. ◆Some wind instruments need a strong lung. However, proper training can help everyone master the skills.
Extra tips ◆Talk to people who play instruments and have a try. ◆Find a music teacher with rich 70 who can advise you and guide you.

参考答案：
1．A
【详解】句意：在讲解云冈石窟的历史背景的过程中，这是一次难忘的经历。
考查冠词。an一个，不定冠词，表泛指，用于元音音素开头单词前；a一个，不定冠词，表泛指，用于辅音音素开头单词前；the那个，定冠词，表特指。第一空是泛指一次难忘的经历，unforgettable的读音是以元音音素开头，因此此处应用冠词an；第二空是特指云冈石窟的历史背景，因此应用定冠词the。故选A。
2．C
【详解】句意：我们很高兴2024年欧洲冠军联赛将在下个月举行。
考查固定短语及介词辨析。at用于钟点前；in用于泛指的时间前；on用于具体的某一天前。next month“下个月”，是固定短语，前面不用介词，故选C。
3．B
【详解】句意：——阅读时，你越仔细，就越容易在文章中找到答案。——没错。
考查比较级。分析句子结构可知，此处为“the+比较级…, the+比较级…”结构，空处在所在句中充当状语，应用副词的比较级形式。故选B。
4．D
【详解】句意：我希望这种可怕的疾病将不再爆发。
考查动词短语辨析。break into闯入；break up打碎，结束；break down发生故障，失败；breakout(战争、打斗等不愉快事件)突然发生，爆发。根据“the terrible disease”可知，疾病应该是爆发，因此D项符合题意。故选D。
5．C
【详解】句意：——好的。一个汉堡，两个苹果派和一个土豆泥。先生，喝点什么？——除了可乐，其他什么都行。可乐对我来说太甜了。
考查代词辨析。everything所有事；nothing没有事；anything任何事；something一些事。根据“but coke, please. Coke is too sweet for me”可知可乐太甜了，所以除了可乐，任何东西都可以。故选C。
6．D
【详解】句意：——坎迪，我能看看你的笔记本吗？它看起来很特别。——很抱歉。我通常会在里面写一些私人的东西，所以我不会和别人分享。
考查形容词词义辨析。perfect完美的；practical实际的；pleasant令人愉快的；private私人的。根据空后的“so I won’t share it with others”可知，此处指在里面写一些私人的东西，所以不会和别人分享。故选D。
7．D
【详解】句意：除非你有实际的生活技能，否则你的教育是不完整的。
考查连词词义辨析。if如果，引导条件状语从句；although虽然，尽管，引导让步状语从句；because因为，引导原因状语从句；unless除非，如果不，引导条件状语从句。根据句意可知，“受教育完整”的条件是“有实际的生活技能”，if和unless引导条件状语从句。当某个条件为真时，后面的动作或结果会发生，用if引导条件状语从句。当某个条件不成立时，后面的动作或结果才会发生，用unless引导条件状语从句。unless在意义上相当于“if...not...”，选项D符合语境。故选D。
8．D
【详解】句意：他们彼此相爱了五年后，终于结了婚。
考查时态。fall in love为非延续性动词短语，不能与for five years连用，故排除A、B项；be in love为表示状态的动词短语，可以与for five years连用，且这个动作发生在“got married”之前，故用过去完成时had done。故选D。
9．D
【详解】句意：不要解决你的问题。解决你的思想。然后问题会自行解决。
考查代词。 you你；yourselves你自己；them它们；themselves它们自己。根据“Don’t fix your problems. Fix your thinking. Then the problems will fix”可知，此空是指问题会自行解决，所以这里应该要填的是反身代词，反身代词应该与句子主语保持一致，这里的主语是“problems”，所以这里的反身代词应该是“themselves”。故选D。
10．A
【详解】句意：——你做过MBTI测试来了解你的性格类型吗？——还没有，我可能是一个“E”型的人，因为我喜欢分享我的想法，但我不确定。
考查情态动词辨析。may可能；must必须；need to需要；ought to应该。根据“but I’m not so sure”可知，回答者并不确定自己的性格类型，因此只能作一个推测，所以应该用“may”表推测，故选A。
11．C
【详解】句意：沿着长江从启东到上海的北方高速铁路会开得那么快啊！——当然了。除了快，里面的环境也会很舒适。
考查感叹句。how用来修饰形容词、副词或动词，其结构是“How+形容词/副词+主语+谓语!”；what用来修饰名词，其结构是“What +a/an+(形容词)+单数可数名词+主语+谓语!”或“What+(形容词)+可数名词复数或不可数名词+主语+谓语!”。根据“fast the North high-speed railway along the Yangtze River from Qidong to Shanghai will move!”可知，此处为How引导的感叹句。故选C。
12．A
【详解】句意：——汤姆，你们学校的运动会多久以后举行？ ——我不知道。也许在几周之后。
考查特殊疑问。how soon多久以后；how long多长；how far多远；how often多久一次。根据答句“Maybe in a couple of weeks.”可知，此处对将来的时间进行提问，用how soon，故选A。
13．D
【详解】句意：对不起，先生，如果您在15分钟内不付款，您的订单将被取消。
考查条件状语从句和被动语态。根据“if you fail to…”可知，此句属于含if引导的条件状语从句的复合句，遵循主将从现原则，从句谓语“fail to pay for…”为一般现在时，则主句应用一般将来时；主句主语your order与动词cancel逻辑上存在动宾关系，应用被动语态，所以此处应用一般将来时的被动语态，其结构是will be done。故选D。
14．B
【详解】句意：——知道为什么桃红色会成为2024年的流行色吗？——因为它给人一种亲切的感觉。
考查宾语从句。根据宾语从句的语序是陈述语序可知，AD选项是疑问语序，排除；由“Because it brings a feeling of kindness.”可知，此处是对原因进行提问的，因此用why提问，排除C选项。故选B。

71．例文
We Only Live Once
Dear classmates,
It’s my honor to make a speech here. Have you ever tried your best to do one thing Have you ever lived your life to the fullest Today I want to share the thing I keep doing these years with you.
When I was in Grade 7, I couldn’t speak English well because of my poor pronunciation, so I was always laughed at by others. I made up my mind to improve my spoken English no matter how hard it was for me at that time. These years I get up at 5 o’clock every morning so that I can spend at least half an hour practising speaking English. To correct my pronunciation, I also read English aloud after the tape every day. Now my English has greatly improved.
This learning experience has made a great difference to my life. I am not as shy as I used to be. Besides, when facing difficulties in study. I will never give up. I’m ready to take on any challenge in the future.
Thank you!
