Baseball was everything to Walker Smallwood. But when he was just 14 years old, he got heartbreaking news
that he had a rare form of bone cancer growing in his left leg. His baseball playing came to a sudden stop as he spent
the next three years undergoing six surgeries, 24 treatments and 18 hospital stays.
The young pitcher’s leg would never be strong enough to make competitive playing an option. “At the time I
guess I was just kind of in denial, because my whole life, day in and day out, was built around baseball and sports,”
Walker said. “It was pretty disastrous,” his mom, Pam said. The most the 17-year-old would be able to do is play
catch with his teammates as they warmed up for their games.
As the team approached the final game of the season, Walker’s parents and coach agreed that he could pitch
(投球) for an inning (一局) or two for the old time’s sake.
“Say you did it, have some fun, and then that’ll be it. Obviously, that’s not what happened,” Walker said.
What ended up happening was more than anyone ever expected. Walker not only threw solid pitches in that
first inning, but he also ended up pitching a no-hitter. The coach decided to keep him in the game until he started

giving up pitches, but that never happened. Smallwood struck out all but two hitters for the entire game and tied a
school record in the process.
“I was in tears, most of the stands were in tears — just one of those special moments that we’ll cherish forever,”
mom Pam said. Smallwood may never play again. He’s actually fine with that now because who needs a World
Series ring when you’ve already taken on your greatest competitor and gone undefeated.
24.What does the word “It” underlined in paragraph 2 refer to?
A.The serious injury to his leg. B.The childhood baseball dream.
C.The risk of multiple surgeries. D.The long-term mental stress.
25.Which of the following best describes Walker Smallwood?
A.Confident and energetic. B.Ambitious and determined.
C.Brilliant and considerate. D.Optimistic and independent.
26.Why does the author mention a World Series ring in the last paragraph?
A.To emphasize the value of cherishing every moment.
B.To stress the significance of any championship prize.
C.To highlight Walker’s personal success at the game.
D.To serves as a reminder of challenges in Walker’s life.
27.What can we learn from Walker’s story?
A.Misfortune can tell us what fortune is. B.You can’t teach an old dog new tricks.
C.Constant dropping wears away a stone. D.What doesn’t kill you makes you stronger.
C
While an analysis of the Global Dietary Database for the years 1990, 2005, and 2018 found overall consumption
of sweetened drinks increased—by nearly 16% worldwide over the 28-year period studied—regional intake widely
varied, researchers say.
Sugary drinks have been widely associated with overweight and heart related diseases, which are among the
leading causes of death and years lost to disability globally. Many national guidelines recommend limiting added
sugars to less than 5% to 10% of daily calories, and because sodas (汽水) add no nutritional value, some countries tax
their consumption to help their residents meet this goal.
The study, published in Nature Communications, is the latest presentation of how adults in 185 countries drink
sugar-sweetened beverages (饮料). Intakes varied widely by world region. In 2018, the average person consumed
2.7 servings of sugary drinks per week, but this ranged from 0.7 servings per week in South Asia to 7.8 servings
per week in Latin America. And some of the highest sugary drink intakes in the world were among urban, highly
educated adults in Sub-Saharan Africa (12.4 servings per week) and in Latin America (8.5 servings per week). “We
were struck by the wide variations by world regions in 2018; that Latin America had the largest intakes at all time
points despite an overall decrease overtime; and that Sub-Saharan Africa had the greatest increases across all time
points,” says Laura Lara-Castor, a PhD candidate at Tufts University.
“These results suggest that more work is needed such as marketing regulations, food labeling, and soda taxes.”
Information from the Global Dietary Database, which gathers hundreds of survey results, also revealed a
relationship between sugary beverages and socio-economic status. “Sugar-sweetened beverage intake has increased
in the past few decades despite efforts to decrease their appeal,” says researchers. “Some populations are especially
easily affected, and our findings provide evidence to inform the need and design of national and more targeted
policies to reduce their intake worldwide.”

Three young American men were on a crowded train when they encountered a heavily armed terrorist. With
little regard for their personal safety, they rushed the terrorist and controlled him. Only some people seem capable
of this split-second form of heroism. Why some men rise to the occasion—and others don’t—has been a bit tricky to
explain. Psychologists have explored this question through biological and personality psychology.
Of course, heroism and courage can appear in many forms, and men and women risk their reputations, health,
and social standing to do what they think is right. When it comes to physically risky bravery, people assume that
men will take the lead. There are sound biological reasons for this fixed image. One of the most common fears in
men is that they’ll be outed as a coward (懦夫), and a man who fails to display physical courage will suffer damage
to his reputation in a way that a woman will not. Throughout human history, attaining a position of high status or
dominance among one’s peers (同龄人) has been the ticket that needs to get punched for men to attract mates and
father children.
People tend to have an idea of what heroes are like. When rating the personalities of movie heroes, participants
expected them to be more careful and hard-working, open to experience, agreeable, and emotionally stable than the
average person. But some studies indicate that people who exhibit heroic behavior score high on personality usually
associated with madmen: risk-taking, sensation seeking, coolness under stress, and a tendency to take over in social
situations.
The study of the relationship between personality and heroism is at an early stage. Psychologists are still at a
loss to predict in advance who will heroically step up when needed. Often, the hero is an otherwise ordinary person
who finds himself in extraordinary circumstances. Meanwhile, some individuals trained to behave heroically might
hesitate during a crisis. Future disasters will cry out for further acts of true heroism. Hopefully, the right mix of
circumstances and personalities enable courage to carry the day.
32.How is the topic introduced in the first paragraph?
A.By giving an example. B.By presenting a concept.
C.By making a comparison. D.By drawing a conclusion.
33.What do the underlined words “get punched” in paragraph 2 mean?
A.Be bought. B.Be gifted. C.Be obtained. D.Be abandoned.

34.Why is it difficult to predict who will act heroically in a crisis?
A.Heroes and ordinary people are always difficult to tell apart.
B.Heroism is a phenomenon influenced by numerous factors.
C.Unknown circumstances play a crucial role in heroic acts.
D.Individual personality is not a reliable indicator of heroism.
35.Which of the following is the best title for the text?
A.How Are Heroes Trained? B.Why Are Heroes Important?
C.Who Are the True Heroes? D.What Makes a Person Heroic?

Based on his own research at Washington University in St. Louis and other scientific studies, psychology
lecturer Bono offers the following tips for getting and staying happier in your life.
36 Looking forward to an enjoyable experience can make it all that much sweeter. Wait a couple of days
before seeing a new movie that just came out, plan your big vacation for later in the summer, and try to take time to
enjoy each bite of dessert. On the opposite, get negative tasks out of the way as quickly as possible — any delay will
only make them seem worse.
People who focus more on process than outcome tend to remain motivated in the face of setbacks. They’re
better at sticking with major challenges and prefer them over the easy route. 37 Because it celebrates rewards
that come from the work itself. Focusing only on the outcome can lead to premature burnout if things don’t go well.
38 Find an activity that allows you to get together with friends on a regular, ongoing basis. A weekly
happy hour, poker night, or TV show ensures consistency and motivation in your social interactions. People
with high-quality relationships are not only happier, but also healthier. 39
The next time you are attracted to use your phone to look through social media, look through your list of
contacts instead. 40 The happiness you get from a real connection with another person will be far greater than
any comments or likes you get on social media.
A.Anticipation itself is pleasurable.
B.Decrease unnecessary socializing.
C.Find someone to call or FaceTime.
D.This “growth mindset” helps people stay energized.
E.Facebook and Instagram often overstate how much better off others are.
F.Nothing is more important for our psychological health than high-quality friendships.
G.They recover from illnesses more quickly, live longer, and enjoy more enriched lives.

A Debate on Labour Education Week
第二节(满分 25 分)
阅读下面材料,根据其内容和所给段落开头语续写两段,使之构成一篇完整的短文。
Tom is a special child. Ever since he was little, dogs have been his greatest passion. He often growled (低吼)
and barked and sometimes moved around the house on all fours. His parents brought in a little brown female dog
named Lynn. Tom was on cloud nine. One day, this little boy, together with Lynn, was sitting quietly down by the
side of the street when suddenly a giant dog walked across him. He was a little surprised and started screaming as
loudly as he could! All of this frightened Lynn away immediately.
Tom’s parents tried to see what the chances were of Lynn coming home on her own. But five days later, there
was still no sign of Lynn. The boy didn’t just have tears streaming down his cheeks—his parents were saddened too.
The woods behind their home stretched for over 50 miles! Together with their neighbors, they searched for
over a month. But Lynn was gone. Tom’s parents wanted to choose a new puppy for him. But no dog could replace
Lynn for him.
Tom was not the same boy. He locked himself in his room. He seemed to have lost his love for dogs. He could
not focus his attention on his classes so he didn’t want to go to school. He would easily get angry with people
around him. Tom changed from a happy, smiling boy to an upset and annoying kid.
Tom’s parents wanted him to stay home and he had been studying at home ever since. His parents
accompanied him almost every day, but staying home didn’t help much. The boy’s mother worried a lot. One rainy
afternoon, she saw him staring out the window. “I miss Lynn so much. I wonder if everything is okay with her?” It
had been a long time since his beloved dog ran away, but Tom’s despair was as great as the day it happened. Days
later, Tom walked out the front door with his head down and sat by the side of the street.
注意:
1. 续写词数应为 150 左右;
2. 请按如下格式在答题卡的相应位置作答。
A huge brown dog crossed the street and stood in front of the crying boy.
Tom ran after Lynn and entered the woods.

A Debate on Labour Education Week
Our school is planning to carry out Labour Education Week, giving a rise to a heated debate among the
students. Here’s where they disagree.
Some students warmly welcome the new policy, believing it will help enhance the concept of labour, and
simultaneously acquire necessary life skills, which will benefit them all their lives. Other students don’t agree. They
think it is just a waste of time. They can learn to work naturally when they grow up. Right now they should devote
their precious time to studies.
Although both sides have valid points, I am just supportive of the new policy. Well organized, it can help us
become physically and mentally healthy. I hope every student will actively participate.
第二节
A huge brown dog crossed the street and stood in front of the crying boy. The animal barked twice and
watched Tom, tongue rolling out. It was only after a few minutes that he looked at it more closely. The four-legged
giant’s glassy eyes reminded him of hugging by the fireplace and running between the sprinklers in the backyard.
He knew the dog very well. It was Lynn!!! Tom ran to his friend and wrapped his arms tightly around her neck.
Lynn licked his cheeks and then walked to the edge of the woods.
Tom ran after Lynn and entered the woods. He lost sight of her for a moment, but luckily soon heard his friend
barking. And he finally saw it… Lynn grew up to be an adult dog and became a mother! She had three fluffy, sweet
little puppies. Tom took Lynn and her puppies home and his parents were very happy to adopt the little dogs. Tom
took good care of Lynn and her puppies. He shared his story, showing his appreciation of tiny animals. Tom made a
full recovery. He happily returned to school. His classmates visit him almost every day. Of course, they want to see
not only Tom, but also Lynn and her puppies.
