Starting and keeping friendship requires effort and commitment. Many of us let our lives become so busy with work and other commitments that we don't get around to scheduling time for pleasure and renewal with the friends, relatives and acquaintances we already have.‎ Making the effort to call your friends more regularly and to accept more of the invitations you receive from others can improve your social life in a hurry!‎ Are there any people you could call right now and be assured of a pleasant welcome? Are there people that you could count on to help you in time of difficulty? Can you have close talks with them? Do you have fun when you are together? Are you happy to have them in your life?‎ If you haven't seen much of them lately, is it because you have become too busy? Have you grown apart? Was there an argument?‎ If the main reason why you haven't been getting together with the people you already know is that you have gotten too busy, take a good look at how you spend your time. Compare it with your real values and priorities in life. Is your busy lifestyle really bringing you the quality of life that you want?‎ If you have become too busy for friends, why has this happened? Are you seeking material toys in your life at the expense of relationships with other human beings? Have you allowed your time to be overcommitted because you never say “No” to anyone? Do you insist on doing things yourself that could be left to others? If so, why? Do you believe that everything depends on you?‎ Examine whether the way you are now spending your time accurately reflects your deepest values and priorities. Make sure that you schedule adequate time for the things that are truly most important to you.‎ 10‎ If you really want to keep friends in your life, make a space in your schedule, and a space in your heart for them.‎ 文章大意：本文是一篇议论文。你是不是感到生活中缺少朋友？如果是这样，那么也许是因为你忙于工作而疏远了朋友。交朋友和维持友谊需要努力和承诺，因此，不论工作多么繁忙，都应该留出时间给朋友。‎ ‎1．In this passage the author mainly discusses ________.‎ A．how to balance friendship and work B．how to spend our spare time C．whether we should keep friendship D．whether we should invite friends to dinner 答案：A　主旨大意题。通读全文可知，文章主要就繁忙的工作状态下不要忘了和朋友联系而展开讨论，讲述了如何去平衡友谊和工作的关系。故A项正确。‎ ‎2．Which of the following doesn't indicate a good relationship?‎ A．You have someone to count on when you are in trouble.‎ B．You have someone to have close talks with.‎ C．You feel depressed with others in life.‎ D．You have fun when you are with someone.‎ 答案：C　细节理解题。根据第三、四段可知，如果你遇到困难时有依靠，有人和你进行亲密交流，你和别人在一起能得到乐趣，说明你和他人关系良好。由此可知，A、B、D三项能表明友谊良好。故选C项。‎ ‎3．The reason why you have become too busy for friends may be the following except that ________.‎ A．you spend too much time seeking material toys in your life B．you feel it difficult to keep friendship C．you stick to doing everything all by yourself D．you never refuse whatever other people ask you to do 答案：B　细节理解题。根据倒数第三段第二至四句“Are you seeking material toys... Have you allowed your time to be overcommitted because you never say ‘No’ to anyone? Do you insist on doing things yourself that could be left to others？”可排除选项A、C和D。故选B项。‎ ‎4．The best title for the passage may be ________.‎ A．Too busy for Friendship?‎ B．Too busy with work?‎ C．How to Spend Your Time 10‎ D．How to Make New Friends 答案：A　标题概括题。通过对全文的整体理解可知，文章重点论述了生活中淡忘了朋友可能是自己太忙的缘故。故A项正确。‎ D Turn gadgets off for better vacation It’s that time of the year again:school has started in full swing,homework is piling up and you realize that you can’t possibly wait for summer next year.‎ ‎“I need a holiday,” you may be thinking.‎ But wait—is it a holiday that you truly need?When we think of holidays,we think of traveling,beaches,fun,and adventure.But the reality is,we spend most of our holidays on our personal devices.Smartphones have taken the world by storm,influencing the manner we interact with each other.Does this sound like you?If so,it sounds like you need a digital detox (数码产品戒毒期).‎ One of the best things about a digital detox is the fact that anyone can do it.Whether you are a businessman or a student,everyone needs some time away from technology.‎ Having a tech-free holiday is becoming increasingly popular especially among families because it enables them to spend quality time with each other without being distracted by texting,emails,and social media.‎ While it may seem that sending a quick text message or uploading a photo to WeChat doesn’t take so much time,these things eventually add up without us even knowing it.‎ It was discovered in a study conducted by a travel site that 90 percent of Britons spend more than four hours a day using their gadgets while they are on holiday.‎ Whether to give yourself a digital detox is a difficult decision to make,but it may be just the thing you need to cleanse (清洗) your mind,body,and soul.‎ To help you along,it is probably a good idea to choose a remote area,somewhere 10‎ ‎ close to nature,where you can truly immerse (沉浸其中) yourself and unwind,and most importantly,not be tempted to switch on your smartphone.‎ Taking a tech-free holiday would be a good time to pick up something new,or return to hobbies which you never had time for.You could sketch the view of the coast,or take photos with your old film camera.If you’re going with friends or family,perhaps bring along some board games to spend time rekindling (重新点燃) tired relationships.‎ In today’s fast-paced world,it’s important to find time to stop and smell the roses—without taking a selfie at the same time,that is.‎ ‎1.What are the first three paragraphs mainly about?‎ A.The wide use of smartphones across the world.‎ B.Changes in the way people spend holidays.‎ C.Why people are in need of a digital detox.‎ D.What people truly need when under pressure.‎ ‎2.According to the text,a tech-free holiday tends to make people 　　　. ‎ A.feel bored and get distracted easily B.enjoy each other’s company better C.find it hard to make decisions D.interact worse with others ‎3.What can we conclude from the text?‎ A.A digital detox works for everyone.‎ B.A digital detox offers people time to pick up new skills.‎ C.A digital detox means going to a remote area for a holiday.‎ D.The first step of a digital detox is to find a new hobby.‎ ‎4.What is the author’s attitude towards “digital detox”?‎ A.Supportive.　　　　　　B.Doubtful.‎ C.Uninterested. D.Critical.‎ ‎1.C　段落大意题。根据第三段“But the reality is...need a digital detox(数码产品戒毒期).”可知,这三段的大意是分析人们为什么需要数码产品戒毒期。‎ ‎2.B　推理判断题。根据倒数第二段最后一句可知B项正确。‎ ‎3.B　推理判断题。根据“Taking a tech-free holiday would be a good time to pick up 10‎ ‎ something new,or return to hobbies which you never had time for.”可知B项正确。‎ ‎4.A　观点态度题。根据最后一段可知,作者支持人们参与digital detox,让自己摆脱快节奏生活所带来的压力。‎ E Few of us haven’t read Cinderella,the story of a young woman living in poverty who meets the prince of her dreams.Some might not want to admit it,but there is a hidden Cinderella in everyone’s heart—we all wish we could achieve recognition or success after a period of obscurity(默默无闻).‎ Mary Santiago has that secret dream,too.Her story is featured in AnotherCinderellaStory,a film set in a US high school.‎ Mary is shy but loves to dance.Compared with other girls,she is unable to see.However,her world changes completely when a famous teenager pop singer,Joey Parker,appears.Joey is everything the rest of the boys in her class are not—kind,handsome and desirable.Mary and Joey’s paths cross at a ball.They meet and fall in love with each other.But when Mary has to rush back home,she leaves behind her MP3 player,which becomes the only clue to find her.Joey has to find the girl of his dreams.Of course,there is a wicked(邪恶的) stepmother,who turns out to be Dominique Blatt and she takes in Mary after her dancer mother dies.Dominique treats Mary like a maid and does everything she can do to make sure Mary doesn’t get into the top dance school.Her two daughters are equally determined to stop Joey falling for Mary,even if that means embarrassing her.‎ The story,though it mostly follows Cinderella,does add a few modern day twists to the classic fairy tale.The film,unlike many high school films,does not focus on looks,although the actors are all beautiful.There is also a lot less materialism in AnotherCinderellaStory than in many similar movies.‎ ‎“The movie takes the Cinderella fairy tale as its jumping-off point,” writes movie critic Amber Wilkinson,“The focus is firmly on following your dream.”‎ ‎1.The first paragraph is mainly to 　　　. ‎ A.build interest and lead us to Mary’s secret dream 10‎ B.remind us why Cinderella is popular all the years C.inform us of the main topic of the whole passage D.tell us how interesting the fairy tale Cinderella is 答案:A 解析:段落大意题。由“...butthereisahiddenCinderellaineveryone’sheart—weallwish...”可知,第一段是为了引出下文的故事。‎ ‎2.Whatcanweinferfromthepassage?‎ A.JoeyisjustlikeotherboysinMary’sclass.‎ B.Mary’smotherinfluencesheralotinsinging.‎ C.Notmanypeoplehaveadreamtoberealised.‎ D.TheMP3playerhelpsJoeytofindMary.‎ 答案:D 解析:推理判断题。由“ButwhenMaryhastorushbackhome,sheleavesbehindherMP3player,whichbecomestheonlycluetofindher.Joeyhastofindthegirlofhisdreams.”一句可推知,那个MP3播放器帮助乔伊找到了玛丽。‎ ‎3.Thepassageismainlyabout　　　. ‎ A.anintroductiontoadanceschool B.areviewaboutafilm C.anessayaboutdreams D.anadvertisementofCinderella 答案:B 解析:主旨大意题。本文主要介绍了电影AnotherCinderellaStory的内容,并进行了评价,可见是一篇影评。‎ 10‎
