Roger Crawford had everything he needed to play tennis—except two hands and a leg. When Roger's parents saw their son for the first time, they saw a baby with a thumb-like thing that stuck directly out of his right forearm and a thumb and one finger stuck out of his left forearm. The
baby’s left leg withered (萎缩)and was later cut off.
Roger’s parents never allowed him to feel sorry for himself or take advantage of people because of his disability. “Once I got into trouble because my school papers were continually late,” explained Roger who had to hold his pencil with both “hands" to write slowly. "I asked Dad to write a note to my teachers, asking for two more days for my assignments. Instead, my dad made me start writing my papers two days early!"
Roger’s father always encouraged him to get involved in sports. At age 12, Roger managed to win a spot on the school football team. Before every game, Roger would visualize his dream of scoring a touchdown (触地得分). Then one day he got his chance. The ball landed in his arms and off he ran as fast as he could on his artificial leg toward the goal line. But a guy from the other team caught up with Roger, grabbing his left ankle. Roger tried to pull his artificial leg free, but instead it was pulled off. Then, Roger started hopping towards the goal line and scored a touchdown. Even better than the six points was the look on the face of the other kid who was holding my artificial leg,"said Roger.
Roger's love of sports grew and so did his self-confidence. Roger went on to play tennis. He practiced every day and was soon playing and losing matches. But Roger persisted (坚持不懈). He practiced and practiced and played and played. Roger became obsessed with tennis and in time he started to win.
Roger finished his tennis career with 22 wins and 11 losses. He later became the first physically handicapped tennis player to be recognized as a teaching professional by the United States Professional Tennis Association.
21. What can we know about Roger Crawford?
A. He was born with only one leg.
B. He wasn’t affected by his disability.
C. He benefited much from his parents.
D. He always finished his homework punctually.
22. How did the kid probably feel when holding Roger’s artificial leg?
A. Excited B. Confident C. Calm D. Shocked
23. What does the underlined part “became obsessed with” in paragraph 4 probably mean?
A. Became addicted to B. Became uninterested in.
C. Became dependent on. D. Became inspired by
B
Having a car in New York City can often be a pain, which explains why the majority of its residents rely on a combination of taxis and public transportation to get around.
But public transportation in the Big Apple has its fair share of problems as well. While other international cities like London and Paris are quickly expanding their subway systems, new upgrades in Manhattan have frequently been delayed for various reasons.
That topic was on the mind of Gov. Andrew M. Cuomo, who went to Israel for Trade Fairs and Exhibitions. While in Israel, he met with several Israeli companies in the hope of finding new technologies that could help ease New York’s transportation problems.
One such company was the Tel Aviv-based Axilion, which is a leader in the smart mobility space. Among other things, their technology adjusts traffic lights to give preference to oncoming public transportation vehicles like buses.
In recent years, Israel is taking the lead when it comes to transportation technology, leading some to call its city, Tel Aviv, the new Motor City. The popular traffic app Waze, which was acquired by Google in 2013, is based in Israel. Dozens of car companies—from Toyota to General Motors—have set up bases there. Mobileye, the world’s leading driverless car company, was set up in Israel. And it's not just big multi-national companies that are making headway there. For example, a small company called City Transformer designed a car that can fold while you're driving it through traffic and park in smaller spot.
Back in New York, the state has long strong ties with Israel. More than 500 Israeli-founded businesses now call New York home. It’s no wonder that Cuomo was optimistic upon his return. “For a long time, we focused on key areas that present opportunities for cooperation with Israeli companies,"he said, " and now I think the cooperation with Axilion in transportation will bring a win-win situation.
21. Why did M. Cuomo go to Israel?
A. To promote advanced technology. B. To attend a trade show.
C. To set up a technology company. D. To discuss traffic problems.
22. What is mainly talked about in the fifth paragraph?
A. Israel’s advanced transportation technology.
A. The development program of the city Tel Aviv.
B. The reasons why companies choose Israel as bases.
C. Israel’s leading position in transportation technology.
22. Where does this passage probably come from?
A. A trade agreement. B. A news report.
C. A press interview. D. A technology introduction.
C
First-grade classrooms with poor environments—not enough resources, teachers who feel disrespected by colleagues—have been linked to a higher number of mental health problems in students, according to a new study.
The study doesn’t prove that classrooms that face more challenges directly cause mental health problems in kids. However, “being in a classroom with a lack of resources might disadvantageously affect children’s mental health because children are frustrated or disheartened by their surroundings,“said study lead author Melissa A. Milkie, a sociology professor at the University of Maryland.
“Teachers may also be more discouraged when they can’t teach properly due to the fact that they are missing key parts," she explained.
Milkie said the study shows that schools and teachers play important roles in children's mental health. "I think parents care a lot about their children’ s mental health—their emotional and behavioral well-being—but we as a society don't focus on that as much as we talk about and think about academic outcomes," Milkie said. The study is based on interviews with the parents and teachers of about 10,700 first-graders in the United States. The researchers found that students in classrooms with fewer resources, in terms of inadequate teaching materials and teachers who didn’t feel supported by colleagues, were more likely to experience problems in several mental health areas.
For teachers, to get the support and encouragement that they need from colleagues, including the principal (校长), is likely important for whether the teachers are able to create a classroom climate that helps children grow healthily. If teachers are feeling stressed out because they aren’t getting what they need from their colleagues, that stress may carry over to the kids.
Although the current study only looked at students in first grade, Milkie thinks the findings
would probably be very similar in higher grades. “ I would be surprised if there were different findings for older children,” she said.
21. Which of the following is given the most attention by the society according to Milkie?
A. Children’s mental health.
B. Students’ academic outcomes.
C. Teachers’ welfare.
D. Classroom environments.
22. How can we help teachers create a healthy classroom climate?
A. Support and encourage them.
B. Make students feel relaxed.
C. Help them with their family life.
D. Reduce their teaching tasks.
23. How does Milkie think the findings will be if a study is carried out in higher grades?
A. Surprising. B. Uncertain.
C. Almost the same. D. Completely different.
24. What can be the best title for the text?
A. Teachers Should Have Enough Teaching Materials
B. First-grade Classrooms Need Better Environments
C. Classroom Environments May Affect Kids' Mental Health
D. Schools Can Pay More Attention to Students’ Mental Health
第二节 七选五
Most English learners live in places in which English is not the main language.
Now we will share some mental exercises that can help.
Describe your day
31 So, they would think to themselves things like, "I put on my shirt. ” and “He drives the bus. " Then you can mentally make plans in the morning. You might tell yourself, " I'll take the train to class. 32 She said she booked a study room at the library for 2 p. m.”
Think in conversation
When you do this, you are imagining yourself speaking to someone else.
33 This is a great way to practice what you might say in a real conversation. For example,
let’s say the imaginary person asks you a question like, "What did you think of the award show last night?" How would you answer? Imagine the conversation and practice it in your head. You can do this out loud or in silence.
Take notes
For all of these exercises, there will of course be words and phrases that you do not know. So, at some point you will need to use a dictionary. If your skill level is high enough, you might consider using an English-to- English dictionary. Keeping a notebook helps you remember the situation which you needed that word or phrase for. 34
Practice it daily
So, how much time should you spend on these exercises? 35 When you're doing it every day, over and over again, little by little, that's the key. Because when you make things a habit, then it just comes into your mind and then, before you know it, really, you're thinking in English.
A. I' m studying with Paola today.
B. You’d better do a little every day.
C. You are asking the questions and thinking of replies.
D. When I leave the house, I’ m going to get an iced coffee.
E. A teacher asks his beginning-level students to describe their day.
F. This makes it easy to recall when you are in such a situation again.
G. It is suggested that you write down just five to ten new phrases each week.

In our contemporary culture, the prospect of communicating with - or even looking at - a stranger is virtually unbearable. Everyone around us seems to agree by the way they cling to their phones, even without a 36 on a subway. It’s a sad reality - our desire to avoid interacting with other human beings- because there’s 37 to be gained from talking to the stranger standing by you. But you wouldn’t know it, 38 into your phone. This universal protection sends the 39:“Please don’t approach me.” What is it that makes us feel we need to hide 40 our screens?
One answer is fear, according to Jon Wortmann, an executive mental coach. We fear
rejection, or that our innocent social advances will be 41 as “weird.”
We fear we’ll be 42 . We fear we’ll be disruptive. Strangers are inherently 43 to us, so we are more likely to feel 44 when communicating with them compared with our friends and acquaintances. To avoid this uneasiness, we 45 to our phones. “Phones become our security blanket,” Wortmann says. “They are our happy glasses that protect us from what we perceive is going to be more 46 .”
But once we rip off the band-aid, tuck our smart phones in our pockets and look up, it doesn’t 47 so bad. In one 2011 experiment, behavioral scientists Nicholas Epley and Juliana Schroeder asked commuters to do the unthinkable: “Start a 48 . They had Chicago train commuters talk to their fellow 49 .
“When Dr. Epley and Ms. Schroeder asked other people in the same train station to 50 how the would feel after talking to a stranger, the commuters thought their 51 would be more pleasant if they sat on their own,” The New York Times summarizes. Though the participants didn’t expect a positive experience, after they 52 with the experiment, “not a single person reported having been embarrassed.”
53 , these commutes were reportedly more enjoyable compared with those without communication, which makes absolute sense, 54 human beings thrive off of social connections. It's that 55 : Talking to strangers can make you feel connected.

For many months, I noticed an elderly man get on at one of the stops and always head to the back of the bus.
He wore the same clothes every day. The clothes were well-worn, but clean. I could tell he led a simple life. I had never spoken to this gentleman, but he usually gave me a smile when he passed by. One day, it was snowing so I drove to work. for I didn’t want to be late. I noticed the gentleman standing on a street corner. He held a sign in his hand asking for money.
I went home that day and wrote him a note saying I was grateful for what I had in my life and that I wanted to share some of it with him. In the note I wrote: Hi, I am Larissa. Maybe I seem like a stranger to you, but I am on the same bus as you almost every day. I saw you the other day on the street, and I hope this money can help you. I wish you a pleasant week.

作文(一):
Dear sir or madam,
Knowing from the Internet that some part-time waiters are needed to work in your restaurant during the coming winter vacation, I’m writing to apply for the job.
First, having been learning English for ten years, I have a good command of English especially spoken English. Besides, I’m energetic and easy-going, which makes it possible for me to serve well at work. Most importantly, I have done part-time jobs many times during holidays so I have enough experience. Hope my application can be considered.
I'm looking forward to your reply.
Yours sincerely,
Li Hua
作文(二):
I put a small amount of money in an envelope. And the next day when the elderly-man got on the bus I gave him the note and money in the small envelope. I didn't say much to him, but Just smiled a little. And he smiled in return. The next day, when we got on the bus again, he handed me a note, also with a smile on his face.
The note read: “Hi Larissa. Thank you very much for your generosity. The money will be used to buy next months bus pass. Your note certainly provided a very pleasant, uplifting start to the week. I hope you continue to enjoy a good life. -John.” I will keep his note forever! We now smile and nod to each other on the bus every morning. I didn’t realize what happiness a small act of kindness could bring me. I think I lead a charmed life!

Text 1
M: I’ve forgotten a lot of English since my summer in China. I think I need to take a course to refresh my memory.

Text 2
M: Sandra, this report has several things missing, like some names of the team members
and a description of our second study. Would you mind fixing it up for me before the presentation?
W: I’ve got your back, Ned, just like in college. (2)
Text 3
M: Did you enjoy your music lesson today?
W: I did. I had an exciting song to learn but it was very difficult. I feel like I need a rest. (3)
M: Sit down and relax, and I’ll bring you a cup of tea.
Text 4
W: It’s easier for you to jump out of a plane than to fly a kite, dear. I guess army training doesn’t teach you everything.
M: Here, take the kite. At least we brought a remote-controlled airplane. (4)
Text 5
W: I’ve earned $200 extra this month. Will that be enough to pay off our bills?
M: No, honey. We need 10 times that. (5) Don’t worry, though. When I get promoted, it will come with a $20,000 yearly pay raise.
Text 6
W: Let’s get some friends together on Saturday and go to that new restaurant down the road. (6)

Text 7
M: You’re going to hurt your eyes with all of that blue light coming from your phone at night, especially lying here on your bed. (8)
W: What do you mean?
M: Your phone sends out some light waves that aren’t very good for your eyes. You can get
a program that changes the light color. That will make your eyes less tired. (9)
W: All right. I’ll go to the app store now. Which program are you using?
M: I have Night Shift. There are many, like Twilight.
W: I’ll go with this one: Blue Light Filter.
M: Sounds good. But even better than making the light less annoying is to shut your phone off, so you can get to sleep. What’s more, a physical book is much better, in my opinion.

W: Can you please call someone for me? I can’t miss my flight.

M: I understand, ma’am. Traveling can be stressful. Good luck!
Text 10
Good afternoon. My name is Ann Walker, and I’m so thankful that the Junior Explorers of America invited me here today. We’re going to discuss what you should do if you get lost in nature, both at night and during the day. First, if it’s light outside, get to the highest area you can. (17) If you see a house or a car, don’t start walking toward it right away. Just draw a quick map that you can follow. Second, if you have food and water, you’ll want to know exactly how much you have left at all times, or at least how often you can have some. Avoid eating or drinking a lot at any one time. Third, if you have to spend the night, find a flat, dry place and build a fire to stay warm. (18) If you think dangerous animals might try to hurt you, find a sharp stick or a rock for protection. (19) If you do see an animal during the night, make loud noises and wave your arms in the air, but do not try to run away. You want to look as scary as possible, not scared. At last, I think the best thing is to look for a river or a road, which should lead you closer to other travelers at some point, even if you have no idea where it goes. In fact, this is how most people get rescued. (20)
