Go for it!

In eastern Africa, a volcano (火山) rises more than 19,000 feet into the sky. It’s Mount Kilimanjaro, one of the world’s tallest mountains. Every year, thousands of people try to climb to the top. Fewer than half succeed.

Montannah Kenney of Texas was one of the few who succeeded. She climbed the mountain with her mom last year, when she was just 7! She was one of the youngest climbers ever to get to the top. “It felt great to reach my goal (实现目标) ,” Montannah said.

Her adventure began about two years ago. Montannah found out her mom was planning to climb Kilimanjaro. She asked to go too. “I wanted to see what it was like above the clouds,” she said.

The Kenneys knew it was important to be prepared. They practiced climbing on hills near their home. And they did a study. They found that they had to be ready for all kinds of weather. The bottom of Kilimanjaro is warm, but the top is snowy and cold. The Kenneys also learned that climbers can get altitude sickness (高原反应), because of climbing very high too quickly. So they planned a route that would help them go slow.

Montannah and her mom started in March, 2018. Guides showed them the way. On the six-day climb, they climbed for nine hours or more each day. And it rained or snowed almost the whole time.

One day, Montannah felt sick to her stomach (恶心). She and her mom worried it might be altitude sickness. They thought about turning back. But after resting for a bit, Montannah felt better. She refused (拒绝) to give up. Two days later, she made it to the top of the mountain. “I was finally above the clouds!” she said.

43. When Montannah was 7, she ________.

A. became the first climber        B. had a trip in Texas with her mom

C. began to study eastern Africa    D. climbed to the top of Kilimanjaro

44. From Paragraph 4, we can know ________.

A. the weather there was nice        B. the family really needed others’ help

C. it was important to get ready    D. Montannah finally reached her goal

45. What happened to Montannah when climbing?

A. She got lost on the way.        B. There was little food to eat.

C. She didn’t feel very well.        D. There wasn’t a safe place to rest.

46. Montannah’s story tells us ________.

A. when facing difficulties, set a new goal

B. if you want to reach your goal, work for it

C. the top of the mountain is the most beautiful

D. children should learn how to climb mountains

C

Some people think kindness (善行) is something completely selfless (无私的) that we do out of love and care, while others believe it is just a clever way to become more popular and get something good. However, a study shows that being kind to others can actually make us happy in different ways. In fact, even just thinking about our kindness in the past may make our mood (心情) better. But why and how does kindness make us so happy? Let’s learn about it.

Contagious (有感染力的) smiling

Being kind can make someone smile and if you see that smile for yourself, it might be enjoyable. A study says that seeing someone else show a feeling naturally makes the same parts of our brains start to work, as if we had the same feeling. For example, you may find yourself laughing just because someone else is laughing.

Righting a wrong

Sadness can also be contagious. When someone else feels bad, it could also make us feel down. This is quite true for close friends and family. Doing a kind act ( 行 为 ) can make someone sad feel better. This can also make us feel good because we are putting something right.

___________________________

Being kind opens up many different ways to start a social connection with someone. Kind acts, like buying someone a thoughtful present or even just a coffee, build up friendships, and that in itself can better our mood. Volunteering (志愿服务) also opens up new groups of people to connect with, both other volunteers and the people you are helping.

Kindness comes back around

A psychology study shows that being kind to others may give in return. Someone might remember that you helped them out last time, and they’ll be more likely to help you in the future. Also, one person being kind can make others in the group kind, too. For example, if you make cakes for your co-workers, it will catch on, so someone does it each month. That is more days you’re getting cakes than giving them.

The story doesn’t end there. Being kind may better your mood, but a study has also shown that being in a good mood can make you kind. This makes it a wonderful two-way street.

47. The study in Paragraph 1 shows _______.

A. everyone is completely selfless

B. kindness can make us feel happy

C. love and care are helpful in our life

D. we can use kindness to become rich

48. _______ is an example of a kind act.

A. Leaving someone who feels bad    B. Working in a shop to make cakes

C. Laughing at someone around you    D. Joining a group to be a volunteer

49. Which of the following can be the best title for Paragraph 4?

A. Making connections                B. Opening up a group

C. Helping other people                D. Building up friendships

50. What can we learn from the passage?

A. One can get success in a good mood.

B. We do kind acts to get them in return.

C. Kindness makes us and others feel good.

D. It’s difficult to help other people be kind.

六、阅读短文，根据短文内容回答问题。（共6分，每小题2分）

Body language across the world

It’s well-known that we all send messages through body language, however, sometimes it can be easy to forget that each culture has its own body language. Understanding (理解) body language in other countries is key to successful communication (交流), especially when we know nothing about a foreign language.

Eye contact (接触)

In many countries such as in the USA, Australia or UK and in Western Europe, looking the person in the eyes when talking shows your respect (尊敬) for the speaker. It means that you are interested in and paying attention to what is said. However, in other cultures in Asia, too much eye contact is not polite and even disrespectful.

Handshakes

Shaking hands is a usual way to greet in many cultures. In Romania, for example, only men usually shake hands. And they do it every time they meet, not just the first! In England, however, it’s unusual to shake hands.

The “V” sign

In the United States, the “V” sign means “peace”. However, it can be very rude in other places such as the UK, Australia and South Africa when the back of the hand is facing the other person.

Head movements

In many countries, nodding your head usually means that you agree to something. But for Bulgarians and Greeks, it means quite the opposite. And in India, people move their heads from side to side to show they are actively listening.

Truly, each person is different and understands body language according to his or her culture and personal experience. So the best thing to do is to stay open-minded and learn more about other cultures.

51. How do you show your respect for the speaker in Western Europe?

52. What do people in India do to show they are actively listening?

53. Why is it important to learn body language across the world?

I’m not a shopaholic!

I don’t like shopping at all! I admit it. I hate ( 讨 厌 ) shopping because it 1 me lots of time, money and energy in the past.

In fact, I hate it so much that I only go clothes shopping once a year. I wait for the 2 to start, and then go into town to buy all my clothes for the year. I shop around for the cheapest things not the ones I like best. I try them on and, as long as they fit me, I buy them. I don’t keep the receipt (收据), as I know I won’t go back to the shop if there are 3 ! Also, I always pay cash, as I don’t want to get a huge credit card bill (信用卡账单) at the end of the month. And if I really need something, I do online shopping. And I usually have a shopping list. It’s very 4 —you can look through it at home and make your decisions without a shop assistant around you trying 5 you to buy something you don’t want!

So, in this way I can save much time to do something 6 to me.

二、阅读理解（共8分，每小题2分）

阅读短文，根据短文内容，从短文后各题所给的 A、B、C、D 四个选项中， 选择最佳选项。

Should I have ten more minutes in bed? Do I wear the new shirt or the old one? Decisions (决定), decisions; they take up a lot of our thinking time.

It’s easy to become lost in decisions and it’s not surprising when you look at the numbers. While a child makes around 3,000 decisions a day, as you get older, you make about 35,000. More than two hundred of those decisions are about food. Besides that, our heads are filled with other choices about school, friends, and home. Sometimes, it seems that the easiest choice is to let someone else make the decisions for you whether you like it or not.

But I’m beginning to realize that you can learn how to make good decisions. There are ways to filter (筛选) your decisions and center on the important ones. For example, someone always wears a grey T-shirt. Do you know why? Well, it means they can center on important decisions and not spend a lot of time deciding what to wear. Although it might be important for you to wear the right shirt, you could probably make it easier by deciding what’s really important.

There are times when we seem to have little control ( 控 制 ) over the decisions we make. Picture this. You get a message from a friend that has upset (使烦恼) you. And you answer it without thinking it through which makes you feel good. However, you soon realize that you’ve been unkind and feel even more upset. A person reacting emotionally (情绪化地反应) often doesn’t make good choices.

So, how can you avoid (避免) making bad decisions? If possible, take time to “sleep on it” and consider the results. It’s also good to ask yourself how you’re feeling while you’re making the decision. If you don’t feel anything then be careful! That could be a sign that you aren’t making the correct decision. And my final tip: don’t make a decision on an empty stomach or when you’ve got “hanger”. That is the angry feeling you get when you’re hungry. After eating, you will be much more in control of your decision-making skills.

Despite all the advice out there, there will be times when you make the wrong decision, but that shouldn’t stop you from being natural and creative. The more decisions you make, the better you get at them, and then, you probably won’t make the same mistakes again!

7. It’s easy to become lost in decisions, because ________.

A. the number of decisions we make is exact

B. everyone makes lots of decisions each day

C. children like making decisions about food

D. we lose our heads in our school and home

8. The example in Paragraph 3 shows that ________.

A. it’s important for us to wear the right shirt

B. it’s easier for us to decide what to do next

C. we should center on our important decisions

D. we should spend little time making choices

9. Which of the following is TRUE about making decisions?

A. Filter your decisions and choose what you like most.

B. You’d better not make decisions when you’re hungry.

C. Making choices as soon as possible can be helpful.

D. Try to ask someone else to give you more advice.

10. What is the main purpose (主要目的) of the passage?

A. To tell us the right time to make good decisions.

B. To show us the advantages of making decisions.

C. To let us know the importance of making decisions.

D. To teach us some useful ways to make good decisions.

Two years ago, during the summer holiday, I went to Sanya with my parents. It was a great trip.

My mom took lots of photos for us. In the evening, we enjoyed delicious local food. On the following days, we travelled around the city and bought some presents for my grandparents.

请根据所听到的独白内容和提示词语，将所缺的关键信息填写在相应位置上。

Hi, everyone! I’m Chris. Today I’d like to give you some tips about how to stop losing things. First, have a routine. The easiest way to find your things is to always know where they are. Be sure to put your things in the same place both inside and outside your house, and then they are much harder to lose. Second, don’t put your things down. Never put your things down when you’re out of the house. Bring your own bag if it’s not comfortable to carry your keys or phone. Third, make your things easy to find. 90% of the time when you lose something, it’s right there in front of you, you just can’t see it. For example, change your dark phone cover to a bright one. Fourth, tidy your house and office. It’s easy to lose something in a messy room. Keeping everything in order will help you find things easily.
