Amy Jandrisevits knows the value of a good doll. “Dolls have a power we don’t completely understand,” she says. It’s a conclusion she came to while working as a pediatric oncology (儿科肿瘤) social worker using dolls to help her young patients adapt to their changing medical situations. Many of the kids saw themselves in those good dolls, but for the kids who had lost their legs or hair, there were none they could relate to.
So, eight years ago, when a friend said that her child was disabled, Jandrisevits knew what might help the youth through the challenging period. “It’s hard to tell a kid, ‘You are perfect the way you are’, and it is important to build the kids’ self-confidence,” she says.
Jandrisevits went about changing that. She made a doll by hand, which looked like her friend’s child and sent it off. After the friend posted a photo of the happy child and doll on-line, another woman asked Jandrisevits to make a doll that looked like her baby, who had lost a leg.
Word spread, and soon Jandrisevits made dolls for children with different physical defects (缺陷) — in short, dolls that looked like them. She quit her job and started a nonprofit, A Doll Like Me. Working out of her home in Milwaukee, based on photos sent by kids’ parents or caregivers, Jandrisevits takes about seven hours to make each doll. A GoFundMe page helps her make up for costs and allows her to donate her services. She hasn’t charged for a doll since she began her nonprofit.
In all, she has made more than 400 dolls. The waiting list is long, but Jandrisevits is undefeated. As she explains on her GoFundMe page, “Every kid, regardless of age or body type, should look into the sweet face of a doll and see their own.”
4. What is the value of good dolls in the eyes of Jandrisevits
A. Helping patients learn to make the dolls.
B. Letting patients see themselves in the dolls.
C. Letting patients believe that they’re perfect.

C
“Long time no see.” is a very interesting sentence. When I first read this sentence from an American friend’s e-mail, I laughed. I thought it was a perfect example of Chinglish.
Obviously, it is a word-by-word literal translation (直译) of the Chinese greeting with wrong English grammar! Later on, my friend told me that it is a standard American greeting. I was too surprised to believe her. Her words were unbelievable at all. So I did research on . To my surprise, there are over 60 thousand web pages containing “Long time no see.” Though it is sort of informal, it is part of the language that Americans use daily. Interestingly, if you type this phrase in Microsoft Word, the software will tell you that the grammar needs to be corrected.
Nobody knows the origin of this Chinglish sentence. Some people believe that it came from Charlie Chan’s movies. In the 1930s, Hollywood moviemakers successfully created a worldwide famous Chinese detective named “Charlie Chan” on wide screens. Detective Chan liked to teach Americans some Chinese wisdom by quoting Confucius. “Long time no see.” was his symbol. Soon after Charlie Chan, “Long time no see.” became a popular expression in America thanks to the popularity of these movies.
Some scholars compare America to a huge melting pot. All kinds of cultures are mixed in the pot together and they change the color and taste of each other. Language is usually the first thing to be influenced in the mixed pot.
You can have some examples from other countries, such as pizza from Italian, sushi from Japanese, and déjà vu from French etc. There is a long list! Since Americans admire Chinese culture more and more nowadays, I believe more Chinese words will become American English in the future. In this way, the American’s melting pot keeps adding richness.
8. Why did the writer himself feel surprised
A. “Long time no see.” is a Chinglish expression.
B. He’s found Americans use the expression formally every day.
C. So many literal translations of expressions are used in America.
D. “Longtime no see.” is used as a standard American English greeting.
9. What do the underlined words “a huge melting pot” in paragraph 4 probably mean
A. A large boiling cooker. B. Cross-cultural mixture.
C. A kind of cooked dish. D. Confucius’s famous words.
10. What can be inferred from the passage
A. Detectives translated the phrase “Long time no see.”
B. Cultures cannot be changed in the huge melting pot.
C. Hollywood probably made “Longtime no see.” popular.
D. The huge melting pot greatly affects all kinds of languages.
11. What is the main idea of the passage
A. Some American expressions can be used in China.
B. Americans have a strong interest in Chinese culture.
C. American English keeps being enriched by different cultures.
D. Some Chinese daily expressions are introduced into English.
D
Children should do housework. That’s a controversial (有争议的) idea, though not everyone will admit it. A few parents will say that their children are too busy for housework. Many more of us assign (分派) housework, or say we believe in them, but the housework just doesn’t get done.
That’s a problem. For starters, housework is good for kids. Being a part of the routine work of running a household helps children develop an awareness of the needs of others, while at the same time contributing to their emotional well-being.
One small study, done over a period of 25 years, found that the best predictor (预测) for young adults’ success in their mid-20s was whether they participated in household tasks at age 3 or 4. Those early shared responsibilities extended to a sense of responsibility in other areas of their lives.
But for all that their help matters, few kids are doing much around the house at all. In a survey of 1,000 American adults, 75 percent said they believed regular housework made kids “more responsible”. Yet while 82 percent reported having had regular housework growing up, only 56 percent of those with children said they required them to do housework.
Sports and homework are not get-out-of-housework-free cards. The goal, after all, is to raise adults who can balance a caring role in their families and communities with whatever lifetime achievement goals they choose. Housework teaches that balance.
What should you do when getting children to do housework Accept no excuses. Don’t worry if you must repeat yourself again and again. If you’re spending more time getting the child to do this job than it would take to do it yourself, then you’re doing it right. Can a payment help Maybe. But if you’re trying to teach kids to share the responsibility of a home, paying them for routine housework is not the right message.
12. What can we infer from the first paragraph
A. Very few children get housework done. B. Children are very busy with housework.
C. Housework is a must-do for parents. D. Family members should respect each other.
13. What is found in the small study
A. Housework helps a man live a happy life. B. A man’s success depends on his housework.
C. Housework benefits a sense of responsibility. D. A child must start doing housework at Age 3.
14. What does the author advise parents to do in the last paragraph
A. Balance housework and study. B. Help the child do housework positively.
C. Do housework by themselves. D. Pay the child for housework.
15. What is the best title of the text
A. Adults Do Less Housework in the US B. Housework Matters to Children.
C. Parents Words Speak Louder D. Children Need More Care at Home

How to Turn Your Goals into Habits
First we make our habits, then our habits make us. It’s such a simple concept, yet it’s something we don’t always do.
I believe that having ONE goal to focus on is much more powerful than having many goals. By putting the belief into practice, I have achieved a lot of personal goals over time. ____16____ My answer takes a little explaining. I try to turn my goals into habits, and in doing so, I put my goals on autopilot. Turning a goal into a habit means really focusing on it for at least a month. The more you can focus, the more it’ll be on autopilot. ____17____ You’ll still do it, but you only have to use minimal force to maintain it, and you can focus on your next goal or habit.
Take my marathon goal as an example. I was just starting running and had the brilliant idea to run a marathon within a year. So that was my goal. ____18____ First, I had to make running a daily habit. Second, I had to report to people in order to have accountability (负责) so that I could not quit easily. I focused on the daily running habit for about a month, and didn’t have any other goals or habits. When the running habit stuck, I started reporting to people I knew and blogging about my running every day.
_____19_____ I could focus on new goals without having to worry about the marathon. I still had to do the running, of course, but it didn’t require constant focus. _____20_____ I was able to achieve this because, all year long, I had daily running and accountability habits. I put my marathon goal into autopilot, so instead of struggling with it daily for an entire year, I focused on it for one month and was able to accomplish it while focusing on new habits and goals.
A. And eventually, I ran the first marathon in my life.
B. At the beginning, it was very difficult for me to achieve this goal.
C. But in order to achieve it, I broke it down into two habits.
D. With this accountability, there’s no way I could stop running.
E. Once you put it on autopilot, you don’t have to focus on it much.
F. My readers asked me how I was able to achieve them while working on different projects.
G. Once those two habits were established, my marathon goal was pretty much on autopilot.

We stared and pointed in ____23____. “Ben, can you believe it ” I cried. “We’re swimming with the whales!” “Mom,” Ben said in reply, “we’re ____24____ swimming with the whales. This is their habitat, not ours!”
Ben’s words took my breath away, more than the dramatic waves and the amazing sight of the ____25____.
He was absolutely ____26____ of course. These whales live in the waters off Cape Cod. This is their ____27____—one that we visit, love and protect. So when we set foot into a ____28____ space, it’s meaningful and important to ____29____ that we are visiting something that is beautiful and enjoyable to us, but is not _____30_____ for us.
We each have a part to play in _____31_____ space. When we acknowledge our coexistence, as Ben _____32_____, we set ourselves up for success in how we interact with each other. This is as _____33_____ in the vastness of the ocean as it is in our _____34_____ where we live, work, play and serve.

【分析】本文是一篇选句填空。当我们把目标变成习惯的时候，很容易地就可以实现自己的目标。文章讲述了具体的做法。
【16题详解】
横线后句“My answer takes a little explaining.”中的动词“answer”是关键词，由此可知横线句应该是一个问句，结合前句“By putting the belief into practice, I have achieved a lot of personal goals over time.”可知，人们对我取得如此多的成就的方法设问。F项：My readers asked me how I was able to achieve them while working on different projects.(我的读者问我，在做不同的项目时，我是如何做到这些的)承上启下，故选F。
【17题详解】
根据本段第四句I try to turn my goals into habits, and in doing so, I put my goals on autopilot.可知，把目标变成习惯，就会自动地努力去实现自己的目标，这就变成了一种自然的行为，不要再过多关注。E项：Once you put it on autopilot, you don’t have to focus on it much.(一旦你把它变成自动行动的，你就不必太关注它了。)符合本段文意，故选E。

Second, I had to report to people in order to have accountability (负责) so that I could not quit easily.可知，作者首先把跑步变成日常的习惯，然后必须向人们汇报，这样作者就有了责任感，不会轻易放弃。C项：But in order to achieve it, I broke it down into two habits.(但为了达到这个目的，我把它分成了两个习惯。)也是讲述如何变成习惯，故选C。
【19题详解】
根据横线后句I could focus on new goals without having to worry about the marathon.可知，作者关注新的目标，不再考虑之前的马拉松了，因为马拉松已经成为作者的习惯了。G项：Once those two habits were established, my marathon goal was pretty much on autopilot.(一旦这两个习惯建立起来，我的马拉松目标几乎是自动行动的。)符合文意，目标变成自动行动的，作者才不会关注了，故选G。
【20题详解】
根据横线后句I was able to achieve this because, all year long, I had daily running and accountability habits.可知，作者实现了这个目标是因为她每天都在跑，让跑马拉松成为了作者的习惯。那么实现这个目标就是很自然的事情了，A项：And eventually, I ran the first marathon in my life.(我完成了第一个马拉松，实现了我的目标。)符合上下文文意，故选A。
【点睛】本文小题3可以根据文章中的数字信息得出答案，在横线后两句中出现了first和second，说明要把一个大目标拆分成两个小目标。得出C项答案。做题时很重要的一点是保持对一些线索词的敏感，最主要的线索特征词是空白前后的名词和动词，寻找答案时注意在选项中查找同义词、近义词、反义词或表示同一类事物的词语等。其次是代词、数词、表示时间/年代的词、地点/名称等专有名词等。尤其是在读不懂句子的情况下，利用这样的线索词寻找答案是很有效的方法。

Dear Mr. Brown,
I hope this email finds you well. I’m writing to express my sincere gratitude for your kind help during my one-year stay in the US as an exchange student.
Your guidance was incredibly valuable to me. You patiently helped me improve my English pronunciation and vocabulary, and you often shared interesting stories about American culture, which made my life there much more enjoyable and meaningful. I truly felt at home with your family’s warm care.
However, I just realized that I left my English dictionary at your place. Could you please check if it’s still there If you find it, would you mind sending it to me I’ll cover all the mailing costs.
Thank you again for everything you’ve done for me. I look forward to hearing from you soon.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
