阅读下列短文,从每小题所给A 、B、C和 D 四个选项中,选出最佳选项。
A
Dear Editor,
I’m now a postgraduate student and have studied at top universities, but am troubled that my life
choices are conditioned by a need to prove myself, possibly resulting from a deep-rooted sense of
insecurity. At school, I based my self-worth on academic success. I care excessively (过度地) about
what impression I’m making and can’t bear the thought of displeasing people. How can I stop caring
what other people think?
Mr. Perfect
Dear Mr. Perfect,
You are living your life by externally referencing. This means your actions are guided by what
you imagine other people think of you. Your challenge is to become more internally referenced,
which means you can make choices guided by the experience of how things feel to you. Go with what
feels good, not with what you think would look good to others.
You don’t need to impress anyone. You are good enough exactly as you are. We are not
necessarily accepted by people because we impress them and, in fact, if we try too hard to do that, we
are more likely to be rejected. You don’t have to say “top” university, you can be proud of what you
have achieved, but without being competitive.
We do care about what people think about us. We want friendly colleagues and close friends-it
matters. People will want to be around you because they feel seen by you and you can get on each
other’s wavelengths, not because you are impressive. So let go of impressing and think more about
relating. Worthiness is not about being a top academic, it is about being a caring, curious human
being.
Philippa
21.According to Philippa, what should Mr. Perfect do to live by “internally referencing”?
A.Seek others’ advice. B.Make sensible choices.
C.Follow his own heart. D.Leave good impressions.
22.Why should Mr. Perfect stop impressing others?
A.He can never be good enough. B.He is a worthy person as he is.
C.His relationship decides his worth. D.His academic performance matters.

23.What does the underlined word “relating” in paragraph 4 mean?
A.Showing empathy. B.Turning for help.
C.Establishing new relationships. D.Pleasing people.

Some of my earliest memories involve sitting with my dad in his study every night when he
came home from the office. I’d watch as he put his personal items away: his watch, wallet, comb and
car keys. They would always occupy the same spot on the table every time.
Dad’s comb was jade green. I heard he bought it when he married Mum. Every night, he would
smile, hand me the comb and say, “Be a good girl and help Daddy clean it, OK?”
I was more than happy to do it. At age five, this kind of task brought me such joy. I would
excitedly turn the tap on, and then brush the comb with a used toothbrush as hard as I could. Satisfied
that I’d done a good job, I would proudly return the comb to Dad. He would smile at me, and place
the comb on top of his wallet.
About two years later, Dad left his sales job and started his own wholesale business. I started
primary school. That was when things started to change. Dad’s business wasn’t doing so well, and our
stable life started getting shaky. He didn’t come home as much as he used to. And when he did come
home, it was always late and I’d already be in bed. I started to get mad. Why didn’t he listen to Mum
and just stick to his old job? Why take the risk and place the whole family in trouble? Over the years,
I stopped waiting for him to come home, and stopped going downstairs to check on him.
Now 28, I’ve graduated from college and got a job. Dad’s business has also started to get back
on track. Yet the uncomfortable silence between Dad and me went on.
Two days before my birthday last year, Dad came home early. On that evening, I helped him
carry his bags into his study as usual. When I turned to leave, he asked me to clean his comb. I looked
at him for a while, then took the comb and headed to the sink.
It was a new comb. This one was brown. I hadn’t noticed that he’d changed it. After cleaning it, I
passed it back to Dad. He looked at it and smiled. But this time, I noticed something different. My dad
had aged. He had wrinkles next to his eyes when he smiled, yet his smile was still as heartwarming as
before.
24.From the first three paragraphs, we can learn ________.
A.the precious green comb of Dad was made of jade
B.the earliest memories with Dad were full of joy
C.the author wasn’t willing to clean the comb for Dad
D.the author would study together with Dad every evening
25.What probably made Dad decide to resign from his original job to start his own business?

A.That he was fired and had to make a living.
B.That he was eager to get everything on track.
C.That he hoped to earn a better life for the family.
D.That he wanted to keep the life for his family stable.
26.What emotional changes did the author experience when staying with Dad these years?
A.mad satisfied warm
B.satisfied worried angry
C.warm concerned uncomfortable
D.cheerful mad warm
27.What could be the best title for the text?
A.Evenings with Dad
B.A Comb of Jade Green
C.My Earliest Memories with Dad
D.Dad’s Sales Job & His Wholesale Business

If you make a list of the world’s top ten most challenging jobs, chances are that being a teacher
will not make the cut. But think about the discouraging task millions of educators face each day as
they try to shape a group of often bad-tempered, wild kids into intelligent, well-rounded individuals.
That surely has to be the toughest job in the world, especially given that there is no promotion or
bonus awaiting them even if they are wildly successful!
What if these all-important individuals that we often take for granted disappear from our lives?
That was what Project Ed and Participant Media’s Teach campaign asked filmmakers of all ages to
imagine in their recently-held competition. Entitled “A World Without Teachers”, its purpose was to
inspire more young people to become teachers. However, the 62 amazing video submissions also
serve as a reminder of how horrible things would be if we didn’t have these selfless individuals
guiding us through life. What was interesting is that even the youngest participants did not appear to
be happy at the idea of not having anybody telling them what to do.
High-school student Savannah Wakefield reflected if art as we know it today would have been
different without teachers. Would Monet have discovered his talent for impressionism? Los
Angeles-based Miles Horst, who won the 1000 USD prize for the best adult submission imagines a
world where teachers are replaced by a “brain box” in his fun lively entry.
Youth category winner Marina Bahama's video represents a fact we all know but often forget.
Teachers don’t just teach, they inspire—something that no electronic device, no matter how smart,
can do! So the next time you think your teacher is being “mean” for trying to channel you in the right
第4 页,共 10页
direction, imagine a life without him/her. We have a feeling it will not appear as rosy!
28.What is the text mainly about?
A.The significance of teachers.
B.The campaign to promote teachers’ status.
C.A survey of people’s views about teachers.
D.A competition to win the prize for the best teacher.
29.From the passage we can learn that .
A.teaching naughty kids is a very discouraging task
B.being a teacher is one of the most challenging jobs in the world
C.a successful teacher has the greatest chance to be promoted
D.teachers have little influence on kids’ individual development
30.What is the purpose of the project “A World Without Teachers”?
A.To attract kids to submit more videos of their teachers.
B.To encourage more people to go into teaching career.
C.To expect teachers to devote themselves to their jobs.
D.To remind students to appreciate teachers’ hard work.
31.What does the underlined sentence in Paragraph 4 suggest?
A.Teaching is quite different from other jobs.
B.The future of teachers’ work appears inspiring.
C.A world without teachers will be unimaginable.
D.Many people attach more importance to teaching.
D
Children’s Acquiring the Principles of Mathematics and Science
It has been pointed out that learning mathematics and science is not so much learning facts as
learning ways of thinking. It has also been emphasized that in order to learn science, people often
have to change the way they think in ordinary situations. These changes in ways of thinking are often
referred to as “conceptual changes”. But how do “conceptual changes” happen? How do children
change their ways of thinking as they learn in school?
The psychologist Piaget suggested an interesting hypothesis ( 假 说 ) relating to the process of
cognitive (认知的) change in children. Cognitive change was expected to result from the pupils’ own
intellectual activity. When met with a result that challenges their thinking, that is when faced with
conflict, pupils realize that they need to think again about their own ways of solving problems,
regardless of whether the problem is one in mathematics or in science. He hypothesised that conflict
brings about unbalance, and then triggers processes that ultimately produce cognitive changes. For
第5 页,共 10页
this reason, pupils need to be actively engaged in solving problems that will challenge their current
mode of reasoning. However, Piaget also pointed out that young children do not always abandon their
ideas in the face of conflicting evidence. They may actually abandon the evidence and keep their
theory.
Piaget’s hypothesis about how cognitive change occurs was later translated into an educational
approach which is now termed “discovery learning”. Discovery learning initially took what is now
considered the “lone learners” route. The role of the teacher was to select situations that challenged
the pupils’ reasoning; and the pupils’ peers had no real role in this process. However, it was
subsequently proposed that interpersonal conflict, especially with peers, might play an important role
in promoting cognitive change. This hypothesis has been investigated in many recent studies of
science teaching and learning.
Christine Howe and her colleagues, for example, have compared children’s progress in
understanding several types of science concepts when they are given the opportunity to observe
relevant events. In one study, Howe compared the progress of 8 to 12-year-old children in
understanding what influences motion down a slope. In order to figure out the role of conflict in group
work, they created two kinds of groups according to a pre-test: one in which the children had
dissimilar views, and a second in which the children had similar views. They found support for the
idea that children in the groups with dissimilar views progressed more after their training sessions
than those who had been placed in groups with similar views. However, they found no evidence to
support the idea that the children worked out their new conceptions during their group discussions,
because progress was not actually observed in a post-test immediately after the sessions of group
work, but rather in a second test given around four weeks after the group work.
32.Which of the following statements is in line with Piaget’s hypothesis?
A.Teachers play a big role in learning by explaining difficult concepts.
B.Teaching should be consistent in order to easily acquire knowledge.
C.Children can help each other make cognitive progress.
D.Cognitive progress mainly relies on children’s own intellectual activity.
33.The lone learner’ route is an educational approach which ________.
A.was adopted during discovery learning early on
B.requires help from the pupils’ peers
C.relies on how the teacher guides the students heavily
D.played an important role in cognitive change
34.Which statement describes Howe’s experiment with 8 to 12-year-old children correctly?
A.The most active children made the least progress according to a pre-test.
第6 页,共 10页
B.The children were evaluated on their abilities to understand a physics phenomenon.
C.The teacher aided the children to understand a scientific problem in group work.
D.All the children were working in mixed-ability groups to work out new conceptions.
35.It can be inferred from the last paragraph ________.
A.that children acquire more when learning in groups
B.that children opposing each other would learn slower
C.that the children were given a total of three tests, at different times
D.that there can be a satisfying result thanks to the duration of test

When faced with the decision to get out of bed or have a few more minutes of sleep, which do
you choose? 36
A sleep researcher Till Roen, who has recently conducted a study. 37 And while there
are no official numbers on snoozing (打盹), a quick survey of social media makes it clear that hitting
the snooze button is popular.
As to how the snooze button will affect your day, scientists have mixed opinions. Some scientists
think people who hit the snooze button in the mornings are actually clever, creative and happy. 38
“I feel that hitting the snooze button has got to be one of the worst things that ever happened to human
sleep,” researcher Jonathan Horowitz said. “The chances of you ‘snoozing’ and actually experiencing
a meaningful rest are close to zero.”
According to some sleep experts, you simply hit the snooze button. 39 And that will
throw yourself into a deep state of being sleepy. The body needs some time to wake up. Therefore,
when returning to what will be a light sleep for a brief period of time, you are putting your body back
into a sleep mode before waking it again. At that point your body won’t know what it wants, resulting
in a sort of half awaken state.
40 The key is to form a healthy sleep cycle. Focus your efforts on getting enough sleep
each night and waking up at the same time each day so that when your alarm goes off you feel rested.
A.In fact you are confusing your body and mind.
B.How can you really take advantage of an alarm clock?
C.It’s significant to make use of willpower to struggle off bed.
D.But some said that hitting the snooze button will ruin your day.
E.About 85 percent of Americans use an alarm clock to wake up.
F.Hopefully, the following ways will help you keep refreshed in the morning.

G.Believe it or not, that decision could make a difference in the rest of your day.

Anyone who has an interest in Dunhuang will have heard of Fan Jinshi. The Chinese
archaeologist 61 has spent more than half a century researching and preserving the caves at
the heart of the ancient Silk Road in Gansu Province 62 (know) as the “Daughter of
Dunhuang” in her field, though “protector” is probably a more fitting 63 (describe).
Fan has been studying the historical site since the early 1960s, first as an archaeology
undergraduate from Peking University, then as a conservationist when she became the deputy director
of the Dunhuang Research Academy in 1984, which serves to prevent the ancient site 64
being destroyed.
“It is over a thousand years old. It is an old person, an 65 (extreme) weak old person. It
has 66 (variety) illnesses. If you are a little careless, it could be gone. Gone forever,” Fan
says.
Today, thanks to the work of great 67 (archaeology) such as Fan, Dunhuang is proud of
the world’s largest and best-preserved collection of Buddhist relics 68 (date) from the 13th
to the 15th centuries. The main Mogao site is made up of 735 caves spread across 69
1,700-metre-wide cliff face, containing 45,000 square meters of murals(壁画) 70 more than
2,000 colourful sculptures.
