One of the pleasant things about having an apartment is having neighbors. You may develop personal friendships with some of your neighbors. There may also be times when you have argument with your neighbors. There may be neighbors you just don’t get along with at all. So how can you get along well with your neighbors?
Your neighbors have the right to keep their living space as you do. Your neighbors have their own lifestyle and their own responsibilities. When you first move into an apartment, show respect to your neighbors. If you see them outside, say “hello”. Introduce yourself to them and tell them you just moved in. Be pleasant. Early argument with neighbors can cause you a bad reputation. You should avoid that. Don’t turn up your radio loud. Don’t speed up your car down the streets of the neighborhood.
If your neighbors or your landlord feels that you are causing a problem at any point, behave responsibly. It is not fun to suddenly be blamed for something, and it is easy to get defensive(防卫的) if this occurs. However, you need to accept that something you were doing has dissatisfied either your neighbors or your landlord or both of them. Listen to their stories carefully. Try to imagine yourself in their situation. Apologize for the problem you caused.
If you feel your neighbors are causing a disturbance(打扰)or being too loud, be dispassionate. For example, suppose that it’s two o’clock in the morning and you are woken up by loud noise from neighbors who are having a party. This is annoying
- 12 -
. You need to recognize that this is the first time this has happened. Recognize that your neighbors are human beings that make mistakes. Realize that there is time to solve your discomfort with your neighbors. With cool heads, proper communication, patience and consideration, you can solve this problem with your neighbors.
24. Paragraph 2 mainly suggests that we should be ___
A. careful and calm
B. friendly and considerate
C. kind-hearted and patient
D. responsible and easy-going
25. How should you react if your neighbors blame you for something?
A. Be defensive
B. Don’t take it seriously
C. Ask the landlord for help
D. Listen and try to be responsible
26. The last paragraph mainly tells us what to do when_________
A. neighbors try to anger us
B. we are blamed for something
C. neighbors cause a disturbance
D. we are woken up by landlord
27. What does the underlined word “dispassionate” in the last paragraph probably mean?
A. Calm B. Concerned C. Energetic D. Curious
C
There is a story about a man who lost his legs and left arm in an accident. After the accident, only a finger and thumb on his right hand remained.
He was a brilliant, creative, and educated man. He had gained a lot of experience while traveling around the world, so he became very depressed after his accident. He was afraid that he would spend the rest of his life suffering and would no longer be able to spend his life in a meaningful way. Then, he realized that he still had part of the function of his right hand and could still write even though it was very difficult. An idea occurred to him. “Why not write to other people who need encouragement?”
He wrote to the prison ministry about sending letters to the prisoners. The prison minister replied, “Writing to the prisoners is acceptable, but your letters will
- 12 -
not be answered.”
Filled with excitement, the man knew he could write his letters. He began sending one-way messages of God’s love, hope, strength, and encouragement. He wrote twice a week, testing his strength and ability to the limit. He poured his heart and soul into his words and shared his experience, sense of humor, optimism, and faith.
It was difficult to write those letters, especially without hope of a reply. One day he received a letter from the prison ministry. It was a short note from the officer who monitored and checked the prison mail.
The letter said, “Please write on the best paper you can afford. Your letters are passed from cell (囚房) to cell until they literally (逐字地) fall to pieces!”
No matter what circumstances life may present, we all have unique experiences, abilities, and God-given talents. We can discover ways to reach others who badly need messages of encouragement and strength.
28. In order to live meaningfully, what did the man begin to do?
A. Write to other people who need encouragement. B. Receive the school education.
C. Meet the people who are depressed. D. Help other people with lost arms and legs.
29. What does the prison minister’s reply suggest?
A. The man was not allowed to write to the prisoners.
B. The prisoners were not allowed to answer the letters.
C. The man couldn’t go to see the prisoners himself.
D. He was not sure if the prisoners liked receiving the letters.
30. What can we know about the officer’s short note?
A. The man would be offered free paper to write letters on.
B. Some of the prisoners were not satisfied with his letters.
C. His letters were very popular among the prisoners.
D. The prisoners eagerly wanted to write back to the man.
31. Which can be the best title of the passage?
A. Stories about a Helpful Person B. Relationship between Writers and Prisoners
C. Popularity of Special Letters D. Special Letters of Encouragement
D
In an age when technology is everywhere, it’s not surprising that even young children are getting into the action. The iPad was released six years ago. This tablet
- 12 -
computer from Apple has a large, multi-touch screen that kids can play learning games on.
Sure toddlers(初学步者) can operate an iPad, but at what age is it safe to let them use it? According to the American Academy of Pediatrics, children under the age of 2 should have no screen time at all. This includes not only television but also other electronics, such as computers, cellphones, video games and tablets, including the iPad. During the first two years of life, children’s brains are growing greatly and it can be confusing for them to tell the differences between the real world and what they are seeing on the screen. After age 2, an iPad is fine within reasonable limits .
Using the iPad can have benefits for kids. In a two-week study conducted by PBS, involving children 3 to 7, it was found that educational apps can improve a child’s vocabulary by as much as 31 percent in two weeks. Ann Densmore, an expert in speech and language development, said in an article on Harvard Health that there are even iPad apps that are helpful for children in speech and language therapy(治疗).
While there are some benefits to children using an iPad as an educational tool, there are also some disadvantages to be aware of. No electronic device(设备) can replace the role of human interaction. It’s important that young children learn by doing and not by watching. Also an iPad can be addictive(上瘾的) when used too much. Even though it’s OK for 2-year-olds to use an iPad, children up to the age of 3 will learn better from real world experiences than from any type of electronics, especially when it comes to language.
When parents decide to let their children start using the iPad, it’s important that they made some rules and limitations… .
32. The American Academy of Pediatrics shows that _____.
A. parents usually let kids over two use an iPad
B. iPads aren’t different from other electronics
C. kids under two shouldn’t use an iPad
D. kids usually use an iPad in moderation
33. What does the study conducted by PBS mainly show?
A. Educational apps are popular with kids.
B. Using an iPad can help kids learn words.
C. An iPad is used in speech and language therapy.
D. Kids can improve vocabulary in various ways.
- 12 -
34. What’s the author’s attitude toward kids using an iPad to learn language?
A. Interested B. Supportive C. Critical D.Central
35. The text is probably followed by_____
A. how children use an iPad.
B. some detailed rules and limitations.
C. the author’s opinion on iPad
D. why children love using an iPad
第二节(共5小题,每小题2分,共10分)
根据短文内容,从短文后的七个选项中选出能填入空白处的最佳选项。选项中有两项为多余选项。
Living a more simple life can improve how we think, feel and move around in the world. Here are ways to simplify your life while creating space for happiness.
Give up your negative thoughts. As humans, we spend a lot of our time being caught up in negative thoughts that bring nothing good into our lives. 36 They can grow rapidly and cause unhappiness and do nothing to improve our quality of life.
Reduce the amount of screen time. 37 While watching TV and endless YouTube videos or playing computer games can be a nice way to relax, too much can have a negative influence on your lives.
Cut down on social media. 38 They say they feel less confident after comparing their lives against those of their online friends. So simplify your life by cutting down on social media-not only for your own health of mind but to stop the endless checking every several minutes.
39 In the effort to make yourselves better people and improve yourselves, you often set goals but having too many goals can prevent you from achieving them.
Eat fewer unhealthy foods. 40 Cutting down on bad foods will not only help you feel much better and give you more energy.
