A

Kellan was coaching one of the beginning soccer teams—the Falcons. It was their first practice.
"Angela, you're supposed to be guarding the net!" Kellan called out.
"But I'm making a flower chain for you," the girl replied.
A few moments later, Angela ran off the field to present Kellan with her gift. Angela's teammate Jason, meanwhile, was following the slow-movement of a caterpillar (毛毛虫）in the middle of the field, while another player, Rory, was playing in a near-by pond of rainwater.
After the practice, Kellan felt really tired, as if she had run a marathon.
When she arrived home, Kellan threw herself on the couch and thought carefully about the practice. The players ran in a hundred different directions. They didn't recognize each other's strengths and had no idea how to work together. As she touched the flower chain still hanging around her neck, an idea slowly started taking shape in her mind.
The next day, Kellan called for her players to gather around and took out a picture. The picture showed the loops of a big chain, and each loop had a team member's name as well as a talent written on it.
"This picture shows one way each person can help our team," Kellan began explaining. "For example, Rory has fast speed, and Jason has sharp eyes for watching the ball." Kellan noticed how everyone in the group slowly changed, sitting up taller and smiling as she mentioned their names and skills.
"What will happen if one loop is missing " asked Kellan.
"The chain will fall apart, and it won't be a chain anymore," Angela replied.
"Exactly!" Kellan said. "In order to be a team, we need everyone to work together, like loops in a chain. It won't be easy, but I want every person to try."
Her players still struggled with their practice, but, for the first time, they tried to help each other. It was a start. Kellan felt a sense of satisfaction as she waved good-bye to her team at the end of the practice.
21.What was Angela doing when Kellan first coached the Falcons
A. She was guarding the net. B. She was playing with water.
C. She was making a flower chain. D. She was watching a caterpillar.
22.Why did the players slowly change as Kellan mentioned their names and skills
A. Because everyone realized their own importance.
B. Because they wanted to share their thoughts.
C. Because they knew they would have big fun.
D. Because everyone did well in the practice.
23.By showing the picture of a chain, Kellan wanted the kids to understand .
A. the value of winning B. the purpose of practice
C. the importance of trying D. the power of teamwork
B
It is never too late to develop great study habits. If you’re starting a new school year, or you just want to improve your grades and school performance, proper study habits will help you. You’ll find that it does not take that long to form study habits and you may study differently from your friends, but your study habits are not wrong!
Kelly and Maria are best friends with a lot of identical interests. They love doing things together, such as going to movies and concerts, shopping, or just sitting at a small cafe. Since they take a lot of the same school subjects, they would love to study together, but they find this impossible. Their working styles are so completely different that they can’t be in the same room while they are studying!
Kelly would like to study in a clean, open space, while Maria works best with books, papers and other things around her. Kelly prefers to study in a totally silent room, but Maria loves to play music or even have the TV on. Kelly can sit for hours without moving, and often gets all her homework done in one sitting. Maria, however, is always getting up, and says that she thinks best when she’s on the move.
You might be asking yourself: which way of studying gets better results Many people believe that a silent, tidy setting is the way to go, but that doesn’t necessarily seem true. Some research has even shown that outside noise and untidiness help some people focus their attention, because it makes them form a “wall” in their mind around what they are doing and improves their focus.
So, if you’re a student who chooses to study while sitting at a table in a busy shopping center, don’t worry about it. If you work in total silence, that’s OK, too. Judging from Kelly’s and Maria’s study habits, the best way to study is the way that works for you. In their very different ways, both of them do well in school, and both finish their work within the required time as well.
24.What do we know from Kelly’s and Maria’s study habits
A. The students who like to study in silence can study well.
B. Different students have different habits in their studies.
C. We can form good study habits by finishing homework.
D. People with different study habits can’t become friends.
25.The word “identical” in Paragraph 2 probably means ________.
A. secret B. special C. same D. simple
26.Which of the following would be the best title for the passage
A. Ways to Improve Your Study Habits.
B. Are You Studying the “Right” Way
C. Is It Good to Study with Your Friends
D. Advice to Help You Make More Friends.
27.According to the passage, the writer believes that ________.
A. we can have a wall to avoid the outside noise to improve the focus
B. successful students should practice a lot to improve their study skills
C. proper study habits can help students make progress in their studies
D. study together can help both of the friends get better grades in school
C
Achieving a goal and achieving happiness are two different things. Dreams and goals are important because they help us measure (衡量) progress—you won’t care if you’re getting closer to Rome unless you are trying to get to Rome. But progress, not meeting a goal, is what brings true happiness.
In 2011, researchers studied the day-to-day well-being of 238 workers at seven companies. They found that satisfaction is not from big wins, but from the progress in meaningful work. Other researchers have found that progress always beats achievement when it comes to happiness. It seems that humans are often excited about improvement. For example, my goal is to save $10,000, but what makes me happy is that I save more this week than last week.
To work towards a big goal in the hope of getting happiness is sometimes, unexpectedly, to set yourself up for unhappiness. Some researchers have argued that when a goal is a true end for progress, the sudden stop of moving forward can lead to a feeling of emptiness. As a friend told me, “I always thought there would be no better feeling than the day I saw I had a No.1 New York Times bestseller. And when it finally happened, I felt nothing.” Worse than feeling nothing, you might have a little depression (沮丧) in the days after a big achievement like winning a prize.
One explanation for these problems has to do with dopamine (多巴胺), which gives us a sense of pleasure when we expect a happy ending. Dopamine rises before you achieve a goal and falls afterward. However, when we focus on the process and the progress we make, we find that our attitude towards goals changes. We begin to see each step as a learning experience, and we learn to celebrate the small wins. This shift leads to a more positive outlook on life and can finally lead to greater happiness.
By enjoying the process and celebrating the progress, we can feel a sense of satisfaction. So, next time you find yourself focusing on the end goal, remember that true happiness lies in the progress you make along the way.
28.The example of saving money in Paragraph 2 is to show ________.
A. achieving a goal is what people expect
B. meaningful progress leads to satisfaction
C. a good habit can bring us more happiness
D. the result may be more important than the process
29.What is Paragraph 3 mainly about
A. How people get a sense of pleasure.
B. How people get away from emptiness.
C. What problems goal achieving can bring.
D. What feelings making progress can produce.
30.The word “shift” in Paragraph 4 probably means “________”.
A. goal B. wish C. change D. search
31.What is the writer’s main purpose in writing this passage
A. To call on people to value the process in going after goals.
B. To advise people to work towards their dreams in life.
C. To explain why people fail to notice progress.
D. To introduce what a meaningful life is like.

32.When you take notes in your classes, are you confident that you’ll actually go back and look over them Or do you just write out your notes in class and then completely forget all of the information you wrote down A useful note-taking method can not only save you precious time and energy, but also help you better understand what you learn.
This well-known note-taking method is called the Cornell Note-taking System. It was first developed in the 1940s by education professor Walter Pauk at Cornell University to help students learn. According to Cornell Notes, each page is divided into three sections: the note-taking column, the cue column (提示栏) and summary space. It’s very easy. You just need to draw two lines on your note page, leaving a 2.5-inch margin on the left and a 2-inch margin on the bottom.
The note-taking column, which is the biggest space, is used to write down notes while you are in class or reading an article. The key point is that you don’t write down what you hear word by word. It requires you to be very brief, using short phrases, symbols or keywords to replace long sentences.
To help with future review, you can write some related questions on the left. The next step is to cover the note-taking column with a sheet of paper or your hand. Then, by only looking at the questions for key words, try to repeat the content in your own words.
The summary space is designed to help you reflect on what you’ve learned. Questions may also be useful. For example, what’s the significance of these facts What principles are they based on What’s beyond them You can also write down your own ideas and personal feelings. Don’t forget to review from time to time so that you will remember the information more easily.
Practice makes perfect. After a few months of using this handy note-taking method, you are sure to become the note-taking star of your class. And even better, you’ll finally be able to remember what you have learned.
(1) Who first developed the Cornell Note-taking System _____________________________________________
(2) What is the biggest space used to do _____________________________________________
(3) Why is the summary space designed ______________________________________________
(4) Would you like to use this note-taking method Why or why not _____________________________________________
